| Inspired by a page and a half in a book on angels that told of the ancient Spentas, Deborah Brooks began her inward journey, unraveling the mysteries that date back to antiquity, to one of the last of the unreadable languages called Cuneiform that
further told of the Spentas. And through the cooperation of the University of Pennsylvania, Department of Archaeology, Babylonian Section, Deborah was able to have the names of each Spenta translated back into the language in which they were first conceived...Cuneiform.
Having made the return, her Spentas complete, Deborah has come to see her work as an artist, as a gift of the Divine, a power that continues to unfold itself within each new painting, and each new collection, that which inspires and touches the soul. And, if it is true as Marislio Ficino, the great soul teacher of the Renaissance has said..."That a renaissance person, as a type, is someone who by virtue of inner sensitivity to image sees a relativeness among all things," then certainly Deborah Brooks, not only a gifted artist, is indeed such a person. |
The Sacred Angels of the Magi

"There is a remarkable inscription carved on black jasper. Its characters are still clean and sparkling, astonishingly free from damage or deterioration despite the very great age. The letters themselves are neither Sheldon or Hebrew nor Greek or Arabic nor of any people that can be discovered now or have ever existed. They are triangular, in the shape of a pyramid or a miniature obelisk and are all identical except in position and arrangement. But the resulting composite characters are extraordinarily decisive and distinct." -
1621 AD, Spanish Ambassador to Persia
"Carved on a sheer cliff, some three hundred feet high, stands a Mystical Figure surrounded in Light, and below, a King looking up at her. Above her are ancient writings called Cuneiform." - 1000 to 10,000 BC - Behistun Rock Archaeologist, Henry Rawlinson, 1853
"The carvings told the story of Seven Ancient Holy Immortals, Seven Angels of Light, Emanations from the One loving, Divine Source. They were called Spentas, meaning Sacred. Each bore a name and each bore a gift, a gift to light the way for mankind." - The Teachings of the Magi 500 BC, Mesopotamia |
| The year was 500 BC in
Babylon, in the land of Mesopotamia, that the Seven Ancient
Spentas, Emanations of Light, came to life as the first guardians
known to man, each bearing a gift to mankind. The story was
carved on stone tablets and remained unreadable for nearly
twenty-five hundred years. The language came to be known as
Cuneiform.
Inspired by the story locked within the cuneiform for nearly 3000 years, celebrated Artist Deborah Brooks set upon the task of brushing to life the seven ancient Spentas, Emanations of Light, for the first time in history. Creating each in the feminine mystique symbolizing the Goddess within all women. And once touched by the beauty and gift of this story, and by the reception of people around the world to her work, she continues to produce images of Love, the power of the Universe. |

Excerpt from the Collector's Edition Fine Art Book, The Spenta Angel Collection, by Dean Brooks:
Brushed to life by artist, Deborah Brooks, the Spenta Angels have been recreated in the feminine mystique. The Angels stand nearly seven feet high, and some in triptych form span nearly seven feet across, each bearing their Gifts as told. As Guardian Angels, their first responsibility is to love. Their second responsibility is to Protect the life and soul of Man. The third responsibility is to do for Man, the supernatural things, that we as a human cannot.
The Creator then sent his Spenta Angels down to Man, to be seen not, but to simply wait. To wait to be wished for and believed in. Where their presence was wished for by Man, they would be. Where there was a Gift of Light, there could be no darkness. Where there was the Gift of Wisdom, there could be no ignorance. Where there is Delight in Beauty, there could only be the face of God. Where there was Truth, there could be no mistrust. Where there was Love, there could be no hate, no fear, for where Love is, all other things are not.
And so the Spenta Angels came into being, serving as pure incarnates of the Gifts of the great Creator. The key to unlock the Spenta Angels' Gifts is in the power of believing. You must Wish for and Believe, for it is in the Heart where it is first begun, and in your Thoughts where all is done. |
