‘Holy Parrot’ reflects humanity’s shift from the Age of Pisces to the Age of Aquarius – a transformation from authoritarian rule to an era of personal freedom, sovereignty, and humanitarianism. 


Set in a Caribbean paradise and narrated through magical realism, Mary, assisted by her parrot, reveals three keys for transitioning into self-awareness. She introduces a new prayer for our times, while Leo, an Australian scientist, endeavours to reconcile these mystical elements with scientific understanding.
