An ancient conversation for a modern audience - anyone who has ever
asked 'what is the purpose of life? or 'who am I?' will find
something in this book. The Bhagavad Gita has been around a long
time, but remains little known outside India. This edition sets out
to change that. The ancient Gita is a world text dealing with the
mysteries of life. At its heart is a conversation between the soul
and God. Ranchor Prime's version adopts a non-sectarian approach,
making the Gita relevant to those of all religions or none, and
emphasising the link between religion and self-development. It is
distinguished by its easy accessibility. His section-by-section
commentary opens the text to the spiritual seeker. He never loses
sight of the audience for his book, and that he wants his readers
to understand the Gita in a personal way.

This is a faery tarot with a difference, uncompromising in its
portrayal of faeries as they really are: sly, frequently cruel,
cleverer than humans and full of secrets, rather than the
whimsical, sweet-natured creatures beloved of the Victorians and
the New Age. It's the world of Christina Rossetti's Goblin Market,
a place where all denizens of the Otherworld come to buy and sell,
to mingle and exchange gossip. It is a place unsafe for humans. But
imagine if you could look through a window onto the scene, as
Christina Rossetti does in her poem? Imagine the beings you would
see there ... Here is a tarot of wit and wickedness, of challenge
and uncertainty, of wonder and truth. This 80-card deck with
176-page guidebook offers as the Major Arcana a gallery of strange
and wonderful creatures, from the Faery Queen to the Wiseman, plus
intriguing motifs from the poem, such as the Secret Way and the
Fallen Tree. Minor suits represent magical implements, fruits,
flowers and elements. Enter a haunted, magical world - an
enchanting landscape of falling towers, crumbling walls and tangled
woods, of streams tumbling amongst mossy stones, of fallen trees
and bones threaded with vines and spiked roses. Prepare to be
enspelled ... and to discover the answers to your questions and
dilemmas.
