Fun fact
Altea succeeds in offering a fresh, accessible twist on astrology that feels both mystical and practical. It excels at empowering readers with a sense of unique spiritual identity, making it a delightful addition for fans of mainstream metaphysical literature. However, those seeking rigorous astrological technicalities or academic depth will find it lacking, as it prioritizes intuitive appeal over scholarly precision. It sits comfortably in the popular New Age genre, bridging the gap between casual horoscopes and deeper soul-centered spirituality.

📝 Description: Soul Signs

Although most of us know our star sign very few of us know we have soul signs too. In this unusual and thought-provoking book Rosemary Altea shows that there are also 13 soul signs to be discovered (for example the 'newborn' the 'seeker' the 'traveller' the 'old' the 'warrior'). Soul Signs shows how to work out which one you fall into what this means for you your behaviour your relationships and indeed every aspect of your life. When Rosemary Altea's first book The Eagle and the Rose was first published it became an international bestseller selling well over half a million copies and topping charts all over the world. Her fourth book Soul Signs is hugely commercial intriguing and fun - and is the new major work by this unusual author who is every bit as remarkable as James Van Praagh and John Edwards. Praise for The Eagle and the Rose: 'A fascinating spiritual adventure. Rosemary Altea's journey of self-discovery reminds us that our existence is more mysterious than any of us have dared to believe' James Redfield author of The Celestine Prophecy'I recommend this book-. One cannot deny the importance and truth of its message.' Bernie Siegel author of Love Medicine & Miracles

💎 Expert review

💎
Esoterica Books editorial team
Occult literature desk
Altea presents an intriguing expansion of astrological theory by introducing the thirteenth soul sign, appealing to those craving more individualized insight. However, readers expecting rigorous astronomical data or academic critique will be disappointed, as this is a spiritual guide rather than a scientific text. It may also frustrate traditionalists who view the zodiac as strictly limited to twelve signs. While the framework is engaging for novices in esoteric studies, those deeply entrenched in classical astrological schools might find the approach overly simplified or unorthodox, limiting its appeal to a specific niche of spiritual seekers.

Deep and rewarding

As someone who reads a lot in this field, I can be picky. It rewards patience more than any book I've bought this year. It pairs well with more modern commentaries on the same tradition. My only regret is not ordering it sooner.
