Robin S. Baker
“The moon has major influence over us. Each phase represents new energy that we’re able to utilize in our personal lives.”
Robin S. Baker

Patrick Harpur
“Throughout their lives W.B. Yeats and C.G. Jung sought out precedents for, and affinities with, their visionary — their daimonic — standpoints. Between them they uncovered and studied just about every major proponent of our tradition. This is not surprising, because it is a feature of the tradition that it threads together all who discover it, to form a series of historical links. The alchemists called it the Aurea Catena, the Golden Chain; and to grasp one link is to be connected to all the others.”
Patrick Harpur, Daimonic Reality: A Field Guide to the Otherworld
