A Healing Message For You All

I had a strong feeling this morning that those who are drawn to my blog should be given guidance on how to heal. I do feel it is my life purpose to initiate healing in others and facilitate this through Reiki, but using guidance from Angels.

I do try to trust my instincts and to follow my own Inner Wisdom so here today especially for you is guidance direct from the Angels I spoke with this morning.

I decided to do a three card spread for you from the Angels.

This first card represents your recent past:

Aspiration – I sense you aspire to be more and you feel lack in an area (not all of your life). The Angels want you to know you can be anything you aspire to be, as long as you are being true to yourself.

*************************************************************************

This next card represents the present through to the early future:

Discernment – I believe you need to refine your own sense of self and learn to be more true to you. Currently the Angels feel you are trying somehow to please others, thus losing sight of who you truly are.

**************************************************************************

This third card represents the future through to not too far ahead. Please note if you are drawn to reading this post at a date in the future then the cards will still be relevant to you at that time (because you were drawn to them - I call this Divine Timing):

Archangel Raphael – I was delighted to draw this card because I had asked for help to heal you all. Archangel Raphael is a very special Angel as he ‘heads up’ the healing Angels – we are so blessed have his help. Please close your eyes and envisage green light around you and ask him to help you with your current healing need and he will do, I promise. If you are going on holiday (which you may well be at this time of year!) then Archangel Raphael will help you have a good time.

I’d like to thank the Angels for their guidance today. I hope you found some help and comfort from this reading and if you liked it ask that you subscribe to the blog by typing your email in the box at the top of it and selecting submit. You will then get emails to tell you about new posts including future card readings, which I will do if people want them.

*********************************************************

Not one to do a reading and then leave you with questions or no support, I also channeled Guides, Ascended Masters and positive energies to choose a Wisdom card for you. This card comes from them and I thank them for their guidance.

Authenticity – This card re-iterates the need to shut down the nagging doubts you have and learn to put yourself first. You can still be kind / considerate to others but you must start to listen to your inner voice in order to re-store the balance to your life. A big change is needed. The Guides are telling you "do not be afraid but instead have faith that it is right for you". This is most important. I sense for a lot this will be a career change or a change to their current job role/wok ethos.

My Sacred Area for Readings and Reiki:

In this photograph you can see the card spreads and also my crystal Angel who represents Grace. Grace is a very special Angel to me as I have known her since I was little. She is the female energy of Archangel Zadkiel (who ‘heads up’ the Angels of Joy) and we were re-united by my amazing Reiki Master/Teacher, Jane Swales (who I will blog about at some point – yes, she’s that good!). Since then I have made a shrine to Grace in my room and she is always with me.

I also felt strongly I should use the two crystals photographed for support and this is what their properties are when used in healing:

The green one on the left as you look at the photograph is Malachite. It is said to be a powerful emotional cleanser helping to remove past traumas, and negative emotions, to bring harmony into your life.

The black spotty one on the right as you look at the photograph is Snowflake Obsidian. It is a stone of purity. It balances mind body and spirit. Snowflake Obsidian will calm and soothe and allow you to view unhealthy patterns in your own behaviour, thus opening the door to change.

May these readings guide and support you at this time to heal from within. 

I look forward to sharing with you again soon.

There's No Place Like Home

Over my lifetime I have lived in many different places. It is true that the home is where the heart is, but only if the home has the right people living there. Our family is our first experience of unconditional love and giving, for most it is a source of comfort and reassuring acceptance. Though it has to be said that for others it can be a scary place and one of fear, doubt and abuse. We are not all blessed to have our heart in our home. We are not even all blessed with a home.

We all know that feeling we have, that connection with a special place, but it does not have to be our house, apartment, bungalow…whatever... Lots of people return on holiday to the same place over and again and this is where their heart is, even if only a tiny bit of it.

My earliest memory of home was in Castleview Road, West Derby in Liverpool. This was also my favourite home and you could say there is still a bit of my heart there. I was lucky enough to have my own room and the big room at the back, at that. It was in that room that my first ever spirit encounters occurred.

Every night I would lie in bed peeking out from the safety of my quilt at what looked to be a soldier, maybe of Roman origin. He had a leather pleated skirt, a sword and a shield. He never spoke to me, he just stood still and watched me. He was fierce and serious yet he brought me such peace and comfort that I would just stare back at him. He had a kind of sheen to him and he wasn't fully materialised like you and I. I never understood why he was there or why no-one ever mentioned him, but as he did me no harm, I also never thought to talk about him with others. It kind of felt like a very special secret.

At the age of about four or five, I remember sitting in a part of the room near to where this soldier would stand and sensing other people there. I knew that they weren't here or in our world, but from somewhere else. As I felt elevated by their presence, I would take in all the parts of my room and sense which had ‘good’ ones and which had ‘bad’ ones in it. I would see splashes of bright light around everything and the lights would often change colour. I used to call these “the luminous bones” as it looked like peoples’ and objects’ structures lit up on the outside edge of them. I now believe this to have been auras (the energy field around people and things), but I can no longer see them (since doing reiki this has started to return but very slowly). People would tell me not to be silly whenever I talked about the "luminous bones" and I quickly learnt that it was not something good.

I spent many an hour talking to these presences, telling them about my day and I would feel but not hear their responses.

There were a few occasions that I would feel scared by the ghosts and I told my parents whose response was “There’s no such thing as ghosts”, trying to reassure me, as any parent would. Eventually, two older girls who used to play with me told me it was the shadows of the curtains. I thought they must be right and tried to blank my spirit friends from my mind.

The day came when it was time to move house and I said goodbye to my friends and that sense of calm forever. I will tell you all about my next home and the experiences there in another post, so keep checking back for more.

What I will finish by saying is that anyone can communicate with spirit, it is not a gift as it’s so often referred to, but something we all have. We lose the ability due to a lack of acceptance. The very same acceptance that places your heart firmly at home. It is such a shame that there isn't more acceptance and less fear for this kind of thing. The key is in nurturing our youth and accepting them as they are.

Where is your home and where is your heart? Do you accept and give love truly unconditionally?

P.S. I was telling a very special and dear friend about my Roman soldier the other day and it turns out she too saw this ghost as a child. She did live in the next village (Croxteth) so maybe he was a lost soul doing the rounds?

An Introduction To The Weird And Wonderful Life Of Louise.

No matter how young or old we are in this life, at some point, something will have happened that we can’t explain, perhaps that shook us, or made us question, maybe the meaning, purpose or if there is more to life than the simplicity that first meets the eye.

I, myself, have had many of these moments. Starting from a young age, as young as I can remember, I had a sense that I had knowledge of life before this one. It’s hard to explain the way I felt, it was just as if nothing was a new experience – things that excited others were missing the joy and excited expectation from me -  some might describe this as depression, but I felt deep joy at others things and I wouldn't personally describe it as depressed. I also knew things would happen before they did, including people dying. I was a very sensitive and some would say difficult child (my mum would say that!). I picked up on others emotions and feelings, even if I had never felt the same emotion before. As a child this can be quite frightening, especially as some of the things I felt were very adult emotions. Little did I know that I would carry this fear forward into my adult years, learning coping techniques and shutting down the light that shone within me, so I could “fit in” better. Through my childhood I often stood back and watched others play as I felt overwhelmed by the reams of information I received in each situation. I also felt a close infinity with people and beings that I could see but others didn't seem to be able to, I felt protected and at peace with them and chaos when I was with other humans. As you can imagine this made friendships very hard to form and though people thought I was ‘nice’, if they were honest, they also thought I was ‘weird’, let’s face it – I was both!

Over the years it became harder to supress this and things kept happening to force the issue more and more, building like a crescendo within me. A bit like a box with things in it you don’t want others to see, but the lid doesn’t quite fit properly, so every now and again, people get a peep, so you squeeze the lid back on again, only to find it fits less and less, until you can’t keep the lid on anymore. I will write more about these experiences as I share what I now refer to as “my evidence”. The reason I call it that is because my Great Aunty, Rose Haigh, who is a Spiritualist, once told me “find your own evidence” and at the time as a young woman, I wondered what on earth she was talking about.  Over the past six months in particular, I have discovered what she was talking about, on an epic scale and this blog is to share with those interested, what that evidence is.

There are many people, including Great Aunty Rose (and she is a great aunty!), who deserve a blog post all of their own and I will write about these people later.

I accept fully that it is just my own evidence and that it will resonate with some and not at all with others. I’m totally accepting of this and I’m open to questions, debate even, although, I will say that as I’ve experienced it for myself, you will find it hard to question. The same way I wouldn’t be able to question someone else’s life experiences.

To give you a taster of some of the topics I will be covering; the blog will be about the practice of reiki and how it has profoundly changed my life for the better. I will be covering my experience of The Universe, the Laws Of Attraction, the places I have been and the realisations I have made through meditation, Shamanic Journeying and connections with Angels, Guides and Ascended Masters, my spiritual awakening and journey, the people who have inspired me, including those who have come into my life for that purpose then left again. I will also write about the spirits I have seen and the energy healing work I have done so far and plan to further. I can only promise to write from the heart and see where it leads us.

I’d love to hear everyone’s thoughts, feelings and own life experiences, so please do leave comments and any questions that you may have.

I’d like to offer up thanks to those that helped and guided me to start and write this blog. I have immense gratitude for your love and support, as always.

Thanks for reading and please come back for more.

I’d like to finish by adding that if you are my friend or even if you are an acquaintance, I know these subjects may be all too uncomfortable for some. A wise lady called Jayne Darkes once told me that announcing you are going on a spiritual journey is like a snake shedding the skin it no longer needs. It is painful but necessary to leave some of you behind in order that you can be beautiful and function again. How true. For those that can’t stay, I wish you all the love in the world for your own journey.

Lots of my photos feature pink orbs from behind the sun. I will post some more over the coming months. This signifies to me the end of one path and the search for another in my life, with the sun shining down to represent the happiness that awaits.
