I have read her nonsense. It is the work of an amateur. She wholesale copies from Gerald Massey and Martin Larson. They wrote before the discovery of the DSS and before carbon dating. She ignores the fact that many of their ideas are incompatible with modern discoveries.
Her views in Biblical astrology are stolen from Massey. Where Masey is correct she is correct. Where Massey is wrong, she is wrong.
My book is light years beyond anything she wrote or anyone else wrote. If you peeked at the introduction and Table of Contents of my book you would know it.
One of the problems of Biblical astrology is the era of its writing. There is no one era which conforms to the astrological settings. Acharya S, like Massey ignores the simple idea, 'what did they believe and when did they believe it."
I give a detailed structure of every constellation and its representation. Acharya S does not know what she is writing about. I know, I have challenged her knowledge on her own forum until I was banned from it for pointing out the problems with her plagarism.
I laughed at her book. It makes her and Biblical astrology look stupid.
I have numerous unique ideas in my book about Biblical astrology construction and even how the Bible was formed and when it was written. I also have unique connections with gods and patriarchs. Theses are things you develope when you understand your materiial and not just borrow from other authors.
For instance Acharya S claims Joshua stopping the sun in the sky was the summer solstice. Why? Because Massey said it was. She has no other reasoning for it. The fact it is, it has nothing to do with the summer solstice. What it has to do with is a supernova lighting up the ancient sky, forming a "night time sun." This is recorded both by NASA and in comparative myth. When you spend time to map out the Bible stories across the constellations (another unique thing I did) you know the place in the sky where the events happen. The story of Joshua stopping the sun is at that spot.
You will kick Acharya S to the curb after my book.
