DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn this study, which is first of all a folk-lore study, we pursue principally an anthropo-psychological method of interpreting the Celtic belief in fairies, though we do not hesitate now and then to call in the aid of philology; and we make good use of the evidence offered by mythologies, religions, metaphysics, and physical sciences.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn this book, Cheryl Rose-Hall shares the unique painting technique that she has developed. As a sensitive, she shares how she paints by attuning to her subjects through the eyes and spirals out from that central point. Using historical data along with her psychic impressions, she creates empowered works of art based on sacred sites and their mythology. This book includes photos, images, and research that the public has never seen before. This is reiterated in the brilliant forward by Dr. Jean Houston. The book is divided into the four mythic lands where Cheryl lives and creates. Narnia (Northern Ireland), Lemuria (Mt. Shasta), Avalon (UK), and Bohemia (Prague, Czech Republic). There are 120 color photos and 60 color paintings and their stories. Some of the highlights include The real portrait of Mary painted by St. Luke, the actual Kingdom of Narnia, and the rarely seen ancient Lemurian petroglyphs near Mt. Shasta documented by archeologists.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK"Religious beliefs and spiritual traditions have molded Ireland's past and present in spectacular ways. Ranging across a rich tapestry, from early Celtic culture to the Christian missionaries, from the Golden Age of monastic life to the diverse influence of the Vikings and the Normans, the Reformation, the wars of religion, to the people now engaged in the Peace Process, The Voice of the Irish offers a balanced account of the religious, social and political life of the Irish. A sweeping history of faith in Ireland, it brings to life the island's people and events, including the legacy of pagan Celtic spirituality, the real and the legendary St. Patrick, the religious roots of English involvement in Ireland, the Famine and new life in America, the origins of the Troubles in the North, and predicts a future between tradition and modernity." --Book Jacket.
