Book Reviews of Nature Spirits & Elemental Beings

Book Review: A Pretentious and Poorly Written Book
Summary: 1 Stars

"Once, while flying from London to Belfast, I watched some sylphs who accompanied the plane, and in my opinion it was they who made it possible for the plane to move through space at all."

I was trained in engineering and I can well imagine the look of astonishment on the face of my old professor of aeronautical engineering if I had told him that aircraft were kept aloft by legions of little magickal beings!

Undoubtedly some of my irritation was due to frustration because so much of the text was difficult to understand. For example, consider the following from chapter 7:

"I understood that the elementals who are associated with animals try to educate the animals in the coordination of their emotionally polarised consciousness of individuality with impulses from the group soul."

This is an example of what might be called "occulti-babble." I can almost imagine the author composing such a sentence by throwing darts at the pages of a new-age dictionary. It is an example of the kind of pretentious, nearly meaningless prose that any good copy editor would "blue pencil" out of a first draft. The editorial staff at Findhorn Press should be ashamed of themselves.

In summary I am sad to say that I wasted time and money on this book. I would not recommend it to anyone under any circumstances.
