The book consists of fourteen “contemplations,” each of which describes a vision or revelation received by Ibn Arabi while on a spiritual journey. These visions are connected to the rising of different stars, symbolizing the unveiling of new spiritual truths. The text explores fundamental concepts of Islamic mysticism, such as the nature of divine existence, the relationship between the divine and the human, and the stages of spiritual ascension.
