Thank you for going on this journey with me as I tell you a little bit about myself.
My Earliest Experience with Spirit
I want to begin by telling you when I knew that I had something special, where I knew and now know that Spirit was communicating with me as early as 4 years of age.
My grandmother lived with our family for a little while when I was quite little and tucked all of us in bed from time to time.
One evening, I remember my grandmother tucking me into bed and kneeling down on her knees to talk to me just a bit before I fell asleep. And I remember my bed being up against a wall where a large upstairs window sat above my bed. And as my grandmother is telling me about my beauty marks being kisses from angels, I noticed as I looked up and out this window an image in the night sky. Within this image I saw my grandmother’s face and a face of a man that I had never met before.
Intuitively, I knew this was my grandfather, which had passed away one year before I was born. As curious as I was at that time, I interrupted my grandmother and asked her if she could see this image that I was gazing at, and she leaned over to look up and out the window, and asked what image, what do you see? And I went on to explain to her that I saw her face and a man’s face smiling in a photograph like image. She of course chalked it up as a little girl’s imagination and went on her way.
Many years had passed and when I was around 12 years of age, I was going through my grandma’s photo book and there was that same photo that I saw in that night sky staring back at me! I knew at this time that the image that I had seen was a vision that my grandfather in heaven had sent to me clairvoyantly, to let me know that he was watching over myself and my grandmother. And I think to let me know that I had a very special gift.
So when people ask me when did I know that I had the gift to see and communicate with spirit, I say it all began in the night’s sky.
Spiritual Training
In this story, I am going to take you back in time to when I was in between 7 and 10 years of age. And it was around this time that our family moved to spiritual grounds for two reasons. First, to rent the home that was on the property and to have me better understand my gift by working with it. It was at this age in my life when my father knew that I could sense spirit which made renting this place a given. Because not only would we have a place to live in but I would be able to spiritually develop as well.
This property was the home of three buildings, the church, the reverend’s home and the home that we were renting at that time. And I should mention that this was the grounds of a Christian Spiritualist church. The Reverend would hold church services on Sunday’s and have unfoldment circles on Wednesday evenings. Unfoldment or enfoldment circles is where a group of people that are interested in understanding their gifts would come together to share messages from spirit.
As Christian Spiriualist believers, they believed that there was life after death and that we could communicate with those in heaven. And it was through these circles that I realized that my gifts were not part of my imagination. It was then that I realized at a such a young age, I was able to deliver messages from spirit to those in need.
It was during this time that I learned how to connect and end a session with spirit and how to interpret spirit’s language. I learned quite a bit about Metaphysics and Spiritual communication during this time in my life.
In My adult years, I went to school and received my degree in Metaphysics and earned my Certifications as a Certified Reiki Master Practitioner and Life Coach.
My Gifts re-ignited after years of being ignored.
I went many years shutting down and ignoring my gifts. I decided that everything that my family was telling me at that time was true. After my parents divorced, I lost the only person in my life that fostered my spiritual gifts. All that I was left with after the divorce were unbelievers, with those that told me that communicating with our loved ones in heaven was wrong and that it needed to stop. I simply ignored my gifts long enough that they went dormant. Until a Sleepover happened.
Later in my adult years, I had decided to go out with a girlfriend to have some fun and just hang out. My children were off with their friends for the weekend and I thought, why am I going to sit at home by myself. We had a great time, we went out dancing and then out for breakfast. By time it was all said and done we had decided that I would crash at her place and drive home in the morning.
Now, mind you, I had never been anywhere near this women’s home before, I hardly even knew her, if I am being honest. The time comes when we are pulling into her driveway and immediately this feeling came over me. It felt like I just drove up to an abandoned haunted house that looked nothing like an abandoned haunted home. I mean it was as if spirit was staring out the window at me from inside the house as soon as we pulled up to it! If there is one thing that I have learned it would be that Spirit always recognizes a Medium. I remember standing pretty close to the car as I was waiting for her to find her keys so that we could walk up to her house. And as I was waiting for her to do this, I was taking a good look around, almost like I felt like someone or something was going to walk up on us. I mean Spirit was in the air!
As we are approaching her door, out of nowhere, I ask her where is your dog? As bold as I could be. And she responded, what! What made you ask that? And I said, I don’t know, I just sense a dog and she said, that is weird because he’s buried in the back yard, he died just a month ago. Of course her and I were both in shock because I again, have never been to her house and certainly did not know that she had a dog. It was in this moment that I knew that my gifts had awakened and that this was going to be a fun night.
As soon as we entered the home, I was immediately fixated on the photos on her walls and again out of nowhere began to tell her who was deceased in these photos and about their lives. She kept yelling, Shut up! How do you know all of this! Needless to say it was a very interesting night and if I were being completely honest, I was more than ready for morning to come so that I could get out of there! But it was during this time when I realized that my gifts were to be fostered and not put way. From this day forward, my prophetic dreams were back, I would wake up to spirit standing at the end of my bed, I would see spirits around people and deliver messages to them and am still doing this today.
In 2013, I decided to begin to read professionally. It has been a true honor to have this gift and to be of service. I have come to realize just how much all of us need to hear that our loved ones live on and just how healing these messages can be. And it is my pleasure to connect with your loved ones.
