Wicca for Beginners

Wicca for Beginners

Merle Deckert

Jason Thawne
2022
pokkari
The real reason for this is that there are no predefined paths to follow and no authorities to respect: everyone can find their own path and self-initiate as a practitioner.There is, however, an upside to the coin: the risk is to get lost among improvised little books and thus acquire scattered notions devoid of any organicity, therefore useless in order to successfully channel the magical power of the rituals. Here is a preview of what you will learn in this wicca guide for beginnersWhat true wicca is and not the misunderstandings that many people believe.Learn what the wicca rule of the 3 is all about and the moral code all real wiccan follows.Learn wicca protection spells that can help you in your life.Learn more about wicca candle magic and candle spells.Learn love and blessing spells.Wicca has had its ups and downs in the magical neighborhood, flourishing on appeal shortly after its inception, and today in full force as magick and other nature-centered practices return to popular culture. Wicca draws heavily from these pre-christian cultures and their practices, while utilizing the 20th century lens of companionship and initiations, similar to the hierarchical societies of the victorian era.

pokkari
It is possible that the capacity to communicate effectively when one is talking is the single most crucial skill that a person can ever master. It has repercussions for all aspects of your life, including the social, the functional, and the professional. Despite this, many of us do not give it the consideration it deserves. That is not the correct answer. Even those who have spent their whole lives communicating in their mother language are sometimes taken aback when they discover that their communication is not always crystal clear.Learn how to unlock the transforming power of good communication and empathy to establish meaningful relationships with others and flourish in every facet of your life. The book "Effective Communication and Empathy" is a comprehensive resource that may help readers improve their social skills and empathy, as well as cultivate meaningful connections.This book equips you with the skills necessary to negotiate social dynamics and overcome obstacles to communication by drawing on the ideas and methods of industry experts. Learn about the effects that technology has had on people's social skills, the necessity of emotional intelligence as the basis for good communication, and the critical role that listening with attention has in all of this.The same may be said for analytical and deductive reasoning. When confronted with a challenge, do you find that you experience feelings of anxiety and stress? What if I told you that you can tackle challenges in a calm and collected manner? The key is being able to think critically and assess situations, both personally and professionally. You will be able to make well-informed judgments and find solutions to every challenge that stands in your way after you have mastered these failsafe tactics.

The Ladies are Upstairs

The Ladies are Upstairs

Merle Collins

Peepal Tree Press Ltd
2011
nidottu
From the 1930s to the new century, Doux Thibaut, one of Merle Collins' most memorable characters, negotiates a hard life on the Caribbean island of Paz. As a child there is the shame of poverty and illegitimacy, and there are the hazards of sectarianism in an island divided between Catholic and Protestant, the rigidity of a class and racial system where, if you are black, your white employer is always right—and only the ladies live upstairs. Doux confronts all such challenges with style and hidden steel.We leave Doux as an old lady moving between the homes of her children in Boston and New York, wondering whether they and her grandchildren really appreciate what her engagement with life has taught her. In these tender and moving stories, Merle Collins demands that we do not forget such lives. If ghosts appear in several of the later stories, they are surely there to warn that amnesia about the past can leave disturbed and restless spirits behind.In addition to the Doux stories, this collection restores to print an earlier 'Paz' story, Rain Darling, and their juxtaposition contrasts two very different responses to the hazards of life.Merle Collins is Grenadian. She is the author of two novels, a collection of short stories and two previous collections of poetry. She teaches Caribbean literature at the University of Maryland.

First published to great acclaim in 1987, Angel begins in 1951, when the workers of Grenada revolted against the white estate owners, moving forward to 1983 when the US invaded to put an end to a radical experiment that had turned violently in on itself. At the story's heart are the headstrong Angel and her mother, Doodsie. What makes Angel such a rewarding novel to return to, especially in this revised new edition, is the seamless movement between the warmth and tensions of family life and the seriousness of irruptive, life-changing political conflict."[There is] a richness, a thickness, a stinging slangy that-there thingyness of observation and detail…" Robert Nye, The GuardianMerle Collins was born in 1950 in Aruba. She was deeply involved in the Grenadian revolution and served as a research coordinator for the Government of Grenada. Her second novel, The Colour of Forgetting, was published in 1995, and her short-story collection The Ladies are Upstairs by Peepal Tree in 2011. Her third and most recent poetry collection is Lady in a Boat (Peepal Tree, 2003). She teaches Caribbean Literature at the University of Maryland.

The Colour of Forgetting

Merle Collins

PEEPAL TREE PRESS LTD
2023
nidottu
Set on the Caribbean island of Paz (not a million miles from Grenada), this is a book that creates a space between epic poetry and the novel in the way its sequence of interludes bring into focus the lives of family and community through time – and in the confinements of space. It moves from the days of slavery through to the 1980s, through the difficult inheritance of one family – or rather the disinheritance of those in the family born illegitimate. Throughout, the novel conveys a powerful sense of place, of both attachment and confinement, of the meaning of land in relation to the island’s smallness, and the ever-present danger of the communal violence that can spring from those pressures. Through the generations comes the voice of three generations of the women the islanders know as Carib, warner women, whose prophecies of disaster are dismissed as madness, but who have an unerring sense of what is to come. Signalled in her title, Merle Collins has much to say about the nature of memory and the fatal nature of amnesia when it comes to the lessons of the past. Whilst the book is written in the continuing shadow of Grenada’s catastrophe of 1983, it signals hope in small things: the courage of women like Mamag who will not be silenced, the reconciliation between father and son that crosses the incomprehension between generations, the capacity of a young man to confront his innermost fears.

The mother of the revolutionary firebrand Malcolm X was a Grenadian woman born at the turn of the 20th century in a small rural community in a deeply colonial society where access to education had only just begun for the children of working people. She emigrated to Canada and then the USA, where she became involved in the struggle for Black dignity and human rights then led by Marcus Garvey and the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Malcolm X and others of his siblings have testified to their mother's powerful influence on their lives. Within the sparse facts of Louise Langdon Norton Little's biography, Merle Collins, the distinguished Grenadian novelist, has created a moving and deeply feminist work of fiction that gives vivid inwardness to both the heroism and tragedy of a life that involved fighting the Ku Klux Klan, discovering that male comrades in the struggle could be abusers at home, recognition of her skills as an organiser, but also a period of mental collapse that saw her incarcerated in a mental hospital until her family fought for her release. What Merle Collins dramatizes is the meeting of a collective struggle for equal rights with an individual life profoundly shaped by growing up with her forceful matriarchal grandmother and by her schooling. In the classroom she meets teachers who show Oseyan, Louise's family name, how to turn the imperialist ideology of her schoolbooks on its head. These are the contexts of Oseyan's life, but what Merle Collins most profoundly gives us is its breathing texture, through a mix of fictive narrative, letters and poetry, with episodes of great warmth, exuberant humour and drama, as well as the pathos of separation from community.

Diorama with Fleeing Figures

Diorama with Fleeing Figures

Merle Lyn Bachman

Shearsman Books
2009
pokkari
The poems in 'Diorama with Fleeing Figures' delicately point to devastating historical events. Instead of mounting judgments, the poems accrue power gently, even stealthily. Evoking a language at once lost, familiar, original, and dying, they balance fragments of culture, with a locus of Jewish Eastern Europe, against intimate imagery of the body-"the most confused part of the forest."

Blood Party

Blood Party

Merle Lyn Bachman

Shearsman Books
2015
nidottu
"Merle Bachman's Blood Party is a remarkable memoir, told in fragments, interruptions-in ways that prohibit any fixed retelling. In it, the impossibility of telling becomes the story: of ancestry, family, and a mother's silence, pieced-together in a poetry that is always vibrating yet never arrives." -Kristin Prevallet"Memory has its own architecture, its own geography. Yet, as Merle Bachman demonstrates in Blood Party, these are mutable-stretching and contracting within the space of experience: strafing events to get at their illogic and yet/memory, remaking. Bachman's beautifully crafted, acutely sensitive poems adroitly combine history, autobiography, and lyric meditation. If space is 'the externalization of what you really are,' then Bachman risks sculpting space in a boldly disclosive and passionate way. This is a poetry that sends messages into the hidden sites of memory and returns with color, form, and commitment." -Elizabeth Robinson"Poetry as memoir, as autobiography, as family history: Merle Bachman's Blood Party is all this, but much more. The hybridity of Bachman's writing also produces a time warp, opens up a temporal portal through which we may pass into the heart of mid-20th century Jewish American culture, as it seeks to assure itself of its newfound and still inchoate position in the larger American landscape. Looking through the eyes of 'M,' Bachman's everygirl, we see the photos, the vignettes, the momentary gestures of a world constantly receding to an increasingly poignant horizon. Never sentimental, never anything but honest in its sympathy with the flawed, ordinary lives of succeeding generations (including her own), Blood Party is written in ways that swoop and hover, expand and contract with each emotional nuance." -Norman Finkelstein

Lady in a Boat

Lady in a Boat

Merle Collins

Peepal Tree Press Ltd
2003
nidottu
In poems that express an oblique and resonant disquiet ('people dream of a lady/ in a boat, dressed in red/ petticoat, adrift and weeping') and a sequence that addresses memories of the death of the Grenadian revolution, too painful to confront until now, Merle Collins writes of a Caribbean adrift, amnesiac and in danger of nihilistic despair. But she also achieves a life-enhancing and consoling perspective on those griefs. She does this by revisiting the hopes and humanities of the people involved, recreating them in all their concrete particularity, or by speaking through the voice of an eighty-year-old woman 'making miracle/ with little money because turn hand is life lesson', and in writing poems that celebrate love, the world of children and the splendours of Caribbean nature. Her poems take the 'new dead ancestors back to/ mountain to feed the fountain/ of dreams again.'Merle Collins is Grenadian. She is the author of two novels, a collection of short stories and two previous collections of poetry. She teaches Caribbean literature at the University of Maryland.

A raft with eleven Algerian refugees, running low on fuel. A cruise ship with a small town’s worth of international passengers and crew members. An Irish freighter. A Spanish rescue vessel. One single point of convergence in a vast wash of blue water. Miami-based The Spirit of Europe, the third largest cruise liner in the world, plows through the Mediterranean every summer, offering its passengers a temporary escape from their everyday lives. But even the bloated tackiness of the ship’s much-hyped belly flop competition is not immune to the chaos of the European migration crisis. When a disabled raft nears The Spirit of Europe, the ship’s captain is forced to do something headquarters in Miami wants to avoid: cut the engines. Collision is a maritime thriller by one of Germany’s most celebrated crime writers, building suspense through the eyes of a diverse array of memorable characters, among them Karim Yacine, the Algerian captain of the raft disable; Lalita Masarangi, member of the massive cruise ship’s security team; and Sybille Malinowski, an elderly passenger on holiday with her sister, which, as the drama at sea continues to unfold, seems to be turning increasingly sinister. Central to all of it is Nikhil “Nike” Mehta, the cruise ship’s ambitious head of security who, like an illusionist, makes the ship’s relentless problems disappear. As Collision races toward its surprising conclusion, Nike’s particular solution for the Algerian refugees at sea might be his greatest slight of hand yet.
