A Guide of Spirits
A Psychopomp’s Manual For Transitioning The Dead To The Afterlife
by Chris Allaun
A Guide of Spirits teaches us how to guide the dying to the land of the ancestors in a way that is balancing and healing. It teaches us how to help the person who is transitioning energetically and spiritually prepare for their final journey to the afterlife. Chris Allaun also shows the witch and healer how to escort earthbound spirits to the ancestral lands so they may find healing and rejuvenation.
This is a step-by-step ‘how to’ book to help every witch, healer, and shaman lend comfort and compassion to the dying.
REVIEW
5 out of 5
This was an excellent beginner’s guide to working with spirits, specifically those who need to move on. I appreciate how this broke things down – first explaining what a psychopomp does, and the types of teachers that guide one along the journey to becoming one. There are other sections, including ones that cover the basics of the spirit world, working with spirits, and how to protect yourself psychically. I found the meditation guides the most interesting, and plan to use some of them in the future. While this is an excellent introduction to everything, this is by no means a definitive guide to becoming a psychopomp, and I would suggest anyone serious about becoming one seek out more sources, either a fellow living being to learn from, or checking out some of the resources listed in the bibliography at the end. Overall, definitely recommend for the curious, or those just starting on their path.
