When we started Hierogamous Enterprises in June, 1989, desktop publishing was already one of our long range goals. Hierogamous comes from the Greek: hiero- meaning holy or sacred or and -gamous meaning having to do with union or marriage. Together it means two opposites coming together into a new thing greater than the sum of its parts, like Heaven and Earth combining into everything or the H and the E of Hierogamous Enterprises coming together to form a cross. HE Helps temporary services one of the enterprises, but it wasn't until late 1999 that we finally finished writing Hierogamous Hymns , our first book and the first edition did not actually get printed until January 2000, providentially the year of the Great Jubilee! Since then we have published many more books in a variety of genre.
