Many modern women are fed up with the status quo that tries to put us into boxes and take away our power. With cultural movements like #MeToo and an ever-changing political climate, we can find ourselves overwhelmed by the powerful emotions and issues that are bubbling up. How do we release the trauma? Deal with the pain? Empower ourselves and move through as a culture? F*ck Like a Goddess is a road map for modern women. As a prominent voice in transformational healing and the divine feminine who has emerged stronger and wiser from her own experiences with sexual abuse, mental abuse, and body shaming, Alexandra Roxo has developed the tried-and-true methods in this book for getting beyond our cultural programming and beginning to live and “fuck†like a Goddess - metaphorically and literally. This book will guide you to see that healing, reclaiming your voice, and stepping into your full security can be magical . . . and will lead to finding power that is truly yours. As Alexandra says, “We are in need of an uprising of messy, wild women, who have reclaimed their bodies, standing in their sacred sexuality for them. We need women living from their own hearts. We need the balance between the fierce and the mindful; the Warrior Woman and the gentle, compassionate lover.â€
Through a reassessment of phrenology, Phrenology and the Origins of Victorian Scientific Naturalism sheds light on all kinds of works in Victorian Britain and America which have previously been unnoticed or were simply referred to with a vague 'naturalism of the times' explanation. It is often assumed that the scientific naturalism familiar in late nineteenth century writers such as T.H. Huxley and John Tyndall are the effects of a 'Darwinian revolution' unleashed in 1859 on an unsuspecting world following the publication of The Origin of Species. Yet it can be misleading to view Darwin's work in isolation, without locating it in the context of a well established and vigorous debate concerning scientific naturalism. Throughout the nineteenth century intellectuals and societies had been discussing the relationship between nature and man, and the scientific and religious implications thereof. At the forefront of these debates were the advocates of phrenology, who sought to apply their theories to a wide range of subjects, from medicine and the treatment of the insane, to education, theology and even economic theories. Showing how ideas about naturalism and the doctrine of natural laws were born in the early phrenology controversies in the 1820s, this book charts the spread of such views. It argues that one book in particular, The Constitution of Man in Relation to External Objects (1828) by George Combe, had an enormous influence on scientific thinking and the popularity of the 'naturalistic movement'. The Constitution was one of the best-selling books of the nineteenth century, being published continuously from 1828 to 1899, and selling more than 350,000 copies throughout the world, many times more than Dawin's The Origin of Species. By restoring Combe and his work to centre stage it provides modern scholars with a more accurate picture of the Victorians' view of their place in Nature.

Predict your future, reveal your past and understand your personality, talents and secrets with the art of chiromancy. Palmistry is not just about the lines on the hands, but the hand as a whole is just as important. This book will introduce you to the four basic hand shapes within palmistry, explaining the different elements and their associated traits, and how to observe the palm's natural topography - the lines and markings and the mounts and plains. The Little Book of Palmistry will help you discover more about yourself and become more familiar with one of the oldest and most reliable of fortune-telling arts. SAMPLE QUOTE: 'If you look deeply into the palm of your hand, you will see your parents and all generations of your ancestors. All of them are alive in this moment. Each is present in your body. You are the continuation of each of these people.' - Thich Nhat Hanh SAMPLE FACT: The best time to read a palm is in the morning, not long after the subject has woken up from nocturnal slumber and before he has had anything to eat or drink. This is so because consumption of food and participation in physical activities leads to increased blood circulation, which does not allow the very fine lines along the palm to be noticed.

In Cosmic Cards, sought-after tarot teacher and astrologer Maisy Bristol shows us how to read and interpret the star signs and tarot in one combined practice to give us a fresh outlook on life. For years, we have looked solely to the zodiac for guidance. Astrology has long told us that Taurus is a comfort-loving homebody who loves routine, while Gemini is the extroverted social butterfly who craves variety. However, as the universe expands and we become even more multifaceted, surely this blinkered outlook is no longer reflective of the times we live in? By reading astrology through the lens of the tarot, we can uncover how to broaden our minds, smash stereotypes and discover the different facets of each sign's personality to reveal a deeper insight into us, our family, friends and lovers. Accompanied by a beautifully illustrated 78-strong deck, Cosmic Cards is a modern mystical toolkit that enhances our understanding of ourselves and others through the wisdom of astrology and tarot.
From ancient times, people have wanted to understand the rhythms of life and looked to the skies for answers. The Ancient Greeks and Romans turned to the celestial bodies for inspiration and devised narratives to which they referred to make decisions and choices. Maybe the options have changed, but we are still seeking wisdom and guidance in life today. Whether it's working out your ideal career, your perfect partner or to understand more about how you communicate, Liberty Phi has the answers. A student of astrology for over 20 years, in her Planet Zodiac series, Liberty will take you on a deep dive into your star sign and birth chart. Only by understanding the meaning, nature and power of each planet and how that's relevant to your birth chart – which is relevant only to you – can you really harness the power of the zodiac. You can then use this knowledge to work out how planetary patterns might influence you and how they will affect your life in a rather profound way. You will learn, for instance, what sort of impression you are likely to make when you enter a room, how you function in a group, or how spontaneous you are likely to be. Whatever your star sign, these books will help you to take an in-depth and tailored exploration of your star sign and will give you the tools to harness the zodiac and take control of your life.
