* * *Guidelines for how long prayer requests stay on the list, how to word requests, how to be added to the weekly email list, how to improve the chances of your prayer being answered, and several other common questions and issues, are to be found
at the Ecosophia Prayer List FAQ.
If there are any among you who might wish to join me in a bit of
astrological timing, I pray each week for the health of all those with health problems on the list on the astrological hour of the Sun on Sundays, bearing in mind the Sun's rulerships of heart, brain, and vital energies. If this appeals to you, I invite you to join me.

Despite the various complexities of the last little while, I've been writing; more to the point, my publishers haven't been sleeping on the job. Aeon Books thus has no fewer than three new titles on their way to print, and ready for preorders. 
Second is the new edition of The Ceremony of the Grail, my exploration of the Grail legends, their roots in Gnostic tradition, their role in the genesis ot Freemasonry, and the survival of the ritual at their heart into modern times. It will be out in October; it can be preordered here, and the code for the 20% discount is COG20. 
The third is the revised edition of my wry classic Apocalypse Not. This was originally written in the runup to the great non-event of December 21, 2012, in an attempt to let at least a few people know that the whole business was simply the latest rehash of one of history's all-time bad ideas: the Apocalypse Meme, as I term it in the book. 2012 has come and gone but plenty of people remain convinced that the world has got to end sometime soon so that they don't have to deal with the consequences of their own actions. This new edition may be no more successful at reaching the true believers than the earlier version was, but it may help insulate the rest of us from that particular form of craziness. It will be out in November; it can be preordered here, and the discount code is APOCALYPSE20.
