January 23rd, 2009
Welcome to the web site of author Pete Stewart. My latest book 'The Spiritual Science of the Stars' is now available from Inner Traditions, Vermont. Click here to visit their web site "Out of this secret has emerged the whole body of philosophy concerning Being and Becoming, the relationship of humankind with the Godhead, and the beginning and end of the world ... the consequences of this secret still echo unacknowledged through all the vast architecture of our language, our institutions and our most enduring aspirations."

In this book I show how these traditions have evolved from the insights into the laws of the universe as perceived by ancient observers of the night sky Originally inspired by the seminal 'Hamlet's Mill' (Georgio de Santillana and Hertha von Dechend), the book explores the myths which tell of 'The Separation of Heaven and Earth'; What emerges is a radical new understanding of the origins of ideas about 'creation', 'eternity', 'original sin', 'reincarnation and the nature and fate of the 'immortal soul'.
"This book is a stunningly coherent story of ancient myths expressed in terms of the measuring of time ..it explains spirituality in a totally original way" (Anthony Blake, author of 'The Intelligent Enneagram" and the forthcoming "Ways of Higher Intelligence"
