Summary

Here on Earth, seas roar and winds blow; volcanoes erupt and storms rage; earthquakes rip apart continents and blizzards freeze wherever they tread. Nature?furious and powerful?is all around us. Out in space, planets orbit the sun; each emitting a unique frequency; galaxies expand and black holes contract; comets rush across the night while constellations paint darkened skies. These forces of nature and the Greek gods are one in the same. The Olympians are the planets and moons, shooting stars, and asteroids?up there?out there?above us. Other Greek figures are the blowing winds, raining clouds, crackling rocks, and flowing seas?down here?near us?within us. The planetary energies and the Greek gods are above, below, and within all of mankind through biology and psychology. The Greek gods are the energies summoned during witchcraft. They?re eager to enter Wiccan Circles and neo-pagan altars; they wait patiently for their honor to be restored. The throne room of Olympus resides within our hearts, and all wishes are granted when they hold court. There is no need for marble temples and priestly robes. There is no need to recite ancient Greek or translate scrolls. All that?s needed are open minds, outstretched arms, and willing hearts?the Greek gods will do the rest.

Author Biography

What are my qualifications for writing books that are destined to be burned in Christian fires? Stated simply, I am an author, a bartender, and a ne'er-do-well. I have lived my life as an iconoclast. I have knelt underneath many steeples and I have been removed from many pews. I have preached sermons and I have been run out of churches. I have been cussed out by preachers and I have been called a holy man by atheists. The god of the Bible is dead to me, but the gods of Olympus are active in my life. Yes, I am a heretic and an idolater. I am my own judge. I am my own god. I am Keith Nicholson.
