Od niepamiętnych czasów ludzkość zwraca uwagę na koło ekliptyki, czyli na pozorną drogę Słońca na niebie. Nic dziwnego – wszak jest to miejsce, na którym styka się życie Ziemi z życiem naszego systemu słonecznego, obejmującego razem z planetami i ich księżycami nie mniej jak 37 obiektów astronomicznych. Już Sumerowie przed sześcioma tysiącami lat zauważyli, że ten otaczający nas pas życia kosmicznego składa się z dwunastu równych części nazwanych znakami zodiaku. Doświadczenie zbierane przez ludzkość w przeciągu wielu tysięcy lat wykazało, że każdy poszczególny stopień ekliptyki ma specjalne właściwości, odrębne od innych. Charakterystyki niniejsze oparte są na tych odrębnych właściwościach każdego stopnia zodiaku według pozycji Słońca. Określenia te mają jednak znaczenie dość ogólne – bowiem Słońce nie zawsze ściśle tego samego dnia znajduje się corocznie w tym samym stopniu zodiaku np. w roku przestępnym, mimo to jednak sprawdzają się w życiu zadziwiająco. Aby określić dzięki tym charakterystykom główne cechy swoje i swoich bliskich oraz możliwości rozwojowe – musimy znać jedynie dzień urodzin. Warto przestudiować wszystkie 12 znaków zodiaku, zawartych w 12 Księgach Tajemnic, aby posługując się nimi – zdumiewać bliskich i znajomych trafnością swych przepowiedni.

Wielka Szachownica. Geostrategia amerykańskiego przywództwa
Zbigniew Brzeziński
Nowe wydanie legendarnej książki Zbigniewa Brzezińskiego! Gdy tuż po zimnej wojnie kształtował się nowy porządek świata, wielu wydawało się, że historia dobiegła końca. Dominacja USA - jako jedynego supermocarstwa - miała trwać wiecznie. Poglądu tego nie podzielał jednak Zbigniew Brzeziński. Były doradca ds. bezpieczeństwa narodowego prezydenta Jimmy'ego Cartera i wybitny politolog przewidywał, że Stany Zjednoczone będą musiały walczyć o utrzymanie swojej pozycji, a kluczowa będzie rozgrywka w Eurazji. Swoje rozważania na ten temat zebrał właśnie w Wielkiej szachownicy. Dziś jego przejrzysta analiza geostrategicznych wyzwań stojących przed amerykańskim przywództwem w świecie okazuje nie tylko trafna i błyskotliwa, ale również bardzo aktualna. Co więcej - to właśnie teraz, w sytuacji otwartego konfliktu w Ukrainie oraz zaostrzającej się rywalizacji w rejonie Pacyfiku, geopolityczna rozgrywka o Eurazję wchodzi w decydującą fazę. Wielka szachownica to książka, która wyprzedziła swoje czasy. Lektura obowiązkowa dla każdego, kto choćby w minimalnym stopniu interesuje się geostrategią i geopolityką.
