Artwork for Nadiya Shah's book, The Body and The Cosmos, 2019
The entirety of the cosmos is within us. Plato details as such in his noted dialogue Timaeus, which presents a mystical exploration of the origins of the Universe, and our intimate, individual connection to it. The Body and The Cosmos uses Plato’s work as a jumping off point, drawing astrological associations to Plato's historic philosophical articulation, going through each of the 12 signs of the zodiac. By drawing these connections, Nadiya Shah presents a work that is truly unique. At once a theoretical exploration, and simultaneously a practical guide, filled with movement suggestions and guided meditations. In this book you’ll learn how each of the 12 signs of the zodiac speak through us, body and soul, for their esoteric relevance. It is meant to be a starting point, to facilitate a deep connection to a cosmos you can feel within.
