Speaking with Angels: Life Lessons from the Angelic World [Paperback] Paxino, Iris and Barton, Matthew

This was the conclusion to a surprising message that psychologist Iris Paxino received from a bright, angelic entity who appeared to her unannounced, radiating a comforting, warmth-filled light. The angel’s words left her awestruck and deeply moved.

Paxino had long possessed the gift of knowing angels, but it was immediately clear to her that this special encounter marked a new beginning. She had no doubt that she did indeed wish to learn, and thus began a lively, intense dialogue that offered an abundance of insights into the work of angels. She discovered that, in addition to our guardian angel, each of us has a circle of twelve angels who accompany us throughout life and beyond death―that we have “double” and “shadow” angels, and that families, communities, and social groups have their own angels, as do specific landscapes. In a series of intimate and enlightening conversations, Paxino relates knowledge about these and many other types of spiritual beings.

“Angels suffer in sympathy with the earth and stand by us in the dark times of human existence. Despite everything they do not condemn, but love us with such devotion that we can scarcely comprehend it.”
