This book carries the art of reading the hand to a new dimension. Every person's hand is a map containing an incredible amount of information concerning their life and character, their fate in the past, the present and the future, and all this fascinating information can be interpreted with ease once you know how. This book includes everything you could want to know about traditional palmistry with is focus on fortune telling, predicting matters of fate and fortune, love, health, finance and success. It also deals with every subtle aspect of human psychology as recorded on the hand, intellectual, emotional, intuitional, and physical. Much of the information, newly researched, has never been published before. And more than any other book on the subject, The Handbook of Palmistry delves deeply into matters of the inner self, the human soul, and the undercurrent of life. It explains not only how palmistry works, but why it works, symbolising through the palm of the hand the movements of the life forces which govern the way we all live.
In this intriguing exploration of human relationship patterns, Clare Martin compares two hitherto unrelated approaches, to see what, if anything, they can offer each other. Astrology has a rich historical, philosophical, and cultural background. Its categories are archetypal and its language is mythic, symbolic and imaginative. Personality theory is an extension of the medical model pioneered by Freud. Based on extensive empirical research and clinical practice, its approach is secular, rational and causal, and its language is analytical. Astrology and personality theory share the recognition that all human experience takes place in the context of relationship, between subject and object, self and other, internal and external, at both conscious and unconscious levels. We find ourselves in a world of duality and polarity, caught between opposites. Stories and story-telling weave these two approaches together and expand our understanding of human nature, with all its paradoxes and complexities. Clare uses a variety of well-known stories with relationship themes at their core - from enduring myths, books and films - to breathe life into the paradoxical themes of each axis in the birth chart, and each character style in personality theory. The stories we are drawn to - or repelled by - tell us more about ourselves. Recognising the stories in our own birth charts generates increased insight, psychic integration, flexibility, and greater acceptance of ourselves and others. Suitable for anyone interested in the way we develop, and for astrologers of all levels or none at all.
Intended for use primarily by people who are already familiar with using the runes to predict the future using rune casts, Runemasters as they are called. The intention is to further knowledge of the runes through Western Astrology and to give more depth to rune readings. It can also be used by astrologers to learn about the runes through their knowledge of astrology.
Draconic astrology is an ancient technique which seems to have got lost in the mists of time somewhere between ancient Babylon and about 1950, when it suddenly resurfaced. It's a powerful tool that uncovers a person's actual life (or soul) purpose by shifting the Moon's natal North Node to 0 Degrees Aries, thus creating a Moon-based specialist destiny chart. But there's more to it than that....;Soul lies at the heart of draconic astrology, yet there is no agreement on what the soul is. It is a timeless and universal preoccupation of philosophers, mystics, authors - and just about everybody - as becomes evident in the wide variety of case studies used in this book to demonstrate the technique. The desire to find one's life purpose shows itself in those who apparently have everything - and those who have far less - and the motivation is the same no matter a person's race, gender, status, wealth, fame and occupation. Join Victor Olliver as he digs deeper into the charts of Britney Spears, Karl Marx, Greta Thunberg, Nelson Mandela and many more to discover just what is revealed in their draconic charts.

As a boy travelling to school by tram, Norbert Glas often passed the time by studying his fellow passengers' faces. He would muse on what the shapes and contours of their noses, eyes and mouths signified. Later in life, having become a medical doctor and a student of Rudolf Steiner's spiritual-scientific world view, Glas gained numerous insights into the mysteries of human physiognomy. In this, the first translation into English of his seminal work, Glas begins by defining the three parts of the human face and explaining the importance of their relative proportions. A person with a face that is more pronounced in one of these areas will tend to have certain personality traits, as well as specific physiological characteristics. People with a strong mouth and chin, for example, tend to have a strong will and an active, driven and assertive nature. With the help of numerous photos and drawings, Glas presents the physiognomy of three basic types of people, and further analyses the specifics of the human head, forehead, ears, eyes, mouth and nose. This book will be valuable to doctors, teachers, or anyone wishing to better understand - and hence tolerate and love - their fellow human beings.
This study uses the I Ching (Book of Changes) to investigate the role of Chinese learning in the development of thought and culture in Tokugawa Japan (1603-1868). I Ching scholarship reached its apex during the Tokugawa.

This is a much needed textbook on fixed stars and their relationship to the natal planets. Bernadette Brady (Brady's Book of Fixed Stars, Samuel Weiser, 1998) has a mission - and that mission is to draw astrologers closer to the foundations of their art, bringing the glory and magnitude of the fixed stars into every day astrology, where she firmly believes they belong. With our light-polluted skies and busy lives, it is easy to practise a form of astrology where we never actually look out at the stars or planets - and in doing so the author shows that we lose vital astrological information about our natal relationship to the heavens. This book offers rare material on the detailed interpretations of an individual's natal heliacal rising and setting stars; these stars yield insight into the nature of one's soul and spiritual path. Additionally, the author gives a comprehensive listing of the meaning of every star when combined with all the planets and nodal axis, for natal as well as predictive use. Tables are provided to help the reader find their own key stars for their time of birth allowing them to work with, and embrace, the sky using the methods that were first employed at the dawn of astrology.
Dowsing simply means searching for something by intuition. It's widely regarded as being a psychic method of looking for water, but it's so much more than that - you can dowse for everything from lost objects to the self-knowledge hidden in your subconscious - and this book will show you exactly how.All of us have intuition but in this modern world we have become disconnected from this ancient power. Uri Geller is famous around the world for his intuitive, paranormal powers, which range from bending spoons to astounding feats of dowsing, such as his location of huge offshore oil field on behalf of Mexico's national oil company (for which he was rewarded with Mexican citizenship). In this amazing book, he guides you step by step through the hidden world of dowsing that he knows so well. Simple exercises in the form of Uri mini-class activities, and fun games such as crystal hide-and-seek, teach the basic skills you need to dowse, whether you use divining rods, a pendulum, a forked twig or just your hands. The book then explains how to use these skills to find everything from lost objects to water, fossils, archaeological remains and even hidden treasure! Most importantly, Uri reveals how dowsing can help you unlock submerged thoughts and knowledge and evaluate vital choices in business, love and family life. Also including real-life case studies of amazing dowsing events, stories of celebrity dowsers through history and background explanation of the science of dowsing, this is a super accessible and fun guide to the most useful of the paranormal skills.

A new oracle deck from the beloved and irreverent spiritual teacher Tosha Silver (Outrageous Openness, Change Me Prayers) offers inspiration to help users "let go and let God" on their way to a more spacious and abundant life. Nothing is more exhausting than endlessly working on "yourself." When you offer your whole Being fully to Love, self-acceptance arises spontaneously. May I rest in our Oneness, dear Divine! If you read the lines above and think, Easier said than done, this oracle deck is for you. In 52 beautifully illustrated cards, beloved spiritual teacher and author Tosha Silver uses her accessible, slightly quirky style to convey her key teaching messages of Surrender and Offering to Divine Will. These messages, familiar to readers of Tosha's highly acclaimed books (Outrageous Openness and Change Me Prayers), are, at their essence, about releasing attachment to ego-defined outcomes. Each card addresses a particular situation--Aging, Ambition, Money, Regrets, Solitude, Travel, Truth--with a comment or invocation that encourages you to offer your pain around this situation to the Divine, and to call in Divine Will for the highest outcome. Intentionally non-prescriptive, the deck can be used in a variety of ways: as an oracle where the Divine guides you to a specific card; to carry or put on an altar as a reminder to reflect on a specific issue; or in any other way you are drawn to use it.
An elemental-inspired card deck of powerful energetic transmissions from the spirit world, received in the Findhorn gardens and sanctuaries The Findhorn community has cultivated a loving partnership with the subtle realms since its very beginning when one of the founders, Dorothy Maclean (1920-2020), began communicating with the devic world in the original Findhorn gardens. Following this lineage of communication with nature and the elemental beings, the Findhorn Spirit Oracle Cards were brought to life in the Findhorn gardens and sanctuaries through a special technique called touch-drawing. In a meditative state, artist Swan Treasure simply allowed the images to appear from her hands onto paper, trusting the powerful energy that asked to be made visible. It was only once all 44 of the touch-drawings were done that their purpose as an elemental-inspired oracle deck became evident. Each card depicts a spirit being as they chose to reveal themselves, in order to pass on wisdom to help us navigate these times of transition. The cards function as energy activators and, through their messages and energies, offer support, companionship, and practical guidance that can be applied to the challenges of daily life. They can also assist us in establishing and deepening a partnership with the divine. Divided into 6 groups, each associated with one of the Findhorn gardens, the cards share the community principles of co-creation with nature, inner listening, and love in action that inspire life in Findhorn. A longer message connected to the essence of the elemental depicted can be found in the accompanying booklet. It also offers a suggestion for a spiritual practice to open communication and engage more deeply with the nature spirits. The cards call us to express a greater sensitivity toward all creation; to slow down, open our hearts, and fine-tune our perceptions to retrace our steps to a more authentic, alive, and lighter living on this planet. A potent tool for fine-tuning our intuitive senses as well as for self-discovery and healing, this deck is your invitation to reclaim wholeness and open to co-creation with the subtle realms. May it bring joy and light to your path.
Internationally renowned teacher Oscar Hofman uses 24 case studies to demonstrate how the rich symbolism and myths behind the fixed stars can add a deeper and more spiritual dimension to astrological chart delineation. Formula 1 driver Nikki Lauda had his notorious accident in which he suffered serious burns to his face, when the fixed star Achernar was activated by progression. This star is connected to the story of Phaeton who, overestimating his powers, tried to steer the solar chariot through the heavens, lost control and came down in flames. In the chart of Nicolai Tesla, unsurpassed genius in electrical design and invention, the Sun is on the fixed star Castor on the IC; Castor is the dying brother of the famous heavenly twins Castor and Pollux. One of the critical events in Tesla’s youth was the death of his elder brother who was killed by a horse. The heavenly Twins, represented in the zodiac by the sign Gemini, are known as horse tamers.
