During the mid-thirties in Paris, Gurdjieff drew together four women: Solita Solano, Kathryn Hulme, Alice Rohrer and Elizabeth Gordon -- and formed a special, mutually supporting work group.

In allegory he explained: You are going on a journey under my guidance, an "inner-world journey" like a high mountain climb where you must be roped together for safety, where each must think of the others on the rope, all for one and one for all. You must, in short, help each other "as hand washes hand," each contributing to the company according to her lights, according to her means. Only faithful hard work on yourselves will get you where I want you to go, not your wishing.

Among themselves they called their foursome "The Rope."

The company around Gurdjieff's table, his principal teaching site, soon expanded to include Louise Davidson, Margaret Anderson, Georgette Leblanc and Jane Heap.

Here, the Hierophant becomes the High Priest, Wheel of Fortune becomes Wheel of the Year, and Judgement becomes Karma.

The book is a telepathic communication between myself and Dar, a evolved human from 23 million years in the future, as well as several other guides, spiritual and otherwise, from various future time periods. Although most of the contact is through Dar, several of his companions, from various timelines from a few centuries to over 1000 million years in the future have made some observations about various time periods. The book covers technology, spirit guides, singularities, timelines, evolution, time travel, parallel worlds, future cities and other realities. It also covers altered states of consciousness, the 2012 event, space travel, time lines, advanced data storage, power generation, future history and my notes. There is discussion in time and the nature of reality, as well as technological development and where it is leading us into the future. It is about possibilities, and I do not mean it to be either a positive or negative statement, but an observation of what is. I hope the book will encourage some people to objectively seek out alternative possibilities.

Originally, the Sirius System contained two large stars, blue-white Sirius A (Isis), still the brightest star in our nighttime sky, and red-giant Sirius B (Osiris). Both were visible from Earth. Circling these stars was a large planet, the "offspring" of these two stellar "deities": Horus, or Planet X Nibiru. This planet was inhabited by "Saurians" who possessed an advanced technology, including space travel. When red-giant Sirius B imploded and collapsed into its presently invisible neutron-dwarf state, shockwaves from this momentous occurrence catapulted Planet X Nibiru from the Sirius System into our own nearby Solar System. This cataclysm clearly happened within our recorded history, and it is the primary purpose of this book to explore that event.

Now comes Krans's next deck in her bestselling series, THE WILD UNKNOWN ALCHEMY DECK AND GUIDEBOOK. This stunning oracle deck reveals insights into the ancient mysteries of alchemy: the metaphorical process of turning lead (unconsciousness) into gold (enlightenment). Alchemy is the doorway to the imagination and self-discovery. You do not need to be an expert in metals, symbols, astrology, or Latin to become an alchemist. Whether a baker, mechanic, surgeon, seamstress, or surfer-those who become masters of their materials are all alchemists. The magic of Alchemy is available to anyone who is willing to explore, observe, and invoke transformation. Paired with a 224-page, hand-lettered, fully illustrated guidebook written and designed by Kim Krans, THE WILD UNKNOWN ALCHEMY DECK includes 71 beautiful, easy-to-shuffle hexagon cards divided into six suits: The Cosmic Forces, The Colors, The Seasons, The Materials, The Mysteries, and The Operations. Illustrated in Krans's iconic style of elegant line art and lush watercolor painting, each full-color card offers a tool for self-study and exploration, expressed through symbol, image, and language. The unique shape of the cards allows edges to meet and images to meld and transform, with all-new connecting spreads, including readings for revealing energetic and emotional blockages, identifying what is serving and what is draining, and much more. Through this profound experience of observing image, color, and materials with an alchemical perspective, new gifts and discoveries are revealed. This deck is a journey to awakening and reuniting us with what may be dormant or unseen as we begin to weave together the physical and mystical aspects of our lives.

Lawrence Kushner, whose previous books have opened up new spiritual possibilities, now tells us stories in a new literary form.

Through his everyday encounters with family, friends, colleagues and strangers, Kushner takes us deeply into our lives, finding flashes of spiritual insight in the process.
