  • Richard Bach made a promise, fifty years before, to return to the frightened child he used to be and teach him everything he had learned from living.  His promise went unfulfilled until one day, hovering between earth and sky, Richard encounters Dickie Bach, age nine - irrepressible challenger of every notion Richard embraces...In this spiritual adventure, Richard and Dickie probe the timeless questions both need answered if either is to be whole: Why does growing spiritually mean never growing up? Can we peacefully coexist with the consequences of our choices? Why is it that only by running from safety can we make our wildest dreams take flight?
  • Was there once a race of beings which were only partly human? If so, what became of them and where are they now? Here is a compelling scenario - if we are willing to consider the possibility of their existence. Here is an unusual dramatisation of the fierce battle between God's intention for Man and Satan's scheme to destroy it.
  • The once-isolated pagan community is finding new ways to make connections via the Internet and here is an unconventional look at Pagan-relevant topics, such as: weaving a new web for the ancient/future religion of Witchcraft; manipulating energy via electronic communication; accessing intuition in cyberspace; finding and creating  a sacred space online.
  • Book only. The Major and Minor Arcana names and suites are the same as most standard Tarot decks, with the exception of The Suite of Hearts, which is usually known as Cups. A helpful book for those just beginning to learn the art of Tarot reading. Beautifully illustrated with clear explanations of each card and chapters on how to prepare for a reading, interpretation and suggested card layouts. Suitable for use with any Tarot deck.
  • New perspectives from an old friend...and gentle reminders that we have a say in our destiny.  To have the life we want, we must embrace and move with Their vision. The secret to manifesting change is not to focus on the how - but to focus on  what it is you want and to live as if you already had it. Then the entire Universe will conspire on your behalf, rearranging the players and circumstances of your life to so-called 'accidents', coincidences and luck.
  • For everything that exists, there is someone, somewhere, who is deathly afraid of it.  Such as pupaphobia  (fear of puppets) ; biniphobia (terror of twins) and ecdysiaphobia (scared of strippers).  Even the rich and famous have their terrors:  Actress Betty Grable was terrified of crowds; Roger '007' Moore fears firearms (!)  and Daniel Radcliffe a.k.a "Harry Potter" can't stand clowns (coulrophobia).  A fascinating peek into our psyche that not only names our fears but explains them.
  • An excellent introduction to the Runes in their aspect of healing and insight; how to learn their language; how to 'hear' what they are telling you and how to interpret the messages the give you as a means of communications with the subconscious mind. They are regarded as oracular rather than being a way of 'fortune-telling' -an oracle does not give you instruction on how to proceed, nor does it predict the future: instead, the Oracle points your attention towards those hidden fears and motivations that will shape your future by their unfelt presence and will direct your attention to the realm of choice. This book will tell you what is an appropriate  issue, upright and reversed interpretations; the art of Rune casting; keeping a Rune journal; the legacy of the Runes and Magic in the present tense.
  • A volume from the Predictions Library that covers all things runic - including Norse mythology, the history of the Runes, the Elder Futthark, Frey's Aett, Hagal's Aett and Tyr's Aett; different casts and spreads; making your own Runes; Runescript; and other associations such as gemstones, flower and tree. Beautifully illustrated.
  • The author has collected together the most essential spells for every occasion in a full year of workings in the Craft.  As well as celebrating the Sabbats, Esbats and workings for other times in the lunar cycle, there are hints, tips and advice for the modern witch in the real world.  A good book for beginners or advanced practitioners seeking new ideas.
  • Cry Havoc introduced Beverley Nichols as an advocate of peace. The Fool Hath Said - as well as being his personal spiritual journey - gives his advocacy of Christianity in a modern world.He presents his belief convincingly, taking the hurdles one at a time to end with a newly defined attitude toward his own religious concepts. He successfully conveys why there is a need for faith, that faith is possible and can be applied to modern problems and has done it with reverence and sincerity. He  was an Oxford Group member and in the chapter Crusaders Of 1936, he states 'Though this book is not a record of the Oxford Group, it would be incomplete unless I paid tribute to this amazing movement. For though I...had found that Christ was indeed God, it was not until I went to a meeting of the Oxford Group that I found, once again, the friend whom I earlier rejected.'
  • In the sacred literature of the world there is preserved the teaching of a Way or a Path, known to seekers of all ages, referred to in Holy Scripture as well as in mystical texts and although its description varies, it is always referred to as the one sure means of divine realisation. This book is concerned with outlining a Way, a process of transforming Man’s entire being through its expression in symbols and stages common to all great spiritual traditions. The Wheel, the Wilderness, the Spiral, the Labyrinth, the Rose, the Tree, the Fire and the Light are such images which are all produced and reacted to spontaneously by those who travel the path of Transcendence. This copy is the updated and revised second edition dated 1980.

  • The new spiritual 'supermarket' of today brings both perils and opportunities. This book is the result of a major and lengthy study conducted at the Centre for Study of New Religious Movements (California) on the topic of spiritual tyranny versus legitimate spiritual authority, including articles and interviews from many luminaries of inner transformations.  It will sharpen the seeker's ability to recognise valid approaches to inner spiritual development and provides enabling to choose a suitable spiritual path and group with discrimination.

  • The message of this book is very simple: Right now, you can be happier. More things won't do it. Even a great relationship may not save you. The focus here is on the only place where real change can happen: in how you see yourself and relate to other people. The book uses practical guidance and warm, realistic inspiration to show clearly that while you can't always choose what happens in your life, you can choose your responses, values and behaviors - and the results are life changing. Here are skills and insights across all areas, from your most intimate relationships to your friendships, extended family, work and community. Psychologically positive and astute, it also looks at the big spiritual questions that let you value your life rather than just spending it. Small changes bring BIG results. 
  • Sarah Ban Breathnach wanted to offer men the same reflective book that she offered women in Simple Abundance. Yet, she also knew that she needed a man to help her represent an authentic male experience, a book that mined beneath the "Men Are from Mars" stereotypes and "Iron John" expectations. So she joined forces with Michael Segell, former "Men's Mind" columnist for Esquire and author of Standup Guy. From there, the duo gathered these contemplative, humorous, and mature essays written by a diverse sampling of men, including a backwoods hermit, mystical rabbi and world renowned rock star. Segell writes the poignant introductions to the essays while Ban Breathnach inserts her personal responses at the end of particularly provocative essays. At times she sounds like an interloper in a "boy's only" tree fort club, her comments sounding out of place within these private moments of male bonding. Yet she forces readers, men and women alike, to acknowledge the feminine within the male experience, a goal that we tend to resist.

After various healing attempts, he went into the wilderness to fast and pray - and then he was given a revelation and an inspired discovery of a unique combination of herbs which allowed thorough cleansing and revitalisation of his internal organs.

  • What you think and what you believe has a profound effect on what you do and how you do it. You can achieve - when you believe. If you think you can't - then you never will.

Here is the how-to: how to change the way you think, setting goals, expanding your thinking and twelve principles to get you on the road to the life you deserve.
