Since the early 1990s, Lyssa Royal has wanted to somehow create a card system in which seekers could learn about their galactic heritage and their karmic influences. This 108-card divination system, based on material from Lyssa Royal's groundbreaking book The Prism of Lyra, is designed to help you tap into your star lineage and karmic patterns while revealing lessons brought to Earth from the stars and how those lessons can be used in your life on Earth now. In working with these cards, you can discover information about other lifetimes. You can tap into karmic lessons that you are still working on. The cards also contain information about how to apply the lessons in your life now as well as how to enhance your spiritual growth. They go far beyond just extraterrestrial information. The more you work with the cards, the more you will learn how to use them for yourself. Most of all, the cards will reflect aspects of the wonderful living hologram that you are.
A poignant-and delicious-compendium of South Carolina Jewish life revealed through food and storyWhere people go, so goes their food. In Kugels & Collards: Stories of Food, Family, and Tradition in Jewish South Carolina, Rachel Gordin Barnett and Lyssa Kligman Harvey celebrate the unique and diverse food history of Jewish South Carolina. They gather stories and recipes from diverse Jewish sources—Sephardic and Ashkenazi families who have been in the state for hundreds of years, descendants of Holocaust survivors, and more recent immigrants from Russia and Israel—and explore how cherished dishes were influenced by available ingredients and complemented by African American and regional culinary traditions. These stories are a vital part of the South's "Jewish geography" and foodways, stretching across state lines to shape southern culture. On the southern Jewish table, many cultures are savored. This lively collection includes more than eighty recipes from seventy contributors. Barnett and Harvey, drawing on family cookbooks and troves of personal recipes, highlight Jewish staples like kreplach dumplings and stuffed cabbage as well as southern favorites such as peach cobbler, modern fusions like grits and lox casserole, and of course kugels and collards. Fully illustrated with original and archival photographs, Kugels & Collards invites readers into family homes, businesses, and community centers to share meals and memories.

This book is concerned with the fiction and drama of the period, the poetry having been the subject of a separate book in the Writers and their Work series. Chapter one provides an overview of the women's movement between 1880-1919, and considers the diversity of feminist and female identities and lifestyles. The second chapter considers the representation of the woman artist in the context of debates on literary value and its relationship to gender and genre. Chapter three considers texts by a number of women writers, including novels and short stories, with a focus on the themes of motherhood, sexuality, eugenics, and imperialism. The final chapter extends the fin de siecle period in order to look and suffrage and other drama, with a focus on the leading woman playwright of the Edwardian ere, Elizabeth Robbins. The dramatic expression of themes addressed in the previous chapters is further explored here, especially motherhood and the emergence of women from sexual and domestic dependency.

The Prism of Lyra is a book that examines the idea of creation in a different light. In contrast to the notion that humans are the result of creation, it explores the idea that the collective humanoid consciousness (or soul) created our universe for specific purposes. What are those purposes? Who is involved? These questions and many more are addressed, resulting in startling possibilities. The Prism of Lyra then traces various off-planet races (Lyra, Vega, the Pleiades, Orion, Zeta Reticuli, and more) through their own evolution and ties them into the developing Earth. Highlighted is the realization of our galactic interconnectedness and our shared desire to return home.
