Naomi Bennett, "Foundations of Astrology"
English | 2014 | ISBN: 1892134020 | ASIN: B00NKBZNOE | EPUB | pages: 168 | 2.9 mb
Astrology in the 21st century is undergoing a dramatic change as the integration of modern and historical astrology merge into a new working design that is based on astronomy and the sacred geometry of life. Naomi Bennett looks at astrology's roots and it's underlying structure to unlock the hidden design that was created by ancient civilizations that believed the macrocosm is reflected in the microcosm, that the patterns in the sky are reflected on Earth.

Naomi Bennett analyzes these correspondences to tie the hidden geometry of our life events to astrological patterns. She reviews current events with modern techniques to increase the reliability of astrological predictions and she answers the question, has the Age of Aquarius begun?

Found Christianities Remaking the World of the Second Century CE
M. David Litwa, "Found Christianities: Remaking the World of the Second Century CE"
English | ISBN: 056770386X | 2022 | 336 pages | PDF | 5 MB
M. David Litwa tells the stories of the early Christians whose religious identity was either challenged or outright denied. In the second century many different groups and sects claimed to be the only Orthodox or authentic version of Christianity, and Litwa shows how those groups and figures on the side of developing Christian Orthodoxy often dismissed other versions of Christianity by refusing to call them "Christian". However, the writings and treatises against these groups contain fascinating hints of what they believed, and why they called themselves Christian.

In this wide-ranging study, Ghassan Moazzin sheds critical new light on the history of foreign banks in late 19th and early 20th century China, a time period that saw a substantial influx of foreign financial institutions into China and a rapid increase of both China's foreign trade and its interactions with international capital markets. Drawing on a broad range of German, English, Japanese and Chinese primary sources, including business records, government documents and personal papers, Moazzin reconstructs how during this period foreign banks facilitated China's financial integration into the first global economy and provided the financial infrastructure required for modern economic globalization in China. Foreign Banks and Global Finance in Modern China shows the key role international finance and foreign banks and capital markets played at important turning points in modern Chinese history.
