Book excerpt: Garbed In Green is a thought-provoking guide that helps Gay men reclaim their rightful place as magical workers. This brief but comprehensive work draws on research from various fields (including anthropology, history, and psychology) to help reclaim the Male Mysteries for the modern Gay witch. It reveals the core spiritual truth that Gay men were prized as magical workers, shamanic figures, and priests for our ancestors, and it argues that most of the pain and "damage" experienced by the modern Gay Community can be healed if Gay men re-embrace their natural spiritual gifts. While this book is written with the Gay male witch in mind, its wisdom is not limited to Gay men. Whether you are a Straight man, the High Priest or High Priestess of a coven, or you're simply someone who takes an interest in the male polarity within your magical and spiritual practices, Garbed In Green can help you connect with those energies on a deeper level.
Download or read book The Male Mysteries written by Nikki Dorakis and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2014 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nikki Dorakis (1954-2013) was a Pagan Priest and an ordained Minister of the Church of Spiritual Humanism. Concerned with what he saw as a lack of spiritual guidance and the effect of modern societal changes on the male psyche, he began to explore the role of a Pagan Rite of Passage for young men and how this could be used to develop positive attitudes, qualities and attributes to the benefit of the individual, their community, and society as a whole. This unique text is drawn from his years of experience as an occultist, his own faith and the teachings of various spiritual seekers he met during extensive travels undertaken throughout his life. The text gives in-depth instructions on how to perform such Rites, but also explores what it really means to be a man; stripping away the stereotypes of male aggression and dominance, and discusses how a pagan rite of passage combined with the development of an ethical code can enable men to embrace and develop their multifaceted nature to stand within their own power and play a fulfilling role within society, to the benefit of all.

Under tremendous pressure to solve the case before it erupts into increased violence on the streets, Wyndham and his two new colleagues—arrogant Inspector Digby and Sergeant Banerjee, one of the few Indians to be recruited into the new CID—embark on an investigation that will take them from the opulent mansions of wealthy British traders to the seedy opium dens of the city.

Many people still live in a past experience that hinders them from living in an abundant future. Abundant living comes in different ways depending upon what we feel true abundance means. Material abundance is nice to have, but spiritual abundance is what we must have. One of today's buzz-phrases is 'if it ain't broke, break it.' There are mind-sets that haven't yet been broken that need to be broken. One in particular, God is punishing me and that's why I'm getting what I'm getting.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Gay male witch takes a good look at the occult aspects of what makes Gay dating so difficult. All dating is hard, but Gay dating seems to be especially problematic. Like women, Gay men suffer from the fairy tale curse. Unlike women, who only have to play the part of Cinderella, Gay men have to navigate between the roles of both Cinderella and Prince Charming. Cinderella, must focus on pleasing others (even at the expense of her sense of self). The Prince, on the other hand, is raised from birth to believe he is god's gift and that his suitor(s) should be thrilled that he showed up with the glass slipper in hand. This creates a truly cursed situation.Casey Giovinco, the author of Garbed In Green, tackles that very issue in this second book within his Gay Witchcraft & The Male Mystery Series. With the training of an academic philosopher, Casey analyzes the social and political situation that Gay men find themselves in when they embark on the perilous journey of dating each other. Once he identifies the problem as "the desire for Prince Charming," he applies occult wisdom to help his reader identify the part of their own desires that are fueling "the Gay dating curse" within their own love lives, and then, like a fairy godmother sent to rescue us from our lives of drudgery, he helps us cast our spells and work our own witchcraft to overcome the obstacles, which have held us back from finding happiness with each other.If you're a Gay male witch who wants to read a book on witchcraft that is written specifically for you or you want to cast spells that you don't have to translate from the heteronormative language we are all so mired in these days, this book is for you. If you are tired of the drama of Gay dating, this is the book for you. If you just want a good read, this book is for you.
Download or read book Mysteries of Sex written by Mary P. Ryan and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2009-01-06 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a sweeping synthesis of American history, Mary Ryan demonstrates how the meaning of male and female has evolved, changed, and varied over a span of 500 years and across major social and ethnic boundaries. She traces how, at select moments in history, perceptions of sex difference were translated into complex and mutable patterns for differentiating women and men. How those distinctions were drawn and redrawn affected the course of American history more generally. Ryan recounts the construction of a modern gender regime that sharply divided male from female and created modes of exclusion and inequity. The divide between male and female blurred in the twentieth century, as women entered the public domain, massed in the labor force, and revolutionized private life. This transformation in gender history serves as a backdrop for seven chronological chapters, each of which presents a different problem in American history as a quandary of sex. Ryan's bold analysis raises the possibility that perhaps, if understood in their variety and mutability, the differences of sex might lose the sting of inequality.
