Tarot reader Moon debuts with an accessible overview of spiritual connection. Though some people are naturally equipped with fine-tuned psychic senses, Moon writes, “anyone can learn to talk to spirits,” and to that end offers tools to identify these forces, decipher their messages, and communicate with them. First, readers should probe their motivations for seeking spiritual connection by considering their existing belief systems and any prior interactions with the beyond. Moon offers meditations to commune with each of different spiritual beings, among them angels, saints, animal spirit—and for those seeking to make closer connection, paying attention to one’s senses (“Does the air and light in your space feel different?”) can help attune to spiritual presences intimately enough to initiate conversation. Instructions are thorough and practical, and take into account any number of scenarios. Spiritual readers will find this a surprisingly clear guide to the beyond. (Feb.)

"Not many books have spoken directly and clearly about the art of spirit communication in a digestible and informative way until now. Talking to Spirits ticks all the boxes for me. With each chapter, the very knowledgable Sterling Moon gently guides you. She is not only a formidable tarot reader, but also a very attuned medium and educator of the magical arts. I look forward to sharing this book as a resource with my clients and others seeking to expand their own psyches."—Marcella Kroll, creator of The Sacred Symbols Oracle, The Nature Nurture Oracle, The Dreamers Tarot, and The Roast Iconic Oracle

"A comprehensive manual on mediumship, Talking to Spirits is packed with a wealth of information for conversing with the dead. Even the smallest details are covered, starting with basic tenets of spirit communication before advancing into the murky world beyond the veil. There are several metaphysical safety tips and troubleshooting methods included for encounters with unsavory entities like disincarnate spirits and demons. Her personal experiences as a psychic medium have made her highly knowlegable and her research is impeccable. Plus, it's written in such a genial, conversational tone, the reader will feel like Ms. Moon is their own personal tour guide to the other side."—Pleasant Gehman, author of Rock 'n' Roll Witch
