Horus Michael's Effective Egyptian Magic (KheriHebism) Nesu Pr-aa Qrist Copyright (c) 2018 Horus Michael, All rights reserved. This book contains new spells and ceremonies by the author. Spell categories range from: Protection, Financial or Attraction, Medical-Healing (Mind over Matter), Love/Relationships, Peace/Goodwill, Court or Legal, City/Nome, Success, to Counter Magic (in case one is attacked psychically), Weather Manipulation (to cause or stop storms, etc.), Picture Magic (uses pictures to help Visualization), & the Afterlife. Also included is Ordination for Egyptian Priest/Mages, summoning Akhu, a comparison of Ancient Astronomy in the form of Christianity (QRST), Initiation, Foundation Deposits, and a (new) Marriage Ceremony. The spells are intended for Advanced Mages (not necessarily Novices, but over time this will be necessary). By practicing Ancient Egyptian Magic you can develop Psychic abilities, as you do with religions unknowingly. Focused Mental Energy develops Telepathy (from "hard prayer"), Clairvoyance (Telepathy + Time), Astral Projection/Remote Viewing (during sleep or meditation), Telekinesis (gravity manipulation), Elemental (Telekinesis + Weather), and Chronokinesis (Telekinesis + Time). The Dual Nature of the Egyptian Gods (Neteru) allows for positive spells to invert or become negative reactions if the chosen Deity is upset or angry with the Priest (i.e. You). Avoid this by not using the spells longer than needed for the desired reaction. Once done, remove the added bookmark or photograph, to recharge the book.
Boris Khersonsky and Ludmila Khersonsky write poetry that speaks to the crisis of our time, when refugees run from bombardments, nonstop propaganda flows from TV, and neighbors begin to hate their neighbors. The setting is Ukraine at the start of the twenty-first century, but it is eerily recognizable anywhere. These brief lyric poems speak about the memory of historical trauma and witness stark individual voices that pierce the wall of complacency. What is the music of such times? What is its metaphysics? This collection gives us an unflinching, memorable response.

Like all classical Greek texts on science, Euclid's works on optics initially came to the West mainly through medieval Arabic texts and commentaries. While several Greek versions of the Optika were discovered and translated as early as the sixteenth century, sorting out what may have been Euclid's original has not been easy. This book presents a critical translation of an Arabic texts and of Arabic commentaries on the text, and places the whole in a historical context. The Optics is particularly interesting in that Euclid's text was considerably transformed in the process of translation into Arabic "equivalents"; in addition, several of the Arabic editions of Euclid's text (c. 300 BC) contained liberal admixtures of a much later book by Ptolemy (c. 200 AD) of the same title. What was referred to as "Euclid's Optics," the "Kitab Uqlidis fi Ikhtilaf al-manazir," thus became as much an exposition of an Arabic version of a visual theory as a translation of Euclid's ideas on the subject. In preparing this edition, Dr. Kheirandish has thus not only sorted out the various manuscript versions of Al-Manazir, but also related and unrelated texts that were often confused with it.
