Connecting across dimensions (or, the veil is t h i n n i n g)

As we approach late October and the various traditions and holidays that acknowledge and honor our ancestors and loved ones on the other side, the veil is thinning. You may find yourself thinking of your loved ones, reflecting on ancestral patterns, or even having dreams or waking experiences where you sense their presence in a subtle or overt way.

Simple rituals, such as setting out a glass of water on an altar with items belonging to those who have crossed over, or simply lighting a candle in honor of your loved ones, are beautiful ways to invite a deeper connection across dimensions. And yet, we may long for a deeper connection. We may long to "hear" a message or even to "see" our loved one as we have heard fantastical accounts of visits from those on the other side. However, as I have learned over the years, for many of us, working with our intention and focused awareness is the surest way to effect changes in our intuitive and psychic gifts--often little by little.

One approach to support your ability to connect directly with those on the other side is to focus your awareness on your heart center, your most accessible multidimensional gateway. Begin by inviting your presence into this area, perhaps with gentle breath. Remind yourself of the current date and your age, as you strengthen your connection to the earth to release anything that no longer serves you, or that impedes your ability to connect (it may be helpful to begin your session with this free guided meditation to support your grounding.) Intend to soften and open your heart chakra to connect with your loved one, and ask your Spirit to help you feel their presence. You may experience physical sensations or receive other intuitive impressions. Do not feel discouraged if you don't notice anything. The more you work with your intention to invite a connection, the more you strengthen this ability. You can also ask to receive clear signs from your loved ones of their presence and their love for you. I highly recommend the book Signs: The Secret Language of the Universe, by medium Laura Lynne Jackson on this topic.

Another option to connect with your loved ones in a meaningful way is a mediumship session. Mediumship offers a direct and potent experience, essentially allowing us to have a two way "conversation" (often in the form of symbols and songs in addition to the possibility of channeled messages) with a loved one who has crossed over. A distinct process from psychic reading (which reads your energy field, anchored in your body), mediums must attune to a higher frequency in order to connect with those who have crossed over. This is an ability I have not formally studied, and yet over the past couple of years it has been awakening in me, whether I felt I could claim it with legitimacy or not. I have had many sessions now, where spirits connected to a client (by request or not!) have entered into a psychic reading, offering messages of comfort, apology, explanation, or a desire to contribute to the healing of old dynamics or patterns.

After a recent experience, where I successfully brought through evidential information regarding loved ones for four individuals during back-to-back 20 minute mini-readings, I felt I had finally "cut my teeth" enough to add mediumship sessions as an offering. As always, I strive to go beyond providing information or messages, and am excited to eplore the many aspects of healing that can accompany mediumship. This may involve healing for unresolved Spiritual contracts, supporting my client's ability to connect directly with those they desire to, bringing through blessings and gifts, and more, as guided by Spirit. I am also able to support earthbound souls in stepping into a higher frequency, to depart the earthly realm so they can begin their healing on the other side and be more available in the future to support and guide those they love from a higher vibrational state.

I am excited to add this offering to my services, and honored to support those who feel called to connect in this way. For more information on mediumship sessions, please visit my Services page.

Peace, from my multi-dimensional heart to yours.
