My five-star rating is based on the assumption that the information presented in this book is accurate. I don't know enough about magic to judge this for myself. Based on that assumption, in my opinion, this is a great reference for anyone who has experienced a string of misfortunes and is open-minded about the existence of hexes.

There's some guidance here about how to determine whether you've been hexed: what to look for, what tasks may be performed to test for hexes, and what circumstances indicate lack of a hex. There's also guidance about how to remove hexes and how to deal with psychics so you don't get cheated when it comes to determining whether you have been hexed and, if so, removing the hex. Should you determine that your misfortune is not the result of hex after all, there's also some guidance about how to deal with negative energy that may be causing your misfortune.

Overall, I found this to be a great reference for the lay-person. It uses understandable terms and presents logical steps for approaching the problem. Most of all, I appreciate the general focus of the book on, first, determining whether a hex exists before addressing it. A less cautious author might have jumped right into how to remove hexes, but the approach taken here seems more trustworthy.

Thanks to the publisher for the free review copy, provided through NetGalley.

Has your world fell apart suddenly and for no reason? Did you lost your job? Did a lover break-up with you out of the blue? Did the bank foreclose on your house? All of this in one day? Could this be a bout of bad luck? Or could it be much worse like perhaps a curse or a hex placed upon your person?

This book helps you understand what exactly is a hex and offers up some advice on how to cleanse yourself of these hexes. I found the book informative and a very interesting read. I learned to determine if I had been hexed or if it was nothing more than a run of bad luck. I also learned that not all psychics can be honest and may not only lead you to believe that they can only cleanse of these hexes by means of taking your money.

All in all, I really enjoyed this book and I would recommend it to anyone who believes themselves cursed. This will be the book to help you understand and cleanse yourself of all negativity.
