Tasseography is a divination or fortune-telling method that interrogates patterns in tea leaves, coffee grounds, or wine sediments. It derives from the French word tasse, which in turn derives from the cognate Arabic word tassa, and the Greek suffix -graph. Divination attempts to gain insight through intuitive interpretation. This is book collects interpretations of symbols I've heard and read about or seen used by readers, including my mother. You, as a reader, will develop your own vocabulary of the leaves. This is just a suggested starting-place.

We Are of Eternal Love is an adventure through time and space. Compiling daily channeling over the course of a year, the author shares with us her discovery of experiencing multidimensional, parallel lives. She presents a remarkable and thought-provoking description of three entities, how they are connected, and how they influence each other's lives. This is a "living" book that the author continues to experience, for as the author discovered, it is in the unlimited flow of the Spirit that resides within us, that has no boundaries, no limitations, no conditions to meet. It simply is, and it flows freely without restrictions. But in order for us to recognize and experience the same, we must put ourselves within that flow to allow it to be so. We must let go of the rock on the river bank, let go of our conditions, and allow ourselves to flow freely down that river of life. In doing so, we will round the corner which is currently out of sight, but which will present us with all that we have ever dreamed. We are never alone. We are of eternal love.
It is through the Norse God of Magic, Odhin, that gods and men are able to receive the wisdom of the Runes. Odhin was the first being to be initiated into the Runic mysteries by extracting the Rune wisdom directly from the source, and it infused into his being. When the essence of the Runic knowledge merged within him, he was able to formulate the means to communicate their nature to other beings. This book is meant to be a beginners guide to using the Runes for divination purposes, as such, detailed lore about the Runes and more complex divination practices and methods are not included here. However, even an experienced Runster will find beneficial information and perhaps a new way of looking at the Runes.

"If I had wished to attach to each quatrain a listing of its period, that would have been possible to do." With these words to his King, Nostradamus, the 16th-century French seer, left behind hundreds of controversial prophecies. Author Kay Wells asks: what if he did do just that? Attach a list? For the explosive answer, she selects Quatrain X.72, which predicts apocalyptic events for 1999. Using the prophet's words as her guide, she solves the quatrain's many puzzles and uncovers the sensational secret they hide - a network of dates for 1900-2010 that traces the history of Britain, a fading power, and the United States, supreme at the end of the 20th century. Regions, personalities and events are highlighted, from Iraq in 1917 to Afghanistan in 2010, from Elizabeth II to Barack Obama, from space technology to quantum theory. It's all there, our world, our age, marked out for us by the man whose brilliant vision has always been concealed. Until now.

A complete manual and guide of self instruction in the art of fortune telling by cards, otherwise known as cartomancy. The aim of this little book is to present the reader with the more modern and facile methods of card telling, and having shown that the invention of cards or tablets for the purpose of divination is of a remote and exalted origin, we need to simply indicate where the difference lies between the originals and those in current use.

Could the things people say about their experiences of paranormal phenomena, such as telepathy, precognitive dreams, angels etc., be imagination run wild or could they be real experiences? Should we without further consideration reject the major religions - or dismiss the stories of unexpected healings, spiritual experiences, or other unusual events as fiction or coincidence? Anne Skjonsberg went in search of explanations for the inexplicable, and in this book presents the fruits of her extensive reading. With the major religious traditions as background, she provides a fascinating presentation of strange phenomena and abilities, duly recorded and witnessed, as well as research and the theories around them. Consciousness, dreams and visualization, spirit beings and channelling, near-death experiences and reincarnation are key topics among the many aspects discussed. The book comes complete with a detailed bibliography and reference notes and index.
One of the easiest and logical system of palmistry that i ever saw: Sophie (Gaurav's Student) The best thing about this book is that it is written by a teacher of palmistry so he knows what it takes to make students learn: Michael Nelson (Gaurav's Student) This book is better than the most other books for learning palmistry because this book is written for the sole purpose of teaching the palmistry in a scientific and rational manner to new learners. The most of the other books available in market were not meant for teaching; they were not written for learners. All the available books on palmistry lacked a systematic approach with simplified principles for teaching. For this reason this book 'Principles of Palmistry: A Self Learning Manual' was written. This contains the principles and the system of palmistry that he developed for his students over the years. While reading this book student will feel like talking to the author in his class. Every fact is explained with reason and ample (125) illustrations. This book aims to enable the students to learn the system and principles of palmistry for applying on everyone's hand with confidence. Author of this book Dr. Gaurav Agrawal is the instructor of palmistry at the Indian Palmistry Institute, Rishikesh, India. While teaching he realized that there was not a single book of palmistry that was helpful to new students. For his simplified and logical system he was very much appreciated. Moreover being a clinical psychologist he had used and taught palmistry as a tool for understanding human personality. This understanding is also incorporated in this book. Surely it will be helpful for new learners and also for all those palmists who know the subject but still want to learn it systematically with a logical approach.
In her second book Leila Oliver White expands on the information in her first book, Pendulum Dowsing and the Spirit Connection, about making dowsing pendulums, and provides an alphabetical chart similar to a typewriter key board with instructions for spelling out messages from the other side. When the techniques are mastered, the Spirit Guide will be available to give guidance and protection to those who ask for help and to their families. She shares with a humorous approach many of the interesting episodes that have added enjoyment to her years living by herself in the beautiful mountains of the Pacific Northwest.
