Spirit Sitter Medium
Aura.

Spirit Guides: A spirit guide is the spirit of someone we most likely knew in a past life
who has incarnated to earth at least once and knows the feelings and struggles of being in a
human body. Crossed over relatives also act as spirit guides as from my readings I have had
many come in, say someone's grandmother. I can tell when I am communicating with a
person's guide when I see them directly behind the person I am reading. The purpose of a
guide may be to encourage, advise, and support us in our life's goals; find joy, be the voice in
our head that guides us down the right path. They have a better perspective on issues in
your life's chart and help keep you on track. Sometimes that little voice in your head may be
your guide. They are always with us and from time to time different guides come and go
which I call speciality guides. For example, if you are a cook, you may have a guide that was
once a cook. If you write, a guide that was an author may come in to help you. If you are a
healer, you may have a healing guide come to assist you during your healing sessions.

What is Precognition? Foreknowledge of an event.
What is a Psychic? A person that has a developed sixth sense and can read into
the energy of another to access information about that person's past, present and
future. We all posses a sixth sense naturally, however it lies underdeveloped in
most of us. Many people do have psychic experiences and generally don't
recognize them and instead call it a gut feeling, or their intuition.
How do Psychic Abilities work? This may sound simple to many, but no matter
which explanation may be given, it seems to raise more questions. This is my take
on how they work. A psychic is a person that has learned to relax and raise their
energy vibration in a focused way to concentrate on a persons energy which they
tap into to access information about that person. Each of us have a history of our
past, present and many possible futures stored in what is known as the Akashic
Records located in the Hall of Records on the otherside (Heaven, Summerland,
the Spirit World, etc.). It is kind of like looking in God's file cabinet and pulling your
records or history out. Every person has a unique energetic imprint like a
fingerprint, that identifies us and is linked to these Akashic records. You do not
even have to know the person's name as some claim, to tap into their individual
records, I know, I do it. All you have to know is who you are reading. Or, if you
are reading someone and they ask a question about an un-named friend, you can
still access that individuals information because the person you are reading knows
who it is and when a psychic reads, they send out their energy which goes to the
person's energy they are reading and connects to the other person's information
or energetic imprint that the person you are reading is now accessing just by
thinking about that other person because the information is now linked. Every
time we think, our thoughts are linked to additional thoughts, each thought has a
unique energetic vibration, or fingerprint. Like a computer, a psychic sends out an
electronic signal which seeks the exact or most likely information. That is why it is
rare that a psychic is 100% accurate; because we tend to, in many cases access
the most likely information, or information that stands out.
Lastly, I made a statement above about a person's past, present and possible
futures. Each person has a predetermined future based on their present actions.
Whenever we change our actions or behaviours, so then does our future change.
If a psychic read you and tapped into your most likely future, they are doing so
based on your current history. Once a person is told about their possible future
and find that they don't like it, they then have "free will" to change their future. For
example, John gets a reading and is told that he will get into a fatal auto accident
in six months because he was driving while intoxicated. John likes to party hardy
and on weekends gets drunk at the local bar with his buddies and often drives
home drunk, way above the legal limit to where his judgement is severely
impaired. John does not like what he is told and decides to party at home from
now on and never drive while intoxicated again. John now changed the outcome
of a possible future based on his subsequent behavior change and lives for many
years to come.
Some will say that I am wrong and if John is meant to die, if his time is up in six
months, even if he changes his ways, he will still die, perhaps of a heart attack,
being hit by a train, etc. That may not be entirely true. We come to Earth with at
least three exit points spaced throughout our life. If we had a couple of close calls
during our life that almost took our life, then most likely our higher self opted to
stay and continue longer. Then perhaps on the third close call, that may be the
one. Life is still a big mystery and no one knows all the answers with total
certainty. I find that fascinating, and hope that I cleared up some issues. For
more answers I suggest that you do some research yourself; as I am not writing a
book here, but merely trying to make some sense of questions that we all have, in
a brief space of time.
What is a Medium? A medium as my dearly departed dad said, "is a go
between."
All mediums are psychic, however, not all psychics are mediums. Having the
ability or gift of Mediumship is rare. Not many have it for some reason. Being a
medium means that our Creator has given them the ability to see, hear, feel and
experience spirits from other dimensions who operate at higher frequency ranges
than that of our earth. All humans have the natural ability to be a medium and
experience seeing spirits to different degrees, however, they must train to develop
this ability (as I will explain in my next book).
Clairvoyance: Clairvoyance is the ability to see in your mind's eye, called
the third eye; a psychic picture or vision of a spirit, an object, a symbol or
whatever the medium is connecting with during a reading. Clairvoyance
is the more rare of the Clairs in psychics and mediums.
Clairaudience: This is the use of ones psychic ear. Sounds are heard that
are not physically detectable. Clairaudience means clear hearing and in
a reading the psychic or medium can detect or hear psychically; voices,
music or other sounds that no one else present can hear.
Claircognizance: Clear knowing. This is when the psychic or medium receives
a download of information about a situation, or from spirit that is received
instantaneously. It is like a telepathic transfer of information.
Clairsentience: This means clear feeling. A medium can sense when spirits or
ghosts are present and notice their feelings and their personalities.
Clairalience/Clairgustance: This is the ability to pick up smells from the psychic
nose that are otherwise undetectable by the physical nose. Sometimes ghosts or
spirits will create a smell such as tobacco smoke, perfume, flowers, baked bread,
and other smells that pertains to the reading that might be used as a tool for
validation.
Clairhambience: This is psychic taste. In a reading a psychic or medium may
get a taste of baked bread, candy, or something that pertains to the reading that
might be used as a tool for validation.
Psychometry: All physical objects pick up and retain energy such as thoughts,
feelings and actions of events that occurred in their presence. When a psychic or
medium asks a person to give them a photo, a piece of jewelry, or some other
object, they then will touch it and can focus in on the energy of the object. They
will start to receive pictures or feelings of that energy record and be able to tell the
person it belongs to what they are getting. A brief example would be if someone
let me hold their wedding band, I could tell if that individual is happy, what type of
job they have, what their home looks like, etc.
Oracle Cards: When a card reader does a reading they pick up on the energy of
the sitter (person being read) and focus. The amount of times the cards are
shuffled and dealt are dependent on the feelings the reader gets. Often times this
is channeled through spirit guides or angels so that the exact cards will be dealt
that are meaningful for the reading. The cards are generally a tool that the reader
uses as a focal point to receive and give information to the sitter. In my case I
usually work through the angels. When I shuffle the deck, I receive a clairvoyant
picture of a number such as 7, then I shuffle the deck 7 times. Next I will get a
vision of a number, perhaps of the number 5, and deal 5 cards. With this method I
have been highly accurate in my readings whenever I use the cards. My angels
influence the card shuffle and give me numbers so the right cards are dealt that
pertain to the reading.
Pendulum: A person has a string or chain with a crystal attached at the end and
focuses on a question. The Pendulum will then swing in one direction or another
for yes or no. Another example is when it is held over a paper with questions on it.
When a question is asked, the pendulum will swing toward the answer.
Dowsing: When a person holds on to two rods which are held loosely and
extended in front of them and might be trying to locate something such as water,
minerals, or something buried. When the object is located, the rods will then point
down as if to say, "dig here!" This happens when the person using rods or
pendulum focuses with their psychic energy through the rods which then align with
the energy of the item being located. Also known as Divining.
Gazing: When a person looks into a crystal ball, water or a black mirror for
example and concentrates. After a time, they start to see visions or pictures of
places, events, or spirits.
Ouija Board: A board with letters, numbers and Yes and No on it as illustrated
here. The person or persons using this board will have a planchette placed on the
board and try to make contact with the spirit world by lightly placing their fingers
on the planchette and asking a question. The planchette will then move over
several letters to spell out a word. Caution: This is not a toy and opens the door
to the spirit world. Unless you are trained and use protection and have good
intentions, you never know what spirit might come through, good or bad.

Planchette: French: Small plank. A small board supported on casters, typically
heart-shaped and fitted with a vertical pencil, used on the Ouija Board, for
automatic writing, and in seances.
Automatic writing: When a person lays the pen to a pad of paper and channels
writing from a spirit. The hand seemingly moves on its own.
Seances: Mainly during the 19th century, a medium and a group of people sat
around a table in a dimly lit room with their hands linked together and attempted to
make contact with spirit. An example today can be seen on the cable TV show
"Most Haunted."
Spirit: The soul of a person that has died and went back to the spirit world which
would be Heaven or Summerland, or what ones beliefs dictate.
Ghost: Possibly the soul of a person who has died and is stuck here as a ghost,
and did not cross over to the spirit world for whatever reason.
Orbs: In many photographs and in video, what appears to be spherical balls of
white and sometimes other colors of light are called orbs or ghost or spirit orbs.
Often times these orbs are nothing more then dust particles or something else.
However, in thousands of photos these orbs show up and can't be explained as
anything other then spirits. I believe that they are the energy center of spirit and
they can shape it into the form of a ghost or full apparition if they so choose to
manifest. They are fluorescent in nature and can best be photographed with a
flash on the camera.
Why Ghosts exist: There are too many reasons to list here, but here it is. We
are all made up of energy which is our natural body, not this body, the body of the
flesh, but pure energy. When a person dies, their soul slips out of the human
body like a silk handkerchief pulled out of the breast pocket. Then you are now in
spirit, your natural body. Since it's your natural body, you feel alive. Some that
die realize that, and some don't. Perhaps the severely mentally ill or someone
high on drugs might die and not be aware of this. Others that die and are
cognizant of this, will see a white light, a bridge or perhaps a tunnel and a person,
pet, relative or angel waiting to guide them home. Some that are aware that they
have died may choose not to cross over and complete the transition and rather
stay close to here in the astral plan because they have free will to do so, and
perhaps they will stay for unfinished business. Other reasons they stay behind is
to be with a spouse they left behind, live in a beloved home that they don't want to
leave from, or they may have been bad during their life, and their belief tells them
that if they cross over, they will be judged. So they stay behind, stuck with one
foot in the astral plane and one foot in our world. Ghosts are all eventually
rescued and will not stay here permanently. They may stay a long time and not
realize it as there is no linear time in their dimension.
Astral Plane: A dimension that is overlaid with that of the earths. There are two
reasons why we see ghosts more easily than spirits. The energy of the ghost is
more dense than that of a transitioned spirit, and the astral plan is overlaid over
ours. The astral plane is several levels lower than that of the spirit world which
vibrates at a very high energy.
Imprint Energy: Imprint energy in a haunted house for example, is highly
charged energy left behind as a result of some event or traumatic experience. It is
also found in many places such as battlefields and hospitals where there has been
killing, death, and suffering. Eventually this energy will play out or dissipate. If
you visit a former battlefield for example, and observe a squad of ghostly soldiers
and try to make contact with them and fail, if they are seen frequently doing the
same thing over and over, you can bet that they are energetic imprint ghosts.
Active ghosts however, are aware of you and may interact, and not in the same
way or place each time. That's the difference between an (active) ghost and
imprint energy.
Aura: The natural energy field that emanates from our body and is seen as a
translucent outline around our human body. Many gifted psychics and mediums
can actually see this, usually in different colors. Everyone can learn to see auras
with some practice. There are now many good books out there on auras and how
to read and see them. For some pictures of auras, please check my Gallery page.
A special camera that sees into the infrared spectrum is used to photograph auras,
sort of like Kirlin photography.
Astral Travel: The spirit is made up of pure energy and does not need food or
water, money, rest, or anything tangible. The human body does. Therefore, when
you sleep your spirit stays busy and you dream. When the spirit leaves the body
we don't always have a recollection of this. When we do it feels wonderful. Our
spirit body is connected to our physical body with a silver cord that stays attached
until death. So when you fly in your dreams, do not worry about being safe, you
are. You can travel anywhere just by thinking about it. Sometimes we awake with
a jerk which means our spirit may have come back into our body. When it leaves
the body, you may get a floating sensation and also hear a pop or buzzing sound.
Meditation: We Meditate to quiet ourselves, focus, de-stress, relax, and perhaps
have a metaphysical or spiritual experience. It also raises our vibration.
Angels: Angels are not only God's messengers, they are also here to assist us.
The angels are unique in that they do our Creators bidding and ours. Our Creator
wishes them to assist us and they do in so many ways.
We are each born with at least two angels who stay with us from birth. One is our
nudging angel and the other is our guiding angel. They are also our guardians.
The angels are not allowed to interfere with our lives with one exception, if you are
about to get killed in an accident for example, and it is not yet your time to die,
they will intervene to save you; but that is the limit. The angels are always
standing by waiting to assist you - there's just one catch... You must ask them, as
they need your permission to assist you as they are not allowed to interfere with
your life except as I stated above. I always ask the angels to protect me while I
commute to and from work. I also ask them for assistance for many things in my
daily life. Sometimes I ask for a lot of angels to help or protect me in some
situations. You may ask for as many angels as you wish. After all, God's love for
us is unlimited, so why should he limit the amount of angels we ask for to assist
us? There are different levels of angels and the Archangels are at the highest
level. Last exception, your guardian angels will keep you safe naturally if it does
not interfere with your life chart. (For more info on angels, go to my Books page)
Archangels: Archangels are managers overseeing our guardian angels. They
are one type of the nine choirs of angels: angels, archangels, principalities,
powers, virtues, dominions, thrones, cherubim, and seraphim. Compared to
guardian angels, archangels are very large, loud, and powerful, yet they're also
extremely loving and egoless. Archangels will also assist us if we ask. The
angels say that you do not have to pray to them but merely ask for their
assistance. When you ask angels for help, keep in mind that they will not help you
win the lottery or harm someone. They will only preform out of love and
compassion, not gain, hate or negativity. When ever I do readings or need
back-up, I call upon the Archangels.
Below are named some of the Archangels and what they do:
AA Michael: He is the overseer of the archangels. He has a warrior energy and

recommended reading and web-sites for further information.
Chakra System: Like all machines, humans have a power source. There are
several hundred of them in our bodies called Chakras. We have 7 main chakras.
They are the Root (Red) located in the base of the spine,-- the Sacral (Orange)
lower abdomen,-- Solar Plexus (Yellow) Stomach,-- Heart (Green) Sternum/heart,-
Throat (Blue) Throat,-- Third Eye (Purple/Violet) Forehead, Centered Between
Eyes,--
and Crown Chakra (Indigo/Blue) Top of Head-Crown. With your chakras open
and moving you stay healthy and feel good. It also helps to raise you vibration to
make contact with the spirit world and opens your intuition to the cosmic
consciousness.











19th Century Seance.









Parlor Fortune Tellers & Charlatans:
I am not saying that all of the above are not
legitimate. What I am saying is that a psychic
should never be digging for information from
you during a reading. They should be the
ones who give you the answers. Additionally,
if they start talking about curses and ask for
more money to remove one from you, or offer
a spell to make someone love you for a price,
or to light candles for a price each for any of
the above, then run don't walk. A real
psychic will charge you a one time fee and
give you a reading without asking leading
questions. The information will not be that of
fear, hate, or evil, but based on love and
compassion. If you ever feel uncomfortable
during a reading, I would suggest that you
leave right away. Myself, I tend to use care
and check out parlor Fortune Tellers with
flashing signs first, with a person who has
already had a reading with one. Some are
great, some not, just like in any business; there
are those that are honest & those that are not.
