WEBVTT 1 00:00:07.440 --> 00:00:11.720 Hello, and welcome to Psychic Teachers. I'm your host Samantha Faye, and 2 00:00:11.839 --> 00:00:16.000 I'm Deb Bowen, and this week's show is sponsored by Better Help. We're 3 00:00:16.039 --> 00:00:19.800 so excited to work with them and promote online therapy to help us all live 4 00:00:19.839 --> 00:00:23.719 a healthier, more balanced life. So Deb, this week, we have 5 00:00:23.839 --> 00:00:28.640 some great questions and stories listeners have sent in and just want to remind everyone 6 00:00:28.800 --> 00:00:31.760 if you have a question or story you want to email to us, you 7 00:00:31.760 --> 00:00:37.159 can always reach out Psychic Teachers at gmail dot com. Would you like to 8 00:00:37.200 --> 00:00:41.439 start us off? Be happy too? So this person says, I've been 9 00:00:41.439 --> 00:00:45.920 on a healing journey for the past nine months, very much my dark night 10 00:00:45.960 --> 00:00:50.000 of the soul. I am thirty, and for all my life I have 11 00:00:50.039 --> 00:00:55.880 been a very active, healthy runner and hiker everything outside. I've also been 12 00:00:55.920 --> 00:01:00.240 a gardener, a yoga and a yoga instructor. However, for the past 13 00:01:00.320 --> 00:01:04.439 nine months, I have been resting, healing and journeying through having both long 14 00:01:04.560 --> 00:01:10.280 COVID and LYME disease. Wow, as you can imagine, it has been 15 00:01:10.319 --> 00:01:15.560 tough. I've had to face who am I without any of those activities and 16 00:01:15.719 --> 00:01:19.519 titles squarely in the face, but pretty much. From the first month, 17 00:01:19.560 --> 00:01:26.200 I started reading and learning about impacts, spirituality, quantum physics, subtle energies 18 00:01:26.200 --> 00:01:30.920 and more. I recently have been in a bit of a lull, and 19 00:01:30.959 --> 00:01:34.599 then your podcast came along. I get to keep learning. One day, 20 00:01:34.640 --> 00:01:38.879 I finally decided to ask out loud guides, could you please show me, 21 00:01:38.920 --> 00:01:44.519 without a doubt, a sign that you are here to help me heal through 22 00:01:44.560 --> 00:01:48.239 this journey. I've been getting in touch with my spirit animals, and I 23 00:01:48.439 --> 00:01:53.519 very strongly resonate with birds. That afternoon, I didn't feel well after dinner, 24 00:01:53.000 --> 00:01:57.400 so I went upstairs tilly on my bed to meditate. I was looking 25 00:01:57.400 --> 00:02:00.799 out our screen door when a hummingbird flew right in front of me. It 26 00:02:00.959 --> 00:02:05.840 hovered in the air, staring straight at me for what felt like a minute. 27 00:02:06.319 --> 00:02:09.280 Then it put its beak straight through the screen door a couple of times, 28 00:02:09.639 --> 00:02:14.599 like a jab at me to say hello. Another evening, I was 29 00:02:14.680 --> 00:02:19.080 laying down when a big blue heron flew across my view in the distance. 30 00:02:19.639 --> 00:02:23.639 I got excited and thanked the universe. Then a couple of days later, 31 00:02:23.680 --> 00:02:28.039 I thought I should look up the spiritual meaning of Erin's but then I thought, 32 00:02:28.120 --> 00:02:31.240 no, I think I'm making a symbol out of nothing. I will 33 00:02:31.280 --> 00:02:36.000 look up the meaning only if it happens again. That evening, I laid 34 00:02:36.000 --> 00:02:39.080 down outside to watch the clouds, and five minutes later, a great blue 35 00:02:39.080 --> 00:02:43.919 hair and flew right over me. It was so exciting. I looked up 36 00:02:43.960 --> 00:02:49.080 the meaning and read that it symbolizes good luck, messages coming, and patience, 37 00:02:49.800 --> 00:02:53.120 which has been my biggest lesson so far. I have a few more 38 00:02:53.159 --> 00:02:55.479 stories of similar things happening with hawks, but I will leave it at that. 39 00:02:55.960 --> 00:03:00.240 Your podcast has given me so much hope and validation. It's amazing how 40 00:03:00.280 --> 00:03:06.039 many times we have to keep reminding ourselves to surrender and trust, and I 41 00:03:06.120 --> 00:03:08.719 need all the reminders I can get right now. So if you end up 42 00:03:08.800 --> 00:03:13.800 using anything from this email to share with your listeners, I would like to 43 00:03:13.840 --> 00:03:17.319 remind anyone with a chronic illness that they are not alone and they are loved. 44 00:03:19.039 --> 00:03:22.840 What a lovely email. Thank you so much for this. This listener 45 00:03:22.919 --> 00:03:27.960 has mentioned, of course, some of my favorite guides from the Animal Kingdom 46 00:03:28.000 --> 00:03:31.039 too, and I really appreciate that. I would just really recommend that if 47 00:03:31.080 --> 00:03:38.400 folks are interested in working with the symbology of four legged winged swimming crawling people 48 00:03:38.719 --> 00:03:43.960 that they might really enjoy working with Keed Andrew's wonderful book called Animal Speaks, 49 00:03:44.280 --> 00:03:47.919 and David Carsons and Jamie Sam's book Medicine Cards. So thank you so much 50 00:03:47.960 --> 00:03:53.159 for this email. Yes, and it's such a good reminder how she mentions 51 00:03:53.199 --> 00:03:58.039 we need to remember to surrender and trust and also to ask for help in 52 00:03:58.080 --> 00:04:01.960 those signs so we are aware that we're not alone. Absolutely and really sending 53 00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:06.360 you some wonderful healing energy for what you've been going through as well. Okay, 54 00:04:06.360 --> 00:04:10.439 our next one says, I have been listening to your book and I 55 00:04:10.479 --> 00:04:14.680 felt so inspired to share my story. In October twenty twenty, I had 56 00:04:14.680 --> 00:04:17.000 a dream. I woke up in the morning and I felt like my first 57 00:04:17.040 --> 00:04:20.920 dog had been in my bedroom. I remembered how I felt about that dog, 58 00:04:20.959 --> 00:04:25.959 and the feelings were profound. He had died in November of twenty ten. 59 00:04:26.439 --> 00:04:29.879 I didn't understand why I was having this dream. Ten years later, 60 00:04:30.519 --> 00:04:32.439 that day at work, I asked a client about a breeder she worked for. 61 00:04:33.040 --> 00:04:38.160 I was inquiring about a small, hypoallergenic dog. She said they had 62 00:04:38.160 --> 00:04:42.399 a new litter and were being separated in December. I wanted a female dog, 63 00:04:42.800 --> 00:04:46.120 and all were already matched with owners, so I left it alone, 64 00:04:46.199 --> 00:04:49.160 but kept thinking, I wonder why I had that visit from my dog Cody. 65 00:04:49.560 --> 00:04:54.360 Am I supposed to finally get another dog. A few days later, 66 00:04:54.399 --> 00:04:58.079 I got word that there was now a female dog available, so I took 67 00:04:58.120 --> 00:05:00.759 the leap of faith and committed to taking her. Timing change with the date 68 00:05:00.800 --> 00:05:04.120 to take her home. I realized she was coming to us ten years to 69 00:05:04.199 --> 00:05:09.360 the exact day when Cody had passed. I felt like he visited me to 70 00:05:09.399 --> 00:05:13.000 remind me of how much I adored him and the strong connection we had. 71 00:05:13.800 --> 00:05:16.519 One year later, my little Tula was adjusting so well to our family in 72 00:05:16.560 --> 00:05:21.079 life. When I was suddenly diagnosed with a form of leukemia. The news 73 00:05:21.160 --> 00:05:26.560 was devastating. My new puppy played such an important part in my daughter's dealing 74 00:05:26.560 --> 00:05:29.839 with my illness. They cared for her while I was sick and in the 75 00:05:29.879 --> 00:05:32.720 hospital. I think it really made them feel closer to me. I believe 76 00:05:32.800 --> 00:05:36.399 this dog was a gift. She has brought love, light, and healing 77 00:05:36.439 --> 00:05:41.439 to our family, and I will close by saying I went into full remission 78 00:05:41.519 --> 00:05:46.040 and am now cancer free. Wow, Well that's a fantastic closing. I 79 00:05:46.079 --> 00:05:49.560 am so happy to hear that. That's great news, and it's also wonderful 80 00:05:49.600 --> 00:05:55.279 confirmation that no matter how many long years have passed since our loved ones, 81 00:05:55.360 --> 00:05:58.160 whether they be too legged, four legged, or wing good friends, have 82 00:05:58.240 --> 00:06:00.720 passed to the other side, they are with us and looking out for us 83 00:06:00.759 --> 00:06:04.680 and coming to us in dreams and meditations and saying heads up, a new 84 00:06:04.720 --> 00:06:09.560 little friend is coming, and this one's going to help you just as much, 85 00:06:09.720 --> 00:06:12.519 if not more than I did. So I love that. That's a 86 00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:15.480 wonderful story, and I'm so glad to know she is cancer free. That's 87 00:06:15.519 --> 00:06:18.199 great. You know, just what dogs do for us as people, as 88 00:06:18.319 --> 00:06:23.759 healing agents, as family members, as huge great supports. They're just don't 89 00:06:23.839 --> 00:06:28.000 enough words to express the amount of love and teaching and wisdom that they can 90 00:06:28.040 --> 00:06:30.800 bring to our lives. True dogs and cat people. I'm just saying, 91 00:06:30.879 --> 00:06:36.279 remember Merlin, Yes, cat people do. Okay. So at our next 92 00:06:36.279 --> 00:06:41.639 one says I had brain surgery in twenty twenty. I could hear music that 93 00:06:41.759 --> 00:06:45.439 wasn't there for anyone else to hear. My head was killing me too. 94 00:06:45.600 --> 00:06:49.079 I thought I had a migraine, but unfortunately it was melanoma on the brain. 95 00:06:49.560 --> 00:06:54.040 I'm doing very well now, I've said scotten into crystals in to row. 96 00:06:54.360 --> 00:06:57.240 Recently, I was about to leave for my treatment when I had a 97 00:06:57.279 --> 00:07:00.560 strong feeling I was to bring a crystal. I felt so I was going 98 00:07:00.600 --> 00:07:02.639 to meet someone and I would give it to them. It was blue lace 99 00:07:02.720 --> 00:07:05.879 agot. Sure enough, I saw a woman sitting nearby at the doctor's I 100 00:07:05.879 --> 00:07:10.439 could see she was going through a tough time. We weren't really close enough 101 00:07:10.480 --> 00:07:14.319 to have a conversation. The whole time, I'm thinking, what do I 102 00:07:14.480 --> 00:07:17.560 say to her without sounding nuts. I caught her eye and said goodbye. 103 00:07:17.920 --> 00:07:21.079 My voice said stop, go back. I looked at her and said, 104 00:07:21.160 --> 00:07:25.560 I have something for you. I dug in my bag and explained to her 105 00:07:25.560 --> 00:07:28.279 the urge I had felt to bring in this crystal. I said, I 106 00:07:28.360 --> 00:07:30.600 knew I was going to meet someone, and here you are. I opened 107 00:07:30.720 --> 00:07:35.000 my hand as she snatched it up. I thought that was odd. Usually 108 00:07:35.040 --> 00:07:40.079 people are like, no, that's okay. We spoke a bit and wished 109 00:07:40.079 --> 00:07:43.240 each other good luck on our journeys. I hope it gave her some good 110 00:07:43.240 --> 00:07:46.879 comfort. I love that story, Samantha. Do you remember when I was 111 00:07:46.920 --> 00:07:51.800 going through a minor procedure in a surgical unit, and I took blue lace 112 00:07:51.879 --> 00:07:55.800 Agot with me, and you were there with me during that time. Do 113 00:07:55.839 --> 00:07:59.879 you remember that? I do, I remember. I remember thinking that more 114 00:08:00.279 --> 00:08:03.800 as I was preparing to go for this procedure, thinking well, you know, 115 00:08:03.839 --> 00:08:05.480 I need a stone with me, and it needs to be a stone 116 00:08:05.519 --> 00:08:11.079 that's connected to the body part and having work done on and that intuition kept 117 00:08:11.079 --> 00:08:13.920 saying Nope, you need blue lay Sagget, and I thought, this has 118 00:08:13.959 --> 00:08:16.399 nothing to do with my throat chakra. The voice kept saying, it doesn't 119 00:08:16.399 --> 00:08:20.959 matter, you need blue lay Saggt, and I realized it's why I was 120 00:08:20.040 --> 00:08:24.439 taking the blue lace Agget was because I needed to speak up and advocate for 121 00:08:24.560 --> 00:08:28.199 myself. So good for this. You doing that. That's great. My 122 00:08:28.319 --> 00:08:33.799 favorite part of this story besides her following her intuition and taking the because it 123 00:08:33.919 --> 00:08:35.879 is weird and risky to be like, hello, I have a crystal for 124 00:08:35.960 --> 00:08:41.480 you. Yeah, it's weird, I know. But my other favorite part 125 00:08:41.600 --> 00:08:43.639 is the way the other person was like, oh, okay, thanks, 126 00:08:45.000 --> 00:08:48.240 And I know when she said I thought that was odd. I know exactly 127 00:08:48.279 --> 00:08:52.720 what she means. I had an acquaintance who was going through a thyroid issue, 128 00:08:52.879 --> 00:08:56.919 and I had this blue La Saget necklace that I really really liked. 129 00:08:56.080 --> 00:09:00.879 I wore it all the time, and I kept getting the little message to 130 00:09:00.919 --> 00:09:01.879 give it to her, and I was like, really, do I have 131 00:09:01.960 --> 00:09:07.240 to part with this? And so I did. I saw her and I 132 00:09:07.279 --> 00:09:11.080 gave her the necklace, and I remember she was like, oh, thank 133 00:09:11.120 --> 00:09:13.000 you, and I was like, oh, yeah, sure. It's just 134 00:09:13.159 --> 00:09:18.000 the strangest thing when you feel a nudge to give someone a crystal and you 135 00:09:18.120 --> 00:09:20.360 give it to them. It's the only time in my life where I don't 136 00:09:20.360 --> 00:09:24.879 get pushback, you know how. Sometimes you'll you'll give something to someone and 137 00:09:24.919 --> 00:09:28.000 they'll be like, no, I can't take that from you, and you 138 00:09:28.039 --> 00:09:28.879 have to be like, no, really you can. I want you to 139 00:09:28.919 --> 00:09:31.159 have this, and there's that whole tug of more back and forth, and 140 00:09:31.159 --> 00:09:35.919 then they do. With crystals, it's weird. They're like it's like they 141 00:09:35.960 --> 00:09:37.840 know, yes, this is for me, and you are supposed to pass 142 00:09:37.879 --> 00:09:41.759 this on to me. And I just think that's the magic of working with 143 00:09:41.840 --> 00:09:45.240 crystals and our intuition. If you walked into my house and handed me a 144 00:09:45.320 --> 00:09:48.240 rock, I'd know that you knew there was a reason I needed, right, 145 00:09:48.360 --> 00:09:50.759 I mean, I trust that, all right, This nixt one says 146 00:09:50.200 --> 00:09:54.399 I've been a listener since November twenty twenty one. It's a very sad story 147 00:09:54.399 --> 00:09:58.159 that led me to you all. Two months prior to my husband and I 148 00:09:58.200 --> 00:10:03.200 lost our twenty three year old son to a very rare cancer that currently has 149 00:10:03.240 --> 00:10:07.240 no treatment. We are so so sorry to hear that. I was so 150 00:10:07.320 --> 00:10:13.039 overwhelmed with grief and sadness that while driving I had to pull over and I 151 00:10:13.200 --> 00:10:18.279 just needed to listen to something. I opened my podcast app and found your 152 00:10:18.279 --> 00:10:22.879 show. The current episode of the time was an interview you did with Joe 153 00:10:22.960 --> 00:10:26.840 mcquillian on his book, My Search for Christopher. It saved me, and 154 00:10:26.960 --> 00:10:31.600 since then your show has brought so much comfort for me. Okay, her 155 00:10:31.639 --> 00:10:35.720 question goes on, but I have to pause a minute deb because I did 156 00:10:35.120 --> 00:10:39.879 send this email to Joe because I just thought that was so wild. He 157 00:10:41.000 --> 00:10:45.080 and I think you were on vacation with your sister, So he and I 158 00:10:45.120 --> 00:10:48.720 did that interview, just the two of us, and it was a while 159 00:10:48.759 --> 00:10:50.960 ago. It was like a year and a half or two years ago, 160 00:10:52.879 --> 00:10:56.240 And just think about that, like it's hard to go through the archives of 161 00:10:56.320 --> 00:11:01.000 our show. Right if you open up our podcast what app you're listening to, 162 00:11:01.120 --> 00:11:05.840 you have to scroll through the archives. So just think about what it 163 00:11:05.919 --> 00:11:11.159 was for her to just open up her podcast app, find our show and 164 00:11:11.200 --> 00:11:16.879 it's just playing that episode. Isn't that really fascinating? Absolutely? As much 165 00:11:16.960 --> 00:11:22.039 as I fuss and moan and complain and hate have a love hate relationship with 166 00:11:22.120 --> 00:11:28.240 technology, I also think there's some kind of spiritual something that sometimes happens that 167 00:11:28.679 --> 00:11:33.799 guides and governs how technology works for us, and it puts things in our 168 00:11:33.840 --> 00:11:35.799 path when we need it. Yeah, I love that. Okay, So 169 00:11:35.840 --> 00:11:41.840 she continues, I just finished your Intuition or Imagination show. I had something 170 00:11:41.879 --> 00:11:43.840 happened to me that I'd like you to weigh in on. I mentioned my 171 00:11:43.919 --> 00:11:48.919 son died of a very rare cancer. After he passed, my husband and 172 00:11:48.960 --> 00:11:52.960 I created a foundation, nonprofit to raise money for research going towards developing a 173 00:11:54.000 --> 00:11:56.919 treatment for this cancer. About three weeks ago, I popped into the grocery 174 00:11:56.960 --> 00:12:01.000 store and right when I walked in, I passed an endcap where magazines were. 175 00:12:01.600 --> 00:12:05.000 This one in particular grabbed me. I picked it up and flicked through 176 00:12:05.039 --> 00:12:09.720 it. It was a British interior design magazine that was very different from my 177 00:12:09.799 --> 00:12:15.519 normal taste. I immediately wanted it, but saw that it was seventeen dollars 178 00:12:15.600 --> 00:12:18.360 plus it was a UK publication. I immediately put it back and went on 179 00:12:18.399 --> 00:12:22.919 with my shopping, but I couldn't stop thinking about buying that magazine. By 180 00:12:22.919 --> 00:12:26.399 the end of my shopping I ran over and grabbed it impulsively and bought it. 181 00:12:26.759 --> 00:12:31.120 I spent a long time with it, looking at it and almost wondering 182 00:12:31.159 --> 00:12:35.399 why it's the opposite of my design taste. I even went on to their 183 00:12:35.440 --> 00:12:39.720 website and read many of the articles, again not knowing why. Then a 184 00:12:39.759 --> 00:12:43.320 few weeks later, my husband informed me that a woman from the UK had 185 00:12:43.399 --> 00:12:46.759 contacted us through our foundation's website. She had just lost her husband to the 186 00:12:46.799 --> 00:12:52.399 same cancer that our son had and wanted to direct in lieu of flowers money 187 00:12:52.480 --> 00:12:56.600 to our foundation. I noted her name, and out of curiosity, decided 188 00:12:56.639 --> 00:13:01.559 to look her up online. I was stunned. She happens to be a 189 00:13:01.600 --> 00:13:05.200 writer for that very magazine I bought that day. What just happened there? 190 00:13:05.960 --> 00:13:11.240 Deb was talking about Manifestation later on in the podcast, and I've been thinking 191 00:13:11.240 --> 00:13:18.159 and wondering was that intuition or manifestation that happened without me consciously being aware of 192 00:13:18.200 --> 00:13:20.879 it. There have been quite a few little gifts I've received since losing my 193 00:13:20.960 --> 00:13:26.080 son, but this one just stumps me. I think it's more than intuition 194 00:13:26.120 --> 00:13:31.159 and manifestation. I think it's bigger than that, and I think both of 195 00:13:31.159 --> 00:13:35.519 those are pretty big. I believe that there's it's so much that connectedness stuff 196 00:13:35.559 --> 00:13:41.360 and I talk about all the time on this podcast. I believe that this 197 00:13:41.399 --> 00:13:46.679 woman picking up that magazine and the woman whose husband had died became pieces of 198 00:13:46.720 --> 00:13:52.320 a puzzle that were waiting to be fitted together, and the universe had orchestrated 199 00:13:52.360 --> 00:13:56.919 this to bring that about. That STEP's take on that, no, I 200 00:13:58.080 --> 00:14:01.879 one hundred percent agree. I think this was her son and probably this woman 201 00:14:01.919 --> 00:14:07.200 in the UK's husband working together, and I think that's how they continue their 202 00:14:07.279 --> 00:14:09.639 work with us on the other side. I think that's certainly one way to 203 00:14:09.759 --> 00:14:15.159 do that. Absolutely. I remember I did a reading years ago for a 204 00:14:15.159 --> 00:14:18.080 woman who had lost her daughter, and one of the things towards the end 205 00:14:18.080 --> 00:14:20.960 of the reading the daughter said was, Oh, mommy, a friend is 206 00:14:20.960 --> 00:14:24.120 coming to you who went through the same thing, and you two are going 207 00:14:24.200 --> 00:14:28.279 to work together. And she was like, I don't know about that. 208 00:14:28.720 --> 00:14:31.559 And so I asked the daughter, like, give me some more information, 209 00:14:33.200 --> 00:14:35.080 and she said, she's going to be in the neighborhood. And then she 210 00:14:35.080 --> 00:14:39.039 showed me a pool, and I was like, do you have a neighborhood 211 00:14:39.080 --> 00:14:41.360 pool? And she was like, no, we have a pool in our 212 00:14:41.360 --> 00:14:45.000 backyard. But I don't know, and about I don't know. Eight or 213 00:14:45.080 --> 00:14:48.200 nine months later, she emailed me and said that a woman moved into her 214 00:14:48.240 --> 00:14:52.919 neighborhood. She had also lost her daughter. They didn't know that at the 215 00:14:52.960 --> 00:14:56.679 time. It's not something you share when you're meeting someone for the first time 216 00:14:56.720 --> 00:15:00.320 and welcoming them to the neighborhood. But shortly after moving in, the woman 217 00:15:00.399 --> 00:15:03.200 wanted to put a pool in her yard, and so she stopped over my 218 00:15:03.320 --> 00:15:05.960 client's house to say, like, hey, who put the pool in your 219 00:15:07.039 --> 00:15:09.240 yard? I'd like to use the same guy, And they started talking. 220 00:15:09.440 --> 00:15:13.360 Turned out they lost their daughters in very similar ways, and they started a 221 00:15:13.360 --> 00:15:18.000 grief support group in town for each other and other parents who had lost people. 222 00:15:18.039 --> 00:15:22.519 And I really feel that those daughters in heaven conspire to get those two 223 00:15:22.559 --> 00:15:28.360 women to meet. You know, Samantha, There's something happening with universal energy 224 00:15:28.639 --> 00:15:31.480 about grief right now that I think is really important. I mean, the 225 00:15:31.720 --> 00:15:37.120 four questions that we have read so far have a lot to do with grief. 226 00:15:37.559 --> 00:15:41.399 I have recently been invited by two churches to come and speak about grief 227 00:15:41.399 --> 00:15:45.399 and about the book I wrote about grief. And I may be wrong about 228 00:15:45.399 --> 00:15:54.240 this, but I think that after so much trauma with grief after and during 229 00:15:54.320 --> 00:15:58.200 COVID, that we're just kind of coming to and shaking our heads and saying, 230 00:15:58.320 --> 00:16:02.480 and I mean culturally and universally as people on this planet, we're coming 231 00:16:02.480 --> 00:16:07.799 to a point of Wow, we really need to have a moment here to 232 00:16:07.879 --> 00:16:11.919 honor people who have been here, to really look at the emotions that we're 233 00:16:11.960 --> 00:16:18.000 feeling that we've stuffed away because it wasn't comfortable or safe to express them for 234 00:16:18.039 --> 00:16:21.960 such a long time. And I think that there's a lot that's just bubbling 235 00:16:22.039 --> 00:16:25.279 up. And we have something that we call compounded grieving, where we grieve 236 00:16:25.320 --> 00:16:30.120 more than one loss at a time. There's so much grief and loss going 237 00:16:30.120 --> 00:16:33.159 on in the world right now that Universal Energy and our loved ones and our 238 00:16:33.159 --> 00:16:38.480 guides and angels on the other side are recognizing that and coming up with ways 239 00:16:38.519 --> 00:16:44.840 to facilitate us to have a way to express our emotions on the planet right 240 00:16:44.879 --> 00:16:47.639 now. These emails are a part of the proof of that. To me, 241 00:16:47.759 --> 00:16:52.440 at least, this idea of coming together and creating a foundation or a 242 00:16:52.440 --> 00:16:56.799 support group, or asking a presenter to come and speak, all of that 243 00:16:56.919 --> 00:17:00.399 is so important because we really can't grieve it alone. We've got to share 244 00:17:00.440 --> 00:17:04.400 it. Oh absolutely. I called a therapist friend of mine and said, 245 00:17:04.599 --> 00:17:08.279 can I just can we make some appointments to talking and that weather three or 246 00:17:08.319 --> 00:17:12.160 four times and it was very helpful. And I certainly did that with other 247 00:17:12.200 --> 00:17:17.039 losses over the years in my life where I have film so salt professional help 248 00:17:17.119 --> 00:17:19.359 for that. Yeah, I think it's really important to do that. Okay, 249 00:17:19.440 --> 00:17:23.920 we have some more stories and emails and some uplifting ones too. We 250 00:17:25.000 --> 00:17:29.799 promise to share, but first let's take a quick break. This week's show 251 00:17:29.920 --> 00:17:33.440 is sponsored by Better Help. Many of the questions and stories listeners sent in 252 00:17:33.480 --> 00:17:37.160 this month are centered on grief, which is a loss no one should carry 253 00:17:37.160 --> 00:17:41.599 alone. Years ago, a therapist said to me, the only way to 254 00:17:41.640 --> 00:17:45.759 release grief is to share it with a witness. As listeners know, Deb 255 00:17:45.759 --> 00:17:48.559 and I are huge advocates of therapy. It's so helpful to have an opportunity 256 00:17:48.599 --> 00:17:52.640 to sit with someone who can help you process your thoughts, emotions, and 257 00:17:52.680 --> 00:17:56.119 experiences.

And now let's get back to the show. Deb Would you 271 00:18:55.519 --> 00:18:59.279 like to share our next question? I certainly would, Sanantha. This person 272 00:18:59.359 --> 00:19:04.559 says, my father was hospitalized in January for a chest infection and then transferred 273 00:19:04.599 --> 00:19:08.839 to a rehab facility. He was doing very well until he began to regress. 274 00:19:10.359 --> 00:19:12.480 We got the dreaded call last month that he will have to remain in 275 00:19:12.519 --> 00:19:18.319 the facility and receive long term care. My father has mobility issues and congestive 276 00:19:18.319 --> 00:19:22.200 heart failure. Lately, he remains in his bed and is completely out of 277 00:19:22.200 --> 00:19:26.240 it. Well, I can say he was out of it yesterday. He 278 00:19:26.680 --> 00:19:30.400 thinks he's back in his hometown. When my brother went to see him yesterday, 279 00:19:30.599 --> 00:19:34.559 he told my brother that he can hear his grandparents calling him. Could 280 00:19:34.559 --> 00:19:38.119 this be part of his congestive heart failure and lack of oxygen? But my 281 00:19:38.200 --> 00:19:41.759 heart tells me something else. My mother told me to be prepared for the 282 00:19:41.799 --> 00:19:45.559 inevitable. I believe my mom has a deeper sixth sense than I do. 283 00:19:47.279 --> 00:19:49.720 Thank you for listening, Samantha. I can't tell you how many times over 284 00:19:49.759 --> 00:19:53.720 the years I've heard this story. How many times in my own life. 285 00:19:53.920 --> 00:19:59.039 I have watched people I love experience this. We there are books and books 286 00:19:59.039 --> 00:20:03.799 and books and books books written about this. I remember when my grandmother was 287 00:20:03.920 --> 00:20:06.599 dying. She would be back in her where she lived with my parents, 288 00:20:06.640 --> 00:20:08.720 and she would be back in her room, just talking and laughing and carrying 289 00:20:08.839 --> 00:20:12.079 on. And my mom would go back to see her and she'd say, 290 00:20:12.119 --> 00:20:15.319 Mama, who are you talking to? And she'd be talking to her sister 291 00:20:15.359 --> 00:20:18.480 who had been dead a long time, and Mama would say, well, 292 00:20:18.720 --> 00:20:21.839 you can you see her? And she said, well, of course. 293 00:20:22.319 --> 00:20:23.720 And she'd say, well, what's she doing And she said, she's come 294 00:20:23.720 --> 00:20:26.200 over to tell me what it's like on the other side. Well, yeah, 295 00:20:26.240 --> 00:20:30.599 I mean, if you read Visions, Trips and Crowded Rooms, that's 296 00:20:30.720 --> 00:20:36.880 one of my favorite books. It's just stories recounted by hospice nurses and doctors 297 00:20:37.000 --> 00:20:41.440 who have witnessed exactly that, people seeing and talking to their loved ones on 298 00:20:41.480 --> 00:20:44.839 the other side. And a lot of skeptics will say, oh, well, 299 00:20:44.839 --> 00:20:48.440 that's just the brain shutting down. However, so many of those stories, 300 00:20:48.920 --> 00:20:53.079 the people are talking to loved ones who have passed over. Maybe a 301 00:20:53.119 --> 00:20:56.559 week prior, and because the loved one was so sick, they didn't want 302 00:20:56.599 --> 00:21:00.559 to say, hey, Dad, I know you're, you know, dealing 303 00:21:00.559 --> 00:21:03.160 with congestive heart failure and you're facing death, but p as, your sister 304 00:21:03.240 --> 00:21:07.559 died two days ago, so they keep that information from him. And then 305 00:21:07.680 --> 00:21:12.000 he starts talking about seeing the sister in spirit. That's not your brain shutting 306 00:21:12.000 --> 00:21:15.000 down. That's how could he have known that? You know what I mean? 307 00:21:15.480 --> 00:21:21.759 I think they are beautiful ways that we are being prepared sometimes for that 308 00:21:21.880 --> 00:21:26.359 crossing over process. I do too. When I was on Beyond Belief with 309 00:21:26.400 --> 00:21:30.559 George Nor, I was able to share audio I had recorded of my dad 310 00:21:32.000 --> 00:21:37.720 talking about how every night, when he falls asleep, a staircase opens up 311 00:21:37.759 --> 00:21:42.400 and he sees his dad and his childhood dog becketing him over and how his 312 00:21:42.480 --> 00:21:45.839 dad told him. My dad worded it. He said, they're going to 313 00:21:45.880 --> 00:21:49.240 take all of this off of me, and he, you know, Moshi 314 00:21:49.319 --> 00:21:52.640 swept his arm over his torso and so I don't know if he meant his 315 00:21:52.720 --> 00:21:57.680 body, his karma, his regret or fear about dying, but he said, 316 00:21:57.720 --> 00:22:00.279 They're going to take all of this off of me, and I'm going 317 00:22:00.319 --> 00:22:04.359 to be free, and he said, they promised me. It's wonderful and 318 00:22:04.440 --> 00:22:10.720 beautiful over there. It's it's just absolutely mind blowing to listen to. So 319 00:22:10.759 --> 00:22:14.559 when you experience it for yourself, there's there's just nothing like it. It's 320 00:22:14.599 --> 00:22:18.279 so comforting to know, as we say all the time week after week on 321 00:22:18.359 --> 00:22:22.160 this show, we're never alone. No we're not. You know, when 322 00:22:22.160 --> 00:22:26.960 my dad was dying, he started trying to take off the hospital gap that 323 00:22:27.000 --> 00:22:32.119 he was wearing. It was very agitated, and so I went down to 324 00:22:32.160 --> 00:22:34.559 the nurses station and asked the nurse to come and see if she could make 325 00:22:34.640 --> 00:22:40.000 him comfortable. And she came in and looked at him and talked to him 326 00:22:40.000 --> 00:22:42.519 for a few minutes, and my sister and I had kind of gone outside 327 00:22:42.519 --> 00:22:45.480 the room in the hallway to give her time to do whatever she needed to 328 00:22:45.480 --> 00:22:48.599 do with him. And she came out and she said, okay, he's 329 00:22:48.640 --> 00:22:52.880 okay now, and we went back in and what she had done was taken 330 00:22:52.920 --> 00:22:56.279 the gown off of him and moved the covers down to the bottom of the 331 00:22:56.319 --> 00:23:00.559 bed, and my sister and I looked at each other and both turned away 332 00:23:00.680 --> 00:23:03.160 and went back out into the hallway said to the nurse. We've never seen 333 00:23:03.160 --> 00:23:06.720 our father without clothes on, and we're not going to do that. Now. 334 00:23:06.880 --> 00:23:11.640 You got to come up with another plan. And so she came in 335 00:23:11.720 --> 00:23:14.799 and she pulled the sheet up over him, and he was fine. He 336 00:23:14.920 --> 00:23:18.880 was calm by then. But she said to us that that wanting to shed 337 00:23:18.920 --> 00:23:25.640 the clothes, but that agitation about having something on the body was a very 338 00:23:25.640 --> 00:23:30.119 common process in the act of dying, and i'd not heard that. I've 339 00:23:30.119 --> 00:23:32.680 read it since, but that was new to me. But what you just 340 00:23:32.880 --> 00:23:37.240 said about your dad making that motion of letting things go, I think that's 341 00:23:37.279 --> 00:23:40.440 part of what my daddy was doing, was saying, you know, I 342 00:23:40.480 --> 00:23:45.240 don't need this body stuff anymore. Once we got past that, he never 343 00:23:45.279 --> 00:23:48.039 did it again. That was the only time he had that level of agitation. 344 00:23:48.319 --> 00:23:51.920 But I've looked at it differently once I got past the throes of it, 345 00:23:52.079 --> 00:23:53.920 you know. Yeah. Well, if no one has heard of that 346 00:23:53.960 --> 00:23:59.079 book, do check it out. Visions, Trips and Crowded Rooms. It's 347 00:23:59.160 --> 00:24:03.440 such a beautiful book and very very comforting. Okay. Our next one says, 348 00:24:03.799 --> 00:24:07.359 I absolutely love listening to your podcast. I found it after losing my 349 00:24:07.400 --> 00:24:11.920 son Ethan in twenty twenty and Psychic Teachers has brought so much comfort to me. 350 00:24:11.240 --> 00:24:14.720 Well, thank you so much, and we are so sorry for your 351 00:24:14.759 --> 00:24:17.920 loss. He was my whole world, and losing him was a shock. 352 00:24:18.480 --> 00:24:22.799 I was basically useless for several months. However, I feel the experience of 353 00:24:22.839 --> 00:24:26.400 losing him has triggered a major spiritual awakening. I always felt very sensitive and 354 00:24:26.519 --> 00:24:30.839 receptive to messages and dreams prior to this, but since losing him, I 355 00:24:30.920 --> 00:24:36.880 received messages from him that I know are not my imagination. The best gift 356 00:24:36.880 --> 00:24:40.480 of all that I received from Ethan after his passing was on a day that 357 00:24:40.519 --> 00:24:44.559 I was feeling very down. He was autistic, and a common thing that 358 00:24:44.640 --> 00:24:49.000 kids with autism do is rewind and fast forward repeatedly throughout movies and shows. 359 00:24:49.599 --> 00:24:53.960 Ethan would rewind and rewatch the same five seconds of a show. Many times. 360 00:24:55.519 --> 00:25:00.000 It was impossible to watch with him if he was using a tablet. 361 00:25:00.039 --> 00:25:03.920 Anyway, I missed hearing the sounds of his laugh and his movies. Even 362 00:25:03.960 --> 00:25:07.240 though he was thirteen going on fourteen, he still watched sweet little cartoons and 363 00:25:07.319 --> 00:25:11.880 movies for young children. I locked into his movie account on my TV and 364 00:25:11.960 --> 00:25:15.799 decided to watch one of his movies. It was tinker Bell and the Great 365 00:25:15.839 --> 00:25:21.400 Fairy Rescue. Oh my kids loved that one too. Prior to his passing, 366 00:25:21.440 --> 00:25:22.720 I've been trying to get him to watch it with me because it had 367 00:25:22.759 --> 00:25:26.839 been a while, but he always refused. So I said it aloud, 368 00:25:26.079 --> 00:25:30.359 well, you're gonna have to watch it with me now, with a laugh, 369 00:25:30.440 --> 00:25:33.640 hoping He was there listening and smiling when I turned it on. It 370 00:25:33.680 --> 00:25:34.880 was, of course, in the middle of the movie. But at the 371 00:25:34.960 --> 00:25:40.079 moment I turned it on, a song started playing, and the song said, 372 00:25:40.480 --> 00:25:45.319 hold my hand and fly, never say goodbye. Cross the open sky, 373 00:25:45.960 --> 00:25:49.000 leave the world behind. I will be all right if you stay by 374 00:25:49.039 --> 00:25:53.720 my side, Spring and summer, love and laughter. We live happy ever 375 00:25:53.839 --> 00:25:59.400 after. We'll fly higher than we thought we'd be. You've shown me how 376 00:25:59.440 --> 00:26:03.559 to believe. Hold my hand in fly, never say goodbye. I just 377 00:26:03.640 --> 00:26:07.160 knew the song was strategically timed by Ethan and his guides prior to his death. 378 00:26:07.599 --> 00:26:11.480 This was fairly soon after his passing, maybe five or six weeks later. 379 00:26:12.880 --> 00:26:17.480 Wow, okay, once again, just like our earlier email, we 380 00:26:17.599 --> 00:26:22.480 have a listener, and that email randomly opening up a podcast and it randomly 381 00:26:22.519 --> 00:26:26.079 plays the podcast she needs to hear to help her with her grief. And 382 00:26:26.119 --> 00:26:30.000 then in this one, she opens up this movie she'd wanted to watch with 383 00:26:30.039 --> 00:26:33.960 her son Ethan, and even though she hadn't seen it, it's just happens 384 00:26:34.000 --> 00:26:40.799 to start playing halfway through when this song that is so perfectly in alignment with 385 00:26:40.839 --> 00:26:44.799 what Ethan would say to her if he was physically next to her. It's 386 00:26:44.839 --> 00:26:48.160 what he's able to say to her now that he's spiritually right next to her. 387 00:26:48.279 --> 00:26:52.960 Isn't that just so beautiful? You know? I just think those things 388 00:26:52.960 --> 00:26:59.519 are absolute magic. I don't that's really all I know to just say about 389 00:26:59.559 --> 00:27:03.880 that. With movies, with songs, with books, I mean, I 390 00:27:03.960 --> 00:27:08.319 certainly believe, and those library angels that guide us to open a book to 391 00:27:08.400 --> 00:27:15.519 exactly the passage we need, or click on the radio or I don't know, 392 00:27:15.599 --> 00:27:19.519 Spotify or whatever and there's a song that's speaking exactly the words that you 393 00:27:19.599 --> 00:27:23.039 need to hear at that moment. I so believe that to be true. 394 00:27:23.680 --> 00:27:33.119 And I'm sometimes in awe that my loved ones, my guides, the universal 395 00:27:33.240 --> 00:27:40.200 energy, whatever it is, conspire to spend that time and energy to just 396 00:27:40.400 --> 00:27:45.440 focus on little me and my little needs and I'm just amazed at that when 397 00:27:45.440 --> 00:27:48.680 the whole great big world out there, so many people, all needing so 398 00:27:48.759 --> 00:27:52.279 much, how do they do that to take care of us all in so 399 00:27:52.319 --> 00:27:56.839 many different ways? And it's a wonderful thing. Well, you know, 400 00:27:56.960 --> 00:27:59.359 Deb, I'm glad you just said, like, you know, little me 401 00:27:59.519 --> 00:28:03.839 in this big, big world, because sometimes we will kind of pooh pooh 402 00:28:03.880 --> 00:28:07.759 those signs and validations because we're like, who me. I mean, just 403 00:28:07.880 --> 00:28:11.039 this weekend, I celebrated my birthday and I always like to do a little 404 00:28:11.039 --> 00:28:15.200 staycation and I'll just get a hotel room right on the beach and that way, 405 00:28:15.240 --> 00:28:18.559 like friends and family, whoever wants to pop down can pop down and 406 00:28:18.680 --> 00:28:22.880 enjoy the beach with us. And so I chose this hotel that always reminds 407 00:28:22.920 --> 00:28:27.119 me of my mother in law, Maggie, because it's where we celebrated all 408 00:28:27.160 --> 00:28:33.000 of all of our milestones, you know, like all of my kids baptisms 409 00:28:33.039 --> 00:28:37.279 were there, all of their first communion parties, were there, their graduation 410 00:28:37.400 --> 00:28:41.240 parties. So I always think about Maggie when I'm there and the kids and 411 00:28:41.279 --> 00:28:45.000 I had this beautiful day and this lovely dinner overlooking the ocean, and you 412 00:28:45.039 --> 00:28:48.000 know, we were just feeling very very grateful, and we go to that 413 00:28:48.559 --> 00:28:53.160 at this hotel has this beautiful you know where how it's like it's like a 414 00:28:53.640 --> 00:28:57.839 I don't know, it looks like the Garden of Eden beautiful. And so 415 00:28:57.880 --> 00:29:00.599 we're just and they have these pods and these hammocks there. So we're just 416 00:29:00.599 --> 00:29:03.960 sitting there and we were talking about Nana and how we miss Nana and how 417 00:29:04.000 --> 00:29:07.119 she would love this. And we go back up to our hotel room and 418 00:29:07.160 --> 00:29:11.880 we're walking down the corridor and there's a quarter right on the floor of the 419 00:29:12.599 --> 00:29:15.920 hotel corridor and I was like, look, girls, Nana, she's with 420 00:29:17.000 --> 00:29:19.319 us. She heard us talking about her. And you know, one of 421 00:29:19.359 --> 00:29:22.759 my kids was kind of like okay, mom, and the other one was 422 00:29:22.799 --> 00:29:25.200 like, oh, what's the date on it? And you know, so 423 00:29:25.640 --> 00:29:30.160 it's funny they're different reactions, and a part of me felt the way both 424 00:29:30.240 --> 00:29:32.000 my kids, Like a part of me was like, okay, someone just 425 00:29:32.079 --> 00:29:36.079 dropped a quarter rushing to the elevator, and another part of me was like, 426 00:29:36.160 --> 00:29:37.799 no, no, no, that was Maggie saying I'm with you. 427 00:29:37.839 --> 00:29:41.680 I heard you. I love you too, So thank you for saying that, 428 00:29:41.720 --> 00:29:44.319 because sometimes those little things will happen, and you're like, am I 429 00:29:44.440 --> 00:29:48.119 just making this more magical than it is? You know. One of the 430 00:29:48.119 --> 00:29:51.920 things I do, Samantha, when I need comforting about the loss of gene 431 00:29:51.920 --> 00:29:55.160 the palm readers, I go back and I listen to the episode you and 432 00:29:55.200 --> 00:29:57.640 I did about her, and to the episode that Joel and I did about 433 00:29:57.640 --> 00:30:03.640 her. In that episode, I talk a lot about my asking her to 434 00:30:03.759 --> 00:30:07.480 leave me quarters and nickels, and how of course she has done that since 435 00:30:07.480 --> 00:30:11.279 she's died. Not pennies, not dimes. I specifically ask for quarters and 436 00:30:11.400 --> 00:30:14.759 nickels, and that was unconscious. I didn't do that on purpose, but 437 00:30:14.839 --> 00:30:18.319 indeed I will find quarters and nickels and go Okay, Jean, thanks a 438 00:30:18.319 --> 00:30:22.240 lot. I'm so glad to know you're paying attention down here. I don't 439 00:30:22.279 --> 00:30:25.599 doubt that in the least. All Right, what's our next onesday? Okay, 440 00:30:25.680 --> 00:30:29.920 our next one? Says? Samantha mentioned in a podcast what she thinks 441 00:30:29.920 --> 00:30:34.000 about people with cognitive issues. To sum up, guides and spirits are all 442 00:30:34.039 --> 00:30:38.440 around them. My mom hasn't been diagnosed with anything specific, but she keeps 443 00:30:38.480 --> 00:30:42.640 repeating herself, I'm so worried about her, and it is devastating to lose 444 00:30:42.680 --> 00:30:48.000 someone you love who is still here physically. My mom has been obsessed with 445 00:30:48.039 --> 00:30:52.240 bluebirds lately. When my grandma was alive, she would bring her camper up 446 00:30:52.279 --> 00:30:56.759 to my parents' house and stay the summer. My mom and grandma would have 447 00:30:56.799 --> 00:31:02.240 coffee and watch the bluebirds. She bought a white ceramic bird and painted it 448 00:31:02.279 --> 00:31:06.319 like a bluebird. We bought her a bird feeder, but no bluebirds have 449 00:31:06.440 --> 00:31:10.079 come to it. The day after I heard the podcast I mentioned earlier, 450 00:31:10.160 --> 00:31:12.799 I went to my parents house and my mom told me that a bluebird was 451 00:31:12.920 --> 00:31:18.640 in her house and she had caught it and released it outside. Total confirmation 452 00:31:18.880 --> 00:31:22.720 that my grandma was with her brings me peace. Knowing she is looking out 453 00:31:22.759 --> 00:31:26.960 for her. Thank you for helping me process that miracle. About twenty years 454 00:31:26.960 --> 00:31:33.200 ago, one of my husband's best friends passed from pancreatic cancer. We lost 455 00:31:33.279 --> 00:31:37.720 touch with his wife over the years. My cousin was recently diagnosed with pancreatic 456 00:31:37.839 --> 00:31:42.200 cancer. I was talking to a friend on the phone about my cousin, 457 00:31:42.240 --> 00:31:47.039 and normally I would also talk about my two aunts who passed from the same 458 00:31:47.119 --> 00:31:52.039 cancer. For some reason, I talked about Randy and his wife again. 459 00:31:52.119 --> 00:31:55.319 The next day, when I got back from lunch, I had a message 460 00:31:55.319 --> 00:31:59.319 that his wife left something for me. She had left me pictures from when 461 00:31:59.319 --> 00:32:04.720 we camped when Randy was alive. I told my coworker about how Randy took 462 00:32:04.720 --> 00:32:07.200 out my back seat to get my keys that I had locked in my trunk 463 00:32:07.319 --> 00:32:12.039 and the other set was fifty miles away. I told her this before I 464 00:32:12.079 --> 00:32:15.240 looked at the picture. There was a picture of that car in the mix. 465 00:32:15.680 --> 00:32:17.680 I am new to awakening, and this was my sign that I am 466 00:32:17.720 --> 00:32:22.079 actually awakening. You always give advice on how to look for signs and trust 467 00:32:22.200 --> 00:32:25.519 the signs. Now sure I would have thought of these as signs. Without 468 00:32:25.559 --> 00:32:30.119 all of your advice, I probably would have just thought it was coincidence. 469 00:32:30.920 --> 00:32:36.279 Oh boy, I don't believe in coincidence of Samantha, do you No, 470 00:32:36.519 --> 00:32:39.000 I do not. I think it is all design, and I think I 471 00:32:39.160 --> 00:32:45.519 prefer to use the word synchronicity, absolutely, divine intervention, synchronicity, some 472 00:32:45.599 --> 00:32:52.440 kind of connecting the dots that's bigger than us. I have noticed that everything 473 00:32:52.480 --> 00:32:58.359 in my life gets clearer and more focused and more meaningful and understood by me 474 00:32:58.720 --> 00:33:04.640 when I'm away and aware and I think that's what this listener is trying to 475 00:33:04.720 --> 00:33:09.920 say that as she's going through this awakening, she's aware that these are more 476 00:33:09.960 --> 00:33:15.960 than coincidences. That the bluebird flying into her mother's window was her home, 477 00:33:15.079 --> 00:33:20.000 was her grandmother's way of saying, here's your bluebird. I'm still with you. 478 00:33:20.559 --> 00:33:24.119 And these pictures popping up when she's thinking about this friend who had passed 479 00:33:24.200 --> 00:33:29.079 from the same illness, it's not a coincidence. It's spirits saying I'm with 480 00:33:29.160 --> 00:33:31.680 you, I'm listening to you, I'm grieving with you, I'm helping you. 481 00:33:32.160 --> 00:33:37.599 And when we are awake and aware of all those subtle things happening in 482 00:33:37.599 --> 00:33:42.279 our day, it helps us to feel so much more connected and grateful, 483 00:33:42.759 --> 00:33:46.039 and it helps us to make sense out of some of the tragedy and sadness 484 00:33:46.160 --> 00:33:52.000 that comes into our life, you know, like like it is it what 485 00:33:52.200 --> 00:33:54.160 more? Who sit into every life? A little rain must fall. We 486 00:33:54.240 --> 00:33:59.839 have to have those tragedies in our life, unfortunately, but when we have 487 00:34:00.519 --> 00:34:06.200 these moments of awareness of why they're happening and how there's help out there and 488 00:34:06.279 --> 00:34:13.239 support, it makes that rainfall more bearable. Indeed, it does, absolutely 489 00:34:13.239 --> 00:34:16.159 it does, even when sometimes it feels like a mother love and hurricane. 490 00:34:16.239 --> 00:34:22.920 Right, deb All right. Our next one says about three weeks ago, 491 00:34:22.039 --> 00:34:25.480 I got up around four am to get ready for a road trip. As 492 00:34:25.519 --> 00:34:29.280 I was getting ready to leave my home, I went back into my room 493 00:34:29.320 --> 00:34:32.320 to grab my black Tourmaline bracelet and sell a Nite bracelet. I sprayed them 494 00:34:32.320 --> 00:34:37.599 both with Samantha's Crystal Clear or spray. I decided to wear both bracelets on 495 00:34:37.639 --> 00:34:40.079 my left hand. As soon as I put them on, I could hear 496 00:34:40.119 --> 00:34:45.079 someone talking in the background, more like a conversation. My husband and baby 497 00:34:45.119 --> 00:34:49.679 were asleep. I knew the voice was not coming from inside my home. 498 00:34:49.760 --> 00:34:52.800 It sounded far away and so small. I'm not sure if that makes sense. 499 00:34:53.360 --> 00:34:57.440 You know in the movies, how usually tiny fairies are whispering into people's 500 00:34:57.440 --> 00:35:00.320 ears. I don't know what to make of it. I got to good 501 00:35:00.360 --> 00:35:05.559 feeling, even though I've never experienced this before. Have you experienced this before? 502 00:35:06.000 --> 00:35:08.960 Okay? I find that really fascinating. The time four am. I 503 00:35:09.039 --> 00:35:14.920 find that interesting because supposedly something happens between three am and five am. I've 504 00:35:14.920 --> 00:35:19.639 read so many different theories on this, like something with the electricity, because 505 00:35:19.639 --> 00:35:24.440 it's wherever you live across the world, those time periods three am to five 506 00:35:24.480 --> 00:35:30.239 am, the electricity in the city or town are quieter. I don't know. 507 00:35:30.280 --> 00:35:35.320 I've read all these science techie stuff that goes over my head that helps 508 00:35:35.360 --> 00:35:37.840 explain why we tend to get more information at that time. And it's something 509 00:35:37.840 --> 00:35:43.679 to do with the silence and solitude. The black tourmaline and selenite I find 510 00:35:43.719 --> 00:35:47.519 interesting because black tourmaline protects us and only allows the good in, and selenite 511 00:35:47.519 --> 00:35:52.719 invites our invisible helpers in, like our guides and angels. So I find 512 00:35:52.719 --> 00:35:57.559 all that interesting. And she put the bracelets on her left hand. And 513 00:35:57.639 --> 00:36:00.199 I always tell people, if you wear your crystals on your left hand, 514 00:36:00.320 --> 00:36:07.000 that's about receiving the information, receiving the energy of those stones. If you 515 00:36:07.039 --> 00:36:09.480 wear it on your right hand, it's about emitting or sharing or giving the 516 00:36:09.599 --> 00:36:14.400 energy of those stones. A lot of people have shared with us that when 517 00:36:14.480 --> 00:36:19.880 they do hear messages from spirit, it does sound like it's coming from far 518 00:36:20.000 --> 00:36:23.119 far away, like inside a tin can. And I think that's because what 519 00:36:23.800 --> 00:36:29.960 is happening is you are tuning into a different dimension, which is energetically vibrationally 520 00:36:29.960 --> 00:36:34.320 speaking very very far away. So I do feel that you were hearing the 521 00:36:34.599 --> 00:36:38.960 guidance and information from your guides, and if you weren't aware of the actual 522 00:36:39.039 --> 00:36:44.400 words they're saying. I always trust that our soul is that our soul hears 523 00:36:44.440 --> 00:36:47.719 it, and when our conscious is ready to receive it, it will filter 524 00:36:47.880 --> 00:36:52.920 up into our conscious and we'll be able to get those messages. But I 525 00:36:52.960 --> 00:36:58.000 think that's a really fascinating story of how crystals and timing and where you wear 526 00:36:58.079 --> 00:37:02.400 the crystals can all work to help lift and raise our vibrations to receive messages 527 00:37:02.400 --> 00:37:10.159 and insights like this. I do too, And you know I've had this 528 00:37:10.280 --> 00:37:15.880 happened to me. Mine has been either in that magic hour as you're describing, 529 00:37:16.320 --> 00:37:20.960 between about three. Usually for me it's about three thirty quarter to four 530 00:37:21.599 --> 00:37:24.320 that that happens. But it also happens to me sometimes at night as I'm 531 00:37:24.360 --> 00:37:30.639 going to sleep. It's almost as if somebody is just in another room whispering 532 00:37:30.519 --> 00:37:35.039 and I can't hear it. I can't understand, I can't I can't discern 533 00:37:35.119 --> 00:37:37.920 the words. I just know there's somebody there. And I have, like 534 00:37:38.039 --> 00:37:44.320 you said, I have learned to trust that that information is being absorbed and 535 00:37:45.400 --> 00:37:50.280 interpreted and used at a soul level beyond my conscious level. And I think 536 00:37:50.280 --> 00:37:54.599 that's that's been helpful to me and just reconciling the frustration that I initially felt 537 00:37:54.639 --> 00:38:00.079 when it first started happening. Yeah, and it's hard to describe, and 538 00:38:00.239 --> 00:38:02.719 I think she did a really good job of describing it. That's happened to 539 00:38:02.760 --> 00:38:08.360 me. I've also had music like that where it's almost like someone very very 540 00:38:08.400 --> 00:38:15.199 far away is playing a beautiful classical concert, but I can't put my I 541 00:38:15.199 --> 00:38:19.000 couldn't say, oh, it's from the neighbor two doors down. It's not 542 00:38:19.079 --> 00:38:22.440 localized, it's just far away. I've had that with smells, where all 543 00:38:22.440 --> 00:38:29.159 smell lilac or roses, and I will go all around my room trying to 544 00:38:29.199 --> 00:38:32.199 find the source, and there's no source for it. It's just far away 545 00:38:32.360 --> 00:38:37.280 and close and everywhere all at the same time, and it's just mystical when 546 00:38:37.280 --> 00:38:42.199 it happens. Well, that is interesting, you know that, because music 547 00:38:42.280 --> 00:38:45.039 for me doesn't do that. I don't have that far away classical music thing. 548 00:38:45.159 --> 00:38:50.599 I have very loud rock and roll playing in my head. Well, 549 00:38:51.000 --> 00:38:53.800 yes, but that's probably one of the waysier guides connects with you. But 550 00:38:53.920 --> 00:38:59.679 sometimes when I really get in the zone with meditating, I'll hear that and 551 00:38:59.719 --> 00:39:04.039 it's it's almost like Handel's music. I don't know, I can't I can't 552 00:39:04.039 --> 00:39:07.159 put my finger on it, but I just pause and I'm grateful for it 553 00:39:07.199 --> 00:39:12.239 when it happens. Okay. Our next one says, I recently had an 554 00:39:12.239 --> 00:39:15.000 experience I want to share and to ask your opinion on it. To begin, 555 00:39:15.079 --> 00:39:20.480 I have been experiencing a spiritual awakening for the past two years or so. 556 00:39:20.880 --> 00:39:23.039 During this time, I felt very called to learn reiki and did my 557 00:39:23.159 --> 00:39:27.480 Level one in January. I will be doing my Level two in just a 558 00:39:27.519 --> 00:39:30.199 few weeks. After having my first Reikie tunment, I felt like I was 559 00:39:30.280 --> 00:39:36.320 opening up more and more intuitively sensitive, though I would not at all consider 560 00:39:36.360 --> 00:39:39.800 myself a medium or a psychic, just more open than normal. One afternoon, 561 00:39:39.840 --> 00:39:44.159 I was relaxing at home before starting an evening shift at work. I 562 00:39:44.280 --> 00:39:47.280 wasn't sleeping, but was very deeply relaxed. The top of my head began 563 00:39:47.320 --> 00:39:52.800 to tingle, and I had a vision of a pinkish purple crystal ring being 564 00:39:52.840 --> 00:39:58.519 placed inside my head. It felt important and like I was being given a 565 00:39:58.559 --> 00:40:04.159 gift. Since this I have been consistently seeing repeating numbers. It began with 566 00:40:04.239 --> 00:40:07.239 two two two and two two two two, and now I'm seeing three, 567 00:40:07.360 --> 00:40:13.639 three, three and four four four daily. I'm thankful that when I see 568 00:40:13.639 --> 00:40:16.480 these numbers, I take the time to say thank you and express that I 569 00:40:16.519 --> 00:40:21.599 am open to whatever is on my path ahead. I'm just really perplexed by 570 00:40:21.599 --> 00:40:25.079 the crystal vision. Have you heard of this or experienced its Samantha, I'm 571 00:40:25.119 --> 00:40:29.679 going to bow to your expertise of how whether or not this is connected to 572 00:40:29.800 --> 00:40:31.760 reiki, and then I'll weigh in. Well, I definitely think it's connected 573 00:40:31.800 --> 00:40:37.320 to riki, but it doesn't mean you have to be attuned to reiki to 574 00:40:37.360 --> 00:40:42.920 have these experiences. I think reiki is just one path of many that we 575 00:40:43.000 --> 00:40:47.719 can start along our spiritual journey. The pinkish purple ring being placed inside her 576 00:40:47.719 --> 00:40:52.239 head, to me, that's almost like a gift of divine love, because 577 00:40:52.280 --> 00:40:55.679 pink reminds me of love and purple is connected to divinity, so it's almost 578 00:40:55.719 --> 00:41:00.719 like her guides were just giving her this gift of divine love. When we 579 00:41:00.800 --> 00:41:06.280 start to see repeating numbers, it is a sign that you are spiritually awakening 580 00:41:06.679 --> 00:41:10.719 that you are raising your vibrations to the next level of your development. I 581 00:41:10.840 --> 00:41:15.280 find it interesting that she started with the repeating twos, and then the repeating 582 00:41:15.360 --> 00:41:19.719 threes, and then the repeating fours. I'd love to know if then she's 583 00:41:19.760 --> 00:41:23.599 going to see repeating fives. Now I sound like countterracula, But do you 584 00:41:23.599 --> 00:41:28.480 know what I mean? Like it's even the numbers are raising in vibration. 585 00:41:29.199 --> 00:41:34.519 Seeing repeating twos is all about partnering up and connecting. Seeing repeating threes is 586 00:41:34.519 --> 00:41:40.159 all about being creative and open to creative inspiration. And seeing repeated fours it's 587 00:41:40.199 --> 00:41:45.840 all about finding more balance and grounding in your life. But it's also about 588 00:41:45.880 --> 00:41:51.280 it brings a message of don't stop studying, don't stop learning and growing and 589 00:41:51.320 --> 00:41:54.639 being a student, so that when you're ready you two can also be a 590 00:41:54.679 --> 00:42:00.800 teacher. So each of those repeating numbers is breeding her a very specific message. 591 00:42:00.960 --> 00:42:05.000 Usually you'll see those repeating numbers for several months, and then the message 592 00:42:05.000 --> 00:42:10.239 will slowly be digested into your consciousness. So it's not like whenever you see 593 00:42:10.239 --> 00:42:15.400 repeating numbers, it's not like you're going to get like a fortune cookie message 594 00:42:15.440 --> 00:42:19.320 typed out spelled out clearly. But what will happen is you'll start to see 595 00:42:19.360 --> 00:42:23.960 more synchronicities in your life. You'll start to see more opportunities that remind you 596 00:42:24.119 --> 00:42:29.599 of what the numerological meaning of that number is. So all of this is 597 00:42:29.639 --> 00:42:34.159 indicative of being will on your way to a spiritual awakening. And I think 598 00:42:34.159 --> 00:42:37.039 we've said this many times on the show, but I do want to stress 599 00:42:37.440 --> 00:42:42.480 we never ever go through one spiritual awakening in our lifetime. We go through 600 00:42:42.559 --> 00:42:46.840 several. So I'm sure this listener has already been on a spiritual awakening that 601 00:42:46.920 --> 00:42:52.199 led him or her to study reiki, and now they're embarking on another spiritual 602 00:42:52.239 --> 00:42:59.519 awakening. And once that vibration gets assimilated into your body and you feel comfortable 603 00:42:59.639 --> 00:43:04.599 with eisting at that higher rate, you'll go through another spiritual awakening, where 604 00:43:04.679 --> 00:43:09.199 again your vibrations will raise even higher. And it's it's really amazing in hindsight 605 00:43:09.320 --> 00:43:15.760 to watch and reflect and observe how much your life shifts and changes after each 606 00:43:15.800 --> 00:43:22.760 of these spiritual awakenings, and how much more richer your life experiences, and 607 00:43:22.800 --> 00:43:27.599 how more deeply connected you will feel to yourself, your purpose, your path, 608 00:43:28.000 --> 00:43:30.559 your helpers. But also the people around you. I know through each 609 00:43:30.559 --> 00:43:36.119 of my spiritual awakenings, there were always great losses during those times. And 610 00:43:36.199 --> 00:43:38.320 I don't mean that in a grief way. I mean that in there were 611 00:43:38.360 --> 00:43:43.159 things I had to let go of, right There were things I needed to 612 00:43:43.199 --> 00:43:46.880 release. Patterns, beliefs with thinking, negative thought patterns that I had to 613 00:43:47.159 --> 00:43:52.320 that I had to leave away and just let it go. And through that 614 00:43:52.360 --> 00:43:55.920 there was so much more I gained. And with each of my spiritual awakenings, 615 00:43:55.920 --> 00:44:01.159 someone always comes into my path who is at the time I might not 616 00:44:01.239 --> 00:44:05.159 be aware of it, but are always going to be a part of my 617 00:44:05.199 --> 00:44:07.639 soul family at my tribe. So there's so many gifts that each of these 618 00:44:07.639 --> 00:44:13.360 awakenings bring. And I'm so happy that this listener has received these gifts in 619 00:44:13.440 --> 00:44:19.559 such visible, tangible ways, because oftentimes they're not as tangible as the ones 620 00:44:19.639 --> 00:44:22.039 that this person is experiencing. But what a gift. I don't know that 621 00:44:22.079 --> 00:44:27.440 I have a whole lot to add to this other than that I'm sure if 622 00:44:27.440 --> 00:44:30.760 she's doing reiki, she's doing chakra work. But when I was reading about 623 00:44:30.800 --> 00:44:36.599 the pink and purple ring, that of course made me think about that deep 624 00:44:36.639 --> 00:44:42.480 connection between the heart chakra and the crown chakra and the brow chakra. And 625 00:44:42.960 --> 00:44:45.920 I just think that that's I think that's chakra work is so important. We've 626 00:44:45.920 --> 00:44:50.360 said this is zillion times on the show, that chakra work is so incredibly 627 00:44:50.400 --> 00:44:54.079 important, and I think that's one of the ways that we open ourselves two 628 00:44:54.480 --> 00:45:00.599 new information and two new ideas. And she's certainly doing that, but I 629 00:45:00.679 --> 00:45:04.840 just remind everybody that to do that consciously. That's chakra work. Consciously, 630 00:45:05.000 --> 00:45:07.880 it's really really important. It is. And don't forget that the heart chakra 631 00:45:08.039 --> 00:45:14.760 is the bridge chakra, so when that's not open or cleansed, ain't nothing 632 00:45:14.840 --> 00:45:17.679 coming through. Right. So this is also a beautiful message to always keep 633 00:45:17.679 --> 00:45:22.480 your heart open to love all of not just divine love, so that all 634 00:45:22.559 --> 00:45:27.719 that beautiful, high energy vibration can flow through all of us.
