BIO Anne Baring

Anne Baring 1931 – (MA Oxon, PH.D. (hons) in Wisdom Studies, Ubiquity University 2018) was educated in England, France and America. Widely travelled in her twenties to India and countries further East, in 1961 she published The One Work: A Journey Towards the Self. She then became a dress designer with her own shop in London for twelve years. Entering Jungian Analysis for several years, she was invited to train as a Jungian analyst and practised in London for twenty years.

She is the author and co-author of 9 books including, with Jules Cashford, The Myth of the Goddess; Evolution of an Image 1992); with Andrew Harvey, The Mystic Vision (1995) and The Divine Feminine (1996); and with Dr Scilla Elworthy, Soul Power: An Agenda for a Conscious Humanity (2009). In 2013, she published The Dream of the Cosmos: a Quest for the Soul, up-dated and re-printed in 2020. Her book for children, The Birds Who Flew Beyond Time, first published in 1993 and reprinted in 2004, was based on the Sufi text, The Conference of the Birds, and was illustrated by the late Thetis Blacker.

In July 2023, she published a book of her mother’s channeled Messages, received between 1948 and 1968. In April 2025 she published her final book, Divine Wisdom and The Holy Spirit: The Forgotten Feminine Face of God. Invited to lecture and teach by Ubiquity University in 2018, she gave several Courses for them between 2018 and 2020 as well as many webinars. The ground of all her work is a deep interest in history as well as the spiritual, mythological, shamanic and artistic traditions of different cultures. Her work is devoted to the recognition that we live in an ensouled world and to the restoration of the lost sense of communion between us and the invisible dimension of the Cosmos that is the source and ground of all that we call ‘life’.

She lives in the UK near Winchester with her husband, artist Robin Baring, close to her daughter and grandson. Her two wide-ranging websites include a playlist of over 100 talks and interviews on YouTube and the audio recordings of The Dream of the Cosmos and her latest book about The Forgotten Feminine Face of God. All her work is devoted to the affirmation of a new vision of reality and the issues facing us at this crucial time of choice.
