Publisher's Synopsis

In this work, the author shows how we are surrounded by invisibles; forces which animals know but humans have come to ignore or only participate in unconsciously. These forces include electricity, magnetism and the deeper reaches of touch, smell, taste and sound.;Peter Redgrove presents evidence to suggest that not only individuals but the world as a whole stands to benefit from simple awareness.;Presiding over this transition from unconscious to conscious experience is the symbolic presence of the Black Goddess, who may be traced in many guises from ancient to modern times - from tantric oracles and gnostic cults to Coleridge's poetry and Surrealist painting. The book blends the poetry of "The White Goddess" with the wide-ranging applications of "Supernature" to express this general need for more awareness.;Peter Redgrove is a poet and co-author of "The Wise Wound".
