Ted Andrews was an internationally recognized author, storyteller, teacher, and mystic. A leader in the human potential, metaphysical, and psychic fields, he wrote over 36 books which have been translated into more than two dozen foreign languages. He was featured on many national and local TV and radio programs every year. He won more Visionary Awards than any other author.
Ted was a worldwide acclaimed speaker and teacher. He presented sold-out seminars to thousands of people throughout the US and Canada every year, and his appearances were just as popular and in demand in the United Kingdom, Europe and parts of Asia. In May 2002 he was specially invited to speak to the UNSRC at the United Nations in New York for his writings and work with animals.
This award-winning and best-selling author was involved in the serious study of the esoteric and occult for more than 40 years, and he brought to the field an extensive formal and informal education. He served the public school system for ten years as a teacher and counselor, 7 of which were spent working with disadvantaged students, creating a special needs reading program for which he received both local and state recognition.
Called a true Renaissance man, Ted was trained in music, playing the piano since the age of 12. He composed, performed and produced the music for ten audiocassettes. He could even scratch out a tune or two on the violin/fiddle. He was a longtime student of sacred dance, ballet and Kung Fu. Ted was also schooled in a variety of related holistic healing modalities, including music therapy, herbology, hypnotherapy, acupressure and other alternative techniques. A clairvoyant since childhood, he was also a certified spiritualist medium for nearly 30 years.
Probably best known for his work with animals, Ted held state and federal permits to work with birds of prey. He performed wildlife rescue and worked in wildlife rehabilitation and education. He conducted animal education and storytelling programs with his animals in school classrooms throughout the year, giving freely of his own time and expense to help young people discover the wonder of animals and nature. In his spare time, he enjoyed hanging out with his menagerie of animals, training and playing with his horses and ballroom dancing.
It has good information in it, but the book is unfortunately bias in regards to some info. It is bias towards the practice of the right hand path, and it is littered with typos, but if you can look past those things it is a nice collection of protective magickal practices.
I have to say, I am a fan of Ted Andrews. His books are always very informative and well constructed. This book is no exception. He shares a good deal of information, and gives the reader many different avenues of study. Much of this information was rather basic, but the collection of varied information is excellent.
I do not agree with all of the information provided here, but that is not to say that it is not worth considering.
I have to say that, while this was a good book, I wasn't as impressed with it as I've been with other of Ted Andrews' works. At times, it seemed a little cold and clinical, and at others, like he was reaching just a little far for the answer. However, it does have a wealth of good, usable information.
A must have for anyone who deals with the alternative spiritual community. It provides great instruction for protection when working with the spirit world, but also offers sounds guidance for anyone who communicates with the spiritual realm. A great resource!
