The Tree of Visions brilliantly traces the lineage of thought and practice of western esotericism. Winding throughout our history and within many cultures, this book illumines our desire and quest to be fully human, fully planetary and fully alive. It beginning with paleolithic and neolithic age shamanism, and follows its development in the sacred-magical traditions of ancient Mesopotamia, Egypt and Greece to the present day. Written by visual artist, astrologer and ritual magician David Nez, the book shows that shamanism forms the deepest stratum of human culture, myths and spiritual practices worldwide. Nez illustrates how these ancient beliefs and practices are still alive, albeit in new forms, in contemporary magic, neopaganism and neoshamanism. Multiple excerpts and references from authorities in the fields of history, archaeology, ethnology, neuropsychology, psychology, comparative mythology and other fields support this work. The book has several illustrations and an extensive bibliography.
