5.0 out of 5 stars magical and inspiring
Several friends had recommended this book to me and told me it had changed their lives. I have always believed there was some truth about the many stories one hears and reads constantly about angels, but I was unprepared for the literary feast on these celestial beings this book provided.

1.0 out of 5 stars Unconvinced
I'm sorry, but I have to dispute the glowing review written here in which the text's "academic" integrity is touted alongside her "first-hand experiences" of angels. The author presents in this book a definitive hierarchy of angels as if they are the expert and simply on their word we MUST accept. I do believe in angels, and this text may be an...

This review is from: Return of the Angels (Paperback)
Several friends had recommended this book to me and told me it had changed their lives. I have always believed there was some truth about the many stories one hears and reads constantly about angels, but I was unprepared for the literary feast on these celestial beings this book provided. I agree wholeheartedly with Amazon's review that this is indeed a most magical and inspiring volume. I particularly enjoyed the author's stories about angel encounters, the magic rituals,but my favorite is War in Heaven by the Archangel Megadriel. This is a tour de force of the angelic battles and shows the depth of the author's biblical scholarship and her "literary acumen" to transform her writing style and adapt it to the way an angel would probably speak.Megadriel's predictions are equally stunning. I, for one, would love to read more about Megadriel and I hope to see the Book of Megadriel soon in print.

5.0 out of 5 stars loved this book, May 15, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Return of the Angels (Paperback)
I loved this book. It is one of the most thorough books on angels I have read, and I have read a few. It gives a wealth of details on the angelic hierarchies. I particularly enjoyed reading about the way the angels interact with each other. The Book of Megadriel (second and third parts) are icing on the cake, and the angel dictionary is a blessing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Return of the Angels, May 17, 2003
This review is from: Return of the Angels (Paperback)
Migene Gonzalez-Wippler is a psychologist and anthropologist with an impressive list of credentials, including fifteen books. Her latest endeavor, Return of the Angels, is a complete reference on celestial beings.

A Christian kabbalist and noted religious researcher, Gonzalez-Wippler says that there is an angel behind every idea, every intention, and every action, be they positive or negative. Everything, even things we normally think of inanimate, has an angel.

Humans have individual guardian angels, and Gonzalez-Wippler explains how people can contact their angel, learn its name, and seek its guidance. Angels have their own language, and she describes how to write a letter to an angel using their language. She also provides the unique signature of major angels, along with their color, flower, and crystal. Rituals for invoking angels are also included.

Gonzalez-Wippler describes angels as being mighty warriors battling the forces of evil, a battle they dont always win. She details the hierarchy of angels, and the duties of each. She describes the seven heavens and how the angels protect them. She also discusses Paradise, the Garden of Eden, and the role of Adam and Eve.

More than fifty lush illustrations enhance the written information.

One long section is devoted to the Book of Megadriel, a retelling by Gonzalez-Wippler of the Creation and the War in Heaven, in the voice of Megadriel. Megadriel finishes his stories with prophesies and steps we can take to protect our planet from cataclysmic disasters.

The last section of the book is a listing of more than 900 angel biographies and heavenly places.

Return of the Angels guides you through the wealth of information contained in classic texts such as the Bible, the Apocrypha, and the Kabbalah. It illuminates the wonderful history of these inhabitants of Heaven who choose to play a role in mortals lives. Its an essential reference for anyone curious about the role of angels in their life.

The author presents in this book a definitive hierarchy of angels as if they are the expert and simply on their word we MUST accept. I do believe in angels, and this text may be an interesting read "around" the subject and from one person's subjective viewpoint. But unfortunately it did not convince me.
