Signs for a Messiah provides an intimate portrait of the historical Jesus and at the end of the era his birth stars heralded claims finally to unlock the mystery of what the Magi (astrologers) knew. The book's data radically develops theories about Christ's birth first propounded by astronomers Ferrari D'Occhieppo and David Hughes and in detail and precision they go far beyond anything yet attempted in this line. The numerous descriptive proofs for the author's claims, many establishing exactitudes against all statistical probability include both the usual and lesser known factors of standard astrology such as the asteroids and Arabic Parts. The pattern revealed, which takes account not just of astronomy/astrology but historical, theological and psychological perspectives, works not just for Jesus' life but Jesus issues to this day. And because it does it will be easier to understand how Da Vinci Codes accounts of Jesus are presently thriving and also why they are so dramatically wrong.
The Mountain Astrologer, the magazine that set the standard for astrology gives Signs for a Messiah the green light with a very favorable review of Signs for a Messiah (Dec 2004/Jan 2005 edition).
Signs for a Messiah was published by Hazard Press, New Zealand Dec. 2003. ISBN: 1877270377. It is also available on Amazon
UPDATE 2011: Signs for a Messiah has been much superseded by the researches presented in Testament of the Magi. Because the later's material on especially asteroids and Parts is greatly enlarged (440 asteroids as opposed to the 40 of Signs) while the traditional chart analysis of astrology is reduced, the book is more accessible to non astrologers. Some copies of Signs are still available on Amazon, but I had to learn through a magazine editor in New Zealand that Hazard Press went into liquidation. This occurred without my being informed (I was working overseas at the time) and I have never since been able to get the publisher to contact or correspond with me about the situation. Similarly I have not been able to get Amazon to withdraw the book in a situation where it is not possible for me to receive royalties on the work. Effectively though Signs is now O.P.
