Allow the Universe

About one month I ago, I dashed into a store for a few things.  As I approached the cash registers, I noticed only one register was open with a line of five people in front of me. 

I groaned internally because I was due to pick up my son and husband in five minutes.  The store had plenty of associates (six people) stocking the shelves nearby and only one register open! 

As three more customers joined the line behind me, I saw one associate, and then another, go into the register area without urgency and then leave again without urgency.  They couldn't have missed the extremely long line of customers waiting to be checked out.  And they didn't seem in any hurry to correct the situation.

I felt impatience welling up in me.  I wondered: should put the items back on the shelves and leave without them? Or should I stay? A voice within me said: STAY.

This went against my rational mind's nagging fearfulness.  "You'll be late, you'll be late," it was chanting and jeering.

Deciding to consciously practice spiritual natural law, I just as quickly let that impatience go, saying to myself, "The Universe will handle this situation.  And I will not be late to pick my family up."  I instantly felt relaxed and I smiled calmly to myself. 

One minute later, an associate went to the check out area and slowly opened another cash register and stated in a monotone voice, "I can take the next person in line who is paying cash."

It took me a second to realize that all of the people ahead of me weren't moving to the now OPEN register.  "I am paying cash!" my voice rang out happily.  I was checked out immediately and on my way to my family without a hitch.  Only one other person joined the cash line behind me, and when I left the store ten people were still waiting in the original line. 

This is an example of allowing the Universe to handle the situation.  Time was expanded - those five minutes were extended infinitely.  A checkout line opened up almost exclusively for me.  And the best part, I was not late.  It was a wonderful lesson in Allowing the Universe.

Now that it's the Christmas holiday shopping season, I intend to remember this lesson and apply it liberally.

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,
