Inhaltsangabe

A new approach to the night sky, with superb pictorial star maps - and artworks of secret celestial alignments The Language of the Stars and Planets explores the profound meanings that humankind has attributed over the centuries to the heavenly bodies. Drawing upon a mixture of astrology, astronomy, anthropology and other strands of science both ancient and modern, the authors show the underlying spiritual and psychological perceptions behind interpretations placed upon the heavens by various cultures, including Aztec, Mayan, Mesopotamian, ancient Egyptian, Native North American, Chinese and Hindu. This unique guide also features original colour artwork showing how structures such as the Great Pyramid of Giza and Stonehenge are aligned with the stars.
