If you appreciate tales of ghosts that validate the existence of life after death and showcase communication with spirits from the other side, you might find the following story about a true paranormal event involving my family and friends intriguing.

In his youth, one of my cousins was often seen with a tight-knit group of friends who engaged in light-hearted antics. They were always together.

Eventually, one of his closest friends got married but soon faced unemployment. Regrettably, he fell into debt, his wife left him, and he struggled with a tumultuous relationship with his mother. His financial troubles escalated, he was unable to secure a new job, and there were no indications of reconciliation with his wife.

This unfortunate soul felt a sense of hopelessness, convinced that his situation would never improve, regardless of his efforts. Circumstances remained unchanged, and he sank deeper into despair. In search of an escape, he drove into the woods near his home one frigid November night and took his own life.

I often wish I could have reached out to him before he made that irreversible choice. I would have conveyed to him the importance of life and the futility of considering such actions. I urge anyone grappling with suicidal thoughts to seek professional assistance immediately.

Sadly, my cousin’s beloved friend was already beyond help.

He left a note requesting that his funeral be devoid of his wife and mother. Furthermore, he asked for the van in which he died to be sold to cover the funeral expenses, as he lacked the means to pay for it.

Love is our origin and our final destination. Our spirit was animated by the loving energy of a higher power, and as we release our last breath our spirits will dissipate back into that love ~ Brendon Burchard

<pHis friends chose to respect his wishes, opting not to sell the van. Instead, they came together, and with the kindness of friends, family, and neighbors, they managed to cover the cost of his funeral.

After the funeral service, my cousin and his friends brought the van, where their friend had died, back to the very woods where he had taken his life and set it ablaze. They soaked the van in gasoline and ignited it. In an astonishing turn of events, the horn unexpectedly honked three times! To their utter astonishment, the lights also began flashing.

Was this a result of short circuits from melting wires or some kind of electrical malfunction? Or perhaps a damaged battery triggering the alarm system? Could the extreme heat have warped or melted the horn?

Or was it simply a gesture from their friend, thanking them for what they had done?

My cousin recounted that the horn began beeping moments before the van was ignited. This struck a chord with me. Throughout my years of investigating the paranormal, I have observed that spirits can communicate their gratitude through indirect means, just as my cousin’s friend did in that moment.

I have had a few extraordinary supernatural encounters myself.

Years ago, during my time in community care, I looked after a lovely 90-year-old man. Unfortunately, his wife was in a hospice dying, and it pained me to witness his struggle during such a trying period.

Let us be grateful to the people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom ~ Marcel Proust

One day, not long after her passing, I visited him. As I entered his room, a strong scent of lavender enveloped the space.

“What is that delightful aroma?” I inquired.

“It’s just my wife letting me know she’s still around,” he affirmed.

He explained that his wife adored lavender perfume and would always wear it whenever he gifted her a bottle, as a sign of her appreciation.

For those curious, he didn’t spray lavender perfume throughout the house out of grief. One of my responsibilities was to clean every corner of his home, and I can assure you that in the entire duration of my stay, I did not encounter a single bottle of lavender perfume, essential oil, or air freshener.

After my sister passed away, her husband allocated her entire estate to a neighbor, leaving me with nothing to cherish in memory of her. Aware of this, my mother gifted me a ring that my sister had given her many years back when she was just 16. She told me that I now had something unique to remember my sister by.

Since the ring was too small for my finger, I decided to wear it on a chain around my neck. One evening, just before bed, I removed my necklace, causing the ring to slip off and roll under the bed. My husband assured me not to worry, as he would retrieve it the following day.

Indeed, when I woke up the next morning, the ring was perched on my bedside table. I expressed my gratitude to my husband for finding it. To my surprise, he confessed he had completely forgotten about it. It wasn’t him who placed the ring there, and he had no clue how it arrived.

Could my departed sister have been showing her wish for me to possess her ring by placing it in that spot? As always, dear reader, I leave that to your interpretation.

 Love is a symbol of eternity. It wipes out all sense of time, destroying all memory of a beginning and all fear of an end ~ Madame de Staël

Sadly, a large number of individuals view spirit visitations and supernatural occurrences as frightening and malevolent, when in reality, this is often not true. This is primarily influenced by exaggerated representations in mainstream culture. Misunderstandings tend to foster fear and confusion, obscuring the diverse and often positive nature of these events.

In fact, most of these events and encounters with spirits are compassionate, comforting, or deeply significant rather than threatening. Experiences may range from a faint awareness of their presence or a familiar scent to vivid dreams or even sightings of deceased loved ones. These events are often signs of connection, enlightenment, or merely a residual energetic presence.

Once the initial shock or unease fades, embracing these experiences with an open heart can reshape your understanding of them. Rather than fearing the unknown, perceive these encounters as gentle whispers from the beyond. They serve as tender reminders that love, connection, and existence extend far beyond our physical reality.

Such moments can be tremendously healing, providing comfort in sorrow, clarity during uncertainty, and a profound peace in knowing that our emotional ties surpass the veil separating worlds.

Showing gratitude is an impactful practice that can dramatically influence our lives. It allows us to recognize the positive aspects in our lives while fostering a sense of connectivity and optimism. While we often think of showing gratitude to individuals in our lives, have you ever contemplated expressing it to the spirit realm?

In various spiritual beliefs and traditions, it’s thought that our departed loved ones continue to watch over and guide us from beyond. Although these spirits might not communicate with us in the same manner we do with the living, it doesn’t imply that they are unaware of our sentiments. Many believe that by expressing gratitude to the spirit world, our loved ones can perceive our appreciation.

By expressing gratitude towards the spirit realm, we not only acknowledge our loved ones’ influence in our lives, but we also open ourselves to receive their guidance and assistance. This act of appreciation generates a positive and loving energy that can enhance our bond with the spirit world.

So, how can we convey gratitude to the spirit world? One straightforward approach is to verbally or internally say “thank you.” You might also pen a letter or journal expressing your gratitude to those departed loved ones. Additionally, lighting a candle or offering a prayer in their memory can serve as a meaningful way to demonstrate your appreciation.

It’s essential to recognize that expressing gratitude towards the spirit world is a personal journey. There’s no right or incorrect method, as long as it stems from a genuine place of love and sincerity. Whether you hold beliefs in the spirit realm or not, taking the time to express gratitude can positively affect your life and those around you.

In conclusion, expressing gratitude to the spirit world can be a profound and significant practice. By appreciating the role our departed loved ones play in our lives, we can fortify our connection with the spirit realm and open ourselves up to their guidance and support. So, the next time you feel thankful for something in your life, don’t hesitate to convey that gratitude to the other side. You never know how your words of appreciation may resonate and be acknowledged from beyond. Continue reading →

Engaging in rescue mediumship has always been significant for me. Since the onset of my journey, I felt drawn to the profound task of guiding confused or lost spirits toward the light.

I first encountered this process in advanced mediumship courses at my spiritualist church. A few times yearly, we convened in meditation circles guided by a remarkable reverend who created a nurturing and sacred environment for spirit communication.

The aim of these sessions was both simple and profound: to assist earthbound spirits who were unaware of their passing or were struggling to transition into the afterlife. These souls, often disoriented and confused, required a gentle nudge (or occasionally a firmer push) to achieve eternal peace beyond.

Our rescue circle, which typically consisted of around eight participants, would sit quietly, attuning ourselves to the spirit realm. One after another, spirits would come forward, communicating through one of us. We would hear their voices in our minds, or sometimes even channel them directly, mimicking their speech patterns or behaviors. The reverend facilitated the dialogue by posing questions to reveal the spirit’s identity and narrative. Who were they? What had occurred? What memories did they hold?

These encounters were profoundly emotional and often etched in my memory. One of the earliest I recall involved a young boy who reached out to me. He was hiding under a bed, unaware that he had perished in a house fire. The image was striking: the foot of the bed had collapsed, forming a small triangle of shelter. We then called his mother from the spirit world, gently encouraging the boy to take her hand and step into the light.

Another spirit we encountered was that of a young mother sitting on her kitchen counter, puzzled by the silence enveloping her home. She was oblivious to the fact that her entire family had died in a car accident. While others had moved on, she lingered, lost in her sorrow and confusion. With her usual grace and wisdom, the reverend connected the woman with a senior family member, allowing her to reunite with her husband and children.

Earthbound spirits – essentially individuals who have not fully transitioned to the afterlife – are omnipresent, seeking resolution and desiring guidance towards the light. Like any of us, they are souls in need of assistance ~ Amy Major

Not every case was straightforward. Once, I encountered a soldier clad in full uniform, musket in hand, searching for his unit. He was resolute and skeptical, hesitant to accept our help. Yet, our group leader knew precisely what to do. Instead of calling a family member, the reverend summoned his commanding officer. With a decisive command, the spirit saluted and followed his superior into the light without a word.

There were also moments of levity. For instance, one day, a cheerful Southern gentleman came through, slurring his speech while sitting in a rocking chair, suspenders pulled tightly. He was blissfully unaware that his moonshine still had exploded, taking him with it! His makeshift apparatus was bound to fail at some point due to lack of safety standards. It required patience and a good deal of laughter to help him concentrate enough to transition.

These stories exemplify the diverse and profoundly human nature of these encounters. Each spirit, like each person, possesses a unique history, emotional landscape, and reasons for remaining attached to the earthly plane.

What Is Rescue Mediumship?

So, what defines a rescue medium? While the term might evoke images from television dramas or ghost-hunting programs, genuine rescue mediumship is a sacred, compassionate calling. It entails aiding earthbound souls who have not fully transitioned after death, helping them find their way home.

Differing from mental or evidential mediumship, which concentrates on conveying messages from deceased loved ones, rescue mediumship resembles spiritual ‘social work.’ It demands patience and discernment, alongside a structured approach that typically includes four core elements: communication, counseling, clearing, and guidance.

Communication. Employing psychic abilities such as clairvoyance (seeing), clairaudience (hearing), and clairsentience (feeling), the rescue medium establishes contact with the earthbound spirit. This connection facilitates awareness of the lost soul’s identity, emotional condition, and reasons for their earthly ties. Such details are crucial for building trust and fostering understanding.

Counseling. Numerous spirits linger due to unresolved trauma, guilt, fear, or grief. A compassionate medium can provide comfort and reassurance to address these emotional barriers. Sometimes, all a spirit needs is to be acknowledged and validated. At other times, they require assistance in confronting painful truths.

Correction. Severing unhealthy attachments can be necessary when a spirit’s presence impacts the living. Earthbound spirits may tether themselves to locations or individuals, particularly if they feel a strong emotional bond or have unaddressed concerns. While many attachments are harmless, others can be disruptive. Rescue mediums delicately release these spirits, returning balance and harmony to everyone involved.

Charting. With assistance from spirit guides, angels, departed loved ones, and ancestors, the rescue medium encourages and directs the spirit to move on by revealing pathways or guiding them toward the “exit.” This stage often involves visualizing light, elevating the spirit’s vibration, and facilitating their transition to the other side.

Ghosts frequently have unresolved earthly matters. They remain here because they seek more physical sensations, may fear what awaits them in the afterlife, or, more often than not, are simply inquisitive ~ James Van Praagh

Why Spirits Stay Earthbound

The reasons a soul remains tied to the earth are as numerous as humanity itself. Some spirits may not comprehend that they have passed away. Others might be held back by fear of judgment, attachment to loved ones, or traumatic experiences related to their death. Emotional distress, unfinished business, or mere confusion can also bind a soul to the earthly realm.

Fortunately, no spirit is ever truly isolated. Even when they cannot sense them, spiritual guides and loved ones are perpetually nearby, waiting for the appropriate moment to intervene. A rescue medium serves as a bridge between the spirit and these awaiting helpers.

In certain instances, spirits may attach themselves to individuals who remind them of loved ones, in search of comfort or closure. While some attachments are benign, others may harbor negative intentions. Rescue mediums are adept at gently extricating these attachments and providing healing for both the spirit and the person affected.

Residual energy constitutes another phenomenon frequently misinterpreted as a haunting. These are not spirits in the strictest sense, but rather emotional imprints left behind by intense events. Rescue mediums can clear this energy, contributing to a restoration of calm and emotional clarity in the living environment.

Misconceptions & Ethical Practices

It’s crucial to recognize that rescue mediumship does not entail interactions with non-human or malevolent entities. That type of engagement requires different skills. Rescue mediums also steer clear of the sensationalism often associated with paranormal investigations. Their focus remains consistently on healing and resolution, not spectacle.

This work is sensitive and should only be conducted by trained, ethical practitioners. The spirit world and the vulnerable souls that seek help deserve our deepest respect.

Every spirit rescued, every attachment cleared, and every energy healed illuminates not only the spirit world but our own lives as well. Rescue mediumship serves as a reminder of our interconnectedness, affirming that life continues beyond death and that divine love, grace, and compassion transcend all boundaries.

A rescue medium’s purpose is to guide spirits, educate the living, alleviate fear, and foster understanding. This sacred endeavor offers closure and tranquility, affirming that no one is ever truly lost.

Rescue mediumship is an extraordinary and impactful practice designed to communicate with lost or trapped spirits to aid them in achieving peace and progressing to the subsequent stage of their spiritual journey. This type of mediumship is frequently employed in situations where a soul finds itself ensnared in confusion, fear, or turmoil, hindering their ability to transition to the afterlife.

One fundamental manner in which rescue mediumship aids lost souls is by offering them guidance and support as they navigate the afterlife. Numerous souls who feel lost or trapped may not understand that they have passed away, or might be too distressed by their circumstances to seek the light. A rescue medium can assist these souls in understanding their situation while providing the reassurance and comfort necessary for them to release earthly attachments and move forward.

Moreover, rescue mediumship helps lost souls by eliminating any negative energies or entities that may be preventing them from transitioning out of their limbo state. Occasionally, souls may be hindered by unresolved trauma, guilt, or fear, which can manifest as heavy or dark energies that obstruct their progress. A rescue medium can work to dissipate these negative energies and establish a nurturing environment for the spirit to heal and let go.

In addition to providing guidance and purging negative energies, rescue mediumship can facilitate connections between lost souls and their loved ones on the other side. Many souls may hesitate to cross over due to concerns about leaving family and friends behind or because of unresolved feelings or unfinished business with their loved ones. A rescue medium can enable communication between the soul and their loved ones, allowing for goodbyes, forgiveness, or simply the closure required for them to move forward.

Overall, rescue mediumship serves as a powerful instrument for aiding lost souls in finding peace and closure. By offering guidance, clearing negative energies, and facilitating communication with loved ones, rescue mediums can support souls in releasing their earthly ties and transitioning to the next chapter of their spiritual journey with tranquility and grace.

The spirits of our departed ones occasionally interact with our tangible world to demonstrate their continued presence. They may rearrange items in our homes, such as keys, books, or decorative objects, particularly those that held sentimental value during their lives.

It is quite common for a beloved item to disappear from its rightful place, only to be rediscovered later in the most unexpected locations.

This type of spiritual activity tends to occur when we are reflecting on them, or during emotionally charged moments, serving as a comfort or affirming their presence. It is never arbitrary. It acts as a gentle reminder that their essence remains close by.

When I was about 20 years of age, I had an in-depth, personal session with a remarkable spiritualist medium whom I called Nan Lightfoot. My father learned about her through the nearby spiritualist church, and it turned out she was an elderly lady living just two blocks away from our home.

A lovely friendship quickly developed between us. I helped her with shopping and errands whenever possible, until I eventually departed England for an extended period.

After returning from grocery shopping and putting items away, Nan would brew us a cup of coffee. Throughout our numerous discussions, she would occasionally provide profound insights channeled from her spirit guides. Often, right amidst a regular conversation, she would unexpectedly switch from English to a broad Welsh dialect. These instances of Welsh conversations indicated that Nan was channeling a message from one of her ancestral guides.

Once you start discussing apports, you’ll be surprised at how many individuals recount experiences where items appeared in seemingly random spots, with no logical explanation for their presence ~ Chris Cliff

She would bow her head and recite something in Welsh, then abruptly cease. Coming out of her trance-like state with a bewildered look, she’d slowly roll her head before calmly delivering the English translation of her guide’s message.

During one of my initial channeling experiences with Nan Lightfoot, she mentioned a young spirit girl around me who identified herself as “Lali.” Nan explained how the little girl pointed towards a body of water and described her features in detail.

I instantly recognized who she was referring to. The girl had been my friend during my childhood in the Canary Islands. Like me, she was a lonely child from a show business family. Tragically, Lali drowned on the beach on Christmas Day, just before we left the Islands, and Nan indicated she had since connected with me.

However, what followed astonished me. Nan Lightfoot then shared, “Lali says she enjoys playing in your jewelry boxes.” I must confess I had often pondered why they were always in such disarray. The items would be tangled and messy, and being somewhat obsessive-compulsive about organization at that stage in my life, the chaos was perplexing. Now everything made sense. But it didn’t trouble me at all, as long as Lali was having fun!

A few years later, I considered that perhaps the trauma of Lali’s drowning and her attachment to me were hindering her from moving on. Thus, I worked on encouraging her to transition forward into the Light.

Apports were once a common occurrence in spiritualist séances, where mediums would produce flowers, fragrances, and bizarre objects claimed to be gifts from the present spirits ~ Lux Ferre

Apports Across Cultures & Spiritual Traditions

This captivating phenomenon holds longstanding cultural and spiritual importance across various belief systems globally. In these perspectives, the sudden and unexplained emergence of physical items is not merely a curiosity but a significant event interpreted as a direct form of communication from the spirit realm.

These items, often small and appearing ordinary, are seen as sacred gifts or symbolic messages. They serve to reassure the living of a loved one’s ongoing presence, signify a moment of spiritual awakening, or provide emotional closure. From ancestral offerings in indigenous customs to relic manifestations in religious mysticism, these occurrences have historically been honored as tangible expressions of the unseen, connecting the material world with realms beyond.

In Shamanic traditions across the Americas, Siberia, and parts of Africa, items such as stones, animal remains, or herbs are known to appear during rituals or healing ceremonies. These are interpreted as gifts from spirits, meant to assist in healing, divination, or convey messages from ancestral entities or nature spirits. In Afro-Caribbean spiritual practices like Santería or Vodou, items may manifest or be moved by spirits during rituals as part of offerings or messages from the orishas or ancestral spirits.

In Hinduism, instances of holy ash (vibhuti), sacred objects, or even food offerings cropping up during rituals or in the presence of advanced yogis are regarded as signs of divine intervention or blessings from deities. In Catholic mysticism, the sudden appearance or unprompted relocation of relics, rosaries, or objects associated with saints, sometimes during ecstatic experiences or at pilgrimage locations, is viewed as miraculous. Such apports are considered significant signs of divine presence or intervention.

In Spiritualism, this phenomenon is termed an apport. The term “apportation” denotes the spirit phenomenon where objects emerge, vanish, or relocate without any visible external cause. An object that appears or has been moved in this manner is termed an “apport.” Therefore, apports are items that materialize from thin air or are mysteriously relocated without being touched.

The word “apport” in spiritualism stems from the French term apporter, meaning “to bring.” One of the earliest documented instances of an apport occurred in 1819 during a séance attended by Dr. G. P. Billot. Midway through the meeting, a dove unexpectedly fluttered around the room and dropped three slips of paper, each inscribed with the name of a saint: St. Maxime, St. Sabine, and Many Martyrs. The occurrence was considered so momentous that it was recorded and subsequently published in 1839.

Apports gained traction during the height of spiritualism, particularly in Victorian-era séances. Physical mediums produced items like flowers, coins, or even live animals as evidence of spirit presence and communication. Famous mediums of the time, such as Daniel Dunglas Home and Eusapia Palladino, became well-known for their impressive physical mediumship demonstrations featuring apports. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle also extensively discussed this phenomenon.

In recent years, the topic of apports has largely waned among spiritualists and is not as frequently examined or analyzed as in prior times. Nevertheless, it remains a subject of interest for certain researchers and paranormal enthusiasts ~ Steve Parker

Research On Apport Phenomena

While apports are often linked to Victorian séances and ancient mysticism, contemporary research shows this phenomenon continues to captivate scientists, psychic investigators, and spiritual practitioners alike. Recently, a series of well-documented cases have emerged, demonstrating that apportation is not simply an ancient myth or deception, as is frequently assumed.

From controlled séance experiments to spontaneous materializations recorded by modern technology, these recent accounts provide compelling evidence that the spirit world’s capacity to influence matter is valid, though elusive.

Some of the most intriguing modern examinations of the apport phenomenon include:

Amyr Amiden (1993 – 1994)

Noted parapsychologist Stanley Krippner reported on the fascinating case of Brazilian psychic medium Amyr Amiden. Known for his knack for manifesting apports, Amiden participated in a series of controlled studies. During trance-like states, he produced small items such as gemstones, jewelry, coins, and medallions, often under rigorous observational guidelines.

What made these sessions particularly intriguing for researchers was not solely the spontaneous appearance of objects, but also the environmental anomalies linked to them. Krippner and his team documented unusual variations in the Earth’s magnetic field coinciding with several apport events. These geomagnetic variations, although subtle, hinted at a potential connection between changes in the electromagnetic landscape and the facilitation of paranormal events.

The Scole Experiments (1993 – 1998)

Carried out by David Fontana, Arthur Ellison, and Montague Keen in the UK, the Scole circle produced physical mediumship occurrences, including apports, direct voices, and materializations of objects. Researchers captured photographs, audio recordings, and claimed physical artifacts. Despite being contentious due to methodological objections, it remains one of the best-documented modern séances featuring apports.

Herbert Baumann (1965 – 1985)

Herbert Baumann, a German physical medium who operated under the alias “Jons Dave,” was meticulously studied by Illobrand von Ludwiger, a friend and direct observer of over 100 spirit apports. These apports were noted both during séances and in ordinary life.

Many of the stones he apported contained distinctive, unexplained internal crack formations that rendered them fragile and unlike any natural damage; this perplexed jewelers and scientists alike. Analyses failed to reproduce the unique crack patterns or thermal signatures of these items under controlled conditions.

Baumann’s apports often occurred in conjunction with trance states, poetic expressions from spirit communicators, and a noticeable warmth upon their arrival. Occasionally, items would show up in sealed containers, float in mid-air, or emerge from his body. Some seemed to be produced on request or appeared following specific requests from participants.

Jack Hunter

Dr. Jack Hunter, an anthropologist focused on the study of the paranormal, investigated modern mediumship for his Ph.D. His work Manifesting Spirits (2020) is a direct outcome of this research, centering on a private spiritualist group based in Bristol, UK.

Hunter applies meticulous and advanced methods to study these events, improving upon the documentation techniques used a century ago. His findings indicate that physical mediumship, where spirits produce tangible effects like knocking, moving items, and apports, is still actively practiced in private séances and circles around the world. The experiences reported are remarkably similar to those described by participants in the 1800s and early 1900s during the rise of spiritualism.

UPIDE Spontaneous Psychokinesis Case (2021 – 2022)

A notable modern case of apports was examined in Mexico City from 2021 to 2022. Researcher D’León Macías and the UPIDE group investigated a married couple who experienced the unexpected appearance of coins, medals, wilted flowers, and even apples in their residence. This is a classic indication of the apport phenomenon, which was once prevalent in 19th-century spiritualism.

The incidents predominantly centered around the husband but also occurred in the presence of the wife. To unravel the enigma, researchers equipped infrared cameras, conducted psychological and neurological assessments, consulted spiritual practitioners, and documented real-time footage of coins manifesting. This case exemplifies one of the few contemporary inquiries that fuses scientific exploration with spiritual insights into spontaneous spirit phenomena.

What exactly apports are remains uncertain. All that is known is that these items are as tangible as any material object can be. The origins of these objects are harder to identify ~ Jaime Licauco

How Spirit Manifests Messages Through Matter

A wealth of documentation exists regarding apports as signs, tokens, or mementos from the spirit realm. Shells, small keepsakes, fossils, coins, feathers, flowers, and even items previously misplaced by the participants can abruptly emerge from nowhere. These objects fit into several captivating categories:

Natural Objects: Flowers, leaves, pebbles, crystals, feathers, and even small birds or insects may appear as signs from the spirit world. These gifts act as gentle reminders from nature, imbued with spiritual significance.

Personal Items: These can be jewelry, tokens, or other significant objects associated with a deceased loved one. Their sudden return commonly represents a direct and heartfelt message that their spirit lingers nearby.

Symbolic Objects: Some items possess a unique, often private significance for the recipient. Although they may seem random or trivial to others, they carry profound symbolic meaning for the individual fortunate enough to encounter them. These objects can provide insight, affirmation, or emotional clarity.

Sacred / Ritual Objects: Apports may sometimes take on the form of spiritual or religious items such as prayer beads, crosses, or protective amulets. These are typically seen as signs of divine support or reassurance during moments of spiritual awakening or necessity.

Scent Apports (Clairolfaction): An inexplicable and sudden fragrance, such as that of a specific flower, their beloved perfume, or even the scent of cigarette smoke, may arise without a physical source. These aromas often represent the spirit’s signature or a means of announcing their presence.

Taste Apports (Clairgustance): This less common type of apport consists of an unanticipated taste in the mouth, often linked to a loved one’s favorite dish or a shared memory. These flavor impressions extend subtle comfort, connection, or emotional messages from beyond.

Even though public séances featuring dramatic apparitions and apports are less frequent today, the fundamental understanding of these spirit interactions remains both significant and valid. In modern households, the phenomenon of apports often surfaces in more nuanced ways. For example, one might rediscover a long-forgotten item or find a loved one’s gift in an unexpected location.

If you have encountered similar unexplained occurrences at home, the concept of apports provides a meaningful framework. It validates these events as authentic spiritual activity and can bring comfort, a sense of connection, or even a glimpse into the continuity of consciousness beyond this existence.

Apports, even when not directly experienced, remain a potent symbol within spiritualism. They illustrate the potential for spirits to influence the physical world and reflect the profound interconnectedness of all realms of existence.

The phenomena surrounding apports are not characterized by sensational displays, but rather by the quiet, significant moments of interaction between the spiritual and physical dimensions, often taking place within the private, sacred space of one’s home. They function as reminders that reality is continually evolving and that the spirit realm is always nearby, gently impacting our lives in invisible ways.

Animals are incredibly attuned to our emotions. They can detect the vibrations of our feelings and thoughts before we even verbalize them. Their psychic awareness transcends reason and ventures into the mystical.

I have always recognized that animals can perceive our thoughts and emotions in ways that humans have largely forgotten. There exists a quiet, profound wisdom in their gaze. They reveal an understanding that indicates they grasp far more than we often appreciate.

People from diverse cultures and spiritual traditions hold that animals enter our lives to teach, guide, and uplift us. They mirror our energy, challenge our patience, express unconditional love, and remind us to be present.

When we view it this way, our bond with animals appears as a sacred agreement of the soul, facilitating growth and learning for both sides.

This concept also appears in spirit animal or totem traditions, encompassed in numerous Indigenous and shamanic teachings.

Within these traditions, each animal signifies a specific form of wisdom or lesson that aligns with our personal learning needs. Observing animal behavior or noting which creatures appear in our dreams can uncover messages meant specifically for us. These connections aid us in understanding our true selves and remind us of our interconnectedness.

In Buddhism, particularly within the Mahayana tradition, there exists a belief that all living beings, including animals, are ensnared in the cycle of reincarnation. This belief nurtures profound compassion, as any animal may have once been a cherished being from a previous life. Witnessing the suffering of animals can deepen our empathy. Animals also instruct us on mindfulness, living in the present without attachment or anxiety. By nurturing them with kindness, we embark on spiritual growth and shed parts of our ego.

Animals can convey their thoughts quite effectively. And they certainly do. Generally, though, they are overlooked ~ Alice Walker

Hinduism teaches a similar notion that all life forms are interconnected. Like humans, animals traverse a journey through numerous lifetimes. Many Hindu deities possess sacred animals known as vahanas. These beings serve as spiritual companions embodying profound meanings. For example, Nandi the bull symbolizes devotion, while Ganesha’s mouse embodies the mind that seeks tranquility. The principle of ahimsa, or nonviolence, inspires us to treat all beings with love and respect. This perspective cultivates our inner peace and personal growth.

Esoteric teachings such as Theosophy and Anthroposophy provide a different yet equally beautiful view. They assert that, unlike humans, animals do not have individual, separate souls. Instead, they inhabit “group souls” shared across their species, representing varied stages of spiritual evolution. By observing animal behavior and recognizing patterns, we can learn much about ourselves. These teachings also suggest that our treatment of animals influences our own growth journey as we evolve collectively.

Despite animals not communicating verbally as we do, they express themselves powerfully through feelings, images, and thoughts transmitted via what many term telepathy. This form of connection comes naturally to them. They neither question nor rationalize it; they simply engage. Their senses are so perceptive that they catch details we often overlook. This subtle, heartfelt communication emphasizes the profound bond we share with them.

Rupert Sheldrake, a British biologist, has dedicated considerable time exploring the notion that animals possess telepathic capabilities. He focuses particularly on how cats and dogs seem to sense when their owners are returning home, even without any apparent indication.

In his book Dogs That Know When Their Owners Are Coming Home, Sheldrake recounts numerous real-life anecdotes of pets displaying this behavior. One famous instance involves a dog named Jaytee, who would position himself at the door at the precise moment his owner began heading back home, regardless of any changes to the schedule.

Sheldrake also examined other animals, including an African Grey parrot named Nkisi, who appeared to respond to its owner’s thoughts. He posits that telepathy is a natural phenomenon rather than paranormal and may have developed as a means for animals to maintain connections within their social groups.

They exist complete and fulfilled, endowed with sensory extensions we have lost or never known, guided by voices we shall never hear ~ Ed Yong

Consider, for instance, how animals respond to threatening situations. There is no rationale for a deer freezing in the glare of headlights or a cat bolting away from a vacuum cleaner. They react instinctively, overwhelmed by sensory stimuli, their response is sheer instinct. This very instinct allows them to engage with the energy surrounding them. They sense before they think.

I often observed this with my Husky mix. She would immediately panic at the sound of fireworks. Her reaction was instantaneous and visceral. If we did not ensure she remained inside, she would dart away at the explosive sounds. To her, it must have felt like a celestial assault. Loud, unpredictable, and terrifying.

During those moments, I learned not to utter phrases like “Don’t be afraid; it won’t harm you.” Animals do not interpret the words “don’t” or “won’t” in the same manner we do. They focus on the emotional signal words: “afraid” and “hurt.”

Rather than attempt to comfort her with phrases that might accidentally reinforce her anxiety, I focused on exuding calm energy. I visualized her as feeling secure, warm, and safe. I imagined her nestled in her bed, at ease. I concentrated on the sensation of safety and spoke reassuringly: “You are safe. It’s peaceful here. You are protected.”

This subtle change makes a significant impact. Animals are attuned to our emotional vibrations. If we project calming energy and focused thoughts, they can readily receive that communication.

In my readings, I occasionally assist clients in connecting with their pets, whether they are living or passed. Yet when it comes to my own pets, I prefer the insights of a trusted expert. There’s a profound comfort in having a skilled animal communicator or “pet psychic” affirm what I instinctively know in my heart.

When my cherished Rottweilers passed away several years back, I was heartbroken. However, during a session with a respected communicator, she relayed the distinct quirks and nuances of my girls and the small traits known only to me. It brought me immense comfort to sense their spirits still near, watching over, guiding, and loving from beyond this world.

We require a different, wiser, and perhaps more mystical understanding of animals… In a world older and more complete than our own, they exist finished and fulfilled, blessed with sensory extensions we have lost or never experienced, guided by voices we shall never know ~ Henry Beston

Animal communication transcends just our pets. It encompasses wild creatures as well. I’ve been encouraged to witness an increase in TV shows and documentaries that showcase animal communicators working in rehabilitation initiatives. You can observe the transformation in a traumatized animal’s gaze when they feel genuinely heard and understood. Many of these transformations are remarkable. Witnessing a formerly fearful and aggressive being soften into trust reveals the strength of a true soulful connection.

So, how can we nurture our animal companions on their journeys? First and foremost, we love them. We acknowledge their presence in our lives, recognizing that their spirits are as significant and evolved as our own. I once read that the love we offer our animals aids them in their evolution, just as their love supports our own growth. It’s a reciprocal connection deeply rooted in ancient soul agreements and spiritual purpose.

One day, we may grasp the intricate connections that bind us all—humans, animals, the Earth, and the cosmos. Until that time comes, we must persist in our trust. We communicate heart-to-heart with our animal companions, understanding that the language of love and spirit transcends words.

If you sense your pet is trying to convey something, they are likely making an effort. Sit quietly. Open your heart. Send them a thought, an image, or a feeling, and then be still. Listen. They will respond in their unique way. After all, they have always been attuned to us.

Animals have always been celebrated for their intuitive skills and insight. Many believe that animals have a psychic link to the surrounding world, which enables them to sense energies and vibrations often overlooked by humans. By harnessing this psychic insight, we can uncover valuable lessons and guidance that aid us in navigating our own paths.

A primary method to grasp the psychic insight animals offer is through tuning in. This process entails calming the mind, opening the heart, and connecting with the energy of the particular animal. Through this approach, you can obtain a deeper comprehension of their messages and insights.

Animals convey their thoughts in numerous ways, including body language, vocalizations, and energy. By being attuned to these signals and engaging with the animal’s energy, you can begin to understand the messages they are attempting to share. For instance, a dog might bark incessantly when it detects danger nearby, or a cat may purr happily when content and at ease.

To truly connect with the psychic wisdom of animals, it is essential to approach them with an open mind and heart. Animals are incredibly sensitive and can easily perceive your energy and intentions. By engaging with them with love and reverence, you can cultivate a robust connection that enables greater communication and comprehension.

One effective way to connect with animals’ psychic wisdom is through meditation and visualization. By calming the mind and concentrating on the animal’s energy, you can begin to receive insights and messages. Picture yourself establishing a profound connection with the animal and be open to receiving any guidance that comes forth.

Another method to access the psychic wisdom of animals is through keen observation. Notice their behaviors and actions, and endeavor to decipher what they might be attempting to communicate. For example, if a bird persistently flies into your window, it may be signaling for you to remain aware of your environment and to be more mindful in your actions.

Overall, connecting with the psychic wisdom of animals can serve as a powerful tool for procuring guidance and insight in your life. By engaging with animals with an open heart and mind and tuning into their energy and messages, you can tap into the profound wisdom they possess. So, the next time you encounter an animal, take a moment to tune in and uncover what messages they may wish to share with you. Continue reading →

Psychology offers essential tools for facing life’s obstacles. It aids in self-awareness and understanding others, enhances our communication, and forges stronger relationships. Whether addressing stress, enhancing emotional intelligence, or making wiser choices at work or home, psychological principles steer us towards healthier, more interconnected lives.

Nevertheless, there lies a deeper aspect of our existence that an exploration of the mind can’t completely uncover. While psychology analyzes causation and patterns, the soul engages in enduring, heartfelt connections that transcend intellectual discourse and analysis.

Psychology can clarify why we experience anxiety, how past traumas continue to impact us, and what coping mechanisms we are inclined to adopt. Such insights can ignite genuine transformation.

However, comprehension alone resides at an intellectual plateau. It doesn’t evoke the deeper truths and wisdom that enliven our spirits and connect us profoundly.

This is where ‘soul care,’ as opposed to mere analysis or therapy, presents an alternative journey.

Rather than perceiving ourselves and others as subjects of study, soul care beckons us to cherish all of our relationships — those of the past, present, and future, and even beyond this life — with warmth and continuity. It encourages us to view friends, family, mentors, and departed loved ones as conscious, everlasting entities worthy of celebration, not just dissection.

With all your science – can you tell how it is, and whence it is, that light comes into the soul? ~ Henry David Thoreau

Reflect on an educator who once motivated you, or a friend who supported you during tough times. Psychology may urge you to analyze their intentions or explore how your connection influenced your patterns. Soul care simply invites you to remember and recount their narrative — share in their humor, recall their idiosyncrasies, and cherish their kindness. By doing so, you incorporate them into the tapestry of your life, rendering their presence eternal.

Now visualize applying the same approach with loved ones who have passed away. For instance, psychology frequently interprets dreams of the deceased as memory processing or symbolic imagery. Soul care embraces these instances at face value, perceiving them as authentic messages from the spirit world.

When you sense a sudden caress, hear a recognizable voice in a dream, or have an unexpected memory surge, you accept it without doubt when you practice soul care. You acknowledge it as a gift or communication from the other side.

Instead of pondering, “What does last night’s visitation dream reveal about my subconscious mind,” you warmly welcome their presence and may even invite them back, simply as a chance to reconnect. You might light a candle, display a photo on an altar, or say their name aloud. In that straightforward act, your bond persists — and the soul finds its place within the ongoing current of this life and beyond.

No matter your belief system — be it organized religion, new age spirituality, shamanism, ancestral reverence, or simple curiosity — our interactions with spirit are calls to open your heart. They present themselves as songs stuck in your mind, scents that whisk you back in time, vivid dreams, or insights from a medium.

Our souls communicate in a language beyond human comprehension. A connection so rare that the universe won’t sever ~ Nikki Rowe

The entryway to these encounters lies in the intuitive heart center, rather than the analytical mind. When a sign manifests — whether grand or subtle — pause, breathe, and allow your inner awareness to surface. Take a moment to listen, and you’ll sense the veil between realms growing thin. Within that space, relationship supersedes understanding, and communion takes the place of diagnosis.

The soul’s journey unfolds as a continuous saga of relationships. Some manifest here in the physical realm; others traverse into the spirit world. We need not decipher every detail. Instead, we learn to trust the soul connections that shape us, transform us, and propel us forward.

Release the urge to comprehend everything. Open your heart to the unknown. Regard your relationships as serving the soul, rather than the reverse. In the interplay between the finite and the infinite — and in every silent exchange with souls here and beyond — you’ll discover what reason can never uncover: true communion is the soul’s enduring reality.

In a society that often values logic and reason above all, the idea of nurturing profound connections that transcend reason might appear foreign or even unattainable. Yet, many individuals affirm the strength of soul bonds – connections that extend beyond the physical and intellectual dimensions, reaching into something deeper and more meaningful.

Soul bonds are frequently characterized as connections between two people rooted in a profound understanding and resonance at a soul level. These links are thought to be forged through shared experiences, mutual respect, and an emotional connection that transcends time and space.

A fundamental aspect of nurturing soul bonds is the capacity to be vulnerable and open with another person. This involves sharing your authentic thoughts and feelings, no matter how difficult or uncomfortable. By engaging genuinely and transparently in your interactions, you cultivate a space where deep connection can thrive.

Empathy and compassion also play crucial roles in soul bonds. When you genuinely understand and empathize with another person’s emotions and experiences, you lay a strong foundation for a significant and meaningful connection. By offering compassion and support to each other, you establish a bond that is resilient and long-lasting.

Additionally, soul bonds necessitate a sense of reciprocity and mutual respect. Both parties in the relationship must be inclined to give and receive love, support, and understanding equally. By fostering balance and equality within the relationship, you can shape a bond that is strong and harmonious.

To nurture deep connections that surpass logic, it is essential to be present and mindful in your interactions. This entails being fully engaged and focused when you are with the other person, dedicating time to genuinely listen and appreciate their perspective. By maintaining presence and attentiveness, you can deepen your connection and foster intimacy and closeness.

Ultimately, cultivating soul bonds mandates a readiness to step beyond your comfort zone and embrace the unpredictable. By opening yourself to new experiences and connections, you create an environment for deep and meaningful relationships to flourish. By tending to these connections with care and intention, you can forge bonds that are truly transformative and life-altering. Continue reading →

Table turning, often referred to as “table tipping” or “table tilting,” is an intriguing method of spirit communication that takes place during séances.

This practice involves individuals positioning themselves around a table, lightly resting their hands on its surface to establish a connection with spirits. The table may then move, tilt, or, in extraordinary instances, float or rotate in reply to inquiries made to the spirit realm.

The phenomenon of table turning rose to fame in the mid-1800s, a period when Spiritualism was rapidly gaining traction across Europe and North America. People were captivated by the potential of reaching out to the afterlife, making séances a popular social event.

During that era, individuals lacked the resources or easy access to mediums and channelers available today. Small circles of family and friends would convene to engage with the spirit world.

Table turning was deemed an entertaining way to amuse guests at social functions and was even classified as a parlor game. Notably, Mary Todd Lincoln, the wife of President Lincoln, is said to have participated in and even organized séances in the White House.

Prominent spiritualists of the time, including the Laurie family and Nettie Colburn Maynard, reportedly joined the Lincolns during their séances. Mrs. Lincoln exhibited a profound interest in spiritualism and mediumship, especially following the deaths of her children, Edward and later Willie.

While accounts of table turning can be traced back to the second century, its surge in popularity during the 19th century is primarily linked to the renowned Fox family in Hydesville, New York. In 1848, reports of poltergeist activities led to strange knocking sounds and the movement of tables.

The applications of table tipping are diverse and rich, unveiling a magnificent world filled with potential — one where this connection with spirit benefits not just you but also those around you who may not even be present at the table ~ Teresa Lally

By the 1850s, table turning had become a widespread sensation in America, enthralling many, and in 1852, two American mediums, Mrs. Hayden and Mrs. Roberts, brought the practice to England.

Within a year, the activity gained tremendous popularity nationwide, leading to fashionable events known as “tea and table turning” parties. Even Queen Victoria and Prince Albert were reported to have attended table-turning séances.

However, there was a notable backlash from religious groups, with clergymen attributing the phenomenon to demonic forces and numerous scientists dismissing it as folly or deception.

Table Turning Skepticism & Research

Michael Faraday, a British scientist renowned for his groundbreaking work in electromagnetism, electrochemistry, and parapsychology, endeavored to apply scientific principles to investigate supernatural occurrences. He performed experiments on table turning and eventually concluded that the movements were the result of the ideomotor effect — unconscious muscular actions causing participants to push the table without being aware.

Yet, Faraday’s theory didn’t elucidate all observed cases. There have been documented instances of tables tilting and even floating without any physical contact. A notable incident was recorded in 1853 in Valleyres, Switzerland, where Count Agenor de Gasparin, a French scholar and paranormal researcher, chronicled a heavy table’s remarkable movements without any direct touch. Even when bags of sand and heavy stones were placed on it, it lifted multiple times before ultimately disintegrating.

The subsequent year, Marc Thury, a physics professor at the University of Geneva and a colleague of Gasparin, conducted his own investigations. Thury reported observing a piano move seemingly on its own, attributing the occurrence to psychokinetic forces from a young boy nearby, who lacked the strength or opportunity to move the piano himself.

In 1869, the London Dialectical Society formed several committees consisting of scientists, clergymen, and laypeople to examine spiritualist phenomena like table turning and spirit communication. Sub-Committee No. 1 specifically documented various instances of table movements and levitation occurring without any physical contact. Some initial skeptics among committee members converted to believers after witnessing the phenomena with their own eyes.

Further evidence was recorded in the early 20th century. Mediums like Indridi Indridason from Iceland and Kathleen Goligher from Ireland were subjects of thorough scientific studies, with numerous observers reporting remarkable and unexplained table movements during their séances.

As recently as the 1970s, researchers such as Kenneth Batcheldor and Colin Brookes-Smith executed experiments demonstrating that tables could move under regulated conditions — some even soaring several feet into the air! Their findings remain a significant aspect of parapsychological research history.

Then the table commenced rising from the ground, reaching a height of about twelve to eighteen inches, remaining suspended and perfectly level. We were permitted … to enter beneath the clasped hands of the sitters into the circle and attempt to force the table down. We both found it impossible to do so ~  William Barrett

How To Conduct A Table Turning Séance

Preparation: Creating the right atmosphere is key. Arrange your table in a serene, dimly lit space devoid of distractions. Employ candlelight or soft illumination to foster a tranquil, welcoming environment. Soft music or incense may also enhance the ambiance.

Gathering: Organize a setting around a fitting table, such as a card table or small wooden table. Table turning is most effective with a small group containing at least two and no more than seven participants. Everyone should approach the session with openness, calmness, and focus. Lightly place your fingertips on the table’s surface — avoid pressing down. Keep your arms relaxed to create a gentle and connected energy flow.

In my experience, every table moves — regardless of size, yet I believe a wooden pedestal table works best. Initially, I used an ornate antique for my first table. After an extensive search and investment of time and resources, I realized that antiques were not practical for teaching table turning classes. One day, while shopping for Christmas decorations, I stumbled upon several cute little wooden octagonal pedestal tables offered at a very reasonable price — just the right dimensions for comfortable use. They work wonderfully.

Invocation: Commence with a brief grounding and protection prayer, meditation, or ritual, such as envisioning a circle of light or an energy shield, calling on spirit guides or ancestors, or surrounding yourself with a protective circle of angels. It’s crucial to acknowledge that all types of spirits may wish to communicate, so seek only the highest, most beneficial insights for everyone present. Dedicate a few minutes to silence or guided meditation to elevate the group’s energy.

Invitation: Ideally, designate one individual to speak for the group. Invite the spirit to step forward and communicate. Keep the invitation clear, respectful, and aligned with your intention. Maintain stillness, attentiveness, and patience.

Activation: Initially, you may perceive a tapping or knocking sound. With time and patience, the table may start to feel vibratory and begin to move gradually. Eventually, it might rock, tap, or lift from one side. Sometimes people find it necessary to stand to keep pace with it. It could engage in a little dance or even traverse the room — with the group closely trailing to maintain contact with the table. If needed, you can ask the table to settle down. Most spirits are eager to oblige and get to work, although some may require several requests.

It may take a few minutes or multiple sessions to stimulate spirit activity, so it’s essential to exercise patience. Sustain a high energy level and steer clear of doubt or distraction. Always prioritize the emotional and energetic safety of all participants.

Communication: Once the table’s activity has stabilized, set communication guidelines, such as, “Spirit, please tilt the table once for yes, twice for no.” Pose clear, respectful inquiries. Observe and be attuned to the table’s movement responses. Avoid coercion — table movement should emerge organically and not be forced.

You might also circulate around the table to determine with whom the spirit wishes to communicate. Occasionally, the table will instinctively move toward that person without being prompted! Once it’s ascertained who the spirit is engaging with, the dialogue can commence. The participant might inquire, “Are you my grandmother?” or even name a relative, friend, or a cherished pet, etc. It’s also valuable to jot down a few questions from each attendee prior to initiating the session.

Closing: Conclude the session by expressing gratitude to the spirit and disbanding the circle respectfully and calmly. Initially, keep sessions brief (not exceeding 20 to 30 minutes).

I’ve had many remarkable experiences with table tipping. The table can move in various ways — lifting an inch off the floor, swaying, and sometimes even going fully upright. While I’ve yet to see a tabletop fall, we’ve observed tables coming loose or developing cracks from all the paranormal activity. (Not an ideal situation for antiques!)

Occasionally, the table will gently tip into a sitter’s lap. I like to think of this as a “spirit hug.” It can evoke strong emotions. Sitters may laugh or cry, but more often, they feel grateful for having witnessed this extraordinary phenomenon.

I’ve even been fortunate enough to join a group of medium friends at a historic table that once belonged to the esteemed spiritualist Harrison D. Barrett. He was a pivotal figure in the Spiritualist community of the 1800s and served as President of the National Spiritualist Association of Churches (NSAC) in both the United States and Canada. His aim was to establish Spiritualism as a legitimate religious philosophy, merging scientific exploration with spiritual beliefs.

Exploring the Captivating Phenomenon of Table Turning

Table turning, also termed table tipping or table tilting, is a captivating phenomenon that has fascinated and mystified individuals for ages. This practice involves a table being moved or tipped without any discernible physical force acting upon it. While some dismiss it as mere trickery or deception, others regard it as a genuine paranormal event. In this discussion, we will delve into the history, theories, and possible insights surrounding this captivating phenomenon.

Historical Overview of Table Turning:

Table turning gained traction during the 19th century as part of the spiritualist movement. Spiritualism emerged as a belief system in the mid-1800s, emphasizing the notion that the living could establish communication with the spirits of the departed. Table turning became a standardized practice during séances, where individuals gathered around a table, placed their hands upon it, and endeavored to communicate with spirits.

The Phenomenon Unfolded:

During a typical table turning session, participants usually form a circle around a table, lightly resting their hands on its surface. They then pose questions or make requests to the spirits, anticipating a response. In some instances, the table may exhibit vibrations, movement, or even levitation. The motions are frequently described as gentle, but they can also be vigorous and rapid at times.

Theories and Possible Explanations:

1. Ideomotor Effect: One of the prevalent explanations for table turning is the ideomotor effect. This psychological phenomenon indicates that unintentional muscle movements can ensue without conscious awareness. When participants touch the table, subconscious desires or anticipations may trigger slight movements, giving the appearance of the table moving.

2. Group Psychology: Another theory posits that table turning arises from group psychology and suggestion. When people congregate around a shared belief in the paranormal, they may unconsciously affect one another’s actions. This collective energy can manifest as table movement.

3. Supernatural or Spiritual Explanation: Some advocates of table turning assert that the phenomenon is authentically supernatural or spiritual in nature. They believe that spirits or otherworldly beings are behind the movements. However, this argument remains speculative and subjective due to a lack of solid proof.

4. Physical Forces: Skeptics often attribute table turning to physical factors such as vibrations, uneven surfaces, or subtle air currents. These elements can cause the table to shift or tip, presenting an illusion of paranormal activity. Nonetheless, this reasoning fails to account for scenarios wherein the table moves against gravity or when numerous observers witness the event.

In Summary:

Table turning continues to intrigue and captivate individuals globally. Whether a result of psychological factors, group dynamics, or authentic paranormal activity, the phenomenon remains a topic of debate and fascination. While skeptics may regard it as mere mental trickery, others find themselves drawn to the potential for connecting with the unknown. Regardless of personal beliefs, table turning serves as a testament to the enduring mysteries that inhabit our world, awaiting exploration and understanding. Continue reading →

Do pets come back in new forms? As someone who loves animals and has pets, I think they do!

Renowned psychic medium John Edward shared a story about his dog appearing to him in a dream posthumously. The dog reportedly mentioned he would come back as the new dog “with the black spot.”

Shortly thereafter, Edward visited a friend who had recently welcomed a litter of puppies. He immediately connected with one puppy that followed him all around. Yet, oddly enough, none of the puppies had a black spot? Edward’s wife captured photos of him with the puppy because she sensed a strong bond, yet they left without choosing any of the puppies.

When the photos were later developed, a black spot was visible in one of them! This black spot appeared over the puppy he felt a special connection to. Without hesitation, Edward returned and adopted his cherished “new” dog.

A friend of mine owned a dog named Inky, who was entirely white with a distinctive dark spot on his back. Inky had a vibrant personality and accompanied her on her daily walks until she directed him to “go home.” After he passed away unexpectedly, my friend was heartbroken, spending days lying on the floor, sobbing in a fetal position.

<pMonths later, she walked past a pet store and spotted a bunny that bore an uncanny resemblance to Inky. It was all white with that same unique ink pattern on its back. My friend decided to adopt the rabbit, who exhibited all of Inky's mannerisms, following her to work until she instructed, “Bunny, go home.”

Losing a companion animal is never simple. However, knowing they may come back to us provides hope. This is one of the beautiful aspects of reincarnation ~ Linda Roberts

I adopted my first cat from a shelter. She grasped my leg with her claws as I walked by, which I took as a sign. When I held her, I felt an immediate bond. When I inquired about her name, I was astonished to learn it was my own birth name! I had never encountered an animal with that name before. It felt like another sign.

This cat and I shared a distinctive relationship that drew the notice of family and friends. We held full conversations. I would say, “Boo, you can’t go outside right now; there’s a frightening dog out there.” Then she would counter in a demanding manner, “Meep, meep, meep.”

I’d restate my point, and she would persist, continuing to debate with me. Eventually, she would relent, “meeping” down the hall, clearly annoyed. I would tell her, “I love you, Boo.” And in response, she would reply with a soft, low “meowwwwwww,” filled with affection.

She survived for 17 years, clinging to life as long as she could. Her passing was hard, as the vet who visited my home attempted repeatedly to euthanize her, but it didn’t take effect. I sensed she wanted to remain with me, and I wished for her to stay, but I told her it was time to go. Her body had simply given out, and she could no longer stand.

After a few months of waiting to ensure she had the chance to return, I adopted two lovely cats. Yet, neither felt like my Boo. While the adoption worker was processing my paperwork, another kitten somehow escaped his cage and climbed up my back. He was black like Boo. I informed the adoption worker that I was also taking him home. Instantly, I knew he was my Boo kitty.

This little black cat was only five weeks old and very ill. Despite my vet’s urging not to spend any money on him, what she didn’t know was that I practiced energy work. She indicated his chances of survival were slim due to multiple health issues and being weaned too early.

It required significant expenditure and numerous energy healing sessions, but my black kitten is now a healthy 14-year-old cat. It was challenging for Boo to return so soon, impacting his immune system, but he is now robust and thriving.

From my experience, when a soul connects with a beloved pet, that pet is often willing to communicate with you about whether staying as spirit is most beneficial for both of you or if reincarnating is the better option ~ Shannon Cutts

Indicators of a Reincarnated Pet

Many individuals mention specific signs or experiences indicating their pet has returned in a new form. Below are some frequently reported indicators:

Distinctive Quirks: If your new pet exhibits behaviors or traits that were exclusive to your previous pet. For instance, if your former dog had a unique reaction style or your cat had a favorite resting place, and your new pet mirrors these, it is often a sign.

Response to Commands or Signals: The new pet reacts to commands or cues that they have never been taught, particularly those familiar to the previous pet. This could suggest a continuation of the older pet’s training or knowledge.

Immediate Connection: A strong bond forms instantly between the new pet and the owner. If you experience a profound sense of familiarity or connection with a new pet that reflects what you felt for a past pet, this could be a sign.

Physical Resemblances: Occasionally, people notice that a new pet shares similar physical traits or health issues with the prior pet. While these may simply be coincidences, some view them as signs of reincarnation. Others claim they can see the essence of their former pet when gazing into the eyes of the new pet, feeling a deep sense of familiarity or the sense that the old pet’s spirit is looking back at them.

Unexplained Recognition: If a new pet appears to instinctively know their way around your home, as if they are familiar with it or recognize favorite areas, this can be seen as a sign. They might gravitate to the same resting spots or habits that your former pet favored.

Serendipitous Events: Those peculiar ‘coincidences,’ like discovering a new pet in a location that had meaning to the previous one, or a series of events that guide you to the new pet. The timing of a new pet’s arrival can also be impactful, such as when a new pet enters your life around the anniversary of your previous pet’s passing or if the new pet was born near the time of the prior pet’s death.

Visitation Dreams: Many report dreaming of their departed pet appearing to them, often delivering a message or offering reassurance. Dreaming of your old pet shortly before or after meeting a new companion is highly significant.

Spirit Presence: Sensing the spirit of the old pet even after its departure, which then seems to transfer to the new pet. These experiences may include feeling the pet’s presence in the room, hearing familiar sounds, or experiencing a comforting aura.

The blessing of a reborn pet is a profound gift, a testament to the lasting bond between souls. It represents a rare and mystical experience that offers tremendous comfort, as if the universe has provided a second chance to enjoy the love and companionship once experienced.

This remarkable connection serves as a reminder of the deep, eternal bonds that go beyond physical existence and offers renewed joy, healing, and the opportunity to once more cherish the spirit of a cherished friend who has returned.

Uncover the Incredible Gift of a Reborn Pet

Pets have eternally occupied a cherished role in our lives. They bring joy, companionship, and unconditional love to our everyday existence. But what if it were possible to have a pet that never ages, never falls ill, and never departs from our lives? Welcome to the realm of reborn pets, a remarkable gift that enables us to experience the pleasures of pet ownership in an entirely new light.

Reborn pets, often referred to as reborn dolls or reborn animals, are stunningly lifelike replicas of actual pets. These dolls are carefully crafted by talented artists who utilize various painting techniques, sculpting methods, and even hair rooting to create an astonishingly realistic appearance. The meticulous attention to detail is remarkable, with every tiny feature painstakingly recreated to reflect the unique traits of the chosen pet.

One of the most extraordinary aspects of reborn pets is their capacity to offer comfort and companionship to those who cannot care for a live animal due to allergies, living arrangements, or other factors. Reborn pets provide a lifelike presence that can alleviate feelings of loneliness while imparting a sense of purpose and responsibility. They can serve as a source of emotional support, particularly beneficial for individuals grappling with anxiety, depression, or other mental health challenges.

For those mourning the loss of a cherished pet, a reborn pet serves as a poignant healing tool. The sorrow from losing a pet can be overwhelming, and the vacuum left by their absence can be profound. A reborn pet can help bridge that gap, offering a tangible representation of the pet we once loved. It allows us to hold, cuddle, and care for our beloved companion once more, fostering a sense of closure and healing.

Reborn pets also provide a unique avenue for those who may be unable to own a real pet for various reasons. Some individuals face allergies or reside in buildings where pets are prohibited. Others might have physical limitations that hinder their ability to adequately care for a genuine pet. Reborn pets offer solutions to these dilemmas, granting people the joy of pet ownership free from practical constraints.

Additionally, reborn pets can be beneficial tools for therapy and education. They are frequently used in nursing homes, hospitals, and educational institutions to deliver comfort and companionship to individuals across all age groups. Reborn pets can help evoke memories, stimulate communication, and promote emotional health. They also serve as educational aids, teaching children about responsibility, compassion, and the significance of caring for animals.

While reborn pets may not cater to everyone’s preferences, they undeniably bring a remarkable gift to those who choose to welcome them into their lives. Whether providing comfort and companionship, aiding in the healing process following a pet’s loss, or presenting a distinctive approach to pet ownership, reborn pets possess the ability to touch our hearts and enhance our lives in previously unimaginable ways. Thus, if you’re seeking a fresh perspective on the joys of pet ownership, consider embracing the extraordinary gift of a reborn pet. Continue reading →

Our shared experience lies in our dreams. Even if they escape our recollection, we dream each night.

Our dreams transport us to peculiar, surreal environments and situations — extraordinary places and bizarre occurrences that defy the norms of the conscious world. This is because dreams do not adhere to logic or common sense. They convey meanings through symbols, metaphors, and abstractions.

For centuries, humanity has endeavored to unravel the mysteries of dreams, from the interpretations etched in ancient Egyptian papyrus manuscripts to the psychoanalytic theories proposed by Carl Jung. Jung posited that dreams communicate through archetypes — universal symbols embedded in the tapestry of our collective unconscious.

Just as every individual is unique, so too are dreams distinct. Certain symbols — like water representing emotion or flying signifying freedom — recur across various cultures, yet their meanings are intimate, influenced by our personal experiences, beliefs, and feelings.

Some dreams elevate our spirits, while others perplex or even disturb us. But what do they signify?

Psychologists perceive dreams as a conduit between the conscious and subconscious mind, a method for processing emotions, addressing inner conflicts, and making sense of existence. Beyond their psychological dimensions, dreams also hold a more profound, often overlooked, mystical significance.

Numerous spiritual traditions regard dreams as gateways to other realms, messages from the divine, or even glimpses of past lives or future events. In dreams, the conventional boundaries of time and space dissolve, allowing us to receive wisdom, connect with spirit entities, or access concealed knowledge.

The dream is a small concealed door in the most profound and secret corners of the soul ~ Carl Jung

Whether you interpret dreams as psychological enigmas or mystical voyages, one truth remains — they unveil significant insights about our identities and our ties to something more expansive.

Dreams As Spiritual Messages

A multitude of individuals share experiences of receiving significant messages from departed loved ones, finding solace in dreams that provide closure or assurance. Others have interactions with enigmatic entities or elevated intelligences that offer insight, caution, or motivation.

Although science may not entirely account for these occurrences, countless individuals throughout history have avowed the profoundly transformative influence of such dreams. Historically, dreams have been perceived as divine messages guiding those who undergo them towards heightened awareness.

Ancient civilizations like the Egyptians and Greeks frequently consulted dream oracles and temples, where individuals would sleep in sacred locations seeking wisdom. Indigenous cultures worldwide acknowledge dreams as powerful spiritual navigation tools, often viewing them as direct communications from ancestors or spiritual beings steering cultural practices, laws, and traditions.

In Australian Indigenous spirituality, for instance, the notion of Dreamtime asserts that dreams connect us to the spiritual dimension. Dreamtime tales narrate the world’s creation, bridging the past, present, and future.

Among the Lakota Sioux Native Americans, Black Elk, a venerated spiritual figure, allegedly experienced profound visions he later recounted. At the age of nine, he dreamt of spirit guides who unveiled symbols of unity and harmony for his people. His vision became foundational in Lakota spirituality, symbolizing collective healing and renewal.

In Judeo-Christian traditions, dreams hold significant roles. A well-known account is that of Joseph in the Book of Genesis. Joseph interprets the Pharaoh’s dreams, predicting seven years of abundance followed by seven years of famine. Guided by this divine insight, Egypt prepares for famine, saving numerous lives. This highlights the belief that dreams can offer divine direction for governance and survival.

Within the Buddhist context, Queen Maya, the mother of Siddhartha Gautama (the future Buddha), had a notable dream prior to his birth. She envisioned a white elephant bearing a lotus flower entering her side, a symbol interpreted by sages as a divine portent heralding the arrival of a great spiritual leader. This dream is recognized as a pivotal instance, heralding the emergence of the Buddha and his teachings.

The ancient Hindu scriptures, the Upanishads, also delve deeply into the spiritual implications of dreams. In the Mandukya Upanishad, dreams are depicted as one of the states of consciousness alongside waking, deep sleep, and the ultimate transcendent state (turiya). Dreams are perceived as a bridge between the physical world and the inner self, offering glimpses into the divine essence of existence and the truth of the soul (Atman).

Dreams reveal how to discover meaning in our lives, how to achieve our unique destiny, and how to realize the larger potential of life within us ~ Marie-Louise Von Franz

Dreaming About The Future

Precognitive dreams are those that seemingly forecast future occurrences or situations prior to their manifestation. These dreams frequently contain vivid imagery, symbols, or scenarios that resonate with later real-life events. Across cultures, such dreams have been viewed as significant, whether as warnings, guidance, or divine interventions.

Some precognitive dreams tend to evoke heightened urgency or discomfort. Those that concern some of my clients most significantly are the precognitive dreams that seem to predict ominous future events. They may envision a dear one in distress or revisit a location from years past, only to encounter a similar occurrence in reality.

From my observations, these dreams don’t always deliver predictions with absolute certainty. More often, they mirror subconscious awareness of underlying energies or worries. It’s essential to approach these dreams with discernment.

For instance, a dream depicting a child drowning does not necessarily indicate an actual drowning will occur. Instead, it could represent feelings of being overwhelmed, loss of control, or emotional distress. Should you later observe a similar image in your waking life, it may act as a prompt to be vigilant, take preventive measures, or confront unresolved emotions.

Whether these dreams offer glimpses of the future or reflect profound intuition, they serve as reminders of how our subconscious often recognizes more than we consciously perceive.

Nightmares can similarly serve as a mechanism for the subconscious to address fears and anxieties. Rather than interpreting them as warnings of misfortune, consider them messages urging you to confront and resolve internal conflicts. Facing these fears in everyday life can often lead to the cessation of recurring nightmares.

You may notice recurring dreams of a similar situation but with slight shifts. Observing these changes can reveal personal development or evolving circumstances. Our world is “energy in motion,” as Jung articulated, and the future is never predetermined. This concept is beautifully illustrated in Star Wars when Master Yoda cautions young Luke Skywalker, “Always in motion is the future.” He was indeed correct! Dreams showcase this fluidity, presenting potential futures based on current energies instead of fixed outcomes.

A recurring dream of feeling trapped may evolve into one of discovering an escape route — a manifestation of empowerment and new solutions in your waking life. These dreams function as guides, nudging you towards necessary changes across relationships, career paths, or personal evolution.

Unusual Forms Of Dreaming

As your ability to grasp your dreams improves, you might start experiencing lucid dreams — vivid states in which you realize you are dreaming and can influence the course of the dream. This phenomenon is a remarkable avenue for self-exploration, permitting direct interaction with your subconscious.

Another profound experience is astral projection or out-of-body experiences (OBEs), where the dreamer feels as though they have left their physical form and are traversing different dimensions. Many report encounters with spiritual guides, visiting past or future realities, or even gaining insights into the essence of existence itself. While such experiences can happen spontaneously, they can also be nurtured through dedicated practice, meditation, and journaling.

Like the moon reflecting the hidden shine of the sun, our dreams disclose the unseen forces that shape our lives and push us towards deeper comprehension and growth. Whether they act as bearers of self-reflection, glimpses of future possibilities, or profound spiritual journeys, dreams constitute a vital part of the human experience.

Decoding Your Dreams

How can you interpret your confusing or cryptic dream landscape? The most effective method is to maintain a dream journal. By placing a dedicated notebook by your bedside, you can document your dreams immediately upon waking, capturing details before they fade away. Over time, trends will arise, revealing themes, symbols, and even recurring dream scenarios that hold significance for you.

Beyond journaling, meditation and self-reflection serve as powerful mechanisms to enhance recollection and interpretation of dreams. If you meditate during your waking life, you may notice recurring dream imagery surfacing in moments of stillness. This connection between meditation and dreamwork implies that both states tap into the same deeper consciousness.

Although dream dictionaries and symbolism books can provide direction, they should not be regarded as absolute authorities. Ultimately, only you can genuinely comprehend what your dreams signify. A black cat in a dream might symbolize mystery or intuition for one individual, while for someone else, it may evoke memories of a childhood pet and feelings of nostalgia.

The essential factor is to trust your instincts and individual associations. Just as dreams portray universal archetypes, they also encompass deeply personal symbols that only the dreamer can fully comprehend.

If you seek deeper understanding and guidance regarding your dreams, obtaining a reading from a psychic or medium well-versed in dream interpretation can be an enriching experience. Unlike typical dream dictionaries that provide generic meanings, a skilled psychic can attune to your unique symbols, emotions, and messages, illuminating their personal significance. A dream psychic may also connect with your ancestors, spirit guides, or loved ones in spirit to offer further clarity on what your subconscious—or higher self—is striving to communicate.

Whether your dreams feel puzzling, disconcerting, or immensely significant, a reading focused on dreams can assist you in piecing together their veiled messages and comprehending their relevance to your life, development, and spiritual journey.

By keeping a dream journal, recognizing patterns, and relying on your intuition, you can unlock the profound meanings behind your dreams. The realm of dreams holds infinite possibilities.

I have a deep passion for animals. Since I was young, I have had the joy of sharing my life and home with various cats and dogs. These treasured friends have brought immense happiness, unwavering love, and numerous fond memories into my life.

Yet, pet owners understand the heart-wrenching sorrow that comes with the loss of a beloved animal. Bidding farewell to a furry companion can be one of the most heart-rending moments one endures.

Through my practice in energy healing and mediumship, I have acquired profound knowledge about what occurs with animals posthumously. My aim is to provide solace and clarity to those mourning the loss of a pet.

In my experiences communicating with spirit animals, I have discovered that most pets remain in close proximity to their human guardians after they pass away. This phase can extend for days, weeks, or even months.

Many animal spirits linger near their former homes, still connected to the familiar energy of their human family. For them, the notion of death isn’t as sudden or definitive as it is for us. They often do not immediately recognize that they exist outside of physical bodies.

I frequently advise clients who are mourning a pet to carve out serene moments in their household to enhance their spiritual sensitivity. By taking time to slow down and embrace mindful stillness, many individuals notice delicate signs of their departed pet’s essence.

Over the years, clients have shared astonishing accounts of hearing their lost companion’s distinctive bark or meow, feeling the gentle pressure of their pet nestled beside them, or hearing the soft sounds of paws on the floor. Some have even reported hearing their pet’s collar jingle or the scratching at the door that was part of their daily routine.

Such signs are more prevalent than one might assume, often serving as a means through which the animals offer comfort and assurance during the initial phases of the transition.

The Adjustment Period

In the early stages of adjustment, animal souls frequently navigate between the earthly realm and the spirit world. This slow transition aids in softening the change, rendering it less jarring and traumatic for them.

However, in contrast to earthbound human souls, animals do not dwell on anxiety or resistance during this transition. They are not ensnared. Their transition primarily revolves around adapting to their new state of non-corporeal existence.

Ultimately, most pet souls receive gentle guidance in completing their transition from a familiar spirit — often a deceased family member of the pet owner or another animal companion from the same household who passed away prior. This guidance is caring and supportive, ensuring they feel secure as they advance into the light.

Once they cross, they reunite with Source, merging with the vast, nurturing energy from which we all emerge. Yet, even in this unified essence, they can separate their consciousness to reconnect with us whenever called upon or when we ourselves cross over. I often liken this to withdrawing a cup of water from the ocean: while the water returns to the expanse, it can always be drawn up again.

One of the most beautiful elements of animal spirit communication is how they choose to manifest to us. When we are ready to transition, our pets often are among the first to welcome us. They typically present in the form we remember, embodying the familiar appearance, feel, and personality that we loved.

Occasionally, however, they may manifest as orbs of light or energetic impressions rather than full apparitions. Regardless of their form of manifestation, there is always an unmistakable sense of recognition and unconditional love that transcends the requirement for physical presence.

The Reincarnation of Cherished Pets

Many contemplate whether their cherished pet will return in this lifetime as a new being. Based on my experiences, the answer is frequently affirmative. Animals do reincarnate, and it is quite common for them to return to the same human family they once loved.

They may even come back resembling their former selves — often as the same breed or with similar markings. They could also return in a different guise, perhaps as a different breed, size, or even species. A cherished dog may reincarnate as a cat or vice versa, bringing with them a familiar energy that their humans instinctively recognize.

The simple thought of our departed pets can invite their energy back into our surroundings. Moments of remembrance often align with feelings of their presence nearby, whether through a sudden warmth, a brief image, or an unexpected sound that ignites their memory.

The Cat That Came to Visit

Years ago, unbeknownst to me, a close friend lost her cat due to a brain tumor. I later discovered that the loss was especially traumatic for her because, in her disorientation, the cat had unintentionally harmed my friend during her last days.

Even though I was living across the country and unaware of her cat’s passing, I had an extraordinary experience the day after the cat’s death. While in my yard, I suddenly spotted the spirit of her cat —looking just as she had in life.

The cat’s message was unmistakable: she wanted my friend to know she was at peace and bore no grudges from their final moments together. I reached out to my friend to provide her with the comfort she desperately needed.

The cat made a visit to me that day and then departed, her mission of love and reassurance fulfilled.

Experiencing the loss of a pet is profoundly emotional, leaving a significant void in our lives. Yet, the connection we share with our animal companions transcends physical boundaries. Our pets remain eternally bonded to us by a love that time nor death can sever. Their spirits persist in embracing us, offering their unconditional love, innocence, and calming presence from the other side.

While parting can be agonizing, it is crucial to remember that this separation is temporary. Our beloved animals remain with us in spirit, guiding us, comforting us, and patiently awaiting the day we are reunited. In the interim, they continue to remind us of the sheer beauty of love — a love that is pure, steadfast, and everlasting.

So, when you mourn the loss of a cherished pet, take solace in knowing that they are never truly gone. They exist within every serene moment, every treasured memory, and every flicker of unconditional love that touches your heart. And one day, when the time is right, they will be there to greet you once again, tails wagging, eyes sparkling, and hearts eternally connected to yours.

The Destiny of Our Pets When They Depart

Experiencing the loss of a cherished pet is an incredibly challenging ordeal for any pet owner. Our animals integrate into our families, bringing us unconditional love, companionship, and joy. When they leave us, it’s only natural to be curious about their fate and what occurs thereafter. In this article, we will delve into the various choices available to pet owners when their furry friends transition over the rainbow bridge.

One of the most prevalent choices many pet owners make is to inter their pets in a pet cemetery or on their own land. Pet cemeteries offer designated areas for animals to be laid to rest, frequently featuring serene surroundings and memorial opportunities. Many pet cemeteries even have sections specifically set aside for different animal types, ensuring that each pet is honored with dignity. Burying a pet at home is also a favored option, as it enables owners to keep their pets close and create a personal memorial setting.

Cremation is another route that numerous pet owners select. With cremation, the pet’s body is respectfully incinerated, and the ashes are returned to the owner. This allows pet owners to keep their pets’ remains in an urn or scatter them in a meaningful place. Some pet crematories also provide communal or group cremations, where multiple pets are cremated together, with the ashes scattered in a designated area. This choice is often more economical for owners who may not wish to keep the ashes but still desire to honor their pet’s memory.

For those inclined toward environmentally conscious options, there are eco-friendly burial choices available. These alternatives emphasize natural decomposition, returning the pet’s body to the earth with minimal environmental impact. Some eco-friendly options include burial in biodegradable caskets or using natural burial grounds designed specifically for pets. These methods allow the pet’s body to decompose naturally, enriching the soil and supporting plant and tree growth.

In recent times, there has been a surge in pet afterlife services and memorialization options. Some pet owners find solace in believing that their pets persist in some form after death. Pet afterlife services might include mediums or psychics who claim to establish communication with deceased pets, offering closure and comfort to grieving owners. Furthermore, various memorialization options exist, such as personalized pet portraits, jewelry containing pet ashes, or even creating dedicated online memorial pages to celebrate and remember the pet.

Ultimately, the fate of our pets when they pass away is dependent on the decisions made by the pet owner. Each option comes with its own advantages and considerations, and it is vital for pet owners to select the path that aligns with their beliefs, values, and individual circumstances. Whether opting for a traditional burial, cremation, eco-friendly alternative, or memorial service, the key point is to honor and remember our pets in a manner that brings comfort and peace throughout the grieving journey.

To sum up, the destiny of our pets when they depart rests in our hands. From traditional burial practices to cremation, eco-friendly choices, and pet afterlife services, there are various avenues available to pet owners. The most important aspect is selecting a method that enables us to pay tribute and remember our cherished pets, providing solace and closure during the challenging time of their passing.
