The Peanut Gallery

Quite often when a group of spirits show up for a client's session, they are full of opinions ---sometimes differing, sometimes humorous --- regarding the people and situations around a client.

When this happens, I affectionately refer to them as "the Peanut Gallery".

For example, a client's mother, father, brother, and grandmother (all in Spirit) showed up for the reading. When the conversation meandered into the subject of the client's current life situation, the mother and grandmother agreed with the client, but the father did not agree and the brother abstained. "Just like when they were here," my client commented.

When this happens, I frequently remind and strongly suggest to my clients the following:
  • keep in mind the personality and essence of your spirit family and friends (introvert vs extrovert, comforting vs bossy, etc)
  • the relationship you have with them may be different from the relationships they have with each other
  • your loved ones in Spirit can only offer their opinions (not 100% certainty) regarding a situation or possible future outcome
  • listen to your own soul's guidance
  • you have free will to choose your reaction to events

Those in spirit can be generous or stingy with their advice. And keeping the above in perspective can assist you in understanding how Spirit works in your life, including their limitations and their glorious support.

How wonderful it is that thru mediumship we have the opportunity to reconnect with our loved ones in Spirit and have a conversation of sorts with the Peanut Gallery!

Q & A: Will our session be a conversation with spirit loved ones?

Q: What happens during a mediumship reading? Will it be a conversation between me and my spirit loved ones? A: Each reading is unique, so I never know what to expect during a reading. As a medium, I open myself with the highest and best intention to receive information from your spirit loved ones. Once we establish contact with a spirit loved one and have established their identity, we can engage them in conversation and ask them questions. Many times, a reading is an opportunity to chat with your family and extended family and maybe a few of your closest friends. It can be a special time for reunion and a sharing of memories. It can be a chance to say "hello" or "I'll see you again" or "I love you". Perhaps it will be a time for making amends and apologies. Or it can be an opportunity for closure and explanation. Or it can a time to receive guidance and opinions from those you trust in Spirit. Or it can be a confirmation of your own experiences with s

Flashes of light

I am a medium , so I 'see' things. *smile* Well, every now and then, I see a small light. (And I don't mean an orb or a light flying around the room like Tinkerbell.) I am talking about a small pinprick of light that remains stationary and lasts for 2-3 seconds. It resembles a star from the night sky, albeit a very miniature one. This little 'flash of light' is a spirit. Sometimes I see a 'flash of light' (or a miniature star) around clients during readings --- either near the client's chair or in another part of the room. Also, I remember seeing them in a museum, on the trail in the woods, here at home, and at church. When I see that pinprick of light, I focus on asking the spirit to provide me with more information and to share their essence . Much like seeing spirit in side vision , it's a way that we can perceive those in spirit. These flashes of light are just another way for spirit loved ones to communicate that they are with us. In fact, some

Timeframe for spirit contact

Q: My mom just died unexpectedly last week. Is it too soon for me to try to make contact with her through you? I vaguely remember someone telling me that they're not "available" right after they pass? Is there a general timeframe? Please let me know. Thank you. A: There is no official wait time before establishing communication with a spirit loved one. I have noticed some spirits are ready to communicate immediately and other spirits take longer. Some mediums suggest a six month time period. I feel this is a good timeframe for many clients because by then they have processed some of their grief and are not in a desperate space. There is a difference between being ready and being needy. It just depends on the client and the spirit. Trust your own soul regarding this. When you are ready, you just know. What a blessing it is that you know you will connect with your mother's spirit in divine right timing and that love never dies. If you have a general question whose answ
