Sinossi

Sacred Winds explores the profound connections between weather phenomena and religious beliefs across various cultures, diving into how wind and storms have been interpreted as divine messages. This interdisciplinary approach combines religion, climatology, and geography, highlighting the human need to find meaning within the natural world. The book examines how different societies have historically perceived atmospheric events, such as tornadoes being seen as divine wrath or gentle breezes representing benevolence. It presents these interpretations not as mere superstitions, but as sophisticated attempts to understand and interact with the environment. 

 
The book traces the origins of these beliefs through ancient mythologies, religious texts, and archaeological findings. It investigates the role of wind and storms in religious symbolism, with examples such as wind representing divine power or storms symbolizing spiritual cleansing. 

 
Examining specific religious traditions like Norse, Greek, and Shinto, the book progresses through thematic areas, analyzing mythologies and rituals related to weather. The final sections discuss the contemporary relevance of these interpretations, considering how they inform environmental ethics and disaster preparedness.

Old and New Methods of...

Rudolf Steiner

What are the key differences between the contemporary spiritual path and that of the ancient mysteries?   With remarkable clarity and insight, Rudolf Steiner throws new light on the contrasting methods of initiation in the ancient and modern day. The old mysteries worked to transform the physical body – 'the brain on the one hand, and the rest of the organism on the other' – whereas modern initiation 'transforms the element of spirit and soul, strengthening it with regard to the thought aspect on the one hand, and the will aspect on the other…'  These wide-ranging lectures additionally cover topics that include: the working of Lucifer and Ahriman in the human being; the relationship of the individual to the Folk Spirit; the development of religious life, particularly with reference to the pagan Old Testament streams; and the role of Imagination, Inspiration and Intuition in modern life. The final lectures examine the impulse of freedom behind the work of Goethe and Schiller, drawing connections with Shakespeare and the French Revolution. An overarching theme is the significance of the transition between cultural epochs and the importance of freeing ourselves from the intellectualism of our age through the spiritual quality of Imaginative consciousness.  This new edition features an introduction by Margaret Jonas, notes and an index.  Fourteen lectures, Dornach, Mannheim & Breslau, Jan.–March 1922, GA 210

Somewhere in Seattle

Brooke St. James

It was a surreal evening when I finally got to see Micah Lacey live in concert. He played a sold-out show, and I had front row tickets. It was like nothing I had ever experienced before. 
Micah said some things to the audience near the end of the performance—some personal things about his own life. I wasn't normally the type of person to follow clues, but Micah's songs and his life before stardom seemed interesting. 
I was curious about the mysteries of his past. I thought I might try to find out more. I had no idea that the search and events that followed would change my life forever.

He can't help feeling responsible for the prickly mother-to-be. A marriage of convenience is the right thing to do. But that doesn't mean he has to like it. He just has to survive it until they reach Oregon.
