Book Description
In the Spirit Worlds and the dimensions that exist, reside numerous kingdoms that house a plethora of Spirits that inhabit various forms. One of these tribes is called the Wise Ones, a darker breed in the spirit realm who often chooses to incarnate into a human body one lifetime after another for important purposes. The Realm of the Wise One takes you on a magical journey to the spirit world where the Wise Ones dwell. This is followed with in-depth and detailed information on how to recognize a human soul who has incarnated from the Wise One Realm. Author, Kevin Hunter, is a Wise One who uses the knowledge passed onto him by his Spirit team of Guides and Angels to relay the wisdom surrounding all things Wise One. He discusses the traits, purposes, gifts, roles, and personalities among other things that make up someone who is a Wise One. Wise Ones have come in the guises of teachers, shaman, leaders, hunters, mediums, entertainers and others. Realm of the Wise One is an informational guide devoted to the tribe of the Wise Ones, both in human form and on the other side. This book requires an untainted open mind to what's unseen or misunderstood. What readers have said about the "Realm of the Wise One": “Read the book Realm of the Wise One and what an awesome book! It was full of wisdom and beauty that it touched my heart.” - A Reader “Reading Realm of the Wise One had calmed my anxiety down within minutes. I have shared this book with a few people that are ready to receive the messages and they've told me it helped their journey tremendously. Thank you Kevin Hunter for your work here on earth and beyond.” - A Reader "I’m devouring Realm of the Wise One for the second time. I went through it so fast the first time it was a bit of a whirlwind. Much of it got blown away by all of the “Oh my God, so it’s not just me” emotions. I’ve read Doreen Virtue’s information on realms, but that was barely an appetizer. This book explains it to me with all the words I had inside me already. Fascinating!" - A Reader "I'm about 100 pages into the book, "Realm of the Wise One". I woke up at 2:45 one morning and rather than going online I started reading it. It has helped me connect to the spirit dimensions in a very visceral way. I feel the presence of the spirit realms in a way that felt more elusive before. I definitely see so much of myself in the wise one archetype. It has helped me own those parts of myself rather than thinking I should be different - in particular the introverted part of me that has about zero tolerance for small talk or BS. I don't identify with all of it so I am thinking I might have some other archetypes mixed in there, but I definitely have a lot of the wise one in me. And there are some definite unicorns in my life. It's fascinating to read about all of this. I look forward to learning more. Thank you to the author for gifting the book to the Universe!" - A Reader "I bought Realm of the Wise One and it had me hooked. I liked this one so much and would be interested to read more books on Wise Ones by this author." - A Reader "I'm on the last chapter of the book, “Realm of the Wise One”. I have so much to say I don't even know where to begin. First of all, AWESOME BOOK! It made me understand and see some people in my own life and where they are coming from. One of them being my uncle. I see so much of a Wise One in him that it's not even funny. But what made me laugh so hard is the way Incarnated Angels are portrayed. I loved that chapter because it's like it was describing me to a tee!” - A Reader "I've been reading the book, "Realm of the Wise One", and it's a page-turner to me! Wow!" - A Reader "Love the book 'Realm of the Wise One'! Actually reading the book again to absorb the invaluable information. The first time I came across the Wise One Realm was in Doreen Virtue's book. The information seemed a little limited. I had to find more information, but couldn't find it anywhere. I asked my Spirit Family for help for about a year. And one day I was guided to look for a new book to read. I almost fell out of my chair and started laughing when I saw this book! It definitely has answered many questions about who I am. Great book!" - A Reader "I am on page 99 of the "Realm of the Wise One" book, and this book is so positively energetic I love it!" - A Reader "I have been reading this book and can't put it down! It's so good! Kevin Hunter should be a teacher in a school or college, or counselor. This stuff he wrote is right to the point and right on the mark. I kept thinking, damn he's good! I'm just about to start chapter 8 and each chapter is like wow, "He's so right on! Great job with this. What a gifted Angel Wise One this author is and a true Warrior for sharing the right stuff! Thank you!" - A Reader "Wow! The "Realm of the Wise One" book arrived this afternoon (today – the day of the Equinox), I took it to the gorgeous Lake Alpsee and I read the first 29 pages. I could hardly stop. I am impressed! And moved. The unicorns have been knocking on my door for a few months now and they keep knocking. It’s like my heart is remembering something, and now I read in this book that there is a connection between unicorns and Sagittarius! Thank you for writing this great book!" - A Reader "I directed the Realm of the Wise One book to a Wise One who seemed to be in need of a change from his day job. He teaches meditation and self-empowerment courses, but he needed more stimulation, as he sounded bored with that, so I gave him this book and he said it helped him. We love this book!" - A Reader "I read the book "Realm of the Wise One" the other night in one sitting. When I got to the description of the author's home and the different beings I started to cry. I immediately recognized my friend in this as a Wise One. I messaged her and demanded, cajoled and begged her to immediately buy the book. I said to her...You KNOW this guy or you will know him. I can see it as plain as day. She's now read it and came back to me with, "You're right! There's someone like me!" So uh yeah, guilty as charged for that one." - A Reader "I recently picked up the book REALM OF THE WISE ONE from a stall in India. I turned over to the back of the book and a picture of the author was printed. I saw the picture and my heart started racing at like 250 bpm. I knew I had to buy this book and I'm glad I did. What an amazing book!" - A Reader "WOW! What a fantastic book Realm Of The Wise One is! I've been reading it off and on all afternoon. Great book! Makes you think whoa! Things were said that hit me like POW! This is such an insightful book! I’m loving it and will be reading it again." - A Reader "I'm not even a Wise One and I found the Realm of the Wise One book richly informative and a thoroughly enjoyable read. Hope the author gets inspired to write more on the other Realms someday. He has such an incisive way of animating the material." - A Reader "Realm of the Wise One was enchanting I loved it. This author is a trendsetter. A man writing the truth that others are drinking up. You know the magick. The magick of being a Wise One is showing others the truth and giving them the option to drink up the Truth or to spit it back out and keep grunting like Neanderthals." - A Reader "It has come to my attention that the author and I "see" the same places. I find this unusual. Thy Realms he speaks of in his book, "Realm of the Wise One", are known to me as Fey or Fae Realms. It is the places between The Veil. I am drawn in, but wary and I cannot place why. It is not fear of embarrassment (think me a fool it doesn't unsettle me). Rather a strange sensation of being seen, of knowing you are from my home, a nakedness of spirit perhaps. I have ridden the white horse with wings all my life, visited crystal cities that seem to burn in the setting sun only to return to cool shining glassy crystal in the purple of evening. Yet it was the waterfalls he describes, or most specifically the grass, of every shade of green that brought me to tears of knowing. Even the cover of the book is familiar to me. I called it my House Tree as a child with stairs that wind both up and down. And a doorway that is higher up to settle and watch the lights in the leaves in the evening. I will look for this author in my forest and perhaps in the mountains too, or maybe I will return to the crystal city and the dancing there. This was an amazing book to me." - A Reader

Growing up as an abandoned outcast on the moors, young Alys’ only company is her cruel foster mother, Morach, the local wise woman who is whispered to practice the dark arts. Alys joins a nunnery to escape the poverty and loneliness she has felt all her life, but all too soon her sanctuary is destroyed. King Henry VIII’s followers burn the holy place to the ground, and Alys only just manages to escape with her life, haunted by the screams of her sisters as they burned to death.

Book Description
Renowned psychologists describe the five most useful insights from social psychology that will help make you “wise”: wise about why we behave the way we do, and wise about how to use that knowledge to understand others and change ourselves for the better. When faced with a challenge, we often turn to those we trust for words of wisdom. Friends, relatives, and colleagues: someone with the best advice about how to boost sales, the most useful insights into raising children, or the sharpest take on a political issue. In The Wisest One in the Room, renowned social psychologists Thomas Gilovich and Lee Ross ask: Why? What do these people know? What are the foundations of their wisdom? And, as professors and researchers who specialize in the study of human behavior, they wonder: What general principles of human psychology are they drawing on to reach these conclusions? They find that wisdom, unlike intelligence, demands some insight into people—their hopes, fears, passions, and drives. It’s true for the executive running a Fortune 500 company, the candidate seeking public office, the artist trying to create work that will speak to the ages, or the single parent trying to get a child through the tumultuous adolescent years. To be wise, they discover, one must be psych-wise when dealing with everyday challenges. In The Wisest One in the Room Gilovich and Ross show that to answer any kind of behavioral question, it is essential to understand the details—especially the hidden and subtle details—of the situational forces acting upon us. Understanding these forces is the key to becoming wiser in the way we understand the people and events we encounter, and wiser in the way we deal with the challenges that are sure to come our way. With the lessons gleaned here, you can learn the key to becoming “the wisest one in the room.”
