Imprisoned in a remote Turkish POW camp during the First World War,
two British officers, Harry Jones and Cedric Hill, cunningly join
forces. To stave off boredom, Jones makes a handmade Ouija board
and holds fake seances for fellow prisoners. One day, an Ottoman
official approaches him with a query: could Jones contact the
spirits to find a vast treasure rumoured to be buried nearby?
Jones, a lawyer, and Hill, a magician, use the Ouija board - and
their keen understanding of the psychology of deception-to build a
trap for their captors that will lead them to freedom. The
Confidence Men is a nonfiction thriller featuring strategy, mortal
danger and even high farce - and chronicles a profound but unlikely
friendship.
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.
In The Spirited Kitchen, practicing witchcraft means nurturing a
relationship with the seasons and drawing on ancestral roots to
find magic in small details. Here, simple ingredients-apples,
hazelnuts, wheat-become magical elements of cooking and ritual
crafting. The result is an enchanting culinary journey through the
pagan Wheel of the Year, from the Halloween festivities of Samhain
to the return of autumn at Harvest Home. With each season, readers
can cook feast dinners to celebrate nature's cycles. In winter,
Cranberry Custard Tarts encourage health and well-being; in spring,
Deep Dish Nettle Quiche ushers in resilience after cold months and
Calendula Chicken embodies the abundance of summer. Along the way,
ritual crafts like Salt Spells, hand-woven Offering Baskets and a
Maypole Chandelier bring extra symbolism to the table. Complete
with stunning photographs and a glossary of spirited symbols and
ingredients, this book is a bewitching guide to seasonal magic.
Suppose there is something going on in the universe which is to
ordinary, everyday reality as our unconcious is to our daily lives?
Softly, but unmistakably guiding it. Most of the time, we are
unaware of it. Yet, every now and then, on account of some fluke,
we are startled by the results of its presence. We realize we have
been part of something with neither consciousness nor consent. It
is so sweet and then it is gone. You say, But I don t believe in
God. And I ask, What makes you think it matters to God?" from
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. Such otherwise
ordinary moments as fighting with his children, shopping for
bargain basement clothes, or just watching a movie are revealed to
be touchstones for the sacred.
This is a book where literature meets spirituality, where the
sacred meets the ordinary, and, above all, where people of all
faiths, all backgrounds can meet one another and themselves.
Kushner ties together the stories of our lives into a roadmap
showing how everything ordinary is supercharged with meaning if we
can just see it.
Money, magic and the theatre were powerful forces in early modern
England. Money was acquiring an independent, efficacious agency, as
the growth of usury allowed financial signs to reproduce without
human intervention. Magic was coming to seem Satanic, as the
manipulation of magical signs to performative purposes was
criminalized in the great 'witch craze.' And the commercial, public
theatre was emerging - to great controversy - as the perfect medium
to display, analyse and evaluate the newly autonomous power of
representation in its financial, magical and aesthetic forms. Money
and Magic in Early Modern Drama is especially timely in the current
era of financial deregulation and derivatives, which are just as
mysterious and occult in their operations as the germinal finance
of 16th-century London. Chapters examine the convergence of money
and magic in a wide range of early modern drama, from the anonymous
Mankind through Christopher Marlowe to Ben Jonson, concentrating on
such plays as The Alchemist, The New Inn and The Staple of News.
Several focus on Shakespeare, whose analysis of the relations
between finance, witchcraft and theatricality is particularly acute
in Timon of Athens, The Comedy of Errors, Antony and Cleopatra and
The Winter's Tale.
Every day we experience situations where we are exposed to
uncertainties, mental or emotional disturbances, positive or
negative stress. Everything we go through leaves a mark on our
personal story. Some are uplifting positive memories, others are
painful to a degree that we suppress them in order to escape the
trauma. Each detail of our personal story reveals part of who we
are and what blocks our growth. In these spheres of our personal
stories we hide our deepest beliefs, concepts, feelings and
thoughts that all affect the way we look at life, each other and
ourselves. This often generates diseases in our mental, emotional
or physical bodies. The Song of Life Healing Matrix provides you
with the unique tools to bring to light the deepest details of your
of own song of life. This highly effective tool contains the
teachings from eight representatives of the Divine Mother-the
ascended masters who represent the divine Feminine for planet
earth. They address the blocks to your personal healing and
introduce a highly effective tool for sound healing in the form of
the Song Life. The eight invocations that you can easily learn,
allow you to call forth the following types of healing: The
transformation of your sense of identity so you realize you are a
spiritual being in a human body. The clearing of your mental body
from all blocking illusions and destructive thought patterns. The
healing of emotional wounds and the release of the accumulated
negative feelings that reinforce self-destructive reactionary
patterns. The healing of the organs and systems in your physical
body from any disease. The healing of all lack of balance that
prevents you from manifesting your goals in life. The healing of
all sense of lack that block the manifestation of a spiritually and
materially abundant life. The healing of all blocks to your
acceptance of unconditional love and the flow of love through your
being. The healing of the denial of your true identity as a
co-creator with God and the fact that we are all are part of the
Divine Feminine.
