Rating: - Astrological connections are not too convincing but still a worthy author
I am not an expert on cosmic ordering, and not many can be due it not being long in the public domain. Not being an expert in cosmic ordering does not mean I am unable to take on board what is written. Predominantly there are four authors in the top listings offering varying views on this subject. In alphabetical order they are: Andronicou, Cainer, Mohr and Richards.

The least convincing out of these four cosmic ordering authors is Cainer, although you can never completely ignore what he writes as he already has one foot in the door with his astrology connection. Maybe a little far fetched with his take up on the subject, yet you feel compelled to want to read what he says about it, and when you do then this is when you start to deconstruct with an air of scepticism what he extols. The great thing about this book is that it is so cheap to buy from the affiliate sellers on here, and that is why it is worth picking a copy up just to see for yourself why it has failed to continue with the momentum it started off with. Still worthy of a three star review simply because it is a Cainer book.

Rating: - A gentle book
I found the idea of cosmic ordering a bit freaky and I liked that Jonathan Cainer added a note of caution about it. I also liked that the book seemed to suggest asking your higher self (or guardian angel) for help. It sounded to me like it was advocating asking yourself for help and guidance, trusting yourself and thinking positively ... and to me, those only sound like good things.

Bilge, pure and simple. If you believe a word of this rot, you might be interested in the selection of bridges which I currently have for sale.

(It gets that one star because I can't give it none.)

I've read 81 pages of this book now and I'm starting to lose patience. It's not telling me anything I don't already know. It's NOT a book on Cosmic Ordering, it's some contrived stuff about 'guardian angels' and how we should ask them to serve us, how they don't judge us, how they might not always be able to help us actually and it all depends on what we ask for and how much we're prepared to do for ourselves. I've given my 2 stars because I do see a lot of truth in the book, and I feel Mr Cainer certainly knows a lot about the spiritual side of things and how the universe works, but really I don't like the presentation. I think it's a bit patronising. He's writing the book from the point of view of MY 'guardian angel'. Now how is that possible exactly? I concede that might be a useful tool to get the message across, but I think it's too unreal to make the message seem real. Also, in his own words in this very book, "Nor do you know exactly what you are supposed to be doing with your time on this planet. You don't know and nor do your fellow humans, however deep their convictions might be." I would suggest the reader take this into consideration when reading Mr Cainer's book, because he's not actually your 'guardian angel', he's another human, just like you.

As someone famous once said, 'dreams can come true, look at me babe, I'm with you'. Jonathan Cainer's book tries to set out a paradigm for re-ordering your planetary forum to do just that, make dreams come true. I have to say that I remain to be convinced. No offence, but one can't help but think that if it worked, Jonathan would be writing for something better than the Daily Mail.
