Mejia pulls from the bloody and violent history of oppression in many different Latin American countries.

Tension between the two grow, but so do their feelings for one another. Dani and Carmen hate each other, but are forced to come together after they are chosen to be the wives of Mateo Garcia, the son of a powerful government official.

Those afoot with the early single-shot rifles were no match for mounted Indians skilled with arrows and lances. Army, they did so on horseback, while their opponents rode to battle, then dismounted for the fight. When they encountered other tribes, or the U.S. In fact, the Comanches were the first plainsmen to use horses in battle. Gwynne traces the rise of the Comanche people, their fierceness in battle and their mastery of the horse. Gwynne has written a scholarly, unbiased chronicle of the Plains Indians, particularly the Comanches. Empire of the Summer Moon: Quanah Parker and the Rise and Fall of the Comanches, the Most Powerful Indian Tribe in American History, has finally sated my curiosity. Quanah Parker has been a fascinating historical figure to me for many years. The same type of training and dedication were required in the Star Wars universe for mastery of the Force. While there were some shortcuts that non-Green Bones could take, mastery required training and dedication from childhood. The Green Bones were trained from childhood in the use of bioenergetic jade, focusing on six basic disciplines (channeling, deflection, lightness, strength, perception and steel). This isn’t a book review blog, but there was one thing that caught my attention in this Saga that also caught my attention in the Star Wars universe. And taking heed of a piece of advice I’ve taken to heart when working with others, I’m giving myself a bit of a break and seeing what I can do on this through the rest of 2022.Īdmittedly it is only Jade City that is on this particular list, but the entire trilogy, often called the Green Bone Saga, is on the 2022 Hugo award shortlist for best series and so I decided to read the whole trilogy (and I’m glad I did). I’d set reading through this particular list of the best 100 fantasy novels back at the beginning of 2021, but needless to say, the world got strange, through 2021 and so far through 2022. So go forth and read.Īnd I am behind on my 2022 reading project. If you haven’t yet read Jade City (and Jade War and Jade Legacy), they are awesome and I recommend them very highly. Let me start by noting that unlike many of the other reading project posts, there is a genuine spoiler alert here.

Identify the archetypal foundation of synchronistic events and use that awareness to discern the subjective meaning of these events as they may occur to themselves or to others Jung within the context of his analytical psychologyĭescribe the four distinctive aspects of synchronistic events that differentiate them from ordinary coincidences Understand the concept of synchronicity and why this concept is important to the later theoretical work of C.G. Using his own recent research on synchronistic events within family and love relationships specifically, he will be using these stories to show how synchronicity operates through the archetype of "family" unconsciously to create wholeness in our lives through what seems at first to us like random chance. In this lecture, Rob Hopcke will be presenting the four aspects of synchronistic events that make up Jung's thoughts on this phenomenon in order to place this notion within the overall context of Jung's theories on analytical psychology. Jung's concept of synchronicity or meaningful chance is one of his most engaging and familiar.

Each entry contributes to The Guide‘s impressive mosaic of information and evaluation. Instead, scientific discovery, the history of perfumery, social commentary and philosophical reverie unfold almost organically with the reviews. Facts abound, but Turin and Sanchez steer clear of a pedantic approach. The Guide‘s elegant reviews condense acerbic wit, enviable knowledge, and contagious passion, via bright narrative vignettes. To me, it serves more as a companion to sampling, discussing, contemplating and enjoying perfumes. The book is neither an encyclopedia nor a shopping guide. True, the authors do not hold back symphonic praise or fiendish criticism. True, it does not include catalog descriptions for the archives. True, the book does not offer scent pyramids for each fragrance. Critics of The Guide lament its lack of objective descriptions, along with the occasional lambasting of a cherished scent. Perfume reviews would not create a buzz if they it didn’t ruffle a few feathers.
