ISBN: 9780863155666 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 234 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. The relationship between the human soul and the stars has been central to the spiritual and esoteric traditions of Western thought, and many other cultures, for thousands of years.

This book explores ideas, beliefs, and practices which meet at the boundary of psychology and cosmology, the universe, and human imagination. This book addresses this special relationship from a variety of challenging and...

Heavenly Discourses
ISBN: 9781907767074 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 410 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Life on Earth would not exist without the brilliant objects we see in it; we would not be here without the light and heat of the Sun, and the rhythmic, tidal, biologically-vital, influences of the Moon. From earliest recorded history and in all societies the stars and planets, indeed the entire sky, have been a source of meaning for human affairs. In many cultures the heavenly bodies speak to humanity and, often, humanity talks back. Sometimes the stars speak for themselves as divine entities. In much western art and literature they become metaphors, underpinning narratives - and...
