STARCHILD I & II

In 2000 I published 'Starchild: a Re-Discovery of Stellar Wisdom'. It had taken ten years to write and encapsulated all I'd learned on the path to and beyond Initiation into the Mysteries - it was a catharsis of all the jumbled and fragmentary magical and mystical information collected in the brain, purged and then drawn together to make a coherent whole. It was, I thought at the time - either through arrogance or ignorance - my Magnum Opus. Sixteen years later I have put the finishing touches to' Starchild II: Lights of the Veil', which demonstrates that the path of the Initiate is never ending in terms of learning. Starchild II does not render Starchild I obsolete - it is an extension of that original understanding, an affirmation. The first book was created out of the wisdom of the ancient world and while the second emerged from more recent discoveries, it has revealed how our mystical roots have sprung from different strains of the same panspermiac seed. The past sixteen years have seen tremendous breakthroughs in science, archaeology and astronomy and have merely strengthened the belief that mankind's true quest for knowledge, wisdom and understanding still lies along the Path of the Initiate. Starchild II uses the old stellar-wisdom to pull all the various esoteric threads together and examine them under a spiritual microscope. Panspermia was an idea of great antiquity, implying that the seeds of life are inherent in the Universe ... we can now see how it also carries all the magic and mystery of the stars. Melusine Draco
