Описание: Courtship in Georgian England was a decisive moment in the life cycle, often imagined as a tactical game. Sally Holloway uses a rich selection of material and written sources to explore the emotional experience of courtship between Georgian men and women, how love developed into a commercial industry, and what happened when engagements went awry.
Описание: Joanna Southcott (1750 - 1814) remains one of the most significant and extraordinary religious figures of her era. In an age of reason and enlightenment, her apocalyptic prophecies attracted tens of thousands of followers, and she captured international attention with her promise to bear a divine child. In this new intellectual biography Matthew Niblett unravels Southcott's writings, her context and her message to demonstrate why the prophetess was such a magnetic figure and to highlight the significance of her role in British religious history. Using a wide range of contemporary sources, this revealing study explains the formation of Southcott's apocalyptic theology, her treatment of the Bible, her relation with the Church, the network of clerical supporters she used and the striking originality of her message. In so doing, this book shines fresh light on religion and the politics of salvation in late Georgian England.
Описание: Ron Geaves demonstrates how the convergence of Guru Maharaj Ji and Glastonbury Fayre 1971 reveals an important piece in the jigsaw that forms the bricolage that came to be known as ‘New Age’, or, more neutrally, contemporary spirituality. The book charts the “discovery” of Guru Maharaj Ji in India in 1969 by a small number of British, and then, North American ‘hippies’, and how his arrival in Britain in June 1971 and his speech from the pyramid stage at the Fayre at just 13 years of age, escalated his activities to become one of the key players influencing 1970s counter-culture spirituality. Both Glastonbury and Prem Rawat (Guru Maharaj Ji’s actual given name) have gone on to re-emerge in significantly different identities to the one presented in 1971. The meeting between the two demonstrates how alternative spiritualities were being formed in the 1960s and went on to develop into the ‘New Age’ counter-culture and eventually permeated mainstream cultures in Britain and the USA.
This incredible book maps our spiritual development as we journey from ignorance to enlightenment. We are all at different stages - are currently stationed either at the "Body" or personality level in consciousness, or at the "Soul" or "Spirit" stages. This book carefully catalogues these psychological developments in each of the 12 signs and houses. It clearly describes how consciousness expresses itself when it is engrossed with the material world (Body), when it is wise and loving (Soul) and when it has become a World Server (Spirit).
Clearly laid out, readers will find it easy to figure out where they stand on the Path of Spiritual Development. Practical suggestions are made throughout the book to help bring about the required transformations in consciousness.
The "Astrology of Spirit, Soul and Body" is an astrological guide-book for the transformation of consciousness, that is practical and very useful for those who are aspiring to something higher and finer.
"Hodgson has reduced the ordinarily staggering complexity of the Sciences of Astrology and Esoteric Psychology, to an approach that can be readily grasped by the intelligent, spiritually inquiring mind. This is one of the outstanding features of "Spirit, Soul, Body," - its practicality." Michael Robbins, Director Morya Federation.
At the end of the book, Soul-Purpose astrology readings are given for famous people including Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. This will help readers formulate their own Soul- Purpose readings.
