Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is no doubt at all that when young Frank Willoughby brought out his book with him, and seated himself on the trunk of the old fallen tree, he meant to read it; but this intention had soon been abandoned, and, at the moment our tale commences, the book lay on the grass at his feet, and Frank was dreaming. He was not asleep, not a bit of it; his eyes were as wide open as yours or mine are at this moment; but there was a far-away look in them, and you could tell by the cloud that seemed to hang on his lowered brow that his thoughts were none of the pleasantest. He was not alone, at least not quite, for, not a yard away from his feet, there sat gazing up into his face—why, what do you think? A great toad! Do not start; men in solitude have taken up with stranger companions than this. And Frank was solitary, or at least he conceived himself to be so; and day after day he left his home on the borders of the great forest of Epping, and wandered down here into the depths of the wood, and seated himself idly on that log as we see him now. The toad had come to know him, and he to know the toad. He even brought crumbs for him, which the batrachian never failed to discuss, and seemed to enjoy. So the two took a kindly interest in each other’s welfare. On this particular forenoon the summer sun was very bright; it shimmered down through the trees like a shower of gold, it glittered on the grass-stems, it brightened the petals of the wild flowers, and burnished the backs of myriads of beetles, as they opened their cloaks and tried to fly in it. No wonder that on this glorious morning the birds sang in every tree, and that the happy hum of insect life was everywhere around. “Well, old gentleman,” said Frank at last, addressing the toad, “you are like myself, I think; you are not over happy.” “Pooh!” the toad seemed to reply. “I’m enjoying the sunshine and the free, fresh air, ain’t I? My house isn’t many yards round the corner. I’m a jolly old bachelor, that’s what I am, and there’s no life like it. No, I’m not unhappy, if you are. Pooh!” “Heigho!” sighed Frank.

Download or read book Notes from a Diviner in the Postmodern World written by Theresa C. Dintino and published by Theresa C. Dintino. This book was released on 2016-06-16 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does it mean to bring indigenous wisdom to the postmodern world? How do divination and ritual fit into modern society? How does one integrate ancient spiritual teachings into a western mindset while remaining true to the original meaning? Notes from a Diviner in the Postmodern World: A Handbook for Spirit Workers is a guidebook for both diviners and spirit workers of any tradition. In this book Dintino describes what she calls the landscape of the otherworld, revealed to her through spirits—ancestors, archangels, elemental and light beings—in her divinations. Whatever your spiritual tradition, there’s always a shared landscape of the otherworld. Understanding the landscape will help you navigate your own spiritual terrain. Learning how to be an effective diviner and spirit worker also means that you must interact fully with the wisdom of the place where you live, which includes learning from all living things including mountains and water. This powerful handbook teaches you how to heal your world by exploring inter-dimensional realms and ultimately becoming a spiritual steward of the Earth. “When I became a diviner, I did not expect to encounter a landscape in the otherworld that I would become familiar with and navigate more easily as I continued to divine. I am still exploring this landscape, but wanted to share some of the things I have learned in order to help those interested in the dimensional realms understand better what they are seeing. What I have included in this book is not meant to be rigid; it is a conversation and a guide.”

When Emma finds a mysterious snow globe tucked away in her grandmother's attic, she discovers it’s more than a nostalgic relic—it’s the key to an enchanting winter wonderland and her role as its Keeper. But this magical realm is far from serene. A blizzard of conflict looms as the balance of the seasons teeters on the brink, threatened by the icy heart of the Snow Queen. Guided by her friends—Luna, a fierce young witch battling her own demons; Silverpaw, a cunning yet loyal guardian with a shadowed past; and Jack, a warm light in the coldest of moments—Emma must unlock the snow globe’s secrets before eternal winter consumes the realm and her world. As Emma uncovers the Snow Queen’s tragic past, she faces a harrowing choice: fight against the Queen’s relentless frost or help her rediscover the magic of harmony and hope. But will Emma’s growing connection to the snow globe and the wonderland’s magic be enough to restore the balance and save them all? A spellbinding tale of courage, friendship, and redemption, The Heart of Winter: Keeper of the Snow Globe sweeps readers into a breathtaking adventure where the beauty of winter holds secrets, and even the coldest hearts can find warmth. Perfect for fans of magical adventures, enchanting worlds, and timeless stories of self-discovery.
Download or read book A Not So Simple Mission written by Kerridwen Mangala McNamara and published by Rising Dragon Books. This book was released on 2023-07-05 with total page 559 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Evil Wizard Henig is dead. The Province of Taridawil has been freed from his curse. Surely, now Karana can hang up her shield and return to her real job as Head of the most important merchant House in the world. There's just one or two small problems: The unpleasant Lord Jaycoff of Mountainmeadow has a contract requiring Karana to marry one of his sons – though not Sir Ivan, her erstwhile Knight-Companion. Karana still doesn't understand why Ivan abandoned them to face Henig without him. And every noblemaiden in the Realm is angling to marry her other Knight-Companion, Sir Kefen, now that he is to be crowned Duke of Taridawil. Nevermind that Kefen actually kissed Karana on the turret of Taridawil Keep right after the pair of them slew Henig, broke his spell, and freed the province. And... nevermind that Kefen has been making sheep's eyes at Ivan for as long as she's known them. And vice versa. What they need is to let everything settle down and become old news, so a simple little mission for the trio of Knight-Companions to escort the Princess Royal to the Holy Isle to seek the Great Goddess' Blessing on her future reign should be the perfect getaway... Right?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a middle world between life and death, and Tess must navigate it to save her brother in this heart-wrenching story infused with the fractured and fantastical realms of Finnish mysticism. Axel and Tess are bewildered when a stranger shows up in their backyard accompanied by a giant brown bear, but before they can investigate the bizarre encounter, something more harrowing happens: their father is killed in a freak car accident. Now orphaned, Tess and Axel are shipped off to Finland to live with grandparents who they’ve never met, and are stunned to discover that the mysterious stranger with the bear has found them again. More stunning—they come to understand that this man isn’t really a man…he’s a keeper of souls. And the bear isn’t really a bear…it’s a ghost. Their mother’s ghost. Wandering, endlessly, searching for their father. Then the Keeper invites Axel, who is already fighting symptoms of muscular dystrophy, to join the path of the dead—and when Axel disappears into the deep snow, Tess knows she must find a way to follow. There are mysteries connected to this peculiar man, this keeper, and if she can untangle them, she might not only save her little brother, but also bring her parents peace.
Download or read book The Problem of a Chinese Aesthetic written by Haun Saussy and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 1995-01-01 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Problem of a Chinese Aesthetic calls for and applies a new model of comparative literature - one that, instead of taking for granted the commensurability of traditions and texts, gives incompatibility and contradiction their due. Exposing contemporary literary theory to the risks of ancient Chinese literature (and vice versa), this book considers a linked series of case studies. To what degree does the translation between languages and texts that we call comparative literature depend on allegory or translation within a single text or language? The author offers an important, new perspective on the reading of the Shih-ching or Book of Odes and the question of allegory and metaphor in the Chinese poetic tradition.
