When she was six years old, Allison's deceased great-grandfather
came to her with a message for her mother: "I am okay, I am still
with you. Tell your mom there's no more pain." Allison shared his
comforting words with her mother and thus began a lifetime of
creating connections between loved ones and those they have
lost.
In this stunning book, Allison shares fascinating stories of her
encounters with people who have passed and her adventures as a
profiler for various law enforcement organizations. With wit and
compassion, Allison shows us what it is like to live with these
special gifts and talents and also tells about her struggle to live
a normal life as a devoted wife and mother. She shows how learning
to accept her own gifts has helped her accept the unique gifts of
others and how her compelling desire to relieve the pain of others
has helped to define her own life, a life committed to the search
for ultimate truth.
The Believer is the weird and chilling true story of Dr. John Mack.
This eminent Harvard psychiatrist and Pulitzer Prize-winning
biographer risked his career to investigate the phenomenon of human
encounters with aliens and to give credibility to the stupefying
tales shared by people who were utterly convinced they had
happened. Nothing in Mack's four decades of psychiatry had prepared
him for the otherworldly accounts of a cross-section of humanity
including young children who reported being taken against their
wills by alien beings. Over the course of his career his interest
in alien abduction grew from curiosity to wonder, ultimately
developing into a limitless, unwavering passion. Based on exclusive
access to Mack's archives, journals, and psychiatric notes and
interviews with his family and closest associates, The Believer
reveals the life and work of a man who explored the deepest of
scientific conundrums and further leads us to the hidden dimensions
and alternate realities that captivated Mack until the end of his
life.
First published in 1896, "The Magical Ritual of the Sanctum Regnum" is
an interesting dissertation on the ruling of the world by the seven
great archangels written by Éliphas Lévi, (1810 - 1875), a French
author of occult literature and ceremonial magician. In this vintage
volume, Lévi outlines how the world is ruled by one of the seven
archangels, each for a period of 354 years. The archangels are
represented by celestial bodies, with Michael being the sun, Gabriel
being the moon, Samael, Mars, etc. This volume will appeal to those
with an interest in the occult, and it is not to be missed by
collectors of vintage esoteric literature. Contents include: "The
Magical Ritual of the Sanctum Regnum", "The Priestess - La Papesse",
"The Empress - L'imperatrice", "The Emperor", "L'Emereur", "The Pope of
Hierophant - Le Pape", "The Lovers - L'amoureux", "The Chariot of
Hermes - Le Chariot", "Justice - La Justice", etc. Many vintage books
such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with
this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable,
modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new
biography of the author.

A comprehensive (but fun and easy-to-use) guide to accessing spirit
guides, from an accomplished medium. Having a relationship with
your spirit guides is common in spiritual circles--whether those
are your ancestors, power animals, or just entities from the
beyond. These could be the voices of the departed, but they could
also be earth spirits or just an entity from a place you haven't
been yet. Whatever the source, veteran medium Catharine Allan
guides readers through the question of what it means to speak to
spirits, how to do it, and how to honor and protect your
relationship with their powerful energies.
Tarot cards have been around since the Renaissance and have become
increasingly popular in recent years, often due to their prevalence
in popular culture. While Tarot means many different things to many
different people, the cards somehow strike universal chords that
can resonate through popular culture in the contexts of art,
television, movies, even comic books. The symbolism within the
cards, and the cards as symbols themselves, make Tarot an excellent
device for the media of popular culture in numerous ways. They make
horror movies scarier. They make paintings more provocative. They
provide illustrative structure to comics and can establish the
traits of television characters. The Cards: The Evolution and Power
of Tarot begins with an extensive review of the history of Tarot
from its roots as a game to its supposed connection to ancient
Egyptian magic, through its place in secret societies, and to its
current use in meditation and psychology. This section ends with an
examination of the people who make up today's tarot community.
Then, specific areas of popular culture-art, television, movies,
and comics-are each given a chapter in which to survey the use of
Tarot. In this section, author Patrick Maille analyzes such works
as Deadpool, Books of Magic by Neil Gaiman, Disney's Haunted
Mansion, Sherlock Holmes: Game of Shadows, The Andy Griffith Show,
Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and King of the Hill. The cards are
evocative images in their own right, but the mystical fascination
they inspire makes them a fantastic tool to be used in our favorite
shows and stories.
