Listening to the Stars is a series of minibooks that invites us to listen to the invisible, contemplate the essential, and reconnect with the wisdom that inhabits everyday life. Follow Ferhélin, a Brazilian physicist with a serene gaze and a sensitive soul, on her journey through the Canadian Rockies, where unexpected encounters transform her perspective on science, spirituality, nature, and humanity. Each volume is brief, poetic, and profound—a pause to breathe, reflect, and hear what lies beyond words.
Readings for those who desire to live with greater lightness, clarity, and truth.
Listening to the Stars – Series Overview
There are books that inform, others that move — and there are those that transform. Listening to the Stars is a series born from the meeting of science and spirituality, of outer landscapes and inner trails. Across sixteen minibooks, we follow Ferhélin on a journey that begins as an academic trip and unfolds as a soul’s crossing.
Ferhélin is a woman of deep listening. Born in the countryside of São Paulo, she holds a degree in Physics and a specialization in Quantum Mechanics, working as a teacher and researcher. But her quest goes beyond equations: since childhood, she has cultivated a balance between knowledge, art, spirituality, and movement. Passionate about music, literature, swimming, and hiking, she sees each experience as an opportunity for expansion and reconnection.
On the eve of turning 30, Ferhélin publishes a scientific article and receives an invitation to present her work in Canada. She accepts — and it is there, among mountains, lakes, and unexpected encounters, that she begins to live transformative experiences. A young woman with brown eyes and hair that gently falls to her shoulders, her presence conveys serenity and curiosity. Her attentive gaze and calm expression reveal a soul that listens to the world with sensitivity and depth.
Each minibook in the series shares one of these moments: dialogues with unlikely masters, silent reflections, dreams that feel real, and teachings that do not impose — they simply reveal themselves.
The series explores themes such as meditation, intuition, ecology, compassion, practical spirituality, conscious action, everyday wisdom, and even cosmic encounters. With accessible and poetic language, each volume is a pause to breathe, contemplate, and listen to the invisible. There are no ready-made formulas — only invitations. No definitive answers — only attunements.
Listening to the Stars is a work for those who wish to live with more lightness, clarity, and truth. For those who recognize that the essential does not shout — it whispers. And for those who know that sometimes, a single star is enough to illuminate the entire path.
