Angels and visitations

For a lot of people, when arising first thing in the morning, a bit groggy but not asleep, they see someone or something , can be phrased as "out of the corner of their eye". This is the time when their consciousness floats between worlds. Not quite in dream time not quite in present earth time, their ego's are not directing vision, emotion, processing to the brain. This is the twilight time. In this space, many people experience visitations. These are not to be confused with spirit guides or spirit animals, who we call to us and visit us through shifts of consciousness in meditation.

Who or what this "person" or being is who comes in the early morning hours, usually is not important. Why they are there or what they have to teach or offer, can be. Sometimes that too is not important, and sending them away is best. Spirit guides usually come to us in meditation and are invited on some level of our soul's journey. Beings that move through the veils can be "lost souls or tramp souls" and are usually not who/what we want in our bedrooms!

One thing to remember always, is that we are in control of this plane of consciousness. If you do not want to be visited, you can send a message from your minds eye " Go away - you are not welcomed now". You do not have to be open to this experience, or welcome it unbidden into your life. For a lot of people, this is the best way to handle this experience.

Having visitations does not make you special or different , though the ego always likes to feel "better than". It can mean however, that your ability to see through the veils is activated, and if there is a message for you in this experience, it is in receiving a gift from the experience. This gift can be received through your meditating on the "being", and asking for what it has to offer you, ask "what is the gift you bring" , and than send the "visitor" on its way.

Playing with psychic phenomena is not advised, their are so many things we do not understand or can control. But one thing I do believe, and have been taught - that all beings ourselves included are part of the Absolute source, and our role is to awaken in Presence to the All which is our truth, which we can find by going "inside". In this light of love/truth/calm beingness we all share, we accept the gifts of consciousness as it is manifested throughout the universe within ourselves.

This is why, when my cat sees "thing" flying around the room, I do not invite them to materialize. We treat it as "humorous" in my house, oh - Max sees them again. Sometimes they fly around quite quickly, sometimes I allow them to stay a bit - but never long. I know, that any message for me - anything I really need to take note of (which is not ego centered) will come in deep meditation and through my growing awakening. Any thing else, is just entertainment.

Psychic Abilities

Monday morning, drinking coffee answering emails. On vacation this week - lovely time to sit at the kitchen table while my son is sleeping, my cat is sleeping. My husband has moved his computer to the kitchen table to join me, so we can both read and type while the birds chirp outside, and the spirit animals that visit us walk around us.

Sometimes they circle the table a few times, then sit and stare up at us. They never stay long. These are not the ones that fly around the ceiling that intrigue my cat. These are different. So many realms within the veils. I wonder if the morning circling , like the wolves I met in Greece that I wrote about in my book, are part of the collective memory field. When you shift your attention away from psychological time - they are there. It fascinates me - being human. What a hoot. What a busy morning.

I like to watch.... (this is not what you think!)

My husband has discovered the XBox 360, I now spend hours watching him play Doom. I've been watching my son play video games for the last 15 years, so it seemed like a natural progression to now watch my hubby. Watching someone play video games is a great way to spend time together. Its just like watching sports. I'm not playing myself, but I am rooting for my honey to win, we talk strategy, laugh and mourne his deaths together. Many a time, I've yelled out loud "you go my honey, kill those zombies... watch out for the pinky monster, yikes - you need more health, you need the BFGun - oh no - your dead."

I like to watch many things, if I stop and think about it. The sun rise, my cat sleeping, a movie with my son. And lately, I like watching the spirits flying around my apartment.

My cat always notices them first.

At age 50 I am an artist, a psychic healer, a spiritual counselor, an author, a career counselor, a mom, a wife, a daughter, a sister, an aunt, a niece, and a friend. I can see things. I can hear things. What I like more than anything, I've discovered more so of late, is to watch things.

Video games aside, with a deep breath and calm center I love to step aside from my constant thinking, and judging, and watch. The witness is a good phrase for it. I like developing the witness within my consciousness, the Present as Presence. Something marvelous always happens. Notice the unfolding of the world around you, within you , breath and you will sense the swirl of energy - everywhere. They are everywhere.

You are both part of it and not part of it.

I think this is very cool myself. The calm sense of center, the watcher. Part and not part. As my evolution continues, I become younger as I let go of what I think I know. I like this process a lot. I have begun to practice this both in my meditation and in my waking self. It helps deepen the sense of I AM within me, and within us all, and the part of self that still needs to connect with the earth plane simultaneously.

When you meditate, do you sense the watcher within? I'd love to hear your thoughts.

I highly recommend reading Eckhart Tolle's book "The New Earth" - it is truly an amazing teaching, and talks more eloquently than I could ever on this process.

As I look up from writing this, my first post on my new blog - I see that my husband is teleporting to the soul cube lab - gotta go. It's dark and demons are throwing fire balls at him, yikes. My cat is fast asleep and all is well with the world.

If you have a son, or daughter, wife or husband who plays video games - and they say, hey hon - want to watch? Try it, you'll like it.
