This summer, I had the opportunity of holding two substantial conversations with Volker Schendel, an astrologer and Neoplatonist based in Germany. We conducted our first interview on July 8, discussing the topics of archetypal cosmology, participatory theory, and philosophy of imagination.
Our second conversation took place on August 12—right during the total solar eclipse—and we discussed my work on Stanislav Grof’s biography. This is the most in-depth public interview I have done regarding my research on Grof’s life and work, and while I reserved the majority of stories to be discovered by readers in the written biography itself, we did explore a wide range of topics and stories that listeners drawn to Grof’s work may find of interest.
Volker is a highly skilled researcher with an expansive breadth of interests and ability to ask deep and engaging questions. His website is a rich storehouse of materials, and the page he put together for my interviews alone may be one of the largest online compilations of the work I’ve done over the last decade: Foundation for Astrology and Knowledge. I hope you enjoy the resources he has compiled, as well as our two interviews!

Hi Becca
Thank you so much for these exciting interviews!
I invited Stan several times to Switzerland between 1997 and 2004 and
have only heartwarming memories of these times together.
I also reconnected Stan with Albert Hofmann then and did this wonderful
photograph where they look at each other on the sofa in the house of Albert.
I also want to let you know that yes, Stan met Elisabeth Kübler-Ross in
1983 at the ITA conference in Davos, Switzerland.
That’s also where I met both of them the first time!
I look forward to the biography a lot!
You have such a lovely way of telling the phantastic real story of Stan!
Love,
Maya
Thank you so much for this depth illumination of you, Jung, and Wolff. I am consistently amazed at what you express so well and clearly.
I wish I had another 75 years to study it all, and had the kind of Brain/mind/consciousness that could grok (in the Bradbury pure sense) it completely.
In mind’s eye I see a gigantic awareness hovering about you which comprehends more than I could imagine when I was younger, and you articulate it so well!
These two conversation are so long and deep that I am getting transcriptions so I can absorb it in written form, and I will look at Schendel’s onine archives as well.
Thanks for all the imaginal exercise!
