Summary: not what I was looking for....
Comment: "Meticulously researched"? The book draws on a mere handful of references to wind up being partly Guadalupe history and partly eclectic self-help. I kept wishing it would be one or the other. If you're looking for something scholarly on the Virgin, try Ana Castillo's fine selection.

Summary: Must Read- The Aztec Virgin
Comment: AZTEC VIRGIN represents a bold, ambitious effort to uncover the origin, significance, power and hidden secrets of the Virgin of Guadalupe. While Aztec Virgin begins by touching upon the controversy betweeen those who view the Virgin as a tool of the Spanish conquerors and those who shudder at the mere thought of questioning her divinity, this dilemma is hardly its central point. Instead of becoming mired on the point of whether or not the Virgin truly appeared to Juan Diego, the book delves into a wealth of information to reveal, convincingly, the La Virgen owes most of its exhalted position in Mexican religion and culture not to the institution it represents-the Catholic Church- but its wholly uncatholic Aztec antecedents. Aztec Virgin takes you on a wonderously mystical and informative trip through the roots and traditions of the Aztec religion-in order to demonstrate how much these contributed to the geneology of the Virgin. Aztec Virgin also provodes an intricate dissection and analysis of the original Image of the Virgin itself.
Aztec Virgin will certainly help you discover the beautiful, mystical and spiritual significance of the Virgin of Guadalupe. Needless to say, such knowledge has the potential to be enormously empowering on a spiritual level. Yet understanding of the Virgin can be empowering on a surprizingly practical, and utilitarian level. Read the Aztec Virgin and you may uncover answers to your personal, family, career, and (believe it or not) sex problems.

Summary: A Wonderful Introduction to the Real Virgin of Guadalupe!
Comment: I want to thank John Mini for writing this beautiful book! I bumped into it by accident at the LA Latino Book Faire, as it says in the "Aztec Virgin", something drew me to this book. As I read it, my dreams became clearer- one night I envisioned, with absolute clarity, my new room ( I plan to move out soon), all in white with an open window and a soft breeze blowing a sheer white curtain. Next to the curtain was a bouquet of beautiful dark pink and red roses! Another night I felt and heard in my chest what I would call a primal scream. I also have had the nightmares and the freight that comes with them. But the most beautiful experience is the all over energy that seems to travel through my body and pierce through the crown of my head. From the time I started reading I have felt an enourmous identification and closeness to my beautiful Aztec roots, to my role as a woman and, my faith in the Virgin has exploded! I plan to visit her in Mexico City Tenochitlan this coming Spring. Once again, thank you John.
