Just when she thinks nothing else could go wrong, a ghost from Alex’s past comes back to haunt them both, which could keep them apart forever, if someone doesn’t kill Quincy first. She’s stumbled into the clues to solve the case of the missing groom and finds a corpse as well, proving that planning a wedding can literally be murder.

Many people may not think so and probably find it even controversial and confrontational to say the least. However, when we look back into the ancient and esoteric teachings and compare them with the writings of pre- and early Christian texts, one undoubtedly finds that there is a connection between the chakras, the Christian Sacraments and the spiritual principles. This booklet examines the connection between the chakras, Sacraments and spiritual principles and the roles the play in our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual lives. The seven chakra and even the thirteen chakra system have been mentioned in pre Christian writings and were practices among other civilisations by the ancient Egyptians. The sacraments and chakras are connected to the number seven because, “the seven is the number of the God Elohim,” who symbolically created the world in seven days.
