Glimpses into Heaven

by Leave a Comment

People often ask me what Heaven is like and what our loved ones in spirit are doing there. As a Spirit Medium, I have the unique ability to communicate with those on the Other Side and, in the process, they often provide me with glimpses of Heaven.

Our universe is much bigger and more diverse than most people on Earth can fathom. There are other worlds and dimensions which we travel to as souls for unique learning experiences. Our home base is Heaven, which is the starting point from which we were created, and it is the place we return to for rest and recuperate after our many experiences and adventures on Earth. There are other places in the universe where we can visit and experience lifetimes; however, I focus primarily on our experiences on Earth as that is something to which we can all relate and remember. Heaven is a place of healing, love, knowledge, and learning. It is a hive of activity with beings coming and going according to their soul plans and contracts, beings actively involved in the inner workings of Heaven, magnificent reunions with gala parties for the recently returned, lifetime reviews, and much more.

Arrival in Heaven

Upon arrival in Heaven, we are greeted by a welcoming angel or loved one in spirit who proceeds to help us become re-oriented to Heaven. Often, our guides are members of the delegation who help us to cross over into Heaven when our time on Earth is coming to an end. Our guide helps us to navigate our way through Heaven and to visit loved ones on Earth to see the events occurring since our passing. They also help us to send signs to our loved ones on Earth to let them know we are doing well and have made it to Heaven. Our guides are with us when we attend the memorial services and life celebrations in our honor on Earth and often stay with us, help us, and teach us until we are ready to visit our loved ones on Earth on our own. Older souls, who have experienced many reincarnations, are much faster at being able to communicate across dimensions because they have done this in the past. Younger souls, who have not had as many reincarnations, can take classes in Heaven to help them learn how to communicate via their spirits, send signs, appear in dreams, and manipulate energy on Earth to move objects, and more.

Creating Your World

Heaven truly is what we make of it. Resources are only limited by our minds and the levels we reached in our soul’s evolution. We can create homes using thought and they can be whatever we want them to be. For instance, you can have a quaint cottage by a lakeshore or a majestic castle with many rooms. Whatever you would like your personal slice of Heaven to be is what it is. Beautiful imagery of buildings and collective spaces, which are the collaborative efforts of many in spirit to create environments, have been shared with me through readings. This includes nightclubs from the 1940s where Frank Sinatra would sing and entertain, Victorian-era towns and cities, stunningly beautiful parks with elegant flowers and trees, ancient temples from Atlantis and Lemuria, modern and ancient sports complexes, and much, much more. Often, loved ones in spirit show me the homes they grew up in recreated in Heaven, as well as dream homes with glorious views of mountains, gleaming bodies of water, and rolling hills with amazingly green grass. The colors up there are gorgeous and much more intense than they are on Earth.

We also have the power to control our personal appearance in Heaven. I have frequently seen loved ones in spirit, including pets, as the younger versions of themselves enjoying their time in Heaven. We usually opt to look like we did on Earth because that is what we are used to; however, it is usually the younger versions of ourselves in our prime. It is my impression that the level of what you can do in Heaven and where you reside correlates with the level your soul has reached with its evolution. For example, a younger soul who has not had a lot of reincarnations and who committed crimes on Earth because they have not yet learned the way of love, do not have the same abilities and access to certain areas of Heaven. In addition, there are many spiritual hospitals for these souls, as well as institutions of learning to help them to better comprehend the true purpose of their existence. Older souls who have gained knowledge with each lifetime not only have greater expertise, but also greater access to more of the levels of Heaven. They are free to create what they wish and can travel to more locations in Heaven and beyond.

Activities in Heaven

In Heaven, time does not run on the same cycles as it does on Earth. I have not yet been provided with an equivalent measure, and this may be because one does not exist or that it is to remain a mystery from humankind for now. However, I do know we have plenty of time up there to explore a whole host of activities, while also watching over our loved ones on Earth. After a lifetime on Earth, we often need time to recover from the rough and tumble ride we encountered. When we cross over into Heaven, all our physical ailments automatically disappear because our souls are no longer housed in a physical body. Our minds and souls also receive healing. Those in need of deep healing have shown me in what I refer to as the Spiritual Hospital, which is much like a mental health hospital is on Earth but with angels in attendance to facilitate the healing process. There are inpatient programs and outpatient programs depending on the needs of the soul. As healing occurs, these souls are gradually integrated into existence in Heaven to fully enjoy the paradise of Heaven’s offerings. Those who have healed or are ready to fully enjoy their time in Heaven, often send me images of themselves reunited with all their loved ones in Heaven, relaxing and participating in their favorite pastimes, such as fishing, creating art, and spending time with people and pets who have crossed over before them.

Because of the love shared between souls and the connection that goes beyond death, loved ones in spirit often visit their friends and family here on Earth to see how they are doing. They are fully aware of events happening on Earth. They are allowed to help in certain ways with our lives through the sending of signs and messages; however, they cannot interfere with life lessons we need to experience or alter the soul contracts we agreed to prior to birth. Because of this, it may sometimes seem as if God, the Archangels, and loved ones in spirit are not helping us. They are helping us. It may be in ways we do not understand or anticipate because they have a higher understanding of what we need for the fulfillment of our soul contracts for this lifetime. Because our souls continue to exist and grow, Heaven offers opportunities to learn new skills and meet other souls, like we can on Earth. Images and information have been sent to me during readings of loved ones in spirit taking classes in music and art, as well as spirit-to-spirit communication and how to work with the energies on Earth and in Heaven. Many times, I have been shown friendships and relationships being formed, as well as family members in spirit who did not meet while on Earth getting to know one another. In Heaven, we can also volunteer for jobs. They are not like jobs on Earth. We choose what we would like to do, such as becoming a guardian angel to those we love on Earth, a muse who helps send ideas to those on Earth, a greeter at Heaven’s gates, or an assistant to the angels. Many souls enjoy being of service and Heaven offers many opportunities to bring to your spirit what you need most.

The Hall of Records

Within our magnificent home base of Heaven, there is a Hall of Records which contains information about everything that was, is, and will be for each of our souls. The files, which are referred to as the Akashic Records, contain our soul contracts for each lifetime, including the present one, as well as every detail of the lifetimes we have lived and are living, and information about future events for our souls. The future events are written in outline form and can be updated depending upon the actions we take in our current lifetimes. This is because of free will. There are events which are scheduled to occur in alignment with agreed-to soul contracts; however, the minute details may not be written yet due to constantly changing conditions here on Earth based on the decisions we make. When I am shown the Hall of Records, I see a large, white Parthenon-style building with a wide set of stairs leading up to a landing with six regal columns. Scattered throughout the image are people dressed in many different styles of clothing, as well as scholars and attendants in comfortable white- or cream-colored tunics and gowns. As a note, past life information can be accessed within the Hall of Records in an interactive manner, which allows visitors to delve into the past to retrieve information in a way that immerses them in the experiences. The Archangels, who are tasked with overseeing everything having to do with humankind and Earth, manage the Hall of Records and work with many orders of angels to help organize and facilitate events on Earth which coincide with soul plans and lessons for all on our planet. Guardian angels, some of whom are people who lived on Earth who volunteer to help their loved ones, are also given tasks and permission to send communications by the Archangels. For those who volunteer to be guardian angels to loved ones on Earth, they are given specific access to the Akashic Records for those they are watching over. They are allowed to communicate approved information through dreams, signs, and spirit-to-spirit communication – either directly or through someone who specializes in this unique system of communication, such as a spirit medium.

Epiphanies from Heaven and the Universal Mind

Heaven is an imagination hub, or conglomeration, where all ideas are created and sent through epiphanies to souls meant to bring them to fruition based on their soul contracts. The idea hatchery is often referred to as the Universal Mind. The ideas are disseminated at the appropriate time and place by God and the Archangels, as well as those who assist them. It is then the job of the Archangels to assign a muse to share the ideas with the beings destined to bring the ideas to fruition on Earth or in another world or dimension.  Specific orders of angels, as well as loved ones in spirit who have volunteered to serve as muses, are responsible for the actual transmission of the ideas to the matching soul. There is a significant amount of real-time organization which takes place to facilitate this process. Many events and circumstances need to be devised at the proper times to bring ideas to light with the proper resources for the recipient.  It is an incredible process which is also employed for the events and circumstances in our daily lives, in which we are placed in situations which encourage optimum opportunities for working through the lessons we agreed to in our soul contracts.

Why Do We Leave Heaven?

People often ask why we leave Heaven if it is so wonderful. We agree to temporarily leave Heaven to accelerate the growth of our souls. The lack of negativity in Heaven provides a certain kind of learning that is missing the great challenges that life on Earth or what other worlds may offer. We agree to a lifetime on Earth for strong and fast lessons, but then return to Heaven when our lessons have been completed. There are very important reasons why we need to be here and why we have the experiences we do. One of the most important is to discover our spiritual connection to all there is. Once we do return to Heaven, we have time to rest and enjoy activities we love while waiting for our loved ones on Earth to join us at their designated time. The love we share with one another keeps us connected across all dimensions because love is at the heart of our very existence. Once we are reunited with our closest soul groups, we decide where and when we would like our next adventure to begin.

So Much More

I hope you have enjoyed this glimpse of Heaven. There is so much more to it than we can perceive and what I can describe in this brief article. Each day, loved ones in spirit and the angels show me more and I hope to bring it to you to help you better understand not only why we are in existence, but also what exists beyond life on Earth.

With Love and Light,

Experiencing Paranormal Activity? It Could Be Your Loved Ones in Spirit

by Leave a Comment

Double doors opening with bright light shining through

There is much more to our world than what appears to be. Our loved ones who have crossed over into Heaven have amazing access to our world, which means they can not only communicate across dimensions, but also can make their presence known to us in ways that use all our senses. They do not mean to frighten you with their activity, but rather, they want to get your attention to let you know they are around and to share helpful information with you about your life or the lives of those you love. Anyone who has lost a loved one can experience paranormal activity. It does not mean you have a ghost in your home, but rather loved ones in spirit who are doing their best to let you know you are loved and supported. Knowing how they do this will help you to understand communications across dimensions and why it is happening.

There are many ways in which loved ones in spirit try to gain your attention. If you are ignoring their subtler signs, which can easily happen if you are not aware of the signs, they may increase their activities to the point in which you cannot ignore them. Usually, this is when people reach out to me to figure out what is going on. Here are some examples of how loved ones in spirit try to get your attention:

Seeing Signs from Spirit

  • Seeing them, a bar of light, or shadow out of the corner of your eye. Most of the time when you turn to look, the shape or image is no longer visible.
  • Repeatedly seeing numbers that remind you of a loved one in spirit, such as a house number, birthday, death date, anniversary, or favorite number.
  • Seeing repeated visual reminders of them in the form of images or words, such as frequent references to their favorite activities, jobs they worked, or favorite locations.
  • Visitations in your dreams.
  • The appearance or images of butterflies, ladybugs, cardinals, blue jays, dragonflies, hummingbirds, hawks, rainbows, coins, and more could be a sign that a loved one in spirit is near.
  • Moving objects, such as tilting pictures or artwork, knocking a picture or artwork over or off the wall, making a rocking chair rock on its own, or moving a small object like a pen.
  • Removing objects from your space and returning them. Often the objects are important to you or them, such as jewelry, photographs, keys, or watches.
  • Electronics acting up, including the digitizing of your television screen, the freezing or malfunctioning of phones and computers in a strange manner, lights blinking or blowing out, or car windows malfunctioning (going up and down on their own).
  • Seeing your loved one in spirit fully manifested in front of you like a ghost (rare but does occur). They do not do this often because it takes a tremendous amount of energy to do this and it can sometimes be disconcerting to the person seeing them.

Hearing Signs from Spirit

  • Hearing your name being called in their voice.
  • Hearing music that reminds you of them, especially if it is a song you would not normally hear or hearing it with perfect timing to coincide with your thinking of them.
  • Hearing music that plays in your head. As a note, they use this method to get direct messages to you. Look up the lyrics.
  • Hearing their name or nickname spoken by someone else.
  • Experiencing a radio or musical device acting up or turning on by itself with or without a power source.
  • Hearing people speaking when no one is physically in your presence. You may or may not be able to decipher the words.
  • Receiving thoughts that feel as though they are not your own and are heard in your own voice. They may come through as a word or phrase intended to help you. Loved ones in spirit will never send information telling you to hurt yourself or another.

Feeling Signs from Spirit

  • Feeling the presence of a loved one in spirit. There is a heightened awareness or feeling that your loved one in spirit is with you.
  • Feeling a touch, as though someone placed their hand on your shoulder or arm.
  • Feeling a wash of love from head to toe. This is when tingles start at the top of your head and travel throughout your body. This is one of the ways loved ones in spirit send you hugs from Heaven.
  • Mysterious pains or sensations associated with a loved one’s ailments or passing. Usually, this occurs with spirit mediums who are trained to decipher the difference between personal ailments and sensory communications from loved ones in spirit.

Smelling Signs from Spirit

  • Smelling a scent that reminds you of them or you attribute to them. It usually does not belong where you are and is very strong, such as a perfume or cologne, cigarette smoke, chocolate, mothballs, or a favorite food they cooked or baked. You may be the only one who smells it.

Tasting Signs from Spirit

  • Experiencing a strong craving or taste for food they made or liked, as well as tasting cigarette or cigar smoke.

There are numerous ways loved ones in spirit let you know they are around. None of them should be ominous or threatening in any way. Fears can be heightened when there is a lack of understanding about how the spirit world operates, which is why there is a lot of misinformation out there regarding this topic. Many books, movies, and television shows have notoriously depicted paranormal activity as demonic beings intent on harming you. This is due to misunderstanding how spirit communication works from the Other Side, as well as the purposeful heightening of the fear factor for attention-getting purposes in film and television shows. To this day, I have never encountered anything I considered demonic or a poltergeist. Even if something like that did exist, I give it no power. The majority of the time, it is your loved ones in spirit trying to help you with your life or letting you know they are around loving and supporting you. Loved ones in spirit will also send you repeated signs to provide guidance for your life. If you are unsure of what your loved ones in spirit are attempting to convey, you can always book a reading with a professional spirit medium to receive direct messages from your loved ones in spirit. As a side note, those who had a funny or mischievous side to their personality in life still have that and will delight in having a bit of fun with you regarding their signs and the movement of objects. Also, if you are unsure of who is sending the sign, ask using your thoughts “Who in spirit is sending this sign?” Whoever you think of first in spirit is who it is. 

When Paranormal Activity is More Pronounced or Disturbing

It is important to note that there are times when I and others have encountered heightened paranormal activity which can be disturbing if you do not know the source of the activity and why it is occurring in a jarring way. The sources of these disturbances tend to be a being in spirit who has not crossed over into Heaven, and they may cause stronger activity that come across as frightening, such as slamming doors or breaking objects. These souls, who have not crossed over into Heaven, are temporarily stuck between dimensions and are frustrated with their situation. They mean you no harm and are not upset with you. They are in your presence because you are open to the energies of souls in spirit, whether you are aware of that or not. They are desperate to get your attention in order to receive help in crossing over to the Other Side. There are many reasons why a soul does not cross over right away, such as not believing they belong in Heaven because of what they were taught on Earth or because they feel they have not completed tasks on Earth. What they need is compassion and assistance to cross over fully into Heaven. Whenever I come across souls in this situation, I help them by reopening the gateway and calling in the Archangels to help them transition from this world to the next. If you are experiencing disturbing paranormal activity, it is a good idea to check with a professional spirit medium to have them look into the activity to determine who it is and what needs to be done. Just telling these souls to leave will not work. If they could leave on their own, they would. It is also important to note that souls who are stuck between worlds are not necessarily tied to a particular location on Earth. Where they decide to hang out has to do with their connection with the people there or the location itself. Their presence is usually accompanied by a heavy or negative feeling due to their frustration and heavier energies of the Earth which have not been fully shed for the higher and lighter vibrational energies which accompany souls in Heaven. Again, these are not poltergeists or demons, but souls in a frustrating situation who need assistance crossing over to the Other Side.

It Is All About Love

In essence, when you are experiencing paranormal activity, it is most likely your own loved ones in spirit letting you know they are around. Their paranormal activities usually increase around important events, occasions, and holidays, as well as when you are going through challenging times. In addition, about a week or two before and a week or two after you see a spirit medium for a reading, they increase their activities because they are excited about being able to bring through direct messages and communications to you.

Our world is an amazing place that is so much more than what is perceived on the surface. The good news is, that it all revolves around the love that connects each and every one of us through the hearts of our spirits. The next time you experience unusual or paranormal activity ask, with your thoughts, who it is in spirit who is responsible for the activity. Whoever you think of first is who it is. Say hello through your thoughts and thank them for their presence. They love it when you recognize their signs and the love they send.

Namaste!

What is Psychic Amnesia and What You Can Do to Avoid It During a Spirit Medium Reading

by Leave a Comment

A spirit medium reading is a three-way system of communication in which a being in spirit communicates with a spirit medium. The spirit medium receives and then transmits the information to the recipient of the reading. The recipient then identifies and claims the loved one in spirit who is coming through and opens themselves up to the messages being shared. It is a cooperative effort which requires active participation from the being in spirit, the spirit medium, and the recipient of the reading. At times, the recipient of the reading may not readily recall the person or animal coming through, or they may not immediately recognize the memories or messages being shared. This phenomenon is often referred to as psychic amnesia. There are many reasons why this can happen, even when everyone involved is doing their best to ensure clear and concise communications.

Reasons Psychic Amnesia Occurs

  • Only wanting to hear from one person
    • This blocks out openness to others who may be trying to come through to help you with your life
  • Concentrating only on people who recently passed
  • Thinking of your own perspective of the person, not the perspective of the person coming through
  • Waiting for a code word, name, or specific message
    • No matter how much unique identifying information is brought through, some people will not believe it is one of their loved ones in spirit unless they hear a specific word, name, or message
  • In a group reading setting, some people do not want to be the center of attention
  • Denial based on fear
    • Some people do not want to revisit the pain of someone’s passing
    • People have mentioned they denied knowing the person coming through because they were fearful of the emotions that would be brought forth
    • Uncomfortable with spirit communication because they do not understand how it works
    • Do not want to hear from a particular person due to painful situations encountered in life
  • Fear of the unknown
  • Skepticism about spirit communication
    • People who have had negative experiences with people who were not authentic or genuine, or they may have heard stories from others about this, may not want to believe the information coming through
    • Strong religious beliefs or teachings which deny this type of communication exists or is a product of negative beings may be deeply ingrained in someone and they may not be receptive to the information being brought forth
  • Thinking only of blood relatives, not friends, neighbors, associates, or others
  • Being awestruck
    • This can happen at any time, but most often when someone is sitting for a reading for the first time – it is as if their thinking mind has stopped functioning and they cannot even remember details about their own lives, let alone loved ones who have passed
  • Not understanding how spirit communication works
    • Spirit communication is a complex process which involves the use of all the spirit medium’s senses – people who are not familiar with the way it works may sometimes think it is as simple as a fireside chat in which all information about a person’s life is easily shared
  • Impaired judgment due to inebriation from alcohol or drugs
  • Distraction
    • Thinking of other things and not living in the moment
    • Not paying attention to the information being shared
    • Having pets, small children, or other people in the room
  • Fatigue
    • If someone is very tired or exhausted, it may be challenging for them to recall information or to recognize it when it is coming through
  • Strong grief
    • Messages may be brought through, but the person may be so distraught that they have a hard time hearing and digesting the messages

Ways to Avoid Psychic Amnesia

  • Keep an open mind and heart
    • Enter a reading with no expectations or pre-conceived notions of how you who you would like to hear from, how they would come through, or what they would like to share with you as you never know who is going to come through for you, nor can you anticipate the message they will bring
    • Your loved ones in spirit know who you need to hear from and why – remember they view your life from an enlightened perspective
      • They often bring through information which may bring healing for your soul
    • Be open to the information coming through because your loved ones in spirit are doing their best to share information using a very intricate communication process which involves the transference of their messages and information using all the spirit medium’s senses
      • It is like pieces of a puzzle that need to be brought together to define who it is coming through and what they would like to share with you
    • Know that anyone who has passed can come through, including blood relatives, in-laws, ex-in-laws, friends, acquaintances, co-workers, relatives whom you never met but who know you from watching over you from Heaven (such as great grandparents), pets and more
  • Release your fears and trust in the bigger picture
    • Receiving communications from your loved ones in spirit is an amazing experience that originates from the most powerful energy in the universe – love
    • Be aware that fears are often an illusion which block us from achieving our dreams and living the lives we are meant to live
  • Prepare for your spirit medium reading
    • Familiarize yourself with the process
      • Do your research with reputable spirit mediums
      • I provide articles and brief videos to help people understand how spirit communication works
      • I also explain how spirits communicate with me prior to each reading I provide
    • Know that spirit communication is a very complex process which involves the full participation and cooperation of you, your loved ones in spirit, and the spirit medium
  • Record your reading and/or take notes
    • If you don’t remember right away, there is a good chance you will remember later or the information they shared will be revealed in the future
    • Sometimes information shared in a reading may be referring to a situation occurring in the future that you have no prior knowledge of
  • Be awake, alert, and sober as this is a special form of communication which requires your active participation
  • Allow time to grieve before contacting a spirit medium for a reading
    • In the first stages of grief, which includes feelings of anger and denial of the person’s passing, it is best to wait until your heart and spirit have begun to heal and accept the person’s or pet’s passing
  • Do not be too hard on yourself if you temporarily forget loved ones or memories
    • There may be a reason why you are not remembering information right away, such as those in spirit wanting you to speak with others about them after the reading

Relax and Enjoy the Experience of a Spirit Medium Reading

Most of all, it is important to make the most of your spirit medium reading by relaxing and allowing the process to naturally unfold. If you open yourself up to this incredible form of communication, the healing that comes from a spirit medium reading can change your life in amazing ways. Enjoy the communications coming through from your loved ones in spirit, as they are motivated by love, which is the greatest gift that can be transmitted from one being to another.

Not Seeing Signs from Loved Ones in Spirit? Here Are Reasons Why

by 2 Comments

Black Butterfly

When a loved one crosses over into Heaven, they often send signs to let their loved ones on earth know they are in existence in spirit and still connected with them, as well as to share their love and let them know they are doing well in Heaven. Often, these signs can be very strong soon after their crossing. This is because they are still vested in the people they love on earth and want to bring them assurance and comfort during their time of grief. The signs must be very strong during these times because grief tends to immerse our souls in sadness, effectively blocking awareness of that which exists outside of ourselves. Because they recently crossed over, loved ones in spirit usually have an experienced guide with them to help orchestrate the occurrence of these signs.

Signs from Heaven

Immediately after a loved one in spirit crosses, it may seem as though there are no signs at all, or the signs may be very strong and clear then seem to lessen or disappear altogether. There are many reasons why it may seem as though loved ones in spirit are not sending as many signs or any signs at all. First, let us explore the ways loved ones in spirit send signs and examples of some of the stronger ones which may occur soon after they cross over into Heaven. Soon after a loved one in spirit crosses over into Heaven, they are often eager to send a sign to their loved ones on earth letting them know they have crossed over into Heaven, as well as to send their love and comfort. Often, loved ones in spirit are accompanied by a guide to help them during their time of transition and these guides assist with the sending of signs. Because people in spirit no longer have a physical body with which to send communications, they use the universal soul-to-soul form of communication, also known as spirit communication or mediumship, which is a much richer method for transmitting information. This method can utilize all the senses to provide a deep and direct connection with those they are trying to communicate with. The options are limitless when it comes to the many ways loved ones in spirit can send signs. Here are some examples of strong signs sent soon after a loved one crosses over into Heaven:

  • Seeing a loved one in spirit fully manifested in energy form, much like the appearance of a ghost, in which you see them in a slightly transparent form of themselves (Note: This takes a tremendous amount of energy and, therefore, a rare occurrence.)
  • Seeing loved ones in spirit in dreams
  • Finding coins or feathers in unusual places
  • Seeing repeated visual signs which remind you of the loved one in spirit, such as their favorite places in the world, hobbies, jobs, their name, or their relationship to the recipient, as well as butterflies, ladybugs, dragonflies, hummingbirds, doves, and more
  • Smelling a strong scent in the air which is reminiscent of the loved one who passed, such as their perfume or cologne, cigar or cigarette smoke, or the scent of their home
  • Catching a quick glimpse out of the corner of your eye of a presence in the form of the loved one in spirit or as a dark shadow (Note: Dark shadows are often misidentified as ominous entities, when they are really loved ones in spirit who are partially manifesting.)
  • Feeling as though a loved one in spirit placed a hand on one’s shoulder or affectionately touching your face – this feeling can be accompanied by a tingling sensation on the shoulder or face
  • Feeling a presence with you that is comforting
  • Hearing the voice of a loved one in spirit saying your name or words of comfort
  • Songs playing on the radio about Heaven or that remind you of a loved one in spirit
  • Electronics acting up for no explainable reason (e.g., blinking lights, electronic screens freezing up or digitizing, children’s toys or music devices playing on their own, etc.)
  • And much more

Reasons Why Signs from Loved Ones in Spirit Seem to Lessen or Not Occur

Often, people on earth expect their loved ones in spirit to manifest like a ghost in front of them and be able to hold a long conversation with them with questions and answers. This may happen; however, it is very, very rare. The energy it takes to do this is tremendous and the loved ones in spirit may not know how to do this immediately after crossing over. Instead, signs are sent to get their messages through. What happens though when it seems these signs are lessening over time or seem to disappear? Again, there are many reasons why signs may seem to lessen or not be present at all. It is not because your loved ones no longer care for you. They do and they are around you whether you are aware of their presence or not. Here are some examples as to why it may be challenging to recognize signs or why they seem to have dissipated:

  • Strong grief can temporarily block the ability to recognize signs (Note: This is because deep grief turns the attention inwards and can be all encompassing at times. Experiencing grief after loss is a natural process in which we need to give ourselves time to process our feelings and emotions, as well as time to adjust to the major transitions and changes to our lives.)
  • Not knowing how loved ones in spirit send signs or communicate with loved ones on earth
  • Expecting the same sign every time
  • Loved ones in spirit give us space to heal our hearts (Note: If they constantly made their presence known, those of us on earth would have difficulty moving forward because their presence may potentially prevent us from adapting to not having them physically with us on earth. This is a major transition for both you and your loved one. Even though your souls remain connected, adjustments need to be made and acknowledged for healing to take place.)
  • Times when loved ones in spirit are not allowed to interfere with decisions we need to make. It is during these times that it will feel as though they are not with us.
  • We are very sad or focusing too much on the mundane issues of life, which eats up focus and closes us off to recognizing signs
  • Misconstruing signs as representations of negative entities
  • Missing or dismissing signs due to lack of knowledge, fear, sadness, skepticism, or disbelief
  • Not giving yourself time to heal and adjust to the major transitions which occur when a loved one crosses over into Heaven, which can lead to a desperate search for signs when loved ones in spirit are trying to give you time and space to heal
  • They are learning how to send signs to loved ones on earth and participating in activities in Heaven which temporarily suspend the sending of signs

Be Kind to Yourself and Know Your Loved Ones in Spirit Are There for You

As with any major transition in our lives, we need time to adjust to the changes. While we are processing grief on earth and living our lives, our loved ones in spirit are also adjusting to their existence in Heaven. You and your loved ones in spirit are connected through the hearts of your spirits. There is nothing that can break the bond of the love you share. Be kind to yourself by giving yourself time to grieve, learn about how loved ones in spirit communicate and send signs, and have patience with yourself and your loved ones in spirit. They are there for you and will send signs when the time is right for you.

Why Spirit Communication Uses All the Senses

by 2 Comments

Sun shining through the clouds over mountains

When loved ones communicate from the Other Side, they use all the senses to bring through identifying information about themselves, as well as messages for their loved ones here on Earth. Recently, a client asked me why they do that rather than sharing information through straightforward conversation using words alone. If they can transmit words and phrases, why don’t they just do that instead of using all the senses to transmit messages and information?

How Spirit Communication Works

As a spirit medium, I receive and share communications from the Other Side for clients interested in connecting with their deceased loved ones, as well as for myself and those I love. It is a complex form of communication using all the senses to transmit information across dimensions from one being to another. Images of deceased loved ones are sent to my mind’s eye, also referred to as the Third Eye, to provide a description of what they looked like in life. They also send images of activities they participated in while on Earth, places they lived, jobs they worked, hobbies, and more, to help with the identification process. Words, phrases, meaningful songs, and sound effects are used to enhance and add to the information coming through. In addition, physical indicators are provided to indicate how they passed, as well as if there was anything unusual about their physical condition that would be noteworthy in order to help identify them. I receive a good feel for their personality traits, as well as memories associated with specific tastes and scents. The information needs to be pieced together like an abstract puzzle in order to identify the loved ones coming through, as well as to interpret the messages they are sending. All this information is transmitted from their spirit to mine through the invisible network which connects all of us to one another.

When my client asked why loved ones in spirit communicate in such an elaborate way instead of just stating the information in a straightforward manner, it got me to thinking. Why don’t they do that? It would certainly be easier than piecing together the bits of information to identify them and bring through messages. To me, the way they communicated using all my senses was a given. I never questioned it. I accepted it without question as their preferred method of communication. When presented with this question, I asked my Heavenly Support Team for the answers.

 Receiving Answers

The most immediate answer I received was that spirit communication is part of the great mysteries. By that, I mean the great mysteries of our existence. For example, the reasons for our existence, why we are experiencing life on Earth, and whether Heaven exists. As human beings, we are on a spiritual journey on Earth to grow as souls. We experience a myriad of challenges and victories designed to help us to discover our strengths and weaknesses, to learn to love ourselves and others, and to help us discover our connection with the divine and what exists beyond life on Earth. Faith is a significant part of our lessons. Throughout our lives we face a multitude of situations designed to build or instill faith. The gift of free will enables us to decide for ourselves what we believe or disbelieve.

Providing a Blank Canvas for Learning

When we were born, the knowledge we had of Heaven was temporarily veiled from us. This is done to provide us with the maximum amount of opportunities to grow as souls, because if we came down here knowing everything, there would be nothing to strive toward. Part of our spiritual journey includes the quest to rediscover the hidden knowledge about the existence of worlds and beings beyond our earthly existence. Because life is a journey based on free will choices about whether to believe or disbelieve in something greater than us, we are given glimpses or hints of the extraordinary through miracles, near death experiences, dreams, visions, and spirit communications and signs, including uncanny circumstances that have no earthly explanation. These experiences are designed to inspire us to think, question our beliefs, reinforce our faith, or provide answers to questions about our lives.

Leaving Room for Questions

The phenomenon of spirit communication provides proof of our existence beyond life on Earth, but it also leaves room for questions. It is the universal language of the soul which transcends ordinary verbal communication in order to provide in-depth first-person perspectives from the deceased loved one. Unique identifying information, which would not be known to the spirit medium but known to the recipient of the reading or their loved ones, is shared to provide proof of the deceased loved one’s continued existence in spirit. It could be the description of a specific episode in the life of the recipient or the recipient’s relatives in which only they were present. The very richness of the communications using all the senses provides a fully immersive perspective from the sender, which allows for seeing, feeling, hearing, tasting, smelling, and knowing information about the past, present, and future. Language barriers do not exist, as any words or phrases brought through are automatically translated into a language the spirit medium best understands. This is true for deceased loved ones who spoke a different language, as well as animals who also have the ability to communicate spirit-to-spirit.

The incredible experience of communicating spirit-to-spirit goes beyond two-dimensional verbal communications to a fully immersive experience providing detailed sensory impressions of actual experiences of the deceased, as well as information and guidance about the future. The process itself is awe-inspiring and humbling, as it brings forth knowledge and proof of that which exists beyond life on Earth. In view of our purpose in life to journey onward as souls gathering knowledge and basing our spiritual beliefs upon our experiences, it makes sense that spirit communication is part of the great mysteries. It provides extraordinary insights and knowledge which inspires us to think and to determine for ourselves whether we are believers.

Signs and Messages to Loved Ones on Earth

When loved ones in spirit send signs or bring through messages directly to their loved ones on Earth, without the help of a trained spirit medium, they use all the senses as well. For example, they will place a scent in the air which reminds the receiver of the scent of a loved one in spirit, such as their specific cologne or perfume, cigarette smoke, flowers, or food baking or cooking. The scents piped into the air usually do not fit within the environment in which they are experienced. For example, one morning I smelled brownies baking in my kitchen, even though no one in the house was cooking or baking and had not for hours, and all the windows were closed, meaning the scent was not wafting in from a neighbor’s home. There were no scented candles lit or any other devices which would have piped the scent into the air. There was no earthly origin for that scent. The experience immediately brought to mind my father’s mother, who loved to bake and cook. It was her way of letting me know she was around. Because loved ones in spirit utilize all our senses to communicate, they have a vast treasure trove of methods for getting our attention in order to let us know of their existence beyond life on Earth.

These occurrences, which are not coincidences, inspire awe and wonder about the great mysteries, which is exactly what they are designed to do. Through the gift of free will, human beings have the ability to believe or disbelieve the information being provided. Instead of providing all the answers in a straightforward manner, beings in spirit employ communication methodologies which encourage the inner journey of determining personal faith and beliefs. Again, this quest to rediscover the knowledge within our souls is part of our spiritual journey as human beings and is written into our soul contracts as lessons for this lifetime.

It is an Honor

The ability to communicate spirit-to-spirit is a unique gift and an honor. It enables me to help others on Earth to better understand our universe, how spirit communication works, our soul purposes, and evidence of what exists beyond life on Earth. It does not mean I am all-knowing. Like you, I am on a spiritual journey to rediscover the hidden knowledge of the great mysteries. Being able to communicate directly with beings in spirit fulfills the calling bestowed upon me in this lifetime to be the bridge between this world and the next. It enables me to help others with their spiritual journeys, while also encouraging my own explorations into the deeper meanings behind our existence.

May your own journey include many inspiring moments of wonder and awe, as well as encouragement to explore beyond the ordinary experiences of life to reveal the extraordinary mysteries of the universe.

Who Do We See in Heaven?

by Leave a Comment

grey cat in the grass

When our loved ones make the transition to Heaven, people frequently ask whether they are reunited with loved ones in spirit who are already there. It is one of the top questions asked beyond whether their newly deceased loved one is at peace and doing well. There are many answers to this question which really begin prior to a loved one crossing over into Heaven, and which have been provided to me through thousands of readings and meditations over the years as a spirit medium.

Who We See Prior to Crossing Over into Heaven

Our Heavenly Support Teams, which are comprised of God, the Archangels, past spiritual masters, Guardian Angels, loved ones in spirit, and more, know when our time to cross over is coming. It does not matter if the passing is sudden or more drawn out due to an illness or ailment. They are around us to help us with the process.

What Occurs Prior to a Sudden Passing

With a sudden passing, there are times when we may have an unusual or deep conversation with someone right before they pass. Often, people ask me whether that person knew they were going to pass. They do not know on an earthly level that they will be passing, but their soul knows, as does their Heavenly Support Team. The prompting for those conversations comes from those in Heaven and they are a gift from above. Loved ones in spirit are there waiting to assist the person passing with their transition to Heaven by bringing them peace, letting them know their time has come to cross over into Heaven, and helping with the process.

What Occurs During a Slower Passing

With a passing that is more drawn out due to an illness or ailment, loved ones in spirit and the Angels gather around the person who will be crossing over. Those who are getting ready to transition to Heaven often see them and talk with them days and sometimes weeks prior to passing. This is not a hallucination, even if they are heavily medicated. They really are present and ready to assist with the transition process. People who are in a coma, are asleep or unconscious, or are unaware of the world due to Alzheimer’s or dementia go to Heaven’s Waiting Room, where loved ones in spirit who are already in Heaven can visit them and prepare them for their full crossing over into Heaven.

During the Transition to Heaven

When the soul is released from its earthly body, there is a delegation of one to three beings in spirit helping the soul to enter the portal to Heaven, also referred to by many as the tunnel, which glows with a brilliant white light. The delegation can consist of loved ones in spirit, including beloved pets in spirit, as well as Angels. They guide the soul to the portal where they enter on their own, as it is a private journey where they experience a montage of positive highlights of their lives and experience a brief time with our Creator. As the soul is reaching the end of the portal, the light of Heaven shines brighter and they begin to see all their loved ones in spirit cheering them on and celebrating their arrival in Heaven.

Who We See Once We Are in Heaven

Upon our full transition into Heaven, we are reunited with ALL the loved ones in spirit we would like to see, including pets. I state it this way because there may be souls we do not want to see due to negative conflicts experienced while on Earth with them. In time, after we have had our non-judgmental life review in which we learn about why we had the experiences we had and the lessons we were to learn, we have the option to reunite with those who brought us harm. This is not to give them a hard time or to ream them out, but to extend forgiveness. This is because during our life review, we attain a higher understanding of the role that soul agreed to play in the lessons we needed for the growth of our soul while on Earth.

Enjoying Heaven Together

Once we are united with those we love in Heaven, we can enjoy Heaven with them, volunteer to become a Guardian Angel to those we love who are still on Earth, and much more. As it is on Earth, but with much more positivity, we decide how we would like to spend our time in paradise. If we had more than one spouse or significant other, there is no fighting or jealousy as our time can be shared as we wish without the lower energies and emotions from Earth interfering. We also share Heaven with our beloved pets in spirit.
