Have you ever experienced an intuitive flash about a person or situation? Did you act on this feeling, or did you dismiss it because you felt it wasn't tied to reality? In this guide, author Alain Jean-Baptiste posits that this "knowing" likely came to your lost seven senses, which are hidden beyond the familiar five: sight, hearing, taste, touch and smell...

Explaining how humans gather information using the basic five senses, Alain details how the cultivation of these lost senses will assist you in unlocking your intuitive abilities and how to discover your psychic abilities:

The Sense of Imagination links the physical and the nonphysical senses

Learn the 5 tricks for restoring the Sense of Balance to its state of equilibrium

Discover 3 ways in which The Sense of Life can help you attune yourself to someones life force

Recognize the 7 voices of your soul by using your Sense of Voice to better understand yourself

The sense of Movement can help you better distinguish patterns and trends more precisely

The Sense of Warmth can help you strengthen your relationships

The Sense of Substance enables your mind to access information about objects at a distance

In this guide, author Alain Jean-Baptiste uses personal experience, case studies, examples, and exercises to help you not only see, but imagine and live in a world in which communicating with the other side, seeing the future, establishing rapport more spontaneously with others, predicting economic trends, and bringing medicine to a whole new level can be a reality.

This beginner's guidebook instructs the aspiring fortune teller in the art of Cartomancy - telling fortunes with playing cards. Those knowledgeable about fortune telling can confirm that ordinary playing cards can more than satisfy the requirements for concise accuracy which underpins all good fortune telling. While it is tempting to choose instead Tarot, with its rich and varied imagery, there needn't be the complexity when a simpler, more accessible and less arcane means of fortune telling accomplishes the task of predicting the future superbly. The chapters of this guide detail the myriad methodologies afforded by the 52 cards of a pack allow for intense and accurate predictions. Different foci are examined, different circumstances isolated and read upon, and different alignments and arrangement of the cards used to benefit those eager to discover their future.

In late fifteenth century Florence, Renaissance humanists rediscovered a secret, natural language hidden in the visual wisdom of the proverb 'the eyes are the windows of the soul'. Through its magical prism, the language of eyes, faces, voices, laughs, walks, even stones, plants and animals, all became windows into the souls of other people, of oneself, of nature, and ultimately of God. Some saw in its words the perfect hieroglyphic language by which Adam had first named nature, which, when combined with the art of memory, could bring about a form of 'inner writing' or mystical self-transformation. Yet many others dismissed it as a collection of arbitrary conventions, superstitious enigmas, or 'gypsy' riddles. Embroiled in the religious persecution of the Reformation, rejected as a science during the Scientific Revolution, in the age of Enlightenment physiognomy came to be seen as nothing more than an amusing entertainment. But with the dawn of Romanticism, be it in the realms of science, religion, or poetry, some began to see that physiognomy was no game and the flame of serious interest in physiognomy was once again rekindled. Combining book history and visual history, Dr Porter reconstructs this physiognomical eye, interprets the way in which books on physiognomy were read and traces the wider intellectual, social, and cultural changes that contributed to the metamorphosis of this way of beholding oneself and the natural world from the Renaissance to the dawn of Romanticism.

Mrs. Betty Lilac has always been a sort of mystic and has experienced prophetic dreams since she was a young girl. Now in her late fifties, Betty is a tarot card reader extraordinaire. A kind and generous woman, she uses her gift to help others and to make a difference in their lives. But not everyone approves of Betty's talent.

Mr. Gately, her landlord, has evicted Betty from the comfortable home in which she has lived for twenty years. He claims she practices black magic and has garnered a negative reputation, which is bad for his business. In addition, she begins to receive strange phone calls, notices mysterious cars driving by her property, and observes unusual lights at night in the nearby junkyard.

Indeed, Betty's year is filled with mystery, danger, sorrow, and loss. Supported by a cast of dedicated friends and clients, she confronts her challenges with aplomb. And when she shuffles and deals the tarot deck, she is surprised at what the cards have to say about her future.

Polemon of Laodicea (near modern Denizli, south-west Turkey) was a wealthy Greek aristocrat and a key member of the intellectual movement known as the Second Sophistic. Among his works was the Physiognomy, a manual on how to tell character from appearance, thus enabling its readers to choose friends and avoid enemies on sight. Its formula of detailed instruction and personal reminiscence proved so successful that the book was re-edited in the fourth century by Adamantius in Greek, translated and adapted by an unknown Latin author of the same era, and translated in the early Middle Ages into Syriac and Arabic. The surviving versions of Adamantius, Anonymus Latinus, and the Leiden Arabic more than make up for the loss of the original.
The present volume is the work of a team of leading Classicists and Arabists. The main surviving versions in Greek and Latin are translated into English for the first time. The Leiden Arabic translation is authoritatively re-edited and translated, as is a sample of the alternative Arabic Polemon. The texts and translations are introduced by a series of masterly studies that tell the story of the origins, function, and legacy of Polemon's work, a legacy especially rich in Islam. The story of the Physiognomy is the story of how one man's obsession with identifying enemies came to be taken up in the fascinating transmission of Greek thought into Arabic.
