All the same, I am so impressed with this book, the range of time and cutures covered is really engaging and unintentionally invites a fun connect-the-dots game that most people interested a book like this will likely recognize and want to play around with too. This book is everything I've been looking for over the past 10 years and I finally found it. Gratefully So much knowledge here to be shared with those who are willing to learn.

Wow, I haven't been able to put this down in days! So it's really fun on top of obviously being very useful. I would have loved to hear the Aboriginal Australians divination Stone stories, just a little synopsis of each one would have been super cool because I'm having trouble finding that information (seems strange to have such trouble with the whole Internet existing, but I did attempt it and failed) and am not as knowledgeable about this as I'd like to be. While this book could have gone into a little more detail on some of the symbols, its an excellent starting point with many references to the works one may consult next for a deeper dive.

And what student of the occulted & mystical doesn't love a good book-hopping session when in pursuit of gnosis? The media could not be loaded.
