Usually: An Ode to Spring

Incredible.
Wonderful.
Amazing.
Fantastic.
Unbelievable.
Gorgeous.
Unusual.

No, I'm not describing the latest celebrity hottie or a new icecream flavor.  I'm talking about the weather.  It's spring!

Actually, it's a very summer-like spring.  We've had temperatures in the 70s --- an unheard of joy in this part of the world at this time of year. 

Usually we would be experiencing frost, snow, and freezing sleet.  So everybody is deliciously surprised and satisfied by the sunny turn of events. 

In fact, I can tell that some people are surprised that they don't have to complain about the weather because they are almost speechless.  And they have beautific and radiant smiles on their faces. 

After years about venting about the long horrendous winters and large amounts of snow that we usually experience, the frowns have been turned upside down. 

This got me thinking about the lessons of this unusual Spring, so here's a short list of what I'm learning about myself and my LIFE this spring:
  • 'Usually' doesn't apply anymore, so remove 'usually' from your weather vocabulary.
  • You really will reach the next space of light.
  • When things are good, don't focus on the past.
  • When people are happy because of the weather, let them enjoy their happiness and thereby encourage praise of blessings.
  • Plant a garden and grow with it.
  • Take time to watch:
    • the sun sparkle like diamonds on the lake
    • a robin tug a worm from the green lawn
    • the purple crocus flower bloom
  • Get the grill out of the shed.
  • Go barefoot more often.
  • When your 3-year-old wants to spend the entire day outside and find a way to accommodate this instinct as much as possible in the schedule.
  • Join him! 
Bottomline:  The external sunshine is nothing compared to the internal sunshine of your soul.  Spring is another way of helping us to remember we are Divine.  That after the darkness comes the Light.  You can discover yourself in the Sunlight of Today!


Sunny blessings to You All!!

Lily Dale: The Season

"The Season". *** To those of you are not familiar with Lily Dale, this phrase may seem to indicate the time of year (winter, spring, summer, fall). But for those who know and love Lily Dale, it's so much more. And I shall attempt to describe some of "The Season" to you now. Running from usually the last weekend of June until the day before Labor Day, "The Season" takes place during the summer months in a spiritual community called Lily Dale. Whether summer visitors come for a day, a week, a month, or a season, they mention that they feel "an amazing peace when I enter the gate". For many, "The Season" has been a time for spiritual pilgrimage and renewal, education and fellowship, evidence of spirit contact, and healing. During "The Season", there is plenty to do every minute of the day. The schedule is abundant with healing services, spirit message services, thought exchanges, lectures, circles, seminars, and classes. In ...

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...

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,...
