If you’re interested in history, European history, dialects, or just never want to stop learning then this is a must buy; particularly as John Michael Greer’s writing is not the normal textbook language where you feel like this could easily replace your Ambien to knock you for a good night’s sleep. His talent from writing over forty books and being an award winning author is evident in his strong writing style, sentence structure and all that boring stuff people who give out awards care about. What I as a reader and someone whose background in the Irish culture care about is the accuracy and sound of the knowledge he’s trying to impart on a new generation who doesn’t have the familiarity with this long dormant language. On that aspect I can happily attest that his extreme attention to detail and the plethora of research he plowed through has proven his time well spent. Greer makes you want to know about the people who once used Coelbren the way I’m using these letters. How did it evolve, why was it used, what it sounded like and so forth. He provides examples for you to try out how the letters sound which adds this sense of logic and understanding to the work. As you dive through the letter’s images, meanings and symbolism you get a sense of the type of people who used it; you’re able to be transported back to a long ago age when communication still meant something as an art form and not a right to be fought over. I loved the section on meditation because too often people think it is the sole property of the Eastern cultures but others adapted it as well for philosophical and theological reasons. Greer even provides some instructions on how to do it properly in order to achieve more positive results. Hopefully by the time you are done reading his incredibly breathtaking study you will have gained a greater appreciation for the people, the history, and Welsh the culture. sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica
Devised by a famous Welsh poet, the Bardic alphabet called Coelbren has always seemed to hold great promise. But as long as nobody knew how to use the system for divination, it remained simply a relic of a bygone era. In The Coelbren Alphabet, John Michael Greer reveals the secrets of this esoteric alphabet, restoring the Coelbren to its rightful place as a powerful magical tool. Unlike the Ogham or runes, the Coelbren letters take their meaning directly from the sounds they represent. Providing the name, Welsh keyword, meaning, symbolism, pronunciation, and divinatory interpretation of each letter, this book shows how to use this unique system for divination and magic. You will also discover sample readings, scrying and meditation techniques, and tips for making your own Coelbren set. Writing systems have been used for magical power and mystical insight in spiritual traditions throughout history. This book shows how to engage in an effective divinatory practice with an alphabet that is mysterious in its origins but undeniable in its power. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
