From energetic Aries to soothing Pisces, discover each zodiac sign’s “season” and learn how to tap into their unique magickal energies to enhance your life throughout the year.

Each of these twelve seasons brings different energies, influences, and experiences into the lives of human beings. Have you ever noticed that you feel particularly lively and social in August? That’s Leo season. Or a turn towards the dark side around Halloween? Scorpio season. As we move through the year, these seasonal vibes affect our lives in myriad unseen ways—now revealed for you here. In Seasons of the Zodiac, lifelong astrologer Stephanie Campos offers a complete guide to each astrological season of the year, telling you what to expect, when to expect it, and how to make the most of each season’s special and distinct time in the spotlight. Bursting with useful information, each chapter includes sections on: Your love life, according to the season Seasonal self-care How to manifest with each season New moon and full moon magick Season-specific magickal rituals Affirmations to bring in the season’s power And more! The book also includes a handy reference section at the end to get you started bringing a little zodiac magick into your daily practice, from the astrological connections of popular herbs to the best tarot spreads to use based on the lunar cycle. Comprehensive, accessible, and usable year and after, Seasons of the Zodiac is a practical primer on how to experience the full influence of the zodiac in your daily life—regardless of your particular sun sign. Beautifully illustrated and highly giftable, it’s the perfect book for budding astrologers, beginner witches, and anyone looking to connect more deeply with the cosmic cycles of the year.

Languages : en
Pages : 234
Book Description
The posture of every human heart should be one of awe, a life-altering amazement at the God of the universe. When we are immersed in awareness of His power and truth, we are able to live as He intended - confident that His glory will be the end result of our lives and the ultimate outcome of everything. (I Corinthians 15:28) My prayer is that the devotions of Living in Awe! will help us - by the grace of Jesus - to refuse to be consumed by our own selfish desires and a small view of God. Instead, we will realize that God stands ready to give us true satisfaction by sweeping us into His grand plan for the cosmos. I pray we will be caught up in His greatness and realize that peace comes when our hearts are fixed on who He is, for He is great and above all else! "Let all the earth fear the LORD; Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him." Psalm 33:8 As Founder and President of Hope and Passion Ministries, Shelli Prindle is a dynamic voice for the intellectual credibility and implications of a Christian worldview for every sphere of life. Shelli has been enthusiastically sharing God's Word with people of all ages for more than 25 years. She has served as both a teacher and administrator of Christian schools for 15 years and is currently on staff at Norwin Alliance Church. Shelli is a popular and engaging church, seminar, and conference speaker with recognized expertise in Christian leadership, apologetics, and education. She resides in Irwin, PA with her husband Jeff.

The Convent of Pleasure
Author: Margaret Cavendish
Publisher: Graphic Arts Books
ISBN: 1513221558
Category : Drama
Languages : en
Pages : 50
Book Description
The Convent of Pleasure (1868) is a closet drama by Margaret Cavendish. Intended for private performance rather than the stage, The Convent of Pleasure is a comedy that critiques the institution of marriage and explores the possibility of lesbian desire in a patriarchal society. Published under the author’s own name—a rare feat for a woman of her time—The Convent of Pleasure is a groundbreaking work of queer utopian literature that continues to inform and inspire artists and critics alike. “Put the case I should Marry the best of Men, if any best there be; yet would a Marry'd life have more crosses and sorrows then pleasure, freedom, or hapiness: nay Marriage to those that are virtuous is a greater restraint then a Monastery.” Tired of the ways of men, Lady Happy encourages her friends to join an experimental cloister devoted to feminine autonomy, friendship, and desire. Despite opposition from angry Monsieurs and the skeptical Madam Mediator, the woman forge a tight-knit group and seem prepared to defy the institution of marriage while pursuing romantic relationships with their fellow women. Before long, a mysterious Princess seeks entry to the convent. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Margaret Cavendish’s The Convent of Pleasure is a classic of English literature reimagined for modern readers.

Television Rewired
Author: Martha P. Nochimson
Publisher: University of Texas Press
ISBN: 0292759444
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
In 1990, American television experienced a seismic shift when Twin Peaks premiered, eschewing formulaic plots and clear lines between heroes and villains. This game-changing series inspired a generation of show creators to experiment artistically, transforming the small screen in ways that endure to this day. Focusing on six shows (Twin Peaks, with a critical analysis of both the original series and the 2017 return; The Wire; Treme; The Sopranos; Mad Men; and Girls), Television Rewired explores what made these programs so extraordinary. As their writers and producers fought against canned plots and moral simplicity, they participated in the evolution of the exhilarating new auteur television while underscoring the fact that art and entertainment don't have to be mutually exclusive. Nochimson also makes provocative distinctions between true auteur television and shows that were inspired by the freedom of the auteur series but nonetheless remained entrenched within the parameters of formula. Providing opportunities for vigorous discussion, Television Rewired will stimulate debates about which of the new television series since 1990 constitute “art” and which are tweaked “business-driven storytelling.”
