ESPERANZA now in paperback - read my review -

read ESPERANZA and travel to ESPERANZA and into yourSELF

For starters, I will begin by telling you what ESPERANZA is NOT - yes, what it is NOT - now I do not ever like to begin anything with a “negative” of any kind - however, in this case, with this book, it is the only way to proceed - so here is what it is NOT:

ESPERANZA is NOT the average or typical work of fiction!
ESPERANZA is NOT the average or typical suspense novel!
ESPERANZA is NOT the average or typical thriller!
ESPERANZA is NOT the average or typical science fiction!
ESPERANZA is NOT the average or typical paranormal read!
ESPERANZA is NOT the average or typical historical novel!
ESPERANZA is NOT the average or typical mystical experience!
ESPERANZA is NOT the average or typical love story!
ESPERANZA is NOT the average or typical life after death book!
ESPERANZA is NOT the average or typical reincarnation story!
ESPERANZA is NOT the average or typical spiritual journey story!
ESPERANZA is NOT the average or typical time-travel book!
ESPERANZA is NOT the average or typical spirit world trip!
ESPERANZA is NOT the average or typical mystery!
ESPERANZA is NOT the average or typical metaphysical instructional manual!
ESPERANZA is NOT the average or typical book on spirit possession!
ESPERANZA is NOT the average or typical tourist guide book!
ESPERANZA is NOT the average or typical ghost story!
ESPERANZA is NOT the average or typical saga of the struggle between the good and evil!

ESPERANZA is ALL those things!  

IT IS ALL OF THEM! 

BUT, there is absolutely nothing whatsoever average or typical about this book!  NOTHING! 

ESPERANZA is the extraordinary tale of two strangers who meet under extraordinary circumstances in an extraordinary setting [a place in the Andes called ESPERANZA which means “hope”] and whose paths lead them on an even greater extraordinary journey - a journey filled with mysticism and adventure and love - love beyond mere physical love - a love that “transcends time and death” and an adventure into the unknown, the unlived and into a life beyond death, where the two of them hold the key to the time-old mystical battle fought among the living and the good and the bad spirit worlds -

In ESPERANZA you will meet and come to know the beautiful native people whose magnificent ancient Incan heritage is alive and well today!

In ESPERANZA you will walk the “...shadowed, cobbled streets of...this...old town...where your...eyes must adjust to the antiquity, the brilliant colors, the poverty...where your senses...don’t know which cue to follow - the scents or the colors, the touch of the past, the music that energizes the air...or...the taste of the foods...”

In ESPERANZA you will come to know in a familiar way the intriguing characters involved in this magnificent story - them and their families - you will come to think of them outside the covers of this book - you will think of them as you go about your daily routine - you will think of them!

In ESPERANZA you will not only follow Tess and Ian and Dominica and Ben on their own journeys, you will find yourself making your own personal quest into this world, the other world, and into yourSELF!

Above and beyond all, ESPERANZA is a mesmerizing tale of mystery, mysticism, adventure and love - and HOPE - in a setting you will long remember and a tale which will leave you not just wanting more, but needing more - of the work of its author, TRISH MACGREGOR!

BUTTERFLIES AND TOKENS...

late yesterday afternoon my son in texas called to say that the weirdest thing had been happening to him for some time - he is being followed by butterflies - everywhere - wherever he goes butterflies follow him - it doesn't matter if he has just bathed and changed clothes or has been outdoors all day or not at all - the butterflies simply follow him around - while he was talking, someone took photos of several of them - the three here are each a different color - there is a large purple and a large yellow and beneath and to the left of the yellow one is a smaller black butterfly - this morning when i opened my gypsywomanworld blog, there was a new follower to the blog - her icon is that of a BUTTERFLY -

from ANIMAL TOTEMS by TRISH MACGREGOR [and Millie Gemondo], we find that butterflies represent TRANSFORMATION, METAMORPHOSIS, FERTILITY and SOARING - the significance of the butterfly overall is that it is "time to release your old self and move into a new chapter of your life." - the significance in terms of family is perhaps "...a new child...but...whatever the change, it's important that you embrace it..." Spirituality and butterflies indicate that "you're on a new path now...inner guidance and intuition exceptionally strong...go within."

- all of this fits so well into place with stephen's life of late - very recently, he re-united with his oldest daughter from whom he had been separated for nearly twenty years - he says everyday that "his life has been totally changed" - that he now has "purpose and meaning to his life" - that "every day is a wonderful day - a blessing" -

and so, we see, that it is true - the story of the BUTTERFLY - the beautiful little winged angel who brings "transformation, metamorphosis, and SOARING"...INTO OUR LIVES!

in ANY event, the sad disappearance of air france flight AF447 and the 228 souls on board, brings to mind still again all those who have gone before them in similar incidents and/or who have experienced inexplicable events and have nevertheless physically survived -

for anyone at all interested in things thereof, THE FOG is the book that covers comprehensively old and NEW theories of the bermuda triangle phenomenon, including vanishing planes and/or ships, ufo's, area 51, atlantis, electromagnetic energy, electronic fog, and the short-and long-term effects of electronic fog upon individuals - it's timeliness now is unquestionable - for a clear and comprehensive examination and discussion of all the above, it is also unquestionably a MUST READ!

for those of you who may not yet have read any of the macgregors' books, [fiction and non-fiction] let me just encourage you/urge you to pick up as many of their books as you can -

their main current focus is on a new book dealing with synchronicity and all that it encompasses, but their interests and expertise include also yoga, the bermuda triangle, astrology, ufo's, etc -

while i've not yet had the opportunity to read their fiction, let me just tell you that those non-fictional books which i have read [and am currently reading] are superb - superb in their content and in their ease of reading for anyone - their research is more than comprehensive and their grasp of the subject matter is overwhelming -

while my macgregor library at the moment is limited to about five of their books, it is growing rapidly - in addition to their writing, they have developed a form of yoga which incorporates their perspective/knowledge of things metaphysical -
