5.0 out of 5 stars this book works, November 5, 2003

By 

Erika Hahn (N Falmouth, MA United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Archangels and Ascended Masters: A Guide to Working and Healing with Divinities and Deities (Hardcover)

I bought this book and began working with it and immediately began having dreams and miracles manifest in my life. I can truly say this book is amazing and I am recommending it to everyone I can. It's very easy to read. You don't need to buy any special things to work with it. The invocations work.
The only thing I don't really like is her paragraph chapter explaining away the pantheon of gods and goddesses as just expressions of One God which in my mind is done purely to appease the Christian Right Wing from getting all up in arms
about her book. That may be her real opinion and that's fine, but I felt it was pandering to a vocal group in this country who are very intimidated by anything they don't agree with as a way
to inoculate them from seeing this book as a threat to
the established Christian One God belief which I do not ascribe.

Otherwise the actual book's descriptions of the various powerful beings is explained and de-mystified. She explains how all our needs, no matter how small, can be addressed with these powerful beings.
So far in two weeks I used the book to heal two major issues I had with two people in my life (within days and weeks). I received incredibly clarity through dreams and third party interventions out of the blue. Also I used the book to begin to manifest work I absolutely love and to create miracles daily.
Everyone needs this book on their shelf. I read the entire thing in a few hours and after noting nearly every page with a piece of paper I began to work with 10 to 20 invocations per night. I am absolutely astounded at how well this book works.

Buy this book. Use this book. You will not be sorry. I have never found anything that worked so well so fast except Florence Scovel Shinn's books including "The Game of Life and How to Play It".

5.0 out of 5 stars A Fabulous and Comprehensive Book!, May 14, 2003

By 

Jenny Cohen "Jenny Cohen" (La Jolla, CA USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Archangels and Ascended Masters: A Guide to Working and Healing with Divinities and Deities (Hardcover)

This book is a pure delight for anyone interested in receiving spiritual help and support from archangels and ascended masters. It has an easy-to-read format, which the reader can use as a reference tool again and again when seeking spiritual assistance. I have had wonderful experiences and results from working with the spiritual helpers listed in the book, and I'm very grateful to the author for researching and compiling the wealth of information contained in its' pages. I especially enjoy using the book as an oracle tool, by opening it up to a random page to see who is assisting me. I find the information on each spiritual helper specific and helpful to unbderstanding his or her role in helping the planet heal. This book deserves true accolades!

5.0 out of 5 stars My Favorite...., April 9, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Archangels and Ascended Masters: A Guide to Working and Healing with Divinities and Deities (Hardcover)

I have read most of Doreen's books - she is one of my absolute favorite authors. I just received this book in the mail yesterday, and I can definitely say it has become one of my most prized possessions. If you enjoy working with your Angels - this book is a must have. Although it is set up in dictionary / encyclopedia format, it in no way feels like you are reading an encyclopedia. The first part of the book goes through each Deity individually - listing name, origin, and biographical story about that specific person. Then it tells you what areas of life this deity works with, as well as an invocation to use. The second half of the book lists specific life problems in alphabetical order. Under each issue are all deities in the book that help with that specific issue. There is also a section of prayers that you can use to invoke several of the deities at once - for a specific issue. This book is comprehensive - and emits an amazingly loving feel. Just perfect!
