The Rainbow

I saw a rainbow today.

Low in the sky, below the misting clouds and sun peeking thru, there was a big beautiful rainbow. Brilliant colors arced over the trees, bending down toward the earth.

My heart filled with joy at the sight. And the words that Judy Garland immortalized in the Wizard of Oz came to mind.

Somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high,
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby.

Somewhere over the rainbow
Skies are blue,
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true.

Someday I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far
Behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemon drops
Away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me.

Somewhere over the rainbow
Bluebirds fly.
Birds fly over the rainbow.
Why then, oh why can't I?

If happy little bluebirds fly
Beyond the rainbow
Why, oh why can't I?

This optical and meterological phenomenon has delighted and confounded many throughout the ages. And there are many ways that various cultures have explained the rainbow's existence.

My favorite: In Greek mythology, the rainbow is considered to be a path for a messenger between Heaven and Earth.

Did you know that white light is composed of the light of all the colors of the rainbow? I think it was Isaac Newton who demonstrated that fact. Light can also bend, act like a wave, and interfere playfully with itself. That's why scientists say a rainbow can happen.

Scientists now have a satisfactory explanation for the light refraction of the rainbow, but this does not diminish its beauty and specialness.

When we pass to spirit we are embraced by the Light and Love of God in a superilluminary way. I think maybe the Greeks were right.

So I ask you now: where do rainbows come from?

Rainbows to me are signs of our wonderful light bodies. At the beginning/end wonderful treasures. At the height brilliant color for all to see. A reminder that through the storms a light alwayz shines through.

Rainbows come from LOVE!

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...

Your job during a mediumship reading

If you are the person who is receiving a mediumship reading and desiring spirit contact, you have a very important job --- CONFIRMATION. This means confirmation either by your own personal knowledge or thru the personal knowledge of another person known to the spirit. During the course of the mediumship reading, you can confirm the information that you know to be true. And some information may require validation after the reading with friends or other family members who are privy to this certain info. Here are some examples of ways in which a spirit may try to validate who they are: The spirit's personality traits or physical characteristics may be described. This is part of what I call the Essence of Spirit . Most spirits are willing to share how they passed with the medium. Sometimes the spirit will give names very clearly or just the initial. Often spirits will give important dates of reference to further validate themselves. They have been known to mention other family members,...
