How to use the ancianet art of Vedic astrology to find your path
through life's complex challenges. The Vedas call astrology the eye
by which man can see and understand. The author systematically
unties the knots of the complex science of Vedic astrology, and
presents it in a very simple and lucid manner. Astrology began when
man looked up at the sky for answers to questions about life,
himself and people he knew. He found the knowledge he was looking
for in the universe around him, a wisdom that reached its pinnacle
in the Vedic age. This one-of-its-kind book not only makes Vedic
astrology easy, it also shows you how to use it yourself. The
knowledge of the ancient Vedas can now be yours to use when life
throws up complex challenges
The Celtic Book of the Dead is a 42-card oracle based on the
ancient Irish story of the Voyage of Maelduin, given here in a new
translation by Caitlin Matthews. The locations of Maelduin's voyage
form the route toward the Blessed Isles that lie west of Ireland;
for him, and for the reader, each island reveals the wonders and
challenges as he sails nearer to the heart of the Celtic
Otherworld. As with the Egyptian Book of the Dead, this oracle
gives the soul opportunities to purify, clarify, and refocus.
Filled with wonders, terrors, and transformational experiences,
each island represents a staging post on the reader's own voyage to
self-discovery. As the islands reveal gifts that can be resources
for the human condition, so too, solutions and strategies for
unknotting life's tangles may be found. The cards have three uses:
to divine the path ahead as a guide to the soul's direction, as a
way of meditation for personal and environmental healing, and as a
Book of the Dead for the dying. This oracle offers a grown-up
method of divination and meditation, based on an ancient
northwestern European tradition.
