After a terrible year, feeling burned out and broken, Emma Howarth decided to go on a year-long mystical adventure - from the comfort of her own home. The result was a year that changed everything. A year that turned frantic chaos into life in the slow lane. A year of magic and moonlight and pink sky sunrises. A year fragranced with incense and burning herbs (that sometimes smelled suspiciously illegal).

Each month she introduces a new spiritual practice, with practical, actionable tips - from how to create the perfect vision board to living by the phases of the moon.

Book Description
A down-to-earth landscape artist from Detroit, Patrick Slavich returns to the family home in the northern Michigan town of Ironwood, where his greatgrandfather settled many years ago. After divorcing his wife, Patrick looks forward to his return to his family's home, because it's where he will be able to relax and enjoy the unspoiled natural beauty of Michigan's Upper Peninsula. The millions of stars that glisten up against the black velvet, that coat the oh so silent night. The crispness in the air that is so rich, one could almost drink it like a cool refreshing glass of water after a long hot day in the heat of July. One day, Patrick stops at an antique store to have his palm read, the man reading his palm seems to be getting a lot of facts about his life right. But how could he have known these things, will his predictions for the future come true? Soon, a sinister family secret reveals itself, altering his memories of the past and threatening his future. Jacob White, the palm reader, is a supernatural force from the "old country" who has preyed upon the Slavich family for centuries. Now, he returns to eliminate Patrick and everything that he holds dear.

Book Description
Magical Transformations on the Early Modern Stage furthers the debate about the cultural work performed by representations of magic on the early modern English stage. It considers the ways in which performances of magic reflect and feed into a sense of national identity, both in the form of magic contests and in its recurrent linkage to national defence; the extent to which magic can trope other concerns, and what these might be; and how magic is staged and what the representational strategies and techniques might mean. The essays range widely over both canonical plays-Macbeth, The Tempest, The Winter’s Tale, The Merry Wives of Windsor, Doctor Faustus, Bartholomew Fair-and notably less canonical ones such as The Birth of Merlin, Fedele and Fortunio, The Merry Devil of Edmonton, The Devil is an Ass, The Late Lancashire Witches and The Witch of Edmonton, putting the two groups into dialogue with each other and also exploring ways in which they can be profitably related to contemporary cases or accusations of witchcraft. Attending to the representational strategies and self-conscious intertextuality of the plays as well as to their treatment of their subject matter, the essays reveal the plays they discuss as actively intervening in contemporary debates about witchcraft and magic in ways which themselves effect transformation rather than simply discussing it. At the heart of all the essays lies an interest in the transformative power of magic, but collectively they show that the idea of transformation applies not only to the objects or even to the subjects of magic, but that the plays themselves can be seen as working to bring about change in the ways that they challenge contemporary assumptions and stereotypes.

With more than 500 entries, it includes recording sessions, concerts, newsreel footage, press clips, TV and film performances, home movies, radio interviews, documentaries, studio outtakes, home demos, and alternative mixes–all of which are given complete coverage for the first time. Author John C. Winn has spent two decades poring over, scrutinizing, organizing, and analyzing hundreds of hours of audio and video recordings and compiling them into a digestible chronological framework, creating the ultimate reference guide to the Beatles’ legendary musical and cultural evolution.

Book Description
This is a book for mature men with high intrinsic immaturity who enjoy simple things in life; No effort has been made in being politically correct with regards to religion, gender, ethnicity or other sensitive matters of general concern. It is for those who still can laugh at a poo-story. The book, although harmless, could easily upset a lot of morality fixed individuals, especially the ethical ones. Consequently, they are advised to pick up another, more serious book, and leave this one where it is. The story is that of a teenage foreign student in England during the 1970's, spanning over a few years. It starts with the time in an English boarding school. After getting expelled at the age of sixteen he moves into a house with three other teenagers and starts high school studies. The university studies follow and life experiences flourish. It is more or less a collection of stories you might tell a friend in a pub. Stories with high a level of juvenescence with very little philosophical repercussions.
