Publisher's Synopsis
An Astronaut mortally wounded during a spacewalk from a speeding outer space particle, has a sensed-presence (out-of- body) experience, in which he perceives his second-self, as a celestial Mermaid-- there with him just hovering outside the International Space Station. This otherwise somatic symptom, crosses over into the metaphysical when the 'Mermaid' visually animates and is seen by the Astronaut, submerging first her left hand into his heart, and then her whole entire mermaid body within the Astronaut's, to activate natural rapid self-healing processes. The Astronaut and Mermaid now conjoined as an ethereal presence, remain in place even after the Astronaut, in his unresponsive molecular body and heavy EVA spacewalk suit are reeled back into the airlock capsule. Together, they are in turn attracted and pulled into, and between, the Sun's own wobble-- to a virtual equilibrium point in Space, which 'locally' acts as an interstellar lens for the living life-force.'Once upon a soul' the Magical Realism story, begins with a two-part 'Parable' (Preface and Introduction) concerning the relevance of the Jupiter-Sun barycentre, with the transmutation of the 'Soul' from 'Spirit', and with respect to the creation of 'individual' consciousness versus 'cosmic' solar collective consciousness. 'Celestial Jupiter' is in turn here 'locally' implicated 'in time' with breaking this 'inclusive' law for Universe, and is celestially expunged and 'ghosted' by the Sun's own intergalactic network. Miraculously, Jupiter is 'empathically' returned from between the 'Void' and Multiverse, back into this same Universe, to co-create the 'earthy' holofractal interface for soul's 'earthy ground', whereby intergalactic beings are to molecularly integrate their own fragmented micro and macrocosmic orders of scale, through continually redemptive rebirth and ascension cycles for Source. In this story, Cleito (the Mermaid) recounts how her once human gene templates were used eons ago to seed the early Olympians, and then (she) was cursed by celestial powers into becoming a cloistered human Mermaid. Cleito further explains her own Lemurian, Atlantean era experiences, as well as impressions about today's digitally driven: 'Atlantrix'. Together, both Astronaut and Mermaid, illustrate relevant aspects between; Spirit, Soul, and Mind, collectively meant for full integration into molecularly heartfelt bodies, in order to 'witness' for 'Source'-- present-moment cosmic unity. Through Eaden (the British Space Station Astronaut), Cleito is in turn able to awaken her own second-chance at an eternally mortal human life, by the grace of unconditional love.
