  Renowned herbalist Amy Blackthorn shows readers how to bring plant spirits into their daily spiritual practice with therapeutic access, subconscious learning, and divining skills that help them understand plant spirits on a deeper level.  Blackthorn’s Botanical Magic showed a new generation of witches how scent affects people, whether they understand it or not. In Blackthorn’s Book of Sacred Plant Magic, we travel even deeper into the magical garden of scent. We know that a walk down a summer street can bring back the smell of childhood summers with friends, riding bikes and swimming. Spring breezes carry with them the clean soapy smell of your second-grade teacher. We experience scents not only in the here and now but also filtered through the lens of our past. Using the power of scent, we can create a sense of the sacred in our daily lives. Part reference guide, part recipe book, and part ritual journey, Blackthorn’s Book of Sacred Plant Magic offers readers an in-depth exploration of the vital connection between scents and magical practice.   Topics covered include:  Connecting with Spirits of Plants, Place, and People  Expanding your Scent Vocabulary: Beyond “Floral”  Scent, Memory, and Personal History: How History Effects Scent  Creating Scent Activations

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  The Reflective Cosmos invites you on an extraordinary journey through space, life, and consciousness, revealing a bold new vision of the universe as a vast mirror of itself. What if space is not empty, but a dynamic medium shaped by pressure, reflection, and resonance? What if life and mind emerge not as accidents, but as natural expressions of this cosmic architecture? 
  Blending science, philosophy, and imagination, this groundbreaking audiobook explores questions at the frontier of human thought: 
  Is the universe infinite, or does it bend back on itself like a reflection? 
  Could pressure and waves in the cosmic medium explain dark matter, black holes, and the hidden energy of space? 
  How are life, evolution, and consciousness woven into the same reflective principles that guide galaxies and stars? 
  Might information, order, and mind itself arise from the logic of mirrors? 
  From the mechanics of space and time to the mysteries of the living mind, from the breath of black holes to the reflective horizon of infinity, The Reflective Cosmos offers a unified story of existence - where physics, biology, and consciousness converge. 
  This is not just a book about the universe - it is a mirror in which the universe comes to know itself.

  Obsolescence - An Architectural...

  Daniel M. Abramson

  In our architectural pursuits, we often seem to be in search of something newer, grander, or more efficient—and this phenomenon is not novel. In the spring of 1910 hundreds of workers labored day and night to demolish the Gillender Building in New York, once the loftiest office tower in the world, in order to make way for a taller skyscraper. The New York Times puzzled over those who would sacrifice the thirteen-year-old structure, “as ruthlessly as though it were some ancient shack.” In New York alone, the Gillender joined the original Grand Central Terminal, the Plaza Hotel, the Western Union Building, and the Tower Building on the list of just one generation’s razed metropolitan monuments. In the innovative and wide-ranging Obsolescence, Daniel M. Abramson investigates this notion of architectural expendability and the logic by which buildings lose their value and utility. The idea that the new necessarily outperforms and makes superfluous the old, Abramson argues, helps people come to terms with modernity and capitalism’s fast-paced change. Obsolescence, then, gives an unsettling experience purpose and meaning. Belief in obsolescence, as Abramson shows, also profoundly affects architectural design. In the 1960s, many architects worldwide accepted the inevitability of obsolescence, experimenting with flexible, modular designs, from open-plan schools, offices, labs, and museums to vast megastructural frames and indeterminate building complexes. Some architects went so far as to embrace obsolescence’s liberating promise to cast aside convention and habit, envisioning expendable short-life buildings that embodied human choice and freedom. Others, we learn, were horrified by the implications of this ephemerality and waste, and their resistance eventually set the stage for our turn to sustainability—the conservation rather than disposal of resources. Abramson’s fascinating tour of our idea of obsolescence culminates in an assessment of recent manifestations of sustainability, from adaptive reuse and historic preservation to postmodernism and green design, which all struggle to comprehend and manage the changes that challenge us on all sides.
