Poems of the Zodiac

Readers who have a feeling for astrology will find the poems in this collection lively, charming, and perspicacious! Joanna Nealon has written two Sunsign poems for each of the twelve constellations, one, a dignified archetype, and the other, a humorous stereotype. Though the sub-title of the book is "Sirius" Fun, suggesting a light-hearted approach, the poems are set against the shimmering backdrop of a meaningful cosmos. "Astrology is an echo of an ancient high wisdom, the divining of super-sensible realities which underlie the universe." This wisdom indicates that horoscopes are not imposed on us from without, but that we choose them before our birth, as an expression of who we are at any given stage of our evolution. In short, a Ram wants to be a Ram!
