Lessons from a Child: Walking

My little boy is learning to walk.

From a few hesistant steps, he has progessed to walking from one end of the room to another. He's pretty smooth, but he occasionally takes rests to hold onto a door frame, a chair, and a person's leg. Having that temporary oasis to cling to before adventuring again is crucial to his exploring. Many times, he will crouch down to rebalance or pick up a toy and then he's off again. Sometimes he returns to speed crawling when he wants to get somewhere fast.

You know what this means, right? My son is not a BABY anymore --- he is officially a toddler now! He has grown from a small sleeping infant nestled in my arms, to crawling, to standing and cruising, to taking a few hesitant steps, to becoming a walker (a toddler).

Perhaps you have experienced this natural and progressive force in your own life in the form of an idea, a child, or an awakening into awareness.

First, we birth an idea previously only part of the ethers (cosmic consciousness). Then, our creation begins to take form and take on action of its own. It gathers momentum slowly and deliberately (crawling). Then it pulls up to standing testing its strength, perhaps wobbling a bit. Gaining confidence and balance until one day it moves into an easy rhythm (walking). The joy of this momentum brings a smile to you and those around you --- a celebration of creation!

Nurture your spirit, your awareness, and your "children" --- and enjoy watching them grow.

I'm trying to catch up on everyone's blogging and came to yours. I love this post. I use this analogy a lot and actually wrote something this morning that is very similar. We can all picture learning to crawl, walk run, even though we may fall at times. We focus, brush ourselves off, hold on tight and try again. One of life's hardest and best lessons. Practice, practice, practice, and hold on tight, the journey is going to be a great one. Thank you for your educational, insightful posts. Love and Light, Nina P

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
