The "mysterious" Long Man of Wilmington, one of Britain's most recognizable chalk figures, sits proudly on the steep slopes of Windover Hill in East Sussex.According to the Sussex Archaeological Society, the giant, depicted as a standing human figure holding two long staves dates back to at least 1710 when the surveyor John Rowley illustrated the figure.James Neal, who looks after the figure on behalf of this charity, says it is accompanied by "a lot of mystery"."No-one really knows the true origins of the outline of the figure. Some people think that it's Neolithic, some people think that it's Iron Age, Roman, the Druids claim him for their own as well," he told Secret Sussex. Neal said the figure was originally thought by some to be "an indentation in the side of the hill".This tallies up with Rowley's drawing which suggests the original figure was a shadow or indentation, rather than a solid line.Until the 19th Century when it was marked out in yellow bricks, the Long Man was only visible in certain light conditions.

When asked why the Long Man is in this specific location, Neal says the true answer is unknown but the area does have "a strong relationship to the constellation of Orion".This enduring mystery feeds into the "spiritual undertones" which Neal says he feels characterises the entire area.Whether it was intended as a territorial marker, a religious symbol, a piece of early landscape art, or something else entirely is still unknown, and may never be.

A comprehensive guide to ibogaine’s healing power, cultural roots, and clinical potential

“A compelling call for further research into the potential of ibogaine therapy.”—Kirkus Reviews

• Explores how ibogaine works, including how it boosts cellular function,
increases neuroplasticity, and interrupts habitual behavior patterns and trauma

• Discusses the ritual roots of iboga in the Bwiti spiritual tradition of Gabon

• Shares case studies showing ibogaine’s healing effects for addiction recovery, traumatic brain injury (TBI), and Parkinson’s

Ibogaine is an alkaloid derived from the iboga plant, native to Central Africa. Its healing effects are revered within the Bwiti spiritual tradition of Gabon. International ibogaine expert Jonathan Dickinson explores how this psychedelic substance is now emerging as one of the most promising tools in neuro-regenerative medicine, addiction recovery, and treating trauma.

Grounded in fieldwork and more than 15 years of clinical observation, Dickinson shows how ibogaine interacts with the body and mind, inducing a “bicameral state” of consciousness. This is a liminal mode of being in which ancient voices, archetypes, and internal guidance systems emerge, often catalyzing a profound reorganization of memory, identity, and behavior.

He details how ibogaine boosts cellular function and shares impressive case studies to demonstrate how ibogaine has successfully treated PTSD, traumatic brain injury, Parkinson’s, neuropathic pain, and multiple sclerosis.

As a clinician scientist, Dickinson has helped a multitude of veterans with their post-traumatic mental health struggles. As a Bwiti initiate, he is able to present in this book a unique understanding and new framework for engaging with this transformational psychedelic medicine.

Jonathan Dickinson is the CEO and cofounder of Ambio Life Sciences, the world leader in integrative ibogaine treatments, and is also the founder of Terragnosis. He has more than 15 years of experience in clinical care, traditional practice, and psychedelic research. He was initiated into a Dissoumba/Fang branch of Bwiti in 2014 and the Missoko tradition in 2022. He lives in Toronto, Canada.

Sacred resonance for healing and higher consciousness by intoning the Divine Name

• Explains the healing and transformational power of intoning the Divine Name

• Teaches how to correctly intone the Divine Name through exercises and audio downloads for maximum vibrational effect

• Reveals how the sacred sound of the Divine Name can be used to promote human and planetary healing

In this book, sound healing expert Jonathan Goldman reveals the secrets of ascension harmonics and how we can learn to experience the sacred resonance of the Divine Name to reconnect to the source of all that is.

First prohibited from being spoken and then lost for nearly 2,500 years, the Divine Name of God, when vocalized, has the ability to raise consciousness, invoke spiritual transformation, heal the body, and balance and activate the subtle energy field.

Goldman shares his rediscovery of the Divine Name—the Biblical Tetragrammaton—as being a harmonically related universal sequence of vowels that is nondenominational and can be experienced by everyone. He gives a step-by-step process for effectively intoning the Divine Name with intention and prayer and offers links to 60 minutes of audio downloads that will teach you how to properly sound the Divine Name through chakra and biofield resonance.

Goldman also presents the latest research on the effects of this sacred sound on DNA and water and introduces readers to the Angel of Sacred Sound. He reveals how to integrate biofield resonance with universal spiritual teachings to access the ascension harmonics of the Divine Name and bring humankind to the next level of evolution.

Jonathan Goldman, MA, is a founding pioneer and international authority in the field of sound healing with more than 50 years of experience. He facilitates Healing Sounds Seminars throughout Europe and the United States, is the president of Spirit Music, Inc., and is the director of the Sound Healers Association. A Grammy nominee with more than 30 bestselling, award-winning recordings and books, he lives in Boulder, Colorado.

Randall's path to Kosmogonia began in 1973, when an architectural magazine called Shelter introduced him to sacred geometry while documenting a geodesic dome he and his brother Rhoen built in rural Minnesota. What started as a study of how Greek, Egyptian, and Gothic builders solved the problem of optimal interaction with the environment became a fifty-year obsession, and a parallel career as a homeschool tutor in mathematics, geometry, and geology gave him direct insight into education outside what he calls the industrial indoctrination model. The course he is launching covers practical applications most people never connect to geometry: a dodecahedron's internal angles total 6,480 degrees, exactly one quarter of the roughly 26,000-year precessional cycle of the Earth's axis, a numerical correlation between spatial and temporal patterns that Randall argues was understood by ancient cultures and is foundational to his curriculum.

A practical guide to embodying the principles of “namaste” in everyday life

“An appealing manual that offers encouraging methods for pursuing a happier and more connected life.”—Kirkus Reviews

• Defines the meaning of “namaste” and explains how to apply it in daily interactions to build stronger communities

• Offers practical strategies to develop self-awareness and compassion, foster deeper connections with others, and support mutual growth

• Includes exercises, mindfulness meditations, and svadhyaya (“self-study”) practices to deepen personal growth and understanding

Namaste is a Sanskrit greeting that means “I bow to the divine in you.” It has become a common phrase to say at the end of yoga classes, but as Jeremy Engels shows, “namaste” is more than a polite expression; it is a powerful principle for building connection and community.

Engels organizes the practice of living namaste around three reminders—“I am divine,” “you are divine,” and “live the word, together”—noting that the significance of mindfulness and yoga practice is about remembering to return to a state of awareness, presence, and connection.

The practical approach Engels offers in Living Namaste encourages self-awareness and empathy, cultivating gratitude, and treating one another with compassion to foster deeper connections and support mutual growth. Each of the three reminders is accompanied by exercises, mindfulness meditations, and svadhyaya (“self-study”) practices designed to help you apply these teachings to your daily life. By responding thoughtfully and with care to each other, rather than reactively, readers can form stronger, more supportive relationships, support each other’s well-being, and contribute to healthier communities.

Jeremy David Engels, PhD, is a cofounder and teacher at Yoga Lab, which offers science-based yoga and meditation classes that emphasize mindfulness and functional movement. He is a Liberal Arts Endowed Professor of Communication and Ethics at Penn State University and has written extensively on community-building, peace, and justice. He lives in State College, Pennsylvania.

Jan Francke: Scanning the Ancient World, with Ground Penetrating Radar

What lies beneath some of the world's most mysterious ancient sites?Dr. Jan Francke has spent more than three decades working with ground-penetrating radar (GPR) and developing technologies capable of imaging structures, geological formations, tunnels, voids, and other features hidden beneath the Earth's surface.In this episode of Earth Ancients, Jan joins Cliff Dunning to discuss the science behind GPR and its growing role in archaeology. The conversation explores radar investigations at ancient sites, including work around the Giza Plateau and Great Pyramid, as well as projects in Mexico, the Middle East, Australia, and other parts of the world.

Jan also explains an important problem surrounding ground-penetrating radar: while GPR can produce remarkable results under the right conditions, the technology can easily be misunderstood, misused, or overinterpreted. What can radar actually see underground? How deep can it penetrate? What creates an anomaly? And when does an intriguing radar image become credible evidence for a buried structure?Jan Francke is the founder of Groundradar, which develops and deploys specialized GPR systems, including long-range UltraGPR technology. He is also associated with Geolitix, a cloud-based platform for processing and interpreting GPR and other geophysical data. His career has taken him to more than 100 countries, applying geophysical technology to archaeology, geology, mineral exploration, underground void detection, and other subsurface investigations.This conversation offers a rare look at the technology increasingly being used to investigate what may remain hidden beneath some of the world's most important ancient landscapes.Learn more about Jan Francke and Groundradar:

The Origin of the Zodiac has been rediscovered in Gwynedd, North Wales.
Thousands of years older than the Babylonian and Egyptian zodiacs, perhaps even older than Gobekli Tepe, the features on the ground in North Wales actually determined the choice of stars for the constellations in the heavens above.
In rediscovering the origin of the modern constellations, so too has been rediscovered the 'cipher' connecting the history of the world we know and understand, to the pre-history world of myth and mystery.
If true, the Star Maps of Gwynedd may change everything we believe about our recent history.

Hundreds of hours of painstaking research, hieroglyph interpretation and language translation identify all the features of the present zodiac and circumpolar constellations across the land features of Gwynedd. This information is presented in maps of the ground and star maps correlated with the same in the night sky above. The myth is explained and retranslated, as are the landmarks and the corresponding astrological icons associated with each of the signs of the zodiac.

Prepare for a journey across the heavens and back in time, crossing into the world that existed before the Great Flood.

Hugh Evans studied Astrophysics at university, graduated in aeronautical engineering, subsequently qualifying as a Chartered Accountant. He now applies his scientific interest, engineering rigor and professional scrutiny to a lifelong passion for history and the stars; offering a new perspective and rediscovering the story of the ancients. Hugh has invested thousands of hours of painstaking research, site visits, hieroglyph interpretation and language translation to identify all the features of the present zodiac and circumpolar constellations across the land features of Gwynedd, North Wales. Thousands of years older than the Babylonian and Egyptian zodiacs, perhaps even older than Göbekli Tepe, the features on the ground in North Wales actually determined the choice of stars for the constellations in the heavens above. He is the author of The Origins of the Zodiac, Cadair Idris and the Star Maps of Gwynedd.
