Psychic Development and Mediumship
I am a survivor of twins. Since I was a child I have always had an interest and sense of other dimensions. As a miracle 2lb baby, my twin died at 3 hours old. I felt a strong reason for staying. As a child and teenager I felt I wasn't ever alone.
However I had no yardstick or paranormal experiences I was aware of until I was thirteen. We were on a family holiday in a cottage near Nevers, France. We arrived and shortly after settling in, it was obvious to myself and my father that the place had a very strong presence. This was so strong, my father who was a sensitive, logical minded, church-going solicitor, was alarmed and I was also affected. I can still remember the peculiar and novel feeling of being watched by someone who was invisible to my open eyes, but whom I could feel was standing by the bedroom window. My father decided we had to leave quite shortly after we had only just arrived, within a few days. We had to make arrangements to stay somewhere else.
Once home, research suggested if we hadn't left the French cottage, the unhappy presence might have become more troublesome. This was my first experience. I thought little more about it and my education continued. I was very good at French and top in Art and good at maths. I had a passion for the 1930s and 1940s.
I studied for seven years in fine art and theatre set design, and developing interests in family history and the visual creative arts. At the time I was puzzled by the diversity of my work and talents, I sensed very strongly that everything had to have reason but with this mixture I couldn't see one, I just had to go on with my strong intuition. These areas all gave me modest success. Then in 2002, aged 31, my big shock came:
My father died suddenly of a heart attack after a knee operation. We had been extremely close all our lives, my instinct told me this wasn't and couldn't be the end, although the reality was his body was dead, but was he, the person? I asked him to let me know if he was ok. I didn't really expect anything to happen!
Two months later I had the first message from him, in my sleep, he walked through the front door fully dressed in the tweedy suit we had buried him in and said 'the hospital has given me the most marvellous new body!' he enthused to me. I was delighted and very surprised to hear from him. These messages came through to me mainly in sleep and continue to date. My father confirmed after I had reassured him I was getting his messages 'yes, you're very good at it!' That alerted me to my ability.
These began as psychic dreams, these were real spirit people talking to me. They gave me information I could check on, it has always been proven to be correct. More validations started to build: receiving knowledge I couldn't have otherwise known. Similarly the messages started to come sporadically when I was practically awake or meditating with my eyes closed. Many other departed relations started to come through as well, as I read more about the subject the contacts spread to spirit guides or helpers. Their existence was entirely new to me. I was never scared it all felt very natural.
The spirit helpers responded clearly and gave their names and reassured me about themselves. I realised I could receive guidance about everyday life if I asked for it and for other people. This is still infrequent and I am still on a learning curve. This journey compelled me to write the entire experience and to date I am writing a book of this journey.
It became clear that communication was the linking theme of all my work: visuals, written, and knowledge of past lifestyles helps me recognise spirit persons who visit me. I was shown to be someone who can go 'upstairs' to spirit and 'downstairs' to earth, the word: mediator was used, also I was like a 'pdf' file, (illustrated) a cross platform ability. I attract visits from so-called ‘dead’ persons in spirit, and psychic information concerning the incarnated in this dimension, about my own and other people’s long past ‘body-life’ existences.
Communication from the spirit helpers or spirit people is conveyed in a variety of ways. They frequently use the images of a telephone, mobiles, email palm screens and will play the sounds of telephones ringing, or the ringtone on my mobile, all this happens in my head when I am fully relaxed and fairly drowsy. Further information frequently comes in the form of metaphors and making use of the chakra system, which is a spiritual colour vocabulary relating to bodily health. It has taken time and experience and a lot of questions to establish how this whole connection works personally for me.
When ‘spirit’ people who were formerly here talk to me, they mostly use plain English language, in short sentences, usually very clear and normal in their meaning. Their full energy and presence can be felt, I can feel their new bodies in most cases and sometimes they simply transfer the information without words. Most of all their new vitality is always a delight to see and feel. More recently, predictions started to be given to me. Some information is simply 'zapped' into my head, whilst writing or walking down the street. I attract visits from strangers, former teachers, actors, former mediums and of course family. The accuracy is valid provided I interpret the information correctly where appropriate.
There are exceptions, and about 25% of the information does not belong here, it is usually very detailed but entirely ‘wrong’ for this reality and when this first happened I was quick to question the discrepancies. I was shown that the answer was quite simply – we live a multi-dimensional, multi-universal existence and we have many variants and outcomes of our lives and we naturally pick up these to keep ourselves wholly/holy informed. To live at a complete level of reality rather than a partial one is the aim. Each of these variants affects and is relative to the other. Once I was satisfied with this, I could concentrate and trust the remainder of the communications.
I have had many messages confirming this path is my natural one. It is an area that neatly links all my work as a painter, writer, and my work on historical lifestyles: all leading me to become a communicator and to link the many dimensions. I have begun a sketchbook of the ‘spirit, other-reality’ people I have met and I am now working on my fine art from a psychic point of view.
I am now told I must be very patient and wait for spirit to lead the way when the time is right. That is the hardest part! Being patient . . .
