Book Description

Release Date: Jun 16 2005
Bestselling author, spiritual medium, and healer Rosemary Altea introduces a fascinating system of soul typing that reveals the dynamics of attraction.

Which energy group do you belong to--the strategic and grounded earth signs, passive and charming air signs, compromising yet unstoppable water signs, the ever-changing emotional fire signs, or the destructive dark sign, sulfur? Are you a strong-willed, emotionally driven, perfectionist Retrospective soul? A vivacious, radiant, quick-witted Bright Star soul? A thrill-seeking, romantic but fickle Traveler soul? What about your mate? Once readers learn the science behind soul typing, they will enjoy "typing" their friends, family, and even celebrities to better understand why some people seem so happy, others at war with themselves, and--the most fun--who belongs together.

Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

Imagine a new system of finding people with whom you could be compatible, or who at least understand the nature of your interpersonal dynamic. Based on information channeled from her spirit guide Grey Eagle, spiritual medium Altea (The Eagle and the Rose) has written such a system based on "Soul Signs" or energy groups: Fire, Earth, Air, Water and Sulphur. Although the first four sound similar to the cardinal associations of astrology, Altea firmly asserts that astrological and soul sign typing are different. For example, her mother is an Aquarian, but fire is her soul type. Fire souls are driven by passion; earth by a need to plan and strategize; air by a passive and calming energy flow; and water by a need to evaluate and compromise. The fifth group, sulphur, is a total departure from astrological ideas, as sulphur souls are driven by evil. Within each of the five energy groups there are subsets based on type of energy flow (introvert, central and extrovert), which is not the same as a personality type whom we might consider as introverted or extroverted. These subsets have evocative labels such as Retrospective, Visionary, Peacemaker, Newborn, Bright Star, Warrior Soul, etc. All members of the sulphur sign are considered Dark Souls. Since soul signs, unlike astrological signs, lack an obvious date marker, Altea gives numerous explanations and variations to help readers determine their soul sign and subset throughout. The book's chief merit is in provoking new ways of contemplating the human psyche.

It was just a little more than five years ago that the subject of soul signs first came up, and the moment Grey Eagle mentioned it to me, I was fascinated. Read the first page

3.0 out of 5 stars Interesting Read Mar 7 2009
By K.O.
Format:Paperback
The soul type categories introduced in this book are based on earth elements and are not related to the Zodiac. Reading the descriptions, I could definitely see people who fit in the different categories. However when I tried to pin mine down or my family with the correct type - it took me a few days of re-reading them and even after that, I switched my selections a couple of times. At the end I wasn't really sure if I made the right decision. I like the theory, but if it is difficult to pinpoint and you get the wrong one - then the entire application of the knowledge will be misplaced.

4.0 out of 5 stars Insightful May 30 2004
By A Customer
Format:Hardcover
People are always looking for new ways to categorize themselves and others, whether it be by Jungian archetypes or astrology. The author of Soul Signs has created her own via the guidance of her spirit Grey Eagle and her own 20-odd years of observation of the human psyche. Although you may not take her word as gospel, she has developed an interesting system of "typing" people. There are 13 spiritual "types" in her system.

I myself am having a difficult time deciding which of the 13 "soul types" I am, so the book is perhaps not as helpful to me as it could have been. Also controversial is the idea that there is a very small minority of souls who are truly evil, not just disturbed. The author opines that there are people who born "dark souls" who are here just to revel in the hurt they cause others and for which there is no redemption.

If you can accurately choose your own type from the descriptions, then you'll be able to choose your most compatible soul mates from several charts included with the book. Good luck.

4.0 out of 5 stars I Am The Seeker! Aug 28 2005
By Rocky - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
This book is very interesting, I was always curious in what I read on the back of the book, wondering how accurate the book actually could be. And I must say, even though at first I didn't know what I could be since she leaves the discovery to your own knowledge, I found this book to be endlessly fascinating. I did though skim through most of her words about other things, such as her own sign and how it affected her and the others around her, because that was not why I bought the book I just wanted to know who I was.

Yet if you skim through most of her talking and get to the main point of the book of finding out about all the personalities of the soul signs, it gets to be a great reading. It took me awhile to figure myself out, but if you just read the signs more carefully, and just think about yourself a little more, you'll realize one of the signs just hitting you.

I don't know if it was true for everyone else, but I found my zodical element, which is water, also being in my soul sign. I am a Seeker soul- wise, but I am also in the zodiac a Cancer. I wonder if others found themselves finding their soul sign in the same element as their zodiac sign like I did. I found that interesting. Yet I know I am the Seeker, and even the first time I read through the book I knew I found myself being linked to water still just like in my zodiac sign.

I think this is a cool form of thought, to think our soul has an actual sign alone is interesting. I say I believe it, since the Seeker soul sounds so much like myself. I would say this is a good addition to the library of astrology lovers such as I. If you love astrology, I recommend this as well.

4.0 out of 5 stars wonderful primer - interesting concept Nov 8 2004
By Liza Gilbert - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
Altea's grasp of the elements as a key to personality is quite well developed and easy to read. Her interpretations of the kinds of personality in each element are also quite well illustrated. Many people interested in metaphysics, the paranormal, or astrology will not agree with Altea's grouping of all difficult or harmful people as being "sulfur" in element, but it is a convenient concept that will, perhaps, not bother many. This is an essential book for anyone who sees the importance of elements or wants to study elementary (or complex) astrology or magic. Very well written and highly entertaining. Also, quite fun for discussing among friends or coworkers.
