' fascinating spiritual adventure...reminds us that our existence is more mysterious than any of us have dared to believe' James Redfield, author of The Celestine Prophecy

In The Eagle and the Rose Rosemary Altea describes her journey into the spirit world through her Spirit Guide, an American Apache Indian. Grey Eagle taught 'his Rose' to use her astonishing power to heal, astral-travel and rescue souls lost on the after-journey. Here, too, are many case histories that illustrate Rosemary's remarkable talents- a woman decapitated in a car crash relives her traumatic death in Rosemary's body in order to adapt to life in the hereafter; a prominent scientist achieves a breakthrough with help from his dead grandfather; a tragic boating accident is predicted by Rosemary on a live radio show months before it happens.

Behind all these moving communications is the quiet, reassuring figure of Rosemary Altea, succoured by the wisdom and constancy of her mentor Grey Eagle. 'We are all souls and must trust each other with kindness,' he says, emphasizing the true message of The Eagle and the Rose- we are not human beings having a spiritual experience, but spiritual beings having a human experience.

Reviews for The Eagle And The Rose

A moving account by renowned English medium Altea of her life, her preternatural gifts, and the meaning that she sees in these for herself and others. From earliest childhood, Altea heard strange voices and saw terrifying faces at night. Lonely and rejected by her unhappily married parents, who often beat her, she was haunted by the fear that she was mad. She grew up in poor health with the one desire to pass as a normal person. Even this was finally denied her when, toward the end of her own disastrous marriage, she came into contact with Spiritualists in 1980 and learned to develop rather than resist her psychic powers. The turning point came in her first encounter with Grey Eagle, her Apache spirit guide. Altea recounts many fascinating stories of contact with the dead that seem to defy ordinary understanding. She explains that in a trance the medium vacates her body so that it can be used by a spiritual entity. The purpose is not only to console the living but also to help the departed, who somehow need to communicate and, in extreme cases, to relive and accept their actual death experience, as in the case of a woman who had been buried alive. Although Altea reproduces many of the stock themes of Spiritualist literature and sometimes lapses into moralizing, her true contribution here is the heroic story of her own blossoming into life and establishing centers where people can receive spiritual and psychic healings. The author's simplicity and patent sincerity will warm the hearts of readers who reserve judgment on Spiritualist phenomena. (Kirkus Reviews)
