'The Turner' tells of her journey into the Canadian wilderness, where she was initiated by an Inuit shaman. Afterwards, she takes us back to the Mostviertel Ybbstal. There, she rediscovers the shamanic roots in the old customs and folk beliefs. She shares stories of charm necklaces and druid knives, of wart turning, and of the old times when people still practiced magic, cursed, hexed, and healed.
7. Ennsthaler Levend Water
Viktor Schauberger, the Upper Austrian forester, water builder, and inventor, astonished the entire professional world of his time with his wood floating systems and insights into the power of water. It’s no surprise that Adolf Hitler and the American intelligence services took an interest in him.
With new, never-before-published material from the Schauberger archive, Olaf Alexandersson revised and significantly expanded his work. He provides a detailed description of the functioning of Schauberger's inventions, his groundbreaking insights, and the key stages of his life. Schauberger's warnings about environmental destruction are more relevant than ever!.
8. Ennsthaler Dirty little secret - Die Akte Aluminium
We live in the age of aluminum. However, this shiny lightweight metal has a frightening dark side that is critically examined for the first time in this book. A hundred years ago, hardly anyone knew what to do with the most abundant metal in the Earth's crust. Today, aluminum is ubiquitous. Bioactive aluminum compounds are particularly popular in the cosmetics industry: in sunscreen, aluminum promotes even distribution. In deodorants, it reacts with skin cells, preventing them from sweating. Medications for heartburn often contain excessive amounts of aluminum. Two-thirds of all vaccines contain aluminum as an adjuvant. Many water treatment plants use aluminum compounds for clarification, delivering drinking water - with inevitable aluminum residues - to households. This stands in stark contrast to the careless use of aluminum in sensitive areas.
9. Ennsthaler Sibirien 1944 - 1948
The last days around Vitebsk turned into a tragedy for the soldiers of the 206th Infantry Division, many of whom fell, and the majority were taken into Russian captivity. My escape towards home failed, leading to captivity and deportation to Siberia. In this book, I recall the conditions of the camp, the work assignments of the prisoners, the daily struggle for survival, and the dream of a possible return home. I also reflect on how difficult it was for the victors, the poverty that prevailed among the population in Siberia, and how much they urged us for reconstruction. Many Russians sought compensation for the damages caused, and it was difficult for us behind the Ural Mountains to find signs of a possible return, which fortunately occurred in 1948. Sixty years after the end of the war, I found the courage, prompted by my children.
10. Ennsthaler Fräulein Vilma und ihr Josef
Detailed source research and precise scientific implementation: Eighteen letters from the front lines of World War II, along with a unique and extensive correspondence between Vilma and Josef from the immediate post-war period, serve as the starting point for personal life stories, embedded in social historical representations and interpretations. Themes of genealogy and biographical origins, a miniature of Steyr during the interwar period, and the depiction of the cosmos of Greater Vienna during the Nazi dictatorship are intertwined with reports on the material hardships of everyday life, the portrayal of a post-war romance, contemporary literary and musical worlds, questions of worldview and religion, character assessments of the father, and an entertaining narrative about the purchase of a radio. Written from a humanist perspective and in the spirit of antifascism, creatively designed with many original private photos, personal documents, and watercolors.
