He was educated at the University of Leeds (B.A. honours, Philosophy and Psychology) and the California Institute of Integral Studies (CIIS) in San Francisco (M.A., Ph.D., Philosophy and Religion). He is the author of four books––The Archetypal Cosmos, Discovering Eris, The Rebirth of the Hero, and Archetypal Reflections––and the co-editor of Jung on Astrology (Routledge, 2017). The founder and a former editor of Archai: The Journal of Archetypal Cosmology, Keiron now serves as senior editorial advisor.

He also teaches in the Philosophy, Cosmology, and Consciousness program at CIIS and for Grof Transpersonal Training.

'The radically expanded cosmological perspective that Keiron Le Grice has set out in The Archetypal Cosmos reflects a paradigm shift of enormous relevance for the future of psychology and psychotherapy. Le Grice has performed an invaluable service in carefully thinking through and articulating a spiritually informed view of the cosmos that integrates these developments … A lucid and groundbreaking synthesis.' — Stanislav Grof, author of Psychology of the Future and When the Impossible Happens'Le Grice has a gift, perhaps even a genius, for extremely clear assessments, expositions, and formulations of complex ideas -- all grounded in a deeper vision of things, which makes this clarity possible.'-- Richard Tarnas, author of The Passion of the Western Mind and Cosmos and Psyche'Keiron Le Grice's book is a fantastic achievement, combining complex theories from leading figures in psychology and the physical sciences -- especially Carl Jung, Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, and David Bohm. Le Grice's original synthesis demonstrates how profoundly these figures belong together in a new unified world view. With both the excellence of the writing and the high-powered nature of the ideas, The Archetypal Cosmos is destined to be an essential element in the contemporary planetary canon.'-- Brian Swimme, Professor of Cosmology, California Institute of Integral Studies'Humanity has much to gain from this synthesis between planetary cycles and the dynamics and patterns of human experience.'--Ruth Parnell, Nexus, April/May 2011.'The book takes the reader on an epic journey through many contrasting landscapes of thought.'The book is a brilliant synthesis of new ideas, and readers will have to decide for themselves whether the argument is ultimately compelling. It is certainly stated in a comprehensive manner.'--David Lorimer, Scientific Medical Network Review, Summer 2011'This is a book of considerable importance and relevance to the times we live in; for what it does is to bridge and overcome the longstanding historic gap between inner and outer worlds, thereby demolishing the West's Cartesian dualism in all its aspects. No mean thing, to put it lightly; and in doing this it heralds a new age which its author believes has already begun.'Keiron Le Grice's The Archetypal Cosmos has an immense amount to offer, having given this reviewer much food for thought.'--Jack Herbert, Temenos Academy
