Phenomenology of life develops an essential transformation of the positioning of life, human being, soul and life horizons. Human soul reflects the passions of the earth and of the skies. There are two directions characteristic for the soul – upward and downward. Life horizons are closely connected with life forms, styles of living. It has been described in rather different cultures including post-modern culture. This paper deals with A.-T. Tymieniecka’s ideas about the New Enlightenment and critique of too narrow an explanation of human subjectivity and body and discusses the need for balance between soul’s directions and decreasing of materialistic, consumerism life form, orientations to primitive feeling of the world and Cosmos.
