The Lifelong Growth Journey Of A Spirit Messenger
As a professional psychic medium, there are times when I have profound readings with clients that remind me why I chose this path. These moments are touchstones for my own soul journey. Today’s reading with a long-lost client was one of those moments.
We hadn’t spoken in over thirteen years. Life had moved on for both of us. Yet, as usual, spirit had impeccable timing.
Despite the years that had passed, she found my contact information in an old magazine article I wrote nearly fifteen years ago. She doesn’t tend to keep things like this, so she was surprised to stumble upon it.
Was it a coincidence? Or was it a nudge from the other side? I have no doubt that her loved ones orchestrated the whole event, weaving threads of destiny to bring us back together.
From the moment our session began, the energy was electric. Our connection was instantaneous, as if no time had passed at all. It was just as magical as when she first visited my home in South Africa so many years ago.
Her spirit family lined up eagerly, as if they had been waiting for this moment for years. Her late father made his presence known first, with unmistakable details, such as his confident swagger and a certain hand gesture that she instantly recognized.
The reading was filled with laughter, which spirit adores. The joy and elevated vibration only deepened our connection and opened the channel wider. As the energy built, more evidence and heartfelt messages flowed effortlessly.
Tuning In To The Psychic Wisdom Of Animals
Animals are remarkably attuned to our moods. They can sense the vibrations of our thoughts and emotions before we even speak. Their psychic sensitivity defies logic and reaches into the realm of the mystical.
I’ve always been aware that animals can see into our hearts and minds in ways we humans have long forgotten. There’s a quiet, knowing wisdom in their eyes. They show a depth of understanding that suggests they perceive far more than we realize.
People across many cultures and spiritual paths believe that animals come into our lives to teach, guide, and inspire us. They reflect our energy, test our patience, demonstrate unconditional love, and remind us to stay present.
When viewed this way, our connection with animals feels like a sacred soul agreement where both parties grow and learn together.
This concept is also found in spirit animal or totem traditions, which are part of many Indigenous and shamanic teachings.
In these practices, each animal represents a specific type of wisdom or lesson that aligns with something we need to learn. Observing how animals behave or taking note of which ones appear in our dreams can reveal messages intended just for us. These connections help us discover who we really are and remind us that we’re all connected.
In Buddhism, especially the Mahayana tradition, there is a belief that all living beings, including animals, are caught in the cycle of rebirth. This belief fosters deep compassion because any animal could have once been a loved one from a past life. Witnessing animal suffering can open our hearts even more. Animals also teach us how to be mindful. They live in the present moment without attachment or worry. By caring for them with kindness, we grow spiritually and let go of some of our ego.
When The Universe Has Other Plans
The universe has its own divine timing, and when we align with it, things unfold with natural grace that almost feels magical. When something comes about easily and effortlessly, it is meant to be.
How often have we tried to force change in our lives? Whether we’re striving for a career breakthrough, financial stability, or relationship transformation, we often push, hustle, and exhaust ourselves trying to make things happen.
Yet, in the spiritual realm, there is an understanding that not all struggles lead to fruition. Sometimes, a lack of movement is not resistance but divine redirection.
I believe that some paths in life are predestined. On a soul level, we choose specific experiences —challenging or joyful — before we are born so that we may grow, learn, and evolve. Though often mysterious, these soul contracts reveal themselves through synchronicity, intuition, and even delay.
A personal experience brought this truth into sharp focus for me last year when I decided to sell my home. Despite being in a seller’s market and having a desirable, well-maintained property, I received only a few viewings and no solid offers. It was baffling. Logically, everything pointed toward a quick sale.
A trusted psychic colleague then offered to read the situation’s energy for me, since reading these matters for oneself is usually not the best idea. She told me unequivocally that the house was not meant to sell at that time.
Voice Messages From The Spirit Realm
Many years ago, during one of the psychic circle gatherings that I used to host, a loud male voice suddenly echoed from just outside the room. Everyone immediately assumed it was my husband, but he was the only one who wasn’t home at the time. We hadn’t heard the electric gate open or his truck approach.
The voice clearly said, “Hello, girls.” My immediate thought was of my father, who had frequently attended our monthly circles since his passing years earlier.
I have deep respect for experiences like this. It takes considerable energy for spirits to connect with us in such a tangible way through sound. Sound is a dense, physical vibration, one of the lowest frequencies for a spirit to manipulate. Unlike the speed and subtlety of mental, emotional, or psychic communication, external sound requires far more deliberate shaping of energy.
In order to be heard audibly, spirits must bridge a vast vibrational gap by lowering their frequency to become perceptible to our physical senses. This is why such phenomena are rare and profound, requiring effort from the spirit and heightened sensitivity, openness, and reverence from us as receivers.
After inventing the telephone, Alexander Graham Bell reportedly dedicated himself to developing a device that could capture spirits’ voices. Unfortunately, he passed away before realizing that goal. I believe he would be intrigued by the sophisticated digital instruments we now use to detect paranormal activity.
We Can’t Always Rescue The Ones We Love
A topic that often comes up in psychic readings is the client’s concern for someone they love – a child, significant other, sibling, close friend, or even a co-worker.
The problem? Usually the person has chosen a path that is confusing, destructive, or even life-threatening: substance abuse, toxic relationships, unwise career moves, or a lifestyle that just doesn’t make sense to the onlooker.
If you’re nodding your head right now about someone in your own family or circle of friends, you’re not alone. We’ve all been there – watching someone we love make free will choices that, from our perspective, can only lead to pain, loss, or utter disaster.
Maybe they have moved in with someone who is controlling and abusive, or they dropped out of college to move across the country and get married to someone they hardly know. Or maybe they are determined to put their life savings into a shady Ponzi scheme. Maybe they keep repeating choices and patterns that seem so clearly wrong for them.
Maybe you’ve seen the red flags from day one, and your heart is already aching with a kind of spiritual déjà vu…because you know what’s coming. And yet…you feel powerless to stop it.
This is where spiritual teachings can offer both comfort and perspective. According to many wisdom traditions, it’s often the most painful, confusing, or seemingly misguided paths that lead to the greatest soul growth. Sometimes a person must walk through fire or descend into darkness to find their light. And as difficult as that is to witness, it may very well be part of their soul plan.
Why You’re Absolutely Meant To Be Here!
Lately I’ve been hearing more cries for help from clients saying things like: “I really don’t want to be here anymore,” “No one will even miss me when I’m gone,” or “This world is not for me, I never belonged here anyway.”
This sense of despair seems to have increased in recent times. For many, there seems to be an overwhelming sense that the world is spinning out of control. More and more people are struggling with a deep sense of disconnection and hopelessness, triggered by the relentless pace of global upheaval and chaos.
Some also speak of a deep inner alienation — a quiet pain that comes from trying to reconcile their heartfelt values and dreams with a daily reality that feels cold, uncertain, cruel, and fragmented. They no longer see the compassion, unity, or progress they once believed in, and this leaves them questioning their place in the world, or if they even belong here.
It is a powerful reminder of the urgent need for the world’s lightworkers to rise — to hold space, to nurture hope, to foster connection, and to work toward a more compassionate and sustainable future.
I, for one, do not share this negative view regarding my place and purpose in this world, because about three decades ago I faced a serious illness that nearly ended my life. This traumatic chapter led me to a profound realization: we plan our lives before we incarnate, and we all absolutely belong here!
From Lightwork And High Vibes, To Laundry And Dirty Dishes!
To be in the world…but not of it! I imagine this is the secret wish of many a professional psychic. We walk between two worlds on a daily basis – one rooted in spiritual awareness and higher consciousness, the other deeply embedded in the human condition and everyday reality.
Our clients prefer to see us as serene and calm mystics who somehow exist above the daily struggles of ordinary people. But let me be clear: life happens to psychics, too. And sometimes it gets messy!
For example, like everyone else, I have to take care of my usual household chores despite a demanding work schedule. Today I have bills to pay, dishes to wash, and a pile of laundry to do, just to name a few. I don’t get a pass just because I tune into the higher realms for a living.
Short of living in a cave somewhere (and believe me, I’ve been tempted!), psychics are not immune to the challenges and chaos of everyday life.
But what we can do, and what many of us learn to master over time, is to hold a sacred space within ourselves — a sanctuary in our hearts that remains untouched even when the world around us is swirling with turbulence.
Oddly enough, I feel that facing the messy, painful, chaotic challenges of daily life is essential for psychic professionals. These experiences serve as connection points in our spiritual work because they ground us, keep us humble, and make us relatable.
