Description: |
Acclaimed teacher and author Caitlin Matthews offers a fresh look at the ancient Celtic tradition of seership and how this 'bright knowledge' can guide us on our path to fulfilment |
Synopsis: |
For the ancient Celtic peoples, the mystic craft of the seer opened a portal into another realm where the everyday world and the 'otherworld' interconnect. Through their heightened awareness, the Celts were able to awaken the true perception and wisdom that the vision-poets called glefiosa: the 'bright knowledge'. A seer has total vision, perceiving the sources of life that teem within natural phenomena. The babble of a stream, the swaying of treetops in the wind, the hunting and foraging of animals are all brimful of deeper meanings to which the seer has access. Every place is rich with its ancestral memories; every moment is a window into eternity. Celtic Visions shows how this visionary wisdom can be harnessed to reveal universal truths all too readily overlooked in the modern world - above all, the underlying harmony of our lives on Earth. Detailed coverage is given to the prophetic visions of the druids, bards and seers; and their methods of communicating with the Otherworld, through auguries, omens and fairy lore, are explained in fascinating detail. A range of prayers, chants and other practices is offered, all appropriate for modern-day seekers who aspire to be seers.The Celts have bequeathed to us a shimmering bridge connecting the known with the transcendent. All around us are oracles that can guide our steps; within easy reach is the perception that will renew our wonder. For all who wish to drink from the sacred sources of insight, this book will lead you to the ancestral wells. |
