    Faith guided me

    The rain had just finished falling, and the air was crisp and clear. I found myself standing under a huge oak tree, breathing in the cool freshness of the evening air. Closing my eyes briefly, I absorbed the silence, in that beautiful moment a strange wave of warmth and compassion ran through me. Looking up, I came eye to eye with spiritual medium James Van Praagh. James was the teacher of the seminar I was attending and I saw him at a very deep level far beyond the physical. My soul recognised this energy lifetimes before…. here had come back a familiar energy, a comfortableness, a friend. I knew this soul.

    Hungry to understand the gift I’d had since I was a child, I’d been transfixed throughout James’ seminar as he conveyed the principals involved in accurately receiving and transmitting information from the Spirit world to the material world. I’d been amazed at his dynamic outpouring of love, along with his genuine concern and authentic kindness for everyone in attendance. Such openness from a teacher was something I’d only experienced a few times during my long and intense search for spiritual fulfilment, and I was truly grateful.

    I was also filled with profound relief that someone had finally confirmed the reason I had moved heaven and earth to attend this seminar on the other side of the world. All the experiences I’d had with Spirit throughout my life and the work I’d done in the field of metaphysics seemed to come together in that class, transforming the fragmented kaleidoscope of my soul searchings into a comprehensible pattern. For the first time I felt understood.

    There had been such an outflow of guidance from the world of Spirit throughout the seminar that my spiritual senses had been bouncing off the walls! By the second day, I clearly knew that I was going to be taking to the stage to deliver messages from Spirit. When James asked if anyone felt inspired to come up, I was absolutely overwhelmed with a sense of intense energy exploding within me. It was as if I’d been propelled out of my chair towards the stage. The information from Spirit flowed through me freely and the messages were placed and well received.

    Later, there was a question I wanted to ask James in reference to the work of a medium. That particular question had brought me to the old oak tree to meet him. As I stood there waiting, I thanked Spirit again for leading me to this special place, the Omega Institute in Rhinebeck, New York at this particular moment in time, July, 2009. I had followed a vision halfway across the world to get to this location – a vision of the Statue of Liberty which had come and gone in my mind’s eye for many months. My willingness to trust this vision had first led me to James’ website. From there, I’d discovered the connection to New York that had compelled me to leave my hometown of Sydney, Australia and travel to the USA, casting my fate into the unknown – something I was very familiar with.

    As I stood there, a breeze caressed my face, bringing with it a long-ago memory… I was six years old, back in my childhood home in New Zealand…

    Throughout my childhood I always knew I was different from other children. Somehow, I never quite fitted in. My thoughts seemed to weave in and out of the thoughts of other people; at least that’s how it felt to me. I knew things, but I didn’t understand how I knew them or what to do with the knowledge. It was rather like communicating in another language but not knowing from what country the language originated or how to find a kindred soul who could speak it well enough to have a conversation with me. This stranger in a strange land sensation sometimes left me feeling lonely and confused.

    Then there was the issue of watches – they never worked for me! When I was old enough to tell time, I received a watch as a gift, but for the life of me, it wouldn’t behave. No matter how diligently I supervised it, it would lose or gain time or just stop outright. This resulted in a good many scolding’s from my Mum, for most of the time she didn’t believe my explanations as to why I was running late – or early, for that matter. There were many times I actually changed the hands on my watch to match the time I was supposed to be home to avoid getting into trouble.

    I was the youngest of six – four girls and two boys – growing up in a household where my Mum had enough worries to juggle without one of us constantly at odds with time. Little did I know as a child that Spirit had found a way to affect my environment through watches. This manipulation of time was their first attempt at reaching out to me, as they impressed upon me that in their dimension there is no Time, only Now, where those who have passed away continue to live, in the most real sense of that word. The watch saga continues today, so you’ll never see me wearing a watch.

    School was also difficult for me… my mind simply didn’t work the way others’ minds seemed to work. At home, there was first the absence of a father who had left when I was six months old. Within a short space of time I then had a stepfather – one who abused alcohol. Whenever there is one form of abuse going on in a home, it usually leads to other forms, and our home was no different. All of this made for a somewhat bewildering childhood, so this sense of unknowing became a familiar one for me. In fact, I learned to find a feeling of comfort in not always knowing the reasons behind everything, as if I were somehow knowing the unknown to be known. I somehow understood that in the space before us, around us and amongst us there is much more than meets the eye. I suppose I just had faith that while I could only see in part, there were those much wiser than I who had a broader perspective. Like a child who trusts that her parents can see the complete picture and always have her best interest at heart, I believed that these unseen wise ones were also doing the same for me.

    Today, in my work as a full-time medium, this concept is something I strive to communicate to those I do readings for – to be at peace with not knowing everything at once, to have faith there is a greater force looking out for us. In order to have such faith, we have to dig deep to find the courage within, releasing the things we label as real, such as Time and Space, understanding that beyond the veil these limiting conditions are non-existent. We may need these elements while on the Earth to properly function here, but they are not needed on the Other Side. It’s only the human mind that clings to these ideas. When someone passes into the Spirit world, those irrelevant concepts of Time and Space exist no longer. We, on the other hand, through our human thoughts and conditioning, limit ourselves with our attachment to those ideas. When we let our ideas about Time and Space drop even temporarily, we are able to expand our energy and recognise the presence of Spirit. Once we accept that there is more to life far beyond our limited human scope, we allow greater possibilities to flow into our experience. In other words, by being open to the idea that there is something far greater than us, we allow layers of the unseen world to reveal themselves. Through such layers, electromagnetic forces travelling at lightning speed are able to unravel the true wonders of what has previously seemed to be the unknown. In this way, we are provided a glimpse of eternity.

    When connecting with Spirit’s energy, there’s a true sense of being in a void without form, limitless and vast. Each medium has their own unique interpretation of reading this energy. For me, it is the sensation of being one with everything. It’s this oneness that opens me up. My sensitivity becomes heightened and there is a blending of souls and I am able to walk with them, their personality comes alive, allowing them to transfer information to me. I receive their messages in many ways. The space around me appears like a blank canvas on which visions are revealed, materializing in the room and around the person I’m connecting with. Various kinds of symbols appear to me, symbols which through the years I have learned to interpret, as well as all kinds of other information which I use as reference points in the reading. Names or initials may be shown, phrases may be spoken, odours and sounds might manifest and important soul memories may be relayed.

    This evidential information is offered because our loved ones know that by communicating these personal memories, they are giving proof of their true identity as well as letting us know they are truly present with us. They love to reminisce about their former existence, for they are keenly aware of the great value of their life’s lessons, both the difficult and the wonderful ones. They use our senses to impress their messages upon us, which can lead to some very interesting encounters…

    I recall one remarkable reading I did for a scientist who was quite sceptical but yearning to contact his wife who was on the Other Side. His daughter was also with him, overcome with grief. On the morning of their reading, I got into my car to drive to our meeting place and my car was filled with the smell of cigarette smoke! Now, I don’t smoke, so I thought, What the heck? All I
