With common sense and good humor, Richard Olsen examines both the "outer journeys" and the "inner journeys", making clear throughout that the middle third of peoples' lives--the thirties, forties and fifties--is not the time to bemoan the past but rather to celebrate all that is around us. Olsen points out how readers can use the maturity of midlife to strengthen their personal relationships, maintain and increase their health, and reevaluate their vocational and career goals.

Midlife Is Not a Crisis combines astrology, inspiration, and wisdom about aging to empower people to live more fully in the second half of life. It is based on the generational life cycles we all share at certain ages, from the Saturn Return at 29 and Midlife, which peaks at 42, all the way to the Uranus Return at 84. These cycles are the great crossroads of life, and each cycle is a journey in itself. Strung together they offer a road map to life's most challenging and rewarding passages. In every decade there are trials, lessons, and losses; in this we have no choice. Our freedom lies in how we respond#8212consciously or unconsciously, awake or asleep. The planet that governs each cycle acts as a wise elder or guide and holds the key to navigating the cycle successfully. This book tells the story of these cycles and provides a guide to living consciously and well. We are aging differently from the way we did in the past#8212we are not only living longer, we are staying healthy and vital longer as well. Midlife Is Not a Crisis motivates people to grow and prosper at any age. Ultimately it is a practical guidebook for our later years that shows us what to expect as we age and helps us make the most of our journey to becoming whole.

One moment your school-age son is engaged in a house sale, and everything is serene on a Sunday afternoon in the suburbs. The next morning, you awaken to a 6am phone call from a policeman, who tells you that a childless great-uncle has jumped from the roof, leaving your phone number for notification purposes. Shortly after that, you learn that your best friends are getting a divorce, and you don't know what to tell your children. Midlife brings chaos, laughter and tears. You find women in their 40's having 'last chance' babies, and many people changing careers while they still can. Couples, meanwhile, are fighting about whether to stay together, and many women who have been home are trying to jump-start their careers. Boyfriends, girlfriends, and 'last chance' affairs complicate matters even more. The author takes you with her on a search for order, trying to find patterns in the chaos, travelling the routes of the past, examining the lives of baby-boomer friends, while renewing an earlier commitment to journalism, which had lapsed during a ten-year stint in the business world.

The first in-depth analysis of how an individual's natal horoscope reveals the unique challenges and opportunities of midlife. Between the ages of thirty-seven and forty-one, something mysterious takes place within the psyche. Jung called this phase our "unlived life," assuming rightly that midlife did not inaugurate a time of rapid decay, loss of libido, and inevitable death—but rather ushered in a period in which one might review one's life and build upon a strong foundation toward the next phase of adulthood. Acclaimed astrologer Erin Sullivan takes us through the vast changes that astrology reveals as we reach middle age. It is a moment in life that is characterized by the planet Uranus, one filled with opportunities to both rethink the past and move forward toward the future, "witnessing" our lives in the way Uranus connotes. There exist no maps of the terrain—except the natal horoscope.

The book follows the structure of the Spiritual Exercises, commenting on major themes in what Ignatius calls the First Week, the Second Week, the Third Week, and the Fourth Week, ending with the Contemplation for Attaining Love. It engages the audience by introducing fresh reflections on the Principle and Foundation (to be read in the context of late medieval marriage vows), and by using, at length, several episodes in the Gospel stories (e.g. the nativity of Christ, the call to service of Peter’s mother-in-law, the particular approaches of the evangelists to Christ’s passion and death, and the place of Ch. 21 in John’s theology of love) to show how contemporary biblical interpretation enriches possibilities for prayer. Resources for prayer are drawn from Christian painting, sculpture, music, literature (e.g., Pascal and Kierkegaard) and poetry. The author explores links between the Exercises and the traditional practice of lectio divina. In doing this, he illustrates the scope of teaching on lectio divina coming from the Second Vatican Council and shows how translators and commentators have missed the Council’s use of the technical term lectio divina.
