A new naked-eye cosmology, establishing priorities which reflect the natural order of things (such as the Sun being the active center of our local universe). A unique book, an intelligent and surprising exploration of humankind’s relationship to the sky and stars, which not only re-discovers the ancient basis of astrology, but also stirs up many important aspects of humankind’s past and future.

Disclaimer [2019 revised 2021]

Over the years, I have come to realise a couple of things about my book Sky Knowledge. While I was simply seeking out and justifying essential human ideas related to a human-centered cosmology (by way of ancient/prehistoric philosophy and naked-eye astronomy), some readers may be fascinated by what could be seen as a new form of astrology. There may arise implications and misunderstandings regarding this. For me, this was a rather uncertain path of honest discovery – but with little doubt, a system of astrology based on the facts & ideas in the book is as powerful, meaningful and practical as those of the past, if not more so.

People often hope to discover something magical in what can appear as a cold universe. But, experience has shown that whatever system of “magic” we lend our attention and energy to, powers conscious or unconscious may be revealed within the outlines of that system, that may lead us to ignore, or be confused about, both mundane matters and matters pertaining to our ultimate Reality. This is, to my mind, a serious error. And I must therefore respectfully distance myself completely from that aspect of the work, and encourage readers to search more deeply.

2.1 Language for the World

Possibly the most natural artificial language ever invented. With an eyes-wide-open journey through basic linguistics and phonology, the creation of a new language is described in this book. It is Sgai (commonly known as SIGIL), with its ingenious a priori grammar, extendable vocabulary and beautiful script. The implications of the result are far-reaching, and this book is a unique and important contribution to the study of languages generally. 122 pages – download the PDF for just AUD 10.00 – AVAILABLE NOW.
