In 'Queen of the Night', author Gavin White develops a radical new theory of how prehistoric peoples of the Near East conceived of the heavens. Drawing on ancient art and design, the author elucidates the symbolism of the principal zodiac constellations, and furthermore explores the nature of the planets that weave their way around the skies. In doing so, he uncovers the basis of a perennial philosophy that lies at the very heart of ancient astrology, mythology and early religion.
