Reagan's Moon is in conservative Taurus, and Welch's is in sexy Scorpio.In this eye-opening volume, world-famous astrologer and therapist Donna Cunningham unravels the often bewildering effects of lunar influence: a person's potential for intimacy...sense of security...family ties...susceptibility to indulgence in food or drink...career ambition...as well as how men and women respond differently to the same lunar promptings in love and life.Cunningham provides all the information you need to determine your own and others' Moon signs -- and analyze their power. Moon Signs also charts the daily, monthly, and yearly courses of the moon, which create those predictable mood swings -- our "emotional weather".The time-honored tradition of astrology has today come into its own as a resource for human development and spiritual insight.

The Book of English Magic
Philip Carr-Gomm - 2009
English authors such as J.R.R.Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, Terry Pratchett, and J.K.Rowling, dominate the world of magic in fiction, but from the earliest times, England has also acted as home to generations of eccentrics and scholars who have researched and explored every conceivable kind of occult art. Most people are torn between a fascination with magic and an almost instinctive fear of the occult, of a world redolent with superstition and illusion. And yet more people now practice magic in England than at any time in her history. The Book of English Magic explores this hidden story, from its first stirrings to our present-day fascination with all things magical. Along the way readers are offered a rich menu of magical things to do and places to visit.
