The title of this book, The Triple Witching Hour, is a Wall Street
term for the end of the financial quarter. It has nothing to do
with broomsticks and is unknown outside of the Street. In his third
book of essays, Roell starts, appropriately enough, with an
analysis of Occupy Wall Street, a short-lived protest movement
which was brutally suppressed. This book will tell you why OWS
failed and why astrology is essential for planning protest
movements, or, for that matter, weddings and children, though you
won't find them in this book. Roell then takes off the gloves. In
an extraordinary bare-knuckle essay, Astrology Under Our Feet,
Roell proves astrology does not fall from an empty sky, but is
generated by the earth itself. We are soaked in astrology, from
birth to death. Why the hostility from science? Roell finds the
origins of modern science in the French Renaissance, which produced
an Enlightenment that was a consensus dictat. It was based on a
simplistic "science" vs: "superstition," which was formed at the
very outset. In reality the Enlightenment was a clash between rich
city vs: poor rural, bookish vs: hand-me-down. The Enlightenment
amounts to city folk who do not know where milk comes from. Roell
declares science to be a series of consensus-based fads. Over the
long run, he says, as much quirky as correct. Proof? Roell says to
read old science journals. Roell then sketches a new world with
astrology, most particularly a new medicine, based on solid
astrological analysis, rather than scientific guesswork. Roell
declares astrology, like engineering but unlike science, to be
based upon fundamental realities and is therefore permanent and
unchanging. Along the way in this book, he adds lots of celebrity
and political riff-raff for your amusement, a masterful tour de
force of astrology at work. Enjoy
