Reader reviews for Animal Speak: The Spiritual and Magical Powers of Creatures Great and Small

Review summary

This seller has earned a 4.24 of 5 Stars rating from internet customers.
4.24 / 5 (11725 total reviews)

Readers widely treat the book as a go-to reference on animal symbolism and totemic practice, praising its accessible guidance, species dictionaries, and nature-connection exercises—especially for beginners. Detractors cite a bird-heavy focus, dry encyclopedia-style prose, shaky sourcing, and culturally appropriative treatment of Indigenous practices; some also note the ebook is riddled with transcription errors and that feather advice overlooks U.S. legal limits. Overall sentiment trends positive but qualified by these concerns.

Readers say this book is:

About the author

Ted Andrews (1952-2009) was an award-winning author and deeply respected teacher in the metaphysical and spiritual fields. Through his seminars, symposiums, workshops, and lectures, he was committed to making esoteric material comprehensible and practical for everyone.

Ted Andrews's many gifts included clairvoyancy, aura interpretation, past-life analysis, dreams interpretation, numerology, and Tarot. He wrote many books on these subjects, but is best known for his work with animal mysticism and for his bestselling Animal Speak: The Spiritual & Magical Powers of Creatures Great & Small. Certified in basic hypnosis and acupressure, Andrews was also involved in the study and use of herbs as an alternative path in health care, focusing strongly on esoteric forms of healing with sound, music, and voice. In addition to his interest in metaphysics, Ted was a trained pianist and often used the Celtic harp, bamboo flute, shaman rattles, Tibetan bells, Tibetan Singing Bowl, and quartz crystal bowls to create individual healing therapies and induce higher states of consciousness.

Ted Andrews is the author of The Healer's Manual; Animal-Speak, How to See & Read the Aura; Enchantment of the Faerie Realm; Crystal Balls & Crystal Bowls; How to Uncover Your Past Lives; How to Heal with Color; Sacred Sounds; Simplified Qabala Magic; and many other New Age titles. He passed away on October 24, 2009.
