Book excerpt: Product DescriptionWhat is, "Authentic Magic"? It's not stage magic, slight of hand, illusion or witchcraft. No, Authentic Magic is the natural magic of the human spirit. It's the natural magic of life. Human beings are Centers Of Energy and energy attracts. What we attract depends on who we are being. We hold our entire lives inside of us as memories and emotions. That's a lot of energy. When one carries too much energy in the form of pain and sorrow, their magic seems to attract more of the same. And when one is able to release and let go of all that, life just seems to magically improve. Authentic Magic is also a term Jim uses to describe when the good stuff of life happens or shows up. Like when you're finally able to stop hurting over that thing. When you're able to overcome fear and move forward in life. When you find the answer to the problem. You win the prize, get the raise, start a successful business, meet your soulmate, increase your income, change your life! You know, the good stuff!Every single person on this earth is living in the magic. 95% do not know this. It's hard to see the magic of life when there are so many distractions.

"Living A Life Of Authentic Magic Using The Core Method" is about releasing all that and opening your mind to the possibility of the very real magic of your spirit and allowing it to flourish in your life so that more of the good stuff shows up. It's also about recognizing the blocks to your magic and giving you a simple but powerful method to remove those blocks so your magic flows freely for you. It's always there, just behind all the distractions you deal with every day. As you use The Core Method, you will begin to feel and see the effects of your magic. In little ways at first. Like when you rediscover that $20 bill in that pocket in the laundry or someone lets you in line in front of them. And in time, possibly in total life changes for the better. The kind of changes that bring in more of the things you hope and dream of. Authentic Magic is about living your best life. The Core Method is a way to make that happen.

Download or read book Magic in the Middle Ages written by Richard Kieckhefer and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2021-09-09 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How was magic practiced in medieval times? How did it relate to the diverse beliefs and practices that characterized this fascinating period? This much revised and expanded new edition of Magic in the Middle Ages surveys the growth and development of magic in medieval Europe. It takes into account the extensive new developments in the history of medieval magic in recent years, featuring new material on angel magic, the archaeology of magic, and the magical efficacy of words and imagination. Richard Kieckhefer shows how magic represents a crossroads in medieval life and culture, examining its relationship and relevance to religion, science, philosophy, art, literature, and politics. In surveying the different types of magic that were used, the kinds of people who practiced magic, and the reasoning behind their beliefs, Kieckhefer shows how magic served as a point of contact between the popular and elite classes, how the reality of magical beliefs is reflected in the fiction of medieval literature, and how the persecution of magic and witchcraft led to changes in the law.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gritty urban fantasy adventure set in an alternate noir 1930s, Book Three in the Grimnoir chronicles. Only a handful of people in the world know that mankind's magic comes from a living creature, and it is a refugee from another universe. The Power showed up here in the 1850s because it was running from something. Now it is 1933, and the Power's hiding place has been discovered by a killer. It is a predator that eats magic and leaves destroyed worlds in its wake. Earth is next. Former private eye, Jake Sullivan, knows the score. The problem is hardly anyone believes him. The world's most capable Active, Faye Vierra, could back him up, but she is hiding from the forces that think she is too dangerous to let live. So Jake has put together a ragtag crew of airship pirates and Grimnoir knights, and set out on a suicide mission to stop the predator before it is too late.
