“Time is the flowing Image of the Eternal … and the planets are the instruments of Time.
_PLATO, THE TIMAEUS”
“God; Eternity; the Cosmos; Time; Generation.
God maketh Eternity;
Eternity maketh the Cosmos;
The Cosmos maketh Time;
Time maketh Generation.”
This book here was rather a song sang than a book read. It chants the mystic hymns of the uni_versum, fluidly and transparently, yet sophisticatedly. Whilst flipping the pages, I felt through each as if I’m examining gems under the sunlight, praising their blinding beauty, as if I’m investigating a treasure buried deep in the belly of the turquoise ocean. The writing style was richly_detailed. How the writers adopted arguments that would possibly rise by the reader and how they refuted them was a work of excellence for me. This book has widen my horizons and awakened my slumberous side towards the divinity of the celestial kingdom, it hasn’t only flipped the cards of planets and astrology; but also demonstrated how this game is played, how each planet’s an instrument when joined with another planet (another instrument) could play a different music that can have a certain effect on our lives.
To conclude: If you want to learn about astrology, this book’s for you, however if you’re eager to learn how to employ it in your life, then it isn’t.
“but I have not learned Truth; therefore, O Lord, make plain these things to me.”
