Spook and boo

Tis the season for spook and boo.

With Halloween right around the corner, folks across America are decorating their homes with scary jack-o-lanterns, scarecrows, the occasional fake cobweb, and monsters galore.  Many are flocking to haunted houses, corn mazes, and stocking up on horror movies and candy. 

Because of the intensity on the macabre at this time year, I thought it appropriate to differentiate between "spook and boo" scare tactics and true-blue spirit communication.

Several people inappropriately pigeon-hole spirit communication (aka Mediumship) in the "spook and boo" category.  Horror movies and books seem to focus on scary touches, poltergeists, hauntings, ghostly forms that bully, and lots of screaming.  This is what I mean by "spook and boo".  This is NOT mediumship, and this is most definitely not spirit communication as I know it. 

Spirit communication via Mediumship is a gentle, wonderful, and sacred process that connects us in beautiful and fulfulling ways with our loved ones in Spirit.  It is important to set boundaries for spirit contact.  And here are some of my past blogposts on a variety of subjects that explain spirit contact further, so enjoy the read!

What is a Medium?
The 5 Cs
Spirit temperature and density 
Earth-bound spirits
Spiritual progression is eternal and infinite
Flashes of light
Are my loved ones in Spirit at peace?
Where are they?
Electronic voice phenomena (EVP)
Seeing spirit in side vision

Please note that NONE of these techniques and/or experiences are "scary" nor do they fall into the "spook and boo" category.  I encourage everyone to move from mere reaction about events to a greater understanding of spirit communication and the vast opportunities to explore their Higher Self and spiritual journey.

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,
