Ancient Pact S PIRITUALLY - THEMED fiction is growing in popularity, and authors like Caryn Colgan are answering the call to meet the needs of its readers. Her book, Ancient Pact, is an intriguing and compelling story of mystery, past lives, and karma. There are mystical beings from ancient times: priestesses, goddesses, peasants, and Amazon warriors interwoven into the life of the main character, Karan Coleman. Karan is a modern-day woman whose life is filled with challenges. She has a career that seems to be spiraling out of control, and she’s having dreams of prior lifetimes—dreams which may hold the answers to her waking dilemmas. She also has been befriended by Illianna, a strange and mystical woman who wants to help her to understand the metaphysical mysteries that she is struggling with. In addition to Karan, all of Colgan’s characters are so vividly described and developed that I connected with them immediately and was drawn into each aspect of them, and the interactions between them. I found her ability to convey adventure, mystery, and an awareness of the unknown spellbinding. At the beginning of the book Colgan lists the following quotes: “All is one,” “Only a free mind knows reality,” “Reality is greater than perception,” and “Karma rules until free will changes it.” I found by the end of the book I understood how true each of these statements really are. Caryn Colgan resides in Reno, Nevada. She is an active community volunteer and an international speaker on personal and spiritual growth. She hopes that Ancient Pact will not only entertain readers but also be a catalyst for humanity to learn a better way of co-existing with other humans and with our planet. I didn’t want to put this book down and I am looking forward to her next book, Ancient Pact, Volume II: The Element of Water. |

The Lost Keys of Freemasonry H AVE you ever noticed the strange symbols on the back of a US dollar bill? Have you wondered about the origins of those symbols and how our founding fathers ever came up with them? Some of the symbols on our currency are related to the ancient Fraternity of Freemasonry. Many of the founders of our Constitution were members of that mysterious order. If you have ever wondered about this secret society, now is your chance to find out. The three works published together for the first time in this volume: The Lost Keys of Freemasonry; Freemasonry of the Ancient Egyptians; and Masonic Orders of Fraternity, will push aside the veil of the inner temple and lead you into its mysteries. Freemasonry is a spiritual philosophy with its roots in antiquity. These roots are rumored to extend back to the ancient Egyptians who were the builders of the pyramids and the sacred temples at Thebes and Luxor. Masonic Orders have been comprised of members of all faiths. The philosophy is about the spiritual journey and, yet, is attached to no specific religion. It is about the spiritual journey of the soul and the effort to defeat the negative influences that seek to overcome it and to release the magnificence of the soul’s true splendor. As you step into this book, you become the Initiate who is led through many trials to attain the various levels of self- knowledge and ultimately, enlightenment and the true knowledge of your own divine nature. The journey is fraught with perils, both of the Master’s devise and those of the Initiate’s own shortcomings. Once you read this book, you will see the world differently; hidden symbols that you barely noticed before will leap out at you, alive with meaning. This book will reveal a world of mystery that you may not have considered before. |
