Saturn – a planet of structure, rules, responsibilities and change – has gone retrograde until June 2012. For people that don’t like rules and responsibility, it is not a good time. Come June, should they not have taken care of proverbial business, they will be even more unhappy. But if they take this time to do what needs to be done, to put their back into it, they can see truly amazing results.

The planet Saturn was named after Cronos, a Greco-Roman God, the father of Zeus and the Ruler of Time itself.

There is also an astrological aspect known as Saturn return. It usually hits your chart anywhere from age 28 to 32 years of age. The more you fight the aspects of it, the worse it will be for you. At this stage of your life you will be called upon to decide who and what you want to be for the next 20 or so years, and you will clean house in the process. Read the rest of this entry »

We watched as the 15 month old child explored the world around her on wobbly legs, taking a few steps and then lowering herself back to the carpet to crawl again. She probably is yet unaware that she is typically the center of entertainment at family gatherings.

As time went on, we laughed with her and egged her on to give the upright position another try and she did, time and time again, making her way back and forth between her mother, her grandfather and me.

To inspire her to walk again I turned on the radio, remembering she loved to bounce and dance to the music. She immediately stood up, obviously realizing that it was more fun to dance with me while standing. She had let go of my hands and was bouncing and clapping as she headed unsteadily toward the empty lawn chair on the enclosed porch speaking and singing in baby talk. Read the rest of this entry »

Soul is the energy receptor within the physical body that allows Spirit to work through you. When someone is compassionate, considerate, and paying attention, it is said they have a great soul.

Many would like to make the soul into a thing, but the soul is of energetic nature. Though it is not an organ in the physical sense, it is the energetic aspect or receiver that connects Spirit with humanity.

You can feel it generally in the area of the Solar Plexus or your ‘soul center’. Some would like to place it in the head, making it intellectual and part of the mind, known as the ego, while others would place it in the heart, making it part of the emotional nature of mind or ego. But it isn’t connected to either of these areas or organs. It is your connection to Spirit, to God, all that is good and love. Read the rest of this entry »

Sometimes when people pass over to Spirit, they are taken by surprise and aren’t sure where they are or how they got there. These individuals find themselves stuck in their own environment unable to progress, and wondering where everyone else has gone.

How do people get unstuck and move forward? Well, that’s where rescue work comes in! Some of the most rewarding experiences in my mediumship career have occurred during the rescue sessions that I have been privileged to attend.

Once every month, a group of us would sit in a meditation circle and, with the aid of a facilitator, we would start the rescue process.  After sitting quietly for a few minutes, one of us would ‘take on the persona’ of someone who needed assistance in crossing over and getting to the light.

Clairaudience is generally defined as the ability to hear or perceive sound that is outside the normal range of hearing. It is considered to be a form of channeling by some, and is often described as a pathway for us to receive spiritual messages in thought form, also known as the “little inner voice”.

According to Ananta Yoga Web clairaudience is the “hearing of distant sounds in the astral plane by means of the astral ear. The process is similar to clairvoyance. The astral sound-vibrations are caught hold of by the astral sense of hearing. A clairvoyant need not necessarily be a clairaudient. These are two distinct powers. ”

For me, the messages that come by way of clairaudience from spirit and the guides do not come in the form of literal words. The messages I get that I ‘listen to’ during readings, and in my personal life, are more along the line of interpreting sensations.

Think of it this way: when you feel thirsty your body does not say to you ‘you are thirsty’ in words… but you a feel thirsty sensation. You interpret this sensation in your thoughts, and from mental pictures, and then get a drink of some kind of liquid to quench your thirst. Read the rest of this entry »

If you have not experimented with automatic writing, I encourage you to do so. This is the process of producing material that originates from the spirit world, rather than our individual consciousness. It is a great way to access and download poetry, music, philosophy, and all manner of beauty from spirit.

The following is an example of some automatic writing that I channeled at 10 years of age:

Just as sure as daylight breaks and dusk falls, the seasons change. They are cyclical, representing a constant and assured progression towards renewal and rebirth – an unquestioning and reassuring routine that governs all. Many do not question the linkage of natural order with all else in their lives; just as some do not appreciate the connection between their behavior and their fortune.  Read the rest of this entry »

I can remember so clearly, like it was yesterday, when my cousin Lori passed away. It has been 14 years to the day. I loved her like a sister. We did everything together. Her mother was my mother’s older sister and my godmother. Lori and I were ten years apart to the month.

Aunt Emma, Lori’s mother was like a mother to me. Lori was an only child. From the day I was born Aunt Emma took care of me as if I were also her own child. Lori and I knew what each other was thinking before we even spoke. We had a special bond.

In our young adult life I depended on Lori for emotional support and almost everything about my life. We spoke on the phone daily sometimes several times a day. We shared our most intimate secrets and feelings. Read the rest of this entry »
