Information about guides and family connections




Jennifer is asking for clarification about who her guides are.  She says, "I feel as though there is one who is a Native Indian. Also, I'm wondering if any of my family members and I share a past life as I feel great distance from my mother, a resistant relationship from my brother and a strong connection to my father and aunt on my mother's side. I never knew my Dad's parents and my Mom's parents lived farther away but I'm wondering if I shared a past life with any of them. "
Dearest one, yes, most definitely, there is a Native North American entity.  But what Jennifer feels a strong connection because of a past life they shared together.  She also has an amazing guide from early America, when she was a pilgrim type, who lived a very regimented life.  In some ways she now fights this part of her being.    
As to her family she is quite new to most of them.  And she should know that in many of the promises and responsibilities she has, it is very important that she makes decisions for herself.  She is a blessed being and has quite an amazing path she has come to do.  She has five entities with her, guides that you call them.  They all share in great joy in being with her.

Help with cravings for cigarettes


Sandi asks about her husband, who is trying very hard to quit smoking. She asks, "Can you help us identify what is blocking or preventing him from freeing himself from this habit?"

Nicotine. It is an amazing drug. He likes to do this action (smoking). It fills a void that he now experiences, of not knowing what to be in that time and space. I wonder very much if he would even pay much attention to this, but it would be helpful for him to eat an apple, an orange; to eat something that is fresh and opens his taste buds and actually helps his digestion. For all parts of him are truly craving at this time. He can fill it with a pleasant, fresh thing. I know that this is a very difficult task, but it is not impossible, and it can be done.

This ancient one comes from a time when there were many traditions and rituals and so for him, it began as that. A ritual, a place in which he could think, a clarity. I would not say that meditation is most important, for it was almost this to him. So, he could take up this, but he first needs to feel that he has something to hold with his hand and to have an experience in his physical body. Eating fruit often helps this. But then to take a moment of meditation to think clearly, to instruct his being to be calm, clear. This is wonderfully healthy for him.

Your life is calling you



Redbird says she is unhappy in her current softwear development job.  It requires a long commute and she doesn't feel valued or respected there, yet she is in fear of being laid off.  Redbird writes, "I want to work in a healthy healthy environment - emotionally, physically, spiritually and politically - doing work that benefits people and our planet. I don't know how to make the career leap and I'm feeling anxious, worried and quite hopeless. Please tell me how make my career change and whether I will be successful at finding well paying work close to home that brings me a high level of job satisfaction."

Seek it my child.  Seek it.  I know you feel that if you let it be know that you do not like what you are doing many would look on you as being unbalanced.  It is not true my dear.  And it does not matter what others think. It matters what you think, what you need.  By all means, they might think who would want to give up such a position.  But this position doesn't fit your heart, gentle one.   

You need to fly (as you say, using the name Redbird).  You need to fly and be that that you are.  But also there is a part of you that wants to settle down and nurture and be in one spot and others come to you.  You need to find out your truth.  You need to walk on the soles of your feet and be that that you are.  Why do you think you must answer a call that is not yours.   Your life is calling you.  Listen and you will find your truth.

Fear of getting lost in pain



Anonymous says she is struggling with letting go of a man she has loved. She says, He has moved on and I am letting go as fast as I can but the pain persists daily. Please help me to feel less alone by sharing a little of who you are and what you would like me to focus on. I hear your wisdom between my dreams. What if I am not strong enough and get lost? Thank you.


Dear one, it is impossible for you to get lost, unless you choose to. And in that time, you would find just a little bit of peace. Dear, dear heart you are very wise. You knew that that situation would not help you grow or be stronger. It weighted upon you. You have stars at your fingertips. In many ways, you are the creator, the healer. You look to others to find happiness, thinking that it must be in the form of another being. Would you please take time to direct your understanding to you. For I know you are very beautiful and very wise. And in the stillness of your being you see and hear and understand all, but when you come to communicate it you feel it must be guided, or limited in its form to be something all others can understand. Write my child. Write the magic of your universe. You are strong. Unleash the power of you that you are so exhausted with holding so tight. Do not be anonymous for you are loved.

Feeling alone at Christmas




Do you have any message for people at this Christmas season?


There are many beings that feel quite lonely at this time of year but it is a state of mind, not a physical thing. And do remember that you need only step outside of yourself to not be alone. To realize that there are many beings in your physical world that would love to be with you and talk with you. And know that you are surrounded by amazing entities (guides). Everybody has at least one. They are beings of light that are there to help you grow. To help you feel and to help you see your choices, to sense what your growth is and to assist you in moving forward.


If you are feeling alone, then you must reach out. If you are feeling like there is no point in going on, just know that if you choose not to go on, you will have to do this all over again. I don’t mean to make light of it. But growth is a constant and you must experience each aspect of the physical. I would like to give a message to all beings that you are not alone. Seek help, ask for yourself. There will be a hand in the darkness, a light is glowing for you. You are never alone.





Christmas message from the second Guide :
Being present in the physical world takes great growth and love.  All of you are loved and are learning to love.  That is it.  Nothing more.  It takes many forms, many ways, but that is it.  What to say to the many people that ask the questions?  That if their questions are asked, their hands are reaching out, their hands shall be held and they shall hear.  If they seek, they shall find and there will be comfort.

Creating our universe or being guided by the universe




Sandra Arnold says that lately she's felt like so many aspects of her life are in the hands of others. She says, "Finances and health being the two that weigh most in my thoughts.  I am trying to understand whether I create my universe or whether I am to be guided by the universe.  Where is the balance point between these two, seemingly conflicting thoughts?  Blessings and gratitude."
Dear, dear one.  Your feeling of limitations affects your health.  You are feeling that you are bound by all sides; it is hard for you.
You must take action to free yourself.  If not permanently, but for a time to breathe, to understand.  Create for yourself an opening to spend and truly find your truth again.  It is all convoluted in feelings of did I create this, did I want this?  And part of you did, but now it is limiting you. 
It is like saying that at one time a pair of shoes was the answer for everything, but after a while they just don’t fit any more and it is time to wear new shoes.  To put on a different understanding. And this is quite alright.  It doesn’t mean you throw out those shoes.  Sometimes you just need to put them aside for a bit, until a new season comes about.
What I say is this: don’t throw it all at this time.  But take time to think.  Release yourself enough to think.  I know you feel the limitations of monetary needs.  But truly your needs are very few my dearest one and you could manage with very little.  You know this about yourself but you wonder if it is true because you have adopted the beliefs of many others.  That is why I say take some time to find out who you are.
Walk barefoot on the sand, or on a mossy green. Be in touch with your world again, taste the rain on your tongue.  See what your world is, how it supports you.  That is what I say to you: take some time to find out who you are.  Then you will know.



Dreams of sailing and advice about guilt


I have a note from Quiet Mist Man. He says, "Many years ago I watched a television series which documented a circumnavigation of the world by a tall ship. I felt strongly that this was something I wanted to do and I had a vision of my being aboard. In the vision there was a wound of some kind that someone carried and I helped to facilitate healing.

I join the ship on April 8 2010 and we set sail on May 1st. A few years ago someone was washed overboard in a storm and lost at sea. I feel the captain is carrying guilt for having chosen not to sail with the ship on that voyage. It seems he feels the life would not have been lost had he been there.
Can you guide me?

Oh my dear, all beings can choose to blame themselves for the exit of another being if they wish to. But in truth, that being chose and went quite happily. I know you often see things as an end, an abrupt end and such sadness, but it isn’t so. There is always more to be and reasons for all. Of course, it is not the Captain’s fault as you say, for if this being could have been there, he would have been there and it still would have occurred. There wasn’t a travesty that occurred, it was a positive thing to go into the waves; it was exactly what the being wanted.

Quiet one of the mist, you have lived many lifetimes upon the sea. You love it. You love nature, you love all that is wild and furious and gentle and calm. The highs and the lows of your physical world have always intrigued you. You have always wanted to live on the edge. And now you realize that the edge is truly a depth. It has more, it is not one side or the other, but is truly its own dimension and from there you are walking in this path you are walking now. And it is true, you can heal, because you know that there is more. For you can channel this amazing energy from the edge to those that need it, or ask for it.
For those that do not, and you just wish to help them, simply direct it. Blessed being, you are an amazing being, you are loved.

Feeling one has failed in life; how to be happy




Jason says, "All my life I've been a strong creative soul.  With all my efforts, every goal and dream I've had has turn to dust and never even close to being fulfilled; goals of being a professional actor, writer, of traveling the world, of having a career that is meaningful to me. Now, as I turn 39 in a few months, I look back and feel only disappointment with my life, and betrayed by life.  Nothing I do brings my goals to completion, and I feel no sense of hope.  I dare not dream because it would be another failure.  What do I need to do to believe, trust, and achieve something meaningful for me?

Dear one, know this: that if you wish only to be unhappy, you will be unhappy.  Trust that if you wish to be happy, then it shall come.  Stop wishing and start being.  You have not failed at anything other then some plan that you thought you should be.   Perhaps you should release yourself from the limitations and expectations that you have set about yourself. Perhaps these have come from an earlier time in this life, the feeling that there is some category that you should fit in and be it forever.
You are a magnificent being and you can reflect whatever you need to whenever you want to.  Trust in this. 

Other beings often think you are somewhat of a chameleon because whenever you are with someone you are comforted with them and can be what they are and yet that is not your truth. And so when a being tries on so many different things it is hard to figure out what exactly you be.
You are an amazing counsellor, you are an amazing being who helps others to communicate one to the other.Perhaps look at these things my child and stop feeling negative  about your being.  But start realizing how magnificent you truly are, by knowing those things were not right for you.
Be not so sad.  Look about you, put your head up and see the world that supports you.  It gives you all of these things.   If you want to be unhappy, you will be unhappy.
Try happiness my child.  Sometimes it is even said that if perhaps if you should pretend to be happy you will be happy.  There is truth in this.  There is something in the habituation of doing something over and over again, it creates this.  There is truth is this.  Blessed one, there is happiness for you.

Acceptance of the ability to love



Robert asks for advice on the nature of a relationship he has with one who lives close to him. He says, "I've tried in every way to understand it, but always end up coming back to it! I know this has been a gift to me but is there something that needs to be healed?

Acceptance of the ability to love is a wonderful part of you, my dearest. It is very much a wonder to love and to not have to hold, or control, or be totally communicating with words. The heart, that part of the spirit, channels through the great power of love, and connects you with this one and creates this communion of back and forth. This is true, do not deny it.

But accept that you have the ability to love many. Don’t be afraid of that. No, you do not need to act upon it. But love yourself too, my dearest one. For you have a great quality: You do not encumber things. You do not try to control them. You accept the situation of how it is and if the communication is not possible, to love and to allow each being to grow and to breathe.

Advice for one with cancer




Lynn asks about her friend who has been battling prostate cancer for over a year.  He was told there was nothing that could be done but he got a second opinion and had surgery that removed the tumour. She says, "He is still sick and still has some cancer. Will he win this battle? He is trying to be positive."

This dear one was right to continue to search and to find the being to help him.  He must understand  he is part of his healing, that he is in control of his being.   He thinks to be healed and so it shall be.   He must realize that he truly has the ability to put right his being.   Every body carries these cells at time to time.   This one was always being gentle and then then went into this panic.  Fear can create more of a discord within the body.   Gentle one, act upon your health.   Make your body very alkaline.  Eat pure, clean food and be in happiness while you consume it.  Find joy and find peace.  Find beauty to look upon.  Seek the greater good within all beings and in yourself my dearest.  Winning is being, so be, my child, and all will be well.

Letting go of a long-lasting relationship




Tia is very attached to a man with whom she's had a long-lasting friendship. She says, "We were involved romantically for three years. Sometimes I feel like I've let go, and then something happens and I realize I'm still very attached to him. My question is: is our promise finished, or do we still have a karmic bond to work out? And how do I let go of my expectations of him in relationship? This relationship has brought me much joy and suffering. Thank you.

And frustration. Yes, the promise is complete on your side, my dear, but not his. And thus, your frustration. In order to feel at peace you feel compelled to move forward. That is why you feel this back and forth, needed, not needed. Wanting to free yourself. Back and forth, up and down. Yes, dearest, release yourself, and know that your growth is very important and you do not want to find yourself in a state of ill health--as you do feel overwhelmed by this one at times.

Waiting for Prince Charming




Aurora asks if her  Prince Charming is coming soon.  She say, "I've been waiting too long and I'm ready for his arrival. Thanks."

Loneliness is something that so many beings fear.  Your society labels this as a negative, instead of understanding that in times of being one with oneself, there can be great growth.
Dear one, understand that you will be very busy soon in the excitement of love.  But understand and be excited about you first.  The anticipation, the opening, be not afraid of all of these parts of being in this physical world.
Do not hurry and rush through this time, but understand that it has a purpose. To take time to do your hair, to take time to look upon your being in all of its wonder.  Time is not a burden, it is the creator of growth.  Love yourself my child. You may think in time Prince Charming has a few pimples.  But take time now to love yourself and ensure that what you want is whole. All parts are important.

Staying with someone or stepping forward





Someone who gave no name asks if she is taking steps backwards by seeing a man she thought she'd given up. She says, "This being is still very much in my thoughts and while I know that I must move on, he keeps coming back into my life and I know that it is because I initiate this to happen. Should I be leaving this alone? Also, am I preventing any chances of other opportunities for relationships to happen in my life if I am involved with this one? Does he want me to be in his life?"


This dear heart answers all of her own questions. And this one does know the truth. Yes, she is in a place of no growth with this being. And many times there is miscommunication, many times. This should tell you that you have moved forward and this one has not. You can still love this being but it would be a step backward to be with that one. And that would cause such friction within you. It is alright to love someone and still move forward and be open to a love, which is yet to be.

wondering if she is with the right partner




Lindsay asks if she is with the right partner.  Do you have any words for her?
There is a great deal of chaos around you my dear.   A lot of thinking.  This is why you do not know.  If you can create some stillness, some quiet, and be at peace and be not so hurried, you will know.  
I must not take from this one’s growth. It isn’t so much that this one needs to think more, but to have some stillness in order to be.  There is too much noise and too many voices in her head for her to know her truth.  
Be still my dear.

Growth for yourself and helping others



Robert says he feels that his past life has much to do with his life now. He says, "I was hoping you might have some advice on what I have come here to do this time around. Is there any talent I could be using to help others or have I come to focus on my own growth and healing?

These things are one and the same, dearest one. Your own growth is what every being must attend to and complete the promises they have come will always will surface and often in experiencing your own growth you will be teaching others this way.

I know what he speaks of. In your world right now it is thought that you are only worthy if you are giving and loving and helping others grow and heal. That this paying attention to your own growth is somewhat selfish. Oh, how wrong that is! To honour the opportunity to be in the physical world is to honour your own being, and thus others. An evolved being will understand this. A new soul, often in a state of exhuberance might see self-aware and only self-aware. But this teaches as well. Perhaps not that soul, but others. Robert must heal his own being. And in that he will then have the ability to see others and by help by teaching. Yes.

Attending to what is at hand




Serendipity says, "I really have tried to get in touch wih my soul, my life through the Secret, and just trying very hard to be a believer in things in general. I want to be able to believe that financial freedom is reachable. I have tried and tried to believe and live this as if it were already there; although I find that something has hindered this lately and I am questioning this. For the past few weeks it seems that my financial picture is being affected in every way possible and it is draining any possible idea of getting ahead. I was advised by another phychic in July that I would receive approx. 45,000.00 on Nov. 10th this year. I really would like to know that this will happen. Please help with my fear of this financial stress. I would really like to hear some positive information." 




Before you right now lie more riches then you can understand, but you are not seeing it.  You are looking up and out of your realm at this time, my dear.  And so that is why you are feeling out of touch.  Be still.  See that that is at your fingertips.  See that that you are, and see your amazing ability within it all. Oh dear one, you seek for that outside, when it is at your very feet.  This is that that needs to be attended to, then the rest will fall in place.
A lot of beings feel that they are needing to take the step out, instead of a step into their lives.
They do not understand that they created that that they have, and must be present in it.  To witness, to look around.  If  there is something not in harmony, attend to it.  And then all things will flow. 
I’ve been hearing this more and more about looking out when you should be looking to or attending to what is at hand. Can you say more about this?
That what is meant: at your hand.  The kingdom of life, of what you might call God. That is at hand.  It means you have created this out of this God ability.  You created all that is at hand for your particular purpose.  Attend to it, see it, witness it. Then you will understand where you will be in all of it.  And also then the things that you need to balance, to perhaps correct or put in place.
Do you mean everything we touch, everything we relate to in our day?
Yes, your world.

Feeling uncomfortable with a spirit guide's words



Kelli was a member of the audience at our November event a UVic. She says that after asking about her spirit guides of the spirit that Jane had channeled she felt attacked, and she wonders what was the purpose of the harsh words. She says, "I was asked to stand up straighter. Put your shoulders back, speak up. It felt so aggressive. I can find some value in deciphering my feelings but could you clarify."

Dearest Kelli, the being that spoke to you was one of great passion and great compassion, and wanted you to see how glorious you are. Wants you to let the world see this beautiful being that you are. That often you portray to others and allow them to take advantage of you. This being wanted you to hold and honour the being that you are and allow others to see wholly and fully that they could not take advantage of you.

Little one, many have presented power over you. In many ways not understanding that you have very great depth; that your energy is very, very worthy of being seen and by being carried, firstly by yourself. There was no negativity intended my dearest. There was great love that spoke to you. For this one sees the whole of you as do I. We wish for you to honour the being that you are and to present it as the finest. You, in many ways, dear, feel that you are not beautiful and perfect. But you are! So be that that you are: whole and wondrous. Your world definitely needs you. Allow them to see you.

Kelli, I am so sorry that you felt attacked by the guide's words at our evening on October 23.  I hope this response will be of some help in clarifying things for you. Joanna

Insight in coping with emotions and relationships




Larry writes, "I recently have come to understand more of the gift that I have and doors are opening for me. The growth and knowledge that I can share is a true gift, I love this and feel good doing my work. The only thing that bothers me is that I need improvement with my emotions.  Is there any insight for me to cope with relationships. I want to be the person I know I can be without the distractions of love and the hurt that comes with it, but I also want a meaningful relationship in my life. It just seems that I can never understand the way people can be and they can never understand me. Any insight is greatly appreciated."
 

Dearest Larry, if you hold back whom you are, you portray someone you’re not.  You fear that you are not perfect.  That there is some part of you that would not be acceptable to this beautiful being that wants to be in your life.  So you try so hard to not be who you are.  And you are an amazing being.  I want you to stop looking for someone else but be who you are and share you with others.  And allow them to see and be drawn to you.  You have the ability to be like a chameleon when you are with others.  You bring out the best in them but they never get to see the best of you.  So how do you undo this?  You will always want to make them comfortable, as that is what you do.  But try to make yourself comfortable too by giving yourself time. Leave some space between the words, look into their eyes and be comforted.  You become very anxious and you think they are judging you when in truth they are thinking about how they look to you.  Try to enjoy being.  Try to enjoy the touch of a hand, a smile, a look to be part of this amazing process. Do not feel separate but one with them and you will draw this one to you.

Life's purpose and developing healing abilities




Stacy Davis writes, "I have been lost and in a desert period for sometime.  However, I recently emerged from it and it is exciting to feel alive.  My question is what is my life's purpose? I know that i am a true diehard humanitarian, but it is hard for me to chose an employment path. I just want to do the best at what i feel very passionate about.  However, I have too many interests and this makes it hard to narrow down. Please help!"  

You love people my child.  You are fascinated by their thoughts and their actions and their reactions.  You are fascinated by the largeness of their beings and the smallness of their beings.  Whatever you choose, you will have to be amongst many.  You will have to be giving to them in order to feel good about yourself.
You are a natural healer.  In other words, from time you were very small you would find things to heal and to fix.   And so it should be. You will move in and out of different ways of healing.  For some ways you will find yourself totally drained by too much of it.   You are much better to deal with one-on-one than large numbers.  Although often you think it is easier with large numbers because you can get lost in it.  But that is not good for you any more.  Large groups--the politics, the in-fighting, the talking behind one another’s backs--that is totally wrong for you.  You like to be one-on-one.  I cannot tell you what you should be because you need to tell you what you shall be.  That is part of your growth.
That is your growth.  That is your truth.  Life purpose, my dear, you have many.  You know this.  You are wise.  Think about that energies that you hold, the ones that are hot and that move through you.   Allow it to be.  It will teach you.

Financial stress in the world (and taking care of horses)




Nancy asks about her horses, that have booth been very ill for some time.  She says, "I have realized through this how much I love them and how much I need and want them to be here.  I have put in as much time as I have been able to give, I have nursed them through bandaging, massage, and caring.  I have had wonderful vet care and I am feeling guilty about whether or not I have created these illnesses in them due to financial difficulties. About a year ago I spoke with the universe and asked if it was time form them to go as it is a very big financial stress at times.  With these vet bills I am once again scared about debt and money.  I do not want to be and so I would really like to believe that they will both get better and that money is not going to be an issue in my life anymore.  So I actually have two questions.
I love my animals and I want to believe that what we want we can have, and that my horse friends will be happy and healthy and so will my bank account.  Money problems seem to affect even the ability to love fully at times and that doesnt seem right.  If this comment is not answerable I do understand as it is sounding a bit confusing when I reread it. I just don't know how to explain my guilt and delimma but I do know that I love Cheers and Sunny and I will do what I can to make them comfortable.  I do know that so I have learned something from this experience.  Any advice would help me.  


Dearest one, your guilt is not necessary, although it is a part of the physical world.  But understand that it is not guilt you experience, but intuitive ability.  You knew that these ones were having difficulties before.  It wasn’t that you had been somewhat overwhelmed by your life’s path.  It wouldn’t be that you were depressed.  But there are times when you feel exhausted with many of the burdens that you feel you must follow through with.  
Your intuitive being grows more vast with every moment. The fact that you communicate with them is a  positive, not a negative.  So speak to them that you love them, that you are there for them.  And that you thank them for letting you know, not the other way around. You can affect your world by being negative or positive, it is true.  But in truth, this that you feel you have done, they let you know as a cry with in them.
These creatures feel their world. They know when there is disharmony around them and then they manifest to bring attention to it.  Very similar to how the human being does as well. You just felt misplaced amongst it all. You were not the creator, but the receiver of the energy, the understanding.  Be patient my child.  You do very well.
Nancy says money problems seem to even affect the ability to love fully at times.  Is that a truth?
Of course.  Many beings feel that if they just had pocket full of coins, there would be happiness and light.  It has nothing to do with it, in reality.  Your world right now is manifesting the burden upon the exchange of one to another.  It is not about money, but it is about the exchange, one to another, that there is an imbalance.  This is a large, large, chaotic energy that is present in this material, physical world.
When you say there is an imbalance, do you mean an imbalance so that some people have so much and other people have so little?
Yes, and too much emphasis is put upon it, thus putting it out of balance.  That it is the main focus instead of the true exchange, which needs to be heart to heart and being to being.
Yes, we put so much emphasis on material things.
It is quite a natural state to put that pain outside of you instead of realizing that it lies within the beings who need to be in touch.  That it is not enough.  It is a knowing that comes from not enough love.  Does this erase the need of money?  No.  But truly, if she releases herself from that, and it is only by choice, and concentrates on feeling that pain within, as being an emptiness, and not communicating, not seeing her deepest heart’s need, and her need to help others, she would find that the money would flow.  And it no longer would have to have a hold.  For there would no longer have an imbalance of that that needs the give and take, the ebb and flow that is and must be between beings that must be in your world.  
You are connected, you are one.  You give so you should receive, that is what I speak to balance.  It can be words, energy, love.
Any final words for Nancy?
To enjoy, to laugh.  You love to laugh.

Information for one who wants to channel

This question is from one who gave no name.  "I understand there are many ways to channel.  I understand that I already do in some ways.  I feel I may be able to channel in the same way Jane does.  When in stillness, if I let go can I do this?"

Yes, of course you can my dear.  All beings can move the energies through them.  You need to find a form that is comforting to you--and it can be.  Remember that all energy that moves through you is of the highest.  You will be filled and never harm.

Asking for words from a daughter who was killed




Emily says, "My daughter was killed when hit by a truck when she was 12 years old. I am wondering if there is any message from her to me, and to her sister, who has grieved terribly as well."


Yes, these beings are in great pain and they fear that with the moving on of time they will no longer be in touch. They are in touch.  Tell them there there is a great bond that will always be.  Perhaps they may feel that this was not fair, or not in any way necessary.  It was.  Not so much that you would understand as fair, but it was a promise.  
Try to understand this. That a being can come into a life with the purpose of leaving--to create growth, to complete a balance.  That which must seem so very harsh is the highest gift of love to one another.  That the being so trusts that you will grow and serve to the highest, this promise.  They will do as well.  They will take this growing, this loss, this pain and put the energy of love into it.  And it will move them into the great growth that they were willing to do.  
How will it manifest?  In many ways. The sister, the daughter shall we say, is very creative, and will help to find a voice for others. The mother’s compassion, will want to protect all children and will work....well, perhaps I should not say all of these things.   But I want them to know that there is at hand great growth.  This this was not her loss, but her life.  That the being who left, although it seems too soon, was ready.
Any last words? 
In time they will hear directly.  It would not be right for me to give them now.   Tell them, tell them that she will move the energy.  This will be her sign to them.
Thank you.

The effect of being unwanted on an unborn child



Someone who left no name asked if  a woman is pregnant  and does not want the child does it cause any negative effects to the baby.  She says, "Will the baby carry these or her emotions when it is born? Will the baby feel rejected for its lifetime? And if the baby is unwanted by the father (in utero) does this affect the baby?  Thank you for your wisdom."
Emotions and feelings are energies.  They have a distinct wave pattern and yes, it affects all.  You must also understand the evolution of the being, the child being carried.  What you call child could very well be a very ancient being and this would have a very different effect than it might on one that is very new. So for each it is different.
But in truth it would always have an effect on the being.  As to how much it would affect a child's path or the whole outcome of the life, there are many variables as there are fingerprints in your world, as there are energies. For some it may be very positive and for others it may be negative.   Both will have a purpose and the outcome will be growth.
Remember that a being chooses to come through.  They know what is present.  A new soul, perhaps, not as much. But the every evolved, very much. These ones often come to offer growth to others, to heal others.  To set something in motions to help them move forward, to complete a promise. Do not see this unborn child as a victim, but as a beautiful being you must love and support in whatever way you can.  For all children should be loved, all souls should be loved.  Forgive me for seeing them as wise amazing beings even when they are small.

Shifts in relationships and moving forward






Zarah asks about feeling a big shift in two relationships.  She says, "I feel as if I am watching them end and grieving their loss.  Perhaps they aren't ending but just changing. I understand change is important and part of life but it is bringing sadness. The first is with a man I love truly and completely. I feel we may not have completed our promise but feel I am moving forward. Maybe there is still a chance we will complete whatever it is we need to do, I am not sure. The other is with a woman I love as well, but in a much different way. Can you please help me understand these transitions? And I'm curious what is the effect on a being when a promise is not completed? Thank you.  

Dearest one, recognizing is the beginning of the growth.  Know that you are in a time of movement, of forward movement.  That which was, is changing, moving.  You have released from what you thought previously of yourself, and you you have unlimited your being.
Know that you are allowing yourself to move forward, and understand that no one being stays in one place for any length of time in the physical world. I do not mean by choosing one partner or not.  But the very being’s truth grows and moves.  Your vibrational state heightens with every act of learning.  What you might think of an act of learning being a negative thing can often be the greatest movement of growth and that be positive.
You are in a time of not making clear permanent decisions.  It is a time of being fluid.  Allow the love to grow in you, to heal you.  For this is the most important thing now.
You want to know who you are, or the outcome of it.  And that is the process you are in now my dear.
Trust in your ability to find your own truth.  Listen to that amazing being that you have become.  Love yourself and all will be well.

Taking time before moving on too quickly





Bonnie S asks for guidance about her career.  She wonders if her dreams are going to bring prosperity in her life, or whether she should follow a new path.

Dearest Bonnie, your path has had many amazing things on it. There have been a few times when you have quickly moved past things and not truly understood completely the complexities and the depth of them.  Because of this, there is now a time in your path where there seems to be a stall in the action. 

Oh she she created this; do not think it was done to her.  She may not understand that completely, but there can be times, before moving on too quickly, those around you might have to stall you a bit; trip you up. Not hurt you, but make you just slow down instead of moving too quickly into something that cannot be undone. 

Dear Bonnie, it is time now to take stock of what and how and who you are, to look deep into your own being, not outside at other things.  See how you are liking it.  Do this with love and kindness.  Gentle soul, do not hurry.

Note:  When the guide speaks above of those around you having to stall you a bit, the reference is to the guides and energies that surround you in spirit.  Our spirit guides do have the ability to shift things sometimes so that we don't rush into something that might be a big mistake.  Although ultimately, of course. we are the ones who make the decisions.

Wanting to be understood by a sister-in-law





Mary asks about a relationship with her ex-husband and her father-in-law from 30 years ago.  She feels it is behind her now but wants to know how to deal with her sister-in-law.

You cannot make someone else’s truth for them yours.  

In other words, Mary wants to be heard and seen and understood by this sister-in-law but that is not possible at this time.  So it is best if she simply be her own truth, if she has accepted the forgiveness of others and moved forward. 

Do not plague yourself with this my dear.  There is a reason you have moved forward.  Accept it…and love yourself.

Thank you.

Thinking about moving to an intentional community




Anna’s considering moving into an intentional community with a group of friends but she’s concerned about the arrangement, partly because some of the people have limited finances.

Dearest Anna, you have tried so long and so hard to be open and evolved trusting and moving forward.  And when you’re feeling fearful, you’re doubting what is being said to you.  My dear, listen to it. You have moved forward in many ways.  You cannot deny the growth that you have already taken.  Listen to it my child.  Your fear has purpose.

Too many things my dear.  You fear even speaking your truth to these ones.  Think about that.  What it would be like if you were in close circumstances with them.  You don’t want to be alone; you don’t need to be alone.  Take small steps at this time.

Thank you, I'll pass these words on to Anna.

Concern about an aging cat

Ruth Anne asks about her cat Misha who has developed asthma.  Ruth Anne can’t bear the thought of losing this cat.  The cat is 11 years old.  She asks if there is anything else they can do.  

Don’t believe it is asthma.  Dearest Ruth Anne, your little one has lived a long time and has brought you great joy.  Be in that joy and love.  Do not be over-anxious.  It is hard sometimes to accept that some creatures do not live as long as you might, but that their process is just as important.  Love this little one; you are the best healer for this little one.  And trust that all is well.

Choosing what to do next in life




Gail says she has many questions for her spirit guide. Should she retire? Which direction should she take?  Is she in the right place?

She is exactly where she needs to be—asking questions.  This often is thought of as a way to escape answering anything.  Truth is, she just keeps taking on more and more jobs, and helping people in different ways, and different things.  Yes money is important and she doesn’t know if she has enough.

What to do dearest Gail?  Enjoy. You have worked and helped; you have many good friends; you have family.  You don’t want to invest all your time in your family but they need you a great deal still.  Enjoy.  You very much deserve it.

You will never stop working.  There will always be something you want to do.  See it as that, as a joy and not as work.  And always ask questions.

To be in touch is to have eyes open--feeling, hearing.  Using all the physical tools that this body has afforded you.  Understand that each being has come forward to create their life, their piece of art, their creation.  The body, thus the creation of whatever it is they come to do.  She has done amazing things but still believes there is more yet.  It is true.

Trust in that my dear Gail.

Worried that a cat may be in pain

Andrea asks about her cat that has had a bad limp for months and its wrist is fused.  She is worried that the cat is in pain and wants her to have a happy, healthy life.






No, it is you who are in pain, dear Andrea.  You are worrying way more than you should and you are making your dear little creature nervous.  You need to relax and enjoy this wonderful being that has come to teach you about unconditional love.  Just enjoy this warmth, this dear one.  It’s true they sometimes have difficulties, but these amazing creatures have learned to heal themselves much better than the human can.  Trust that this little cat is fine and not in pain.  It pains the little one when you are in pain.

Thank you.
