The Meaning of the 360 Zodiacal Degrees serves as a comprehensive compilation, bringing together the complete zodiac degree interpretations of Charubel, La Volasfera / Sepharial, and Isidore Kozminsky.

The zodiacal degrees, often considered as the building blocks of astrological interpretation, have intrigued mystics, astrologers, and scholars throughout history. These degrees, each representing a specific point along the zodiacal circle, are believed to carry unique symbolic meanings that influence personality traits, life events, and spiritual growth. Over the centuries, various astrologers and writers have attempted to index and unravel the profound meanings embedded in these degrees.

The quest to unravel the intricate meanings embedded in the 360 degrees of the zodiac has been an ongoing exploration since Ptolemy, who connected them to specific planetary influences. Renaissance astrologer Johannes Engel (Angelus) published about the meaning of the decans and the separate degrees. In the late 19th century the famous interpretations of the medium Charubel were published, followed by Sepharial's translation of the degree symbolism by La Volasfera. Isidore Kozminsky introduced his distinct interpretations in 1917.

And now abideth faith, hope, love, these three; but the

greatest of these is love.

Barry Long's right meditation is a five-step guide to the art of spiritual life. It's the product of the author's vast knowledge and his own practice during more than forty years as a spiritual teacher. In his plain-spoken, accessible way, he takes us through the five essential steps that lead away from emotional pain into the sensation of the body, towards fulfilment and freedom and finally to a reality beyond life and death.

These teachings are about no longer being a slave to your emotional self. They are about your reality as an individual, being alive with sensation and accelerating your intelligence, until finally you overcome your attachment to existence and the fear of death.

"This whole meditation is about you, your deeper reality."

Step into the remarkable world of the honeybee in this illuminating and delightfully illustrated pocket guide.

For budding apiarists, this introductory book offers fascinating information about honeybees and everything you need to know to begin your own beekeeping journey. For example, did you know that from birth, female bees are promoted through roles such as nurse, baker, and guardian of the hive? Or that male bees' primary purpose is simply to mate with a queen, but only 0.1% of them ever will?

In these pages, you'll discover the inner workings of the beehive, the properties of honey, the basics of keeping bees, and the joys that come from this meditative hobby, including a thriving garden, environmental stewardship, and a supportive community (not to mention delicious honey!). A whole world awaits--and it's just outside your door.

WHY BEES MATTER: We need bees. According to Greenpeace, bees are responsible for one in every three bites of food humans consume. Without them, Earth, and our daily existence, wouldn't be the same. The active Save the Bees movement that has erupted in recent years shows that people are adamant about bee justice and committed to spreading awareness and knowledge about bees. This pocket guide is a practical and inspiring addition to the cause.

From spiritual teacher Tammy Mastroberte comes an indispensable guide for supercharging your manifestation practice with guidance from the Universe.

If you're struggling to see the changes you desire in life no matter how hard you try to manifest them, it may be time to put down this stressful burden and try something new. There is an easier way to create positive change, and it starts with no longer trying to do it alone. Instead, you can ask the Universe for help and place it in charge to guide you.

In The Higher Help Method, award-winning author Tammy Mastroberte affirms the Universe will support you to create what you want--or something even more incredible when you ask it to partner with you and harness its energy. To access the full potential of manifestation, we must learn to invoke the aid and wisdom of the Divine with confidence, receptivity, and trust. Here she shares her tried-and-true system for:

- Framing your intentions with clarity--express what you want, why you want it, and how it will make you feel
- Calling in specialized higher help--including angels, guides, saints, and loved ones
- Shifting your energy--attune to and maintain a higher vibration that magnetizes positive change
- Receiving and acting on guidance--recognize how the Universe answers and guides you, and follow its lead

You'll learn how to dive deeper into your practice with specific tools such as custom prayers, exercises, crystals, and rituals for manifesting in seven key areas: money and abundance, health, emotional well-being, relationships, career, parenting, and spiritual connection.

"The Universe always responds when you ask for help," says Mastroberte. "When you learn to trust it as a partner, creating positive change becomes easier, more effective, and much more fun." With this indispensable guide, you'll soon become an effective cocreator of your reality, supported by Divine forces to consciously create a life you love.

Buddha's core teachings explained in accessible, everyday language

- Shows how Zen offers a creative problem-solving mechanism and moral guide ideal for the stresses and problems of daily life

- Shares the author's secular, vernacular interpretations of the Four Noble Truths, the Three Treasures, the Eightfold Path, and other fundamental Buddhist ideas

During the nearly 3,000 years since the Buddha lived, his teachings have spread widely around the globe. In each culture where Buddhism was introduced, the Buddha's teachings have been pruned and modified to harmonize with local customs, laws, and cultures. We can refer to these modifications as "gift wrapping," translating the gifts of Buddha's teachings in ways sensible to particular cultures in particular times. This gift-wrapping explains why Indian, Tibetan, Vietnamese, Japanese, Chinese, and Indonesian Buddhism have significant differences.

In this engaging guide to Zen Buddhism, award-winning actor, narrator, and Zen Buddhist priest Peter Coyote helps us peer beneath the Japanese gift-wrapping of Zen teachings to reveal the fundamental teachings of the Buddha and show how they can be applied to contemporary daily life. The author explains that the majority of Western Buddhists are secular and many don't meditate, wear robes, shave their heads, or believe in reincarnation. He reminds us that the mental/physical states achieved by Buddhist practice are universal human states, ones we may already be familiar with but perhaps never considered as possessing spiritual dimensions.

Exploring Buddha's core teachings, the author shares his own secular and accessible interpretations of the Four Noble Truths, the Three Treasures, and the Eightfold Path within the context of his lineage and the teachings of his teacher and the teachers before him. He looks at Buddha's teachings on our singular reality that appears as a multiplicity of things and on the "self" that perceives reality, translating powerful spiritual experience into the vernacular of modern life.

Revealing the practical usefulness of Buddhist philosophy and practice, Zen in the Vernacular shows how Zen offers a creative problem-solving mechanism and moral guide ideal for the stresses and problems of everyday life.

A major new history of one of the world's holiest of cities, based on the most recent archaeological discoveries

First settled five thousand years ago by a mountain spring between the Mediterranean and Dead Sea, Jerusalem was named for the god (Shalem) that was worshipped there. When David reportedly conquered the city, ca. 1000 BCE, he transferred the Ark of the Covenant--and with it, the presence of the God of Israel--to this rocky outcrop. Here, David's son Solomon built a permanent house for the God of Israel called the first temple, and since then this spot has been known as the Temple Mount. After Babylonians destroyed Solomon's temple in 586 BCE, it was replaced by the second temple, which is the setting for many of the events described in the Gospel accounts. In 70 CE, the Romans destroyed Jerusalem, leaving the Temple Mount in ruins. Two hundred and fifty years later, the emperor Constantine constructed the Church of the Holy Sepulcher around the spots where Jesus is believed to have been crucified and buried, and the church is now considered Jerusalem's holiest site by many Christians worldwide. In the late seventh century CE the focus shifted back to the Temple Mount, when an early Islamic ruler named Abd al-Malek enshrined the rocky outcrop in a monument that is still iconic of the city today: the Dome of the Rock. In 1099 Crusaders conquered Jerusalem, and although their rule was brief rule they left a deep impact on the city. Today, much of the old city retains its medieval appearance.

For followers of the three Abrahamic faiths, Jerusalem is the place where the presence of the God of Israel dwells--the meeting point of heaven and earth and the locus of divine and human interaction. Jerusalem through the Ages by Jodi Magness explores how these beliefs came to be associated with the city by introducing readers to its complex and layered history, providing a broad yet detailed account, including the most recent archaeological discoveries. Each chapter focuses on a key moment of transition from Jerusalem's beginnings to the Crusades of the medieval period, enabling readers to experience the city's many transformations as it changed hands and populations-Jebusites, Israelites, Judahites, Persians, Greeks, Romans, Jews, Christians, and Muslims. The book also includes a walking guide for visitors who wish to experience the city's many archaeological sites firsthand.

Sacred Celebrations for the Skeptical Seeker

Invite more joy and meaning into your life with nature-based rituals, ceremonies, and workings that are spiritually powerful but rooted in material reality.

Rituals transform a moment that might otherwise seem ordinary into a special occasion. However, it can feel awkward to start these practices, particularly for atheists, agnostics, humanists, and other nonbelievers. With this book, Mark A. Green teaches you how to meaningfully ritualize your life, without asking you to believe in anything science can't prove.

With an emphasis on the cycles of nature instead of deity worship, Mark shows you how to celebrate wheel of the year holidays, rites of passage, and personal observances. He provides dozens of rituals, workings, crafts, and recipes to bring greater happiness and connection to every occasion. Through Atheopagan principles and practices, you can spiritually honor the passage of time, important milestones, your community, and yourself.

Includes a foreword by Arwen Gwyneth, former chair of the Atheopagan Society Council
