Soul-Sick Nation: an Astrologer's View of America

Jessica Murray's book is now available for purchase at Google checkout.


For anyone dismayed by the current state of the world, Soul-Sick Nation provides a visionary perspective as extraordinary as the times we are living in. Using the principles of ancient wisdom to make sense of the current global situation, this book invites us to look at the USA from the biggest possible picture: that of cosmic meaning. With a rare blend of compassion, humor and fearless taboo-busting, Soul-Sick Nation reveals America's noble potential without sentiment and diagnoses its neuroses without delusion, shedding new light on troubling issues that the pundits and culture wars inflame but leave painfully unresolved: the WTC bombings, the war in Iraq, Islamic jihad, media propaganda, consumerism and the American Dream. This keenly intelligent book elucidates the meaning of an epoch in distress, and proposes a path towards healing-of the country and of its individual citizens. This book will leave you shorn of illusions and full of hope.

Reviews of Soul-Sick Nation

What people are saying:

 

"Soul-Sick Nation: An Astrologer's View of America is a brilliant analysis of the crisis confronting America and all Americans. I urge people to read this book and gain a cosmic perspective on the ingredients in our collective nation's soul."

~Caroline Myss, author of Entering the Castle, Anatomy of the Spirit, and The Sacred Contract of America

 

"One of the most important books you may ever read."

~Gary P. Caton, in The Mountain Astrologer Magazine

 

"Jessica Murray ... a choice-centered, psychospiritually-oriented astrologer, has quietly made a real difference in the lives of her clients, one at a time. In Soul Sick Nation, she applies exactly those same skills to understanding America as a whole. Starting from the premise that the United States is currently a troubled adolescent, she applies an unflinching gaze to reach an ultimately compassionate conclusion about how we can heal ourselves and grow up."

~Steven Forrest, author of The Inner Sky,
The Changing Sky and Skymates

 

"[W]hat Jessica writes ... is so well written, so well laid out, with very small sections - pithy, meaty, meaningful paragraphs, easy to absorb, full of information - with headings in each chapter that address specific issues and the conditions in which all of us now live. ... Ms. Murray ... introduces her topic slowly and instructively in the first four chapters, using her comfortable understanding of collective/individual psycho synthesis... The book strikes deep chords of truth without actually becoming condemnatory nor polemical ... it isn't about blame ... the USA and its leader/s are part of an even greater whole, the epoch itself."

~Erin Sullivan, author of Saturn in Transit and Retrograde Planets

 

"Jessica Murray's new book on America is as smart ... as they come. Her depth of psychological understanding, combined with an astute awareness of current social and cultural events, makes it relevant; and her wry sense of humor and scathing critical eye make it an energizing read. Pluto and Saturn have never made more sense!"

~Vicki Noble, author of Motherpeace, Shakti Woman, and The Double Goddess

"Jessica Murray's Soul-Sick Nation raises the symbol-system of astrology to the level of a finely-honed tool for the critical work of social insight and commentary. ... Just breathtaking!"

~Raye Robertson, author of Culture, Media and the
Collective Mind

 

 

"Jessica Murray's take on what's wrong with America...reads a little like an astrological version of... Michael Moore, including a wonderful sense of wit, ironic contrast, and literate outlook."

~John Townley, AstroCocktail.com
