Isle of Avalon: Sacred Mysteries of Arthur and Glastonbury Tor (Llewellyn's Celtic Wisdom Series)

Journey to a mystical sacred site which resonates with the human heart, mind, and body to open a gateway to another dimension - the legendary island of Avalon. "The Isle of Avalon" fully describes all aspects of this fabled place of power in Glastonbury, England, exploring its incredible physical and sacred topography (pictured in numerous photographs), mythology, geomancy, history, and unique spiritual properties. This is the first book to provide a coherent context in which to understand all of Avalon’s many mysteries. Nicholas Mann convincingly argues that features including the St. Michael Ley Line, the Glastonbury Zodiac, Tor Maze, and the sacred geometry of Glastonbury Abbey are congruent, meaningful expressions of an ancient cosmology centered around Avalon’s most remarkable quality: its ongoing function as a spiritual and physical point of entry to the Otherworld.
