Math for Mystics: From the Fibonacci Sequence to Luna's Labyrinth to the Golden Section and Other Secrets of Sacred Geometry

General, but very good, because it gives us a good coverage of the subject and its fundamentals.

I am new to this subject and I am glad I read this book first. I find it to be very informative easy read for someone like me who was very intimidated by math. This book might not be as helpful to someone already familiar with this subject, but I still recommend it.

Modern mathematics as professionally practiced is too often severed from its roots in the marvelous contemplation of our life in nature. When its origins are remembered at all, the focus is usually on necessity, for example the need to measure the movement of the sun or moon for practical matters of planting or harvesting. But to our ancestors even the most practical math was also a source of wonder at the deep yet comprehensible connections within the universe. This wonder is the true beginning of magic. Renna Shesso's delightful Math for Mystics recovers both the practical and the wonderful in math with a refreshingly clear and lively writing style. The author includes numerous well-designed illustrations and diagrams that she has thoughtfully integrated with the text. Here you will find explained not only the math methods but also the associations that inform their proper magical uses. The selection of topics is excellent, from the origins of measurement to geometric solids, with many implications for numerology. Math for Mystics will be of interest to anyone curious about the living world of math or who seeks a deeper understanding of magical practice. No previous background in math is needed to access and understand this material.

When I recieved this book in the mail, I knew it would help me to better understand sacred geometry. I did not realize to what extent it would help. This book teaches the mathematics behind sacred geometry. I am planning my own sacred geometry project. In that endeavor, this book has proven priceless.
