Superb general account.' Times Literary Supplement The story of the history of Western astrology begins with the philosophers of Greece in the 5th century BC. To the magic and stargazing of Egypt the Greeks added numerology, geometryand rational thought. The philosophy of Plato and later of the Stoics made astrology respectable, and by the time Ptolemy wrote his textbook the Tetrabiblos, in the second century AD, the main lines of astrological practice as it is known today had already been laid down. In future centuries astrology shifted to Islam only to return to the West in medieval times where it flourished until the shift of ideas during the Renaissance.

Shambhala: An Adventure to Find Mysteries by Joy Mondal In the hidden valleys of the Himalayas, tales whispered on the winds speak of the mythical city of Shambhala—a place of eternal peace and unparalleled beauty. For Om, a curious explorer with an insatiable appetite for the unknown, Shambhala becomes more than just a myth—it becomes an obsession. Accompanied by Boby, the love of his life and his guiding light, Om's journey takes them deep into treacherous terrains, through ancient monasteries and forgotten trails. As they unravel the clues leading to this lost city, they stumble upon a revelation far more incredible than either of them had ever imagined. But the journey to Shambhala is not without its challenges. When the skies darken and disaster strikes in the form of the devastating Kedarnath floods, Om and Boby must rely on each other and the strength of their love to survive the merciless wrath of nature. However, as they stand against the odds, the two realize that the search for Shambhala was never just about finding a city—it was about discovering the mysteries of the heart and soul, and the power of love to overcome all adversities. Hold your breath as you delve into this thrilling adventure where myth intertwines with reality, and destiny plays its cards in unpredictable ways. But remember, this story is far from over... Chapter 2 is on the horizon.

Gnosis means knowledge. But we are not referring to just any knowledge. Gnosis is knowledge which produces a great transformation in those who receive it. Knowledge capable of nothing less than waking up man and helping him to escape from the prison in which he finds himself. That is why Gnosis has been so persecuted throughout the course of history, because it is knowledge considered dangerous for the religious and political authorities who govern mankind from the shadows. Every time this religion, absolutely different from the rest, appears before man, the other religions unite to try to destroy or hide it again. Primordial Gnosis is the original Gnosis, true Gnosis, eternal Gnosis, Gnostic knowledge in its pure form. Due to multiple persecutions, Primordial Gnosis has been fragmented, distorted and hidden.
