"Everything that you would need to set up your own personal Maya
life path chart is included . . . . This is not just another
interesting book, it is a work in progress, and a tool that can be
used by all who wish to."

"Bear Books has once again brought a fine book to the readers. Full
of interesting insights and observations, the authors are to be
congratulated on a well-written astrology book which covers a
subject rarely seen in print. The tables make up a considerable
portion of the book and serve as a distinct guide to casting the
horoscope.
"Step-by-step, the reader is given a sound and logical explanation
of Mayan astrology. The definitions and discussion of the signs is
precise. A guide to the culture of the Mayans is given for
reference.
"Well-written. Interesting. Enjoyable."
*Lee Prosser, Ghostvillage.com, March 2007*
