This book describes two subjective methods of evaluating what your subconscious actually feels about the words you use in everyday communications, and in spiritual or intellectual activities. The first method demonstrated measures the spacing of your palms in a 'slow clapping' motion, which follows in response to a question. This technique has been used in the pranic healing school of the Philippines to test the state of energy body components, but can equally well be used to gain a response to mental questions in a form of divination. The second method uses an unusual and ancient form of dowsing, once employed for a variety of purposes in Sardinia. Dowsing seems to date back millenia, to when ancient monuments were sited almost inevitably, above underground water sources. This method counts the number of rotations of a Y-shaped plastic tube (in substitution for the traditional forked hazel twig) you are able to make, in response to questions of the type: 'What is the energy of this (place, word, phrase, name)?' - your subconscious prevents further rotations occuring beyond the number which corresponds to its energy relative to other words. The book contains an assessment of a large number of commonly used words, phrases, names, and emotions, and evaluates also the energy scores for numbers in common use. Many of these evaluations were carried out by the author, and hence inevitably, are subjective, though the method has been used successfully by others. For example, trials with Swedish subjects are mentioned, that show persons with a modicum of interest and competence in 'energy fields' are capable of duplicating these results if they are able to extend their auras. What is the connection with the aura? The author's hypothesis is that both methods are measuring the extension of the aura in response to a question held in mind. The significance of the book then, is that it allows people to assess their reaction to the english language, to persons in the media, and to review excerpts from text files to assess the likely impact they will have on the reader.

See the trailer for Lithomancy, the Psychic Art of Reading Stones via - http: //www.youtube.com/watch?v=oBI1MAiSTGg This book explains in detail how to give psychic readings by interpreting the Pattern formed when a Reader or the Subject of a reading drops Sixteen Stones into a Circle of leather or lace, which represents the environment. Every Pattern is unique, and each reveals - in symbolic form - layer upon layer of information that is read in a clock-like fashion, starting at or near the center of the Circle and reading towards 12 o'clock, then around the Circle with each hour on an imaginary clock representing one week. Readers develop skill at Lithomancy by knowing the symbolism and meaning behind each Stone and the different ways to 'see' a Pattern, then combining that knowledge with intuition to interpret what the Pattern represents. Every person is different, and every Reader will invariably develop a personal style and read from a unique psychic perspective. In general, Lithomancy readings offer insights into many different issues that have or will come up over the next three months: personal, financial, relationships, home, business plans, spiritual issues, unexpected changes, etc. The Patterns reveal how these issues interrelate, why they are occurring, and how the challenges a person faces can be used as opportunities. Patterns also reveal the 'light at the end of the tunnel, ' and show how - via free will - a person can become and stay empowered, benefit from their situations, create positive outcomes, and expand in personal and spiritual growth, regardless of the situation. Once a Reader learns the basics of this powerful and versatile psychic art system, he or she can apply variations to read for people other than the Subject or for specific situations or matters of concerns, investigations, business plans, unique circumstances, etc. The author, Gary L. Wimmer, began giving readings in 1973, and since 1980 he has used the highly intuitive art of Lithomancy to give accurate and comprehensive readings in the USA and in Europe, in person and over the phone. He works regularly at psychic fairs, conventions, parties, fundraisers, on cruise ships, on live radio shows, etc. For information see garywimmer.com/psychic.

Charles Godfrey Leland (August 15, 1824 - March 20, 1903) was an American humorist and folklorist, born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He was educated at Princeton University and in Europe. Leland worked in journalism, traveled extensively, and became interested in folklore and folk linguistics, publishing books and articles on American and European languages and folk traditions. By the end of his life shortly after the turn of the century, Leland had worked in a wide variety of trades, achieved recognition as the author of the comic Hans Breitmann's Ballads, fought in two conflicts, and had written what was to become a primary source text for Neopaganism half a century later, Aradia, or the Gospel of the Witches.

It's All in the Name explains the concept of Lexigrams and the uncanny magic they can unfold for self-knowledge. The author begins by introducing simple words and taking the reader on a journey that shows how much we can find the truth we are searching for is contained within the words we use every day. After offering a few rules to guide the Lexigram process (and suggesting times to break those rules), she explains the interconnections among Lexigrams, astrology, and numerology. Sharita Star goes on to show how many of the Lexigrams that can be derived from names and titles relate to the very astrological and numerical guidance that governs them, providing historical evidence to show how this dynamic works. To do so, she offers references to zodiacal Sun signs and the Chaldean understanding of numerology. Moreover, Sharita provides numerous case studies of well-know individuals, past and present. It's All in the Name is a valuable tool for exploring the profound inner meanings of names and everyday words and for deepening one's intuitive capacity.
