Value-based organizations, also known as value-aligned or value-driven organizations, are those that prioritize and uphold a set of core values in their operations and decision-making processes. These values guide the organization's culture, behavior, and strategy, and are integral to the overall success and sustainability of the business. In a value-based organization, the values are not just treated as empty words or mere statements on a wall; they are deeply embedded in the organization's DNA and reflected in every aspect of how the organization operates. This includes the recruitment process, training and development, performance evaluation, and even the way the organization interacts with its stakeholders. One of the key benefits of being a value-based organization is the ability to attract and retain top talent. People are naturally drawn to organizations that share their own values, and when employees feel a strong alignment between their personal values and the organization's values, they are more likely to feel engaged, motivated, and committed to their work.

Rituals To Sprinkle A Little Magic Into Your Eclipse Experience

There are dozens of different eclipse rituals someone can perform, such as taking a ritual bath, but astrologer Sarolta DeFaltay says the most important aspect of any given ritual is that it's personal to the one performing it. Clive Mason/Getty Images hide caption

There are dozens of different eclipse rituals someone can perform, such as taking a ritual bath, but astrologer Sarolta DeFaltay says the most important aspect of any given ritual is that it's personal to the one performing it.

During the full moon in my small border town in Arizona, my mom and I would pack into her car, drive up towards the mountains, and hike to a boulder she called Full Moon Rock. We'd set out jars and create moon water, drink wine, eat snacks and watch the moon cast an evening shadow over our quiet two-person picnic.

My mom and I were following centuries of tradition by devoting time and energy towards capturing the powers of the full moon. This week, I'll be practicing rituals focused on the solar eclipse, along with astrologer Sarolta DeFaltay and author Jaya Saxena.

Eclipse water

My mom says there a chance an eclipse can grant powers, wisdom, and positive energy. The purpose of eclipse water is to bottle up all that energy and be able to use it for months after the event has passed.

What you'll need:

1. A clear container with a lid. I typically use a mason jar.
2. Water. I use tap, but feel free to use filtered water if you prefer.

1. Fill up your clear container with water and close it tight.
2. Set your mason jar out as soon as the eclipse begins.
3. While your water is collecting energy, set your intention. It could be a more productive time at work, or a more creative outlook, or luck with love.
4. Put your water away once the eclipse is complete.

What you can do with it:

• Use it to water your plants when they're looking down
• Put some in your drinking water when you need power, luck, or help for the day
• Use it to bake when you're making something extra special
• Put it in your coffee maker for an extra boost of energy
• Mix it with warm water and Epsom salt for a foot bath to remember
• Put some in with your alcoholic drinks to reduce hangovers
• Add some to your animal's water bowl when they're feeling sick or lonely

But if eclipse water isn't your cup of tea, astrologer Sarolta DeFaltay has a different take.

Meditation ritual

"The time between the lunar and solar eclipse is a portal," says DeFaltay, who has studied astrology all her life. "People use this energy as a symbol for what they want to change in their life."

DeFaltay says that the eclipse represents a culmination of energy, and Leo energy is about leadership, creativity, and becoming the most empowered leader in your arena. For this eclipse, she recommends that people focus on what they want to release — like bad habits and negative thinking — in order to focus their energy.

There are dozens of different rituals someone can perform, such as taking a ritual bath, but DeFaltay says the most important aspect of any given ritual is that it's personal to the one performing it.

"During the eclipse, people will sit in meditation or light a candle or write about what they want to manifest and what they're looking to release," DeFaltay says. She says you should set your intention, think about what you want to create, and "send it out into the universe."

There are different specific rituals you can follow, but for the most part, DeFaltay recommends just utilizing the eclipse to set an intention and work towards goal clarity.

Jaya Saxena, co-author of the Basic Witches: How To Summon Success, Banish Drama, And Raise Hell With Your Coven, agrees. But instead of meditation and candles, she uses crystals.

Crystal charging

While she isn't part of the Wiccan or Pagan religions, Saxena says the history and culture of witchcraft really resonated with her and her co-writer, Jess Zimmerman. More than actively practicing witchcraft, they were interested in a tradition that prides itself upon being led by unruly women.

The book is about tapping into that line of unruly women, figuring out what you want, and practicing a bit of self care — "but not in the 'I'm just going to do face masks' kind of way."

While writing the book, Saxena started adopting traditions on her own, including crystal charging, which she intends to practice during the eclipse.

"People consider eclipses time of just great energy," she says. "Even if you're a totally rational person and you know exactly what's happening in terms of how the planets are moving, it's still really unsettling to see the sky turn black in the middle of the day."

Saxena will be charging her crystals during the eclipse. She says that crystals are often used to focus someone's thoughts and energy on a particular outcome, idea or goal. You can charge them by holding them and thinking of that exact idea during periods of intense sunlight or moonlight, she adds. For Saxena, the crystals absorb that energy and are a constant physical reminder.

"I take [my crystals] out to my balcony, I hold them and think of something I want them to have," Saxena says. "So you put those thoughts and wishes on the crystal, you put it outside during the eclipse and the idea is that it will hold that energy."

Saxena likes crystals because she likes the way they look and the idea that each crystal has a specific property. She is unconvinced that crystals have supernatural power, but likes the idea that you can use a crystal as a sort of talisman to associate with something you want in life, and focusing that energy during a ritual might make it more cemented for people.

"You have a physical reminder of what you want," Saxena says. "I have like six."

For her, the eclipse is more than an opportunity to energize crystals.

"You don't get to see something like this often in your life," Saxena says. "It makes me think a lot about [Carl] Sagan and the pale blue dot. We're so small and subject to so many things around us."

This is my attempt for an overall guide for the game that focused on the most difficult content which is the Eclipse mode. Within this guide, I explain the game stats, mechanics, items, enhancing, amalgamation, farming, general builds and specialized builds.

In order to unlock Eclipse mode up to level 100(and above), you will need to beat Story mode first.

Here are the stats from the game, as per the game manual. However, from testing, I don't think all of these are correct, and there are various soft and hard caps to the stats.

Character Stats

As this increases, your movement speed, critical hit chances, and horse riding ability will improve.
Your Sub-Weapon cooldown period will shorten as well.

Item Skills
Attack Up- increases base attack.
Defense Up - increases base defense.
Technique Up - increases base technique.
Vitality- Increase Vitality.
Luck Up - Makes it easier to get better war spoils.
Death Blow Power - Increases Death Blow power.

Resurgence - Frenzy Gauge refills gradually.

Warhorse Skills (unique)

Centaur - Powers-ups actions while on horseback

The tier system in terms in item rarity is as follows:-
Tier 1 Grey, Cyan, Brown
Tier 2 Silver, Red, Gold
Tier 3 Red, Gold

Please keep in mind the colours below that correspond to the enhancing material, as if you put all red skilled items, upgrading will be considerably faster and more efficient.

Tier 1 Base Stats Increases capped at 999 - Grey, Cyan, Brown
Attack Up(Red) Level 99 provides +80 Attack
Defense Up (Green) Level 99 provides +80 Defense
Technique Up (Brown)Level 99 provides +80 Technique

Tier 3 Secondary Stats Increases caped at 99 - Red, Gold

Tier 3 Secondary Stats Increases uncapped - Red, Gold
Resurgence(Blue)

All items have base stats and reach their maximum value at +9, broadly speaking the +9 means its been modified 9 times however, you can in fact modify an item as much as you want. Do not focus on improving the base stats of items through enchantment this is a waste of materials.

How to max out an item quickly
Go to Amalgamate, pick your base item, pick four skills you want, depending on what you are trying to max out, you may want to use the item sort option. Firstly add the four base stats that you want onto your item, by doing single amalgamations (if needed). Secondly max out each skill in turn, naturally the rarer items tend provide higher stats however certain items usually have a locked base stat. So you have now used up every single item you had, now go to enhance and use up all the materials.
Enhancement and Materials
There are three tiers of materials, however in terms of upgrading skills you can use all tiers for the correct corresponding colours, I would suggest always uses the bottom tier and uses those up first.

Warhorses cannot be upgraded only unlocked.

Item Skills my opinion
Attack Up - Solid Stat.
Defense Up - Solid Stat.
Technique Up - Solid Stat.
Luck Up - Pretty useful.
Death Blow Power - Essential.
Dexterity - Pointless.
Equine - Pointless.
Flair- Pointless.
Guard - I quite like this.
Range Up - Pretty good on most characters.
Evasion - Pointless.
Daunts Resistance - Good on level low characters or with low defense, pointless on Guts, Zodd, Wyald.
Force - At maximum stats I don't see much different.
Aerial - If you can get aerials this is great extra damage.
Potency - At maximum stats I don't see much different.
Dazzle - Simply doesn't work with some characters, ones with natural stuns.
Rapactiy - Good extra damage, stun then death blow.
Stun - Great, you can stun lock an enemy.
Slow Burn - Adds maximum of 5 seconds of Frenzy.
Death Blow Inertia - Essential .
Frenzy Offense - Essential .
Frenzy Inertia - Essential .
Regeneration - Generally quite useful, this is mainly for difficulty bosses especially where you are being throw around.
Resurgence - Generally quite useful, this is mainly for difficulty bosses especially where you are being throw around.

Warhorse Skills (unique)
Equine Resurgence - Most useful stat on a horse I have found
Centaur- Pointless.

Efficiency Vs Perfection
If you are only interested in beating Eclipse mode level 100 with all characters, then the way to go is using three "The Hawk of Light Idol" . This is because this item can be used on all characters at all levels and provide balanced stats of +100 Attack/Defense/Technique.

Money
The only real use of money is leveling characters.

The problem for me, I really enjoy eclipse mode however the more Efficienct or Perfect your build the easier it becomes.

Steam user "Nerhak" general build - Efficienct for most characters.

Regeneration
Resurgence
Slow Burn
Frenzy Offense

Regeneration
Resurgence
Frenzy Inertia
Death Blow Inertia

Regeneration
Resurgence
Death Blow Power
Force

With this build you passively gain frenzy and death blow, plus Slow Burn and you can keep in frenzy mode for a good amount of time.

My Farming Build

Regeneration
Resurgence
Death Blow Power
Luck Up

Regeneration OR Dazzle + Rapacity + Stun OR Aerial
ResurgenceOR Dazzle + Rapacity + Stun OR Aerial
Frenzy Inertia
Frenzy Offense

Regeneration OR Dazzle + Rapacity + Stun OR Aerial
Resurgence OR Dazzle + Rapacity + Stun OR Aerial
Slow Burn
Death Blow Inertia

At present I really like Dazzle as it stuns, Rapacity increase the damage to stun enemies. Stun increases the time stunned, I find my death blow stuns whatever survived then whatever damage I then go is increased again by Racapity. It is possible to constantly stun lock enemies, this can be great when your character is a low. Aerial can also be good, as knocking the enemy is quite easy unless its a giant boss. At the highest difficulties anything to improve your damage is great.

In my opinion all the characters are pretty good at farming, however I mostly enjoyed Zodd (beast form) & Wyald (normal) .

Equipment
Just get all healing items, perhaps defense increase if you think you could be one-shotted.

Warhorses
For farming I would use Palamino unlocked by Serpico Layer 10 which has 99 luck.

Cheap Trick
If you think you are going to lose save the game. I always save at Femto. Sometimes the game bugs and you get all your equipment back so more heals.

Builds for new characters
If you wanted to make a build or follow my builds. You won't unlocked their best accessory until the higher levels of eclipse, so use Hawk Idol as place holders.

Progress 10% Outfit Guts Helmed Mercenary
Progress 20% Warhorse Cuder Light
Progress 30% Character Wyald
Progress 40% Warhorse Midland Light
Progress 50% Outfit Guts Helmed Member of the Hawks
Progress 60% Warhorse Heavy
Progress 70% Outfit Zodd Band of the Hawk Reborn
Progress 80%Outfit Griffith The Band of the Hawk Reborn
Progress 90% Warhorse The Hawk of Light
Progress 100% Outfit Griffith The Wings of Darkness

Dashing/ Animation cancelling
Firstly, main chain combos leave the player open for attack. So, after finishing a combo dash, I often find dashing backwards towards the camera as a good option.
You can always use dash to cancel an animation, lets say you was starting your combo then a boss is setting up their special move, dash like mad!.
You can also use dashes to shorten the distance between you and the enemy.
You can also hold dash to sprint, it will take a second or two before you start sprinting.
Be warned if you cancel an animation too soon, you will not gain the effect of your action
So some animations are unskippable.

Animations and cooldowns
Death Blow Gauge, Frenzy Gauge and Sub-Weapon cooldown all continue during character animations. To gain the maximum benefit from this fact you will need the regeneration & resurgence skills on your equipment.
To start a combo or combat I often use the sub-weapon which stuns, as I am use my sub-weapon my frenzy gauge is going up. When in frenzy mode and using a death blow the sub-weapon cooldown is active. When using the sub-weapon the death blow gauge is active. See Zod character build for a video.

Animation and Equipped Items
From my testing you can infact use item during many animations such as death blow's. It would be advised to use healing items during Frenzy mode(whilst you can not be hurt).

Walls & Stun Lock
Walls or the outside of the map can be used to great effect. Its very much like getting your opponents on the rope, with their back against any surface you can use any move to attack, ideally something that attacks multiple times in quick succession it doesn’t need to be powerful. In order to quickly gain your frenzy or death blow guage.
Wyald with 100 Stun is one of the best characters at stun locking.
Roar, then rolling attack, then Death Blow and rolling attack and repeat.
Here is a video showing both wall attack and stun locking and how effect it can be.

Precision Guard
Time “Block” with an incoming attack to stagger the enemy. Guard will not work against powerful attacks.
Characters like Judeau will get knocked about easy and its sometimes cannot simply counter attack, so instead using precision guard is more effective. This can if used properly be used on Femto as it stops his combo from the first hit.

Understanding Character attacks
Looking at the image below, which is Casca attacks. The little purple symbol mean attack that breaks and enemies guard, learning this are essential for bosses and generals. The red effect around the attack means attacks that have a chance to Obliterate during Frenzy mode, so spam these during frenzy mode for even more death blow gauge.

Spaming buttons
Whilst spamming normal, charge attack and sub-weapons you can do this whislt holding down B (Frenzy/Death Blow).

Warhorses
A quick refresher of the stats.

Below you will find the essential Secrets of the Dark – Eclipse Mountain walkthrough. Whether you follow this guide as a step-by-step roadmap or merely use it as a point of reference, this walkthrough will provide plenty of useful tips and tricks to help you unravel the mystery and save Peter.

The following walkthrough is based on the Platinum Edition of the game; some details may vary from the standard version. It is not necessary for you to complete all of the tasks listed below, however, do understand that certain actions must be completed before you can advance to the next level.

People are naturally drawn to organizations that share their own values, and when employees feel a strong alignment between their personal values and the organization's values, they are more likely to feel engaged, motivated, and committed to their work. Another important advantage of value-based organizations is their ability to differentiate themselves in a crowded market. In an era where competition is fierce and products and services often seem similar, having a set of core values that resonate with customers can be a powerful differentiator.

  • Chapter 3: Peter Imprisoned
  • Chapter 4: Collecting the Temple Lock Plates
  • Chapter 5: The Lizard Temple
  • Chapter 6: The Bull Temple
  • Chapter 7: The Tiger Temple
  

  By consistently demonstrating these values in their products, services, and customer interactions, value-based organizations can build trust, loyalty, and long-term relationships with customers. Furthermore, value-based organizations tend to have stronger internal cohesion and unity. When everyone is operating from a common set of values, there is greater clarity and alignment in decision-making processes and a higher likelihood of achieving shared goals. This can lead to increased collaboration, teamwork, and overall organizational effectiveness. However, becoming and maintaining a value-based organization is not without its challenges. It requires leadership commitment, ongoing communication, and continuous reinforcement of the values. It also requires making difficult decisions and taking action, even when it may seem contradictory to short-term business gains. Value-based organizations can bring about positive change not only within the organization but also in society as a whole. By prioritizing values such as social responsibility, sustainability, and diversity and inclusion, these organizations can have a positive impact on their employees, customers, communities, and the environment. In conclusion, value-based organizations place a high importance on their core values and strive to operate in alignment with them. By doing so, they can attract top talent, differentiate themselves in the market, foster internal unity, and create positive change in society. These organizations are often seen as more authentic, credible, and trustworthy, which can lead to long-term success..

  Reviews for "The History and Origins of Blue Magic Oroginals: Ancient Traditions and Modern Applications"

  - Jane - 2 stars - I didn't enjoy "Vlue Magic Orogonals" at all. The plot was confusing and hard to follow, with little explanation given for the magical elements in the story. The characters were also pretty one-dimensional, lacking depth and development. Overall, the book left me feeling unsatisfied and disappointed.

  - Mark - 1 star - "Vlue Magic Orogonals" is honestly the worst book I've read in a long time. The writing style is clunky and awkward, making it difficult to stay engaged in the story. The pacing was off, with slow and uneventful parts dragging on for far too long. I couldn't connect with any of the characters, as they lacked relatability and motivation. I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone.

  - Anna - 3 stars - While "Vlue Magic Orogonals" had some interesting ideas, the execution fell flat for me. The world-building felt rushed and incomplete, leaving me with more questions than answers. The dialogue also felt forced and unnatural, making it difficult to connect with the characters. I found myself losing interest halfway through and had to push myself to finish it. It wasn't terrible, but I wouldn't read it again.
