Description
The Goddess Nut and the Wisdom of the Sky by Lesley Jackson is a scholarly study of the Ancient Egyptian goddess Nut, exploring her aspects as both Sky and Tree Goddess. Through meticulous research, including the latest theories and information from top Egyptologists, this book delves into the celestial goddess and her connection to the visible cosmos and the afterlife. The study examines how the Ancient Egyptians marked time with the movement of the stars, the significance of stellar alignment, and the importance of lunar cycles. It also investigates the fluid inter-relationship of the Egyptian deities and their symbolism, raising thought-provoking questions where there are no clear answers. By exploring the celestial and symbolic significance of Nut, this book offers a fascinating insight into the Ancient Egyptian worldview and their understanding of the universe.
