Synopsis

Following her separation from Rudolph Valentino in August 1925, Natacha Rambova entered a lesser-known chapter of her life; one immersed in spiritualism, occult study and her close association with the enigmatic psychic, George Wehner. Though Wehner remained Rambova's constant companion until 1930, his role has long been reduced to a footnote. Astral Affairs Rambova restores this overlooked relationship to its proper context, examining both the man and the extraordinary claims surrounding him. At the center of this account is Wehner's infamous séance, held with Rambova just days before Valentino's death, in which he reportedly foretold the tragedy. His later written account of this event is presented here in full. Valentino and Rambova authority Evelyn Zumaya Floris presents this material in a fully illustrated edition featuring approximately eighty images, alongside three significant contemporary texts: George Wehner's The Valentino Death Prophecy (Mystic Science Magazine), Talbot Mundy's introduction to A Curious Life, by George Wehner Herb Howe's Her Years as Valentino's Wife (The New Movie Magazine). Astral Affairs Rambova offers a rare and provocative examination of the intersection between grief, belief, and the enduring mythos of Rudolph Valentino.
