Download or read book The Language of the Moon for Beginners written by Harry Eilenstein and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2021-06-17 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In magic a special language is spoken - not the spells, not the old languages that nobody uses for thousands of years, not the language of grimoires ... but the language of images. This language is direct and sincere and true - it is what it is, it tells how it is, it shows the innermost essence of what is signified ... the words of this language are a reflection of what they point to. The language of magic needs the connection to what it wants, it must be accurate, without inner contradiction ... otherwise this language has no magical effect. The language of magic works in the subconsciousness - and the subconsciousness is not judgmental, it is not moral, it hides nothing, it sees everything ... and that is where magic works. The words of magic direct the life-force - and what is the life-force but the "substance" of the subconsciousness? ... therefore the language of the magicians must be a True Language. The language of magic in astrology is the Moon: the inner images, the dreams, the dream journeys, the visions, the symbols, the omens, the fairy tales, the myths ... the language of magic is the "Language of the Moon"

Download or read book The Book of Immediate Magic Part 1 written by Jacobus G. Swart and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-12-25 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The "Shadow Tree Series" comprises a unique collection of Western Esoteric studies and practices which Jacobus G. Swart, spiritual successor to William G. Gray and co-founder of the Sangreal Sodality, has actuated and taught over a period of forty years. In "The Book of Immediate Magic - Part 1" Jacobus G. Swart perpetuates the fundamental tenets of "Self Creation" in which it is maintained that the "Centre" establishes the "Circumference," and that personal reality is emanated in harmony with personal "Will." Hence this tome comprises an enhancement and expansion of the magical doctrines and techniques of Practical Kabbalah addressed in "The Book of Self Creation," "The Book of Sacred Names," and "The Book of Seals & Amulets." Jacobus Swart claims that working "Immediate Magic" is neither impossible nor difficult when we fully understand that consciousness is just one vast ocean, and that thoughts are the waves we make in it. It is all a matter of coordinating consciousness.

Download or read book Pages from the Past written by Carolyn Kitch and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2006-05-18 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American popular magazines play a role in our culture similar to that of public historians, Carolyn Kitch contends. Drawing on evidence from the pages of more than sixty magazines, including Newsweek, Rolling Stone, Black Enterprise, Ladies' Home Journal, and Reader's Digest, Kitch examines the role of journalism in creating collective memory and identity for Americans. Editorial perspectives, visual and narrative content, and the tangibility and keepsake qualities of magazines make them key repositories of American memory, Kitch argues. She discusses anniversary celebrations that assess the passage of time; the role of race in counter-memory; the lasting meaning of celebrities who are mourned in the media; cyclical representations of generational identity, from the Greatest Generation to Generation X; and anticipated memory in commemoration after crisis events such as those of September 11, 2001. Bringing a critically neglected form of journalism to the forefront, Kitch demonstrates that magazines play a special role in creating narratives of the past that reflect and inform who we are now.

Here be witches and wayward girls… In a town nestled in the Appalachian Mountains, Rachel Smith has found a new life tending a lush apple orchard. She’s safe within its grove. If her dreams are haunted by memories of her violent husband, that pain is soothed by fresh mountain air and apples that taste as sweet as honey. But Rachel wasn’t meant to live in the shadows. The orchard drew her to Morgan’s Gap to fulfill a purpose, and a tight-knit community of wisewomen who honor the old mountain traditions are ready to teach her. A world of magic awaits Rachel, one filled with new friendships and new love. Yet Rachel’s past is creeping in. A preacher with a familiar face has stormed into town, and his dangerous sermons may damn Rachel—and the people she’s come to love—to the flames. For more from Willa Reece, check out Wildwood Whispers.
