He investigates their origin as 'The Ancient and Illuminated Seers of Bavaria', the depiction on the United States one-dollar bill of an all-seeing eye and pyramid on the reverse of the Great Seal of the United States, the Protocols or procedures for usurping national governments and gaining world domination, the symbolism found in today's international corporate logos, Knights Templar, assassins, Skull and Bones, whistle blowers, the revolutions in France, Russia, and America, and much, much more.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. How does each planetary sign, each house, and the relationships between planetary bodies influence your life? This essential guide lets you harness the energy of your unique astrological influences and gifts!Building on the basics of traditional astrology with an in-depth understanding of the 12 signs, 12 houses, the planets, and the planetary combinations, The Astrology Guide: Understanding Your Signs, Your Gifts, and Yourself includes interpretations of the asteroid Chiron and the recently discovered dwarf planets Ceres, Eris, and Sedna. Beginner and advanced practitioners will benefit from its mastery of chart interpretation and its understanding of the gifts (and challenges) of planetary energies.Rather than interpreting planetary influences as 'good' or 'bad', thereby putting the individual in a box, The Astrology Guide looks at the "gift" and the corresponding 'shadow' each planet, sign, house placement, and planetary combination in the astrology chart offers. The 'shadow' is a concept first coined by Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung that describes those aspects of the personality that we choose to reject or repress, and embracing the planetary shadow creates personal empowerment. The planets are not doing something to you; instead, you can learn to interact with them, dance with their energy, and exist in harmony with them. This informative guide aids in self-discovery and furthers self-empowerment by helping you answer questions such as Who are you?What makes you unique?Do you know your unique gifts?What needs to be healed before you fully embrace your unique self?Are there obstacles interfering with expressing your unique gifts or are these obstacles the gift?Is there a story you are reflecting that is influenced by a prominent planet, asteroid, or a newly discovered dwarf planet in your chart?How do you relate to the Moon's Nodal influences in your birth chart?Is there an archetypal story that resonates with you?How do the minor aspects to your Personal Planets enrich your understanding of your talents and abilities?What are the flaws or the 'shadows' following you around?Are those shadows bringing you downtaking away your joy?Do these shadows include traumas, blocks, and wounds?And, much, much more!The Astrology Guide will develop your resilience to lifes cycles and outer influences and show you the unconscious parts of yourself that subtly influence your behaviour. Numerous photographs and illustrations, a helpful bibliography, and an extensive index add to its usefulness. Learn about your innate, unique gifts and gain satisfaction, fulfilment, and confidence!

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. How well do you know your neighbors? Maybe you should get to know them better!We are taught that monsters are easy to identify, but the truth is very different. Too often, the serial murderer does not stand out. Otherwise, he, or she, would get caught. The contrast between the ordinary-seeming lives that provided cover for their cruel secrets is exposed in The Serial Killer Next Door: The Double Lives of Notorious Murderers.To their coworkers, neighbors, and others who knew them, they led unremarkable lives. They had careers as military pilots, police officers, landscapers, small business owners, farmers, realtors, reporters, authors, veterinary technicians, nurses, doctors, handymen, painters, and chefs, while they simultaneously stalked city suburbs, college campuses, trailer parks, and red-light districts. This chilling book looks at the horrifying stories of nearly 30 malevolent killers (and hundreds of innocent victims) who were mistakenly trusted, including Genene Jones, a nurse responsible for the murder of 60 infants and children in her care. Shes said to be the inspiration for Stephen Kings iconic character of Annie Wilkes, in Misery and her nephew broke into Kings home, threatening to blow up the writer and his family because of it!Robert Lee Yates, a helicopter pilot in the Army National Guard who, when caught, buried one body outside his bedroom window as his wife slept.Gary Ridgway, also known as the Green River Killer, went undetected for 20 years, working for 30 years as a painter for a truck company and married for 17 years.Kathleen Folbigg, whose three children were at first thought to have died from natural causes. She only got caught when her husband found her personal diary.Joseph James DeAngelo, who worked various jobs, including as a police officer and a truck mechanic. He went on a decades-long crime spree and was finally caught with the help of DNA evidence. His case was instrumental in the establishment of California's DNA database.And dozens of other serial killers!Its chilling to realize that many serial killers have created second lives that are completely divorced from the brutality and evils they commit. Its incomprehensible to think that they are able to flip a switch, transforming them from apparently loving, ordinary men and women into torturous, homicidal slaughterers. With more than 120 photos and graphics, The Serial Killer Next Door is richly illustrated. Its helpful bibliography and extensive index add to its usefulness. We trust our neighbors, coworkers, and acquaintances. Of course, we do. It's ominous to think that we can't!
