Book excerpt: The intertwining of magic and sexuality has long been a source of fascination, intrigue, and controversy across cultures and throughout history. This book delves into the complex relationship between magic and sex, exploring how these two primal forces intersect, influence each other, and shape human experience. Drawing upon a multidisciplinary approach that incorporates insights from anthropology, psychology, folklore, and esoteric traditions, this book seeks to unravel the mysteries surrounding the enchantment of desire. It examines the role of magic in shaping sexual practices, beliefs, and taboos, as well as its impact on individual and collective perceptions of eroticism, intimacy, and power dynamics. Through an exploration of mythological narratives, historical accounts, and contemporary practices, this book illuminates the ways in which magic has been used to enhance sexual pleasure, attract partners, and navigate the complexities of romantic relationships. It also delves into the darker aspects of magical sexuality, including the use of love spells, aphrodisiacs, and sexual rituals for manipulation, control, and exploitation. Furthermore, this book investigates the psychological and spiritual dimensions of sexual magic, examining its potential for personal transformation, healing, and transcendence. It explores the concept of sexual energy as a potent force for creativity, spiritual awakening, and the cultivation of ecstatic states of consciousness. Finally, this book reflects on the ethical considerations and moral implications surrounding the practice of sexual magic, addressing issues of consent, boundaries, and the responsible use of power. It calls for a nuanced and holistic understanding of the intersection of magic and sexuality, one that recognizes both the potential for liberation and empowerment, as well as the risks of exploitation and harm.
Download or read book Adios Havana written by Andrew J. Rodriguez and published by Outskirts Press, Inc.. This book was released on 2005 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Havana . . . lilting rumbas, caf con leche, sultry sea breezes. Sparkling white beaches by day, scintillating nightclubs after dark. This sophisticated, international capital was the crown jewel of an island paradise-until the idealism that fed the Cuban Revolution yielded a nightmare of soul-crushing dictatorship. Adios, Havana is a true account of romance and peril, adventure and patriotism. Fueled by love-love of family, of country, and of each other-a young couple must face the most wrenching of choices: remain in the country they cherish, lose the wealth and position their families strove for generations to attain, and watch their children grow up impoverished under a terrifying regime; or risk escaping with no money or possessions and leave behind all they have ever known to begin a new life in a strange land. A legacy to future generations, this memoir is intended to remind readers of the fragility of freedom . . . to describe the disintegration of a prosperous civilized society and offer counsel on how to prevent a similar catastrophe from happening in America . . . and to show how and why penniless refugees flourish in the land of the free-why anyone who resists oppression would be driven to tell his beloved homeland, Adios.
Download or read book written by Catelin Hoover and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2009-08 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is Feng Shui merely an ancient philosophy direct from the Orient, like so many claims; or is it a subtle and potentially dangerous form of the occult? The practitioners of Feng Shui consult on commercial and residential interior design, architecture, landscaping, building construction, real estate, home staging, personal concerns, and a huge assortment of holistic and alternative forms of healing. They also teach, lecture, author books, as well as sell "Feng Shui" merchandise. But are they qualified, affordable and responsible? Feng Shui practitioners offer a huge smorgasbord of cures for healing everything from the common cold to cancer; and for maintaining optimal health and well-being. But how do the scientific and medical professions evaluate these health and healing methods? Similarly the alternative healing therapies used by those embracing Feng Shui philosophies - are these beneficial, dangerous or a hoax? What are the decorating methods and beliefs propagated by Feng Shui? How do these compare to the design theories established by Sherrill Whiton, the father of modern interior design? Should a Christian use Feng Shui methods to decorate their home or office? For the Christian, what are the considerations and the consequences if these methods are used in their home or office? How should the Christian respond to Feng Shui, it's practitioners and the many "services" provided by them? As you turn the pages of this book you will find answers to these questions that may surprise, alarm and disturb you as Feng Shui is carefully evaluated from a Christian perspective.

It also explores British cinema’s commentary on juvenile delinquency through a re-examination of such British films as The Blue Lamp, Spare the Rod and Serious Charge.

Download or read book We Are Not Good People written by Jeff Somers and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-10-07 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The ethics in a world of blood are gray--and an underground strata of blood magicians has been engineering disasters for centuries in order to acquire enough fuel for their spells. They are not good people. Some practitioners, however, use the Words and a swipe of the blade to cast simpler spells, such as Charms and Cantrips to gas up one dollar bills so they appear to be twenty dollar bills. Lem Vonnegan and his sidekick Mags fall into this level of mage, hustlers and con men all. Lem tries to be ethical by using only his own blood, by not using Bleeders or "volunteers." But it makes life hard. Soon they might have to get honest work. When the pair encounters a girl who's been kidnapped and marked up with magic runes for a ritual spell, it's clear they're in over their heads. Turning to Lem's estranged master for help, they are told that not only is the girl's life all but forfeit, but that the world's preeminent mage, Mika Renar, has earth-shattering plans for her-- and Lem just got in the way. With the fate of the world on the line, and Lem both spooked and intrigued by the mysterious girl, the other nominates him to become the huckleberry who'll take down Renar. But even if he, Mags, and the simpletons who follow him prevail, they're dealing with the kind of power that doesn't understand defeat, or mercy."--Amazon.com.
