Synopsis

Word Guild Awards Best Nonfiction Book of the Year
Can we still have joy in a world of pain and anxiety?
The troubles around us and in our lives lead many of us into a joyless experience where despair and hopelessness are the norm. Yet something within us still longs for a joy that transcends our challenges and gives us meaning and satisfaction.
Through theologically grounded insights and research-based practices, Longing for Joy offers guidance for becoming people of joyful presence, even for those who don't consider themselves naturally inclined toward an enthusiastic, happy temperament. Addressing the realities of suffering and joylessness that so many experience, Alastair Sterne shows you how your inner longings for joy actually point you to a God of joy who gives you both the capacity for joy and the realities of joyful experience.
What You'll Discover

- How your desire for joy takes you on a journey to the God of joy
- Theologically rich and practical ways to cultivate enduring joy
- Research into the essence and practice of joy
- 22 short, reflective chapters designed for meditation and response
If you're seeking to deepen your spiritual life and live as a joyful presence in the world, this book is an invitation into the goodness and beauty of life as you were meant to experience it.

    Do you sometimes feel like your messages are received differently than intended? Do you keep falling into the same communication traps at work or in your personal life? Do conversations often not go the way you hope? Then it's time to approach communication strategically – and this guide will show you how it works!
    The idea that "you cannot not communicate" is now common knowledge – which makes it all the more important to communicate well. Misunderstandings are probably the number one cause of frustration, stress, and disappointment in daily life. The concept of transactional analysis provides an easy solution by focusing on analyzing and reflecting on lived experiences – meeting all participants exactly where they are in the conversation. Like financial transactions, the sender and receiver roles are examined, and the relevant components are clearly broken down.
    You'll start by understanding the psychological concept and familiarizing yourself with the underlying theory. Then, through a variety of practical examples and exercises, you'll learn how to apply this knowledge in everyday life.
    Need psychology expertise? Not at all! The clear and systematic explanations combined with easy step-by-step exercises make this book ideal for beginners and will quickly turn you into a master of communication.

    We always wonder that every House in Vedic astrology has different meaning and results. So how does the planet sitting in it will behave. So in this book I am describing how Venus will give results in different houses in most possible and descriptive way. The planet behavior changes along with the house it sits in and give different results. Every house itself is a mystery and planet sitting in house becomes more mysterious and gives results in very different pattern. Planet is nothing but a cosmic energy which in particular location in house during our birth impacts our entire life the way we think and the way we behave and also controls our emotions. The glands in our brain reacts to this cosmic energy and creates a certain characteristic in our life patter and day to day life and we can understand this by understanding our horoscope and by checking which house the planet is sitting and how it impacts our thinking and life. I hope you will love this book and enjoy reading.

    Blank chart predictions is very interesting here we don’t consider any planets in houses or aspects or conjunctions. Here we just look at Ascendant and do predictions similarly every house according to ascendant will have energy of nakshatras and based on that we do predict the signification. With my many decades of experience and wisdom I am presenting this book which explores more of blank chart prediction. It is a unique concept many astrologers doesnot know. I hope readers will like this book and will benefit from this knowledge.

    I have used nakshatras from many decades so in this book I am using 27 nakshatra from Ashwini to Revati and providing some quick snapshot techniques about career which can be used on horoscope while predicting. These techniques are very quick and easy. All these techniques are based on experience of many decades. I am expecting every reader might love this technique. In this book I am describing each zodiac sign related to career and profession and also I am describing each planets related profession. Towards the end of the book I am explaining in short way how each nakshatra and planets in dasamsa can give career fields.
