Some of the most remarkable discoveries relating to Earth mysteries are alignments across Britain and Europe that connect sacred sites. The greatest of these "ley lines" have both been named for Saint Michael, yet deserve to be better understood. Now researcher Mahmoud Shelton considers the implications of this mystery by focusing on the spiritual traditions of the sites bound together by these solar alignments. Ancient legends and Mithraism, Medieval history and Sufism, and the legacy of Pythagoras all figure in this exploration of what is surely among the greatest mysteries of the Western world.

Guardians of the Heart by Mahmoud Shelton is a collection of independent essays on various expressions of sacred geography. With sections focusing separately upon European and American landscapes, the collection explores the traditional safeguarding of sacred places as a general theme and the labyrinth as a recurring symbol. Guardians of the Heart confronts matters of contemporary interest, from the Klamath water crisis in California to recent archaeological discoveries in Europe, revealing their vital importance to the fate of civilization. Mahmoud Shelton is the author of Mysteries of Dune and other works rooted in traditional symbolism.
