Scientific Paradigm Shifts: Toward a New Cosmology

We revisit a driving question from Episode 1: What’s the worldview that brought us to this brink, and is there another worldview emerging today that could lead to a very different and restored world? Richard Tarnas opens with the Parable of the Two Suitors, a metaphoric view of the current scientific paradigm shift. He describes how Uranus/Pluto alignments of the past 500 years have coincided with dramatic consistency with key milestones in the major revolutions and paradigm shifts in Western scientific thought that have dramatically changed our worldview and cosmology.
