Author: Pennick, Nigel & Field, Helen.

This book is about the personifications and spiritual beings that describe certain aspects of the world. From the basic structure of time, in the Three Fates, to the Divine Harmony, embodied in the Nine Muses, these spiritual forms speak to us of the powers and forces that make the world what it is. Based on the traditional cosmology that underlies Pagan, Jewish and Christian mystical thought, this book presents an integrated world view that includes Time, Space and Life. Nigel Pennick's text, augmented by new drawings by Helen Field, brings this age-old tradition into the 21st century.
