When
faced with the task of mourning a treasured loved
one, a profound measure of strength and will takes over. There are
so many variables and plethora of situations involved when it comes
to the death of an individual. What is key in this huge sea of despair
and confusion is that physical death is not the end. That your loved
one's soul still permeates this earth and is around you in spirit.
Many times I hear the phrase spoken; "dead is dead". It's
interesting to note that in my line of work, I've found often-time
that those individuals who were skeptical and possessed that analogy
of death, are the ones who as spirits, will try the hardest to communicate
to their loved ones still in the physical world. Why?...because they
now realize they are not dead! That life is eternal and goes on after
we leave our physical bodies.
The law
of energy states; "Energy can be neither created nor destroyed,
only changed in form." This means that we as energy, are
now, always have been, and always will be! We never really die. We
receive a great number of signs, symbols, and validations from those
who have crossed over into spirit. They want to communicate with us
as much as we do with them. You only need open your mind to experience
their existence again. Although you may no longer have the physical
touch we as humans so desperately need to feel, you do have the ability
to, in awareness, recognize when they are around you. The reassurance
that they are still in our lives is paramount to the healing process
of grief and bereavement. Once you can achieve a state of acceptance
that they are no longer present in a physical sense, yet achieve the
understanding that they are here in the spiritual sense and are safe
and ok, you can begin to live again. You can start the process of
incorporating them into your life from the spiritual realm and include
them at family gatherings, events, birthdays and such. Bring their
picture along and post it at your next family get-together. Light
a candle in their honor on their birthday or anniversary. Acknowledging
their presence creates the validation for them, that you recognize
their existence, and that they are there with you. They will respond
by letting you know in subtle ways they are there.
From my
years of research and working as a Spiritual Medium I have concluded
the following answers to these most commonly asked questions by individuals
who are in grief:
Are
my loved ones ok? Yes! This is usually the first thing
someone wants to know about their deceased loved one. They are in
a better place and are in perfect, divine form. They will not possess
any of the disabilities, and handicaps they may have had in physical
life.
Are
they happy and content? Most souls are blissful and
jovial after they have crossed into spirit. They lose the physical
limitations they had on earth, and are reunited with a divine spiritual
awareness they had before being born. Not having those physical limitations
allows them to reach us. Their spiritual intelligence allows them
to assist and guide us. There are however other souls who may have
been distressed while here on earth. Frustrated with their own existence,
and lives. These souls, because of a plethora of reasons, were unable
to work through certain issues, difficult lessons, or challenges that
were bestowed on them. Whether their reason for crossing over was
accidental death, suicide, or natural causes, these souls will continue
to try to work through these issues and lessons with divine guidance
and assistance, in order to learn the lessons they were unable to,
while here on earth. Sometimes they may lend help to individuals here
suffering the same afflictions as a way of learning and atonement.
Good will always prevail, no matter what the essence or where is starts.
God and his universe will perpetually produce 'virtuous good' eternally.
Do
they see me and when are they around me? Our loved
ones are around constantly. Especially when we have special moments
in our lives; birthdays, celebrations, anniversaries, births. They
are with us when we think of them. They are called to our presence
when we need them. They witness all our triumphs and challenges. They
are there sharing and enjoying the love and comradery of our families
and friends just as they did when they were with us in the physical
world.
Do
they know how I feel about them? They know exactly
how you feel about them. Thinking of them and transmitting thought
to them, or about them, makes it so. Conversation with spirit is on
a telepathic basis. It's like in our dreams, where we are aware of
what is being said without people in our dreams actually "mouthing"
it. In our dreams this seems quite natural and so it is in the spiritual
realm as well. They exist in what is called the astral plane. On the
astral plane, our astral bodies can move with the speed of thought.
Think you are in a particular location and so you are.even if it's
half way around the world. This may seem incredible until you consider
the speed of such things as radio waves. These waves travel around
the world at the speed of light - 186,000 miles a second; the equivalent
of traveling four hundred fifty times around the world in one minute!
How
do I recognize them? There are many signs and symbols
that your loved ones are near. It could be the phone ringing, and
when you answer it, there appears to be no one on the other end. The
lights flickering or turning on or off by themselves. A radio that
turns on or off mysteriously on it's own. A butterfly that hangs around
a window or door. Your pet staring definitively at something, yet
nothing appears to be there. Objects that comes up missing, then found
in a peculiar place. The feeling of a soft 'touch' somewhere on your
body or a gentle tap on your shoulder, yet no one is there. A warm
sensation somewhere on your body. Hairs standing up on the back of
your neck or arms. A rainbow in the middle of seemingly very dry day.
You turn the radio or TV on a specific song or show is on that has
significance related to your loved one. A yellowish or golden glow
around a picture or object of the deceased. Moving objects. Road signs,
street signs, book titles, billboards etc., that have hidden meanings
at opportune times in your life. Witnessing an apparition or vision
of them. There vast and various ways that our relatives and friends
will use to communicate to us that they are here with us and that
they love us.
Do
they speak to me? There are ways to develop skills
that God gave each one of us that will enable you to communicate with
your loved ones. It involves learning to tap into the subconscious
mind in a consciously controlled manner. The subconscious mind is
the source of our subtle perceptions. It registers everything we encounter,
both physical and spiritual. Accessing the subconscious is the key
to more direct spirit communication. Meditation is one of the most
effective means of awakening our perceptive abilities.
Through
our meditation we learn to shift our consciousness in a controlled
manner. Creative focus is the secret to opening the doors to true
spiritual awareness, energies, and beings. Receiving messages from
Spirit can be a real healing process. Connecting to your loved ones
using a Medium can also be a very moving, emotional, and happy experience.
Though those suffering from the loss of a loved one are always advised
to seek professional counseling first to assist in their grief. But
you can make that connection with your loved ones on your own. This
is a learned skill as any other. Everyone has this ability if they
will only take the time and devotion to ascertain it.
Were
they greeted by anyone when they crossed over?
Our loved ones are always greeted by someone when they cross over
in the spiritual realm. Most times they are greeted by a spouse or
other family member or close friend who has gone on before them. You
can be
assured
that they ARE NOT ALONE. Aside from their family and friends who are
already there, God is with them. He is a forgiving and ever-loving
God, and no one will be left behind. God accepts and receives all!
Will
I ever see them again?
As the answer to the previous question stated...they are there to
greet and assist us in crossing over, just as others were there to
greet them.
How
do I let them know how I feel? You need only speak
to them, in thought and prayer. They will hear you. And most times,
will go as far as to give you signs that they heard your thoughts
and prayers.
How
do I keep them in my life? Place pictures and acknowledgements
of them around your home, work place etc., recognize their birthdays,
anniversary's and death dates in prayer and/or ceremony. Talk to them
frequently and acknowledge their presence in your life. They will
do the same, and give you signs that they are near you and watching
over you.
Do
they care about family feuds or disputes? What may
have been important to them in the physical world no longer holds
the same luster or importance in the spiritual world. Especially material
possessions. They have no use for them. These possessions no longer
matter to them. They only care about the joy and happiness these possessions
may bring to you or those who still exist in the physical lane. Fights
and disagreements are unnecessary in their eyes. Anything that comes
in the way of love will be deemed unimportant and trivial. There is
no room for envy, lust, or greed in the universal laws of spiritual
existence. Love is eternal. Love is all that matters. God is love.
God created us in his likeness. We too are love. What our loved ones
see when they cross over is that LOVE is all that really matters.
