Yes, this is an excellent book. But if anyone buys it, be sure to get the new edition by Lotus Press. That edition has a greenish cover, dark mountains with a blue-green sky with the Moon. This edition is much easier to read with nice heavier white paper. The first edition (Arkana) had a red cover with an Indian man on the front. The paper in that book is thin and yellowish with bleed through...very difficult to read. I believe that edition is out of print anyway, but resist the temptation to pick up a used and cheaper copy.

Guest guest Posted April 16, 2004 Report Share Posted April 16, 2004 I stand corrected about buying a used copy. I have the old one and if it starts to fall apart will get one of the new editions. ....

I ordered the new and much better reprint from http://www.internatural.com If that link doesn't come up, try typing Lotus Press into a search engine. Astroamerica.com doesn't have this book, last I checked. Neither does amazon.com unless they just got it in. Therese Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
