Dive into the intriguing realms of the Law of Three and the mystical 'Enneagrams' with this comprehensive guidebook.

The central concept revolves around understanding the transition of personality traits and core life objectives through the cosmic enneagram types and signs. The book skillfully presents stages, cycles, and types through philosophical concepts like Trinities, the Law of Three, and cosmic enneagram types. The aim is to help individuals better comprehend their seeking, perceptions, and attitudes towards life and even make you ponder the lessons every person and situation brings to your life.

As a reader, I appreciate the detailed exploration of cosmic enneagram types and their relevance to personal development. As a Hindu, I am familiar with astrological signs and omens, and I found this book to be a well-edited treasure trove of knowledge, spanning 197 pages. The author has successfully made typical and practical concepts more relatable, making it a valuable resource for understanding personality traits and core potentials.

Despite references to specific religions, the book maintains a non-religious tone, ensuring respect for various belief systems.

The book is well-edited, providing a wealth of knowledge on diverse concepts, and the writing style is engaging, striking a balance between theoretical concepts and practical applications. However, the lack of footnotes or citations left me feeling like I was stargazing without a guide. But hey, when you're exploring the cosmos, who needs footnotes? Right.

I will rate this book 4 out of 5. David Young has done an excellent job of simplifying complex concepts, making them easier to comprehend. The tables and diagrams used in the book are essential tools to convey difficult concepts, such as the "Cosmic enneagram types in the zodiac". These can improve one's understanding and eliminate the need for additional research.
However, if the cosmic terminologies and ideas are difficult to comprehend, it may lead to more questions than answers.
Additionally, unfamiliar readers may experience occasional confusion because of the lack of proper citations and footnotes. These issues have led me to deduct one star from my overall rating.

For readers to fully comprehend the content of this book, it is imperative to approach it patiently by taking one stride per page.

This book is highly recommended for philosophical individuals with a prior understanding of enneagrams, astronomy and zodiac signs. It is not your everyday read, so brace yourself for a cosmic joyride if you are into philosophy and star-studded revelations.
