My Experience Through Mediumship Development

   I am sure many of you wonder how is possible that some people are able to talk, sense or hear the dead. Even more, how can they possible be able to pass messages so meaningful to the ones still living with no rational or logical explanation of how they got it.

Like you, I have these questions as well have many doubts and skepticism about it. However, my journey through Cartomancy somehow led me to see all this talking to spirits, as a limitless pool of possibilities. 

The first time I saw a spirit was when I was about 9 years old. I saw it just like a real person, can hear her breathing and how she put weight on the bed as she sat down to observed me. There is more details of this story that I am not going to discuss here—however that was the beginning of my journey through the spirit world.

Through the years, I had so many encounters as well stories that up to this day baffled me in many ways. While reading the cards, in few occasions I can hear them as well see them. My dilemma with spirits is that once I get to see them, I can’t pass the “aha’' moment and excitement. I just can’t  calm myself and ask these spirits “Who are you? Why you are here? What message you have and for whom?”

This led me to seek help among many of my mediums friends. I got ideas from them, of how they connect but never found it practical. I always looked for some classes and books that can help me. Finally, after all these years—I was lead to a class of Mediumship development near by the town from where I live at. I signed for it and up I went.

I didn’t have any expectations and went with open mind. Hoping that I can finally control the fear and anxiety to it and believe me—I succeed.

There was 17 of us taking this class, only two brave man, the rest were women. I saw clearly all path of life among them as well their open mind and wonder about develop themselves through this type of classes. There was no gypsy like or hippies—there were just regular people. The teacher was indeed an energetic woman, with the skill to teach but more over with the kindness to handle all our emotions through this class. The first thing this teacher did was thrown us into the mediumship with no parachute. Luckily, we all survived the first round—it was indeed a warm up for what came next through the hours.

Its hard to explain how I felt spirit on that day, but what the class gave me was the confidence to trust the unseen and just spit out what comes to mind.  Seems to me through all the readings I got that day, that my father’s family showed up. From my grandfather, grandmother, my father’s baby sister that died many years ago. However, only one Army soldier showed up for me—to asked for forgiveness from me. The readings I gave to others really blown my mind, here I am thinking that I just spoke my imagination and the one hearing it—wonders how I got such details with such accuracy.

In one of the readings I gave, I was blindfold as part of the exercise—in which we don’t see the person for whom we reading for. I have to rely first on my empathic skills and later on, I have to trust the visions I saw. This woman was very grateful for the reading I gave her as no other medium was ever able to contact her dead mother as I did. It was indeed mind blowing!

The last exercise was about to be stage medium—gosh you talking about being under real pressure with this one!

I gave two readings, to two different women. To one woman the reading didn’t do any sense but to the other it did. I remember that when I looked the room around seeking for whom to read, this lady got my attention. I asked in my mind what can I possibly say to this woman? Right on that moment, I saw the vision of this old lady, touching her heart and as she did, I felt a metal object on my heart ticking like a clock. I heard clearly this woman with lots of excitement to tell this lady that “Don’t worry dear, still ticking, everything will be alright.”

I felt apprehended about saying this to this woman across the class room, but I said it. Her face of wonder made me felt like I most imagined the vision, that I might be wrong as she didn’t gave me confirmation if any I said made sense to her. The class was over, we all were exchanging business cards and contacts—when the lady I gave the message about “still ticking” came to me. What she said really made me felt, that there is life after dead after all—that I didn’t imagine such.

She said to me, that both of her grandmothers were recipients of pacemakers later on their lives before passing. She also stated that recently, she got a pacemakers itself and she fears that it might not working properly—for which she constantly ask her doctor and spirits if she will be alright. She stated that when I said those words “Don’t worry dear, still ticking, everything will be alright” was indeed a confirmation for her and her question, giving her peace within.

I must say this class to me, was just the beginning of a new adventure. Two days after that class, I woke up by a pass by spirit named Joe. He just showed up and said hello and that his name was Joe. I asked what you want, he just said—nothing, I just stop to say hello. Right after, I felt his energy leaving my bedroom—I see now that the door of spirit world is wide open. It’s up to me to explore and that is what I will do.

Electrocuted By Spirits?

June 5th, 2010

         I don't know what to make out of this experience, but felt the need to share this, for those that might have similar experience relate with “Sleep Paralysis” of “Energy Brain Download”. Last night, I went to bed to read one of many books I have started and never finish, due to procrastination. 

For some reason I noticed while reading my book, that compare with other times in which my mind wonder off as usual; this time I was very focus on the reading, despite the subject was not anything new.

I got tire of reading close to mid night, so I put the book away while hubby was still playing his computer games. I felt all the sudden sleepy while the ringing in my ears was getting louder than ever. I turn off the light and fall asleep on my belly, when shortly after I got awaken by what I consider an electric shock from hell.

Just imagine the subtle energy coming from one of those fancy electric balls going at higher voltage all over the body.

 

This experience became a flash back memory of when I was shot with the Taser gun while in training. I felt the current going from the top of my head down to my feet in a constant flow, tensing all my muscles. The sensation of it felt very strong, realizing that I was paralyzed and when I tried to see around, all I saw was the whole bedroom illuminated with bright white light. I was about to go in panic, when I  heard a soft woman's voice on my right ear saying, "Calm down, take a deep breath, let it be".

      For some reason, the strange soft voice sounded familiar and it calmed me down as I did what I was told. Right after, I felt this strong current dissipating from my body down to my feet. When it was over, I turn on the lights and looked at the clock, and it seems like I doze off for about 25 minutes, but this event felt like lasting a lot longer than that, giving me the impression of missing time.

I checked my body and didn’t felt any pain, neither burning sensation or saw any burn marks, and although my body felt vibrating at high rate, I was just fine, awake and aware.

I looked around the room to see if there was anything that could cause such experience, but I couldn’t find anything that could shed any logical explanation. I can't understand what happened, in the past I have what I call “Energy Brain Downloads, but on this night the experience was taken to an upper level indeed. However, it became more weird when I woke up in the morning. I got up from my bed, and my eyes were shaking without control, while having a weird pressure on my forehead, to the point to make me feel unbalance. When I tried to focus in one direction, it was like my pupils were looking through 3 lenses. I took several deep breath to get my sight to normal as I was trying to calm myself down. Right after my sight went to normal, this event left me with the question of  “What the heck is this about?” I am sure, I  have no idea at all. However, I feel like this experience is the prelude of something bigger, something beyond my comprehension at this moment.

Loosing The Grip Of Logical Reality

    The other days, I was wondering on why some of us are able to see spirits or ghost at will while others can not. Somehow, I found out something very unusual for a brief moment, while letting go of  logic and reality. I saw a woman in my room, from who I knew some details but never saw her face to face as I did yesterday. Yes, what I saw was indeed a spirit.

    When I was little, I used to see them all the time, but as I grew older they went away or that was what I thought, as well my believe in them. I did like everyone else, kept those spirits apparitions, as a trick of my imagination or as the effects of pain pills.  However, spirits are every where around us, living in their own parallel Universe beside us. The saying of “We are not alone in the Universe” comes to mind, but don’t think in aliens terms, think more in spirits. Because their daily presences show us that we are not alone AT ALL.

Most “Empaths” are able to feel the presences of spirits around them, but just few can see them with normal vision.

In this particular occasion, I was talking to my daughter about dreams of mine and while talking, the subject of why people can’t see spirits came to the conversation. I told her that I was incapable to see them at this moment and then she said “is because you are holding tight to reality and logic, let go of it for a moment and lets see if you are able to see them, because they are there, they are everywhere”.

I thought about what she said while she continued talking and I took a deep breath with close eyes, while saying into my mind “I want to see what is not there”. Funny was that when I opened my eyes, for a brief moment I saw this heavy set white woman, standing besides my Tarot table. It was brief, but she seems solid as a person. She was wearing a shirt with burgundy color as background, while the prints all around it, were leaves in different tones of Autumn, connected with each other by roots or branches. The shirt was tucked in while she was wearing a long burgundy skirt. She must be older than 50, but barely any wrinkles around her face. Her hair was wavy or curly in shade of dark blond. Her eyes seem to be hazel color, while her lips were thin and her nose reminded me of European people. She was just standing there and gone out of my sight quick as the blink of an eye.

I interrupted my daughter to tell her about the woman and she was able to tell me details about her appearance that I didn’t say to her to begin with. It was kind of creepy and as I shook my head in disbelief, I started to wonder—is that was my imagination or it was real? How can it be possible among all the spirits hanging around me as family as I was told by others, this woman was the only one showing herself? That was when, I questioned more myself through my logical mind while living this reality, there most be an explanation, I thought.

I am very sure a psychologist will label me as delusional and consequently prescribe pills to keep me back in this reality that we all know. However, I started to wonder, “what if” what I saw was part of our reality while connected to us through a parallel reality? Yes, I know.. I am throwing some Quantum physics on this but “what if”?

I am just going to continue experimenting by loosing the logical reality here and there once in a while, to see what else I can see. :)

Love and Light Everyone!
