by Brian Molyneaux (Author)
From the Earth mysteries of the Celts to the modern concept of Gaia (which redefines the planet's biosphere as a self-regulating system), this book traces connections within the broad tradition that perceives the Earth as a reservoir of energy of spiritual power. Topics covered include dragon pathways, feng shui, the Tree of Life, dowsing, geomancy, stone circles, pyramids and other ancient remains, together with religious beliefs relating to the landscape, from the sacred springs of the classical world to Australian Aboriginal ideas of the Dreamtime. The reference section includes a directory of natural phenomena, and profiles of Earth-centred gods and goddesses.
