What reading level is The Gospel in the Stars Or Prmeval Astronomy book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And so Can-cer means Rest secured — the object of desire at length reached, com- passed, possessed, and inalienably held. Hence also the chief star in this sign is named Acu- bens, the sheltering, the place of retirement, the good rest. Hence also other names in this sign {Mdalafih and Al Himarein) mean assembled thousands, the kids or lambs ; whilst 322 THE GOSPEL IN THE STARS.
the whole is called in Hebrew, Arabic, and Syriac by a name which signifies holding, possessing, retaining. It is the... sign of the saints' everlasting rest, in which the head of the Serpent is beneath their feet, as under the feet of this Crab.
And what we thus find in the sign itself is further illustrated and fully corroborated in its accompanying Decans.
Ursa Minor. The first of these is what is now called Ursa Minor, the Lesser Bear. But this was not its original name ; nor is it a bear at all. Those who figure it as a bear are obliged to give it a long uplifted tail, such as no bear ever had. And what is very astonishing, on the supposition that we here have to do with the form of a bear, is, that the most remark- able star in this constellation, and the most observed and rested on by man in all the heavens, is located far out on this unnatural tail.
