Working with Angels, Fairies, and Nature Spirits,
By Laura Clarson (Portland, Oregon) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Working with Angels, Fairies and Nature Spirits (Paperback)
This book is a must-read for anyone interested in connecting with the perfect blueprint of any activity, place, or idea. The style is practical, engaging, and anything but airy-fairy! The author teaches how to relate to these unseen beings as helpers in all aspects of your everyday life. Full of paradigm-shifting ideas.

I highly reccommend this book! It is down to earth, connected to spirit, and rings true. It is truly one of the best books about the subject that I have read. Try it for yourself, and do try the practical work it suggests-- it is a terrific aid to everyday life.

What a GREAT BOOK!,
By Kathy Dannel Vitcak "Me Being Me!" (Far northern MN United States) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Working with Angels, Fairies and Nature Spirits (Paperback)
I am so glad I discovered William Bloom's writing. This book has zoomed to the top of my favorites list. Down-to-earth, sensible, yet profoundly spiritual, I have read this book over and over and find something new every single time. If you are interested in the world of angels, faeries, devas and all other sort of spirits, I URGE, no I BEG you to buy this book!

A useful handbook for those interested in working with devas and the like,
By
This review is from: Working with Angels, Fairies & Nature Spirits (Paperback)
William Bloom here introduces us to the reality of the presence of angels and devas, and explains how they can be contacted.
As far ss I remember, angels and devas are similar but not identical. I think devas are a form of angels, or the opposite. But Bloom uses the term "angels", devas" and "spirits" interchangeably. One of the negative features of this book is in my opinion that its energy is somewhat diffuse and while reading it I felt frustrated, since the very nature of the subject - these ethereal beings -, together with the energy and the style of writing of the author, was so "airy-fairy" that I felt it hard to get to the nitty-gritty of things, and was left with the feeling that the book lacked some concrete facts. (Tthough I'm a Pisces and thus at home with spirits and angels, I have a Capricorn ascendant, which requires specificity.) The author teaches us that there's an angel or deva for everything imaginable, and that these can be contacted. Actually I'd recently learnt all this from another book - "Co-creative science" by Machaelle Small Wright- But Bloom brings the matter to another level, explaining that even the various parts of the body, each of the chakras and even each atom in the body, contain tiny devas. Again, I must say it bothers me that Bloom doesn't distinguish between angels and devas, or even between them and nature spirits. I had understood from Wright's books that devas and nature spirits represent two different levels and functions within "the nature consciousness". According to her "system" (defined by Nature itself), the devic level creates "order, organization and life vitality", while the nature spirit level "infuses the devic order, organization and life vitality and adds to this the dynamic of function and working balance". The devic level "creates -- the blueprints for form, while the nature spirit level implements those blueprints." (These quotes stem from Wright's book "MAP".) Bloom recounts his own personal background and how he first encountered and came to work with these spirits. There are chapers on tuning into the spirits, "Sensing a Deva", Working more closely with Spirits","The healing dimension" together with "Working with Angels that help humanity". We learn about working with the devas of, for example, one's house or business, just as Wright describes in her book "Soil-less gardens". There exists also a Deva of Computers (though not described by Bloom), and here I would like to recount a personal experience with this Deva. I am no computer expert, and I have for perhaps years had a specific problem affecting certain of my files. Whenever I had accessed a file and wanted to come out of it, whether or not I had changed the file and tried to save the new input, I encountered severe difficulties in getting out of the file again, no matter whether I pressed "yes" or "no" to the question, or whatever, being asked interminably whether I wanted to save the file in this or that way, and being warned about possible lost material.It was like there was no solution to the problem. Then one day, several weeks ago, I simply entertained in my head the notion of contacting the Deva of Computers to engage its help in solving the problem. The problem then IMMEDIATELY disappeared and I haven't had it since. Note that I didn't actually ask this deva for help - there was no time for that. This seemed like a sort of miracle. since the problem had plagued me for so long.I can only conclude that the Deva of Computers read my thought/felt my wish and went in and fixed the problem without further ado. There also exists a household Deva in your home, which you can ask for help with various matters. I have begun to do so with success. I further learnt that there exist negative "pathological" elementals in diseased parts of the body, and these can be contacted, transformed and removed. The author also discusses how to tackle other spirits in need of healing, and how to call in an Angel of Death for help with persons on the brink of death, but needing help to die in a comfortable manner. Those who might be interested in working with these spirits should get hold of this book, which can be used as a guidebook for frequent reference. I would highly recommend the book for such persons.

Good for beginners...,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Working with Angels, Fairies & Nature Spirits (Paperback)
This book covers the basics and is a great book for beginners, but if you are looking for something with a lot of meat and new and in depth information, it may not be the book for you. If youare already into this sort of subject matter, this will seem elementary and very basic 101 stuff. It is good, but very basic. Some of the things written in this book also seem to miss the point. But, I will let you decide. Personally, I felt a little let down by this book as it just didn't give very much deeper information.
