About
Embark on an epic journey of discovery through the myths, scriptures and sacred stories of our planet -- and the evidence that they are virtually all based upon a common system of celestial metaphor. Star Myths of the World was designed with two main goals: 1) to provide abundant evidence using literally hundreds of myths from around the world which demonstrate beyond a reasonable doubt that the sacred traditions of humanity all share a celestial foundation, and . . . 2) to teach you the reader how this ancient system works and how to recognize the language of the stars in the myths, building your "vocabulary" and "grammar" as you go along, so that you can eventually analyze Star Myths on your own. Using a unique format, in which the myths are presented in the first half of the book, and the star charts and celestial analysis are found in the second half of the book, you will learn how to perceive and interpret the distinctive patterns of celestial clues for yourself. The discussion and details presented build in complexity as you go along, so you that learn a few building blocks at a time and then learn how to see them in a variety of different mythological disguises and combinations. The evidence presented in Star Myths of the World revolutionizes the conventional understanding of "comparative religion" and mythology, and proves that the myths of humanity -- whether from the Aborigine cultures of Australia or the New Testament of the Bible, whether from Greek mythology or the Kich'e Maya of Central America, whether from ancient China or the Maori of Aotearoa -- all share a common foundation. Armed with this understanding, you will be able to dive even more deeply into the myths and sacred stories of humanity in newly rewarding ways, on your own.
