They may be as passionate as Vivia who disguised herself as a man to follow her lover to Oklahoma, and killed him when she witnessed his infidelity or as genteel as the Lady in White, who showed up at a Delaware farmhouse during a...

ISBN: 9780791093856 / Angielski / Twarda / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Can we see into the future to tell if we are going to be happy or rich? What does fate have in store for us? These are the kinds of questions that come up when most people think of divination, making it seem like mere fortune-telling or, worse, just plain superstition. Rather than predicting the future, however, divination provides insight and guidance to help a person create the future. It is a way of contacting part of the human mind that resides in the unconscious, providing greater perspective and access to psychic abilities.

The Magic Forest
ISBN: 9780595456956 / Angielski / Miękka / 68 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. When I was a child, I was told of a place of beauty and magic, fondly dubbed The Magic Forest. It was full of an entirely colorful cast of characters, fairies, creatures, animals, events that shaped their lives, and how they look out for us in the real world. Not that the Magic Forest isn't real. In fact, the animals you see every day just may be one of the creatures of the forest keeping an eye on you. Hence, the squirrel in your backyard could be Ivan, the seagull at the beach could be Larry the Laughing Gull (I saw him once or twice myself), and the crow could be O'Malley and his gang-but...
