Dieses Buch will den Leser einen neuen Blick auf die Großen Arkana des Tarot werfen lassen und ihn auch anleiten, einen Weg des inneren Wachstums und der Bewusstwerdung zu gehen. Die Großen Arkana zeigen uns den Weg zum Erwachen und zum Glück. Das mag zu vollmundig klingen, aber diese Lehren sind ganz spezifisch und revolutionär, wenn wir sie verstehen. Sie reden nicht von spirituellen Allgemeinplätzen, wie sie manchmal im New Age zusammengerührt wurden, sondern weisen uns auf den schmalen Pfad hin, den nur wenige finden.

Da sempre misuriamo il mondo. Per conoscerlo ed esplorarlo, per viverci, per interagire con i nostri simili. L'umanità misura per conoscere il passato, comprendere il presente, progettare il futuro. Ci sono voluti però millenni perché due rivoluzioni, quella scientifica iniziata con Galileo e quella francese, avviassero il percorso per rendere il sistema di misura condiviso e non più basato su deperibili artefatti umani, ma su elementi invariabili e universali della natura.

Gli spaccapietre cinesi, i braccianti macedoni, le badanti ucraine, i rider africani, i bengalesi nei cantieri navali, gli allevatori sikh. Da una parte la necessità delle aziende di competere a livello globale sui mercati, dall’altra la rivoluzione digitale, da un’altra ancora la possibilità di usufruire di servizi e merci a prezzi bassi ci portano a nuove forme di schiavismo, più sottili, più opache, talvolta legalizzate.

Il mito delle origini è quello che ci fa pensare che esista un punto magico della storia in cui tutto prende forma, tutto comincia e tutto si spiega; il punto in cui si cela l'intimo segreto della nostra identità. Ma perché quello delle origini è solo un mito? Il fatto è che le origini, di per sé, spiegano poco: l'identità nasce dalla storia, da come quelle origini si sviluppano, crescono, cambiano attraverso incontri e incroci spesso imprevedibili.

In the late 1960s, Patsy Channing, a stunningly beautiful young woman, was suspended from the venerable Mississippi State College for Women for breach of conduct. The resulting scandal reached all the way to the Columbus courthouse, and the press ate it up. But Patsy's story starts long before that, living with a preoccupied and troubled mother in Memphis, Tennessee. Music becomes her ticket out and a vehicle for the one thing she covets most—a chance to be crowned Miss America. In Confessions of a Southern Beauty Queen, Julie Hines Mabus provides a peek into that world.
