Awakening To A New Age Of Higher Dimensions
Many of us have been gradually becoming aware of a different kind of reality in recent years. Things that were once hidden, both good and bad, are now exposed for many of us to see.
Since the new millennium began, and especially in the last ten years, more and more of us have started to feel a deeper connection to a higher power and a growing desire to align with God, Spirit, and the Divine. At the same time, we are also becoming more aware of negative and dark energies that were always present, but are now obvious and undeniable.
This worldwide change is known as the Ascension, the Shift, or the New Earth paradigm. It is a significant shift in energy and awareness. It is also known as 5D consciousness, the Age of Aquarius, or the Great Awakening.
It is a deeply personal change of moving towards unity, love, and a higher level of awareness, and away from negative, fear-based energies of a lower level of awareness.
I’ve seen enough of the negative effects of these lower vibrations in my work to know how draining and soul-destroying it can be. I plan to keep moving with the tides of this new, higher vibrational frequency, which includes not buying into the fear, drama and negativity. It also means keeping an open heart and mind.
We are living in a time of conscious evolution. We are slowly moving from the third-dimensional existence, where duality, time, and materialism remain the focus, to a fifth-dimensional reality, where love, unity, and higher consciousness.
Honoring Yourself In Difficult Family Relationships
Family dynamics can be tremendously complex for many of us. These relationships are multilayered and deeply ingrained, often playing out across generations.
Many of my clients seek psychic insight about family matters. After matters of love and romance, and then business or career, family is often the most emotionally charged subject.
In readings, especially with empaths, intuitives, and highly sensitive individuals, I hear countless stories of family pain. Many carry a sense of never belonging, of being misunderstood or scapegoated.
These emotional burdens are often the heaviest that people bear because they are tied to the people they loved first and still love, despite the hurt.
When control or finances are interwoven into the family structure, the complexity of these relationships multiplies.
For many, family represents a love-hate relationship or a deep bond that carries deep wounds. While we cannot choose our family, we do have a say in how we interact with them, how we respond, and whether we continue to engage.
Severing family ties is a significant and often heartbreaking decision that is never taken lightly. By the time someone considers taking this step, the drama or emotional abuse has often been ongoing for decades and is sometimes rooted in a vividly painful childhood.
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.
A Sign From Spirit, Or A Fear-Based Superstition?
My father and his extended family were very superstitious. For instance, they would never buy a car on a Friday, refused to talk about new shoes in the morning, and never left a house through the back door after entering through the front. I could go on.
These old-world beliefs were ingrained in their way of life and passed down from generation to generation like heirlooms of caution and misery. However, I never experienced any objective evidence that these beliefs were valid — until I had my own unique experience that I at first believed might have been a bad omen.
It was 1983, and I had been hoping to get a job with the local council for quite some time. Then, one day, out of the blue, I landed a contract with them! I was overjoyed. The salary was fantastic and I felt incredibly fortunate, because many people in the UK were unemployed and struggling with a recession.
That weekend, I decided to celebrate by buying a large bottle of very expensive wine. However, as I left the liquor store, the bottle slipped through my fingers and shattered on the ground.
“Oh dear,” I said to my late sister. “I hope that doesn’t mean my dreams will shatter like that! Maybe this is a sign from the universe that my new job will have a bad outcome?”
My dear sister, ever the voice of reason, assured me that it was simply an accident and not a bad omen. Still, coming from a superstitious family, I carried that thought and fear with me into the job.
In the beginning, things went relatively well. But soon, my colleagues turned out to be cruel and nasty, the boss’s secretary was a bully, my boyfriend dumped me, and my father, due to his narcissistic tendencies, kept asking whether I was truly “capable of doing the job.”
Holding On To What Never Changes
Nature always inspires deep thoughts in me. There’s something about pausing to watch the wind rustle through the trees or to see the sun gently filter through the clouds that invites stillness and reflection.
Today, I found myself contemplating the constantly changing seasons. In the Northern Hemisphere, we are a month away from the summer solstice, and the days are becoming increasingly long and warm with golden light. The trees are lush and full, the air hums with the sound of insects, and gardens overflow with life.
Change is everywhere. It’s evident in the ripening of fruit, the intense afternoon heat, and the subtle shift in the season’s energy toward harvest.
It’s not just nature, either. Our lives are constantly evolving, too. Relationships shift, careers transition, health fluctuates, and dreams reshape themselves over time.
No matter where we turn, we hear messages such as “Change is inevitable,” and “Don’t be afraid of change.”
Yes, change is necessary. As spiritual beings, we are meant to continually grow and evolve. Change challenges us, stretches us, and teaches us.
But let’s be honest — sometimes it’s also deeply unsettling. This is especially true in times like these, when the world feels uncertain, divided, and fragile.
How To Manifest Your Life Partner
Is it really possible to manifest your life partner, your soul mate, your person, your match? Yes, absolutely, if you do it the right way. But there’s also a wrong way to do it.
Manifesting love isn’t about chasing someone or endlessly swiping through dating apps — it’s about aligning with the kind of relationship your heart desires. It’s about becoming a magnet for the right person, not just any person.
Whether you’re looking for a soul mate, a spouse, a life partner, or just a deeply fulfilling connection, the magic starts within you.
Many people get discouraged when love doesn’t come their way. They think it must mean there’s something wrong with them, or that love just isn’t in the cards. But often it’s not about luck or timing — it’s about energy, belief and intention. For example, if you’re still holding on to old heartbreaks, self-doubt or fear, you may be unconsciously blocking the very thing you want to invite in.
The good news? You can change that. You can shift your vibration. You can clear out the old energy and make room for someone new — someone who sees you, values you, and truly wants to walk beside you. Manifesting love isn’t just about asking God, Source, the Universe to send you someone – it’s about declaring what you deserve and then aligning your actions and beliefs with that inner truth.
Over the years, I have helped many of my psychic reading clients on their journey to find love. So, if you’re ready to welcome love — not just any love, but the right kind — these next steps will guide you to successfully bringing in your beloved.
When Love Feels Right, But The Timing Is Wrong
Timing in relationships is one of those things that doesn’t always get the attention it deserves, but it plays a huge role in whether a relationship thrives, struggles, or falls apart completely.
Timing isn’t just about when you meet someone – it’s about where you are in life and what you’re ready for, both personally and spiritually, and whether the circumstances around you support the growth of the relationship.
Maybe you’ve met someone at a certain time in your life and thought, “Wow, this is perfect. This is exactly who I need in my life right now.”
Then you move forward, determined to make it work.
But somehow life gets in the way – distance, responsibilities, personal growth, outside pressures, trauma wounds, or unresolved karmic debt – and suddenly what seemed so perfect turns into something stressful, confusing, or even painful. You wonder what went wrong because in your heart you believed it was right.
Or maybe you’ve been on the other side. Someone comes into your life and they’re ready for more than you are. Maybe you love them, but something inside you says, “Not yet. I need more time.”
But they are insistent, determined to make it work, and you go along, unsure but hopeful. And then it all blows up – because deep down you weren’t really ready and they didn’t want to wait.
