Balthasar The Magus (Let's Go For A Walk; Book Three)

I am still in the midst of reading this book, but really want to get the review out today! Because this book is Excellent..........I do love it so much it will be hard to experience it ending! This book takes one directly into the human and mystical and divine energies of this time of the Magi. It is the personal story of Balthasar, one of the three wise men who traveled to find and greet baby Jesus (Yeshua is his actual name). It begins with Balthasar's birth, and continues on with his life story as he grew. Oh, this book is Filled with insights and realizations and remembrances that gave me goosebumps and chills several times! So much wisdom. What a Privilege to read this story, given to us from Ascended Master Kuthumi through Marisa Calvi. I Love her writing, I Love the energy and the warmth and truth I feel as I read this book. I very much Recommend this book, as well as the two that come before this one: Pharaoh Thutmose III (Let's Go For A Walk, Book One) and Pythagoras of Samos (Let's Go For A Walk, Book Two).

Once I started reading this book, I could not put it down. Wonderfully written with so much emotion and knowledge of ancient times.

I fell in love with this book and thoroughly enjoyed it.I love the magic of the Stars.

I was unfamiliar with this author so I had no background upon which to begin the book. After I finished the book, I then reread her Preface and Kuthumi’s Introduction. My question is this? How was this book channeled? I understand that Kuthumi is now incarnate inasmuch as he states his body is tired and he’s ready to make the transition to the other side. In retrospect, the Preface and Kuthumi’s Introduction made more sense AFTER I’d read the book. I'm still confused about how this was channeled if the person being channeled is still incarnate.I began reading this book and, for some reason, I could not remember what I’d read after 50 pages. I decided to reread the first 50 pages; then the book began to get interesting. I was crying during the last 50 pages. Apparently, 50 is significant for me in regard to this tale. Fifty (broken down to 5), is a number of change and this book was the story of the heralding of change.I felt as if I'd been there with Balthasar from the beginning of the tale as a boy to the winter of his years. The relationships were realistic and not at all "soap opera-like."I would like to add that the grammar, spelling, composition, and timeline of the book are impeccable. If judged as a book of fiction, it’s stellar. If judged as a book of nonfiction, it’s technically lacking. I choose to rate it as a book of fiction because I don’t remember being present during these events. Truth be told, I relate to being Roman during the height of the Empire (I’ve been crazy for Roman sandals since I was a teenager. I vividly remember begging my mother for a pair of Roman sandals that we saw at Target and my excitement at her buying them for me; but, I digress).In the end, I loved this book. It was beautifully written and I feel like I really learned something of this time period.I am now curious to read books one and two of her "Let's Go for a Walk" series. Maybe I'll find I lived during those time periods and be able to relate to them all the more.I recommend this book as definitely worth your time, especially if you love Bible stories. These three "wise men" were definitely wise, men, and possessing of human and deeply spiritual traits. This book caused me to wish our society offered schools of metaphysics to attend from pre-school through to post-graduate studies. Look to the stars, you might be amazed too!

Profound, informative and entartaining.
