The Witch's Shield: Protection Magick & Psychic Self-Defense

Rating:
Summary: BRILLIANT and necessary for everyone's occultic library.
Review: Christopher Penczak is both a good friend of mine and an extremely influential figure in my life. I do not give this book 5 stars because I know him personally, but because this book is worthy of the highest rating possible. The information included is absolutely wonderful. Very well-researched, well-written and easy to understand; all you have to do is be open to accepting the teachings. Some of the skills herein are more advanced, while some take on more of a basic-level, either making the reader say "Why didn't I think of that before?!" or jump-starting them on long-awaited self-protection practices (like me!).. I would recommend this book along with his "Temple" series. If you like Christopher's work, you would also like Kala Trobe and Dianne Sylvian to name a couple. As an Empath, this book has provided me with necessary practice procedures AND there is a FREE CD included! Chris' lovely voice guides the practices, which are extremely effective & wise. Thank you, Christopher, for another amazing publication. And it is such an honour to be included in the "Acknowledgements" section. Thanks for all the inspiration. You are truly amazing.

Summary: I never knew it was so important
Review: I am a witch, but until this book, I never really looked at the art of psychic self-defense. This book opened me up to a whole new world. It's fascinating and the techniques are so helpful, I wonder now how I managed to get along all these years without having this knowledge.

Mr. Penczak is a great teacher, and one of the few who writes with real honesty and simplicity. I never had questions; everything was explained in detail, and the bibliography can be used to further your knowledge on the subject.

The included CD is of excellent quality, the exercises, brilliant. I use them almost every day and I see such a difference in my life. It amazes me.

Mr. Penczak is truly a gifted person. I also highly recommend his Temple series.
