Synopsis

Queering the Runes is a contemporary, inclusive, and forward-thinking approach to the runes that focuses on finding queer experience, life, and joy in the Elder Futhark. Siri comes to the runes as a queer, nonbinary reader, and presents a path for reclaiming the ancestral wisdom and mystery of the runes in a way that can provide insight and understanding of their sacred nature for masculine, feminine, and nongendered aspects of self. Written as a love letter to the runes, the gods, and the people who follow the Nordic path, Queering the Runes presents an alternative approach to the runes—one that creates a gentle container for those who want to follow this heathen path. Based on the author’s personal gnosis, as well as deep academic research on runes and Nordic culture, this book explores the root culture of the runes, both in terms of myth and of lived, real folkloric experience, and paves the way for understanding how to work with runes disencumbered from patriarchy and white supremacy.   Siri Vincent Plouff presents the traditional meanings of the runes, then helps the reader to queer the runes in their own way. Included are the lore associated with each rune, exercises to apply them to modern life, activities to engage with the runes (layouts, castings, and galdr), and advice on how to use the runes for divination. Throughout, the author provides journal prompts meant to help the reader channel the energy of specific runes, to get to know their energy, as well as to use the runes to help them move forward in a journey of self-discovery.  Queering the Runes seeks to blow open perceptions of the runes, exploring them as active, living symbols available to all, as well as the inherent connection with ancestral magic that comes with rune work.

    Do you ever feel guilty for being angry? Women and girls are often taught that we are overreacting, or just being too sensitive or unreasonable when anger arises. This bottled-up anger can then lead to inner criticism, self-doubt, resentment, emotional avoidance, and conflicts with others. This repressed anger can also cause a ripple effect throughout the body. 
     
     
     
    In this much-needed guide, a clinical psychologist and somatic therapist reveals how anger creates stress in the body and mind, and offers powerful body-based, somatic practices and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) techniques to help you let go of internalized anger. 
     
    With this go-to guide, you'll also learn to: 
     
     
     
    ● Find validation in your anger and other intense emotions 
     
     
     
    ● Move past negative thinking, destructive aggression, and repressed hostility 
     
     
     
    ● Increase body awareness through movement and breathing practices 
     
     
     
    Anger can be a powerful barometer in our lives, but too often it's misunderstood, misplaced, and mismanaged. This book will help you gain control of your anger so you can think clearly, communicate effectively, and channel your emotions in ways that can improve your life!

    In the Socrates Meets series, Peter Kreeft revives the classic method of bringing philosophy to life through dialogue. In eight innovative volumes, he uncovers the principles, assumptions, and sometimes dangerous conclusions of some of history’s most influential minds.  Each dialogue imagines a purgatory where we can listen in on conversations between Socrates and the great thinkers who, centuries later, picked up the philosopher’s torch. Each conversation investigates one of the philosopher’s key works, a short, readable classic that raises central questions both for philosophy and for life. In this volume, Socrates cross-examines Karl Marx, the father of communism and author of The Communist Manifesto, exploring freedom and oppression, history and change, property, education, women, and the family.

    Dark Psychology - Lies Deception...

    The concept of mind control might seem like a specialized topic that doesn’t concern us personally, often relegated to the realm of movies. However, the reality is that mind control is a genuine phenomenon, and understanding it is crucial for protecting ourselves against it. This subject has been explored since ancient times, and it is not a recent development. 
      
    Controlled societies have existed for centuries, with modern mind control techniques emerging from World War II research. Many experiments conducted during this era remain obscure unless one studies the topic closely. The government is not keen on discussing these practices openly, similar to the covert operations historically conducted by the CIA. 
      
    There are two primary methods of mind control: one based on psychological trauma and the other on physical trauma. The psychological approach involves subjecting the individual to severe emotional and physical trauma. The aim is to break down the mind and reshape the personality to perform specific functions desired by the controller. In this process, the victim is often unaware of the changes occurring in their mind and personality.
