Saturn

Saturn is a fully descriptive narrative of life on our great-ringed planet. For those who may have followed the work of the great magus Franz Bardon as concerns The Practice of Magical Evocation, Lorber's Saturn provides invaluable information regarding the nature of the Saturnian sphere. One of the true lost Books of Moses.

About the author

Jakob Lorber (22 July 1800 – 24 August 1864) was a Christian mystic and visionary from the Duchy of Styria, who promoted liberal Universalism. He referred to himself as "God's scribe". He wrote that on 15 March 1840 he began hearing an 'inner voice' from the region of his heart and thereafter transcribed what it said. By the time of his death 24 years later he had written manuscripts equivalent to more than 10,000 pages in print.

His writings were published posthumously as amounting to a "New Revelation", and the contemporary "Lorber movement" forms one of the major neo-revelationist sects, mostly active in German-speaking Europe, although part of Lorber's writings have also been translated into more than 20 languages (according to the website of the Lorber Publisher) and the world-wide spread adherents do not gather in an institutionalized church, but usually continue to belong to their previous Christian denomination.

Jakob Lorber’s books are always enlightening and humbling, and I found Saturn to be no different. In addition to my deep respect for Lorber’s work and being interested in the concept of life on other planets, I’ll admit that my own zodiac sign only further motivated me to read the book (I’m a Capricorn, whose ruling planet happens to be Saturn ;)). Much like the Bible, it starts with a description of the planet, its plants, animals and its (correspondingly giant!) human beings. It really paints an amazing, mind-boggling picture of Saturnian life, and in some ways may even resonate with some traits Capricorns may have (although, of course, not limited to Caps, seeing as we can collectively relate to certain attributes regardless of our respective signs). Lorber books are all the more enjoyable in that it always feels bittersweet when it’s ‘over,’ but then there’s always the perpetual feeling of awe to subdue that. ;)
