THE STORY
A tale that opens your eyes
Ona is a curious girl with a special gift: now and then she sees a glow of colours around people, animals and things. She can’t tell anyone… until one day she decides to share her secret with her grandmother. And she discovers that Grandma sees that light too, and that the two of them are «a little special». So begins a wonderful journey through the subtle, invisible world of energies.
Structured in four triads and twelve chapters, the tale takes Ona —and the reader— through the aura, the meridians and the chakras; the energy of the Earth, places of power and feng shui; minerals, healing plants and power animals; and, finally, numbers, sacred geometry, astrology and the cosmos. With simple, poetic language, beautiful illustrations, hands-on experiment activities and «Grandma’s notebook», The World of Energies opens the door to a holistic, mindful education and invites young and old to see the world with new eyes: more open, more intuitive and more connected.

THE CREATORS
About the authors
Jordi Piñero — idea & text
A historian and archaeologist born in Manresa (1963). He has published some fifteen books and numerous articles, and has designed educational activities, including for the Museum of Manresa. In his thirties he took a turn in his life and began to study ancestral knowledge —astrology, geobiology, sacred geometry, the world of symbols— eventually merging his historical expertise with a more intuitive, profound outlook. Today he leads visits to sacred and telluric sites across Catalonia.
Carolina de Pobes — illustrations
Born in Vitoria (1969), she is a graphic designer specialising in book layout, with years of experience in photography. Observant and quiet, she always carries a notebook to draw in.
