The author and Adept archaeo-astronomer John McHugh returns to InnerVerse to reveal more of the Celestial Code of scriptural miracle stories. In this episode John will take us through the innumerable iterations of a sacred square in the heavens, as it morphs through mythologies and becomes the Garden of Eden, the River Oceanus, the Ark (boat and box), and the sacred tablet of Al Qu'ran. All that and some Easter insights too!
