SYNOPSIS:

THE WITCH QUEEN OF THE ORIENT SUN By Elisabetta Errani Emaldi BRIEF OVERVIEW OF STORY Elisabetta Errani Emaldi (Elizabeth) is an attractive 39 year old woman, who works on board cruise ships as a shop manager and supervisor. All her life, like her mother Rosina, she has had premonitory dreams (premonitions), but they can’t talk about them within the family because Primo, her father, is sceptical. After the death of her father, Elizabeth begins to dream about him and realizes that in ‘Spirit’ he is no longer sceptical, and through her dreams he helps prepare Elizabeth to face her own future…. a future that, unless a miracle happens, will become a tragic future for her because due to a degenerative myopia that has caused two holes at the centre of her retina, she will eventually lose the job she loves so much; and, in time, will more than likely eventually go blind! On March 1991, after receiving messages from her father in two dreams inviting her to prepare for an upcoming voyage on a ship leaving for the Orient, Elizabeth, readies herself. Her father makes her understand that she will still experience serious health problems, but reassures her that he will always be around her and through Spirit’s help will cure her with the help of an Indian prince. Her father makes it clear that her experiences on the ship will become her own life’s “odyssey”; and that, through her, so many other people will be helped. Although dogged by her own illness and the numerous dramas and fated dangers and disasters aboard the ship among crew and passengers, her drive, determination and passions help her overcome all obstacles. Elizabeth’s dreams and premonitions provide her with the “insights” she will need to avert the dangers to be faced… and through her dreams, her wisdom and love, so many others also find their own inner peace. When in a dream, she is caught in a rainfall and doesn’t get wet, Elizabeth sees this as a further sign of reassurance from her father and the spirit world. She then understands she will be able to accept all difficulties with a renewed wisdom amid the trials and tribulations of emotional and sometimes harrowing voyages of dramas involving storms, dreams, ancient beliefs, the mafia; and within all this, so many loves and lives lost and found. And so the “Witch Queen of the Orient Sun” sails on…. to face her own destiny.
