Flying saucers carl jung5/22/2023 They therefore possess a “magical” significance, like icons, whose possible efficacy was never consciously felt by the patient.” “Most mandalas have an intuitive, irrational character and, through their symbolical content, exert a retroactive influence on the unconscious. “In the products of the unconscious we discover mandala symbols, that is, circular and quaternity figures which express wholeness, and whenever we wish to express wholeness, we employ just such figures.

Tessa dare diana highwood5/21/2023 Nonetheless, she makes her offer: If Colin will pretend to elope with her and journey to the Royal Geological Society Meeting in Scotland, she will give him her prize money when she (inevitably, she believes) wins the prize for best presentation. She knocks on Payne’s door late at night with a daring proposition in mind, and discovers him distractingly half-naked. Diana is beautiful, and Colin is rich and handsome, but there’s no love between them, and Minerva wants something more for her sister. Minerva Highwood is determined to stop Lord Colin Payne from proposing to her sister Diana. The characters and the dialogue are smart and funny, and it’s a joy to read from start to finish. Anyway, it’s a terrific start to a terrific book. And there might have been a few street signs. For the record, I only walked into a utility pole that one time. Or rather, at A Week to Be Wicked’s dedication, which reads: “For all the girls who walk and read at the same time.” Like the book’s heroine, Minerva…or me.

Jewel e ann out of love5/21/2023 When Reece meets Fisher, he's just gotten out of the shower and is wearing only a towel that he has no qualms with lowering to near indecent levels around her. Fisher will be watching out for Reece while her mother is away. Reece is raised with religious and moral beliefs. She's sheltered by her grandparents, who she lived with after her father died and her mother went to prison. If you can get through the first 60% of the book… I’d say just see it through to the end and maybe pick up the second book to see how everything wraps up. Needless to say, I was intrigued enough to keep going and I’m currently paused in the middle of a chapter of the next book as I write this review. I didn’t really like the journey… but I liked the overall storyline the characters, the gray areas that demand further “book club” discussions, and the cliffhanger that encourages you to see the storyline completely through. And it should be noted that the last few chapters made up for all of it. I didn’t mind the age gap, but the naivety of Reese’s age (sorry Reese) definitely played into the cringy dialogue and inner thoughts. I will not lie… this was a VERY cringy book and at times made me want to throw it across the room. I don’t know it it was because I know some very unprepared women like this or if it was just second hand embarrassment but this book pulled out all kinds of emotions that I’ve re-written several reviews and each time end up with more understanding of the major points the author wanted to convey.

Galore crummey5/21/2023 Yet to step into the spotlight at such vital moments, musicians need to be trained and supported, their world-class skills recognised and celebrated – not as the result of miracles, but of phenomenally hard work. Music was almost constantly present but often hidden, treated as peripheral until it was needed to deliver on the grandest scale. Back in the 21st century and amid current arts funding crises, the coronation’s musical symbolism remained equivocal. As drums were beaten and fanfares sounded, the commentators marvelled that music was essential for battlefield morale. The rest was largely faded out, making space for military manoeuvres. In a rare human moment, we saw the Master of the King’s Music, Judith Weir, listening to her tender, folk-inflected commission Brighter Visions Shine Afar with her eyes closed, head moving gently in time. Michael Crummey Biography Michael Crummey was born in Buchans, a mining town in the interior of Newfoundland ('as far from the salt water as you can get and still be in Newfoundland'), second of four boys he grew up there and in Wabush, another mining town near the Quebec border of Labrador. We joined the English Baroque Soloists midway through some gloriously airborne Bach and there was a flash of impassioned Bruckner from the Monteverdi Choir. Only snatches were included in the TV coverage. Most of the new pieces and many of the old, however, appeared in a separate sequence before the main event, like a playlist for a party too grand for Spotify. The South African soprano Pretty Yende singing at the coronation.

The Undertaking of Tess by Lesley Kagen5/21/2023 But despite her resourcefulness and grit, she's smart enough to know that the odds are stacked against her and her time is running out. Her daddy always told her, "A Finley never throws in the towel," so more than anything Tess wants to make him proud. If she can't achieve her goals, she's desperately worried that her beautiful, but self-centered mother, Louise, might send emotionally fragile Birdie to the county insane asylum. Stronger and more down to earth than ethereal Birdie, Tess has always watched over her sister, so it's only natural for her to come up with a plan that she jots down on one of her never-ending to-do lists. Tessie needs to make sure that she does before their mom gets wind of how much "weirder" her sister's getting. Not only is she attempting to come to grips with the devastating loss and guilt she feels after witnessing her father's death, but her kid sister, Birdie, refuses to believe that their beloved daddy is really gone.

Fearless World Traveler by Laurie Lawlor5/21/2023 “To her delight, the Kew Gardens officials accepted.” “Sadly,” Lawlor observes, “in many cases her paintings are the only remaining record of rare species that are now extinct.”Īs Marianne’s paintings accumulated, she wanted to share them, and offered to donate them to the Kew Royal Botanic Gardens, as well as to construct a special gallery in a quiet part of the gardens to house them. “An early conservation pioneer, Marianne wrote about the alarming devastation she encountered – clear-cut forests, rampant invasive species, and water pollution.” Wherever she went, she painted, sometimes for twelve hours a day, to record what she observed. She visited fifteen countries in fourteen years and saw every continent except Antartica. She traveled around the world twice, by herself. Her father died in 1869 – Marianne was forty – and only then did she begin to pursue her own dreams in earnest. Marianne, age 24, promised to take care of her father, which she did for the next fourteen years, never marrying but supervising his household and serving as his travel companion. Her plans were interrupted, however, in 1855 when Marianne’s mother died. She decided to teach herself about botany whether her family would support it or not. Her family, the author notes, just wanted her to find a rich husband.īut shy Marianne hated the social scene with its rigid conventions. Then she discovered a passion for botany. Marianne North, the eldest of three children, was born on Octoin Hastings, England to a prosperous land-owning family.Īt first Marianne wanted to devote her life to music.
