"Last Lovers" could be shocking at first. I don't know anybody who relates to it and speaks of it like I do. I wish I could meet William Wharton! He is a genius!
P.S .Of course he would be very old - I think in his 80. I just wonder what kind of a person he is ... in person

Fishkitten, that`s where we met for sure

I knew when I was 11 and read the book. Then I lived in Charleston S.C. from age 17-20 and finally 'lived'. Meeting St. was as familiar as the back as my hand. I spent long days in the Battery and touring the homes there. When my ex was discharged from the Navy,I cried all the way back to MI. It took years to settle back in here and feel at home again.

My dream is New Orleans; I also k-now there`s a part of me there. In the country is an old moss covered, ramshackle plantation that I will find someday to close the ache. There`s something I need to find there and when the time is right......

Rainbow, I love everything by Taylor Caldwell as well as Jess Stern`s books about her. One fav. of hers is Dialogues With the Devil.

Juniperb...I've wandered around all the old moss covered plantations I could find. I've spent lots of time in Mississippi, Alabama, and Louisiana. Even thinking about it now makes the hair on my arms stand up. Such a strong memory.

Gloomy Sag...I don't really speak any old languages so much as read them. I have no idea how most of them are supposed to be pronounced. I have spent some time becoming familiar with ancient Hebrew, Coptic, Egyptian glyphs, Summerian clay writing, etc. It is so much fun when you start to get what some things mean.

Fishkitten, I wonder if you ever found the place. All I see is it off the beaten path, lost in time and map memory. Yet, there is enough left to re-member if I saw it.

I am so fascinated by the Sumerian clay texts as well. I first saw them in Z.Sitchin`s works. One feels like if they just thought hard enough, you`d understand (re-member? ). You have the labor of love of my dreams. I would so love to hear about your trips & digs.

I wonder. Some of those old houses have really stuck with me, like I saw them yesterday. One in Mississippi had only the front facade of the house left with the big columns and huge stone steps. The rest of it was burned during the war. I could just see that house, all whole and full of light and laughter. It was like I had ridden up in a carraige just last week to attend some grand cotillion.

I do love my work. Lately I have made some changes. I haven't gone outside North America for the last two years. I have been doing research, writing documentaries, and digging up stuff that is nearby. With all the terrorism and bad feelings in the world, I'd rather just hang out here for a while. I was recently offered a dig in Jordan. It sounded really cool, but I just can't see myself going to the middle east right now.

Hey, FishKitten, my mom did archeological work for some time when I was growing up. It sounds so cool what you do! I wish I didn't have to think how to make money all the time and just travel around and help people like you in their work. How awesome is that!?!!

Mmm, how old are you, Tink ?
It is one very unconventional love story. I think that it should be tought in school - well, maybe college level

Have you read any of his other books, Moonshadow? He kinda repeats himself in them in a very annoying way.

Hi Trillian dear,
I ordered the book but didn`t receive it. Waited for it 1 month...Turned out the sender has sent it to another person. I then ordered it again, and got it a week ago. I like it, especially the Saturn part. It is exactly what I also think on the Saturn subject, and I have not read it before in the astro books. I am very glad my thoughts were confirmed with a little bit of disagreement, here and tehre, thou. I do not think that a double yummy of Saturn hard synastry aspects is worse, I think it is just the opposite - it balances the heavy energy flowing from a single hard synastry Saturn aspect. For example - Sun/Saturn double yummy square/opposition/conj in synastry is better then just having it alone from one partner to the other. I am sure about that!

hugs for you, loveliest

Gloomy Sag...that's cool that your mom used to do Archaeology. If you really like that kind of work, its never too late to start! Frankly, I'm not sure I would have ever done it without Linda Goodman. She was very right about doing what you love and not worrying about the money aspect. It all works out somehow.

Follow your dreams!

Hi Jazz,

Wow, so glad you finally received the book after all the mix-ups and waiting.

But also very glad you like it. I found it to be soooo insightful, and so easy to understand for those of us who are novices. You're far more advanced in astrology than I, so I was curious what you'd think of it.

So you're saying that hard aspects involving Saturn between two people, if they have them both ways, can be a benefit to the relationship. It's certainl crazy-glue, isn't it? Very hard to undo that glue.

I refer back to that book often, because it clarifies so many things for me.

Keep Shining, Jazz, you're a bright light!

Didn't mean to offend anybody.
If any of you guys believe you can take a very graphical love story between a 72-year-old blind lady and a 50-year-old homeless guy, go ahead and read the book. It's magical. Most people find it disturbing. I think that it is as real as it could be.

P.S. Tink, I just noticed you were from New England. I live in New England too. My Irish Catholic friends are the ones that found the book disturbing

Hmmm. sounds ... um ... interesting. But hey, I'm game.

Yup, down here in little Rhody I'm surrounded by Catholics. Mostly of the Italian variety. I even married one. God help me.

222!!??!! You've got me beat Juni.
