Also known as "The Witch Hammer," The Malleus Maleficarum was a
handbook for hunting and punishing witches-written by Inquisitors
HEINRICH KRAMER (c. 1430-1505), an Alsatian clergyman, and JAMES
SPRENGER (c. 1436-1494), a Swiss monk-to assist the Inquisition and
Church in exterminating undesirables. Mostly a compilation of
superstition and folklore, the book was taken very seriously at the
time it was written in the 15th century and became a kind of
spiritual law book used by judges to determine the guilt of the
accused. While some of the articles covered in "The Witch Hammer"
are humorous to modern audiences, they were a matter of life and
death in the mid-1400's. Anyone interested in religion, the
Inquisition, or the witch hunts that ravaged Europe will find this
1928 translation, by MONTAGUE SUMMERS (1880-1948), an unbelievable
and enlightening read.
In this book, John George Hohman catalogues a lengthy list of folk
and herbal remedies, created to treat all manner of illnesses in
humans and pets. In the early 19th century, John George Hohman
worked as a book printer while also selling a variety of herbal
remedies. Uniting his dual professions by releasing a book about
the many remedies he'd encountered and sold, Hohman first released
the text in his native German, with an English edition following
later. The term 'Pow-Wows' was appended to a later edition, when
public interest in Native American medicines surfaced. After its
introduction and a variety of testimonials, Pow-Wows proceeds to
list more than two-hundred distinct folk remedies. Each entry
describes the maladies appropriate for the treatment, before
describing how to prepare and administer the remedy. Powdered and
fresh plant matter, oils, tinctures, and other items constitute
these remedies, which purport to work wonders on ailments both
acute and chronic.
Can a murdered person come back from the grave to tell her
autobiography through the voice of a psychic medium? During the
summer of 1980, a young Canadian beauty, Dorothy Stratten, and her
husband, Paul Snider, were murdered in Los Angeles under mysterious
circumstances and a shroud of cover-up. Many lives would change
drastically as people abandoned the Playboy ship en masse in the
aftermath. This book offers theological insight into sexual abuse,
hedonism, PTSD trauma, stress-related illness, human trafficking,
codependence and forgiveness.
Shamanism has always been of great interest to anthropologists.
More recently it has been "discovered" by westerners, especially
New Age followers. This book breaks new ground byexamining pristine
shamanism in Greenland, among people contacted late by Western
missionaries and settlers. On the basis of material only available
in Danish, and presented herein English for the first time, the
author questions Mircea Eliade's well-known definition of the
shaman as the master of ecstasy and suggests that his role has to
be seen as that of a master of spirits. The ambivalent nature of
the shaman and the spirit world in the tough Arctic environment is
then contrasted with the more benign attitude to shamanism in the
New Age movement. After presenting descriptions of their
organizations and accounts by participants, the author critically
analyses the role of neo-shamanic courses and concludes that it is
doubtful to consider what isoffered as shamanism.
What are we doing on planet earth? Why are we here? Did we evolve?
Or, are we created? Many of us, as we age, don't so easily accept
many philosophies and teachings about life. We come to realize the
degree to which truth is bent and shaped by special interests in
social, political, and religious affairs. After 40 years in the
making, In Search of Destiny brings to you a gripping scientific
and spiritual search for human destiny. Are we here to just be
born, grow old, and die on planet earth? Or, is there evidence
beyond this? In Search of Destiny draws a decisive conclusion.

In the first chapters of this book we simultaneously follow two
threads. While considering the lives of Richard Wagner, Friedrich
Nietzsche, and King Ludwig II of Bavaria in their
nineteenth-century incarnations and in earlier incarnations, we
examine the planetary configurations accompanying not only their
conception, birth, and death, but also various significant events
in their lives. In this way we experience how these two
perspectives-the biographical and the astrological-weave together
and are intimately interconnected. As illuminating as this is, the
author also indicates however that astrological calculation alone
can never suffice for the truly deep biographical research into
karma and reincarnation demonstrated in this work. The author shows
that although it is clear that an individual's destiny is connected
with the positions of the celestial bodies-that certain regular
occurrences are evident-nonetheless no strict regularities exist.
He maintains moreover that a certain level of clairvoyance is
requisite for any serious astrological study of destiny; even
more-that real astrology requires initiation. Such astrological
research, when successfully carried out as it is here, relating
salient celestial configurations to the life-drama of well-known
historical personalities, reads like fine literature. On a
practical level this work illustrates several important new tools
for the astrologer: how to calculate hermetic charts, how to cast
horoscopes not only of birth and death but also of conception
(including the astrological significance of the embryonic period
between conception and birth), and then also how to apply these
various horoscopes in describing the spiral of life that unfolds in
seven-year periods during the course of a person's earthly
existence. All this reveals profound and fascinating
regularities-among them the discovery that stellar configurations
during the embryonic period are reflected again and again in the
subsequent periods of life. Quite new for most readers will be the
author's treatment of Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto, indicating that
the names given these planets are deeply meaningful in the light of
spiritual science. To make his case he extends Rudolf Steiner's
description of cosmic evolution by drawing upon Greek mythology,
particularly Orphic cosmology. This book by Robert Powell is of the
greatest possible interest. Professor Konrad Rudni_ki Astronomical
