Massachusetts, 1691: a patchwork quilt of lonely settlements, surrounded by primeval forest and marauding Indians.

It is also a tinderbox of envy and greed, repressed lust and jealousy, awaiting only the smallest spark to ignite into a monstrous blaze of madness.

For those starseeds roaming the earth with a feeling of homesickness, a pull towards the unknown within the stars, this deck will help them: * identify as a starseed, and understand what this word means* feel less alone in the universe and understand their longing for "home" * activate imprinted memories of their soul history through mind-bending, cosmic images* understand their mission on Earth and empower them to be a source of positive energyThis is an oracle deck for those who are dimming their light to fit in but want to courageously show the world who they truly are and step into their calling--to bathe the world in their celestial light.

    In "Traveling Light," Eugene H. Peterson, who is translator of "The Message Bible," explores the free life in Christ that we must both receive as a gift and practice as a skill. In an engaging, often passionate dialogue in which Paul's letter to the Galatians faces off against the crises of modern life, he offers both encouragement and challenge to men and women trapped in the anxieties and determinism of our age. Eugene H. Peterson was pastor of Christ Our King United Presbyterian Church in Bel Air, Maryland, for nearly three decades, then served as professor of spirituality theology at Regent College, Vancouver, BC. Dr. Peterson is translator of "The Message" and author of numerous other works, among them "A Long Obedience in the Same Direction" and "Christ Plays in Ten Thousand Places." "Like a skilled eye doctor, Eugene Peterson turns the lens that clears our vision and enables us to discriminate between reality and fantasy, to see what satisfies and what leads to bondage." -- Rebecca Pippert
