Book excerpt: The Sacred Feminine - all very fascinating, but what has it really got to do with modern women? Jane is haunted over a tragic incident that happened when she was fourteen. Why hadn't she been paying attention to what was real instead of playing in fantasy? Now Amber, her beautiful ten year old daughter is missing, lost in the reserve forest or worse - why wasn't she paying attention - again? Cheryl is persistent - there 's no question about that. She is also exhausted, like severe adrenal exhaustion exhausted. Talented, hard-working, ethical, what is it that continually obstructs and eludes her from living the life she wants? Skye is young, newly engaged to the man she loves and has a job organising travel-groups to sacred, historic and exciting places around the globe; the world is her oyster. But the world is in such a mess, she worries about the future, even wonders if she should have any children. Is there something in the worldwide re-awakening of the Sacred Feminine that can show her a better way forward and give her the reassurance she seeks? Three women. Three different histories, personalities, generations. Is there something, some ancient wisdom, that connects them all and can answer them all? Pitch: Coventina's Well is an imaginative retelling of history and of the Sacred Feminine of Mary Magdalene's daughter, Sarah, and a woman from contemporary Australia, Jane Finley. Jane, who lost her faith in the sacred after the suicide of a young mother many years before, finds the ancient secret of the Celtic tree-alphabet hidden in first century Gaul by Sarah herself. First Century A.D. Gaul (now France): Sarah falls in love with Taliesin - a wandering Welsh minstrel privy to the Druidic lore of Merddin. Taliesin knows the secret of the ancient Celtic Beth-Luis-Nion tree-alphabet and its triple-muse, The White Goddess. Together, Sarah and Taliesin protect the secret from Roman rule and the turbulent early years of Christianity - a secret as real and powerful as the thousand year old Vedic teachings and which connects the Sacred Feminine of the new spirituality with ancient Celtic lore. 21st Century Australia: Jane Finley, prompted to protect her innocent young daughter from the perils of the world and looking for a way to come to terms with the past, stumbles across the secret in an old mythic puzzle begun in her youth. Hindered by inner turmoil and the linguistic twists and turns of an obscured and fragmented historical record, she endeavours to beat a ruthless narcissist to the secret and prevent its usurption at a critical turning point in the world's history.
Download or read book Magic in Britain written by Robin Melrose and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2018-03-08 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Magic, both benevolent (white) and malign (black), has been practiced in the British Isles since at least the Iron Age (800 BCE-CE 43). "Curse tablets"--metal plates inscribed with curses intended to harm specific people--date from the Roman Empire. The Anglo-Saxons who settled in England in the fifth and sixth centuries used ritual curses in documents, and wrote spells and charms. When they became Christians in the seventh century, the new "magicians" were saints, who performed miracles. When William of Normandy became king in 1066, there was a resurgence of belief in magic. The Church was able to quell the fear of magicians, but the Reformation saw its revival, with numerous witchcraft trials in the late 16th and 17th centuries.

Book Synopsis Excavating Pilgrimage by : Troels Myrup Kristensen
Download or read book Excavating Pilgrimage written by Troels Myrup Kristensen and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-02-03 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume sheds new light on the significance and meaning of material culture for the study of pilgrimage in the ancient world, focusing in particular on Classical and Hellenistic Greece, the Roman Empire and Late Antiquity. It thus discusses how archaeological evidence can be used to advance our understanding of ancient pilgrimage and ritual experience. The volume brings together a group of scholars who explore some of the rich archaeological evidence for sacred travel and movement, such as the material footprint of different activities undertaken by pilgrims, the spatial organization of sanctuaries and the wider catchment of pilgrimage sites, as well as the relationship between architecture, art and ritual. Contributions also tackle both methodological and theoretical issues related to the study of pilgrimage, sacred travel and other types of movement to, from and within sanctuaries through case studies stretching from the first millennium BC to the early medieval period.
Book Synopsis Religion in Britain from the Megaliths to Arthur by : Robin Melrose
Download or read book Religion in Britain from the Megaliths to Arthur written by Robin Melrose and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2016-03-11 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Druids and the Arthurian legends are all most of us know about early Britain, from the Neolithic to the Iron Age (4500 BC-AD 43). Drawing on archaeological discoveries and medieval Welsh texts like the Mabinogion, this book explores the religious beliefs of the ancient Britons before the coming of Christianity, beginning with the megaliths--structures like Stonehenge--and the role they played in prehistoric astronomy. Topics include the mysterious Beaker people of the Early Bronze Age, Iron Age evidence of the Druids, the Roman period and the Dark Ages. The author discusses the myths of King Arthur and what they tell us about paganism, as well as what early churches and monasteries reveal about the enigmatic Druids.

Book excerpt: From AD 81-192 almost all bronze coinage circulation in the western Empire was minted in Rome. This study examines, in some detail, the distribution by date and by reverse types of the coins. It also looks at changes in the volume of production and at changes in the ratio of the different denominations. The reign of Trajan is pinpointed as the start of the rise of the Sestertius as the main bronze denomination. The supply of currency to each province is examined and differences are identified between civilian and military provinces.
