Book Description
Harness your darkness, get your shit together and create a truly fulfilling life. Indigo Project psychologist Mary Hoang will teach you how to face your fears and anxieties and make meaning from loss and pain, to find your true purpose, meaning, and a life that resonates for you. Hidden in the folds of human life are the stories that most of us want to keep in the dark. The shit storms, our anxieties, the failed relationships, our sadness, our fears of the future, our psychological pain. Darkness is Golden is a commentary on the universal experience of 'darkness' that weighs on us all, and how those shadows can hold the answers we seek. It's an insightful guide on how to embrace the complexity of the mind when navigating emotions and relationships. Exploring themes of meaning, death, disconnection, vulnerability, forgiveness, identity and what it means to be human, Darkness is Golden is a gripping case for the strength that we all hold, the payoffs of going 'within' and the light that we hide in our shadows. Drawing on her years of psychological and therapeutic expertise, Mary Hoang will teach you how the tools of modern psychology, combined with age-old wisdom, provide you with the alchemy to turn darkness into gold; how to traverse, hopscotch, and shimmy with the web of your secrets, stories, and skeletons - to render purpose, meaning, and a life that resonates for you.

Book Description
Twenty-five centuries ago, a dying tribal elder drinks from a spring in a cavern in the heart of a mountain in Western Africa. The spring glows with a soft golden light. As the elder drinks, the water of the spring transforms the very essence of his being, and the mysteries which separate humanity from the divine are unlocked and bridged. He becomes the Firstborn of an ancient tradition hidden among the people and legends of the West African savanna. In the wooded foothills of present-day Switzerland, three very old men- ancient men of the ancient tradition-prepare to confront the dark fulfillment of a prophecy foretold by the Firstborn. These three possess mental and physical abilities which seem limitless-abilities enabling them to perform miraculous works once thought to be the exclusive domain of the gods of human belief throughout the ages. The dark one, the fulfillment of the ancient prophecy, is equally empowered- the unexpected product of medical science overreaching its intended result. However, this one does not wish to remain hidden. Through the miraculous signs and wonders which he can perform, he desires to draw thousands to himself as an object of boundless, cultish worship. He longs to be their dark messiah, and his cult of fear and death has already started to grow. The three ancient Africans have been waiting centuries for this dark one to appear-the fulfillment of the ancient prophecy-and only they stand in his way. The grains of truth embodied in all mythology will find reality in this confrontation pitting supernatural good against supernatural evil. The confrontation was prophesized, the outcome was not.

When Darkness Falls, the third book in The Obsidian Trilogy from Mercedes Lackey and James Mallory Despite a great working of Wild Magic and High Magic that struck at the heart of the Demon Queen's evil plots, Knight-Mage Kellen and his Elven allies are still seen as enemies by the human Mage Council. The Elves and their allies must find a way to shatter the Demons' hold on the human Mages, for without their High Magic, the forces of Light will be destroyed by the forces of Darkness. The Commander of the Armies of Light decides to turn an Elven mine into a refuge for those driven from their homes by the war. Kellen is put in command of the force of engineers and warriors who will fortify the mine and does not learn until it is nearly too late that the caverns are full of Shadowed Elves. Vestakia, the half-human, half-Demon healer, finds that she has begun to be able to read the mind of her Demon father, Crown Prince Zyperis. The Demon Queen, Savilla, is preparing a great sacrifice that will summon He Who Is back to the world and make her the ultimate ruler forever. When Wild Mage Idalia learns of Savilla's plans, she knows there is only one way to prevent the coming of He Who Is. A very different sort of sacrifice must be made.
