The headline above would’ve sent me into a raging tizzy 10 years ago. Why? Because I viewed the paranormal as complete darkness, evil. A notion I believe many still hold today due to how the media portrays the unknown and how some churches preach that the supernatural is evil. The paranormal is defined as an [...]
2015 and 2016 posed serious physical challenges to my well-being. I battled a chronic health issue that went undetected for seven months, causing headaches, severe weakness and cold-like symptoms. I was tested for cancer, immune system deficiencies and a variety of other ailments. All results were normal. So in March 2016 when my pulmonologist [...]
The hatred must stop. Now. The desecration of Jewish cemeteries and the threats against their schools are abhorrent and have no place in our society. America’s strength has always been in its citizens’ diversity of backgrounds, faiths and political ideologies. I don’t need to think the same as someone else to respect them as [...]
Energetically and spiritually we are connected to one another. So why would bestowing our time, efforts or money on others be counterproductive? It’s because sometimes we act without the right intention, giving expecting to receive. In those times, we’re left feeling empty and obstruct our spiritual growth. I’d never really thought about my motivation [...]
Fear drives hatred. We are frightened by those whom we perceive to threaten our well-being, our lifestyle, our beliefs, our freedoms, our morality. Without fear, hatred dies. Some institutional leaders intentionally kindle dismay among people to achieve their desired results. The 24-hour news cycle (cable TV channels, some talk radio and websites) try to [...]
Death is not a cessation, but a return to the state we were in before we had a body. The textures of our existence change without the fetters of a physical shell, but we survive that transition. Don’t fear death American culture has made death scary, an abrupt end to existence. My experience with [...]
I pray all day. I pray for: the traffic light to stay green a good night’s sleep the grocery store lines to be short and the people around me to be civil. Could I be any more pious? A few weeks ago, I realized I’d been cloaking my arrogance as prayer. I’d been trying [...]
Once we’re able to recognize the energies around us, we have a responsibility to assist those in need. Spirits may be in our realm for many reasons, including visiting loved ones or traveling to sites that hold fond memories. Some may be here seeking closure or help to cross over. One of my favorite historical [...]
See last week’s post on “Handling the energies around you.” Prevent intentional/unintentional energy vampires from impacting you People may or may not know they’re draining you. Some are going through difficult times and all they see is that they feel better when they’re around you. When you’re aware someone is siphoning your energy, imagine a [...]
A few weeks ago, I wrote about protection from unseen entities, especially when investigating the paranormal. What I need more help with, though, is preserving my own energy from the people—both those I know and strangers—whom I encounter in my daily life. If you are sensitive, chances are that you don’t like large groups. The [...]
