About the Book
|
|
In a revealing
and powerful memoir, popular astrologer Janice Stork recounts her
life that started out innocently on a chicken ranch in San Diego,
California. As time went by her difficult childhood brought with
it many questions about life that sent her on a spiritual quest
that took her of all places to work for the California Legislature.
At first her job was to offer clerical support to different members'
offices in the State Capitol building. During the evenings she studied
astrology charts of key political figures in the news and saw people
who came to her for readings. By the time more than 32 years had
past, she had met with the Speaker of the Assembly behind closed
doors; touched the bullet-proof vest a legislator wore during his
recall election; sat in Committee next to California's first female
Speaker of the Assembly; and tasted the spilt blood of politics.
After 32 years had past, Janice Stork had become an accomplished
astrologer that once had astrology legislation signed into law by
Governor Ronald Reagan and was known as the "Capitol Astrologer."
Blending politics and astrology, this book covers political figures
such as former Assembly Speakers Willie L. Brown, Jr. and Jessie
(Jess) Unruh; Congressman Gary Condit, once a member of the "Gang
of Five;" former President William (Bill) Clinton; and President
George Bush.

The book is difficult to put down, if for no other reason than to search for new bits of Capitol lore.

She began her 32 year political career looking over the shoulders of legislators quietly scribbling a diary that was to become Footprints of the Capitol Astrologer. Imagaine 'West Wing' meets 'Upstairs Downstairs' but set in Sacramento. The book is peppered with political brass and is also laced with Stork's own personal saga as the mother of a son conceived by an illicit affair with a legislator.
