A highly recommended book

This book is an awesome introduction to the subject. Automatic writing is the art of "contacting other intelligences through the use of a pen and paper while in an altered state of consciousness." This book answers many commonly asked questions about this divinatory art, while offering many different techniques to make it work for you. McCoy explains the power of the planets, planetary hours, and colours in the zodiac in her chapter on automatic writing and astrology. In the next chapter, one of the most important in the book, the author explains proper methods of breathing, meditation,and the chakras. The next section deals with actually doing automatic writing. McCoy describes many different methods of attempting this art, and offers tips for the event that you don't succeed. Finally, she offers some basic interpretations of some common symbols used in automatic writing. A glossary rounds out the book. All in all, this is a great introduction to a subject often referred to but rarely described. If you are interested in this easy yet accurate form of divination and communication, be sure to get this book as a starting point.
