Reseña del editor:
The tradition of the seer is alive and well! Anyone can gain direct contact with the powers from which the seers drew, by learning where to find the same truths-- in dreams, in meditative ecstasies, and in communing with nature. Experts in all the ancient seer traditions combine to provide the most enlightening collection of writings ever published about receiving visions. Among the topics: precognitive dreams, incubatory sleep, co-walking, prognostication, auguries, oracles, second sight, throwing Ogham Sticks, cloud reading, the three illuminations, spells, vaticination, and divination. The greatest ancient tales that feature seers also come in for fresh analysis, including "The Raven and the Wren", "The Silver Bough", and "The Stone of Destiny". So do the great prophecies of Merlin, the poems of Suibney Geilt, the visions of MacConglinne, and the visions of Brahan the Seer.
