Hidden Realm. Instead of relying on esoteric symbols, this
powerful deck uses the raw elements—water, air, fire, and
earth—to speak directly to your emotions. The beautifully
drawn figures follow the Rider Waite style, but express more
energy and movement, drawing you in even as you draw their
truths out. The companion guidebook reveals techniques
and card meanings for beginners and more experienced
readers alike.

Can you literally sell your soul for rock ’n’ roll? In the
summer of 1982, the five young musicians of the

contacted them. This dangerous, terrifying being
brought Entropy to the edge of fame, but ultimately
tore them apart.

first-hand story of his band’s encounters with the
Gray Man—a dark entity so powerful it could
punch a hole between worlds and materialize at
will. This demonic creature takes them on one
of the greatest paranormal journeys anyone has
ever experienced. For the members of Entropy,
these real-life adventures with the Devil have never
truly ended.
Marcus F. Griffin (Fort Collins, CO) is an ordained Wiccan priest with well over twenty-nine years of experience in paganism and has been studying paranormal activity for nearly as long.

Traumatized by a poltergeist as a young adult,
Barbara Parks never imagined she would overcome
her fear of the spirit world. This collection of true
ghost stories relates her dramatic, heartwarming
journey toward embracing her gift for spirit
communication.
Barbara uses pendulums, table-tipping, and her
own homemade Ouija table to speak with spirits in
old taverns, hotels, schoolhouses, theaters, and her
own home. Some spirits need her help in reuniting
with loved ones or delivering a special message.
Barbara also offers comfort to suicide and murder
victims, crosses over troubled spirits, calms an angry
poltergeist who can manifest and hurl stones, and
captures spirit energy in photographs. These real-
life paranormal encounters illuminate the mysterious
spirit world—and the fascinating life of a medium.
Barbara Parks (Kalamunda, Western Australia) is a podia-trist who gave up her successful practice in order to become a full-time paranormal investigator and author. She teaches workshops for those who want to learn more about the spirit world, and her paranormal investigations have been featured in The West Australian newspaper.

As a newborn, Janet Larkin died and came back
to life. Then her sister drove over her skull with a
tractor. And when she was eight years old, she had
a conversation with her grandmother who had died
before Janet was born.
So began a life full of ghostly encounters. When
she was still a girl, Janet received foreknowledge of
a double homicide next door, and then she saw the
ghost of one of the victims. In a Memphis hotel room,
she experienced a terrifying demon posing as her
husband. She even telepathically communicated
with the soul of her unborn daughter. Janet has
seen more than her fair share of spirits and spooks
throughout her life, and especially in her haunted
house on Pogey Point. In Surrounded by Ghosts,
Janet recalls her creepiest stories and grapples to
make sense of a life overflowing with unexplained
phenomena.

Flowing from its early, pre-Christian beginnings
through its modern worldview, this book explores
the deities, history, rituals, magic, and religion of
Asatru from the unique perspective of a Gythja
(Godwoman) within that path. The Heathen
trad-ition revealed here describes the structure
of Asatru and shows how its ancient themes,
ideas, and practices are relevant to modern
spiritual seekers.
Clear and easy to understand yet thorough and
comprehensive, A Practical Heathen’s Guide to
Asatru will add depth to the Asatru experience
for those who have practiced this faith for years,
while remaining accessible to beginners. It reveals
Heathen perspectives on the nature of time,
creation, spirits, worship, ethics, and hospitality.
It shares practical techniques such as meditation,
prayer, runes, charms, and life rituals covering birth/
naming, entry into adulthood, weddings, divorces,
funerals, and more. An in-depth glossary, index,
and bibliography help make this the must-read
book for everyone interested in Asatru.

The Wisdom of HypatiaAncient Spiritual Practices for a More Meaningful Life
Bruce J. MacLennan, PhD
Hypatia was the most famous female spiritual
teacher of ancient Alexandria. The mix of classical
philosophies she taught to Pagans, Jews, and
Christians in the fourth century CE forms the very
foundation of Western magic and mysticism as we
know it today.
The Wisdom of Hypatia offers a progressive, nine-
month program based on the teachings of this
inspiring Pagan philosopher. Discover how to bring
purpose, tranquility, and spiritual depth to your life
through exercises and techniques divided into three
stages of wisdom: Epicureanism, Stoicism, and
Neoplatonism. This virtual course in philosophy,
well-being, and divine union is an essential and
practical introduction to the ancient wisdom of
the West.
After reading this book, when you speak [the name of Hypatia], you will know the power of living a well-examined
Pagan life. I strongly recommend it as a guide to becoming closer to the Divine in all its forms.
–Ivo Dominguez, Jr., visionary, esoteric practitioner, and author of Spirit Speak and Beneath the Skins
Bruce J. MacLennan (Knoxville, TN) is a university professor of computer science. For more than forty years, he has been a student of ancient Greek and Roman philosophy and religion.
