Exciting new books coming!

Firstly, my apologies for yet another delay in posting – but as you will see, it will be worth it! And in future you’ll see more regular posts again. The reason was simple: since late July I haven’t stopped moving. In fact, my August month-end Google Maps report congratulated me on visiting 48 different locations and 7 different States that month, and since then I’ve visited another 4 States. That represents a LOT of talks given, meetings attended, rituals performed and books signed, in States whose attitude to our current emergency situation has varied from ‘show us your Covid vaccination certificate and ID before you can do anything’, to ‘what’s Covid?’

One of the highlights of the past few months has undoubtedly been passing my DELF B1 French Exam! I took it in May, having studied for several months, and going through the examinations in the Institut Français in New York in late May. I was delighted (if a little surprised) to pass with flying colors. A shout-out to my young French teacher Noëmi, based in the North of France, for helping me with my spoken French and grammar, and also to the App iTalki for making that possible. As I mentioned before, B1 is required to be able to live in France, since they expect you to be able to handle all everyday situations (seems logical to me…). After a pause, I will start studying for B2, which is the level required to attend university in France.

But in the meantime, I have been focusing on books.

In November I hope to see Rose Circle Publications issue 3 new books, one by me and two by fellow authors. One is the third in the series of translations of Rémi Boyer’s Ways of Awakening series, this time focusing on Elias Artista, ‘patron saint’ of the Rosicrucians, and the Rose-Croix, expertly translated as before by Michael Sanborn. The second will be a second book in the Renaissance Man & Mason series by me, called Enlightenment Man & Mason. The third will be an extraordinary reissue of The Most Holy Trinosophia, the first full version since Manley P. Hall’s black 7 white version back in the 1930s, but this time with an all-new translation, a new theory, and featuring restored, full-color images of all the pages in the original manuscript with kind permission of the Archives of Troyes and the cultural department of the French Government. This is by Michael Osborn, an English author, from whom we can expect much in the future!

Each book will be subject to its own post as they become available. We hope you will find them interesting, thought-provoking, and to the practitioner, useful!

Finally, I had to share a photograph I took on the train while on my way down to Washington DC the other week. While not strictly relevant to this post, it is extraordinary enough to share… and that is sunset, not a fire!
