Gain powerful medicine for the soul that you can apply in any dark journey, especially when you’ve exhausted all other means of spiritual sustenance.
Receive crucial sacred practices and insights into the journey of releasing limiting ideas, identities, and patterns — to make space for the birth of a ‘new you.’
The dark night of the soul is the greatest ordeal — and mystery — of the authentic mystical path...
Throughout history, mystics, saints, and sages, including Rumi and Kabir, have passionately written about this most difficult human journey, first named by St. John of the Cross...
It’s a time of trial in which false ideals are shed — an initiation that can be quite painful and devastating.
It often happens AFTER a spiritual awakening and BEFORE one has become illuminated enough to embody a more evolved Self.
It can be precipitated by a death, divorce, loss of a job or home, world crisis, or profound existential questioning.
Before you experience a dark night of the soul, you may be prone to unrealistic and overly rosy views of the spiritual path, gravitating towards and enamored with love and light alone.
Yet, when you open to the darkness, something new is forged within you... a sacred identity. Emerging from the dark night, you acknowledge and face life’s hardships but are also able to see them — along with everything else — as a radiant expression of the Divine. You become more fully grounded on the Earth and more luminous, filled with higher wisdom and light.
This time in the wilderness — bereft, grieving, confused, or lost — is precisely what helps you lose your layers of falsity so you can birth the gold of an awakened life.
In short, experiencing a dark night of the soul is what frees you to fully become the YOU you were born to be.
In this profound 60-minute call with mystic teacher Andrew Harvey, you’ll gain key insights and practices to help you navigate the dark night of the soul. You’ll:
Understand the key stages of the dark night of the soul and how to approach each of them in helpful ways
Receive a practice from the Christian mystical tradition that allows you to polish the mirror of your heart for cultivating greater compassion
Discover how to embrace what’s happening when the joy and juice of your spiritual practices and mystic experiences have deserted you
Learn the practice of the Divine Name, which allows you to anchor yourself in a presence that is beyond all forms
Discover what to do with the natural resistance that your ego and identity have to the annihilation that the dark night of the soul ultimately requires
Understand why a 3-prayer practice is so essential at this time, particularly as the emotional tumult makes meditation more difficult
Discover how to lay the groundwork for your own rebirth — and take heart from understanding the beauty that awaits you on the other side
Andrew Harvey teaches us that if you don’t experience the dark night of the soul, you cannot evolve... you won't be able to rebirth yourself as a more Divine Human and your most authentic version of your Self…
... just as without the crucifixion, there can be no resurrection.
By passing through the terrible AND amazing ordeals that open you to both the darkness and the light, you can learn to focus your soul on the Divine. You can let go of the partial truths or consoling illusions that may be causing you to tread too lightly on the path.
Collectively, we are clearly passing through a dark night of the soul as a species, which means that those of us who are more sensitive, empathetic, or awake are far more likely to feel this darkness on a personal level. Unless we face it, we'll be unable to offer our greatest service.
There is perhaps no teacher in the world who knows more about how to navigate the dark night of the soul than Andrew. He’s not only one of the world’s foremost mystics, he's been brought to his knees by life’s difficulties multiple times... only to be reborn with greater strength, humility, and a profound commitment to service.
During this complimentary hour, Andrew will offer you powerful medicine you can apply when you feel lost and abandoned in the dark alleyways of your journey, as well as practices that can guide you to a safe harbor when you’ve exhausted all other means of spiritual sustenance.
You’ll also hear about the opportunity to be guided more deeply through this journey in a brand-new program especially for those who are navigating a dark night period, or wishing to understand how to help others, personally or collectively, as they undergo this painful, but ultimately redemptive and liberating process.

What People Are Saying About Andrew Harvey...
“The light he sheds is like a meteor burst...”
Every age has its teachers who keep the eternal truths alive for all of us. And when a generation is very, very lucky, it encounters a teacher so illumined that the words he delivers must be illumined as well. In the case of Andrew Harvey, the light he sheds is like a meteor burst across the inner sky.
— Marianne Williamson, Author of Everyday Grace
“Redirecting the compass of our contemporary culture”
Andrew is a genius and an inspired visionary who has the ability to interpret the meaning and significance of the chaos and patterns of change that are redirecting the compass of our contemporary culture.
— Caroline Myss, Author of Anatomy of the Spiritand Sacred Contracts
“Andrew gives us a clarion call to go beyond admiration to activation...”
When the heart explodes in conscious oneness with the Beloved, what remains is a burning desire to be a servant to the One that enlivens all sentient beings, every speck of space. Andrew gives us a clarion call to go beyond admiration to activation of that same capacity within our own hearts that we, too, may become a beneficial presence on the planet.
— Reverend Michael Bernard Beckwith, Author and founder of the Agape International Spiritual Center
“A powerful, provocative, prophetic appeal to sanity...”
Using humor, passion, and analysis, Andrew Harvey challenges us to wake up and get up off of our couches to become the spiritual activists we all can be. A powerful, provocative, prophetic appeal to sanity and activism for our apocalyptic times.
— Reverend Matthew Fox, Author of Creation Spiritualityand founder of Wisdom University
“It just might save our skins”
[Andrew] Harvey’s sacred activism is a corrective to the doomsayers and do-nothings who are part of our problems. He is a modern version of a fiery, Old Testament prophet whose words were ignored at great peril. We must attend to Andrew Harvey’s message. Not only will it help us humans regain our sanity, it just might save our skins.
— Larry Dossey, MD, Author of The Extraordinary Healing Power of Ordinary Things
