Sommerglück auf Fehmarn (3404176952)

Ein kleines Hotel am Strand von Fehmarn, eine chaotisch-liebenswerte Familie und jede Menge Heiratsanträge - ein sommerlich-humorvoller Roman mit bezauberndem Schauplatz "Emily, glaub mir. Ich bilde mir das nicht ein: Das Hotel steckt in großen Schwierigkeiten." Der unerwartete Hilferuf ihrer Mutter und die Bitte, rasch nach Hause zu kommen, bringen Emily völlig aus dem Konzept.

So aufgeregt ist Emily, dass ihr erst viel später auffällt, dass ihr Freund ihr gerade einen Antrag machen wollte. Nicht das beste Vorzeichen für ihren Plan, die "Strandperle" in ein Romantikhotel umzuwandeln und Verliebten bei der Organisation des perfekten Heiratsantrags zu helfen ...

Helios Unbound : Pagan Theurgy to Connect to Your Higher Genius (9781912241156)

The Western Mystery Tradition is based on a bedrock of pagan magic, yet too many important developments are over-influenced by post-pagan Judeo-Christian-Islamic dogma. One of these is the concentrated "storming of the gates of heaven" technique known as the Abramelin system, in which the magician attempts to contact a spirit called the Holy Guardian Angel after an intense six- or 18-month programme. In Helios Unbound, Nick Farrell liberates the Western Mystery Tradition from its Christian past by adapting modern ceremonial magical techniques with pagan practices to provide a working system to contact a person's divine self. The Ancients called this divine self their Higher Genus, and Farrell sees this sprit as the key to understanding your spiritual and material destiny and working practical magic. The book takes you through the practical information you need covering a wide range of magical subjects including Ceremonial Magic, Hellenistic Astrology, Astral Work, Meditat...
