Within the vast and wondrous universe that science reveals, Sasha Sagan—daughter of Carl Sagan and Ann Druyan—offers a gentle yet profound exploration of secular rituals and finding meaning without religion in a world beyond traditional faith.
What we often seek in religion—meaning, connection, ceremony—is quietly available in the natural rhythms of life itself: the miracle of birth, the depth of love and marriage, the turning of seasons, the grace of farewell. In this heartfelt classic, Sagan tenderly unveils how we can craft personal secular rituals rooted in awe, family, and the shared beauty of existence—celebrating our smallness on this unlikely planet while honoring the profound joy of being alive.
With the same cosmic reverence her parents brought to the stars, she illuminates a path of secular spirituality that feels both ancient and intimately modern, inviting us to weave significance from science, memory, and the quiet miracles surrounding us. Her unique perspective as Carl Sagan’s daughter lends rare authenticity to these rituals without religion, making them deeply relatable for anyone building a meaningful life grounded in reason and wonder.
Sagan's rare gift is to speak directly to the contemplative heart, making this one of the most accessible and transformative guides to finding sacredness without myth. A luminous companion for modern mystics, stargazers, and quiet seekers who long for non-religious rituals that embrace tenderness, mindfulness, and the fleeting beauty of our human story.
