Unlock the lost and hidden meanings of the world's ancient and
modern signs and symbols with the latest in the hugely popular
series of 'Element Encyclopedias'. This is the biggest A-Z
reference book on symbolic objects you'll ever find. The latest in
the popular series of 'Element Encyclopedias', this is the largest,
most definitive guide to the secret and ancient knowledge of signs
and symbols, some of which has been lost over thousands of years.
Why is the eye believed to be a powerful symbol of protection by
fishermen? Why do Masonic Temples have a black and white chequered
floor covering? Why do Hindus use coloured rice powder to draw
elaborate symbols in front of their homes, only to have these
patterns destroyed every day by footprints? What are the hidden
meanings behind the symbols on the American dollar? What is the
most important symbol in the World? Divided into easy-to-follow A-Z
themed sections, the book answers all these questions and more,
from sections on Magic and Mystery, Deities and Rituals, the Animal
and Plant Kingdom, Landscape and the Elements, to Food and Sacred
Geometry. Find out about the secret Demonic alphabet and Script of
the Magi, the Glastonbury Zodiac, the Masonic Compass, the Eye of
Horus, Native American hunting symbols, the Caduceus and the Indian
Diwali ritual. Element Encyclopedia of Secret Signs and Symbols is
a fascinating compendium of the hidden meanings behind the most
important visual symbols in the world.
