Consorting With Spirits by Jason Miller || Book Review

[@churka5984]

Now I'm excited to buy this book! I often suffer from "impostor syndrome" when working with spirits because my experiences are subtle and require a lot of focus rather than getting vivid hallucinations and poltergeists.

[@xf5iw2rk6c]

thank fuck for no poltergeists

[@enoch327]

I think I have his book on protection. In terms of this book, I think consorting is the right term. I prefer convocation. Or simply cooperation. I never liked the concept of evocation where you put a spirit in a triangle, point a sword at them and command them to do things. Would you do that to a friend? Someone you are trying to befriend? There are spirits out there that want to work with you for no other reason but that it helps them on their evolution. We all have ancestor spirits who want to help and the angels. And like you mentioned nature spirits, if you are on the side of nature. I enjoyed your review and I look forward to more.

[@pomegranateandivy9833]

Ohh, I was really excited about this one. 😍 Totally forgot about it. I purchased several books based on your review. Never got disappointed. So I'm really excited for the video. 😁 Have a great day, Olivia!

[@TheWitchOfWonderlust]

So happy to hear I haven't let you down with my suggestions so far!

[@valarmorghulis9273]

Love the review! might get one soon. I would also recommend Spirit Allies: Meet Your Team from the Other Side by Christopher Penczak.. This introduced me to spirits and gave me a whole new understanding when I was just starting. I hope this book will help others as well.

[@allisondavis6543]

Started reading and went a few chapters then went WAY BACK TO BASICS. Like I needed to get mediation back to better place before moving on.

[@maplegrove7]

Been a fan of Miller's books since mid early 2000's!!! Got excited when I saw he was coming out with a book working with Spirit. Be purchasing it real soon. Lovely video as always. 💜

[@sacredserpentempressyamuna]

I love how articulate you are in expressing these concepts to those who may not fully understand yet. Looks like a wonderful book. Thank you. 👑🙏🏽👑

[@sewellparanormal6351]

I got this book a month back or so. Saw your video because the cover caught my eye. I totally agree with your thoughts on locals. Got into Magick because I needed to understand weird life experiences. Stayed for the weird life experiences. Lol At any rate, great video. Love and respect to you and yours.

[@MagischerPfad]

I think I pre-ordered the book in November, but it's not available anywhere here in Germany yet. Only as an ebook, but I want Jason's books physically. I love his other books and am so excited for this one and hope it will finally be available here soon.

[@HobbylessWolf]

Omg, yes! I love Jason but it was a struggle to get a copy here! There was always only one available or the price was fluctuate. Had to get mine from the UK and it still hasn't arrived here in Kölle T.T I hope yours arrives soon!

[@MagischerPfad]

@@HobbylessWolf I keep my fingers crossed that yours also arrives soon!

[@tarotinthesky]

This books sounds like a perfect book for me. Most of my practice has to do with working with spirits and I couldn't agree more when you said it's hard to talk about it. Thanks for the great content and, your hair is looking ✨gorgeous ✨!

[@CalvioCoding]

There are a lot of spirits where I live. It’s mainly children

[@kirasmith-ahles8156]

"Its not writtings on the wall" That one spirit a few months later: hold my beer.

[@hearthandbesom]

You really hit it when you said there’s so much to spirit work. To hear about and learn from other practitioners’ experiences helps expand one’s own knowledge. Have been looking forward to diving into this book. Thanks O💕

[@HobbylessWolf]

You introduced me to so many awesome books and authors, Zaddy Miller being the literal best so far! Thank for all the work you do! ❤️

[@TheWitchOfWonderlust]

ZADDY MILLER I'm HOLLERING

[@HobbylessWolf]

@@TheWitchOfWonderlust I regret NOTHING! 😂

[@vickythinks6749]

I live your book reviews they really help me guide my way to more accurate, genuine books to learn from🖤🖤

[@ryuharuentertainment]

This is fantastic! Thankyou for sharing this - I cant wait to see what insights he has. I personally work with spirits almost as much as I work with my Tulpas, and I treat them as virtually the same class of being. I think the respect and humility put into consorting with spirits is something a lot of people don't seem to grasp as a concept, and I usually just avoid explaining some of my "weirder" activities more transparently because they're just in another place, mentally. Hopefully we can see more things like Jason's Q&A, as well as his writings overall, to shed some of the stigma and confusion abound on the topic.

[@andreafryettstudio]

I've always naturally managed to somehow communicate/feel/see spirits. It's SCARY lol. I did a big effort to not believe in it anymore and that helped calm the experiences but I now feel like something is missing, like I'm cut off from some of myself. Entertaining the idea of trying again, just don't want surprises in my home like last time. Luckily they didn't do anything, but like, waking up to your mom screaming because of the man standing beside her bed almost every night, and the weird shadow that randomly walks along the hall is just...you know, creepy and very unexpected. Seeing your friends semi transparent face in the air the moment they hung themselves in real life cities away, and all the dreams about the person who passed in a fire that is understandably upset about it, are just not the most fun types of dreams to have. It's hard to ignore all those very real experiences, but it's also a pretty nice vacation deciding not to believe in it, because they happen much much less.

[@junkjournalsbysarah]

I have so enjoyed your reviews recommendations! I first heard you talk about Jason Miller and his courses and what you learned about Hekate. I then looked into his books and have loved them!! Thank you so much for your encouragement and guidance

[@seekerowl3260]

Definitely going to have to add this to the growing collection, I want to under spirit work more and be able to work with non-deity spirits as well.

[@arizjude5696]

Your aesthetics are always 😈💀🎃 the best

[@vickeydykstra2355]

Just received my copy of this book, it's an amazing book. Thank you for your review.

[@DrDino123]

I am adding that book to my booklist to get!

[@samanthacabell860]

Totally off topic and I apologize, but could you possibly do a review of Hex Twisting by Diana Rajchel?

[@bookgoddess11]

I really enjoy your books reviews. You have the best witchy book reviews I've watched. 🖤

[@SecretlyaWitchsLife]

Thank you for your review! I have it on my reading list and I’m looking forward to get it. I also like how he doesn’t force his own beliefs into trying his techniques. You can still do it with your own belief system and that is nice. Have a wonderful week.

[@TalesOfBalkanMagic]

I was wondering if he included the local spirits. I think I'm going to treat myself to this book, since I love Miller's work - so practical and on point. Thank you for the review!

[@CodyHill82]

Love Jason's books. His courses are great as well.

[@ClockworkFaery]

Looks like another book to add to my reading list! I just watched the Foolish Fish review on this too. (He does great book reviews etc..) 🖤❤️

[@shannonbritton5313]

Id love to see your fav spells for health and wellness. Ive been dealing with a chronic lung issue for a few years now and have been trying to learn and implement manifestation and practices 🖤🖤🖤✌️

[@thetruth4654]

I`m waiting on this book, i hope that it will help me get to learn how to work with the Goetic Spirits which is mainly my main interest in the occult and magick.

[@abbie7547]

Will definitely have to check this out! I really enjoyed Magickal Mediumship: Partnering with the Ancestors for Healing and Spiritual Development by Danielle Dionne.

[@RG-lo6tz]

I just ordered this book today!! I love your videos. They are very well put together. Have you ever considered doing a video on baneful protection? I would love to hear what you have to say or what insights you have or tips on how to go about using baneful protection. 🌒🌕🌘

[@janetcochran6679]

I have the kindle version lots of helpful information but easy to understand with his explanations!

[@Duckletplays]

Oml I love your book reviews so much! I have a extremely unrelated question, and its about me wondering what you use for your grimoire. Do you use a binder and if so do you hole punch everything??? I know that’s so random but I didn’t know if witches do that or it’s one consolidated book 😭

[@TheWitchOfWonderlust]

I do use a binder - and I do punch the 3 holes in everything! It's not the *prettiest* but I'm just happy to have all my important info and rituals in one place, and able to move things around.

[@Duckletplays]

@@TheWitchOfWonderlust It does seem insanely convenient, thanks! I was just wondering what different people did, but I think I’ll take that approach then!

[@lolabaron8695]

Does magick work, without working with spirits?

[@therobotvi]

Yes! You do not have to work with spirits or even believe in spirits to use magick. You can use your personal energy

[@randolphfriend8260]

❤️ thank you Olivia

[@jae3004]

Only thing that bothers me about this book is the lack of a bibliography.

[@venizmaja20]

Hi, Olivia! Would you mind reviewing books by the Gallery of Magick?

[@LunchboxFamily765]

Just ordered it 😀😀

[@marasmith3557]

Part way thru this book i love it ,Jason miller us my fav author I think I enjoy his writing style and find it easily remarkable to learn putinto practice thx for reviewing this n Book u make some great honest authentic points that I appreciate n I hope he writes more to add to it too many blessings Olivia

[@simonfernandes6809]

The content of the book is pure gold. The actual physical book itself is one of the cheapest, rubbish paperbacks I've seen for the esoteric field. This is a book you want to endure - this thing isn't going to do that.

[@templeofancestralspirit]

Loved the review and already bought the Kindle edition to add to my current reading list. I do have one unrelated question though. Where did you get your coat/sweater? I absolutely love it 💗

[@hannahsides4296]

Adding this one to my study list!

[@darenestaniszewski9697]

Awesome Olivia! 👍🕯☀️🌝⭐️

[@JesBewsey]

When you're talking about being able to sort of key into which spirit is which- which energy is interacting with you (& I'm sorry if this is a silly or too-rudimentary or already-covered-elsewhere-that-i-missed question), do you *feel* who they are? Like it took me a kind of embarrassingly long time to realize that not everyone feels other people- other alive human beings, I mean...well, and sometimes the dead but I wasn't sure if I was nuts with that or not & it wasn't a SUPER common experience...(like who ppl ARE, I mean: unique identifying energy that does not change- auras, I guess, from what I read way, way far into my life)- but with spirit work in this craft, is it common for practitioners to just feel the identity of the entity? I can't imagine doing this without that sense (I mean I'm betting there's a way I just can't imagine not feeling the essence or whatever of the people & things I'm interacting with). Does this book go into that at all? I guess the term would maybe be ? (It's like a separate sense that seems like, for me at least, it's wired through the limbic / emotional system at least partially- but it's like way, way more complex & specific than regular day-to-day emotions that we have words for & I can only describe it in like figurative language bc it's like every single creature & most things have their own specific way that they feel). I'm sorry if that's rambling & I hope this makes sense...as you can probably tell I'm kind of lost re: putting words to what so far has been a very solitary, subjective experience but I really want to understand it better & 1. I'm not sure where to start & 2. I feel like this would be a huge part of interacting with entities you can't easily sense with the standard human senses that everyone sorta agrees that we all have, you know? Like if I couldn't feel exactly who was hovering around me, I don't know how I would even know they were there.

[@matthewterry2291]

Is Consorting with spirits a book for a fairly new witch?

[@LorenzoDCara83]

Hi Olivia, I just love your channel, you have helped me realize a lot of things I've never thought of while being a practitioner. I have a question about Spirits, a few. Sometimes, I hear muffled voices like a conversation back and forth, and other times I think I'm hearing static, like when you don't turn off an old tv and you get a static sound. Is this normal? What does that mean, I am not afraid, just feel weird for asking. Thanks. Cara

[@Zenekeke]

great video as always

[@arizjude5696]

Do have any info on the hekate course by Jason and how to join it?

[@arizjude5696]

Any more information?

🛒 me and my book FOMO, just checking in to check out … always love the books you recommend

[@helenmilenski861]

Pre-ordered this and I am reading it as I can. This is a topic that I am expanding my work in, but I am doing so with as much discernment as possible. I know my ancestors strongly and I know Hecate when she speaks. I often times find that what I am looking for is something I have already found, but disregaurded it because that spirit was not what or the way I thought it 'should' be. Even local spirits, I have a real relationship with, but thought somehow it was supposed to be more grandious than it turns out to be. Jason's book is helping me place value in the relationships I already have with spirit and see them as greater allies than I gave them credit for in my practice.

[@alwayscuriousalwayslearnin]

I always find it entertaining when someone writes a book or does a video about say spirit of Demons or things like that when they really dont have experience with it maybe they have seen a ghost or maybe they brought home an object that has some residual energy on it that isnt agreeing with someone or something in the home and they think its a haunting. Iget it when we have something like this happen in our lie for the first time it can be frightening, I have lived with such things most of my life, decades, I sense, feel, hear, and in half-awake states see spirits and I have only been around a few Possible Demon type energy and believe me you know when you are but it is very rare. spirits need to be treated like you would treat a stranger or a friend there are so many different types and personalities some can be a little aggressive and put in their place. I am curious of this book and what is said. most things nowadays are all Woo woo or there so much religious ways put on them that it mostly gets lost in what is really happening. I did like it when you went to your friend Annies place and pretty much brought a gun to a mild argument or disagreement and dealt with it hehe but that is an example of when someone has never had experience ( not referring to you ) and is afraid so asks for help which is always the best thing to do as long as the helper is actually helpful like you were with Annie, to me just going by what Annie said I figured that it was mostly something attached to the piece of furniture that didn't like something like the way of living in the home so they watched and made things uncomfortable for everyone living in the home. but I am going way off the topic of the book hehe there is a person on here that has a 50minute interview with the writer of this book explaining the book but I don't want to post the link with out permission so I wont

[@kukumuniu5658]

"The 4 methods of interacting with spirits: prayer, conjuring, compelling, and evocation." Compelling?? Only an ignorant and idiot would attempt to enslave spirits, enslaving/compelling is a sign of great respect for spirits
