All Hallow's Eve Oracle
A vibrant book and card deck set that weaves the myth and magic of All Hallow’s Eve with the healing energy of light language. The All Hallow’s Eve Oracle is a grimoire-like journey into the mysteries of the sacred feminine, illuminated by our own light essence. It invites practitioners to shift perspectives, challenge narratives, rewrite stories, and reconnect with their inner voice—reinterpreting symbolism for themselves. This dynamic book and deck collection features legends and myths that expand our perceptions, traversing into the liminal and light language that guides us beyond the linear mind into deep intuitive connection. Magical elements weave lyrical dreaming through vivid symbolism, flowering into an ultra-sensory flow with light language, bridging to the limitless creative potentials of our multidimensionality. Designed as a grimoire, the guidebook weaves myths with enchantment, each entry reading like a spell. The full-color cards, layered with symbolism, bypass the analytical mind to awaken deep wisdom. Together, they bridge ancient customs with galactic spirituality, encouraging receptivity, fluidity, and intuitive remembrance. Words Have Magic: the poetry for each card can be cast as a spell to draw the reader deeper into the cards they represent, whether an animal spirit guide, a divination tool, or an elemental omen, allowing the reader to form a personal relationship with each of the cards and what they representCreative Concept: this deck is a synthesis of ancient mythology across different cultures and ages and the galactic myths we are now discovering as we remember more of our connection to the cosmosLight Language: Each card comes with its own channeled light language, a quantum link to the language of the stars. Light language is a nonlinear expression, which allows us to bypass the limits of the monkey chatter of our mental confines and tap into our more intuitive (sacred femininity) and multisensory connection to the wider universe

Spomienka na Rudolfa Steinera
Antropozofická lekárka Ita Wegmanová v sebe dlho nosila zámer zostaviť svoje spomienky na Rudolfa Steinera z posledného obdobia jeho života – vrcholu vzostupu antropozofie. Počas života Rudolfa Steinera si len zriedka zaznamenávala svoje zážitky zo stretnutí s ním – alebo sa tieto vôbec nezachovali. Mnohé naznačuje, že Ita Wegmanová nevidela potrebu písomného záznamu svojich zážitkov a prežitých skúseností a chránila to, čo bolo vzácne, tým, že to nezaznamenávala. Formovala svoje neskoršie pamätné prejavy z hlbín svojich vnútorných spomienok – zdieľala to, čo považovala za prístupné a vhodné zdieľať. Veľa z toho videla na vlastné oči, vrátane osobných rozhovorov. Wegmanová sa však nakoniec rozhodla proti publikovaniu. Medzi jej dokumentmi sa našli dôležité poznámky, zápisy zo zápisníkov a rukopisy prednášok.
V tejto súvislosti bolo jasným rozhodnutím publikovať niektoré z jej spomienok na Rudolfa Steinera z rukopisov poznámkovej knihy pri príležitosti 66. výročia úmrtia Ity Wegmanovej, ako aj opäť sprístupniť rôzne eseje a články, ktoré napísala krátko po smrti svojho učiteľa – v obavách o budúcnosť Antropozofickej spoločnosti a v snahe zachovať centrum antropozofie, jej tvorcu, jeho dielo a jeho zámery. Kniha v slovenskom preklade vychádza k 100. výročiu úmrtia Rudolfa Steinera.
