Astrology. The Library of Esoterica (Taschen)

From the beginning of human history, individuals across cultures and belief systems have looked to the sky for meaning. The movement of celestial bodies and their relation to our human lives has been the central tenant of astrology for thousands of years. The practice has both inspired reverence and worship, and deepened our understanding of ourselves and the world around us.

While modern-day horoscopes may be the most familiar form of astrological knowledge, their lineage reaches back to ancient Mesopotamia. As author Andrea Richards recounts in Astrology, the second volume in TASCHEN’s Library of Esoterica series, astronomy and astrology were once sister sciences: the King’s Chamber of the Great Pyramid at Giza was built to align with constellations, Persian scholars oversaw some of the first observatories, and even Galileo cast horoscopes for the Medicis. But with the Enlightenment and the birth of exact science, the practice moved to places where mystery was still permitted, inspiring literature, art, and psychology, and influenced artists and thinkers such as Goethe, Byron, and Blake. Later movements like the Theosophists and the New Agers, would thrust the practice into the mainstream.

Edited by Jessica Hundley, this vibrant visual history of Western astrology is the first ever compendium of its kind, exploring the symbolic meaning behind more than 400 images, from Egyptian temples and illuminated manuscripts to contemporary art from across the globe. Works by artists from Alphonese Mucha and Hilma af Klint to Arpita Singh and Manzel Bowman are sequenced to mirror the spin of the planets and the wheel of the zodiac. With wisdom from new interviews with astrologers like Robert Hand, Jessica Lanyadoo, and Mecca Woods, Astrology celebrates the stars and their mysterious influence on our everyday lives.

Perfect Personal Item , travel Size Bagpack!
Color: Black, Color: Black
I’m so happy with this travel backpack!! Roomy and you can pack a pair of shoes also underneath. I recently went on a Cruise and had to fly into Florida coming from California, two different climates. I easily pulled off my sweats and shoes and slipped into a pair shorts and swimsuit and flip flops at the airport , because I had it all and 2 of my 3-1-1 bags etc. Another great feature is the see thru zip compartments ! Endless pockets and this bag is consider that “Personal Item” that stows under the seat in front of you. Quality is great and it’s a beautiful bag! Price , amazing Value!

Nice personal item for travel
Color: Black
I recently used this bag on my cruise. It fits perfectly under the seat for a personal item. The quality is nice and the bag is spacious to back many items. The only thing I didn’t like is that I kept having to adjust the straps due to them coming loose.

Hidden Gem!
Color: Desert
Huge and suitcase like on the inside. The zipper is the same color as the backpack and looks luxurious. Very soft and cushy even with heavy stuff in it. Like a laptop. Which there is a specific place for it that is cushioned. But my favorite by far is the clear pockets on the inside. I like that you can see what your getting out of your bag and where to find what. Also the outside pockets are really useful! And kinda incognito which is great for if you want to put valuables there. You can use this for travel, school and work. It's very versatile. Very good for organization. Comgortable and easygoing. Quality is 5/5.
