Book Description

Publication Date: September 8, 2002

They come to our aid when we least expect it, and they disappear as soon as their work is done. Invisible helpers are available to all of us. In fact, we all regularly receive messages from our guardian angels and spirit guides, but usually fail to recognize them. This book will help you to realize when this occurs. And when you carry out the exercises provided, you will be able to communicate freely with both your guardian angels and spirit guides.

Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

For as long as humans have had writing, and probably long before that people have shared tales of non-material beings, both spirits of this world and angels from the spiritual realms. Now, the truth is, you can find a little bit about one or the other in a wide variety of books. But these days I'm into the idea of making things easier. So now there's no reason to go looking through numerous books when you can find all of the information you need in Spirit Guides & Angel Guardians by Richard Webster.

If you have ever puzzled about the meanings of these terms, this book is for you. You will find the history of spirits and angels and how they are different. You'll also learn how one angel is different from another and that there are different types of spirit guides. And of course, you'll learn how to contact them.

Did you know that your attitudes and emotions can impede your communication with spirits and angels? It's true. And in this book you'll learn ways of improving your self-image and confidence while overcoming negative emotions such as greed and anger. Not only will you be better as a result, but you will be able to contact the non-physical entities more easily.

The book reveals the secrets of becoming a medium to contact spirits. You'll also learn how to work with another person and with a group. You'll even learn how to communicate with spirits through table tipping, an easy skill to learn and one which will surprise and shock people who are watching as well as those who are participating.

I just can't recommend this book more highly. It simply is the best starting point for learning about, and how to communicate and work with, spirits and angels. If you are interested in this subject, or want to find out what others are doing, this is the book you need.

5.0 out of 5 stars Spirit Guides & Guardian Angels: Contact Your Invisible, January 23, 2001

By 

Cassandra Barnes "Cassandra" (California) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Spirit Guides & Angel Guardians: Contact Your Invisible Helpers (Paperback)

"Basically, we are magnets who attract to ourselves whatever we think about," Richard Webster writes in his latest book, Spirit Guides & Guardian Angels: Contact Your Invisible Helpers. The good news is that we have helpers waiting to assist us in attracting abundance, radiance, and happiness to our lives. Webster says that "we all have a veritable army of special beings who are working all the time to help us achieve our goals and become successful." His book is a guide to recognizing and welcoming those special beings into our lives.

Webster traces the history of angels and spirit guides from antiquity forward, citing several references to angels in the Bible. He explains that, although angels can appear in human form if they want to, "they are not the souls of people who have died, unlike spirit guides, who are "people who have passed over into the next life."

The book is filled with specific tips on how to contact your invisible helpers. He also details what you should say and do once you've made contact. It is possible to contact "mischievous" spirits, and he recommends asking if the spirit you've contacted is from God before listening to it.

Webster emphasizes that learning to listen to and heed the small voice inside is of primary importance.

He provides guidelines for starting a "psychic circle," whereby a group of people interested in spiritual growth can practice contacting spirit guides.

Webster lectures and conducts workshops internationally in addition to writing magazine columns and more than 35 books. Readers searching for spiritual help will find Spirit Guides and Angel Guardians invaluable.

1.0 out of 5 stars Pop pscyhology meets carnival spiritualism. Beware!, October 27, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Spirit Guides & Angel Guardians: Contact Your Invisible Helpers (Paperback)

Having had an intense interest in angels and spirit guides, and having done considerable work with them over the past 5 years, I eagerly picked up Webster's book. Sad to say, I couldn't even finish his section on the angel guardians - it was so poorly written and lacking in substance. The subject is not one which lends itself to a "Cliff Notes" treatment - the reader would be better served by picking up Silver Raven Wolf's "Angels - Companions in Magic," from which Webster quotes in his own book! Ms. Raven Wolf is a true angelologist and her working knowledge of angels is second to none. Webster's treatment of the subject of spirit guides fares no better. He begins this section with an abidged history of the spiritualist movement in the 19th century. Webster focuses on the events surrounding the notorious Fox sisters of New York, but conveniently omits one very crucial fact about them: they recanted their so-called spirit guides and admitted to creating a hoax from the beginning! It is appalling that an author would so manipulate facts to bolster his theories and present them as gospel truth. Frankly, I found his treatment of seances, spirit contact, and the like to be outright dangerous - Webster apparently has been lucky and has never encountered truly malevolent spirits - READER BEWARE! This is not a parlor game - nor should contact with the spirit world be undertaken with such a capricious manner. I will credit Webster with some nice, easy relaxation techniques - but I would seriously discourage anyone from indulging in past life regressions unless they are firmly grounded in their metaphysical beliefs and have control of their psychic powers. Those wishing to seriously study the phenomena of spirit guides should consult "Spirit Guides" by Iris Belhayes - a much better and safer treatment of the subject. Webster may be an expert on feng shui and other occult subjects, but I could not, with good conscience, recommend this book to any one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Angelic Delight........, August 17, 2002

By 

"sobekqebet" (Austin, TX United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Spirit Guides & Angel Guardians: Contact Your Invisible Helpers (Paperback)

i enjoyed this book tremendously. i read it straight thru..
Webster explains a lot about Angels (especially the Archangels) and spirit guides. He goes into the differences between Angelic helpers and spirit guides and gives meditation exercises to help put you into contact with both. There is one particular ritual in the book for invoking all 4 Archangels that was absolutely wonderful! It was my first experience in working with the Archangels and i definately felt their presence. It was a pure blessing.

i have read many books on Angels and Spirit Guides and do highly reccommend this one, but if you are a beginner, it may be best to read another book first or familiarize yourself (research) the Archangels first.........

Definately a welcomed source to the Angel section of my library..
