O.K., A psyhic that can talk to angels? Yes, I was skeptical at first too. But then I got the chance to get a reading by Gary Quinn. It was wild how much stuff he got right about me, little details of my life that he couldn't have possibly known beforehand, things about my family, what I did the weekend before and on and on!

How is his book going to help you? What he is trying to show us is how to pray. Or, at least that's how I look at it. And really, isn't prayer just positive thinking? I mean, if you were to sit down and pray for hours and hours that you got along with your spouse better, wouldn't that help, simply because now you had a reason to believe that getting along with your spouse was a possibility?

And it's not just all the ooey gooey emotional stuff either. I was in a kitchen supply store and I saw this really cool pyrex pie dish. I said (outloud to no one in particular) "boy, I'd really like this pie dish. It'd be so cool to pretend that I bake all the time or something." I didn't buy it. Why? Because truthfully, I never bake. But I still wanted it for some reason.

The next day at work I walked by the free pile (where people throw out stuff that they don't want anymore.) Guess what I saw as I was walking by? A brand new pryrex pie dish!!!

How did that happen? Gary teaches us that good things come to those who actively want good things. If you want something, by just asking for it and keeping your eyes open, it'll come to you. This goes for marital bliss, the perfect job that you were "meant to have", pyrex pie dishes, and anything else your heart desires!

Psychic Gary Quinn's "May the Angels Be with You" can be read on 2 levels, which I'll describe more fully later (1) the literal or factual and (2) the experiential. Broken hearted after a difficult unexpected breakup with my boyfriend, I picked up this book hoping to have a healing experience, and absolutely did! So I give the book 5 stars for the experiential component. However, having read metaphysical material for nearly 30 years, I had some issues with some of the material presented as fact, and give the book 3 stars for the factual component.

(1) The literal or factual level: Information presented in metaphysical books can be difficult to corroborate. One often has to rely on personal experience and other authors of metaphysical sources. Although I believe I've seen an angel myself, and have read several other books on angels, this book is the only place I've seen some of this material. Although Quinn tells us angels are messengers, which agrees with everything I've read about angels, he also says they have no opinions and no free-will. Given all the documented stories of angels, this doesn't make sense to me. To do all their good deeds, angels would need to possess some judgment and free-will, and not function as automatons.

Also, Quinn tells the reader he won't complicate the matter of angels by explaining about heavenly hierarchies, and then goes on to explain that there are 7 angels whom you should petition for help in this order: The Angel of 1. Vision, 2. Wisdom, 3. Purity, 4. Strength, 5. Love, 6. Peace, 7. Victory. This information is not contained in any other book I've read on angels, and all internet searches of this matter lead back to Gary Quinn! Quinn tells us he received this information from a wise spiritual teacher who told him he would understand the nature and the sequence of these angels if he meditates on this, allowing each angel to "speak" to him. Quinn did, and this was revealed. Although he reveals to the reader the nature of each angel, and provides anecdotes about clients who were helped by each of these angels, he refuses to disclose why the sequence should be in the order given. Instead, Quinn teases the reader, asking questions like, "Wouldn't it make sense to have the Angel of Love first?" He doesn't answer these questions and tells the reader to meditate on it. I found Quinn's coyness on this matter annoying, as I did his periodic reminders that it's perfectly okay to seek material wealth for it's own sake.

Although I had some questions about the existence and sequence of these particular angels, there was wisdom in each section of the book devoted to them. For example, Carrie attracted her soulmate by becoming a loving person who healed a long-standing rift with her brother and then radiated happiness, love and fun with everyone she encountered: friends, colleagues and even her dry-cleaner.

2. Quinn says that one doesn't need to see or fully believe in angels to receive their help: Just act "as if" angels are real and take a leap of faith in seeking their guidance. In seeking my healing experience, I didn't bother petitioning specific angels in order, nor did I use the 4-page meditation provided in chapter 10. Instead, I observed the pattern of Quinn's readings to his clients and decided to give myself one! Admittedly I was skeptical. Each client gets a reading from Quinn and like magic seems to attract love, fabulous career changes, improved health, and inner peace. I'm reminded of the chain emails that promise all this stuff if you simply forward the email to 20 people. None-the-less, I relaxed myself the way Quinn helps his clients relax, got into a semi-meditative state, asked for heavenly help, and posed a question to my angels: "If you're supposedly helping me, why did I suffer this breakup with G? I listened for the answer in my mind, which was, "we are always with you. We removed you from a bad situation..." Beyond the answer, I actually felt a sense of peace and healing in my heart that I didn't previously have, which has stayed with me several days so far. I wasn't instantly healed of a broken heart, but I felt better and am much further along in my healing process. So while I still have no idea whether the bulk of Quinn's material is factually true, the healing I achieved using this book was worth the read.

This book is short and to the point. It tells you how to connect to angels to get exactly what you want. That's about it. It's very simple to do. Quite surprisingly so. I thought it was a tremendous amount of fun and wonderful to the imagination. I was a bit raised eyebrow about angels, too, but it doesn't matter what you think, as it turns out. It will work anyway, the author contends.

I met with Gary Quinn in Los Angeles before he embarked on his recent book tour. Not knowing him, I wasn't sure what to expect.I kept very quiet during my reading, just to see what he could see without my input. He was so accurate and truly amazing. In one short hour, and now through his book, I have gotten clarity on what it is I truly want, and how to ask the universe for it. My first audition since meeting with Gary was a huge success, and I have a wonderful role in a new musical. I know it is just the beginning of the career that I have been working my whole life for. Gary Quinn has a gift and the ability to share it. He is incredible!

For those that have alot of confusion and require something alittle simple for talking to angels, or guides then this is the book for you. Using the affirmations in it one will immediatly feel the divine pressence around them.

This book is one of the best I have ever read on Angels and how they manifest in one's life and how you can work with them to achieve your heart's desires. The information is concise, but important information is repeated enough to help it sink in.
The information on angels is non-technical and easily understandable by most anyone - sceptic or not. I thoroughly enjoyed it and plan on passing it on to my daughters and recommending it to my friends. It might also wind up in someone's stocking for Christmas.

This is a simplistic little book offering little in historic perspective or experiential exercises.

The author, a psychic from childhood, comes to terms with his gifts and redirects his life after a trip to France. After a series of disappointments, he is gifted with an angelic experience in Notre Dame.He advises readers to invoke a number of angels in a sequence to help with their issues and to attract the things,material and otherwise, they desire. Eschewing the usual angelic hierarchies and historically significant angels-other than Michael who he says is his guardian angel-he introduces angels of Vision, Wisdom, Strength, Love, Peace and Victory. He intersperses descriptions of their characteristics with anecdotes from his clients. The book ends with a sample meditation.

If you are looking for a formal approach to angels, this is not it. It is both simple and simplistic, with little depth. The sample meditation is not particuarly original and other than his suggestion that the reader connect with the angels by meditating, there are no exercises. Readers who are interested in angels would be better served by any of the many other books on the market. Those interested in a spiritual approach to manifestation might want to consider anything by Catherine Ponder, the Abraham series (Esther and Jerry Hicks) or Excuse Me Your Life is Waiting by Lynn Grabbhorn.

Several years ago I learned of the book "May the Angels Be With You" by Gary Quinn. It looked intriguing and I attempted to order it only to learn that it was no longer available from that source. I went on to other things and other books.

A few weeks ago I came across mention of the book again and was delighted when I was able to order it via Amazon. As is so often the case with me, it is exactly the book I needed at this time. I have never doubted that there are angels around me at all times, having had experiences that reenforce this belief.
This book has concise, easy to follow information about how to contact and utilize angelic guidance, wisdom and power and shortly after finishing it I was able to see physical signs that indeed the angels are at work in my life.

Excellent book for those that want to change their lives.

Gary Quinn with sincerity and generosity shares the key to finding meaning and fulfillment in our lives via the help of angels - specifically the angels of vision, wisdom, purity, strength, love, peace and victory. His message is that with open hearts and minds we can all achieve our dreams: we just need to trust in ourselves and our angel helpers, which should all be asked for help because there is an interconnection between their different roles and how they can help us. Although I would have liked a bit more on this interconnectedness to help me understand it better, I enjoyed reading this book immensely and have gained a lot from it.
