Adam's Astronomy (eBook, ePUB)

The Original Zodiac

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Long before Moses wrote Genesis, the world's first astronomers invented star signs to illustrate a prophecy: a God-man would come to repair the breach between us and the Creator. Those starry figures were pirated, however, and used to advance a false religion which spread all over the world. Faithful men from Noah to the magi of the Christ child stood against that error, yet the true star signs all but vanished for millennia. Adam's Astronomy lays out the original signs, introduces the linguist who recovered them, and explains how she did it. The last chapter describes many deep sky objects whose traits--revealed by modern telescopes--illustrate the ancient message of the constellations in which they are found.

Autorenporträt

Jane Poole is presently writing the biography of Frances Rolleston, the nineteenth-century British woman whose work, Mazzaroth, inspired Jane's first book, Adam's Astronomy: The Original Zodiac. Jane's most fun writing project was The Forbidden Answer and its sequel, Secret Friends, Secret Foes, written for middle school age kids. The books are set in the contemporary Pacific NW with a bit of fantasy thrown in. They are wholesome without being overtly religious. Jane's love for the Pacific NW is evident in her blog MyRainyNW. She and her husband live on wooded acreage where she writes, paints, gardens, and sometimes entertains grandchildren. Jane's most recent book, First Son, Seventieth Son (2012), is a devotional aid for men and boys based on the lives of sons in the Bible.
