In a world where the night sky holds more than just its twinkling beauty, "The Language of Stars" weaves a captivating tale of destiny, love, and the power of belief. Here, the alignment of stars is not a mere spectacle but a profound force that determines the course of one's life. In this extraordinary realm, an astronomy enthusiast and a skeptical astrologer find themselves entangled in a web of fate, drawn together by a connection they cannot explain. Meet our protagonist, an ardent lover of celestial wonders, who spends nights gazing at the stars and decoding their secrets. This astronomy enthusiast cherishes the knowledge of the universe and revels in the scientific precision it offers, finding solace in the laws that govern the cosmos. On the other side of the celestial spectrum stands the skeptical astrologer, a person who scoffs at the idea of destiny being dictated by the positioning of the stars. This individual relies on reason, dismissing the notion that the universe can dictate human connections and affection. Despite their opposing beliefs, a chance encounter brings these two souls together, and as if guided by some cosmic force, they feel an unexplainable pull toward each other. As they embark on a journey to uncover the truth behind the stars and the ancient belief of soulmates, they are thrust into a world of enchantment and mystery. Their quest takes them through hidden observatories, ancient legends, and practitioners of celestial magic. Along the way, they find themselves questioning their beliefs and embracing the possibility that there may be more to the universe than they ever imagined. "The Language of Stars" is a tale of exploration, not only of the night sky but also of the depths of the human heart. As they stargaze together, sharing dreams and fears, their friendship blossoms into something extraordinary, defying the boundaries of their opposing ideologies. But their path is not without obstacles, for there are those who seek to protect the status quo, keeping the truth about the stars hidden from the world. As they push forward, they must confront their own doubts, face adversaries, and challenge the very foundations of the belief system that has shaped their society for generations. In this extraordinary journey of self-discovery, friendship, and love, our protagonists will unlock the secrets of an ancient prophecy and rewrite the very fabric of their destinies. As they dare to question the stars themselves, they discover a love that transcends the limits of the heavens, proving that sometimes, the true language of stars is written not in their positions but in the beating of two hearts drawn together by an inexplicable cosmic force. Join them on this remarkable odyssey and immerse yourself in a world where the skies hold more than just wonder, they hold the key to rewriting their own tale of love and destiny.

ABOUT THE BOOK: What if geometric motifs in pre-Columbian American art, long dismissed as merely decorative, hold meaning of astronomical time and ancient cosmovision? In The Sacred Language of the Stars, Dr. Peter Trutmann shares compelling scholarly evidence for this conclusion, culminating in a preliminary dictionary of geometric symbols, and demonstrations of how the three motifs can be used to read richer meaning in complex visual scenes written by ancient Peruvian and Mesoamerican cultures.The book begins with a background on the curious lack of systematic research of these motifs, despite their prevalence in much of the art of pre-Columbian Americans from the south of South America through to North America, and proceeds to the analysis of three motifs: the stair-like stepped motif, the spiral motif, and the triangle motif, which are displayed on the cover of the book. The hypothesized meanings are verified using 'Rosetta Stone'-like scenes featuring the motifs and cross-checked with computer-based astronomic information and early writings.After half a millennium of destruction, suppression, and dismissal of indigenous culture knowing the meaning of these motifs provides new tools to help us interpret history from the perspective of the ancient Americans and gives them back a voice. ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Dr. Peter Trutmann is a scientist by training. He is author of numerous peer reviewed papers, reviews and books and has worked for well-known universities including Cornell University in the USA, the ETH-Zurich in Switzerland, La Trobe University in Australia and international research organizations. His research frequently connects with ancient and traditional knowledge. From an early professional age he incorporated anthropological approaches into biological research to provide insights into the complexity of constraints on local systems of food production and perceptions of indigenous farmers. Over the last ten years he has been investigating key neglected themes in the Andes with the Swiss NGO, Global Mountain Action. Part of this effort includes a quest to better understand the meaning of the mysterious geometric motifs used from South to North America that until now have been largely overlooked, but which provide insight into the minds, cosmovision and communication of Ancient Americans.

This tale of love, grief, and a young woman’s quest for vengeance offers “a re-envisioning of the fantasy genre rich in imagination” (Quill & Quire). An Aurora Award Finalist and Locus Award Nominee for Best First Novel At eighteen, Jaele’s life is shattered when her family is murdered by a band of Raiders, members of a long-accursed race. Overwhelmed by rage and grief, alone for the first time in her life, and fueled by childhood myths of a warrior queen, Jaele sets out on an epic quest for vengeance. Her journey takes Jaele through a kaleidoscope of cultures, some compassionate, some fierce, all remarkably fantastic yet potently real. As she makes her difficult way, Jaele sheds her innocence, but none of her experiences can prepare her for her ultimate confrontation with her enemy. “While still working within the genre parameters of standard fantasy, Sweet has created something unique; a thoughtful, meditative, distinctly feminine fantasy novel, a rich fever-dream of a book.” —Quill & Quire

Enriched by numerous case studies and years of client experience, this book guides readers to move beyond the tangled web of stories they tell themselves and others about their lives, relationships, illnesses, and disruptive life patterns. Step-by-step, the chapters uncover the origins of behaviors and feelings such as drug or alcohol addiction, failed careers, and depression. Hidden loyalties to people and ideas are introduced as the underlying causes of these obstacles, which cloud the path to success and cause people to believe the stories they tell themselves, eventually losing touch with the truth. Through the examples in this book, readers will learn to acknowledge and embrace truth, spelling out the explicit facts and rejecting the fictions they have created to excuse their failings.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER | A REESE WITHERSPOON X HELLO SUNSHINE BOOK CLUB PICK “A great narrative about personal strength and really captures how books bring communities together.” —Reese Witherspoon From the author of The Last Letter from Your Lover, now a major motion picture on Netflix, a breathtaking story of five extraordinary women and their remarkable journey through the mountains of Kentucky and beyond in Depression-era America Alice Wright marries handsome American Bennett Van Cleve, hoping to escape her stifling life in England. But small-town Kentucky quickly proves equally claustrophobic, especially living alongside her overbearing father-in-law. So when a call goes out for a team of women to deliver books as part of Eleanor Roosevelt’s new traveling library, Alice signs on enthusiastically. The leader, and soon Alice's greatest ally, is Margery, a smart-talking, self-sufficient woman who's never asked a man's permission for anything. They will be joined by three other singular women who become known as the Packhorse Librarians of Kentucky. What happens to them--and to the men they love--becomes an unforgettable drama of loyalty, justice, humanity, and passion. These heroic women refuse to be cowed by men or by convention. And though they face all kinds of dangers in a landscape that is at times breathtakingly beautiful, at others brutal, they’re committed to their job: bringing books to people who have never had any, arming them with facts that will change their lives. Based on a true story rooted in America’s past, The Giver of Stars is unparalleled in its scope and epic in its storytelling. Funny, heartbreaking, enthralling, it is destined to become a modern classic--a richly rewarding novel of women’s friendship, of true love, and of what happens when we reach beyond our grasp for the great beyond.

In this volume Cleanth Brooks pays tribute to the language and literature of the American South. He writes of the language's unique syntax and its celebrated languorous rhythms; of the classical allusions and Addisonian locutions once favored by the gentry; and of the more earthbound eloquence, rooted in the dialect of England's southern lowlands, that is still heard in the speech of the region's plain folk. It is this rich spoken language, Brooks suggests, that has always been the life blood of southern writing. The strong tradition of storytelling in the South is reflected in the tales told by Joel Chandler Harris's Uncle Remus and in the obsessive retellings that structure William Faulkner's novels and stories. But even more crucially, the language of the South--firmly rooted in the land but with a tendency to reach for the heavens above--has shaped the literary concerns and molded the complex visions to be found in the poetry of Robert Penn Warren and John Crowe Ransom; the stories of Flannery O'Connor, Peter Taylor, and Eudora Welty; and the novels of Warren, Allen Tate, and Walker Percy.
