Talking to Spirits: A Modern Medium’s Practical Advice for Spirit Communication

Sterling Moon. Llewellyn, $16.99 trade paper (216p) ISBN 978-0-73877-347-6

Tarot reader Moon debuts with an accessible overview of spiritual connection. Though some people are naturally equipped with fine-tuned psychic senses, Moon writes, “anyone can learn to talk to spirits,” and to that end offers tools to identify these forces, decipher their messages, and communicate with them. First, readers should probe their motivations for seeking spiritual connection by considering their existing belief systems and any prior interactions with the beyond. Moon offers meditations to commune with each of different spiritual beings, among them angels, saints, animal spirit—and for those seeking to make closer connection, paying attention to one’s senses (“Does the air and light in your space feel different?”) can help attune to spiritual presences intimately enough to initiate conversation. Instructions are thorough and practical, and take into account any number of scenarios. Spiritual readers will find this a surprisingly clear guide to the beyond. (Feb.)
