He looks a little like this – this is a resemblance based on my lack of art skills.

When I first met my guide, I received a lot of “firsts” instructions from him. Photographing orbs was something I was not aware of and I remember being telepathically instructed to get my digital camera (we didn’t have phone cameras like we do now), and go outside and take photos. It was dark out. I stood by the tree and my son snapped several photos of me with the flash. In several of those photos there were 3 beautiful pink blue white and purple pastel orbs in a triangle above my head and the large one had a smiling face in it. Today, I would recognize that face anywhere. So this is my guide with orbs.

Starting the day with the intention of making yourself spiritually fit to greet the world is a responsibility you have first to yourself and then to all of the other people and animals you come in contact with. There is nothing greater than the experience of inner peace and there is nothing greater than passing that inner peace on to all we come in contact with. Making a habitual practice of connecting within simply through focusing on the internal life force that perpetually burns within us and acknowledging our connection with all things is a great place to start. From there, inspiration comes to develop a deeper connection. Spiritual Hygiene makes the difference between higher and lower frequency behaviors. It will prevent you from expressing negative emotions unconsciously, and it will protect you from being the recipient of other people’s negative emotions because you will not accept them into your energy field. In fact, your energy field will become a natural repellant of negative emotion. If there is anything worthwhile in this world, it is cultivating the practices necessary to attain the state of inner peace. Then you have the freedom to be truly mindful of the present moment in all it’s simple glory. And you can’t put a price on that.

The month of February is going to be a time of escalated movement, although you won’t feel like you are moving at the time. Think of yourself sitting in a Silver Bullet tube train where you are quickly and precisely moving through space and time but you aren’t conscious of it as it’s happening. And yet you find yourself in a different place within and without – a stepping up as it were.

To enhance the process, utilize tools and techniques to go within. Trust that whatever means you use will work, even if you don’t know the how of it. Your effort is all that is required.

Next stop, Hogwarts!

I have habituated being in alignment and I make decisions about daily activities based on moment by moment intuitive intel. A wonderful story was made today which rewarded my loyalty to my guides. I had a vet appointment for my senior dog, Oliver, a little Shih Tzu. Ollie has only one eye, partial hearing, a heart murmur, and there is indication that he has a tumor somewhere based on labs but he could not endure invasive tests or treatments. He doesn’t like his body being touched and he doesn’t like being picked up. He has good days and bad days. I bathe him and cut his hair based on his mood. But when I have to go to the vet, it’s an ordeal because he must be bathed and groomed somewhat. And he is so frail, and they prod and poke, and he hates it. I was going to cancel the vet because he was not in the mood for grooming. But I didn’t call yesterday and when I called this morning, I got the answering machine. I knew I was supposed to go. I looked at Ollie and he seemed ok for a bath – so I bathed and groomed him a little. We went to the vet and when I was discussing his not liking his body touched, she thought he might benefit from pain medication. THAT was it – the reason I wasn’t supposed to miss this appointment. Ollie needed relief. I was elated – he would feel better. As soon as we got home, he got his first pill, and he definitely appears more comfortable. There are so many angels right here on earth and our guides are always trying to direct us to them. There are so many things that have to line up to make that happen but knowing how to walk that unseen path can absolutely be cultivated!

I had several mediumship readings scheduled this week and weekend. During the week, I kept feeling spirit come close to where I got contact chills. My guides or loved ones don’t do this as they know I am not open to receive when I am busy at home or at work so I knew it wasn’t them. I know that spirits of loved ones that I have readings scheduled for come close and check me out to see what kind of communicator I am in preparation for the reading, but this one was persistent, and I finally had to relay that I was not open for spirit now. I was giving a reading over the weekend and when I requested the loved one step forward, I immediately recognized this spirit as the persistent spirit visitor earlier in the week. It was a beautiful reading and I was able to bring through healing evidence for the person I was reading for. At the end of the reading, she stated that she was surprised this loved one came through for me as he does not come through many mediums. I then understood the reason for his close scrutiny.

I ask my Guides for help with everything that I struggle with. I have two senior dogs that require grooming. Their hair grows long and mats if I don’t stay on top of it. But they hate having their hair clipped. It’s not just a dislike, it traumatizes them. I’ve had groomers return Jack saying they can’t work with him and he should be medicated. They each give me about 8 minutes tops before they start seriously yelling so I just stop and that’s what they look like until I decide to do it again. Jack has come so far – he has great trust in me even thought he hates it and I would never turn him over to a groomer again. But it’s still not fun and a constant presence of the next dreaded grooming. So about a week ago, I asked my Guides for help. That was it…please help. This morning I was walking Jack because Oliver was still sleeping, and on the way home, it was impressed upon me to cut Jack’s hair NOW. So I did. I set up the table, got the clippers and the towel and set Jack up. He was absolutely wonderful. He let me cut more than he had ever allowed before. And when he was done, I stopped. The Guides knew that Jack was in the best emotional place for grooming right at that point in time, and I listened. I will now wait for the Word to come down for Oliver.

I was asked to help someone connect with spirit. I had never offered this service before but was strongly compelled to say yes. Before each session, I had no clue what I was going to say or focus on. So the day before our scheduled meeting, I went into the Akashic Records where I met with our respective guides. I was given an outline of the class title and then I was provided with a breakdown of each area that goes under that category. I was also provided insight into areas the student needed special attention on. I was also guided to personal experiences from my own training that had not previously occurred to me. And then throughout the day while exercising or watching various special interest shows, helpful videos would pop up right on point with information that was aligned with the topic for my next lesson. It is so empowering to know that there is someplace to go to receive knowledge and information about what I need to know exactly when I need to know it. One thing I can impart here is that if you ask for a stronger connection with your Spirit Guide, you should be prepared for a heavy dose of healing, which is not always comfortable, but very liberating in the end.

When you make that connection with your spirit guide, it is life changing. You no longer feel the need to look outside of yourself for answers. Your holes disappear. You will be able to navigate the world through a new pair of eyes and if you become unsure about something, all you have to do is check in with your new internal GPS (“Guidance Protection Services”). You will begin to feel at home in your world. You will also become more emotionally expanded and will find you have a new appreciation for the world around you. When you connect with your Spirit Guide, you are ultimately connecting with the whole world around you and small and great offenses will be felt internally – your empathy grows. And then there is the best friend part of it when you actually begin communicating with them and get answers back in real time. However, also be prepared to be called out on your less than savory habits or behaviors. You must be prepared to “clean house” if you want your spirit guide to live there with you. As with all relationships, it is give and take. If you don’t follow suggestions of your spirit guide and ignore them, their ability to assist is greatly hampered. But you can learn all this for yourself. Make the link and foster the most important relationship of all.

I prefer to practice mediumship on my own and not in a group setting online or live. I used to invite the loved ones in spirit of any of my friends or family to step forward but that became awkward when I had to contact the living and explain who came forward during my practice. Somebody has to verify the information I received – that’s the whole point of practice. So I decided to instead request spirits of the world who were famous enough that I could confirm the information they provided by doing research about them online. You my think this is farfetched but it works every time. And from that point forward, I feel I have a more intimate understanding of who they really were because I actually feel their energy. And remember, I never request any spirit to come forward … they are making the decision. But so far, with many of the spirits, there were little clues as to why they stepped forward when I look back. They each gave me 5 to 10 pieces of information with most of it verified online. Sometimes I got the information confused, but when I saw it online, I understood why I thought that. These are the spirits who have stepped forward so far in order of appearance.

1. Linda McCartney (a week before, Paul McCartney made an appearance in my meditation – I had to check to make sure he didn’t pass. Linda was so solid and true. She was very motherly and I very much admired her after our connection);
2. Estelle Roberts (a world renowned medium from the early part of the century). She said she would work with me to improve my skills. I am currently reading her biography;
3. Billie Holiday (she gave me great advice about confidence);
4. Michael Jackson (I dreamt of Michael Jackson and visiting him in his world on the other side years ago so I was not surprised by this. He gave me information about how spirits see and are attracted to my energy as a medium).
5. Frida Kahlo (I found a little chihuahua dog in Miami that I named Frida). I got some information wrong about where she was from and she corrected me. She also brought to light that I judge information that comes in which is my downfall. I got information about her that didn’t jive with what I thought would be the case, so I didn’t write it down, and it was accurate. She confirmed the OCD aspect that is present when you find your true calling. She also stressed that I request a blessing of protection before each mediumship reading.

I was visiting cemeteries in the hopes of receiving communication with spirits there. I went to the same veteran’s cemetery in the same area of the cemetery over a several month period. While I did receive some mental messages, I did not have any activity on my EMF meter or my digital recorder. The last time I went, I knew something was going to happen because I felt nervous expectation walking up to the place. There was snow on the ground and it was completely empty of the living. I turned my EMF meter on and it immediately started going off. I felt that the spirits had finally determined that I was worthy to communicate with. The meter went off in direct response to my questions as I walked around. I came up to a new grave and after communicating with the spirit there through the EMF, I heard in my head “I like you”. And I said out loud, “I like you too”. When I was finished, while walking to my car, I told the spirits that nobody was permitted past that cemetery with me and nobody was permitted to enter my car. While driving home, I felt overwhelmed like I needed grounding. When I was home that night, I was asking my Guide questions on my EMF meter and the response was identical to the response I got at the cemetery. After awhile, you can identify the energy of the EMF meter by the way it blinks. The next day, I was driving in my car, and I felt double. That’s the best way I can explain it. It was as if someone else was also looking out of my eyes. I knew I had company. But the energy was happy – this was a positive spirit. When I got home, I spoke to the spirit and enlisted Divine Beings for help showing the spirit the way to the light. I also saged my entire house and put sea salt in all four corners of the house. By night time, I was feeling normal again. I have since learned that the spirit has been re-directed and it was simply confused. I have also been advised not to visit the cemetery with the intention of communication. I now keep my paranormal investigation close to my home. I have enough visitors right here either through my mediumship work, my loved ones who passed, or my Guides.
