Summary

Is it possible to gain spiritual enlightenment even in difficult or threatening situations? What is the nature of evil and the role of seemingly bad things in the universe? In this thorough and thoughtful protection magick handbook, you are urged to take responsibility for your own actions, ask what you might learn from any situation, and hold compassion for those you may view as doing harm.

Popular Wiccan author and teacher Christopher Penczak takes a threefold approach to protection magick in this guide for Witches, Pagans, shamans, and psychics. First, find out how to protect yourself using personal energy, will, and intent. Next, discover how to connect with your guardian spirits, angels, and patron deities. Finally, learn how to use traditional spellcraft and ritual for protection.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Interesting but…

Being not a wiccan very obviously I didn’t find myself alined with much of the mentality this book is built upon, and that was totally fine.
The problem was the incredibly condescending tone towards the reader in the first part of the book, along with the constant explanations about super basic concepts, which were in my opinion entirely superfluous in a text addressed to somebody whose practice is supposed to be advanced enough to start studying how to defend themselves. It felt a lot like an attempt to add pages to the book.
However, I did find some interesting inputs here and there.
The narration was good but slow; I found the perfect playing speed to be 1.3x.

Mostly Good

The narration was very clear and easy to follow. I also like how Wicca and Witch craft are exploded as both separate and linked practices. The author also touches on the limited view of the main stream medias interpretation of Witch's and Wicca.

They give a brief history and this was corrupted by Christians looking to convertpeople. They also talk about the key differences between the two religions which was helpful. And there are other mentions of different religions groups as well.

However I found it confusing, how at one point the author says curses don't exist. But then later on has a whole chapter dedicated to curses.

I also really don't like how in that chapter he says that curses can manifest themselves with physical illness and then details magical solutions. However no where does she mention to check with your doctor etc. That seems quite dangerous and bad advice to me.

But as someone trying to understand Spirituality I found it a good, interesting and informative read.
