This book was released on 2020-01-09 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume examines mirrors and mirroring through a series of multidisciplinary essays, especially focusing on the intersection between technological and cultural dynamics of mirrors. The international scholars brought together here explore critical questions around the mirror as artefact and the phenomenon of mirroring. Beside the common visual registration of an action or inaction, in a two dimensional and reversed form, various types of mirrors often possess special abilities which can produce a distorted picture of reality, serving in this way illusion and falsehood. Part I looks at a selection of theory from ancient writers, demonstrating the concern to explore these same questions in antiquity. Part II considers the role reflections can play in forming ideas of gender and identity. Beyond the everyday, we see in Part III how oracular mirrors and magical mirrors reveal the invisible divine – prosthetics that allow us to look where the eye cannot reach. Finally, Part IV considers mirrors' roles in displaying the visible and invisible in antiquity and since.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part I: Battling the Como’s. “Beneath the Moon’s Reflection” opens in the serenity of night, with the moon hanging like a silver coin on a velvet canvas, throwing a meditative radiance over the protagonist’s house. You, this lone figure, stand by the window, a vessel of churning emotions exposed to the thoughtful silence of 2 a.m. During these silent hours, the mind confronts its fundamental defects and issues. For as long as you can remember, life has been a never-ending game of ping-pong, alternating between thrilling successes and shattering failures. Each effort has left you exhausted and scarred, and the desire to give up has persisted in your mind. However, a persistent light within you refuses to extinguish. Fueled by a symphony of tears, laughter, joy, and sadness, this flame symbolizes your unwavering determination. In this very introspective section, you begin on a trip through the maze of your emotions. The moon, a silent witness to your evolution, symbolizes optimism and rejuvenation. Through meaningful discussions with the cosmos, you realize that happiness cannot be found but must be produced from the inside. You know that life is not a war to be won, but an adventure to be had. In its immensity, the universe is not an opponent but rather a companion on your journey, providing you with the insight you need to pursue your route to pleasure. Part II: The Beauty of Death The narrative switches to investigate the concept of death, which is typically cloaked in fear and mystery. However, this book section approaches death from a new angle, seeing it as a potential source of beauty and release. Death, while often regarded as the great unknown, can also be viewed as a respite from the difficulties and tribulations of daily life. It is the ultimate freedom, freeing people from their commitments in life and giving them a new perspective on the inevitability of death. The inquiry broadens to encompass the “Rules of Death,” a sophisticated set of guidelines that regulate this newfound knowledge. Death, like life, has its own set of rules. The taboo of willfully killing oneself is central to these ideas, emphasizing the significance of accepting the natural flow of existence. This prohibition encourages people to recognize their path’s importance and let the universe unfold as it should. In this section, the protagonist explores the emotional and spiritual dimensions of death, recognizing the loss and pain that come with losing loved ones. However, by acknowledging the beauty of death, sorrow can be transformed into a celebration of life and the journey beyond this world.

Book excerpt: Using werewolves and Wernher von Braun, Stonehenge and the sex lives of sea corals, aboriginal myths, and an Anglican bishop in this new book, the author weaves variegated information into a glimpse of Earth's closest celestial neighbor, whose mere presence inspires us to wonder what might be out there. Going beyond the discoveries of contemporary science, he presents a cultural assessment of our complex relationship with Earth's lifeless, rocky satellite. As well as offering an engaging perspective on such age old questions as "What would Earth be like without the moon?" he surveys the moon's mythical and religious significance and provokes existential soul searching through a lunar lens, inquiring, "Forty years ago, the first man put his footprint on the moon. Will we continue to use it as the screen onto which we cast our hopes and fears?" Drawing on materials from different cultures and epochs, he walks readers down a moonlit path illuminated by more than seventy-five vintage photographs and illustrations. From scientific discussions of the moon's origins and its chronobiological effects on the mating and feeding habits of animals to an illuminating interpretation of Bishop Francis Godwin's 1638 novel The Man in the Moone, his interdisciplinary explorations recast a familiar object in an original light.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A guide to conscious living through the moon and her phases, incorporating wellness rituals, spellwork, and witchcraft for the modern seeker. We all know the moon. We all have a relationship with it. The earliest people obeyed her orbit, timed their months and holidays and celebrations and agriculture to the moon; the echoes of that system are still visible today, though the connection to the moon is often forgotten. Sarah Faith Gottesdiener is the leader of a movement to remind us of that lineage, guiding our rhythms and our sleep, our energy and our emotions, reminding us of our humanity and our magic. In her self-published Many Moons Workbooks and Lunar Journals, as well as her sold-out classes, she has guided over 50,000 readers to a deeper relationship with the moon, and through it, with themselves. This evergreen book will be an informative and comprehensive guide to lunar living, incorporating radical, self-empowering, and magical tools and resources for the beginner and experienced lunar-follower alike. Depending on where we are in our lives, depending on what we are feeling or what is happening around us, the moon allows us a space to invite ritual into our daily lives. The Moon Book will provide a framework on how to utilize the entire lunar cycle holistically, while offering ways for the reader to develop a personal relationship with their own cycles—energetic, personal, and emotional—through the lens of the moon’s phases.
