Beschreibung
Despite its unfortunate contemporary associations with
crystal balls, tarot cards and newspaper horoscopes, there is
nothing inherently magical or superstitious about the zodiac.
It is merely a belt of constellations which straddle the
ecliptic.
Since the dawn of time man has used these constellations
and the celestial bodies to map both time and geography,
and the stories attached to these movements began to take
on mythologies across the world. The Greek gods,
Hercules, Apollo and Dionysus are all examples of these
solar entities.
This book explores the astrotheological origins of the
Ancient Mediterranean and Near Eastern faiths; Mithraism,
Judaism and Christianity. It aims to show how these sisterfaiths
all sought salvation through the celestial bodies, and
adopted the astral stories of their ancestors as the
fundamental basis of their religion.
