Kabbalah Made Easy
Kabbalah Made Easy is a down-to-earth, no-red-strings-attached look at the Judaic mystical system that has been made famous by the Kabbalah Center. The book explains why Kabbalah can seem so complex and breaks the system down into simple, understandable chunks. It examines the different systems that are in operation today including the Lurianic tradition, the Golden Dawn, magical, alchemical and Christian Kabblah as well as the re-emerging Toledano Tradition, which is taking Kabbalah back to its roots while making it accessible to the modern world. The book explains the basics of the Kabbalistic Tree of Life diagram as well as the four worlds of Jacob?s Ladder. It includes Kabbalistic lore on angels, astrology and gematria, as well as exercises and meditations that are simple but profound.

About the author
Maggy Whitehouse
42 books13 followersRev. Maggy Whitehouse teaches Kabbalah, Bible Metaphysics, Soul Wisdom, Abundant Living and HeartWork: Spiritual Marketing in workshops across the UK, USA and Europe. She is the author of 16 published books including ‘Total Kabbalah, ’ ‘From Credit Crunch to Pure Prosperity’ and the best-selling 'Miracle Man' (O-Books), a novel about a modern-day messiah who is a judge on the US X Factor. Imagine a Simon Cowell figure as Christ!
Her other fiction and non-fiction books include practical and easy-to-understand guides to Kabbalah, the Spiritual Laws of Prosperity and the life and times of women in Biblical times.
Maggy trained as a journalist and has worked in print media, radio and television including the BBC World Service. She was the UK's second female breakfast DJ on local radio and an assistant producer on the fabled Pebble Mill at One.
She wrote her first book, China By Rail, in 1987 after spending six summers travelling around China - and met her first husband while filming two ITV documentaries in China a year later. Henry Barley died a year after their wedding in 1990 and it was the hospital chaplain who told Maggy that, as an atheist, Henry could not go to heaven, who inspired her to start investigating alternatives to her previous 'armchair Christianity.'
This search was intensified after she came out the winner in a brief encounter with an eight-foot barracuda off the Barrier Reef in Australia...
Maggy is a qualified teacher of healing in two disciplines and studied Kabbalah with Z'ev ben Shimon Halevi for sixteen years. She has written three Kabbalistic novels, ‘The Book of Deborah,’ ‘ Into the Kingdom’ and ‘Leaves of the Tree’ about a fictional adopted sister of Jesus of Nazareth, and is an acknowledged expert both on the life and times of women in Biblical times and also in Kabbalistic interpretations of the New Testament.
She teaches seminars and workshops in the UK, USA and Europe and is just as happy speaking to Masons in Washington DC as to congregations of traditional and New Thought Churches and local holistic fairs. In 2011 she is teaching in the UK, USA, France, Czech Republic and Romania.
Maggy is consultant editor of the Midlands holistic magazine, The Tree of Life, and has taught workshops in Kabbalah, Prosperity Consciousness and Comparative Religion in the UK, USA, Europe, Russia and Israel since 1993. She was the founder-producer of the BBC's now-defunct spirituality website, which was morphed into the corporation's Religion & Ethics site.
In 2007 she was ordained into The Apostolic Church of the Risen Christ, an independent sacramental church. She is now visiting lecturer in Judaism and Kabbalah for the UK Interfaith Seminary.
Maggy lives in Birmingham, England, with her husband, Peter Dickinson.
Her other fiction and non-fiction books include practical and easy-to-understand guides to Kabbalah, the Spiritual Laws of Prosperity and the life and times of women in Biblical times.

Appreciated a succinct overview of Kabbalah and how it overlaps with astrology, new age, Chinese 5 elements, and the various angels.
Kabbalah is the tree of life and it’s meant to be looking at the back of God so you step into it. Took lots of notes and combined my own diagram of The Tree of Life with all the various drawing of it in the book.

This is a short and not very useful introduction to the topic. It seems to lack rigour and omits certain topics, possibly because the subject is meant to be secret and not for anyone to read.

I liked this book, cos it is explained in a less complicated way for the first time readers. But if you're interested in more, you need another book definitely.

Wanted to know something about Kabbalah and this book gave the right amount of introduction and inspiration. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone looking for an introduction too

another fabulous book. Read this in a day and it just makes sense. I will definitely be following this up with some more of the same subject.

I took away quite a lot from this book, but I found it to be quite rambling.
