A Little Note…

From the Perspective of Someone who communicates with the Spirit World.

In my work over the past 20 years, I have seen more things than most of you could imagine. I will share what I have not seen. Angels do not consider color, religion, sexual orientation, etc when helping a soul who is struggling. We don’t evolve further onto our path because we follow what we perceive are man made rules to suit our passions and ego. We follow spiritual laws which most of us have no clue about. Angels look at how we have helped one another, how we have forgiven, how we have loved, what we have done to cherish humanity. They forgive us for being blind sighted in many respects. Angels are not politicians. They are healers. Most of us who felt the bombings in Paris before they actually happened were praying for those whose lives which were lost, both the victims and the perpetrators. All were lost to darkness, even the ones who inflicted harm.

I have been seeing so much bullying about the terrorists. Let me be clear that I am deeply saddened and angered at the events in Paris. I am also angered at the events that occur everyday in our world due to hatred and misunderstanding. I would rather use my energy and intentions to spread forgiveness and understanding to all peoples of the world. Without it, our thoughts are as powerful as those who have weapons in their hands aimed at harming others. We think that we are not capable of harming others with our minds. Think again.

Thursday night before the bombing I was out to dinner with friends. Two of them could see the myriad of spirits around me and the holy person standing behind me with her head veiled in a downwards position and praying. My friends also have vision into the spirit world. The female spirit behind me was praying for those souls who were going to perish, as many times their spirits are taken up before an actual physical death occurs. Interesting, I heard the prayers but no talk on blame, retaliation, etc…only healing. Imagine if we could follow in the steps of those in heaven who profess that kind of love?

The Power of Plant Spirit Healing (Reprinted from New Visions Magazine)

“Crazy Horse dreamed and went into the world where there is nothing but the spirits of all things. That is the real world beyond this one and everything we see here is something like a shadow from that world.” —Black ElkIndigenous plant shamans were well aware of the power they worked with each time they used a plant for medicinal purposes. Their medicine was different, as were their intentions and purposes for healing. We are in a time where the world is changing and we are reaching new evolutionary levels in body, mind, thought and emotion. We must learn to respect the truth that there’s an inner knowing within each one of us that applies to every aspect of our existence – a way for us to pay closer attention to the signals we get when we are in need of healing ourselves.

With every aspect of creation, both personally and collectively, there is a vibration. Whether that vibration is thought, emotion, energy, or essence, it will always carry a polarity of light and darkness to it. From the heavens to the Earth, from the spirit to the soul, from the mind to the heart, we will continually need to learn to balance those polarities as we live each moment. Learning to let the grace of Spirit enter us so that we come to a peaceful stillness within will benefit us whether we use allopathic, natural or complimentary means to heal ourselves.

When we are working with plant spirit healing, we are utilizing the greatest potential of the plant – its spirit – to come into a resonance with the polarity we are hoping to balance. Each plant has a spirit and a soul, as we do, and each plant is connected to a higher power as we are. Indigenous plant shamans would call upon the spirit of each plant to initiate the healing, with respect for and honor to the higher energies that belong to every created living organism. Every time we invoke prayer, we invite in a higher vibration or energy which increases the healing potential of the properties of the plant we are using and brings us into a closer resonance with its healing potential.

A plant mirrors a human being in every aspect of self, spirit and soul. Each plant spirit’s vibration will filter through the physical plant itself and emanate outwards. This vibration carries different frequencies of light which correspond with the physical, emotional and spiritual properties of all sentient and nonsentient beings within its reach. The plant and its spirit can work at various levels to heal a person. One frequency will resonate with the physical body, another with the emotional body, another with the spiritual body, and so on. The ‘bodies’ are all interconnected and one cannot be affected without affecting the other, as one cannot be healed without healing the other. The degree to which this healing unfolds varies with the individual and their higher purpose. The effects subtly influence the energetic structures in the new relationship we are seeking to create with ourselves.

As we become aware of the potential of the plant to heal in this way, we also become aware of our own potential to heal ourselves. We can then begin our work with the plant and its spirit in a different way. Our bodies will naturally become accustomed to utilizing the energy of the plant so that we will need to cultivate less of the physical plant itself to create medicinal remedies. Our bodies will also need less of the physical plant to fulfill its healing purpose. We will create a relationship with the plant which serves a homeopathic purpose for the healing of all things. In turn, this relationship will help conserve the earth’s valuable resources.

Plants are graciously patient. As you create a healing relationship with a plant and its spirit, you will be guided as to the source of your imbalance. The healing remedy of one plant may not necessarily work in the same way for one person as it does for another. That’s because each of our healing journeys are different, and each of our relationships with the plant kingdom are different.

Take a closer look at how you feel the next time you’re surrounded by the stillness of nature. Spend more time in nature and you will notice that not only do you feel more peaceful, but you are guided by the inner physician within all of us. Then, the next time you might not be feeling well, set your intention for healing yourself and see what kinds of plants and flowers attract your attention and how they makes you feel when you are around them. Then read up on these plants to what kind of healing properties they possess and whether they are suited to your condition.

The most important thing to remember is that we are all part of a co creation. When we humbly ask a plant and its spirit for healing, we surrender ourselves to the possibility that there is a force in the universe which is greater than we understand. It’s this force which brings the life and spirit to the plant and it’s this force which will bring you the healing that you need.

Preface for Spiritwalker, The Beginning

Many believe there is a world happening around us that we simply cannot see. It can feel like your existence is such a minute detail in the greater cosmos, interconnected to every living thing in creation. Parallel realities? Astral travel?
The astral plane in ancient traditions was an intermediate world between Heaven and Earth. It was comprised of various dimensions, spirits, and the like. In religious traditions, these dimensions were called by different names, depending on the state of the soul. In Christianity, Paul’s Second Epistle to the Corinthians mentions astral travel or an alternate reality. “I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven – whether in the body or out of the body I do not know. God knows.” Most people have the ability to leave their bodies and travel the astral plane without even knowing. However, there is a group of individuals who do this consciously.
Cultures referred to them as Spiritwalkers, beings who can transcend time and space and interact with the spirit world and unconscious states of humanity. They have influence through privilege in the world of spirits as well as in this world. Spiritwalkers are said to be intermediaries or “empaths” for the seen and unseen. They can enter into alternate realities to gather information and healing medicine to impart upon the wounded soul or living creature. They work in many alternate realities at once to effect change. It can be challenging to distinguish a dream or a vision from another existence as the Spiritwalker embodies that other existence in totality through empathic means. Physical manifestations, emotional consequences, spiritual knowledge, they all become an integral aspect of the Spiritwalker’s life at any given moment in time.
That moment in time may be lifetimes. The Spiritwalker might be eating breakfast at the same moment she is acting as a psychopomp and crossing a spirit who just appeared in front of her over to another world. Also in that moment, she may be having a vision of what will happen in her life the next day, a week from now, or years to come. She is exhausted yet euphoric at the intense energetic matrix she is a part of. Deciding which moment, or lifetime, to focus on, and what is needed to work through them all needs to be initiated while she is sitting at the table with her breakfast getting cold.
She might be acting as a telepath, communicating for someone who is laying unconscious, maybe even dying, and passing along those messages to their loved ones. At the same time, she is helping this soul begin the transition, acting as a medium to the other spirits in the room that are waiting for this to happen. She watches her own body as it begins to manifest symptoms of the dying person. While this is unfolding, sweat pours down her face as she gets glimpses of her own dying process in her past that has similar threads to the person she is helping. As she assists, by the kindness of the spirit world, the trauma her own body has suffered is being released.
She is present in every moment of every reality that she can possibly be, held up by some force or energy that is unexplainable at best. She comes across beings and elementals of all kingdoms. Speaking to spirits becomes a vast paradigm. Once she connects to one spirit, if granted those privileges, she has access to communicating with those spirits of every living thing, from humans to animals to the natural world. She is propelled into a world of good and evil and learns to distinguish by necessity the difference between human will and divine. A boundary system is learned that most people cannot comprehend or relate to as learning to live separately from others becomes key to her survival many times. As she assists in the healing of others and nature, similar threads will continue to pass through her. There is no time continuum when living the life of a Spiritwalker. The past, the present, and the future is an open door, continuously occurring until there is a shift.
Repetition in the spirit world and in the life of a Spiritwalker is normal. A vision, a message, or experience might need to happen many times, until the lesson is learned. Also, there might be myriad perspectives within that lesson. Prophets in various traditions will be seen telling the same story over and over. They have their reasons.
Since so much happens for the Spiritwalker in each moment, she must learn to detach. The reactions and responses to things that would incite an ordinary person would not affect her in the same way. It cannot, or she would lose ground. The beginning is the end and the end is the beginning. With that, I invite to you become a part of a Spiritwalker’s journey.

FEAR
It is nearly past sunset as Mariella sits in the silence of her living room. Her body trembles with fear, her mind races with escalating thoughts of impending doom, her hands clenching the elegant wooden Buddha statue given to her so long ago. Visions pass through her eyes of a parallel reality. She observes her shallow breaths as she cowers toward the golden-hued carpet, her hands in a prayerful state as she drops the Buddha statue and begins to pray.
“Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.” She repeats this phrase until it echoes throughout the room. That cold, still feeling that both entrances and encumbers Mariella when the spirits take over her world is unrelenting.
Those who have crossed from this world into the next, whether they belong to the human, animal, or plant kingdom, whether they are fairies, divas, angels, demons, those who have died recently, or those who have died long ago, they all clamor for her attention. They have since she was a child—a gift and a curse passed down through her family.
Not only do they vie to speak to her and through her, they long to be near her to communicate and help those who are still living. They come to protect her tenfold, and many times they come to do her harm. Many spirits who live in the light take joy in Mariella’s presence and because of that many who live in the darkness try to prevent her from doing the work she was born to do.
As she sits on the floor still enveloped in the Hail Mary, she is reminded of her gifts and burden. Her body writhes with pain as she focuses not only in this world but also in the other and asks for a vision to clarify what is befalling her.
The chill in the air becomes stifling, the lights flicker, and Mariella’s vision blurs as she waits for an apparition or a voice. She hears the empty footsteps in the air around her, the stalking energy becomes apparent, and the death-like breath from the spirit world begins to break through the ethers.
Just a few minutes feels like hours.
Unbeknownst to her, she begins to tremble more. She grasps her ears as the screeches from the outer worlds enter her world, screeches unheard by most humans. They writhe enough to frighten even the most ignorant of souls, and the gentlest of animals. Her diaphragm tightens as she gasps for air. She loses control of her thoughts, the terror taking hold as she realizes she is about to be attacked by a demon.
She has encountered thousands of them throughout her lifetime. In varying forms and intensities, they come when Mariella assumes she is always protected. Some are so strong their powers reach far into this world, once causing a traumatic car accident that almost took her life some years ago, and many times wreaking havoc in her relationships. They had caused mysterious illnesses that doctors could never find the origins of, and in some cases, the cures. The screeches grow louder as these voices begin to swirl through her mind.
She recalls the lineage of psychic powers that has passed from great-grandmother down. She pictures their instructions on protection when a demon of this nature draws near. She wants to know why she is being attacked but asking the demon will only strengthen it. Instead she waits, letting the attack work through her. The visions come and go as she monitors her breath and works effortlessly to breathe a little more deeply.
The demon doesn’t have a name. Its scathing darkness is germinating into a form large enough to hinder her from seeing the very room she is stuck in. The veil between the worlds is so transparent that her living room no longer looks the same. It appears ice cold, and Mariella’s extremities mirror that coldness down to her bones. At this point the demon is so close Mariella loses sight of which world she is in. Is she still protected?
The demon enters her mind. She shudders, trying to understand why he is there because any move she makes or precalculates is already known by her enemy.
She recognizes him, the same one she had fought a thousand times over. She is surprised that those who protect her have allowed him to threaten her again.
What is the reason? Has Mariella broken any of the spiritual cardinal rules? Did she cross any boundaries in the spirit world she wasn’t supposed to? She doesn’t care about the answer. She just wants the tormenting to stop.
The demon meanders through her mind’s eye, the stench of his invisible form permeating Mariella’s home. The rage of this demon is unstoppable. She continues praying, all the while hearing the voices cursing her. She knows she is getting stronger.
This demon’s fury is incomparable to anything she can recall. His previous forms in this lifetime and in others were not as vile. His insidious snarls threaten to destroy any hope of salvation. She waits for this to end as it has so many times before. His form changes before her eyes, his breath caressing her neck. He wants to devour her.
The screeches begin to dissipate, then a silence, a deadening silence. Slowly but surely her heartbeat slows down. Her breath lightens. The abhorrent stench slowly begins to transform to the scent of roses. She lets out a deep sigh and raises her head gently to see angels, fairies, and the good spirits as a shield. These spirits are very familiar to her. The demonic form is gone; the voices leave her head, and she once again feels safe.
The angels are slight in form and color, the animal spirits embracing, the fairies effervescent, and some of Mariella’s guides from Native Americans to indigenous healers and shamans of the world’s cultures are abound. Whenever she is attacked like this, many come, and they always will. Glancing around her living room, she recognizes that she is unscathed.
She only has one thought about the demon, that it returned with a vengeance to take away the good she had created in her life. If she can figure out a way to rise above its nature, the curse will be broken.

More Baby Tracks

It feels like such a long time since I have seen Cindy and the baby. I almost want to call him by name as we talked about names when she came for her session today. She walked in and handed me her phone to listen to the recording of the baby’s heartbeat. All sounded perfect. All was perfect. I could feel it through the heartbeat.

Cindy sat on the floor next to me and the first thing I wanted to discuss was the negative spirits I had seen around her when she accompanied her mother to a session with me. I did not get to work with Cindy directly, but the moment she walked in with her mother  I got a splitting headache. I had seen the kind of spirits around her and knew she had an argument with her mother. I touched on that today and asked her if she and her mother exchanged words right before her mother’s recent visit with me. They had. The reason I was bringing this up today is because ancestral spirits are passed down from one generation to the next. Some of the ones between Cindy and her mother are heightened when they get into power struggles. Then Cindy usually ends up not feeling well. When she came in today, those same spirits were still around her and she let me know she had just finished speaking with her mother and got upset with her over something they were discussing. The baby was fine but I let Cindy know that she needed to work on true forgiveness when it came to their relationship so that the anger and those spirits were not passed onto the child. We spent a lot of time talking about that today, while I was tracking the little guy to see how he was doing.

I tuned into him…(tracking)…”The doctor must be very happy. He is growing perfectly. Good weight, lots of space, he should be moving by now..you should be feeling him. He is fine for a vaginal birth. I still don’t see a C-section is needed at this point in time. I have to ask..who ate junk food recently?” Cindy looked at me and surprisingly said no one. The lil guy pretty much shouted to me that one of them had french fries and that he really liked them so I turned to Cindy and asked. Her mouth hung open as she gasped that her and her husband had went to a diner a few days ago and she had fries and hadn’t had them in a long while! (Tracking)…”He liked them. He is definitely a food lover. He also likes and wants shrimp for some reason. And chocolate chip cookies. Not sure why he is wanting all these foods right now. Really wants those cookies.  He also is telling me that someone was looking at boats and water again and that made him happy. He is a very happy baby.”

Cindy laughed. She said her mom had just asked her if she could eat shellfish for Christmas and the baby must have heard it because he really likes his new grandma. Her husband also mentioned something recently about wanting chocolate chip cookies…so the baby really seems to take after Daddy when it comes to his tummy! Mommy is hoping that he will like more of her healthier fruits and vegetables. I told her at this point no! He seems to be taking after Daddy in many regards. That could change after coming out of the womb but we will see! Cindy also mentioned that the night before she was watching old war movies with boats and water! How funny!

Cindy continues to follow my protocol. Her cold and allergies have gotten somewhat better from the various forms of Vitamin C  I put her on as well as topical castor oil packs. Her hiatal hernia is better too. Since Mommy is better, baby is better. We also talked about the positioning best for her to give birth and with her wide hips and pelvic structure, squatting while standing is preferable. It is what most women did in the fields and throughout time. More natural for the body.

Lastly, Cindy had a list of names for the baby and she wanted me to ask the lil’ guy which he preferred. No one has ever asked me to do that before. She went down the list and some of them he didn’t even want to hear. There were two he really liked, and one was just ok…I am hoping Mommy and Daddy pick one of the ones he really liked!!!!!

More Baby Tracks

Feels like forever since I have seen Cindy and the lil’ guy! Good to see them walking through the door. Cindy came in and was a little out of her body; something I am not used to seeing with her. There was an elderly female spirit to her right and I did not recognize her. The light surrounding her was extraordinary, and so I waited to see what would unfold. Cindy was very anxious and this was something I was actually accustomed to. Cindy had been following the protocol I put her on as she felt her allergies getting worse and what seemed to be the start of bronchitis. The few remedies she was on seemed to help her greatly and when she is ok, baby is ok. Upon sitting down, I remarked that the baby is doing very well. His hydration was remarkable actually and  that he was starting to develop and make a relationship with his five senses.

Tracking..” The baby is starting to move even though you can’t feel it yet. You are better than when I last saw you so he is better. Tuning into you..you have been a little loopy lately from what I am seeing around you. Also, the itching has subsided a bit since your hydration level is increased and your body is getting used to the flux of hormones.” Cindy concurred with what I was sharing. “Baby is telling me that mommy is talking a lot, a real lot. He is craving beta-carotene..interesting…he wants berries.” Cindy looked at me surprised because she was craving carrots so badly that she just had eaten a bunch and was also craving blueberries and was trying to figure out something with berries she could make. “I could see your new home behind you and it looks finished so I am gathering my suggestion about taking things slowly so you do not get stressed is out the window!” We both laughed. Then Cindy shared that she and her husband were meeting with the contractors soon to start the work on the house. I checked in with the lil’ guy and he was alright as long as mommy was alright.

“The lil’ guy wants you to know he likes water and boats..he just keeps showing me water and boats…he also loves colors- vivid colors. He is starting to make a connection with the foods he likes, colors in his brain, smells, feelings, touch. Even if some of this is on a psychic level, he is learning. He is a smart baby. And the food, what an Italian. Pasta, meatsauce, just like your husband! Also, on a different note, your relationship with your mother will heal because your mother and the baby will have a strong connection. He already likes her. And this woman spirit near you..she is helping to heal your relationship. Your mother will be guided. I also have to tell you..this baby will love Christmas..love the tree, the lights, the train that you will put underneath..a big Christmas celebration..he wants you to know now..”

Cindy laughed. First at the Christmas stuff. Her husband is the big holiday person in their home and he cannot wait to decorate the new house and wants to do it the day after Thanksgiving. He has loved Christmas since he was a little boy and his son will take after him. Cindy was happy to hear that the lil’ guy  likes water and boats. She had been planning on doing an ocean theme for his room and she is the lover of water in the family. She was wondering if the baby would share any personality traits with her! As for the colors, she said her husband was the artist in the family which I never knew. She also confirmed surprisingly that her relationship with her mother had already started to shift. She wasn’t sure how to process that. She has tried for years to no avail but she thinks the baby in some way is teaching her mom to respect her more. Cindy is shifting too. That is one of the reasons she is so out of her body. Those negative spirits that I saw in the beginning are nowhere to be found at this point, and the lil’ guy is coming along splendidly. I am not worried at this point about his development nor are his doctors from what I was told! That is great news!

Cindy has been talking to her baby on a daily basis. She has really worked hard on making a relationship with him and that is one of the reasons he is thriving. Her husband is also connecting with him. After talking with the lil’ guy myself, I gently pulled out of his energy field and let him know I will look forward to seeing him again.

Spiritual and Human Worthiness

 

To see beyond the scope of the self and raise one’s awareness of the Godhead within is a feat that all humans undertake. The endurance needed to pursue what we perceive as the worthiness of being a child of God is mandatory. It becomes so not because we are indeed unworthy as children of light, but because we confuse our human worthiness with our sense of spiritual unworthiness, and that tends to bring about much pain and despair.
All of us work through our psycho-spiritual growth from the time we are in the womb. We energetically prepare and immerse ourselves in the concept that we are born into eternal life as connected to the mother. We become engrossed with the possibilities that this divine connection has no boundaries. We become nourished by the perception that we will grow in the unconditional love and presence that we feel as we are protected in this space. On a psycho-spiritual level within the womb, there is an inherent understanding of the light and the darkness but no emotional or experience-perceived understanding. As the boundaries begin to become clearer as we mature inside the womb, we begin to create perceptions based on those boundaries that, in our eyes, separate our human natures from our spiritual natures. What we perceive as the loss of innocence, the loss of ‘pure light’ into the polarity of both extremes, begins to become interpreted at some level as human and spiritual unworthiness. And thus begins our quest to find our way back home to God and to unconditional love and surrender. At the human level, we incorporate this unworthiness into aspects of ourselves as we enter this world. The separation from the womb enables us to live a life where we learn the graces of God as we live from day to day through our experiences of giving, receiving, loving and forgiving. Through trial and error, pain and suffering, joy and happiness, we are given the strength to persevere in the way that we are called to. Not everyone follows that calling though. We learn to embrace all aspects of the psyche with the understanding, conscious or not, that we are human beings whose soul intention is to love and be loved. In our never ending search for this ‘feeling’, we tend to miss the boat and continue the search externally. The unworthiness that many of us feel without knowing it becomes embedded in the psyche only as a deterrent. This deterrent is actually the bridge to the netherworld, our greatest teacher, and the greatest influence we can possibly hope for in achieving the worthiness both human and spiritual that is inherent within each one of us. If we can give permission and acknowledge that unworthiness to be present without shame and with forgiveness, then we can begin to heal the wounds that surround us being worthy as human beings.
We cannot just do the work of being worthy as spiritual beings without embracing the human level. As we begin to embrace the possibilities of being true human beings, we will cease to confuse and separate our notion that being human and divine are different and that we can only be worthy in one realm.
In order to even begin to bring ourselves to the awareness of spiritual worthiness, we have to give ourselves permission to stand before God and be humbled. Perhaps as both human and spiritual children. This humility is not an act of doing, but an act of being. The worthiness that comes through the heavens into our beings is a heavenly gift and a kindness of mercy that we are given as children of God. It is given not because of who or what we perceive we are, nor even for the ways in which we live our lives. In truth, whether we live our lives in the darkness or in the light, we are each given the same degree of worthiness by God. It is what we choose to do with that grace that shapes our inner and outer relationships with the Divine. On the human level, because we have attached a sense of worthiness and unworthiness to who we are and how we live in the world, we are forgetting a very important thing. God is merciful in His or Her kindness.
If our divine and human natures weren’t created to learn forgiveness, then we wouldn’t be made manifest in the image and likeness of the Creator.
Thus, in your lives, remember one thing: spiritual and human worthiness is not bound by God, but bound by your confusion as you make interpretations of who you think you are and who God is for you. What a heavy burden to carry. We cannot aspire to be worthy as spiritual beings without aspirations of being worthy as human beings. The two cannot be separated, nor in truth, can the feelings of despair that come up when we confuse the two, nor the feelings of joy and hope that arise when we embrace them.

Perceptions

We are not bound and tethered by people’s perceptions of us. We are only bound when we internalize those perceptions and make them realities. Living out of those realities can make us suffer more than we need to. Do we have the courage to see differently? And if those perceptions are indeed true, do we have the capacity to understand that we can shift those realities with one conscious choice? I like to think so.
