Deep, Beautiful, Accessible... A personal favorite

Sat, 7 Aug 2004 21:18:35 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author LauraBKeen - My favorite deck for giving readings to others is usually the Osho Zen Tarot. Born in India, Osho was a mystic who received information on and spoke about spiritual traditions from around the world, with Taoism and Zen Buddhism being his personal focus...

The Quill is Mightier Than The Pikestaff

Mon, 8 Jan 2001 21:39:47 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author LauraBKeen - Yes, there is nudity, sex and perversion here -- just as with most modern blockbuster movies! However, there is much more to see than Joaquin Phoenix's bare chest or the endowments of Geoffrey Rush and Kate Winslet. Witty quips keep us laughing through...

From Ugly Ducking to Beautiful Swan

Sun, 15 Oct 2000 06:20:52 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author LauraBKeen - Billy Elliot is a truly inspirational movie. It reminds us of the human potential to transcend our economic surroundings and the expectations of society by doing something so simple, and yet sometimes so very difficult, as simply being ourselves.

Stiller does Seinfeld - De Niro relaxes with The Family

Thu, 12 Oct 2000 02:20:03 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author LauraBKeen - I was very pleasantly surprised by this wonderful movie. I have to admit that I probably would not have gone to see it if I had not been given a stack of free passes for the sneak preview. The TV ads had lead me to believe that it might be yet another...

iMac: The Best Use of a Gun I Have Seen on TV in Years

Thu, 16 Mar 2000 01:55:34 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author LauraBKeen - I think that is a great commercial and expresses the way that many users feel about the product pictured - and what they would like to do with it.

In regard to the GUN issue - here we have one normal man with one gun shooting an inanimate...

Old Ideas & New Effects - More Feelings Than Action

Mon, 13 Mar 2000 16:52:25 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author LauraBKeen - When I saw the previews for this movie, I really wasn't sure whether I would like it or not. Obviously it was based on the "star seed" idea that has been floating in the New Age and other communities around for years - and well, anyone who is...

A Powerful Pagan Novel of Nature-centered Goddess Worship written well before Wicca was "Wicca"

Fri, 14 Jan 2000 06:50:32 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author LauraBKeen - Wow!

I recently started looking through deTraci Regula's book, The Mysteries of Isis: Her Worship and Magick. In the preface to that book, she mentions that her beliefs and practices were first sparked by two books written by Dion Fortune:...

The Talented Mr. Damon

Fri, 14 Jan 2000 05:02:24 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author LauraBKeen - It all begins with the loan of a simple jacket, or so we are told, but I have to wonder if it all began long before Mr. Ripley played piano that one fateful day. A bit of mistaken identity, or more aptly mistaken social class (ie. passing for having gone...

A deeply artistic commentary on the nature of the human heart

Thu, 30 Dec 1999 04:47:35 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author LauraBKeen - Nine years after Pearl Harbor, a Caucasian reporter (Ethan Hawke) covers the murder trail of the husband of his Japanese-American childhood sweetheart (Youki Kudoh) as he struggles to follow in his dead father's footsteps. In this small farming and...

The Way to More than Creativity

Wed, 29 Dec 1999 01:35:35 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author LauraBKeen - I think the reason some reviewers have so much trouble with this book is that it requires so much deep work from the user. I say user, not reader, because this is a book that clearly states that needs to be "worked through" and it does. It...

Makes your commitment to Morning Pages easier

Wed, 29 Dec 1999 00:48:42 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author LauraBKeen - I bought the Morning Pages Journal in a set with the Artist's Way and I am glad that I did. I often find myself eagerly starting new projects only to find myself losing my commitment within a week or so. The same is true with the first time I tried the...

Witchy, Pagan, Gothic - and Beautiful

Tue, 28 Dec 1999 23:47:12 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author LauraBKeen - How can a man of science seek to defeat that which one can not explain?

Johnny Depp plays a classic detective and Christina Ricci plays a young fam trad witch. There are background stories of money & sex that have to be unraveled as we...

A Modern Day Mortality Play

Tue, 28 Dec 1999 23:25:35 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author LauraBKeen - The View from a Poly Kinky Switch Witch -

I have to say that I liked the movie but didn't like the moral. It is obviously a modern day mortality play about what happens when one seeks to stray outside the bounds of a monogamous relationship,...

Yes - Little Bear is very Pagan / Shamanic / Nature-Centered

Tue, 28 Dec 1999 23:14:20 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author LauraBKeen - I have Pagan & Shamanic friends who have kids, and who absolutely love Little Bear. One household has been collecting all the videos and it is often the one thing that we can all agree to watch when the families are gathered together.

Fri, 17 Dec 1999 04:25:58 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author LauraBKeen - Whether you are interested in Women's Spirituality, Wicca or Paganism in general, this is *the* classic. It is a workbook which will take you through the beliefs and holidays as well as giving you examples of workings and rituals. It is less...
