Monday "Last Entry in Diary"

Dear Diary,

This will be my last entry in this Diary. It is bittersweet as I have enjoyed writing about the various ghosts and people in my life. I have to also add that the spirits make life interesting and they are certainly here with us and around us where ever we go. I know that even after I stop recording my encounters with them they will continue to amuse and keep me on my toes. However lately I am finding myself with less time to write and record as my attention has been drawn to finishing the editing of the book and to moving on into teaching again.

One thing I do want to say is that in starting the Diary of a Spirit Talker my biggest hope was to not only keep a record but to open up my life to let others see what it is like being sensitive to the other side. A large portion of that was also to let others know that we always have a choice whether we want to communicate even if we see spirits. Also with being sensitive we have to lean how to master our selves and learn who we are because the signals we send out attracts that energy and ghosts to us.

This weekend we got quite a lot of activity in the house. Not the same spirits that I have seen in the past but they are always coming and going. We had everything from white and dark smokey images to a clear mirage of someone walking through the dining room. This particular weekend I was preparing for a new class so I didn't pay too much attention to them. The ghosts seemed to feel the same way about me and so we (my family) just leave them alone living in harmony unless someone needs our help and we get the message that we need to intercede.

So with this last entry I say my goodbyes.

            Love & Blessings,

Friday "A Question"

Dear Diary,

It didn't take long for the energy to change in the house. These past few days we have had visitors (ghosts) who seem to be enjoying our company in the house. Last night we were watching a movie in the living room and we had several visitors come in and out of the room as if they were checking on us. Mostly they appeared as the white and dark smoky images that I have recorded in the past in this diary.  These spirits wouldn't make a long appearance but just enough for me to notice them in the room with us.  I didn't feel any aggression only curiosity from them.

The most common question that people will ask is if the ghosts that I see is someone that I know from this lifetime. From my own experience I do have family and friends pop in once in awhile but mostly the spirits that I encounter are those passing through attracted to the light in the energy fields, like a moth to a flame. From what I understand the attraction depends on whatever is resonating in the energy fields which is what gives them pause to stop. Since the human emotions come in a wide range of emotional energy it can be hard to govern what is broadcast in the energy fields to the other side. One way of thinking of this is that for the spirits, it is a lot like being at a party and meeting someone you have something in common with. In those occasions you just feel naturally drawn to make their acquaintance.

The connection works both ways as the ghosts can pick up on the energy and make the connection or if you are looking for someone on the other side you can make the connection. On the most part I am not usually looking for spirits unless it is a Spirit Rescue. On the other hand since I am a sensitive that is why there is a variety of spirits passing through our home or wherever I go. I used to think places were haunted until I learned that it doesn't matter where I go because just like living they are everywhere.

Wednesday "Light Cleaning"

Dear Diary,

I have had very few sightings in our home since I last wrote. After pushing gold and white light through out the house it has been quiet. Kind of nice for a change. I do enjoy our visitors but it is also nice to have some time to ourselves. After the last visitor that was over-enthused with us we decided to cleanse the house and it always takes a little while for the energy to change before we start to have visitors again.

I used to use oils and white sage but have found that light energy works just as well. The idea is that anyone or anything that doesn't resonate with the higher energy in the house doesn't want to stick around. Also I have found when using light the energy penetrates everything that is in the house changing the frequency of it as a whole. Very powerful and yet simple to do.

The way it is done is to imagine and hold the image of an energy ball of a white and golden light about the size of a baseball in the heart of the home. Once this is done then allow it to grow and as it grows, it fills all the rooms including the land above and beneath it. Keep the light growing until you have covered your entire home and everything inside so that it is saturated in the light. Then program it by stating the intention that it is to hold that energy for however long you choose. I usually do about 72 hours and then as it dissipates it leaves everything clean.

You will know when you need to do it again because the traffic from the other side will start up again. This was something that one of my guides taught me years ago when I would forget to buy the oils or didn't have any white sage handy.

Monday

Dear Diary,

We had another quiet weekend. Not a lot of visitors from the other side, however we had one particular ghosts who seemed to be a little fixated on one of us. That didn't last very long as the light was called in and the ghost left on his own. It can get a little strange around the house if a spirit is more than interested in you. Not a good combination. Especially when you find them hanging over you when you are trying to sleep.

Sunday was a little different as I was invited to a Meet-up by my fire walker friend Daniel. Mary Burke-Kelly another friend of mine was giving a talk on Acutonics so I wanted to be there to support her. I asked my friend Jenny to join me thinking she would enjoy the presentation. To my delight she agreed to go and so we trekked to Dallas to relish the day. The Meet-up ended up being a good turnout and Mary did an excellent job talking about sound vibration. Of course seeing her again made it even better.

Side note: Acutonics is the practice of using tuning forks that are calibrate to the different planets. The tuning forks are placed on acupuncture meridians points on the body. It is acupuncture only without the needles as it uses sound vibration to speed up the healing process. For those who don't like needles this is the way to go! Of course there is a lot information about them and that can be accessed through the Acutonic's website.

Friday "Changes"

Dear Diary,


My main focus these last few days has been working on the curriculum for a Light Language circle that starts a week from Monday along with the new edits from our editor for the book that I was hoping to publish this summer. As for the book it looks like it will be a while as we are moving through another round of edits before it is ready for publishing. Between the two it has been a welcomed relief after all the activity from last week. I know now that I just needed something to keep me occupied and out of trouble.

Lately I am still seeing the dark smoky images of a few ghosts moving through the house during the day but nothing to really make a note of. I have also noticed that the energy has changed again because I am seeing more people who have passed instead of animals. In fact I haven't seen any animal spirits in the last few days. Hmmmm...... Also, now that I am thinking about it I am remembering that tonight is the full moon so I suspect that the energy in the house will shift. Not sure what to expect after that. 

What I do want to make a note of is that during the last few nights I have been contacted by ghosts just as I was about to close my eyes after getting into bed. At that time I wasn't asleep only in a restful state where they could get my attention. These spirits came to me briefly flashing an image of what they looked like in life and then asking about crossing over into the light. My guides came as soon as they as they made contact and I would call in the arch angels to help them move on.

 This is a beautiful experience as golden and white light would open up so that the ghosts could step into the energy allowing the angels to take the lost souls by the hand and lead them into the light. I asked once why it was necessary for me to be a part of the process and the guides said that they needed someone in the physical world as an anchor. The guides also explained that lost souls would be attracted to someone that they felt they could trust and would help them make the transition into the light where they were intended to go.

The one thing about doing this kind of work at night is that I wake up with dark circles under my eyes but I feel good about what transpired.

Wednesday

Dear Diary,

I got a phone call from my mom asking me how I was doing and I let her know that the process that Jodi lead me through in her class helped me tremendously. However I did notice that I when I was driving out to see one of my Reiki clients this morning my throat started to tighten up. I knew it was my throat Chakra when it happened. At that time I just happened to be playing a CD that had tones to help clear and balance each of the Chakras, so it came to no surprise when I glanced down and saw that it was on the 5th Chakra which is the throat. Recognizing what was going on I allowed the tones to vibrate through that area and worked on re-balancing it.

By the time I reached my client I knew that what didn't get back in alignment would be taken care of once I opened up the Reiki energy. The Reiki energy is very healing and works on both the practitioner and he client at the same time. The session ended up going well and my client was able to relax. At one time she even started to smile.

On my way back home I decided to listen to music. A few minutes into the drive I turned on to the highway and that is when I looked over at the next lane. At first I just saw the large semi with a load of cars stacked on it. Then I felt my heart leap into my throat. What caught my attention was the sight of a man sitting in one of the parked cars on the truck as if he was trying to drive it off just as plane as day. The car happened to be facing the traffic head on and with him in the driver's seat it seemed really out of place. That is when I sped up to get closer look thinking that I may have been seeing a reflection of some sort. My brain didn't want to process what I thought I was seeing as it all seemed so dangerous. Curious I finally got to a point where I was right up next to the truck and could see into the car, Sure enough he was still there only then did I realize that I could also see right through him. Hmmmmm..... He was a ghost!

I slowed down watching the truck moving over lanes to take the exit on the right. I couldn't help but laugh! All I knew was that someone was going to get a big surprise when they bought that car!

Monday "The Weekend Class"

Dear Diary,

It was a busy weekend. Jodi Lovoi a dear friend of mine invited me to attend her weekend Akashic Class. I was delighted as I always enjoy being around people and the lovely energy of the environment. Saturday was fun as we went through the curriculum of the class and later had dinner discussing the day. That night I went home to be very satisfied and happy but awoke at 3 am with my heart pounding. Then my angel guide stepped in as I felt the energy move across my energy field. At that very moment I understood that the ghost animals in the house and were needing to be crossed over into the light. Immediately after this awareness hit me my angels guides began the process of crossing animals that were ready to go.


Golden white light filled my head startling me so that I couldn't help but open my eyes to check to see if my husband had gotten up and turned on the light. Once I saw that the room was dark I closed my eyes again letting the light absorb me as the angels opened up the energy. They swept through the house clearing it finding the lost souls of animals that were hiding. The whole event went rather fast as the angels were scooping them up or calling to them and then sending them on into the light. I was then aware of the animal ghost that I had seen running through the house last week that hit the back door only to bounce off and run the other direction was one of them.

After it was all over the blinding light faded out and I was again in the dark. Laying there thinking I began to feel guilty that I wasn't attuned to the ghosts animals that needed my help. The light and the angels didn't place that on me I placed that on myself. As I laid there I couldn't shake it off so I got up to write some emails to get my mind settled on something else. Around 4:30 am I was able to go back to bed falling asleep.

Sunday I went back for the second half of the class and was able to release the block with the help of my friend in her Akashic Records class. Before that I was feeling so guilt ridden that she lead me through a process to find the root of my energy block that went beyond the animals in the house. It worked! After we finished I felt light and free again. It was also during the class that that my dad came to visit who had passed away in 2009. I was able to talk to him and ended up chatting with him while the students in the room where working in their records. My friend happened to look over at me smiling then asking me who I was talking to. I laughed and shared what we were talking about. My dad hung around for a little while then said his goodbyes and left.

When the class was over I still felt very light and free from all the guilt that I had placed on myself. I also felt clear again and extremely grateful that my friend had invited me to her class for the weekend. Last night I slept without interruption. It was great!

Friday

Dear Diary,

These last few days have been a welcome break from the astral projection. I had to really back off and allow myself some space to breath. I have been focusing more of my attentions and efforts on a Healing Circle that will be starting up in August.
As for the two that were at the foot of the bed at the beginning of this week, I haven't encountered them since. I did flood myself and the house with lots of energy in gold & white light. All of that was done to raise the vibration so that the visitors don't come into our energy fields that are not in that higher frequency. Even with the change of energy in the house there is still some activity but the interesting thing is that I see more animals moving around the house. (ghosts) I am not the only one who notices. The pets will react when they run into one of the ghost animals. It is kind of funny to watch...

Wednesday "Things that Make You Go Hmmm..."

Dear Diary,

Early Tuesday morning I had another astral jump landing me back exactly where I had been before. When I realized where I was I made a quick decision to go back to my body. After returning I looked at the clock and was surprised that it was close to the same time it happened the last time, 4:20 am. I ended up walking through the house several times trying to ground myself and calm down. When my husband woke up to go to work we talked about what I had experienced.

The rest of the day was normal except for my daughter's and my own cars' batteries were both dead. The funny thing was that I was the last person to have driven both of them the day before so it seemed a little odd. My husband had to replace the batteries. As for the ghosts in the house, there wasn't a lot of activity. There were a few fleeting glimpses of white smoky images moving through the rooms but as soon as my full attention landed on them they would disappear.

There was something I forgot to record that happened on Monday morning. I woke up early with two men standing at the foot of the bed in the form of what looked like water vapor. I knew they were men as the way they stood and were built. Lately I have been looking at the time when things are happening and so I saw that it was a little after 4 am. One seemed to me to be middle aged and the other looked younger although I couldn't make out facial features.

They hung out for a while as I was reading. I kept glancing up to check on them beacuse they seemed to be really interested in us. I wasn't nervous just wanted to know where they were. After my husband got up I got out of bed and forgot about them as the house became alive with pets wanting to be let out and fed. I didn't think about that encounter again as I was preoccupied with what had happened on Saturday that is until now when I remembered the visit and am writing this...   Hmmm...

Monday "Astral Projection"

Dear Diary,

I am going to have to say that this weekend stands out a little I have been networking to get the word out and sending healing energy to help change the energy. I have started to astral projection again. In the past it was not something I've done on purpose as it was clearly spontaneous. This time it was a little different.


Saturday morning I found myself in a cold sweat laying on the bed after pulling myself out of a situation knowing I may have crossed some boundaries. This experience was a huge motivation on Sunday to seek some advice from a friend about how I should handle the situation and maybe even find a teacher who is more adept at how it all works. Clearly I need to learn to to be more in control.

My friend's main concern was getting stuck and not being able to return to my physical body. That is not something I was worried about because I have every confidence that I am capable of making the trip back home as I am fully conscious once I land. The problem is that I am not always aware of leaving my body so taking precautions can be a slight complication. The whole experience can be a little bit disconcerting as I find myself suddenly fully conscious somewhere else from where I began. In this case I found the experience to be highly disturbing in where I was. Lucky for me she had someone in mind to help me learn more about how to control it. That I am grateful for!

This experience of astral projection is not something new as it seems to come and go in my life but only lasts for a few months then stops so I haven't really focused on learning how to control it. After the night before I am leaning more towards the direction of taking the extra time to learn.

Dear Diary,

One of my friends came over last night to help me shift some energy using the Reiki healing energy. It didn't take long and when you use that much energy it also clears so much in and around the house. I was really grateful for her help. After she left I let the dogs out to do their private business and when I opened the door to call them I noticed that the crickets were extremely loud. I thought it was strange and forgot about it until I opened the door again to retrieve a glass that I left outside. When the sound hit me again I made a note of it knowing that something had definitely shifted.

A few hours later I was in the bedroom walking past the door when I saw something that looked like a small animal run past the doorway in the living room and heard it bump into the back door only to bounce off and run past the living room door again. One of the dogs who was beside me saw it too and walked cautiously into the living room with me following behind. The other pets were not in the living room. They were in fact in the bedroom with me so it wasn't one of them. It looked so solid even though I knew that it was a spirit animal but felt like I wanted to investigate it anyway. Sure enough between me and the dog we didn't find anything.

When it was getting late I went back into the bedroom to get ready for bed when I remembered that I didn't turn off the lights. Everyone was asleep in the house so I made my way in that direction. As soon as I walked into the living room a women passed right through me. I only had a few seconds to realize what I was seeing before it happened. She was tall and slender wearing a knee length skirt. Her blouse was tucked in and had long puffy sleeves. I didn't see any color. I saw her as a white smoky image that was well defined making it easy to see her clothes.

Finally after turning out the lights to go to bed I noticed that I could hear the crickets sing from the back yard. They just seemed to be loud last night and I made a note of it while thinking that I didn't remember ever hearing them from the bedroom with all the windows closed before. I slept peacefully and got up early this morning to meet with one of my Reiki clients who I see at her home. It was a lovely session but before I left I noticed that all was calm around the house.

Wednesday

Dear Diary,

Our family left to go back to LA late on Monday night. We spent yesterday playing catch up with errands and house work. I was too busy working on things to even take the time to notice any energy or changes in the house.

As for today it turned out to be very eventful starting early in the morning when I got a disturbing text from a lady about a dog who was hit by a car. The text set off a chain of events all morning and afternoon finally resulting with a really good friend of mine who is a part of a animal rescue team picking the dog up and taking him to her veterinarian. The little one didn't make it but between the two women and the people on the rescue team they made a huge effort in trying to get the proper care for the little dog. That I am sure of.

As for the ghosts in our home I haven't paid any attention to them with all the distractions and they have not been aggressive these past few days in trying to get my attention. However my daughter reminds me that the ghosts are still here but they seem to be more interested in what we are doing so they are keeping themselves in background.

Monday " A Scream in the Night"

Dear Diary,

 Saturday night I woke up upset and couldn't go back to sleep. I lay there in the dark trying to relax and not think, when all of a sudden a scream of sheer terror ripped through the room. The hairs on the back of my neck stood straight up. The scream was so blood curdling that it seemed to pierce through my soul in anguish that something was feeling such pain and suffering.

My sleeping husband slept through it but our pets seemed to be just as disturbed as I was. I quickly checked on them finding that they were all okay. The pets were all in their beds looking around trying to find the source. Scanning the room I wondered if my husband had made the noise in his sleep but he was sleeping very soundly and quiet even for him. After hearing such a noise my nerves were set on edge. There seemed no possible way to fall back asleep without my mind taking over turning every thought over in my head. I lay there in the dark trying to get a hold of myself when I got the idea to read something up lifting to keep my mind from racing and taking me somewhere that I didn't want to go. I already knew that what we heard was from the other side and that who or what was no longer in the room.

I grabbed my phone finding an article on Light bodies. I was wanting to teach a Light Language class to help others learn about their own Energy Signatures and had been toying with the idea of setting it up for several years. Just a few days ago I had the realization that now was a good time to put the class together. By shining a light in the dark I can make a difference teaching others how they can connect into their light and shine their lights out into the world. I know that there are many out in the world doing this work, but the more lights we have can shift the suffering on the planet. I was reminded again tonight that it is my turn to step up to the plate. Things can change if we learn to move into the higher consciousness. After making the commitment to myself I finally fell into a deep and very restful sleep.

Note: Yesterday someone did ask me about the ghost who knocked me out the other night. I haven't had any contact with the ghost since but have also been preoccupied with the animal situation. I don't believe that the scream came from that ghost. What I can say for sure is that I know that ghost seemed to have gotten what it wanted from me on the other side but again I don't know what that was. I trust my angel guides and they were not alarmed or gave me a warning that I was in any kind of danger. What I do get is that whatever the ghost wanted was resolved and it moved on. I do have a peace that resonates in my being from that encounter.

Friday "Anger"

Dear Diary,

One thing for sure about attracting the spirit world's attention is that you have to be really careful about your emotions as they can be a calling card for the different levels of ghosts around you. I was doing so well until last night when our family split up to go in different directions for the night. After everyone had left I had a brief conversation with a friend on the phone who shared some information about some animal abuse that was happening.

My first emotion was shock then anger took over my whole being. I love animals and people! Driving home I started to text some of our friends who I know are animal advocates to ask for advice on how handled the situation. I got a text back later in the evening offering help in finding someone to do an investigation. That one text helped me to get a hold of my own anger. I could feel my energy going dark before that and knew with that kind of signal shooting out into my energy fields that it was inviting all kinds of lower energies which only brings trouble.

Side note: What I know is that people who dabble in the dark and lower energies think they can control the dark side. That is not true. The dark side serves no loyalties but themselves. They will turn on a dime and will come back to haunt you. They feed off of the lower emotions and if you are afraid of them they will stick around enjoying the feast your lower emotions provide them as they become stronger. Light and staying in your integrity is the only way to change the energy and to move your emotions away from the lower energies so that they will leave you alone. Mature sensitives knows this. Sensitives who are learning can fall into this trap leading them into a web of darkness if they don't learn to control their own emotions and stay on the path of light.

I am much calmer this morning and I will continue to concentrate my efforts in working to find more people to put an end to the animal situation. 

Wednesday "The Anxious Visitor"

Dear Dairy,

It has been busy again with our family visiting but it has been joyous being with them. Lately I have not noticed a lot of activity in the house but last night was a whole different experience. I woke up around 1 am and found my husband and all the pets sound asleep. I got up to turn down the air conditioner thinking that it was a little warm in the bedroom and that was what woke me up. When I got back into bed I was wide awake. Whatever I did I couldn't go back to sleep. My mind kept racing with ideas and wonderful projects to work on keeping me up.

At 3:50 am I looked at the clock and realized I had been up for a long time. That is when I remembered my antique wind up clock had stopped ticking a few days before and I had forgotten about it. After checking the other clock in the room I rolled over to wind my clock and change the time when I noticed that it had stopped at exactly at 3:47 am. Now that was very strange.......Coincidence? After winding up the clock and setting the time to match the other clock I tried again to fall asleep. When I closed my eyes I could feel an electrical current running up and down my whole body giving me the sensation that I was rocking on a boat. Then as I was enjoying the experience I was suddenly slammed in the head from such a hard force that it knocked me out.

I woke up this morning with a slight headache. I had no memory of any dreams but the aching in my head reminded me what happened before I lost consciousness No attachment! After doing a mental scan I noticed that I didn't feel afraid or even too concerned about what I experienced last night. I did however feel that it would be good to take some extra time to myself today and see if I can find out what exactly happened. Whatever hit me wasn't angry, evil, or possessive. I am confident of that. What I get is a feeling that it was a bit over anxiousness. My husband brought me a cup of coffee which helped ease the pain in my head and I spent the rest of the morning grounding myself. I also checked in with myself making sure there wasn't any damage or that I had an attachment.

Monday

Dear Diary,

Saturday we were in Austin and got back late from being out with all of our family for the Fourth of July. As we parked in the hotel parking lot someone walked by my side of the car. Usually there is nothing unusual about that except that I was on the verge of opening the car door and didn't want to smash anyone with it. When the man passed I proceeded to get out only to realize that there was no one there. Confused it took my mind a few seconds to catch up that he was a ghost because he looked so solid. Looking around the parking lot I could see that we were the only people parking at that time. It was really late and I told my family what I had seen, laughing it off.

Sunday when we got home the ghosts in our house seemed to be really happy that we were there. I kept seeing flashes of white smokey images passing by me when I was unpacking. Later when I turned off the lights and closed my eyes my head kept lighting up with a such a bright light that I kept checking to see if anyone had come in and turned on the lights. Then I realized that I was being visited and acknowledged them before falling asleep.

Friday "Happy 4th!"

Dear Diary,

I got to spend some time with my grandfather last night. I am always happy to see him and enjoy visiting with him when I get the opportunity. He is 96 years old. One thing for sure is that my grandmother who passed away in 2008 likes to hang out with him. She is not there all the time but she makes her presence known when she is there. A few years after she died she used to materialize right next to him when I would visit. I loved seeing her as it comforted me to see her. Grandpa even told my mom that he sees her when he goes to bed. Now I see more of her energy and feel her around him when I am with him.

Grandma also comes to visit all of us at our house and she has gone to see my mother in LA. We always know when she is there as she leaves dimes for us before she shows up. After that she makes herself known by brushing up against us or something will happen letting us know that she is with us. The dimes are just a calling card from her. I have thought on occasions about crossing her but I know that she waiting for grandpa and she doesn't drain any of us. To me that is a big flag that she has crossed into the light and just likes to check up on us.

Well we are heading into the 4th of July weekend so there will be lots of family around. I am really looking forward to the holiday and being with everyone. Who knows who will also show up this weekend from the other side to help us celebrate?

Wednesday

Dear Diary,

I has again been a very quiet past few days. I have only seen a few sightings around the house but mostly in the bedroom when I was getting ready for bed. I only saw the white whiffs of smoke skirting around me and then making their way across the bed as if I were in their way. No one stopped to chat or even seemed to be curious so I didn't pay a lot of attention to them. I have woken up at midnight these last few nights and stayed up until three am but I didn't notice any activity. Tonight is a full moon so I hope that is what is waking me up. I am so ready for a good night sleep.

Yesterday I did however have a wonderful lunch date with a new friend who has also had her own experiences with the other side. I found our time together to be so freeing as we were able to share and discuss some of the things that have happened to us. It was a very bright spot in my day.

This weekend we will have my side of the family visiting for the fourth of July so it will be interesting to see how the ghosts who come to visit will respond. I do enjoy our time with everyone.

Monday

Dear Diary,

I have to say with our daughter home this weekend it was really quiet except for yesterday when everyone went to the movies and I decided to stay home. I was alone enjoying my time alone with the pets and doing some light house cleaning. As I was tidying up the house I thought about some of the ghosts who have come through our home. I then made the statement out loud that it was a good time for me to talk to anyone who wanted to make themselves known. Right after I said that I stepped out into the kitchen and there in the doorway were two ghosts standing there not moving but staring directly at me.

It kind of surprised me that it happened so quickly and I averted my gaze only to be curious enough to look back at them. Sure enough they were still there not moving but continuing to watch me. I would describe these two as looking like a clear thick vapor on a hot road. I could see through them but it was distorted. One was taller than the other and I got the feeling that one of them was a child who stood closer to me. I greeted them realizing that I had asked them to make themselves known so I didn't want to be rude. In a welcoming voice I said out loud that I would be happy to talk with them but neither of them moved or made a sound. Okay I thought, have it your way, and I went about my cleaning in the other room taking a different route so not to disturb them.

When I came back into the kitchen they were still there as if no time had passed still standing in the same positions not moving. This made me wonder why they were there. When everyone came home from the movies the two ghosts were gone and I didn't see them again until I was climbing into bed.That is when I felt as if I was being watched and then saw the taller one staring at me from just inside the doorway of the bathroom materializing and then disappearing several times letting me know she was there. I gave up trying to communicate with her saying goodnight then turning out the lights and going to sleep. This morning I haven't seen either one of them.

Dear Diary,

I am looking forward to the weekend. We don't have anything planned so it will be quiet around the house. As for the sighting of ghosts around me and the house it is just the usual. There hasn't been a lot of talking from them as of late mostly because I haven't been listening as I have had my mind on other things. That doesn't mean that I still don't catch glimpses of whiffs of white smoke every once in a while moving in and around the house where I am.

Yesterday as I was sitting down in the office working on sending out some emails someone brushed by me making themselves known. I let them know that I knew that they were there but needed to focus on what I was doing. I didn't run into them again until I was in the living room taking a small break picking up pet toys and again they brushed by me,
this time on my right side. Again I let them know that I knew that they were there but preoccupied with all the things that needed to be accomplished by the day's end taking over my thoughts. They left me alone after that...

Today is a better day to communicate as I am free to take the time to talk or work with anyone who wants to make themselves known. Also as the weekend ascends some of the stress of the week is already starting to lighten up giving me time to pay more attention to the other side.

Dear Diary,

I was visiting the other day with a dear friend of mine and one of our adventures together was brought up as we revisited the past. This is one of my friends who I know I can call when can't see my way out of a storm. On that particular occasion I was needing help moving some things out of a space and she volunteered to help me. This was some years ago. The place was a church which had been having some activity at that time. On top of that we ended up having to go in the late evening because of syncing up schedules.

As it happened I was also grieving so I didn't think about our energy affecting what was going on around us. It took everything I had to keep focused on the task ahead. My friend who hears the other side discovered that she had multiple talents that evening when we went to engage in our task. I don't remember a whole lot of what was going on just moving things and getting really strange looks from my friend who seemed to be really uncomfortable. She was just wanting to help me and trying to get the project over with so we could go home.

It was later that she confided in me that when we went into the church she could hear the voices of children talking in the atrium. Then my sadness started attracting all kinds of attention from the other side who were hungry for that kind of lower level energy so when they found the source they tried to jump on me only to slide off. When they couldn't get to me they saw her and started to jump onto her as her fear of them started to come up from watching them around me. Ghosts and entities came out of nowhere. Because I was trying to stay focused on what I was doing the only thing I noticed that evening was a large dark black smokey mass passing the door in the hallway several times only to pause long enough to look in. Each time I saw it I threw out golden light energy towards the door and it would move on. When it did I went back into my grief and what I was doing.

We did finish the move and my friend told me what had happened after we left. It was much later when I asked my angel guides why the ghosts didn't attach themselves to me since it was my energy attracting them. They explained that I had completely shut down in my own grief and when I did, it closed my energy fields creating a barrier between them and me. My friend who witnessed it all didn't know what was going on and she was thrown into the thick of it. Because I was preoccupied with my own sadness I didn't see or help her. She was also blindsided and hadn't protected herself as our intention was to tackle a project which had nothing to do with ghosts. After we left she ended up taking some visitors home. Later we had to clear her and her home.

The reason I tell this story is that it explains a lot about our emotional energy attracting the other side and how important it is to be mindful of our own energy as our energy affects what comes into our lives. With this knowledge we also know we were not created to live with our all of our fields closed down as I had done when I was grieving. Even though it protected me during that time it also shut me in with my energy and anything else that was trapped inside it with me. This stops the natural process of letting things go so that we can move on. We as energy and physical beings were created to be open as all energy flows in and out as it moves through us to keep our bodies and souls healthy. The practice of learning how to be in the higher energy fields allow us to be invisible to the lower energy beings who can't find us when we are in the higher realms.

The other part of this story is that it is always good to also learn to protect ourselves when we are in those lower energy states so that we don't attract the lower energy side and don't expose others to that kind of torment. With the protection we don't shut our energy fields off but have a safe space to still release what needs to be let go of.

Dear Diary,

It was a fun weekend with the children home to celebrate Father's day. Since it was hot and very humid we decided to go see a movie. After finding our seats and having a few minutes before the movie started I took advantage of that time to look around. It was then when I noticed down the aisle to my right two white smoky images moving toward some seats. It kind of caught me off guard but made me laugh out loud seeing them. I had forgotten how much the other side likes movies.

The only other time I saw ghosts this past weekend and was paying attention was when it was quiet in the house and we were sitting down hanging out in the living room. We had a man (ghost) come out of the dining room to the edge of the living room where he stopped as if only checking to see what we were doing. After seeming to fill his curiosity he went back into the dining room. I have not seen him around before so he is a new.

The ghosts tend to come and go and some don't stick around very long. I usually don't ever see them again after they leave except for our family who have passed but they also come and go. Sometimes they just are there letting us know they are around or they will contact us in some way when there is need for it. My grandmother, when she is around, we can feel her presence
and she always leaves dimes in the strangest places. It is her way of getting our attention when she is with us and we aren't paying attention. My dad leaves pennies which has a personal meaning between my mom and him. He also likes to show up when you least expect it. Once I thought it would be funny to sneak up on someone and surprise them as a joke. Just as I was about to pounce I heard him in my right ear say very clearly all three of my names in a very serious tone. It just Ruined the moment! In fact it all backfired and I was the one surprised!

Dear Diary,

I woke up in the middle of the night with the intense feeling as if someone was standing next to the bed. When I finally opened my eyes it felt as if someone had crushed all of my bones. I rolled over and woke my husband up who touched my forehead. He quickly got up and found a thermometer taking my temperature that registered 102 degrees. In a daze I gratefully accepted the Tylenol and water that he offered. Then after a while he came back to bed finding a comfortable position facing the other way and falling asleep.

I laid there in the dark trying desperately to go back to sleep but still had the sensation that someone was watching me on my side of the bed. I didn't want to open my eyes still hoping that sleep would mercifully take me away. Then I heard a voice that wasn't my husband's say, "There now, you will feel better." In my mind I acknowledged that someone was in the room then fell into a deep sleep, sleeping through the rest of the night. This morning when I awoke the fever had broken and my husband was getting ready for work. After checking on me he left and the house seemed quiet except for the pets who were letting me know they were ready for breakfast.

Dear Diary,

Well, it has been really quiet around the house. I haven't noticed as much activity as we had over the weekend which makes me wonder if it has anything to do with the new moon last night. One thing I can say is that with all the rain this morning its has been very peaceful around the house. Even the pets went back to their beds after breakfast.

Yesterday I did have one visitor coming in and out of my office but only when I was working at the computer. A long thin white smoky image would appear and disappear a foot away to the right of my screen. They never showed themselves longer than a second but it kept happening so I wasn't able to ignore them. I knew someone was there as that old feeling of being watched washed over me as I tried to concentrate on my work. The whole time I sensed it wasn't me that they were interested in but what I was writing. It wasn't until I stopped working that they finally left and I didn't have any other contact with them after that.

Dear Diary,

As it turned out my friend didn't get to accompany me to the meeting to hear the talk on Mediumship.  I missed my friend but really enjoyed myself at the meeting. The host was very gracious and made sure to introduce all the guests so that we all would feel comfortable. I was also very delighted to see one of my teachers there and caught up with her and her husband.

The speaker was very informative and I felt that she was highly knowledgeable about the subject. At the end she answered questions about mediumship and didn't blink an eye as she was very thorough and honest with the audience. As I was sitting there I became a little curious wanting to see what was also going on on the other side. With that many people in one room there is always something happening. I opened my fields and immediately saw a man (ghost) sitting behind the speaker cross-legged, with a cowboy hat, facing the other direction. He also had a blanket wrapped around him. Every once in awhile he would turn his head and look at the audience to see if we were all still there. I couldn't help but smile as he seemed very serious.

Another man (ghost) was standing next to the speaker to her left and seemed to be really interested in what she was saying. I closed my fields down to make sure what I was seeing was really there and when I opened them back up they were both still there. As I was sitting there listening some movement caught my eye and I quickly looked down below the chair in front of me where a women was sitting. There under her chair were two animals (ghosts) which looked like someone's pets playing. Enchanted I watched them, as I listened to the speaker, enjoying their fun. After awhile I looked up and was startled as there was a women (ghost) hovering over the two women sitting in front of me to my right. It caught me so off guard that I let out a loud breath almost laughing out loud. After that I decided that the other side was too much of a distraction and closed down my fields.

Later that evening when I got home it was late and my husband was already asleep. The house was buzzing with energy. As I walked through the house it felt as if I was being inspected as white whiffs of smokey images followed me into the bathroom and kept me company as I was getting ready for bed. I slept through the night without any interruptions but the rest of the weekend they were certainly busy coming and going through the house making themselves known that they were there. With my family home for the weekend and friends wanting to get together I didn't have a lot of spare time but knew the ghosts were just doing their own thing...

Dear Diary,

I am so excited! I got an email notice the other day about a someone speaking about Mediumship in Richland Hills. Being someone who has visitations from ghosts it is always intriguing to meet someone close by who is working in the field. A dear friend of mine who is afraid of her own gift offered to come to the meeting with me tonight. This is a big step for my friend towards being interested in meeting others besides just hanging out with me to explore her own gift. It will be curious to see what unfolds tonight.

As far as what is going on with us at home, I did have some pranksters yesterday. I was walking on our treadmill and a group of three ghosts decided it would be fun to talk all at once. What I heard was three individuals telling me about themselves at one time. When I asked for them to speak one at a time two of them left the room but the other decided to show me what he looked like. I got a quick image of a man dressed in bell bottom blue jeans, platform shoes and a nice light brown shirt with some kind of pattern on it. He just smiled and then left the room. His smile was that teasing kind of look you might get from someone who is enjoying themselves. I continued walking...

Yesterday the woman in the living room came by making her presence known. If I acknowledged her she would leave me alone, if I didn't acknowledge her then she made sure I knew she was there by walking up against me or through me. She doesn't talk to me but lets me know I am rude by not recognizing her being in the room.

Dear Diary,

I was visiting a friend of mine the other day and while I was at her home a young man (a ghost) in his early twenties came up to me. We were sitting in her dinning room and he just started talking about his life. I stopped my conversation with my friend as it was hard to hear her over him. She and I have been friends for a long time so she understood when I told her that we had a visitor.

 I addressed him and asked him to go on as it seemed that he needed to say something important. He then looked at me in a funny way and stopped what he was saying only to gaze at me as if it finally registered that I could hear and see him. Then he became shy and his image started to scramble and he left the room. I then continued my conversation with my friend since he was gone.

Later last night I was sitting in my living room enjoying watching "House of Cards" with my son. My son who is in film school was explaining the dynamics of the plot and while we were watching a women (ghost) walked up to me from the side. This was my time with my son so I didn't acknowledge her. She then came as close to me as possible without touching me. When that didn't get my attention she went right though me. It tickled and I told her to come back another time as that was my time with my son. She didn't come back.  I am still working on boundaries.

Dear Diary,

It has been a busy weekend. I have been visiting my friend Robin while she has been sitting on the roof of a church in Arlington, TX. It was funny when I was leaving on Saturday to visit her that morning a man (ghost) was standing in the kitchen watching me grab my keys to leave. I was in a hurry so I didn't stop to chat. Then as I was backing out in the driveway another man (ghost) was standing in the yard watching me drive away. It kind of surprised me but again I was leaving and didn't stop.

When I got to the church I visited with the volunteers and then went to find the water fountain in one of the side hallways. That is when I ran right into another ghost standing in the atrium. He wasn't looking at me and seemed to be preoccupied watching Robin's team greeting people dropping off food for the "Robin on the Roof" event. When he did finally notice me (ghost) he gave me a look before he disappeared as if saying, "See ya!"  I went on to quench my thirst and then went back out to hang out with the volunteers.

Yesterday was Sunday and I stopped by the church a few times to check on my friend and see if she needed anything. I didn't notice any other ghost activity until last night around 10 pm. I was there when they were locking up the church and had climbed down from the ladder to go home. It was then that caught a ghost leaning out of the window looking to see what we were doing. It made me laugh and this time I said, hello but he leaned back into the closed window of the church. It reminded me of someone leaning out from a pew trying to get a better view of someone walking by. I said my goodbye to my friend on the roof for the night and then went on my way.

Today I hope my friend reaches her goal. It's getting really hot on the roof with the Texas heat and it is even hotter on the roof with the heat radiating off the shingles. She is getting close to her goal...

Friday "Robin on the Roof" & Chakras

Dear Diary,

This morning was exciting as my friend Robin went up on the roof for her "Robin on the Roof" event. She goes up on the roof every year to help bring awareness to the hunger in the world. This year she is hoping to get 150,000 pounds of food donated to the cause which will be distributed to the food pantries and food banks. Donations can also be made on the "Robin on the Roof" website. Every dollar buys 5 pounds of food and will help those in need. She likes to do this event at the beginning of Summer because most people donate during the holidays but it is the Summer when the kids are home from school that the food banks and pantries are low on supplies.

While I was there with her I had a chance to visit with another friend about Chakras who wanted to know more about them and how they work with communicating. I explained to her that we all have these energy centers inside us as they help with the energy that flows through us and out of us. When they are spinning the way that they are designed to spin our physical bodies and energy fields are healthy as they maintain themselves.

The sixth Chakra is the third eye which is important because it is associated with clairvoyance. This allows you to see into the other world. The fifth Chakra allows you to hear the other side. The other Chakras have their purposes and were created to help us live as Multi-dimensional beings as we are both physical and spiritual beings. I did suggest that if she really wanted to learn more about the Chakras a good reference is a book called, The Wheels of Life, "the users guide to the Chakra system," by Anodea, Judith Ph.D
