When a loved one dies, most of us assume the door to communication
with that person has closed. Yet, in this profoundly inspiring
book, "Another Door Opens ," Jeffrey A. Wands offers a different
perception - one that suggests that a unique form of contact has
opened.
In his trademark conversational style, Wands takes readers on a
dramatic tour of the beyond - presenting an entirely new definition
of death and, most interestingly, the opportunities it presents. By
recounting real-life stories of those who've used his psychic
ability to reach their loved ones, "Another Door Opens" provides
intense and unforgettable examples of how the wisdom of the dead
has helped change and enrich the lives of the living. The result is
an awe-inspiring book that shows readers how to keep the door open
to those who've passed - and how to use that connection to open
doors to a new understanding of their own experiences.
A fascinating and enlightening celebration of mushrooms and the
magic of the forest for those who revel in mushroom imagery and
lore. Mushrooms--as a decorative element, as a signifier of the
mystery of the forest, and as an adorable emblem of witchy
cottagecore dreams--have proliferated in the collective
consciousness as of late. Mushroom Magick is a whimsical collection
of mushroom facts and fables divided into three sections: first,
profiles of 22 well-known mushrooms include information on biology
and common uses as well as a rundown of their energetic properties
and suggestions for incorporating them into spellwork. Section two
provides a world-spanning collection of mushroom myths and fables.
The final section is a taste of the spells and rituals that you can
perform with common mushrooms such as creminis, shiitakes, and
portobellos--carved candles, floor washes, teas, and even some
yummy meals can improve your love life, super-charge your good
fortune, or even cast a well-deserved hex upon your most hated
enemy.
Seventh-Day Adventists, Melanesian cargo cults, David Koresh's
Branch Davidians, and the Raelian UFO religion would seem to have
little in common. What these groups share, however, is a millennial
orientation-the audacious human hope for a collective salvation,
which may be either heavenly or earthly. While many religions
feature a belief in personal salvation, millennial faiths involve
the expectation that salvation will be accomplished for an entire
group by a superhuman agent, with or without human collaboration.
While the term "millennialism" is drawn from Christianity, it is a
category that is used to study religious expressions in diverse
cultures, religious traditions, and historical periods. Sometimes,
as with the American Millerite movement, millennialism expresses
itself benignly. Other times, as in the Branch Davidians' showdown
with the FBI in Waco, these movements turn violent. This handbook
will offer readers an in-depth look at both the theoretical
underpinnings of the study of millennialism and its many
manifestations across history and cultures. The book will begin
with a section that lays out the four different types of
millennialism and will then move on to examine millennialism in a
wide variety of places and times, from ancient millennial movements
to modern apocalyptic movements. This handbook will be a valuable
resource for scholars of religious studies, sociology, psychology,
history, and new religious movements.
The author wishes it to be known that the content of this book is
authentic and true - messages sent from the Spirit World by
Matthew's wife Barbara. When she passed over into the spiritual
realms, that could have been the end of the book but Barbara is
still communicating with her beloved husband every day, to let him
know that there is life after death. This she emphasises without
being prejudiced, God rest her soul. Written by Matthew, her
husband.
