“the book has excellent sources in their bibliography for further research.. everything is well documented. they make comparison to other goddesses and give great background and periphery information. this book get five stars out of five stars.” S. Cranow, Amazon Reviewer
“this is a must get title along with sophia, goddess of wisdom, bride of christ, on the wings of shekhnah. as a historian, one presumes we have no idea what the shekinah glory as found in the bible is. this show the lack of understanding of the modern man of the cloth when it comes to how the early church taught, what the early jews believed.” R.K. Sprau, Amazon Reviewer
” a book definitely worth reading! the vast knowledge of the authors of the material they discuss is brought in easy manner – but while reading you will not only get an understanding of the evolution of sophia, but some interesting insights in kabalistic thinking as well.” Lotus, Amazon Reviewer
“i have always been very devoted to shekinah and it’s great to see an author present the hebraic/kabballistic goddess in such a “glorious light!”” Nancy Chandler Pittman, Amazon Reviewer
“all christians should read this and discover that the holy spirit dove has a very long life and history. it is a book i will keep to be used in thought when i am writing. it is very much worthwhile in my library.” Sharon G. Miller, Amazon Reviewer
Sorita d'Este is an author, researcher and publisher who manifests her knowledge and passion for the Mysteries through her work. Her research and writing pushes at the boundaries of Western Esoterica and beyond, often questioning and challenging the status quo and inspiring others towards experiential mysticism with firm foundations built on lessons learned from history, standing positively in today and looking with enthusiasm towards the future. She passionately believes that it is possible to manifest creativity, positivity, love and enchantment through the creation of independent, free-thinking and more spiritual communities, with firm foundations in truth, natural balance and generosity.
When she is not writing herself, nor walking the liminal boundaries in the gaps between civilisation and the wilderness, she works as a publisher, bringing the work of others into print. David Rankine is an author, magician, esoteric researcher and scholar whose work explores the development of the Western magical traditions through the ages. He has been writing and contributing articles to a variety of publications on the subjects close to his heart since the early 1980s. These include Heka (Egyptian magic), the Qabalah, Medieval and Renaissance magic (particularly the grimoires), modern ceremonial magic, mythology and folklore.
Since 2003 he has been working with Stephen Skinner, co-writing and producing the highly acclaimed Sourceworks of Ceremonial Magic series. These books make available previously unpublished manuscripts and Grimoires of great significance to the development of modern magic, and have opened the field of study regarding the development of magick in the last thousand years. David actively promotes the propagation of rare texts and source documents, and is a member of both Societas Magica and ESSWE (European Society for the Study of Western Esotericism).
David has contributed numerous articles to esoteric publications such as The Watkins Review, Skoob Occult Review, Nuit-Isis, Celtic Dawn, Chaos International, Witchcraft & Wicca, Pagan Dawn, Talking Stick.
During the period 2002-04 he contributed around 300 articles to the D'Agostini international part-work Enhancing Your Mind Body Spirit. His contributions to this very successful worldwide publication included articles and entire sections on Crystals, Healing, Chakras, Qabalah, Shamanism, Ancient Egyptian Magick, Alchemy and Angels.
Since the early 1980s David has facilitated hundreds of workshops, lectures, and presentations throughout the UK and Europe, concentrating on the subjects he is passionate about - including the Grimoire Tradition, Qabalah, Angelic Magic, Egyptian and Celtic Mythology and spirituality.
