Modern life is full of minor but acute dilemmas: we get stuck at a gathering with someone unusually boring and wonder how to move on without causing offence; in the course of introducing one friend to another, we realise that we have forgotten one of the party’s names; we run into an ex while on an early date with a new partner; we spill red wine across a host’s sofa... Such dilemmas might – at one level – seem desperately insignificant. But they actually belong to some of the largest and most serious themes in social existence: how can you pursue our own agenda for happiness while at the same time honouring the sensitivities and wishes of others; how can you convey goodwill with sincerity; how can you be kind without being supine or sentimental?It is often confusing to know how to act around others and navigate social situations.This book features twenty case-studies on common social dilemmas and our possible responses to them, contributing to a new and original philosophy of graceful conduct.

The knowledge of when to plant and when to reap, the ability to predict the life-giving dance of wind and bee, enabled our forefathers and foremothers to nurture their crops and gardens, feed their kinfolk and create healing remedies for their sick, as well as bringing them closer to the mystical and magical energies that permeate the world around us. You too can reclaim and share in this ancient knowledge and power as you step onto the sunlit, verdant path of the green witch.

Today, Japan is a key player on the world stage, a technological powerhouse, and an icon of non-aggressive international policy. Amid its hi-tech cities, ancient shrines call the faithful to venerate heavenly gods and the spirits of the land.
