Book Description
DON'T MISS THIS FANTASTIC OPPORTUNITY TO FIND A FORTUNE DAVID VILLANUEVA, SHOWS HOW ANYONE CAN USE MODERN CAMERAS TO QUICKLY AND EASILY LOCATE BURIED AND HIDDEN TREASURE FROM A DISTANCE There is nothing new about the discovery that buried metals give off an aura that can be captured by certain cameras. Louis J Matacia promoted a certain Polaroid camera for years as a major tool for finding treasure, which was great, I found treasure myself using just such a tool. The problem now is that the camera is obsolete, although still readily available on the previously enjoyed market and competition from digital cameras forced Polaroid to stop making the film in 2005. So was that the end of using auras to locate buried treasure? Not at all! I set about trying to find a solution and came up with two! The first that I am going to tell you about is that owing to some enterprising former managers, Polaroid film is available again. The second solution that I will be describing in great detail is - wait for it - YOU CAN CAPTURE TREASURE AURAS WITH DIGITAL CAMERAS! Not collector's items like the Polaroid, mind you, but more recent models that you can buy almost anywhere tomorrow. And the digital camera works brilliantly. Auras can be obtained on gold down to a quarter of an ounce or less - that's a single coin or nugget! The camera can even discriminate between different metals - all from a distance and can be used anytime during daylight hours. By definition, instruments that can reveal hidden treasure from a distance are long-range locators. But I won't be talking about expensive commercial long-range locators that, in use, can be like searching a coal-bunker, in the middle of the night, trying to find a black cat that isn't there! This is long-range location at its best - showing you precisely where treasure is hidden. You really can see the color of the money (providing it is metallic or contained in metal) and what's more you can get started for much less than the cost of a commercial long-range locator - less than $100 at present - you may even already have most everything you need! Treasure auras are simply the appliance of science so you don't need any special gift to use these cameras - there is none of this hairy-fairy stuff about ordinary instruments producing extraordinary results in the hands of someone with psychic awareness. Hands-on is not even needed - hands-off is actually better! And, clearly, you have absolute discretion with this approach - you can take a camera almost anywhere and no one will have any idea that you are not just taking snapshots. Of course, you are not going to be able to buy a camera off the shelf and start taking photographs of treasure auras - if cameras naturally photographed auras, most folks would take them back to the store complaining about the photo quality. So you are going to need to do a few modifications. But don't worry, it is not rocket science - everything you need either plugs in, screws in or sticks on and all will be clearly explained. So for your modest investment in this manual and possibly some reasonable expenditure on equipment you will have the finest opportunity to find millions in buried and hidden wealth! This is a new, revised and expanded edition for 2017, although most of the essential information is unchanged from the original 2009 edition.

Egyptology: The Missing Millennium
Author: Okasha El Daly
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1315429764
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 259
Book Description
Egyptology: The Missing Millennium brings together for the first time the disciplines of Egyptology and Islamic Studies, seeking to overturn the conventional opinion of Western scholars that Moslims/Arabs had no interest in pre-Islamic cultures. This book examines a neglected period of a thousand years in the history of Egyptology, from the Moslem annexation of Egypt in the seventh century CE until the Ottoman conquest in the 16th century. Concentrating on Moslem writers, as it is usually Islam which incurs blame for cutting Egyptians off from their ancient heritage, the author shows not only the existence of a large body of Arabic sources on Ancient Egypt, but also their usefulness to Egyptology today. Using sources as diverse as the accounts of travelers and treasure hunters to books on alchemy, the author shows that the interest in ancient Egyptian scripts continued beyond classical writers, and describes attempts by medieval Arab scholars, mainly alchemists, to decipher the hieroglyph script. He further explores medieval Arab interest in Ancient Egypt, discussing the interpretations of the intact temples, as well as the Arab concept of Egyptian kingship and state administration—including a case study of Queen Cleopatra that shows how the Arabic romance of this queen differs significantly from Western views. This book will be of great interest to academics and students of archaeology, Islamic studies and Egyptology, as well as anyone with a general interest in Egyptian history.

The Book of Treasure Spirits
Author: Elias Ashmole
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781905297276
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 188
Book Description
THE BOOK OF TREASURE SPIRITS Conjurations of Goetic spirits, old gods, demons and fairies are all part of a rich heritage of the magical search for treasure trove. During the Middle Ages and Renaissance the British Monarchy gave out licenses to people seeking treasure in an effort to control such practices, and this is one reason why so many grimoires are full of conjurations and charms to help the magician find treasure. Published here for the first time, from a long-ignored mid-seventeenth century manuscript in the British Library (Sloane MS 3824), is the conjuration said to have been performed at the request of King Edward IV, with other rites to reveal treasure, to have treasure brought from the sea, and to cause thieves to bring back stolen goods. Conjurations to call any type of spirit are also included, recorded by the noted alchemist and collector Elias Ashmole, as is an extract on conjuration practices from the Heptameron, transcribed into English for practical use by a working group of magicians, before its first English publication by Robert Turner in 1655. These conjurations demonstrate the influence of earlier classic grimoires and sources, with components drawn from the Goetia, the Heptameron, and Reginald Scot's Discoverie of Witchcraft. The material includes spirit contracts for Agares, Padiel and Vassago, as well as techniques like lead plates for binding, and summoning into a glass of water, which hark back to the defixiones of Hellenistic Greece and the demonic magic of the Biblical world. This material forms part of a corpus of conjurations all written in the same hand and style of evocation, linking Goetic spirits and treasure spirits with the archangels and planetary intelligences (in Sloane MS 3825), and demon kings and Enochian hierarchies (in Sloane MS 3821), making it a unique bridge of style and content between what are often falsely seen as diverse threads of Renaissance magic. About the Author David Rankine is an occult scholar and author of more than 20 books on the subject of magic, the western esoteric traditions, folklore and mythology. Since the 1970's he has been researching and exploring magical and spiritual practices throughout history; a journey which has taken him from ancient Sumeria, Babylonia and Egypt through Greece, Rome and Britain through the middle ages and rennaisance and the modern Western Mystery Traditions. With Stephen Skinner he has produced works such as The Veritable Key of Solomon and the Goetia of Dr Rudd, both highly regarded groundbreaking works which make available previously unpublished source materials for the first time.
