Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 270
Book Description
The stars predict a wedding-day disaster, but San Francisco astrologer Julia Bonatti never expected murder. Julia Bonatti is alarmed by the astrological signs looming over Geneva Leary's wedding day, but nobody asked Julia's opinion and being a bridesmaid means supporting the bride no matter what. Even with the foreboding Moon-Mars-Pluto lineup in the heavens, no one's prepared for the catastrophes that strike: a no-show sister, a passed-out wedding planner, and a lethal shooting in the dead of night. With anger and grief threatening to tear the Leary family apart, Julia is determined to understand how such a terrible tragedy could have occurred. As she digs deeper into the family's secrets, her astrological insights lead her to some rather unexpected conclusions. Praise: "Di Marco crafts an intricate, twisting plot and layers on the astrological details that fans of psychic mysteries so enjoy."—Booklist

The Zodiac Conspiracy
Author: Atara
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1465379320
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 271
Book Description
The appearance of an astronomer, who was discussing the 13th constellation on national TV last year, caused a huge outcry from the public. The big question was, "How can my sun sign be different?" Many people concluded that the astronomer did not know what he was talking about! People wanted to know how their Sun sign could be different than what they had been told all these years. Actually, the astronomer was very correct; he was telling everyone the truth as indicated by the science of astronomy, which the psycholgical art of astrology is based upon. There are 13 constellations and has always been 13. This is why the book also features a section on Ophiuchus, which is the 13th constellation and the only constellation/sign named after a human being, Imhotep an African Egyptian. There has been a conspiracy of silence among Western astrologers to misrepresent the history of astrology and ignore the truth of astronomy. Since astrologers did not adhere to the science of astronomy, as dictated by the constellations, they created an alternative paradigm called the Koch zodiac system, which only acknowledges 12 constellations and therefore 12 signs. Astrologers who live in the Eastern part of the world practice the truth of astronomy by using the Sidereal zodiac system. Most people in the Western world actually believe that on January 1st their Sun sign is Capricorn. However, the truth is that the Sun is actually in the constellation of Sagittarius. This is the truth of astronomy and the sidereal zodiac system. So, if you were born on January 1st (of any year) your Real Sun Sign is Sagittarius (not Capricorn). This book shows everyone (who wants to continue believing in their old "sign", while embracing the truth of their Real Sun Sign), how to blend these two systems, so that who you REALLY ARE and what you are destined to learn about yourself, is anchored in the truth. It is a gentle reminder that you are not living your most authentic self. Are you the Virgo, Selfless Servant or Aquarius, The Giver? Read, the Zodiac Conspiracy and be introduced to the truth and Your Real Sun Sign.

In this author's opinion, the writing of a novel has to be one of the most tedious, lonely endeavors that any person can attempt, and to accomplish this task is by anyone's standards an achievement. Whether it is a great achievement remains to be seen, but at that final moment when the last few words are typed, "greatness" doesn't seem to matter. At that point it is more a sigh of relief combined with a moment of disbelief.
