Spiritual family

There are people in our lives that become dear to us because they share our core spiritual beliefs. Sometimes they become closer to us than our biological family because they 'see' our souls and nurture our spiritual selves.

These folks are our spiritual family.

And while I am blessed by a biological family who is also my spiritual family (a rarity I am told), my spiritual family also consists of:
  • close personal friends (a.k.a. kindred souls I trust)
  • members of my church (a Spiritualist church I have attended for over 15 years)
  • other residents here at Lily Dale (a spiritual community and the world's largest center for the religion of Spiritualism)
Certain friends of mine are open to discussing spiritual ideas and sharing spiritual experiences. They are supportive of my work and I am supportive of theirs. Most of them are not professional mediums or healers, but they are aware of using their intuitive abilities in their everyday life. It is wonderful to trade stories of synchronicity, dreams, and life path with kindred souls I trust. We help each other on the journey.

During church services, I feel a kinship with those who have gathered. We share similar spiritual beliefs and spiritual philosophies. Our group energy raises the vibration exponentially. We express this through inspirational speaking, song, church-style spiritual healing, and messages from spirit. When I serve as the featured medium, featured speaker, chairperson and/or volunteer healer for these events, I know I am serving my spiritual family.

Living in Lily Dale, I am surrounded by neighbors who know and support mediumship and spiritual healing as expressions of God's Love. A plethora of educational and spiritual opportunities exist here. In addition, enjoyment of Lily Dale's special places, woodland trails, and waterways offer attunement with Nature and with other souls on a conscious spiritual journey.

Bottomline: Finding fellowship with kindred souls is important for spiritual development. Gathering with others of like-mind and like-intention is a way of creating positive spiritual awareness and sharing 'truths'.

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
