Discover the secrets of the ancient temples, the sacred geometry
that gave rise to the world's most awe-inspiring cathedrals and the
cryptic ceremonies of the modern-day Freemasons. Thousands of years
ago, people began to notice that certain structures had beneficial
effects on the crops that sustained their lives. A body of
traditional lore evolved, guiding the priests and priestesses of
ancient tribes in the use of architecture and ceremonies that made
use of wholly natural magical effects. The Temple of Solomon was
only one of many ancient structures that drew on the temple
tradition, and its secrets and traditions have been passed along
from the Knights Templar to the Freemasons. Join John Michael Greer
as he rebuilds a body of lost knowledge that's been used to
accumulate and direct energy throughout history...and can be used
again today.

AUTHOR OF THE CHRONICLES OF ST MARY'S I don't know who I am. I
don't know what I am. The identity of Elizabeth Cage has always

been a peaceful holiday turns into anything but, and Elizabeth is

anything to find out. But who will live to regret it? Twisty, dark

magicians, the third edition of Israel Regardie's A Garden of
Pomegranates is now better than ever, thanks to the extensive

understand, more complete, and up to date. It now includes over 300
pages of never-before-published information from two Senior Adepts

The Qabalah is the ancient system of Hebrew mysticism that is
the foundation of Western magical and esoteric studies. Its primary
symbol is the Tree of Life, a diagram that can aid in the study of
the nature of the Universe, the essence of God, and the human mind,
spirit, and soul. A Garden of Pomegranates is the clearest
introductory guide on this subject. When Israel Regardie wrote A
Garden of Pomegranates in 1932, he designed it to be a simple yet
comprehensive guidebook outlining the complex system of the Qabalah
and providing a key to its symbolism. Since then, it has achieved
the status of a classic among texts on the Qabalah. The full
annotations, critical commentary, and explanatory notes now make
this book the ultimate single resource on the subject. The new
material, including pathworkings, exercises, daily affirmations,
rituals, meditations, and more, not only complement the original,
full text included in this edition, but also make A Garden of
Pomegranates indispensable for modern magicians.
Supernatural elements are of central significance in many of
Shakespeare's plays, contributing to their dramatic power and
intrigue. Ghosts haunt political spaces and internal psyches,
witches foresee the future and disturb the present, fairies meddle
with love and a magus conjures a tempest from the elements.
Although written and performed for early modern audiences, for whom
the supernatural, whether sacred, demonic or folkloric, was part of
the fabric of everyday life, the supernatural in Shakespeare
continues to enthrall audiences and readers, and maintains its
power to raise a range of questions in contemporary contexts. This
edited collection of twelve essays from an international range of
contemporary Shakespeare scholars explores the supernatural in
Shakespeare from a variety of perspectives and approaches,
generating new knowledge and presenting hitherto unexplored avenues
of enquiry across the Shakespearean canon. -- .
This book explores cryptid creatures you will find in the State of
Florida, and opens up a new venue of "eco-tourism" for those
seeking adventure in the outdoors here. If you enjoy pursuing the
odd, strange, unusual or just plain weird things in nature, you
will find this book a great starting place to plan your next
eco-safari.
An innocent family finds itself completely helpless against the
sudden onset of paranormal activity in their quiet rural home. A
knife embedded in a kitchen cupboard, crockery smashed by invisible
hands, and blood-chilling growls emit from thin air. Caroline and
her husband Neil search for answers as they try to protect their
family from the unseen entity that seems determined to rip them
apart. The biggest question looms over them like a dark cloud ...
who is going to help us? There are emergency services for many
things, but not of this nature. It might be easier to believe
temporary insanity, if not for the vast amount of witnesses.
Police, fire services, mediums, priests and investigators all
become embroiled in the mystery. The family struggles to cope, and
Caroline grows concerned for her husband's failing health as he
withdraws from the world. However, the entity has only just begun.
Paranormal Intruder is the true story of one family's brave fight
against an invisible entity. Described as one of the
best-documented cases of paranormal activity, this page turning
book will stay with you long after you have finished reading it.
