Book I of the Wanderer Chronicles A gripping and brilliantly realized debut epic adventure set in eighth-century Denmark. This is the beginning of an ambitious new series in the vein of George R.R. Martin's A Game of Thrones. Sworn to honour. Broken by betrayal. Hakan, son of Haldan, chosen son of the Lord of the Northern Jutes, swears loyalty to his father in fire, in iron, and in blood. But there are always shadows that roam. When a terrible tragedy befalls Hakan's household he is forced to leave his world behind. He must seek to pledge his sword to a new king. Nameless and alone, he embarks on a journey to escape the bonds of his past and fulfil his destiny as a great warrior. Whispers of sinister forces in the north pull Hakan onwards to a kingdom plagued by mysterious and gruesome deaths. But does he have the strength to do battle with such dark foes? Or is death the only sane thing to seek in this world of blood and broken oaths?

It is a title that expresses the tangible and intangible intelligences of our existing creation. As in vibration and frequency invisible forces. As in the intelligence that unfolds with the uniting of egg and sperm when united as in the miracle of a seed to know what to become when planted. All aspects of life hold a mystical magical miracle within.

As Light Before Dawn explores the mystical thought of Isaac ben Samuel of Akko, a major medieval kabbalist whose work has until now received relatively little attention. Through consideration of an extensive literary corpus, including much that still remains in manuscript, this study examines an array of themes and questions that have great applicability to the comparative study of mysticism and the broader study of religion. These include prayer and the nature of mystical experience; meditative concentration directed to God; and the power of mental intention, authority, creativity, and the transmission of wisdom.

Drawing on the work of some of the great spi ritual teachers of the 20th century, The Dawn of the Mystica l Age explains and celebrates what Frank Tuoti sees as human kind''s emerging evolution into higher consciousness. '

Francis La Flesche (1857-1932), Omaha Indian and anthropologist with the Bureau of American Ethnology, published an enormous body of work on the religion of the Osage Indians, all gathered from the most knowledgeable Osage religious leaders of their day. Yet his writings have been largely overlooked because they were published piecemeal over the course of twenty-five years and never adequately collected or analyzed. In this book, Garrick A. Bailey brings together in a clear, understandable way La Flesche’s data for two important Osage religious ceremonies--the "Songs of Wa-xo’-be," an initiation into a clan priesthood, and the Rite of the Chiefs, an initiation into a tribal priesthood. To put La Flesche’s work into perspective, Bailey offers a short biography of this prolific Native American scholar and an overview of traditional Osage religious beliefs and practices.

As spiritual beings having a human experience, we are all capable of entering Into the Mystic. For the Mystic—that expanded state of awareness where we can connect with Spirit and experience other realities—has been accessible to us from the very beginning when we as children were much more capable of having mystical experiences. However, as we stray from the innocence and openness of childhood, we tend to lose our spiritual capabilities. Nevertheless, as Into the Mystic reveals and promises in a unique and entertaining way, we can reclaim the true magic and birthright of our youth by following a spiritual path, pursuing "ultimate reality," and thereby come to know ourselves, and "God," in the process. Into the Mystic (From the Streets of Brooklyn) is an exploration of self and ultimate reality through shamanism, after-death communications, past-life regressions, and original mystical thought. The work is filled with tales of wondrous, real-life mystical adventures and spiritual encounters, and is deep and magical enough to be appreciated by even the most enlightened among us. However, Into the Mystic is simultaneously intended to be shared and enjoyed by our less spiritually inclined friends, mates and significant others, and can actually help bridge the seemingly insurmountable gap between believers and skeptics.

In 2003 John Michael Greer became the seventh Grand Archdruid of the Ancient Order of Druids in America (AODA), an initiatory organization teaching Celtic nature spirituality which was founded in 1912. The outcome was that his writings began to stray into territory very far from the Hermetic occult philosophy that had been the previous focus of his career. The essays included in this volume chronicle some of the themes he explored as a result: Druidry, Jungian psychology, politics, history, and the shape of the future in a society in decline.
