Beschreibung

The Pictorial Key to the Tarot is a tarot guide by A. E. Waite and illustrations created by Pamela Colman Smith. Both Waite, the author of the deck, and Smith, the illustrator, were members of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn. While working on this book, Waite was very concerned with the accuracy of the symbols used for the deck. Therefore, he did much research into the traditions, interpretations, and history behind the cards. The book consists of three parts: The Veil and Its Symbols, The Doctrine of the Veil, The Outer Methods of the Oracles. The first part of the book presents an overview of the traditional symbols associated with each card, followed by a history of the Tarot. In the second chapter, Waite presents 78 black and white plates of Smith's illustrations for the Rider–Waite deck and discusses the unique symbols chosen for each card. The third part concerns the matter of divination with the cards. The book greatly influenced the development and popularization of the Tarot divination practices in Europe and the United States at the beginning of the 20th century.

    The self-admitted author of The Chemical Marriage, Johann Valentin Andreæ, born in Württemberg in 1586, was twenty-eight years of age when that work was first published. It was presumably written about twelve years prior to its publication--or when the author was fifteen or sixteen years old. The fact is almost incredible that one so young could produce a volume containing the wealth of symbolic thought and philosophy hidden between the lines of The Chemical Marriage. This book makes the earliest known reference to Christian Rosencreutz, and is generally regarded as the third of the series of original Rosicrucian manifestoes. As a symbolic work, the book itself is hopelessly irreconcilable with the statements made by Andreæ concerning it. The story of The Chemical Marriage relates in detail a series of incidents occurring to an aged man, presumably the Father C.R.C. of the Fama and Confessio. If Father C.R.C. was born in 1378, as stated in the Confessio, and is identical with the Christian Rosencreutz of The Chemical Marriage, he was elevated to the dignity of a Knight of the Golden Stone in the eighty-first year of his life (1459). In the light of his own statements, it is inconceivable that Andreæ could have been Father Rosy Cross.

    When fear takes hold, we can feel powerless and insipid. Life’s spiritual battles become too much, and the devil seems to be winning. It does not have to be like this, though! We can, and do, have victory in Christ. Faith in the all-powerful one means that we are strong in him, even when we feel weak.  Jonathan Stephen writes with clarity and compassion to help us understand how the battle against the enemy can truly be won. He uses one of the best known and most dramatic incidents in the Gospels, the stilling of the storm. As he draws our attention to what Jesus is teaching through this ‘faith-training exercise’, we join the disciples in discovering that when we are buffeted and frightened by the storms of life we can not only endure but overcome.

    Designing Worship Services That Speak to Our Daily Work Lives 
     
    People spend approximately one third of their lives at work. Whether paid or volunteer, blue collar or white collar, workers experience tremendous joys and significant challenges in their daily work. It should be no surprise that their spiritual questions, frustrations, and longings are often directly connected to their various careers and callings. But when they gather for corporate worship, services rarely acknowledge or mention their working lives. 
     
    In Leading Worship for Workers, two innovators in the global faith and work movement encourage church leaders to think critically about the congregations they serve. You'll discover 
     
    ● how to audit current worship practices and assess your congregation's work-life realities to create more relevant, engaging Sunday services; 
    ● step-by-step guidance for every element of worship--from gathering and singing to confession, testimony, communion, and sending--with specific applications for workers in all vocations; 
    ● prayers, songs, liturgies, and blessing ceremonies for various callings, including students, parents, retirees, and workers transitioning between careers; and 
    ● innovative worship ideas and resources to help ministry teams integrate faith-at-work themes into weekly services. 
     
    This comprehensive resource offers pastors, worship leaders, and ministry teams an array of creative ideas and practical methods to help them craft worship services that speak directly to workers and the realities they face throughout the week.
