* Four wooden illustrated dice: Shake up your spells and rituals
with these four six-sided dice that provide: - An intention (Will
your spell be for love, passion, money, protection, confidence, or
healing?) - A type of magic (Will you use divination, astrology,
kitchen magic, glamour magic, colour magic, or bath magic?) - A
magical tool (Will you enhance your spell with tarot, candles,
incense, potions, crystals, or the moon?) - A tip to guide you
(Work with a deity, or cleanse your space before beginning, for
example.) * Illustrated mini book included: This unique set also
comes with a mini book to guide your interpretation and teach you
the meaning of each of the dice's sides. * Perfect gift for the
witch-curious: A great way to get started with spellwork for the
witchily-inclined who don't yet know their way around a ritual.
"An Introduction to the Metaphysics of St. Thomas Aquinas" is an
accessible Aquinas and a solid entry into his work. The format is
manageable, and the scope, appropriately limited. James F.
Anderson's skillful collection and lucid translation makes the
pleasure of reading Aquinas available as it has not been before.
Discover and harness the magic of cannabis and get wicked high, in
this first-of-its-kind guide to weed in witchcraft. Cannabis and
magic are woven together throughout history, and there has never
been a better time to embrace your inner weed witch. In this
comprehensive guide and spellbook, practicing witch and cannabis
writer Sophie Saint Thomas explores the beautiful relationship
between the two, offering everything you need to use marijuana in
all its forms to awaken your inner magic, enhance your practice,
care for your body and soul, and reach your highest self. Weed
Witch explores the foundations of witchcraft and a complete
cannabis rundown so everyone from beginners to experts on both
subjects can blend them safely for optimal harmony. In these pages,
you'll learn to use weed to magnify and augment your relationship
with astrology, tarot, crystals, moon magic, and much more. The
book also contains an exhaustive compendium of stoned spells for
love and sex, money and work, protection and healing, and of
course, fun.
The Book of Causes, highly influential in the medieval university,
was commonly but incorrectly understood to be the completion of
Aristotle's metaphysics. It was Thomas Aquinas who first judged it
to have been abstracted from Proclus's Elements of Theology,
presumably by an unknown Arabic author, who added to it ideas of
his own. The Book of Causes is of particular interest because
themes that appear in it are echoed in the metaphysics of Aquinas:
its treatment of being (esse) as proceeding from the First Creating
Cause; the triadic scheme of being, living, and knowing; and the
general scheme of participation in which "all is in all." Thus, the
Book of Causes provides a historical backdrop for understanding and
appreciating Aquinas's development of these themes in his
metaphysics. Thomas's Commentary on the Book of Causes, composed
during the first half of 1272, is a distinct philosophical work in
its own right. It provides an extended view of his approach to
Neoplatonic thought and functions as a guide to his metaphysics.
Though long neglected and, until now, never translated into
English, it deserves an equal place alongside his commentaries on
Aristotle and Boethius. In addition to the extensive annotation,
bibliography, and thorough introduction, this translation is
accompanied by two valuable appendices. The first provides a
translation of another version of proposition 29 of the Book of
Causes, which was not known to St. Thomas. The second lists
citations of the Book of Causes found in the works of St. Thomas
and cross-references these to a list showing the works, and the
exact location within them, where the citations can be found.
Among the great works of Thomas Aquinas, the ""Commentary on the
Sentences of Peter Lombard"" has suffered almost total neglect
among translators. Such neglect is surprising, considering that the
massive Commentary - more than 4,000 pages in the last printed
edition - is not only Aquinas' first systematic engagement with all
the philosophical and theological topics on which he expended his
energy over the span of a short career but is also characterized by
an exuberance and elaborateness seldom found in his subsequent
writings. Although Chenu had already drawn attention decades ago to
the importance of studying this youthful tour de force for a fuller
understanding of Thomas' more mature work, the ""Commentary on the
Sentences"" has remained a closed book for many modern students of
Thomistic and medieval thought because of its relative
inaccessibility in English or in Latin.The present volume,
containing all the major texts on love and charity, makes available
what is by far the most extensive translation ever to be made from
the Commentary with the added benefit that the better part of the
translation is based on the (as yet unpublished) critical edition
of the Leonine Commission. The collection of texts from all four
books has a tight thematic coherence that makes it invaluable to
students of Thomas' moral philosophy, moral theology, and
philosophical theology. In addition, the inclusion of parallel
texts from Aquinas' first (Parisian) Commentary as well as from his
second (Roman) attempt at a commentary, the recently rediscovered
""Lectura Romana"", makes this edition all the more valuable for
those who wish to track the internal development of Thomas'
thinking on these matters.The new availability of so many rich
passages from the ""Commentary on the Sentences"" will encourage
and facilitate use of a magnificent resource that deserves to be
better known.
