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 »

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.

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 »

I read for a lady yesterday, whose little dog had passed to spirit. I could see her dog and described him to her. I also felt I had to emphasize that this little dog was using his back legs, as if spirit was specifically drawing my attention to that detail.

It turned out the little dog had suffered a stroke and no longer had the use of his back legs when he passed to spirit. But in my vision he was jumping around and standing on his back legs, getting loads of love and attention, and basically showing off that he could use his legs once again.

I could feel this lady’s pain and the excitement of the dog to be making contact with his owner from the other side, but I felt so sad that she had no knowledge of what happens when an animal or human crosses over to the other side. Sometimes mediums just give out the details of their clairvoyant visions, without realizing the significance to the recipient. Read the rest of this entry »

My grandmother was my first valuable teacher with regards metaphysical beliefs and all things spiritual. She taught me, for example, to read the Bible literally and not bend the truths in the scripture, like some religious groups tend to do.

My family, including my grandmother, is German and I grew up and lived there until 1995. During the war, my grandmother lived in the Eastern part of Germany, which was later occupied by the Russians. Much later, after the war had ended and just before the wall between the two parts was closed for good, she fled over the border to West Germany.

On the other side of the border she took care of herself as best she could, like the rest of the battered and displaced population, while patiently waiting for the return of her husband and young son. They were both soldiers, as most of the men were in those days. Mother always told me that my granny must have been very brave and patient, because she had had no news from either one of them for years. Yet, she never wavered in her faith that they would indeed return. Read the rest of this entry »

I developed as a medium in a Spiritualist church and one of my first experiences of astral travel was while tuning into spirit in the development circle. I was joined on this journey by my favorite uncle.

I was very close to my uncle before he passed away. As a child it would break my heart when he had finished his holiday with us and would have to go back to work hundreds of miles away.

So naturally, as I grew older, I decided I would like to live and work with him in London. I longed to see the bright lights and be a part of the excitement of city life, but be safe too. Sadly, he passed away before anything could come of my plans. I missed him terribly. He taught me all I knew about spirit and ghostly visitations, so it seemed fitting that he should take me on my first trip into the spiritual realm. Read the rest of this entry »

We all possess the gift. Most of us do not believe, or wish to tap into our psychic abilities. Some of us may not be ready to use the gift for good, so it’s probably good that God doesn’t allow some of us to access that part of our psyche.

We are all at different stages of development, but that doesn’t mean that one is better than the other – because some have the gift and some do not. It all depends on divine timing. We must learn as the lessons are given, until we evolve in such a way that we may tap into the gift when we are ready, or when God feels we are ready to bestow it.

One night my dearly departed Grandfather came to me in a dream. He was driving this very old-fashioned car, which I later learned he used to own when I paged through the pictures in an old family album. He just was there, he didn’t say anything. I was embracing the light he had brought with him. It was such pure love and just filled me up, and I was so happy and content. I also knew and sensed there were other beings of light present, who may have helped him to make himself known to me. Read the rest of this entry »
