Hello there, all new followers. Welcome to the family! Don’t be shy. Please let me know how you like the blog and what types of content you are interested in reading.
How many times have you heard about dramatic messages from Spirit?
There have been several instances both off and online where “the Red Sea parts” for some famous author, celebrity, or New Age teacher. My cynical side would wonder, ” This must have been exaggerated for sensationalism and to increase book sales.”
While there is little if anything that surprises me anymore, it is still healthy to apply discernment whenever you encounter something that seems too good to be true.
In any case, while I still have some pieces in draft form, I have an interesting tale that relates to the mystical, watery, ephemeral side of life. I am thinking of the 4th, 8th, and 12th houses, along with both of Scorpio’s rulers, Mars and Pluto. While Mars is the incredibly fiery ruler of Aries, it was the original planet associated with intense, passionate, volatile Scorpio. Pluto just re-entered my 12th house for an extended stay. It was only straddling the cusp in 2015, barely whispering in my ear. Now I sense more of the transition from the 11th to the 12th.
The 12th house rules institutions, the subconscious, and the unconscious. We are talking confinement, shadows, the hidden and the buried. Good times indeed! My desire to work with a medium had continued to increase to the point where I was ready to do something about it. Although my 8th house is empty, I am strongly Scorpion in nature with a lifelong interest in the occult. While I do not consciously possess mediumistic abilities, my fascination with the afterlife is strong and persistent.
This weekend I met with a gifted medium.Transiting Pluto was opposing natal Mars and transiting Mars was squaring natal Pluto on the day of the session. One could call this a double whammy. Meeting on this particular day was not planned way in advance, mind you. The opportunity came on quite suddenly.
While I am not at the point of revealing details, I will say that it was incredibly emotional and a bit cathartic. I also believe that Source has been preparing me for this opportunity behind the scenes.
The last question I asked the medium was if my own abilities to connect with the departed would increase as a result of the reading. The answer was an emphatic yes.
Now for the reveal:
The following evening after my reading, I was drawn to re-read Sylvia Browne’s world predictions. I have at least four of her books and am a huge fan of hers. I used to tape her regular appearances on the Montel Williams show. I did not remember which book had this material, but I figured my bedroom closet was the most likely location. The top shelf is very high, so I stood on my tippy toes to grab the book with her name on the sleeve. The book came tumbling down along with my Goddess tarot cards, my healing cards, and a few other books. The tarot cards spilled all over the floor and I had plenty of stuff to clean up. While this was happening, I flashed to a story in an old Shirley MacLaine book where an important book leaped off the shelves to get her attention. The Sylvia Browne book that created the avalanche was not the one I was originally searching for. But on the carpet near the scattered cards I found a cat’s whisker. Then I turned over the Sylvia Browne book that I had identified at the top of my closet shelf. Imagine my shock when I read the title.
This is the second time I found a whisker after Dexter’s passing. The thought occurred to me that these whiskers could be from my previous cat, but I doubt it. In all the years since my first cat died, I never recall discovering a whisker.
I think this experience really qualifies as a dramatic “Other Side” encounter. I wonder who or what put the idea in my head to search for the book on predictions. The subtle impressions we receive are often overlooked. I am more comfortable with the visual so I tend to minimize non-visual stimuli. That could be an error on my part. I am sharing this here to celebrate the wonder of Spirit communication and to say that we are more likely to create what seems impossible if we keep ourselves open.
Please share in the comments section if you have ever found a whisker or other souvenir after your pet transitioned. What about wild, dramatic, experiences that resulted in contact from Spirit?

Lovely story linda I love reading about people’s life’s, what’s going on, how you are getting through… Inspiring each other on the way… Apart from noticing the small ‘coincidences’ that continually happen in my life I also went through wanting to heighten my communication skills with other dimensions… But I’ve always felt a need to stay with my human self… Until I realized through my perception of elemental beings that it was important for me to focus on this dimension, love and trust myself so that I would connect with a new role for humankind to take on… and allowing divinity and other dimensions to come into this physical reality. We are now the new ascended masters… incarnated spirit radiating out into this world as Earth is changing from her dual ‘job description’ to one of unity. Mediums, psychics have been very useful up until now… And will continue for the ones who choose to continue in the old human way… But it’s no longer about us going out there to connect, out there to be empowered… It is time to reclaim our own sovereignty and birth our desires a new from within us. This powerful expression is being birthed within me now and is putting me out there to tell the ones who are ready to hear the truth… Publishing a book about it, and now openly speaking about it… A big step for me to dare and be called crazy, but that’s ok, these people choose to continue to live out there duality here. Love to you linda x barbara x

With some magic to boot. I have an outdoor feralish kitty ready to have a litter. That cat would not take no for an answer and has made herself my friend. lol Her name is Bossy Boo because she is so bossy, like me. I call her Kitty of course. I am praying for her delivery, she seems so uncomfortable and ready to pop.

Loved this encounter dear Linda.. 🙂 and the appearance of that Whisker. 🙂 all telling you to keep pursuing your intuitive side .. You do not need me to tell you that communication from the Spirit realm is real.. And ask yourself what is a whisker for.. Does it not sense? So trust your senses.. And know you are being divinely guided .. I used to watch Sylvia Brown also here on TV.. And have 3 of her books.. 🙂
Don’t we just love it when the Universe Speaks and did you take note of any of those upturned tarot cards?? 🙂 Messages galore within your post ..
Have a super weekend.. Love Sue xxx ❤

Thanks Sue for adding more validation. I recall you were active as a medium for many years. This is new for me, actually experiencing this firsthand.
And ask yourself what is a whisker for.. Does it not sense? So trust your senses.. And know you are being divinely guided ..
This is very helpful. I never considered the meaning. Sometimes when I get an initial hit, I do not always examine all details. But lately there have been some unique and odd occurrences here at home that are asking me to be more thorough. BTW, the cards appeared to be all covered, I did not really look closely. Too bad you weren’t here at the time, lol!
love to you,
Linda

Well next time your cards fall out at you, LOL or a book off a shelf… Its amazing how simple these things are.. Yet we are being told loads by the unseen realms.. Like while I was sat at the patio window with Laptop on knee.. A huge bumble bee kept on hitting the pane of glass trying to get in at me.. this happened for 3 days on the trot.. Until I looked up the meaning of Bumble Bee.. 🙂 Now he flies to the Jasmine which is in flower.. 🙂 Now I’ve got the message.. 🙂

Now that you mentioned it, I awoke yesterday morning to a daddy longlegs a couple feet above my head. It was enough to get me out of bed,lol! I am afraid of spiders and many insects. I looked it up and while the meaning did not jump out it me, it could have been a message from my dad ( daddy, get it?) Sometimes I wonder if I attribute too much meaning to some occurrences and too little to others?
Not a bee fan either! You are doing well Sue, I can tell … I am so glad you found your way back to you. xx

I am sure your interpretation will find its own level .. Practice makes perfect..
It was the same with the Clairsentience .. When I would give messages from the platform .. I would be shown various images within my mind.. It took several years to pull it all together to know why I was being shown symbols clashing… This was to get me to see that there was a clash of personalities around the person that was giving grief..
Where as a pair of babies booties meant a new birth.. They would also show me either them in pink or blue.. But I would never tell them what it was.. I think there is nothing nicer than awaiting the arrival to know if boy or girl 🙂
I would be shown many animals in symbols too.. A stallion. Often would show me someone proud and who had the bit between their teeth who if given a free rein could get out of control.. Lots of time to build up certain meanings of what you are shown..
So as you develop your skills.. Take note of all these external signs and the internal dialogue .. Embrace your gift.. ❤

I appreciate our exchange about this topic. What I am realizing is that there is both breadth and depth to all these skills. Some I came in with and remain strong, while others appear later and require practice and nurture. While others expand beyond my previous understanding of their limits. Do you have any posts about mediumship on your blog? I want to learn more about that time in your life 🙂
sending love and gratitude your way. ❤

Thanks for sharing this awesome story. This seems like a ‘hello’ from Dexter. It is so amazing that this happend right after the reading where you were told that you would be more easily able to connect with the departed. It really sounds like more than a coincidence.
And, yes, who or what put the thought into your head that you should go and look for the book on predictions? These inexplicable urges are also a way of spirit to communicate with us and steer us. Often we think that we are the author of our thoughts. But we are not; not always, at least. The thoughts and urges come into our mind from the same inivisble realm from where dreams come into our mind.
Hugs,

Hi Karin,
Your comments here are informative and comforting. The fact that the book dropped led me to see the whisker was cool, but the clincher was the title itself. I have about 4 of her books and was not looking for this one. I did not even remember the title beforehand. The sleeve ( I just looked now) does contain the title, but I was only focusing on the author. It was atop a stack of books that I could not really reach. My plan was to find all 4 books until I saw which one contained the predictions.
This comment really rings true:
These inexplicable urges are also a way of spirit to communicate with us and steer us. Often we think that we are the author of our thoughts. But we are not; not always, at least. The thoughts and urges come into our mind from the same invisible realm from where dreams come into our mind.
Life’s current flow has in a way forced me to rely more on my intuition and in new ways. It used to be more a novelty, mostly out of my control. Often I would find out later, that my hunches led me somewhere or to someone. Now I amusing it to discern otherworldly contact and how to assess my health problems ( learning when something is an emergency or just unpleasant symptoms.)
This post was a chance to illustrate that what seems random is not random. I do not think the idea to get the book was my own. But what is ” my own” ? 🙂
Hugs,
Linda
