Light & Bright

Up until this point I hadn’t done any readings; I thought my skills didn’t cover that ability. In hindsight it’s probably best that all my skills didn’t (and haven’t) come to me as a flood of overwhelming change.

I like learning by jumping into the deep end and learning by experience but now I think about it, that would not be the safest way with the other side. Especially when I can come into some angry spirits.

Usually I go through a length of time where I learn a specific technique and explore it. Then the universe gives me time to practice and get experience with the skill.

A friend in need

One of my Taekwondo students was experiencing some disturbances at her house. We get along wonderfully and I consider her a friend. Doors were opening, necklaces were jingling and the TV was turning on at a loud volume in the middle of the night.

Like most families they have some conflict which I was aware of in the background. One of her daughters friends had just passed away as well.

After walking through I picked out a few places which she confirmed as areas of activity- the area next to her husbands side of the bed, one of the lounges in the living room and a corner of the dining room area. At this point I did not feel anything negative in the house.

We decided to sit down at the dining table to discuss.

Someone else was at the table with us

To my right, in the corner of the room I could feel a nice man. On my way to her place I was getting a male ‘G’ name which was stuck n my head. When I went to say that name my mouth said a different ‘G’ name. The names were very similar, same length and only 1 letter different. I will touch on this a little further into this post.

After describing his body language, demeanor and personality, then saying his correct name, my friend told me who it was. It was her husbands dad.

We ended up talking for about 2 hours. Most of this time he was with us and I was speaking with him as I was speaking with her. It was effortless and I was able to connect with ease. Myself and ‘G’ ended up answering many questions for her.

A follow up

I had just unexpectedly done my first real reading and was excited. She was happy with the results as she asked if I could come back when her husband was there.

We arranged this but we got the days mixed up. I like to be healthy and relaxed for a cleansing. I also prepare the day before as well as on my way to the person’s house. The day she wanted was a very busy day for me and I was feeling a little hungover so it was not an optimum setting.

The reading was meant to be for her husband but when I was trying to connect, I felt I was getting blocked at my throat. He works long hours and was tired so he went to bed. After which, I did connect for a few moments with his mum while my friend and I were chatting.

It was not a successful follow up reading at all, I felt.

Months later

My friend advised me that the noises and banging and TV  were quite extensive and she was reaching her limit. At this point she got an unexpected door visit from a Christian friend. They advised her to start praying and the noises would stop.

They also advised her that my skills were not from God and made it worse.

She is a very strong lady and did start praying and the activity did diminish. I am grateful that she is no longer pestered by the noises and feel no hostility to her visitors.

I believe that the first time I went to her place there was nothing there, just her father in law passing on some needed messages. The second time I went there I think there was something else in the house but I was being blocked from connecting with anything as I was not in the correct frame of mind to deal with them.

She was also seeking direct answers which the spirit world was unable to provide; this left her unsettled and not content. That internal imbalance, with the addition of the conflict in the family, allowed a disruptive spirit the opportunity to attach to her.

It’s clear to me that the visit from the door knockers was not a coincidence and the universe planned it this way. We all learned something from the experience. I was rewarded and then humbled.

What’s with the disruption of voice?

In these two experiences my voice was disrupted or changed without me having any control. Prior to this, I had experienced times where I had lost the channel or the connection with a spirit and I felt like I was talking around in circles or just not making sense anymore.

It has occurred to me from this experience that if my throat is being blocked and I can’t get the words out, that they are wrong and I need to approach from a different direction. It was also a humorous experience to be saying a name in my head and have a different one come out of my mouth because I had one letter wrong.

Often times the humans affected by the activity have a correlation to the spirits. Many times this is actually to help to us; this cleansing is an example of the spirit helping the humans.

This particular family also requested that I not remove the spirits if they were positive or family. I think this is nice and respect this decision.

Recommendation

As the universe has it, a number of my friends are sensitive and at different parts of their spiritual journey. One of my friends recommended me to her best friend.

I started the cleansing like always with a walk through the house. The house was recently renovated, it looked beautiful. I, however, was seeing a different house.

In the front rooms where the bedrooms now were, I was seeing a living room and kitchen.

After the walk through the mother of the young family and I had a chat. I didn't know anything about her or the family but started channeling information on the kids and both sides of the family. This was a first for me but it worked really well and I now try to do this with all cleansings.

The connection

In the house I was sensing an older man. He meant no harm; he was walking around the house in it's old setting  and enjoyed the old living room area which is where the family was experiencing the most disruption.

After allowing him to get closer to me I could feel his intention. He was worried and wanted to warn the family. He was a hard worker and provided for his family but worked long hours and didn't get to see them very much. This is why he liked the living room- it was where he was happiest.

When chatting to the woman I had asked her if her husband was currently working long hours which she confirmed. She also advised that she was also about to head back to work herself.

This change was what the spirit man was trying to get there attention about.

The warning

In this instance he wanted them to take it easy and remember the importance of family time. He didn't want them to make the same mistakes he did. He didn't want them to regret not being at home and enjoying their family time.

After passing on this message to the owner she advised that the information was taken on board. His downfalls allowed her to plan and be aware of the potential challenges for the upcoming changes.

I advised that he meant no harm but would probably come back to say hi when changes were coming in the future. She acknowledged that if she felt him or saw him around that she would recognise the warning and be aware of upcoming challenges.

All is well

I recently saw this family at the shops and they let me know that all is well in the house. This was great to hear.

This cleansing taught me to channel throughout the cleansing to gain more information on the situation. I also realised that I needed to be aware of connections between the living and the passed. This helps the spirit to relax and settle down as well as allowing the living to gain hints and tips from the otherside.

Psst- you need to have read Part 1 for this to make sense!

After the spirit goes over to the light

It’s an amazing feeling. A weight has been lifted. A puzzle has been solved. But there’s an exchange of energy; it’s this positive elation that lets you know it was a success and the otherside has accepted this soul.

Each spirit is a person, just without body. Like humans, when you help them both parties come out better at the end. You learn something about yourself in the process of helping someone and that’s a great thing.

Beautiful as it is, life continues

My husband was having a birthday and we went down to Sydney for dinner and drinks with the gang. You may have read Stephs blog or seen posts about her. My husband and Stephs husband are school friends. Steph and I have always been tight, our birthday’s are one day apart. I consider Steph my spiritual sister and I often consult her for all things spiritual.

This night was a catch up so I had lots to tell. Or so I thought. Steph’s an emath so she can link in with feelings and her guides quicker than you can blink.

Steph assessed my spiritual position. Without asking but that’s how we are haha.

She advised that I had an attachment to me. I replied by saying that it could be a few things and listed them, with the last one being Jonathan. “Ohhhh”, she said. Then described him: “He’s short, balding. I see him as a laborer but down on the ground type work. Very striking eyes and lots of personality”, she rattled off with ease. “Not a bad or massive attachment but a few tendrils hanging on”.

Nailed it.

I knew why

Another mentor says that cleansings can be dangerous because you always feel for the people and spirits you’re helping. That love can leave you open. I really wanted to help this family because they are my good friends. On top of this I believe that Jonathan and I shared  mutual trust too.

His charisma made me feel comfortable and I cared for him and supported him when he needed it. He might not have wanted to leave me because of the familiarity. He might have wanted some of my light for the next part of his journey.

He needed to let go

My energy is my energy. It protects me, fuels me, inspires me and allows me to learn. I also run a very busy life so the energy I have is precious. I had to lay down some boundaries and stand my ground.

For this I went to my room where we passed Jonathan over and smudged myself. I told him that it was time for him to let go an fully commit to the next stage of his journey. I acknowledged the lessons he had taught me. Then I used my Selenite wand to cut any tendrils from my spiritual body.

All done!

This cleanse started like many others with a child that wasn’t comfy in their room and a chat between friends.

A child with paranormal afflictions

One of my childhood friends posted a pic of their child on Facebook as a memory from a few years ago. It showed her boy standing up in a school uniform with his hands in front of him. There ere other kids (blacked out intentionally) around him. The creepy-ish part was that there was another hand enveloping his hands. Like a hand shake or an adult holding hands with a child for support/love/guidance.

The general consensus of this picture was that it was paranormal and it kind of freaked the mum out a bit. I said that I would like to help if they wanted it.

To start with I was struggling a little to get information. Maybe it was because I am close to the family. maybe it’s because they didn’t want me to know anything. I’d try to feel the energy as I drove near their house to work.

A few things have come to me while I’m driving. I think it’s because driving in some ways allows me to meditate. Anyway, one day I was in the vicinity of their house and I got the grandfather figure.

There was a little concerned that I wasn’t getting any information and that there might have been a reason for this so I showed the photo to a psychic friend of mine that can read photo’s and is spectacularly gifted. He thought that it was not a negative spirit and was more like a grandfather. It’s good when energy lines up like that.

On the evening of the cleanse

On a previous trip to Tasmania I had purchased a clear quartz with tourmaline spikes that I took for the boy. I also had a variety of other crystals for him and his mum.

The kids and mum were all home; as it turns out, not the best move but it as what it was. I asked the boy about his experiences and did a walk through the house making note of any energy I felt. There was certainly something in his room but I didn’t feel it was evil. It felt warm but active.

I cleansed the house and did some meditating in the boys room. The spirit tried to connect with me but I could only see a gold colour and get a name. Initially I thought it might have been the boys non-relative spirit guide.

It was nearing the kids bedtime and they were restless. Also, they had a lady with pink hair burning sage going through their house and muttering in every room. The poor mum had an eventful night trying to get her two little ones to sleep. Now I won’t do a cleanse with children in the house and I certainly would not have done it while they were there if I felt it was a threatening spirit.

I did not feel like it was complete but as you may know by now, that sometimes happens. Some time by myself was needed to work it out.

That night back at my house

My husband and I put some Selenite between our pillows for protection and aiding in communication. I also had some black Obsidian next to my bed. I must have known something was not right but I was tired and not paying attention.

In the middle of the night my husband had a terrible nightmare and I had an awful dream at the same time. We both woke up in sweat and fear. The Selenite was new but was from a reputable store and I had thoroughly cleansed it so I didn’t think something had come home with it.

I believed Jonathan had come home with me.

He had.

The next day one of my elderly dogs was having a huge operation. I had a little cry on the way to work because I was worried about him. On top of the bad sleep we’d both had it made for a very tiring day.

But I wanted to see if I could make contact with Jonathan. I wanted him out of the house and onto the next part of his journey. So I stayed at home with the puppy patient and did some meditating. I could feel him there at the end of my bed and to the right but he was keeping his distance. My guides were advising him to stay away. I told him to let us sleep this night and that I would help him the following day.

The next evening I decided to stay home and care for our patient. I took this time to try and help Jonathan pass over. Well, he had no choice; he was going happily or he was going to be kicked out.

We had a chat about why he was stuck here and why he was harassing the boy. He felt that he didn’t deserve to go over. “Why not?” I asked, “Tom foolery”, he said. I took this to mean that he had been disloyal to his family and wife. Looking at him he was short, not too stocky but strong, balding or very short shaved hair, alert and cheeky blue eyes and olive skin. I felt he had been a tiler or a concreter, that type of trade. He had a charisma and I understood how he ended up in situations where he then made bad choices.

I asked him why he was hanging around the boy and my understanding was because he wanted to be around a male energy and there were no other men in the house at that time. The boy, being young would have some sensitivity and light that spirits are attracted to as well. Things work in weird ways so he may have gone to the child in the hopes of help. He didn’t want to harass the child and did have some regrets about putting the child through some fear.

Going to the light

This was a funny one because the spirit was nervous about going. The light was a big gold portal in front of him. He kept going towards the light and then retreating back anxiously. I had to tell him that he could not stay and that he would need to face his consequences eventually. I was understanding but firm in my resolve to get him over.

He started towards the light again; arms up protecting his face from the light. As soon as he got near it just sucked him in. Quickly. It was so fast- he was there and then, gone. No more Jonathan in my room.

Cleanses always change me a little bit

Mainly it’s because you need to understand a spirit and their life or emotions in some way to help them. In this case I love the family I was helping but I also felt warm towards Jonathan. I think his charisma softened my attitude towards him. We became mates in a way because he had to trust the process I was delivering. I, on the other hand, had a responsibility to complete the process for him and his journey.

I’ll always do some meditating before a cleanse. Sometimes I will write, sometimes I’ll close my eyes and connect with the spirit before hand and sometimes I’ll draw. I’m not very good; usually it’s sketches done in pen.

It’s a chance to get some anchor or validation points so I know I’m on the right track when I’m onsite.

This is also a chance for the spirit to give me some information that they might want me to know. There have also been times that I have taken this opportunity to calm or provide the spirit with assurance.  Even a warning or two.

This cleanse I had drawn two things but the strongest image was a small girl with a smock on. The view was from the side and her legs were running and her arms were out in front like she was running towards a loved one. The other image was a young woman, motherly but not matronly.

I have posted this picture and scribble on Instagram.

The request

The catalyst for many requests is a child not able to sleep in their room. They are sensitive to spirits- it’s not always bad but it can still be frightening for them.

This request was a referral from one of my friends that I had already helped. The family was beautiful but the parents were worried that their daughter wasn’t sleeping in her room. Both of them said that they also felt a little funny in the room too. I always respect this; if an occupant of a house doesn’t feel comfortable it’s a red flag.

The house was new and had a good vibe throughout but they were right, the daughters room was a little off. My mind came back to the little girl in the drawing.

The rescue

I knew that the cleanse was going to happen in that room so I got my things ready. I instinctively went down on the ground.

It took me a little while to get in the zone. Eventually I could feel her with me and I asked her some questions: why she was here, why she hadn’t passed over. She said that she didn’t know how to pass over and that she was hanging out with the living girl because she wanted to be around someone.

I also think that she wanted to enjoy the life she hadn’t had by being around the little girl of the house.

So I asked for some light so that she could start moving on. There was some resistance there but not from her- from the mother that had passed. I have not worked that out yet, maybe she was just a private person. Maybe it’s not for me to know.

The opening of light is different for everyone. This one I saw the bottom half of a wooden door open and light come through. Then I saw the little girl run through the door with arms outreached. The door slammed shut quickly after.

Cleansing

I smudged the house after this just to reset the vibes in that room. Usually I will smudge the whole house as I like to be thorough with the job. When I entered her room again I kept on being told about Amethyst. Amethyst, Amethyst, Amethyst.

I got to the parents room and there was a little mattress next to their bed with a little pillow and blankets. It gave me a small jerk of sadness for the little girl of the family whom I had not met. The empty little bed was a symbol of her uncomfort and the things that parents will do for their little innocent children.

Once I reached the front door again I quickly scanned the house- I just run a quick wave through from front to back to make sure the energy is all settled. When I got to the little girls room it was shining brighter than all of the others. This was a happy confirmation to me.

The final step

When I was gathering my things I asked the parents if they would be open to getting their daughter an Amethyst. I didn’t know why the spirits wanted me to pass this on but it had to be said. They agreed that she would love the idea. Apparently purple had recently started becoming her favourite colour.

Sometimes additional steps on the occupants part will be provided. This may be an instruction from me or, like in this case, from spirit guides. They were quite forceful with the Amethyst thing.

Cleansing and spirit rescue isn’t the only job that I have; I also work full time for a large company and I teach Taekwondo 3 times a week as well.

This was the first spirit I actually helped over with the assistance of his lovely little grandma.

This experience started at the office.

I used to work the later night shifts, finishing at 10 or 11pm. After 9 or 10pm I would be on my level of the building by myself which was fine- it is well lit and there were still people around but they were in a different part of the building. The building car park backs onto train tracks and my seat was at the back of the building so I could see over the car park to the tracks.

At this time I didn’t know how to help spirits pass over either.

Sometimes when I was alone, my hair would move. I once heard talking in my ear (head?) while I was listening to music and I used to get really itchy. We used to have laminated name labels on the back of our chairs and one night I felt the back of my chair being being ruffled. My name label came off the back of my chair and when I turned around it was about 4 metres away from me, so that was weird.

There were some changes to shifts.

For a good 2 year period I didn’t really work by myself late at night and I kind of forgot about the happenings. Then things changed again and on a Sunday night I was again by myself up there. My desk position had changed slightly.

During the week I had an inkling that I would hear from him because it dawned on me that I would be alone again. And I started getting itchy again. I was ok with this- not the itching but the thought of being around him again. I wasn’t frightened and it was time that I tried to help get a spirit over.

As the spirit and I had spent some time together I almost felt like we were friends meeting again. I still made sure I was protected- I didn’t want to be too gullible and end up in a pickle.

On the night…

I was typing away and the last person had left about 15 minutes prior. My right arm started to get hot. Well I wasn’t quite ready; I still had some living people that needed my immediate attention so I told him that I was going to help but he needed to wait.

Five minutes later my arm is getting hot again and I feel like that arm is being pulled so I would turn around. I wound up what I was doing for him and turned around. I was due for a break anyway.

At this point I didn’t see anything, I didn’t need to, he was familiar. I walked over to where my old seat was and closed my eyes. I took a few deep breaths.

The rescue was starting.

The next bit all happened quite quickly. Maybe, because it was my first rescue, I was being guided. There’s no time over there so they would not have felt like they were rushing me. I asked him to come forward if he was present. Well-

He was right in my face. So up close that I felt like I had to move my head back. Despite just asking him to come forward, I then had to ask him to take a small step back haha. He politely respected my wishes. I think he was excited that it was his time in retrospect.

We had a chat; I asked him why he was stuck here. He advised that he felt bad he had kept his family waiting. I asked for him name. I felt like he had lived in a suburb nearish to where we were. It was my feeling that he had lost or taken his life near by. I also felt that he was on his way to a family gathering or they were waiting for him but he had no intention of arriving.

A little help from the other side.

He started to get excited again and got all up in my face again. I was opening up a circle light for him but because he was in my face he couldn’t see it. I asked him to look for the lovely warm bright light.

As he was looking, a gorgeous little old lady came through the from the other side of the light circle. She was prim and proper, very short and had cropped grey hair in a curled up bob. She had a long skirt, a blouse and cardigan on.

“Look for your grandma”, I urged.

He turned and she took him by the arm and they walked back into the light. Perfect.

I sat there for a little bit and the relief and happiness that came over me in a huge wave was an incredible feeling. This feeling denotes the rescue has been completed. It also a nice feeling for the end of what can sometimes be an arduous task mentally and emotionally.

A humorous ending.

I sat back at my desk feeling invigorated and hoping that I had done what was needed to. I hadn’t done this before so I didn’t want to jump ahead and think it was done when it might not have been. So I asked the spirit to let me know if I had helped. And I told him that I would be in the same place at the same time next week if he needed a second try.

So, that night, I came home and I tell my husband about my rescue. We have a quick supper and go to bed.

I can’t sleep. The spirit’s in my door way. I turn over to face away. Still no sleep.

I watch about 5 YouTube videos on the most boring subject I can find. Still no sleep.

Now I have to go to the bathroom. But he’s still in the doorway. I get up and he moves aside for me.

I get back to the bedroom doorway and my phone screen has somehow rotated so that when I come back to the door, I can read it front on, not upside down. It is a black screen with THANK YOU in white across the full screen. It’s on the end of the video for 8 minutes.

I turn to the spirit and tell him he’s welcome and laugh- he dispels into white sparkles and he glitters up and away.

He’d been waiting all night to say thank you and I was ignoring him because I was scared. But he waited around until there was an opportunity to tell me. What a sweetie.

This is one of the first happenings when I was in my twenties. It didn’t start me working on my abilities but it did get me thinking about them. Maybe it’s been part of me since I was born but I certainly didn’t pay any attention to it.

A bit of history

When I was young I was lucky enough to be taken in by my beautiful aunt and uncle (now most importantly known as Mum and Dad). They are humble, honest, warm and guided by morals which they have passed onto us kids. They are unapologetically strong, challenging and unwavering; I respect and love them unconditionally.

My brother and I lost our fraternal mum when I was 7 and he was 5.

While I can’t remember anything before this instance I’m 100% sure she’s been with me prior to it. I have been told that she takes the ownership of my spiritual sensitivity so props to her. It leaves me to wonder if it’s her gift to me because she can’t be here in the flesh.

I digress…

Anyway, I was lying in bed late one night. I was at my boyfriend’s house at the time and had some growth to do as a human being and young adult. I’d been coasting through life with no meaning. Mum and Dad requested that I do something with myself; they suggested I should become a helicopter pilot. In hindsight that seems like a spectacular idea but I was in the moment that that time. You may relate.

So I’m lying there, lights are on, some music is playing in the background and the boys are talking among themselves but they start getting duller and further into the background. I’m pretty chilled and I start hearing a voice; it’s soft and womanly and I’m not alarmed. I was pretty relaxed and my wariness was not spiked, so I just let it roll over me.

The voice started getting stronger and I could distinguish the words. I felt I was being read a letter by my spirit mother voicing her wishes for me as a person, a woman, my future and dreams. It was a very powerful moment for me.

Yes, Mum and Dad had told me some of this before 100 times. Yes, I had listened- no I had not acted on their advice. I’ve apologised many a time to them for this.

To wrap it up.

Not all cleansing and spirit rescues are resolved on the initial visit. While it’s my aim, sometimes things don’t go to plan. This blog covers many smaller ideas and experiences which I will happily elaborate on in later posts.

Recently a spirit and I had some unfinished business. I had done a house cleansing for my friend which was successful, but at the time I hadn’t worked out that I could help spirits over. It resulted in the him being stuck out the front of their house and not wanting my help.

The initial contact

A few years ago my husband and I had gone to a friends house for dinner. When I was in the bathroom the door handle started rattling about. It was summer so everyone was downstairs and no one was up there with me. I felt the spirit was male.

We were newish friends but nonetheless I decided to ask her if she had spirit experiences in the house and she said she had. Throughout this chat I said that I could cleanse her house but she declined because she felt like the spirit wasn’t bad. She was very close to her family in spirit within the house and didn’t want to lose them or that connection.

This is understandable and important.

We should be close to our loved ones if they are around; they might be there to help us, guide us or provide comfort and support in our times of need. They may also just pop in because they want to be around for the important moments. These are positive spirits and can come and go because they have already passed over. A cleansing won’t get rid of these spirits that have your best interests at heart.

I didn’t agree that the spirit was her family but I respected her decision. It wasn’t the right time.

I felt that keeping the male spirit around was inconsiderate for him but there’s no forcing these things and she was fairly comfortable with the way it was.

The cleanse

Many months passed- dinners were had, wine was drunk and the friendship grew. Eventually we started talking about a creepy money box she had found and the resident spirit. She was starting to feel uncomfortable with the male spirit around and we revisited the cleanse idea. I had channeled some information along the way too; I felt he was a bully and sometimes I heard him laugh. She always felt him in the bathroom and felt like he was making fun of her and enjoying her fear.

My opinion was that no one should feel uncomfortable in their home and I hated seeing a friend even remotely unhappy at home. So we decided to do a cleanse.

I took all my stuff over to her place and I as I was checking the house for vortexes we got the the spare room where there was some energy above a section of the bed. I didn’t know but right below my pendulum was the creepy money box.

The cleansing went well; I wanted my friend to take back control of their house so she helped. I gave her directions on making a barrier around their house for protection against future activity. The negative spirit activity ceased and everyone went about their business.

I did have some additional impressions from the spirit- I felt his bullying meanness was a cover for insecurity and a lack of love in his life.

Second thoughts

A number of months after this cleansing I had learnt about helping spirits in need and I had done one or two rescues (stories for another night). I started feeling guilty that I hadn’t helped him out. I couldn’t feel, see or hear him in the house so I thought I’d lost my chance. It was really annoying me and I thought about him often.

One night we were over at their house and I heard this shouting from the front gate. Well he was ANGRY, shouting profanities and threatening my friend. I can understand; I had booted him out of the house but he was like a whirl‐wind of anger at their gate so that’s not healthy. Jobs need to be fully completed so I started thinking about how I could help him. There was a large inkling that he was not going to respond well to me…

The healing

Enter another great friend Steph, who has amazing abilities with guides, spirits and everything else. She had helped me from afar with a previous job and I wanted her to be a part of Light & Bright formally but we had never had the chance. I thought that she could help me with this unfinished business because she would offer the softness and love that the spirit needed and would not accept from me.

We arranged a weekend to go over to the house and started preparing. She was doing her thing I had done some meditations.

In my meditating I had asked for some guidance. In the first one I was shown the horizon with the sun in the background which meant something to me. The second one was funny because I had allowed 30 minutes for the meditation and I got the answers I needed in about 3 minutes. They said that we just needed to prevail with love and kindness. I told them I had 27 more minutes but there was nothing else to give. Quite simple really.

On the day

Steph and I met at my house and I pulled a tarot card to keep in my mind for the afternoon- it was a card for enlightenment and soul searching but a lovely soft card that corroborated the messages I had already received. We both also took some crystals.

When we got to the house Steph said the first thing she heard from him was ‘#@$! she bought back-up’. We gave the dogs a pat over the fence and settled down in front of the gate.

I had always seen this spirit as an angry frustrated teenager with black hair that was happy to fight but Steph saw him as a little boy with burgundy shorts, no shirt and messy hair; a little scrapper.

As suspected, he didn’t want a bar of me and I was ok with this- I was happy for Steph to take the lead and work her way through her first rescue with my support.

She spent some time talking to him, hearing his story and understanding where he was coming from. This was very important. His father was not a nice man and the spirit was upset that his mum hadn’t helped him. He then acknowledged that his mum had been in the same situation he realised that she did love him.

Spirit rescue

We sat there connecting with him for a few minutes and then he dropped out. This was a sudden lack of connection, not a dwindle, just a complete shut off. We came back to ourselves, regathered and made a plan.

Closing our eyes Steph got him again and I had his mum; I just wanted her to stay with me until he was ready.

He showed Steph him and his mum walking the family working dog which we took to mean that this was one of the only good memories he had. We thought he dropped out because he was afraid he would have to see his father again. Steph consoled him and got him to be ready to pass over.

Now that he was ready the spirits mum moved forward and they held hands and walked towards the beach at the end of the road toward the horizon- exactly what I had seen in my meditation. Steph and I both instantly felt a massive lurch from our belly to our mouth and opened our eyes. Steph was crying for the boy but happy he had was able to find love and peace. I was pleased that he could now be at peace.

All of which he deserved.

I was proud of the boy making that step to heal; he was very brave. I was also proud of Steph who was amazing and held her own.

Over time this blog will cover my experiences, insights and commentary on spirit rescue and house cleansing.

I thought that I’d start with a quick one that explains why I do this job.

So, why?

I’ve always been a helper and I’ve always been interested in spirits. It’s probably been with me all of my life but I really only started paying attention to it in my late twenties. I started learning how to meditate at around the same time I went to hospital for a surgery where I picked up a negative spirit that took over my body.

That experience scared the proverbial out of me but also taught me many lessons that I use to this day.

While some spirits are horrible and it could be argued that they are no longer spirits any more, there are ones that need help. These one’s are lost or stuck here for some reason.

And how?

My job is has many parts; to work out why they are stuck, to listen to their story, to assist in the healing process to get them over to the other side (which will allow them to start the next part of their journey) and to help the humans that share this space.

Working out why they are stuck can come to me in meditation or if I’m in their space. I could be driving or crocheting and unintentionally open up to receive messages. Sometimes it might take me a little while if they are a private or stubborn spirit. They may also be young or confused.

To them, like us, listening to their story is very important- without this they usually won’t go. Their story also helps me to understand how to start the healing process and to get them ready to go over.

The humans that witness or experience the presence of the spirit are very important too. Sometimes they are a pivotal part of the process without knowing. Many times they may also learn from the process.  It’s important to me that my human clients are empowered to take control of their own home and family. No one should feel loss of control in their own home, nor should they feel oppressed or frightened.
