Reviews
"Symbols are like signposts directing us into the realm of the subconscious and the spiritual; they are flashpoints that stir emotions and trigger deeper--even divine--connections. But they also take on lives of their own, twining across times and cultures, and Nigel Pennick has always had his finger on their pulse. The Book of Primal Signs is a veritable thesaurus of traditional symbolism, spanning from prehistory to today. This is a vital guidebook to a hidden world that is, most thankfully and wondrously, still in plain view." * Michael Moynihan, coauthor of Lords of Chaos *
"Solidly referenced and carefully illustrated, The Book of Primal Signs seems to travel everywhere and touch everything . . ." * RICHARD HEATH, author of Sacred Number and the Origins of Civilization and Sacred Number and the Lor *
"This book is highly recommended to researchers and students of the occult as an immensely valuable survey of symbols from an author with sophisticated spiritual insights and an invaluable multi-disciplinary approach to his subject. Kudos!" * Facing North, Elizabeth Hazel, July 2014 *
