When we purposefully change our handwriting, we introduce attitudes that can improve our relationships, give us the impetus to achieve and take risks, and simply bring out the best in us. This is because our handwriting is a reflection of our innermost thoughts and feelings. When we fall in love, survive a serious illness, or change careers, our view of life is dramatically altered and, as a result, our handwriting patterns change. Conversely, desired transformations can result from intentionally changing the way specific letters are written:

* Stick to that diet by changing the letter T.
* Avoid being overlooked for that well-deserved promotion by changing the letter G.
* Reduce stress and cease juggling too many things at once by changing the letter S.
* Overcome shyness or stage fright by changing the letter A.

Included is an enlightening assessment test that identifies those personality traits requiring attention. Your Handwriting Can Change Your Life profoundly reveals that the key to making dreams come true is as simple as putting pen to paper.

First published in 1981, Divination and Oracles analyses the religious practices of the ancient world as they have been witnessed from Scandinavia to Tibet and Japan, from the third millennium BC until the present day. Divination and the consultation of oracles formed part of the religious practice of the ancient world and are part of the living folklore of the contemporary societies. They are subjects that are of immediate concern to anthropologists and not infrequently to the historians of early science. Written by the specialists in the early history of European and Asian Civilisations, the chapters call on the evidence of the written word of history and the surviving artefacts and inscriptions of archaeology. They describe the different methods that have been adopted and examine the types of question that feature in man's attempt to seek guidance from other powers. The contributions show how an appeal to the irrational can affect the decision of prophet or statesman, or the way of life of farmer or sailor; and how such an appeal can also stimulate scientific enquiry into the cycles of nature. This book is a must read for scholars and researchers of religion, comparative religion, and ancient history.

Date Selection practitioners, specialists, and students will finally breathe a sigh of relief when they encounter this compendium! Compiling and streamlining all the information from important classical Date Selection sources such as The Tome of Heaven and Earth (Qian Kun Bao Dian), The Heavenly Precious Calendar (Tian Bao Li) and most significantly of all, The Book of Unifying Times and Discerning Dimensions (Xie Ji Bian Fang Shu), this book will make Date Selection research and study that much easier. An integral and important part of Chinese Metaphysics, Date Selection has largely been overlooked in importance due to the vast amount of resources available on the subject. The compendium attempts to summarise and unify all this information in a clear and understandable format and presents it within organised, systematic tables and charts. This is the first reference book of its kind to attempt to tabulate all the Stars relating to all the Jia Zi (Year Pillar), specifically the Directional Stars, Location-based Stars, and the Year-Based Stars (Positional Stars). Its benefits are multi-purpose and varied, and can be applied to all systems of Feng Shui (including San He, San Yuan, Xuan Kong), all systems of BaZi (Four Pillars of Destiny) including the Shen Sha systems and structural systems, Purple Star Astrology, and many other forms of Chinese Metaphysics. The highlight of this vast and comprehensive compendium is that you'll be able to refer to every Star that is associated with a particular Jia Zi (Year Pillar), and hence have at your fingertips the 60 Jia Zi Annual Stars. Some of these include: Annual Positive Stars for every Jia Zi (Year Pillar); Annual Negative Stars for every Jia Zi (Year Pillar); Annual San Yuan Purple White Stars; Monthly Purple White Stars; Mountain Covering Yellow Path Stars; Heaven Penetrating Force Stars; Qi Men Three Nobles Stars; Plenty more, including the 12-Month Auxiliary Stars Reference Table. Just like the other books in Joey Yap's Chinese Metaphysics Reference Series, this book presents all the key technical phrases and names in both English and Chinese. This is designed to facilitate students, practitioners and teachers in their study, research, practice and teaching of Chinese Metaphysics in its original form.

Providing an analysis of Chinese divination as a means of organizing and interpreting reality, Richard Smith examines a wide variety of mantic techniques - from the use of the hallowed Yjing to such popular practices as siting (geomancy), astrology, numerology, physiognomy, the analysis of written characters, meteorological divination, the use of mediums (including spirit-writing), and dream interpretation. As he explains the pervasiveness and tenacity of divination in China, the author explores not only the connections between various mantic techniques but also the relationship between divination and other facets of Chinese culture, including philosophy, science and medicine. He discusses the symbolism of divination, its aesthetics, its ritual aspects, and its psychological and social significance, pointing out that in traditional China divination helped to order the future, just as history helped to order the past, and rituals the present.

An almost obsessional use of numbers characterizes Japanese popular culture. A wide variety of numerical formulas and strategies provide the means for explaining events and solving problems occurring in everyday life. These include such matters as the choice of the name for a child, ranking in almost any game or sport, the diagnosis and cure of illness, or the decision to accept a new job.
"The Japanese Numbers Game" provides a general study of the whole field of Japanese popular numeracy. It introduces, in fascinating detail, a world of numbers in which fortune-telling, the abacus, games involving numbers as well as curious numerical names (of both people and places) illustrate a popular obsession with systems of counting, calculation, and forecasting.
No understanding of Japanese popular culture is complete without some knowledge of the use of numbers by the Japanese. Thomas Crump's meticulous exploration of the cultural roots of these attitudes makes this book essential for students of anthropology and Japanese studies.

"An elegant and comprehensive critical edition of the Dao De Jing." KIRKUS Review This book examines one of the world's most enduring and influential literary works through the timeless art of qigong. In his words, Lao Tzu (or Laozi), author of the Dao De Jing, embodies qigong principles, advocating the cultivation of mind and body. Only when we know qigong can we know Lao Tzu-and only when we know Lao Tzu can we know the Dao De Jing. Lao Tzu's writing has been read, translated, and discussed around the globe. It deals with principles that transcend time and culture. That is why this ancient text has been reimagined countless times in books on business, relationships, and parenting-but never with a focus on the art of qigong. This makes the Dao De Jing: A Qigong Interpretation unique and indispensible. Many chapters in the Dao De Jing purely talk about qigong, especially the practices of regulating the body, breathing, mind, qi, and spirit. Dr. Yang, a renowned author, scholar, and martial artist, devoted decades to researching and writing this book. He interprets and analyzes the 81 chapters of the Dao De Jing. His commentary will bring new insight, inspiration, and depth to your understanding of Lao Tzu's words-and to your qigong practice. This book includes The complete Dao De Jing in English and its original Chinese text Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming's commentary and analysis of each chapter Numerous illustrations and diagrams The Dao De Jing: A Qigong Interpretation is not a book of instruction. It is about the Way-the path before us, in qigong and in life, where what you achieve comes through your own understanding.
