Описание: York, 1371. The Bishop of Winchester, William of Wykeham, is tasked with bringing home the remains of the powerful patriarch of the Pagnell family. But Wykeham's arrival is fraught with tension. The Pagnells are reeling from their father's death and they suspect Wykeham of having a hand in it. Days after his arrival, his townhouse burns to the ground-a terrible accident, or a threat. When the charred body of a woman is found in the remains, Wykeham fears for his reputation and his life. The Archbishop of York, John Thoresby, turns to the one-eyed spy, Owen Archer, for help. Archer, preoccupied by his wife's tragic miscarriage, reluctantly agrees to investigate the case. But the attempt on Wykeham's life runs deeper than anyone suspects. This tangled web includes knights, bishops, and even kings. When Archer discovers that the dead woman is a midwife known to all of York, including his wife, this dangerous plot is brought to his very home.

Описание: "As above, so below"...This statement has, in the past, been said by philosophers, and this belief is a major part of the Arthurian Story. Personalities and events in King Arthur's Astral Worlds are reflected from those worlds into this world. Time and time again, there is the occurrence, in material form, in this world, of objects and personalities which have an existence in Arthurian spirit worlds. And these have had a large importance to this world. Names are useful things in our arts and Owen's King Arthur could be subtitled A Book of Names and their Deeds. There are subtle conjures here. To know the name of a spirit and withhold your own name is to purchase power over that spirit in a shadowy slave economy of the soul. To reverse the equation is the signature of a faith that can bring the worker to good or ill; witness the unpronounceable Name of God and all those who pay homage to Its power. To exchange names with a spirit can be to bless and burn, die and be reborn in an ecstasy of union. Those who have a practice, reverends, priestesses, and doctors will find much in this book of use in both understanding their experiences and conducting their experiments.

Описание: (Tarot Deck available from LeftHandPress.com)The Cross Tarot is truly a compendium of Western Druidic lore and wisdom. This Tarot is an encyclopedic rendering of western occult knowledge rivaling such works as Crowley's 777. It is a return to the old ways, a guidepost leading the reader into the realms of the old knowledge. It is, in written and picture form, the lore of the story teller and as such the beating heart of the Western Traditions. Owen's practice weaves over fifty years and as a Tibetan monk can recite volumes of sacred teachings from memory, so also can Owen. This tarot is about Balance, not judgement of good or evil. Judgement against comes when a situation is out of balance. This tarot can be used to point to an imbalance and bring the state of affairs into equilibrium. The Cross Tarot is of necessity polytheistic (Aquarian). No single monotheistic (Piscean) good or evil force can provide the dynamism necessary for balance. The entire field of spiritual forces (Gods, Goddesses, Spirits, Forces, et cetera) are necessary to maintain the system of balances. As shown in the wisdom of this Tarot, Learning and Life are eternal properties of matter. Quotes from the Cross Tarot: Along the Path, the questor would find animals, minerals and plants; along with spiritual forces to which they relate. Deities are to be met within animals, minerals and plants. Especially, the Plant Kingdom gives a way the deities might be communicated with, as many of the deities, at times, take plant forms. As Jacob Grimm has said, the history of European Spirituality would; in many ways, resemble the history of trees.Small bits of herb might cause a great event to take place. A bit of herb might be hidden in the room of a subject to cause that person to fall in love. Media used herbs to stop the flow of rivers and to check the flight of stars...The wheels of cause and effect tie the trees, even to the smallest of herbs, with the great turnings of the starry heavens. Subtle connections between an herb and a distant star can throw the balance of an event toward one direction or another. It is said, "Every herb knows her loving star."
