  Mayan Astronomy: The History of...

  Many ancient civilizations have influenced and inspired people in the 21st century, and the Greeks and Romans continue to fascinate the West today, but of all the world’s civilizations, none have intrigued people more than the Mayans, whose culture, astronomy, language, and mysterious disappearance all continue to captivate people. In the past decade especially, there has been a renewed focus on the Mayans, whose advanced calendar led many to speculate the world would end on the same date the Mayan calendar ended in 2012.  
  	For the Maya, astronomy was not a purely scientific pursuit but intimately linked to religious, mythological, and ideological elements that were of the highest importance. The celestial realm held a sacred nature, as did the many gods and goddesses that dwelt there, so for all Mesoamerican cultures, astronomy was a fundamental part of their everyday lives. Thus, astronomy was present in their calendars, religion, and even agriculture, and in close relation to astronomy, the concept of time was also an essential part of their worldview. The Maya recorded time on almost every surface they could, including lintels, cornices, panels, stelae, friezes, ceramics, and paper. This insistence on capturing dates has led many scholars to suggest the Maya were obsessed with time. 
  The Maya had some of the most advanced astronomical measurements in the world, and their work built upon thousands of years, spanning from around 2500 BCE until the the arrival of the Spanish in 1519. Thanks to their hieroglyphic writing, archaeologists have been able to learn a wealth of information about the way they lived and their complex system of beliefs.

  ‘If you’ve read anything about the alien abduction enigma, then you will surely have heard the term ‘the greys’ which, of course, refers to the small grey humanoids involved in such experiences. In this book, investigator and experiencer Philip Kinsella draws on his extensive experience to pose the crucial questions about this phenomenon. The author also looks at the similarities with other high-strangeness experiences with a wide variety of otherworldly beings around the globe. If you have any interest in these subjects, then this could well be the book for you.’  Philip Mantle, British Ufologist, researcher, and author.  
  ‘Philip Kinsella’s Terrestrial Trespassers is an up-to-date, intelligent and broad-ranging survey of the alien abduction phenomenon, which explores many related paranormal phenomena as an integral part of the author’s thesis. Illustrations (many by Ronald Kinsella), archive photos, graphs and maps relevant to the narrative text enhance the reader’s experience by bringing the story alive. Highly recommended for both those new to this study and those more familiar with the literary canon on the subject.’  Steve Aspin, author of Out of Time: The Intergenerational Abduction Program Explored (2022) 
  ‘Excellent writing and ideas.  Philip explores numerous aspects of this strange phenomenon and includes a spiritual discussion.  One idea is that the Greys may be clones or artificially fabricated and may have eradicated the elements of their ‘spirit,’ which humans possess.  They may see using us as a method to escape such a robotic existence.’  Dr Irena McCammon Scott, author of "UFOs Today: 70 Years of Lies, Misinformation, and Government Cover-up."

  Ancient and carbon-rich, old-growth forests play an irreplaceable role in the environment. Their complex ecosystems clean the air, purify the water, cool the planet, and teem with life. In a time of climate catastrophe, old-growth and other natural forests face existential threats caused by humans―and their survival is crucial to ours.In a bicoastal journey, environmental journalist Lynda V. Mapes connects the present and future of Pacific Northwest forests to the legacy forests of the northeastern United States. Beginning in Oregon and Washington, where old growth supports, and is supported by, the region’s salmon, we meet Jerry Franklin, who led scientists in recognizing and studying the distinctiveness of these majestic spaces. From there, we journey to Vancouver Island, where Indigenous activists and scientists strive to preserve the health of Nuu-chah-nulth traditional homelands amid continued clearcutting. On the East Coast, we see the corduroy patterns of lands that have been logged for generations, leaving industrial carnage along formerly life-filled waterways.Mapes invites us to understand the world where trees are kin, not commodities. The Trees Are Speaking is a must-listen for those with a deep interest in environmental stewardship, Indigenous land rights, and the urgent challenges posed by climate change.
