"Този призрачен град ме преследва и в сънищата. Наясно съм, че никога няма да забравя времето, което прекарах тук, в Трипъл Фолс. Все още ги усещам до мен - моите летни момчета. Но когато опасността дойде до прага ми, аз се предадох. Не се вслушах в нито едно предупреждение. Позволих на болестта и любовта да ме водят и унищожат. Всички носим вина за случилото се. Бяхме нехайни и безразсъдни, мислехме, че младостта ни прави недостижими, освободени от грехове, което ни струваше скъпо. Това е причината да се върна - да се помиря със съдбата си. Да се примиря с това, което съм, независимо от всички и всичко. Не мога да ... |

In her search for respectability her fortunes fluctuate wildly, and the story assumes the proportions of a Greek tragedy. It explores Tess's relationships with two very different men, her struggle against the social mores of ... |

The Tarot of Light and Shadow presents a new multi-layered way of working with the Tarot: using two decks to explore the Shadow and Light sides of any questions at once. Although some professional readers have used this idea with different packs, and to great effect, this is the first time two Tarot decks have been designed specifically to work together. In fact, they can be seen not as two separate decks but as one deck appearing in two dimensions. The principle of the two-deck system can be explained as follows: there are two sides to every question and two sides to every answer. Answers come both from within and ... |
