The Universal Gift of Spirit Communication Is Within You

by Leave a Comment

Angel statue

Each of us is born with the ability to communicate through the hearts of our spirits with loved ones in heaven, the angels, and God. There is an invisible communication network that connects us to all beings in existence. The ability to tap into that network is a skill that can be learned, or as I like to refer to it, a skill that can be remembered. Throughout the many lifetimes we have lived, as well as the time spent in heaven, we have known of this ability and have used it. However, when we are born on earth, our memories of this ability can be veiled from us until the right time approaches. Having an open mind and an open heart helps us to retrieve the knowledge of spirit-to-spirit communication built into our souls. It also helps when you have an older soul, someone who has lived many lifetimes and whose gift is strong, to help guide you through the process and learn how to better manage it.

Benefits of Connecting with Heaven

There are many benefits to learning how to communicate via your spirit with loved ones who have crossed over into heaven, as well as the angels and God. While you may receive signs they are around, it is even better to know why they are around and what they would like to express to you beyond their love. Our loved ones in spirit help us with our lives every day, and if we can open ourselves up to their messages, we can better navigate our lives and become more open to the incredible love that streams into our souls on a daily basis. Our guys and gals in heaven know how challenging life on earth can be. Because of this and because of the great love they have for us, they do their best to support us through our earthly journeys.

Learning a New Language

Learning how to communicate via your spirit can be equated to learning a new language. This is because the way we communicate through our spirits is different from the way we communicate with one another on the earth plane. Loved ones in spirit and the angels use all of our senses to transmit messages. Seeing, feeling, hearing, tasting, smelling, and knowing are ways in which the information is received and transmitted; however, the information comes through our extrasensory senses, which go beyond our earthly senses. They also use symbols to represent information and to communicate concepts. Each person’s symbols are unique, and it takes time to decipher the codes. One of the most amazing aspects of mediumship is that it grows, deepens, and changes. Each day brings an opportunity to expand your knowledge and hone your skills.

Reawakening to the Gifts Within

Spirit mediums are not born knowing they are mediums or conduits to the Other Side. The veil that covers knowledge when we are born is lifted when the time is right for us to share our gifts. We are made aware of our gifts through many experiences, and in my case, I received a true calling that left absolutely no doubt as to my purpose in this lifetime. Not everyone receives this type of calling, nor is it always so strong. Each person has their own mission in life, and serving others in a professional capacity in this way may or may not be your purpose; however, you can still learn how to communicate with loved ones in spirit and the angels. If you feel a strong desire to learn, it is because it is necessary for the growth of your spirit to tap into beneficial guidance from heaven. As a spirit medium, I am an old soul who has been called by God to share the gift of spirit communication with you. When I received my calling, it was one of the most amazing moments in my life. I have known for a long time that my mission includes not only sharing my gifts, but also teaching others to reach within to realize their own abilities to communicate via their spirits.

Education

One of the first steps I took when reawakening to my gifts was to find a teacher to help me better understand how they worked. I trained with some of the top spirit mediums in the world, including James Van Praagh, Tony Stockwell, John Holland, and more. What amazed me the most was my experience triggered a remembering. As I attended the workshops, information recorded within my soul came flooding back and I knew how to perform tasks they were not even teaching. It was truly an amazing experience. A whole new world was opening up for me, and I knew with all of my heart and soul the time had come for me to share my gifts with the world.

What My Students Experience

Students I work with today experience an incredible shift in their mindsets while attending my workshops. It is wonderful to see people open up to spirit for the first time and to grow into their gifts and abilities. Opening up to your natural gifts and abilities is an awe-inspiring experience that floods your life with knowledge, love, and wonder about our extraordinary existence.

Opportunities to Learn

Whether you learn from me or from another professional spirit medium, learning about your gifts of mediumship will help you better recognize not only signs from your loved ones in spirit, but also what they would like to share with you. Your relationships will continue to grow as you learn about this unique form of communication across dimensions. Beyond learning the foundations of spirit communication and how to manage these gifts, you can also expand your knowledge by learning how to communicate with the angels and animals, retrieve information about past lives and the innerworkings of Heaven, utilize psychometry, and much more. The knowledge you receive and the divine connections you nurture can be used for just for yourself or you can choose to use your gifts to help others in both informal and formal ways. We are all given the opportunity to explore our spiritual connections with Heaven, whether we are meant to become professional spirit mediums or not. Enjoy your spiritual journey and your connections with Heaven!

Namaste!

Understanding the Gift of Mediumship

by Leave a Comment

Rainbow Cloud

From time to time, people ask where my gifts of mediumship come from. My answer to that question is simple. Mediumship comes from God. All the gifts and skills we have as individual human beings, whether it is the ability to communicate with loved ones in spirit, excelling at mathematics, or creating works of art, all come from our Creator. God gifts each human being with abilities to help humankind in our own special ways. We all have at least one amazing gift to share with this world. Yours is the one that brings happiness to your heart and brings out the best in you.

Soul Connections

We are all connected through the hearts of our spirits. It is the invisible network that connects us not only to one another, but also with our Heavenly Support Teams, which include God, the Archangels, our loved ones in spirit, animals (both live and deceased), spirit guides, past spiritual masters, guardian angels, and many other spiritual beings in Heaven. The great love that flows between all our souls connects us, creating a beautiful network with God at the hub. It is through this invisible network that communication between spirits, also referred to as souls, occurs.

Everyone is Born with the Gifts of Spirit Communication

Everyone is born with the ability to communicate via our spirits; however, some are more aware of this ability and are more skilled than others. This is because older souls, those who have reincarnated many times, have had more experience communicating spirit-to-spirit than younger souls. If you are meant to learn about and develop your skills in this lifetime, you will be drawn towards it through promptings by your Heavenly Support Team. Learning about your gifts can help you to remain connected with your loved ones in spirit and the angels while also allowing them to help you in this lifetime. It can also help you to help others, as professional spirit mediums do, through the sharing of detailed communications from those in spirit.

Fear and Pretenders

Often, people who fear mediumship do not understand where it comes from or how it works. They may have been misinformed about where the gifts originate or have heard stories about people who attempt to impersonate spirit mediums. It is greatly unfortunate that there are people on this Earth who would pretend to be something they are not in order to hurt or take advantage of someone. These are often younger souls, who have not had many reincarnations, who operate from a place of fear, greed, and selfishness, instead of love. They not only infiltrate the field of mediumship, but also every occupation. We have all received enough spam to know there are people in the world who try to take shortcuts by attempting to take advantage of others instead of investing their time and energy into honest and worthy pursuits. The reason it stands out with mediumship is because it is particularly wrong and hurtful to take advantage of people who are vulnerable and in need of healing. The pretenders can often be easily spotted as they use vague language, do not know what they are talking about, and cannot and do not bring through unique and detailed information from loved ones in spirit that can only be confirmed by the recipient of a reading or those who knew the deceased.

Trust and Faith

Mediumship is an extraordinary gift which comes with great responsibilities. It requires incredible trust, faith, and energy, as well as dedication and integrity, on the part of the spirit medium to be open enough to receive and share everything that is being communicated by those in spirit. Providing a reading is not a straightforward process, but rather a complex one using all the extrasensory and earthly senses. Those in spirit send combinations of images, feelings (physical and emotional), sounds (music, sound effects, words), tastes, and smells through the invisible network which connects all our souls to convey their messages. They often use symbols to get the information through faster. Spirit mediums need to learn how to decipher the unique symbols to comprehend the meanings. Although some symbols can be similar between mediums, most are not universal because each spirit medium has a unique set of experiences that spirit references to create them. Moreover, it is an ongoing process as symbols can change and new ones can be introduced throughout the lifetime of the spirit medium.

Professional spirit mediums take a leap of faith with every reading they provide. Not only do they need to be open to the communications, but also the recipient of a reading needs to be free of any preconceived notions about who is going to come through, how they come through, and what they want to share. The more open of mind and spirit the recipient is, the better the reading flows. The spirit medium has no control over how open a recipient is, which adds another layer of complexity to the process. The goals of spirit mediums are to do their best to help those on Earth to receive meaningful communications from those in spirit while helping those in spirit to convey their messages through this unique and complex form of communication across dimensions.

Not All-Knowing

Contrary to popular belief, spirit mediums do not have all the answers. Information from those in spirit is provided on a need-to-know basis. There are times when those in spirit do not provide a direct answer to a question or a clear-cut way to proceed for a recipient. This is because the recipient of the reading needs to work through issues on their own due to a life lesson or because the delivery of certain information may change the actions of the recipient in ways that would shift them away from lessons they need to learn for the benefit of their souls.

More than Sharing Direct Communications from Heaven

For some spirit mediums, providing readings is only one aspect of their life purpose. There are those who have also been called upon by those in spirit to help humankind better understand our spiritual connections and what exists beyond life on Earth. They are the spiritual teachers, who are often old souls who have reincarnated many times, who use their gifts of mediumship to explore and share the answers to the mysteries of our existence and the universe or to teach others about the gifts of mediumship. When using the gifts of mediumship to retrieve answers about our existence and the universe, the information provided by those in spirit is on a need-to-know basis to the spirit medium. It depends upon the purpose of the information and what those in spirit are permitted to share with humankind. The information often provides a bridge of understanding for certain spiritual concepts without revealing all the answers to the universe. These glimpses into the meaning of our existence helps humankind with our spiritual journeys on Earth.

Explore Your Gifts

While it is not an easy task to be a professional spirit medium, it is an amazing gift to be able to bring healing, love and knowledge through the connections and communications with those in Heaven to those on Earth. I encourage you to explore your own connections with spirit. You can learn some methods for connecting through books; however, to truly learn how to connect, it is best to find a teacher to help you with the process. Wishing you all the best with your spiritual journeys!

Releasing the Past through Forgiveness

by Leave a Comment

Whether it is painful events in the recent past or from as far back as childhood, emotional, mental, and spiritual trauma can be released from your spirit through forgiveness of the person or people involved, including yourself.

Complex Decisions and Challenging Situations

As spiritual beings on a human journey, we decided to live a lifetime on this earth to learn lessons that will enable us to grow as souls. Many of the lessons we have chosen require complex decisions and challenging situations that can have a significant impact on the evolvement of not only our souls, but also on the souls of others. Because we are in a stage of learning, and are not all-knowing beings, mistakes will be made. It is important to forgive each other for the mistakes we make and to look beyond the pain to the lessons that are built into the situations we encounter on a daily basis.

Reasons and Choices

In order for our souls to evolve to a clearer understanding of the reasons for our existence, it is necessary to face challenges that make us question and think about our self-worth, our relationships and connections with others, and whether or not there really is a higher power that guides us.  The reason you experience tragic, sad, or disheartening events is not to drag you down, but to give you a choice. You can choose to let these situations mire you in negativity and self-pity, or you can choose to see the blessings and lessons that God and the Angels are assisting you with in order to open your heart, mind, and spirit to the truth that exists within your soul.

Why It Is Beneficial to Forgive

Forgiveness is an acknowledgement and a release of actions from the past that caused harm to yourself or others. Extending forgiveness does not mean that you are condoning the behavior that caused you or others harm. It means that you have come to terms with the situation and have made a conscious decision to release its hold on you. By recognizing that these events served a very important purpose in your soul evolvement, you can also learn how to express gratefulness for the lessons you learned. In order to do that though, you must be able to look beyond the pain in order to see how you were given the opportunity to grow as a soul. The rewards you receive for perceiving the patterns and lessons behind traumatizing events includes amazing enlightenment about yourself, others, and the universe as a whole, as well as a realization that these events were necessary steps toward achieving your dreams in this lifetime. It is important to note that you do not have to be in someone’s presence in order to forgive them. You can extend forgiveness in your heart and mind by sending forgiving thoughts toward the situation and the people involved. Our connection in spirit with one another allows the messages to be received by the spirit of the person you are forgiving. The people that are here on earth may or may not be consciously aware of your message of forgiveness; however, the spirit that resides within them will have received and acknowledged the forgiveness you have extended.

What Happens When You Refuse to Forgive

Holding grudges, anger, and pain inside of yourself hurts you. Those negative emotions and thoughts prevent you from moving forward and draw toward you more unfortunate circumstances. When you are focused on the lower energies produced by fear and anger, you are dragging down your own energy. This will attract more situations to you that are harmful. By choosing to release negative emotions, you are releasing their hold on you. This will lighten your energetic load and free you up to attract more positive experiences in your life. Keep in mind that how you live your life is your choice. Whether you decide to remain mired in misery or rise above the challenges you face, it is the gift of free will that gives you the option to choose the path that you take. If you need help extending forgiveness, you can ask the Archangels for assistance. They will help you to release the negativity and heal the pain that you have been carrying.

Repetition May Be Necessary

Even after you have extended forgiveness, there may be times when a situation appears in your life which will bring to the surface old pain and remembrances of harmful situations. When this happens, you can extend forgiveness again and visualize the situation and the people involved as healed.

Setting Yourself Free

As you make the choice to free yourself from the past, you are also making the choice to open yourself up to love and more positive experiences. Your spirit will be lighter, and you may even feel as though a physical weight has been lifted from your body. Enjoy the benefits and freedom that comes from releasing your past, and shift your focus to the present, which is full of gifts and opportunities for making positive choices regarding your life path. Namaste!

Embracing Change as an Opportunity for Growth

by Leave a Comment

Change, whether it is perceived as positive or negative, is inevitable. Does the thought of change make you uncomfortable or do you welcome it into your life? Changing circumstances can sometimes be difficult to embrace as they may initially come in the form of negative experiences. Challenging times offer many opportunities for growth and lessons for our souls, while at the same time, may open new vistas that would not have been available unless changes occurred. As human beings, there is a tendency to like routines. They are comfortable and often bring a feeling of safety because we know what to expect and know what is expected of us. When we least expect it, though, events may occur which throw our comfortable routines into perceived chaos, such as a job loss or the ending of an important relationship. Major events such as these can initially appear very negative; however, they can also be the catalyst for necessary and important changes, as well as lessons for our souls, which would not have come about without these events.

Fear of the Unknown

Often, resistance to change exists due to a fear of the unknown. Like routines, there is comfort to be found in that which we know. Just because we do not know what will come next, does not mean it will be negative. Taking a risk or trying something new can often lea d to amazing discoveries and opportunities for happiness and satisfaction. Clinging to the past and familiar routines prevents growth that can come from venturing beyond our norms, which is why our lives are sometimes thrown into chaos. There are times when we need to be spiritually pushed into change in order to grow as souls.

Reasons for the Changes

The events in our lives are orchestrated according to the soul contracts we made prior to being born on Earth. Soul contracts are agreements made to learn particular lessons designed to help us achieve the most growth for our souls while here. They are high-level plans which describe the lessons, but do not describe how exactly events will unfold. This is because we have the gift of free will to make choices about our lives. Therefore, events need to be organized in real-time based on the choices we make on a moment-to-moment basis. We may be presented with an opportunity to learn a specific lesson for our souls; however, due to the choices we make, we may miss the opportunity for growth. Another series of events will be orchestrated in the future to help us to learn the lesson we missed. This will occur until we learn the particular lesson, while we are also being presented with additional lessons we need to learn in other areas of our lives.

There are times when patterns can be perceived in the events we are experiencing. These patterns are clues to the lessons we need to learn. For instance, if we continually come across situations in which people are ignoring our needs, attempting to suppress our voice, or actively working against our higher good, then the lessons that need to be learned include knowing our worth and loving ourselves enough to know when to stand up and speak up for ourselves in an assertive way.

Orchestrating Events

Every event on Earth is designed to help multiple people at once. It is an extremely intricate process which requires the lining up of an incredible amount of details to bring about the changes and challenges necessary for growth. All the actions and events are directed by our Heavenly Support Teams based upon our soul contracts. To see the amazing ways in which these synchronicities are lined up is staggering with its sheer volume of details, all aimed at helping us live our lives in ways that bring about the opportunities for growth agreed to before birth.

Evolution through Change

Even though events may initially be perceived as negative, there is always a positive reason for their occurrence, which is the evolution of our souls through growth. As human beings, it is easy to get caught up in the negativity or fears surrounding change. It is the human ego, which is where our fears originate, that tries to derail us with negative thoughts of doom and gloom. The human ego is gifted to us when we are born as a generator of obstacles we are meant to learn how to manage. The negativity issued by the ego is necessary on Earth to present us with challenges for our agreed-to life lessons. In Heaven, this type of negativity does not exist. We have it on Earth because this is where we come for accelerated growth of our souls.

When major disruptions occur in our lives, we can allow ourselves to become stuck in the negative or we can work through the issues knowing there is a positive reason for their occurrence. To break out of the rut of negativity, do your best to focus on the solutions instead of the problem. Define actions you can take and start working on them. Even though events may take you on an unanticipated path, these events can also lead to a brighter future. As an example of this, when I was laid off after fifteen years with a corporate company, I could have allowed myself to wallow in the disparity of the loss. Instead, I saw it as an opportunity to invest in myself and my future by writing my first book and going full-time with my business. It took a tremendous leap of faith to do this. I cannot say that enough. I was entering a period in my life that would require great faith, extremely hard work, and strong determination to succeed. Once I made up my mind to focus on the solution, I took immediate action. Within 24 hours of being laid off, I was writing my book, contacting publishers to figure out the best steps to take, and moving forward with the expansion of my business. To this day, I am grateful for those life-changing circumstances because they pushed me into a situation that brought about opportunities to follow my passion and share my gifts with the world on a much larger scale.

You, too, can make important changes to your life. When faced with challenging circumstances, look toward solutions. Open your mind to the possibilities and let go of circumstances over which you have little to no control. It is healthy to mourn the loss of that which is gone and to acknowledge your pain; however, getting lost in the sadness by keeping your focus there for an extended period of time will not bring about the changes calling to your soul.

Moving Forward

Our lives are constantly evolving. There is comfort to be found in the familiar; however, without change there is no growth. Embrace the changes, look to the solutions, and take steps to bring about the solutions. Doing so may require great leaps of faith and hard work; however, the rewards awaiting you can bring about the very circumstances your soul needs. Whether it is a higher understanding of life’s events, the fulfillment of your personal calling, inner peace, making a positive difference in the lives of others, or much more, change can bring about opportunities that answer the call in your soul to evolve in ways which usher in personal satisfaction, meaningful growth, and profound discoveries about you and the world around you.

Namaste!

Do the Energies of our Loved Ones in Spirit Remain within Objects They Owned or within Photographs?

by Leave a Comment

Psychometry, which is the ability to retrieve information about beings and events through the touching of an object, can be performed by Spirit Mediums, who communicate soul-to-soul with beings in spirit. The ability works through the energy stored within an object by the being who used it, whether living or deceased.

A World of Energy

Everything in existence is comprised of energy. As we go through our daily lives, we encounter the energies of others and emit our own. The transference of energy from person-to-person can occur easily within certain circumstances, such as when we are emotionally moved by a theatrical performance or concert, when we are sharing a joyful moment with family or friends, or when we are experiencing a situation which causes negative emotions to emerge. Energy transference can also occur from people to objects and objects to people. For example, when you enter a particular building, such as a home or workplace, there is a vibe or overall feeling you can receive about the premises. This is coming from energy stored in the objects and location from the people who occupied the space in the past or the present. Energy transfers also occur with objects kept in very close proximity to a person or animal. Jewelry, watches, glasses, cellphones, well-used furniture (e.g., favorite chair or bed), pet collars, pet beds, and pet toys usually maintain strong storage of the energy of a being because they are kept close to the body. More mundane objects, such as checkbooks, cologne or perfume bottles, or wall calendars, do not contain a lot of stored energy because even though they were used often, they were not in repetitive close contact with the person or animal.

How Psychometry Works

When a spirit medium touches or holds an object with the specific intention of retrieving information about a person or pet, they are using their extrasensory senses to tap into the energies stored within the object. When doing this with an object which belongs to a person or animal who is deceased, they can also connect with the soul of the being to receive communications. The process starts with the retrieval of information stored within the object which can reveal scenes, emotions, and events from the past. They then ask the being in spirit who is connected to the object if they would like to share communications with the person who provided the object. If they do decide to step up to communicate, which most of the time they do, even more information is transmitted from the being in spirit about their life, including but not limited to, who they were in life, activities they participated in, memories of events, how they passed, and much more. Once the connection is established with the person or animal in spirit, and the person or recipient of the reading who brought the object to the spirit medium confirms or validates the identity of the deceased loved one, then the spirit medium asks the being in spirit what messages they would like to share. The messages are transmitted in the same way the information from the past was sent, which includes the use of all the extrasensory senses of clear seeing, feeling, hearing, tasting, smelling, and knowing.

Cleansing of Energy from Objects or Locations

There are cases in which locations and objects can store a tremendous amount of negative energies from emotionally charged events or troubling circumstances, such as violent encounters or people who experienced great distress or despair. The objects and locations can be cleansed of these energies in a variety of ways; however, at the same time, it can also remove important historical information which can provide valuable insights into events from the past. The information, if cleansed, can sometimes be retrieved but it is much more challenging to do so because the spirit medium would need to dig below the layer of cleansing and reach out in spirit to those who were affected by the tragedies to piece together the circumstances. One of the most effective ways to cleanse an object or location of negative or unwanted energies is to use energy healing, such as Reiki. There are other spiritual or ceremonial actions which can be taken to cleanse a space, including calling upon ancestors, spirit guides, or Archangels. The process can differ across the world depending upon the cultural norms and practices of the location.

Photographs

The process of using photographs to connect with a person or animal in spirit differs from psychometry because it does not involve the retrieval of energy or information from an object. It is a method for spirit mediums to connect with a specific loved one in spirit for a recipient in which the spirit medium requests the presence of the person or animal in the photograph to see if they would like to share communications. Our energies or pieces of our souls are not trapped or contained in the photograph in any way. They are a tool that can be used to create a connection between the spirit medium, the loved one in spirit, and the recipient of a reading.

Are Psychometry or Photographs Necessary to Connect with Loved Ones in Spirit?

Spirit Mediums do not need objects or photographs to communicate with loved ones in spirit. Those in spirit will come forward on their own to communicate during a reading because they orchestrated the events which brough the spirit medium and recipient together. The use of objects or photos can be employed as tools to assist with a direct connection with a specific loved one in spirit; however, they are not required or necessary.

Namaste!

Ghosts and Spirits – Should They be Feared or Embraced?

by Leave a Comment

Ghosts and spirits have a job. It is not, as many believe, to frighten or harm us, but rather to remind us that there is more to this universe than our small earthly world. Experiences with ghosts and spirits are one of the methods utilized by our Heavenly Support Teams to expand our thoughts beyond the mundane on earth to that which exists beyond the ordinary experiences we have each day.

Fears Fuel the Imagination

Some people are afraid of the unknown and automatically express fear at experiencing anything out of the ordinary. That fear multiplies and imaginations go wild to the point where people think ghosts are coming after them with the intent to do harm. Allowing your fears to overtake you has the potential to escalate and amplify them. Also, when we are taken by surprise, our survival instincts kick in, shooting adrenaline throughout our bodies. The quick influx of adrenaline triggers an alert throughout our systems for potential dangers. This does not mean that true dangers exist, though. It is more of a startle reflex in which all of the senses are heightened, meaning that anything we see, such as a flash of light, or hear, such as a twig breaking, are amplified. When fear takes over, these experiences can seem ominous.

Mischievous But Not Harmful

Spirits can be mischievous, especially if they liked having fun when they were alive on earth. Just as God uses the soul evolvement of the living to fulfill soul contracts, God also employs those in spirit who are on different levels of soul evolvement to help those on earth. For instance, a friend of mine in spirit likes to “borrow” objects from my house, only to return them two weeks later in the vicinity in which they disappeared. My friend’s mischievous fun is characteristic of his personality and his antics taught me valuable lessons about objects transported between dimensions. In addition to borrowing objects, spirits can utilize energy to move items, pipe scents into the air, blink lights, and freeze up electronic objects like cellphones, your cable box, and more.  At times, spirits like to revisit places that were important to their lives – whether they were positive or negative experiences. Deep emotional connections with people, places, and objects are what attract spirits to particular locations. They love to connect with us and communicate their histories or messages of import.

Powerful Illusions

It is very important to note that I have never encountered any being in spirit who was intent on harming me. While beings in spirit employ interesting tactics for capturing my attention, they have never brought me harm. To me reports of demons and demonic encounters are tricks of the mind based on emotional fears of the unknown. One of the topics I write about in my book, How Have You Loved?, is how fear can create powerful illusions that seem real. We can bring fearful thoughts to life if we give them power. For instance, when visiting a Halloween hayride or haunted house, people can become truly frightened by the actors, props, and scenery, even though they know it is all an illusion. The same is true when people are experiencing unexplained phenomenon. The first thoughts may be that “demons” must be present. TV shows and movies have added a lot of confusion and misinformation about how beings in spirit are perceived because they play into the fear factor for sensationalism. More often than not, it is often our loved ones in spirit who are there to help us with their love and support.

Energetic Impressions

When people report seeing spirits or ghosts performing the same actions over and over again, it is often left over energy that plays like a recording. There is no interaction with this type of ghost because it is not the actual spirit but something akin to a hologram. This type of phenomena occurs in locations where this being experienced strong emotional reactions to events. An energetic impression of what they were doing at the time of the event is left behind, which can sometimes be seen, felt, or heard by those whose who are sensitive to extrasensory energies.

What You Can Do When You Encounter a Spirit

When you are experiencing other-worldly visits, my best advice is for you to relax. It is most likely one of your loved ones in spirit that is stopping by to say hello. If you are visiting a historic location or see people in spirit you do not recognize, such as a man, woman or child dressed in period clothing, I recommend relaxing and viewing the situation from a place of curiosity and compassion. Your ability to see, feel, hear, taste or smell communications from spirits your openness to their light, love, and helpful energies.

If you do not wish to communicate with spirits, you can let them know that by thinking it or saying it out loud. There is no need to raise your voice or be rude. Simply state it in a matter of fact way and ask them to leave you alone. If you feel the need for extra assistance, call on Archangel Michael to protect you and remove them from your presence. Most of the time, though, spirits want to communicate a message that will help you or someone else. If you are having experiences with spirit often, or would like to know more about how spirits communicate, I highly recommend that you learn about it. There are many dependable resources from professional spirit mediums that will help you to understand more about the world of spirit. You can increase your knowledge through books, classes, and workshops.

Much can be Learned from Spirits

From the ancient peoples of the past to the people of today, there has been a cultural connection with the world of spirits. The fascination people have with ghosts and spirits is no mistake. It is a fascinating way of keeping our minds open to that which exists beyond life on earth. It also reminds us of our history, including people’s stories and experiences on earth, as their presents gets people talking and thinking on a soul level.  There is no coincidence in the uptick of interest in ghosts and other-worldly beings. It represents the pivotal awakening of the world to spiritual matters. Not everyone will wake up to the gifts within them in this lifetime; however, more and more people will be guided toward a spiritual path in an effort to bring more light and love to this planet. This movement toward the spiritual aspects of our existence has the potential to usher in more peace on earth through personal contentment, knowledge, and universal understanding.

Much can be learned from ghosts and spirits. They hold information from the past, the present, and the future, as well as information about life after death and the universe. There is no need to fear them, as they are in our midst to teach us about our souls, as well as all that exists beyond life on earth. Namaste!
