and Barnes and Noble.	Karmic Astrology: Understanding the Keys to Your Soul's Purpose Karmic Astrology is an understanding of your soul's journey through the lifetimes. An understanding of karma is essential in astrology because your birth chart, that horoscope drawn up at the exact moment and place of your birth, is in fact your karmic pattern. When you learn the language of the Cosmos, astrology, you see that all your previous lifetimes of experience are encapsulated in that one moment of time. You are a sum total now of everything we have learned and experienced. The person you are now is far more important than the person you were in any previous lifetimes because you have moved on from there, and hopefully you have grown. Some people may be excited to think that they were a famous writer or personality in a past life but, even if by a remote chance they were, they are still more important today than they were then. We move on through the lifetimes, and when we dwell too much on what we might or might not have been in past lives, this can hold us back from becoming who we are meant to be in this one. An intuitive astrologer can see, hidden within the complexities and patterns of your birth chart; who you might have been in the past and the type of person you were but, more importantly, the person you can become. People tend to associate karma with negativity: "that's your karma", "what goes around comes around", "you'll get what you deserve". In fact, Karma is the great Law of Creation which states that action and reaction is opposite and equal. In other words, it's not just the bad things we do that get results but everything - good, bad and indifferent. That is why our karmic patterns are a mixed bag and that is why we get challenges as well as opportunities; that is why we face difficulties as well as triumphs. If we never experienced very much and everything was happy all the time, we would not be learning and growing. Karmic astrology is the study of the growth and evolution of you, the soul, through the challenges and opportunities presented by your karmic pattern. However, we are not just meant to be puppets, pulled here and there by our karma, we are here learning to become more conscious and more aware so that we can understand and master our karma. For example, when we see that a difficult period is up ahead through looking at certain planetary patterns, we should try to avoid being overly anxious but instead choose to be proactive. There are many things we can do to make a potentially difficult time one in which we actually improve our lives. Karmic astrology is a tool for us to use. Self knowledge is the key. It always has been and it always will be. The more we know ourselves the more potent we can be in our service to others; and this our true destiny. Karmic Astrology is for the novice astrologer and experienced astrologer alike. It covers topics including the Cycles in Astrology, Karmic Relationships, Past Lives, the Karmic Lessons of the Sun Signs, and more. The more we understand and embrace our birth chart, the more we are empowered and fulfilled.

Mike Allen Smooth Radio 102.2 London. Great Britain In Mercury Retrograde, author Chrissie Blaze makes the enigmatic understandable. Having observed the effects of mercury retrograde in my own life over the past three decades, effecting communications, contracts, machinery and new projects, one is well advised to take Blaze's suggestions of how best to utilize, rather than be victimized, by this quarterly astronomical phenomena.

Book Review

Reviews of Power Prayer by Gary and Chrissie Blaze
Adams Media, 2003 (Foreword by Marianne Williamson)

Rose Rosetree, an internationally renowned face-reader (and much more), wrote the following review on www.amazon.com for Power Prayer. She suggested that I share it with others via my website and asked that others go to amazon and add their own reviews. It really helps with sales, so Gary and I appreciate that. Here is Rose's wonderful review:

Reviewer: Rose Rosetree "rose-rosetree dotcom" (Sterling, VA United States)

"Meditation on the Divine Self" exercise is my favorite technique from this juicy, lively book. But it's crammed with useful understandings and wise advice.

One of the most significant things about this marvelous book is how the co-authors give anecdotes about experiences with prayer-results they achieved, miracles initiated by their prayer students-yet there's never the feeling of bragging. As a lifelong reader, plus someone who worked professionally as a book reviewer for six years, I can't tell you how rare this is. Of course, if you're discerning about the tone of books, you don't need me to because you know exactly what I'm talking about.

Because I've been a fan of Chrissie's writing for a number of years, and know her personally a bit through emails, I chanced to learn that the proceeds of this remarkable book are donated to the spiritual organization for which she has served as a minister for decades, the Aetherius Society.

Trust Chrissie and Gary NOT to trumpet this fact on the jacket or make it a big deal in the promotion of the book. That speaks for their uncommon integrity, too. Many an author or publisher has bragged about giving part a book's profits to a worthy cause, using the charity (however miniscule the percentage) as a means to gain media attention and turn buyers' sales resistance into mush. Here, quietly, they're giving it all away. May this remarkable book make a million for the Aetherius Society! And may seven million dollars more come back to Chrissie and Gary!

One of my favorite parts of the Bible, in the Book of Matthew, concerns the sanctity of prayer when done directly to God, without bragging. Those who boast about their holiness and good deeds are said get their rewards on earth, not in heaven. From the behavior of many so-called Christians, you wouldn't know they'd read this central bit of scripture, would you?

But Chrissie and Gary walk their talk. Whatever your religious path, this jewel of a book can add to your crowning glory--which, contrary to conventional wisdom-is NOT your hair.

Before and after trying their prayer techniques, try reading the festival of light shining out of your body, including the crown chakra at the top of your head.

I recommend doing this because it's a real way to gauge the authentic power of this book. Using a technique for spiritual discernment-"Finding a New Church Home," in my how-to, "Aura Reading Through All Your Senses," I can tell you that results in my own aura prove unquestionably that POWER PRAYER really is powerful.

I'm so grateful for this book. If you're considering buying it, don't hesitate. May you, too, find results from this inspired, generous and wonderfully practical book.

Signed: Rose Rosetree
