Produktbeschreibung
Modernity would see the Anglo-Saxon runes as historic and archaic; letters and words of a bygone era, superseded by the Roman script and Modern English language. Kennan sees the reverse to be true; that the runes comprise a system with symbolic depth and spiritual significance, which modern language and speech has generally lost contact with. Exploration of the Anglo-Saxon runes restores Old English as the foundation of Modern English; being a mythic, ecological and soulful sensibility, with rich imagery and a symbolic foundation. Letters, words and language can be more than conveyors of routine information and communication; the runes provide this, as well as a means of spiritual inquiry and magical usage that has been lost... to our modern collective detriment. Kennan's journey in medicine and psychology led him to his heritage, where a retrieved shamanic sensibility helped explore the historical and ancestral roots in his personal and professional life. In the broader Anglo-Celtic culture he discovered a perspective of the Soul that his religious upbringing had lost. The runes greatly assisted this process and gave him a creative perspective of magic and its use in everyday life, and with it an individual pathway to spiritual realisation through the restoration of the Soul.
Autorenporträt
Dr Kennan Taylor's work is with the recovery and reinstatement of the soul, individually and within our modern culture. By his degrees, qualification and experience, he is an Oxford and London-trained physiologist and medical doctor; by training and former practice, a Jungian analyst; by initiation, a Druid and shamanic healer; by decree, an ordained priest and an elder in his tradition, and by disposition, an alchemist, poet and wordsmith. His former work as a general practitioner, holistic physician, and medical psychotherapist has been a preparation for this present path. He is called to wrest from obscurity the ground between a dying religion, and a soul-less science .... volumes of knowledge and experience to be shared and dispensed to those who ask, and would listen. His landscape is now Australia, working with people and culture to forge a new identity and direction, clarifying meaning and purpose, grounded in ritual and ceremony, and the offerings that unfold; a direction encapsulated in the beating heart.
