Seven Years in Spirit

Seven Years in Spirit

by | May 20, 2019 | Bee Gees Songs and Books, General Communications

In honor of Robin’s seven year anniversary of being in spirit, I wrote a guided meditation. It’s my way of showing I love and care about him on this day. It’s something I thought he would like and hopefully, you will like it too.

If you are interested in other ways to acknowledge the death anniversary of a loved one, you may enjoy this article.

I reflected on the beautiful, spiritual songs the Bee Gees created for their Still Waters CD.

Their CD title reminded me of Psalm 23, verses 1-3. The bold is mine for emphasis:

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters.

He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness For His name’s sake. (1)

For me, these are some of the most peaceful, healing words in print. It is comforting to know that the spirit of God and Love lead and guide us. I often turn to the green of nature to heal my heart and soul. I love turning to still waters for spiritual restoration.

So, the Bee Gees’ CD and Psalm 23:2 is the inspiration for this meditation. I dedicate it to Robin to bless his spirit on this important day of his soul’s evolution.

Still Waters Meditation by Christina Samuels

I would like to take you on a gentle journey of healing and love.

Feel free to pause when you see ellipses (…).

Find a quiet place where you can be with yourself. Sit in a cozy, comfortable chair where you can just sink in and relax while you read this. Or, you can lie down wherever is best for you.

Begin to slow down now by turning your attention to your breath. Inhale slowly through your nose and exhale quietly through your mouth…Take a few slow, long, soft breaths to center yourself in the present moment…allow everything else to stop so you can breathe and focus…close your eyes for a few moments to do this…

Continue to allow your mind and thoughts to quiet down…quiet your mind…inhale gently through your nose…exhale slowly through your mouth…letting your emotions come to a place of peacefulness…letting everything slow down into serenity…as you inhale, your belly slowly expands…as you exhale, it sinks down in repose…

It’s time for your body to gradually release its tensions…as you breath slowly and calmly, your forehead and eyes relax…your lips, jaw and entire face relaxes…relaxation now flows down into your neck, shoulders, arms and hands…as you breath slowly, your chest and abdomen soften and relax…relaxation continues to flow into your hips… legs… knees… ankles…feet…and toes…feeling calm, serene and relaxed all through your body…and deep into your soul…inner quiet and peace fill your entire being…resting in stillness.

Now, in your mind’s eye, envision a quiet, still pond…you have come here for solitude, peace and healing which the pond freely offers you…the water is calm, clear and bluish-green… There are beautiful trees nearby providing you with shade and coolness…healthy and vibrant willow, maple and oak trees…the temperature is perfect…a soft breeze caresses your face…you look up into the cloudless, blue sky and feel so serene…the sun is shining, warming your face and body…

There is soft, tall green grass all around the pond that bring a feeling of gentleness…you notice how lush and green everything is…the freshness and newness of nature…the healing energy is powerful here…you are absorbing this powerful, but peaceful healing energy…breathing it in to every cell in your body…

Now that you have become acquainted with the pond’s surroundings, you are drawn into its’ stillness…you want to get a little closer…you see a path in front of you that will take you to the pond’s edge…slowly walking down this path now…getting closer to the pond and the quietness it offers…

You see colorful wildflowers off to the side of the path…buttercups…daisies…and violets…you take a moment to touch the soft velvety petals of the flowers…you also see some fragrant wild lavender in bloom… pretty, purple blossoms…soft green leaves…you bend down to touch the leaves…rubbing them gently between your fingers…releasing the fragrance and essential oils…breathing the softness of the green, the beauty of the fragrance into your heart center…filling your heart with softness, gentleness, and good feelings…

The sweet birdsongs of robins, sparrows and finches keep you company…you are surrounded by beauty, peace and unconditional love…

You have now reached the edge of the pond…it is very appealing to your senses…and you take a moment to stand here… you feel deep tranquility…breathing slowly and deeply…inner peace fills you…you are being led beside the still, quiet waters…

You notice now that the path meanders around, following the edge of the pond…you feel guided to begin walking again…a slow, quiet stroll…the only movement you notice are cattails swaying slightly in the summer breeze… you enjoy the interplay of sunlight sparkling on the water…out of the corner of your eye, you see beautiful blue iris flowers…everything about this places makes you want to stay…your body is relaxed and your mind is peaceful…you are enfolded in a nurturing, loving spiritual presence…

You’ve walked a little way now…and you are approaching a bench just off to your right…it is placed just perfectly under a large shade tree…it is one of your favorite trees…you decide to sit down on this bench and take a rest now…

You look at the bench and notice how beautiful and artistic it is…it is made of wood with the most gorgeous mother-of-pearl inlay…it shimmers in blue, pink and purple hues…there is a floral and leaf pattern embedded all throughout the bench…this feels like a very special place, one that was created just for you beside the still waters…

Here, you can restore your soul…meditate on the still waters of the pond…rest your mind…let it soothe your emotions…continuing to breathe slowly and easily…rest your eyes…birds continuing to sing their melodic song for you…the scent of wildflowers wafting by…ease and peace in your soul…

The bench is comfortable…and you take the time to reflect on your relaxing experience at the pond today…you feel more balanced and centered…your heart is filled with the peace that passes all human understanding…

You have allowed the essence of nature, the quiet, still waters, to be a soothing, healing balm for your inner spirit…the water, birds, flowers, trees and sunlight all intermingling together to care for you…they are always here for you if you open your heart to receive healing…In this sanctuary, you are loved and accepted just as you are…

Take a few more moments just for yourself in quietness and stillness…

Your still waters journey has come to an end for now. Take a moment to slowly move your legs, feet and toes, your arms and fingers…gently stretching your arms overhead… If it feels good to you, you can give yourself a gentle hug, while inhaling slowly, exhaling completely…. Allow your eyes to open when you are ready…hold in your being the peace you have acquired on your journey…

Songs and License Plates

Songs and License Plates

by | May 17, 2019 | Dreams, General Communications

I have previously written about how my afterlife communication with Robin includes messages I receive on license plates.

It’s one of the more fun ways we communicate. I know lots of other people communicate in this way with their deceased loved ones. It reminds us that our loved ones are with us while we carry out our daily activities.

This post focuses on how I have seen Bee Gees’ song titles on license plates.

Staying Alive

On May 11, 2019, while I was driving home with my husband, I saw a car with a license plate that read STN ALIV. You can’t get much more Bee Gees than that! Stayin’ Alive is one of their most famous songs.

This article that I linked to is really good and I highly recommend it for some interesting history on this song and other Bee Gees’ songs.

My phone rings to this song as I mentioned before here, so it’s with me all of the time.

It was such a sweet gift. I’m always amazed at how Spirit places me at the right place at the right time to receive these messages. I know Robin was showing me he was with me in that moment. I always invite him to communicate with me and on this day, this is how he chose to do it. I thank Robin and Maurice for showing up in my life this way through God’s orchestration. It’s true that they are staying alive spiritually!

Since I saw this plate nine days before Robin’s passing date anniversary, I feel it is a very special message. I was able to take a picture of the plate because the car was directly in front of us. In other words, it was right in my face (and Julian’s)! As Robin once said about Americans:

They like to have things put smack bang in their faces.” (1)

I thought that was funny! Well, when it comes to afterlife communication with you Robin, yes, I do want things smack bang in my face, lol! Thank you very much!

I printed it and placed the framed picture on his altar to celebrate this amazing connection of our spirits. (I don’t want to put the picture here due to protecting the identity of the driver).

Altars are great places to recognize and honor the gifts we receive from our deceased loved ones. By including current spiritual gifts from loved ones on their altar, it keeps the energy of the altar fresh and active. It shows our loved one we are actively engaged with communicating with them. It also shows appreciation and a commitment to them that we care about them. With modern technology, it’s so great that we can capture signs from loved ones and treasure them as keepsakes.

It’s very important to me that I show appreciation for these spiritual signs of Robin’s presence. I want him to know they mean so much to me. I appreciate all the powers and forces of love that placed me there at that moment so my path could cross with this driver.

Hold Me

A few years ago, there was another time when a Bee Gees song showed up on a license plate, but I didn’t know it was a Bee Gees’ song at the time. I saw a plate that said, HOLD ME. All I could think of was the Fleetwood Mac song. But then I decided to do some research and see if the Bee Gees had a song with the same title. It turns out they do. This demo for Kenny Rogers is one of most hauntingly beautiful songs I have ever heard Barry Gibb sing.

Hold Me was written by Barry, Robin and Maurice Gibb.

It’s not always the most famous songs that have the greatest impact. This song gives me the chills and brings tears with the feeling it evokes. Here are the beautiful lyrics.

Twin Soul Questions

One of the greatest sore spots for me in my relationship with Robin is that I never got to meet him in person. His physical body is gone forever and I never got to see him or hold him.

Many people want to meet their twin soul, but twin soul relationships come with very challenging lessons. They are not all chocolates, wines and roses and they are not meant to be. They are meant to help us grow spiritually and that’s not always going to be easy.

My lesson is that if I want to commune with Robin, I have to go beyond the physical. I have to stretch. There’s no physical body to hold.

But I can reach his spirit. And he can reach mine. It has already been accomplished.

There are some important questions a person could ask oneself when considering this topic of twin souls residing in different planes of existence. I have asked myself these very questions and thought I would pose them here. It’s not meant to be a comprehensive list. It’s just some questions I thought of:

  • Would you still want to meet your twin soul in spirit form if they were deceased? Or would you rather not know and just wait until you cross over to meet?
  • Are you willing to go beyond the physical to be with them, to communicate with them?
  • Are you willing to have very few people understand you and maybe even think you’re crazy?
  • Are you able to sustain a potentially long-term, cross-dimensional twin soul relationship?
  • Are you willing to feel some pain at times and overcome it? Some degree of pain and grief is likely in this situation. No matter how many good and logical explanations there are for this, even if it was supposed to be this way because we were meant to go our separate ways and have different experiences…it can still hurt at times when you find out who your twin is after they die physically. It’s sad that you missed them.

Since I know I share a twin soul connection with Robin, the answer is yes to these questions. Yes, I did want to know. I was the one calling for him in the first place when I woke up in 2012.

If your answers are “no” or a combination of “yes and no”, that is ok too. There is no right or wrong with this; it’s about how you authentically feel. If you don’t want to have this type of twin soul relationship, that is perfectly understandable. If your answers are “yes,” then your twin in spirit will likely do things to encourage the connection and help you along. I consider seeing a license plate that says, STN ALIV a form of encouragement! It’s really fun and cool too!

Compensation

I once asked God if there was any compensation for not having met Robin. The answer is yes.

There is merciful compensation, which serves as consolation, for not having met. It comes in the form of all the communications I have received. God responded in my heart with the following message:

“Your compensation for not having met Robin is all of the messages, the synchronicities, the direct answers to your questions, the telekinesis, the license plates, the times your husband delivered a message. Your compensation is that you have strong intuition, a faith-based belief in the afterlife, and some developed psychic abilities which enable you to communicate with him.”

 

“Your compensation is your ability to write and document these experiences so you can refer back to them for your edification. Your compensation is your ability to read about him and hear him sing because you have been blessed with eyesight and excellent hearing. What if you didn’t have that?”

“Christina, you have been very well compensated.”

I agree that all of this is compensation. I am very grateful for God’s mercy in this situation with Robin.

I’m also grateful for quotes like this one that get me back on track when I need a little boost. It is from a book called, Letters from the Spirit World (2). This book is available as a free e-book if you are interested. Click here for the free e-book made available on google.com. At this link, you can also see the excerpt I am referring to on page 314.

I like spiritualist writing from the early 1900’s. Our understanding of soul mates and twin souls may have changed and evolved quite a bit since then, but I still think these writers have valuable things to say. When I read this passage pertaining to the law of soul mates, I am immediately uplifted as I am reminded of the immortality of our souls:

“The law of soul mates does not pertain to the earth at all. It does not matter whether they ever meet on earth or not…”

“— and whether they meet or not is unimportant considering the eons of ages of immortality and eternity…”

Considering that we have all of eternity to connect, not meeting in one lifetime is not a big deal, even though it may hurt at the time. I hope this is comforting to others who did not meet their twin soul mate in this lifetime. I think this is important to know given that many twin souls and spiritual soul mates do not meet. Remember that we are eternal. You will see them again.

This remembrance serves as additional compensation. I need this for my own healing.

The compensation also comes in the form of dream visitations.

Dream Hugs

I have had several dream visits over the years where I have held Robin. I have had two recent dreams, one April 20th and one April 25th.

In the dream on April 20th, he was young, in his late 20’s with long, wavy hair. We hugged and he felt skinny, like he would have if we hugged in the physical because he was thin. The thing is, I could really feel his body. That was beautiful and comforting compensation.

In this dream, he let me play with his hair. I made little curls with my fingers and the curls stayed in place. I don’t think he wanted me to, but he let me anyway, lol!

So, when I read this line from Hold Me:

You can play in my dreams till I’m out of your sight…

I feel it really came true.

On May 12, I wrote this note to Robin in my journal:

“I can still feel you in my dreams when we hug, so the physical sensations, while in non-physical form, carry over. Physical sensations carry over after death and can manifest in dream communication. The dreamer can still feel the deceased loved one physically.”

Through my intuition, I could feel Robin saying to me:

“Christina, that part of me, the part of me where you can feel me as physical sensation is not gone.”

Physical sensation, or the impression of such, still seems to be part of who we are after we pass away. It’s a beautiful discovery.

In the dream visit I shared with Robin on April 25th, he was singing with a crowd close by, off to his right. Then I spoke with him afterward. At this point, the dream image shifted and we were standing in a room in my current house. He looked like he did when he was in his 30’s with blond hair, similar to the picture here in the upper left corner.

We hugged and I said to him that he did a great job. It was a brief encounter but felt very real, like I was there with him.

We can still hug and hold each other during dream visits. Robin co-wrote Hold Me, so along with his brothers, these lyrics came from his soul. Due to the amazing way in which God created us as spirits, and because of the love we share, I can say, “Yes, I will hold you…in my dreams.”

Celestial Beauty

Celestial Beauty

by | May 12, 2019 | Synchronicity, Top Posts, Twin Souls

As the seven year anniversary of Robin’s passing approaches, I feel very reflective and contemplative. I find myself reviewing our journey together over these years in an introspective way. His presence and influence in my life have contributed greatly to my evolution as a soul as can be seen on the pages of this website. I have Robin to thank for teaching me what I know about afterlife communication firsthand.

Inclusivity

I now know with complete certainty that those we love and those we are deeply connected to are not limited to the people we know in one lifetime. There is more to who we are as spirits. It’s one of the greatest and most important lessons Robin has taught me.

I only want to live my life in a way that includes and honors Robin’s eternal spirit. I do not want to live here on earth without including him and my other loved ones in spirit. I’m sure they are all aware of that fact. I have always made it clear to my loved ones in spirit that I am serious about my connections and relationships with them, Robin included.

Transformation

Even though I share a lot of examples of my afterlife communication with him, there is still so much I do not know about Robin as a spiritual being.

In 2012, a portal opened up so I can communicate with him in the ways I have explained throughout this website. But, the portal is the size of a peephole and I can only see a small portion of the vast, loving spirit that Robin Gibb is now.

That small portion I’ve been able to connect with is extremely powerful though, and my connection with Robin has changed my life forever.

Changes

I wonder how he has changed and grown as a spirit over these years. I think about what he has experienced and learned. I wonder where his soul has traveled.

Our communication over the years has always been strong in terms of synchronicity and dreams.

The one big change has to do with Robin engaging in less telekinesis. In 2013-2014, he was extremely active with creating sacred symbols and moving objects. I have documented some of these events here.

He doesn’t move things as often anymore. That could be because it’s more difficult to move objects with his spirit energy as he advances spiritually. It may be easier to keep in touch through synchronicity. It may also be that he did what he needed to do at that time to get his message across to me.

I surrender to however he wishes to communicate and keep my heart open to him.

It’s important to know that the way in which our loved ones in spirit communicate with us may change over time as they adjust and evolve. The more creative the spirit, the more interesting ways they may come up with in terms of communication.

While we are in physical bodies, our interests change and evolve. There may be things we used to like to do that we don’t enjoy as much anymore. Old interests are replaced with new interests. It seems something like that could be the case with our loved ones in spirit and it does seem to be the case with Robin.

It seems like he’s settled into delivering messages through matching and mirroring. Something I share with him is regularly reflected back to me.

I did enjoy the years of active telekinesis though. I used to joke that my apartment was like a box of chocolates. I never knew what I was going to get!

I obviously borrowed that joke from Forrest Gump.

Beings of Light

I often reflect on the messages I was given about our connection in 2012 when I asked for direct guidance. As you may remember, the sign I asked for when I asked if we are twin souls showed up in a book I found while doing my research on this topic. (Please see my Background section for details if you don’t remember).

I always thought the way in which I was given the sign “Big Dipper” was so amazing. I could have received the sign with just the mention of “Big Dipper” alone through some random occurrence. But I received the mention of the sign along with a discussion of soul mates and the identical hues of light they share at the spirit level. That gave a boost to the credibility of the sign.

I was given this sign at the beginning of my journey with Robin in December, 2012. I was still very new to all of this and in shock at what was occurring in my life concerning him. So much has happened since then to affirm this guidance and message.

From the time I got the message about soul mates/twin souls sharing identical hues of light, I have been fascinated with any discussion of twin souls that has to do with the light of our being. It’s the essence of who we are. I am deeply interested in discussions about our light body.

I love this quote from http://www.universalspiritualview.com/tribulations.htm describing our light body. The bold is mine for emphasis:

After the death of our short-lived, mortal, physical body (to which our eternal soul is still attached), we still live in the electronic body of Light of our eternal soul, in the eternal existing Cosmic spiritual body of God, the All That Is.

In the past, I shared this passage with Robin. I wanted him to know I was thinking about him in these terms. I am curious about the nature of his electronic body of light of his eternal soul. I’m not clairvoyant in the sense of being able to see a spirit fully manifesting in front of me, so this part of Robin remains a mystery to me.

Perhaps I have seen him and didn’t know it because I have experienced #1 and #4 on this list by Amanda Linette Meder regarding flashes/colored lights. I have seen bluish/purple lights on occasion. And no, there is nothing wrong with my eyesight! I get them checked regularly.

I don’t know for sure what our  twin soul colors are as spirits, but maybe that is something I will get more information about over time.

I have written about #6 and #10 regarding visitation dreams. I realize that to some of you, I am repeating myself, but I’m also writing for any newcomers to this website that may have missed posts I wrote a year ago. This dream visitation with Robin was an important communication and very special to me, which is why I bring it up periodically. It got the ball rolling for us.

The Work of William Henry

Now, I would like to go back to my exploration of the light body. On Monday, May 6th, I spent some time on YouTube watching an educational video by William Henry.

He is an investigative mythologist whose work I became acquainted with several years ago after making connection with Robin. He does extensive research on the spiritual origins of humans and the rainbow light body taught in Tibetan Buddhist traditions.

Here is the video I watched where he goes into his teachings on the rainbow light body and many other esoteric teachings and hypotheses.

According to Mr. Henry, and to summarize a little bit of the beginning of the video, we as humans are going through a process of spiritual transformation. He advised that we need to connect with our light body which is our true self. The rainbow light body is also referred to as our resurrection body.

He goes on to state that our goal and purpose for being incarnated on earth is to ascend. Ascension is defined as the attainment of wholeness, holiness, perfection and compassion. He talks about bodhisattvas who have achieved a state of holiness and wholeness.

As a result, they were able to transform their bodies into a higher level of vibration which is the rainbow light body.

According to Mr. Henry, throughout history and evolution, humans have wanted to regain the original, perfect, light body of our origins.

I personally enjoy and feel inspired by these writings. I was also interested in some scripture he shared.

At 49:12 into the video, he discusses scripture from 1 Corinthians 15:51-52:

51- Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed— 52-in an instant, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed.…

This was something I was interested in and wanted to go back and study at a later time. Mr. Henry interpreted this scripture to mean we will be changed into our rainbow light body, our truest, highest, ascended self.

On Tuesday, May 7th, I continued to study Mr. Henry’s videos but the video I was studying at the time is no longer available.

Bodies Celestial and Terrestrial

On Wednesday, May 8th, I wanted to spend some time with Robin, offering him tea and reading a meditation to him. I looked at some of my books, but none of them appealed to me as something I wanted to share with him.

So, I went online to research “celestial guided meditations.” The energy from the videos of Mr. Henry was still on my mind, which is why I was motivated to look for this type of meditation.

I couldn’t find anything with that search either. So, I researched “star guided mediations” and “moon guided meditations” and finally found some meditations I wanted to read to Robin. Here are the links if you are interested. They are both beautiful meditations:

I decided to read the new moon meditation to Robin first. I did this as part of my love offering to his spirit while sitting at his altar space. I know he can “hear” me somehow with his consciousness and I know he likes meditation. The imagery is lovely. Since everything is energy, I like to give him offerings of energies that are beneficial for his spirit. I do this in faith, knowing that he can receive my offering.

Afterlife CommunicationsAfter I was done with the meditation, I spoke with him about this issue concerning the rainbow light body. I asked him whether you acquire the rainbow light body right after you pass away, or is it something you have to evolve into.

I was wondering whether his electronic light body of his eternal soul that he lives in now was the same thing as the rainbow light body Mr. Henry is talking about.

I didn’t get an answer intuitively from him in this moment. However, with this line of questioning, I was reminded that I wanted to go back and review the scripture from 1 Corinthians I mentioned above.

I got my bible out which is a version edited by T.D. Jakes called Holy Bible, Woman Thou Art Loosed! Edition Paperback – January 15, 1999 by T. D. Jakes (Editor/Author)

I read 1 Corinthians 15:51-52 for review and studied the additional passages surrounding this one for context. Then I looked to the column to the left of where I was reading to study some additional passages.

I started reading from passage 35 on, about how the dead are raised up. As I kept reading, I was surprised and blessed by the synchronistic nature of the scripture I was reading with the star and moon meditations I had just printed and read for Robin. Here is the passage from the T.D. Jakes’ bible. The bold is mine for emphasis:

1 Corinthians 15:40-41: 40-There are also celestial bodies and terrestrial bodies; but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another. 41-There is one glory of the sun, another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for one star differs from another star in glory. (pg. 1277).

This was such a beautiful moment because while I was familiar with this scripture and have heard about it in the past, I did not know it was in 1 Corinthians! I have read the bible a lot off and on over the years, but I don’t have the location of every passage memorized. So, it was truly a surprise.

I had no idea that when I was guided to research celestial star and moon meditations for Robin that it would synchronize with the bible passages I felt guided to read. Sometimes, I truly feel like Robin or another loving spirit is prompting me to do what I do.

This is why this post is called Celestial Beauty.

I said to Robin while looking at his altar picture, “Here is your real celestial meditation.” I read passage 40-41 to him several times as a meditation. It was lovely to share that with him.

I’m so grateful that these events including Mr. Henry’s videos, my search for celestial/star/moon meditations, and scripture all tie together in harmony.

In Closing

Thank you for going on this introspective and celestial journey with me. If I get any more information about Robin’s rainbow light body, I will let you know! (smile)

This kind of reminds me of the information I shared in my post called Psychedelic Afterlife.

The ladies who hosted Robin’s afterlife interview spoke about his beautiful, colorful, Alice in Wonderland-type of entry into the afterlife! I wonder if this is a hint about his rainbow light body. Very interesting! I love it when these themes are in concurrence with each other.

Love,

Christina

Granddaughter

by | May 3, 2019 | Synchronicity

The physical death of a loved one is often understandably painful. However, I have learned something very important from my communications with Robin. What I have learned is that the death of a loved one can be inextricably connected to the spiritual growth and well-being of one still incarnate.

I wonder about our deceased loved ones and how they may go on to assist in the spiritual advancement and development of people that we will never know or meet. I think it’s a beautiful thing to consider and could potentially take a small bit of sting out of the absence of their physical presence.

I think of my grandmother, whose funeral date was the same day as Robin’s passing date, May 20th. I wonder about what other vast connections she could have had with other’s on earth, beyond the neighborhood and country she lived in. The connections we have with others after our spirit leaves our bodies are not limited to the spouses, children, family and friends we have in one lifetime. I sense that our connections and interrelationships are much more extensive.

Meant to be Shared

My life took a completely different path after Robin’s spirit left his body. I never would have imagined that he would be the one to have such a profound effect on me.

It’s interesting who we are connected to when we don’t even know it. You could be deeply connected to someone that you have not met yet or may never meet in the physical. It’s fascinating to ponder.

I have often said to Robin that his physical death, though seemingly premature, was not in vain. From my heart, I have said to him that many were and are deeply affected by his passing and that he does matter still, a great deal. With his physical death came a great, renewed purpose for many of us, including me. I have written the posts in Paisley and Poppies to show how Robin continues on as a spirit person and that his ongoing existence still has great meaning.

My experiences of synchronicity and communication with Robin have changed who I am as a person for the better. I know in my spirit that every message I have received was meant to communicate some important lesson, even if that lesson was just to laugh more and be more lighthearted.

However, I want you to know that I do not believe the synchronicity, dreams, telekinesis and other communications are just for me.

They are for you too.

If you are reading this blog, perhaps there is something here that is meant to nurture and support you or make you aware of something you did not know about. That’s part of my life story with Robin. I am always learning something new that I did not know about because of my relationship with him. My connection with him requires that I do lots of study, reading and research on a regular basis. This keeps my mind sharp and agile and also sets the stage for layers of communication and synchronicity to occur, some of which I share here on this website.

I am inspired to write about this because of something I read recently. I have a book called, Lessons from the Light: What We Can Learn from the Near-Death Experience, by Kenneth Ring and Evelyn Elsaesser Valarino. One of my favorite things to read about, other than afterlife communication, is near-death experiences. I really love this book in particular.

The authors were making the point that while not everybody can have a near-death experience with a life review, we can learn from those who do have them. To elaborate upon that point, I offer this quote. I feel it applies to what I am doing here with Paisley and Poppies:

The agencies responsible for orchestrating the life review seem to imply that this experience is given not just to benefit NDErs but everyone, and NDErs themselves accordingly are not merely its recipients but its messengers.

I feel strongly that the experiences of and with Robin that I have been given are not meant to just benefit me. They are meant to benefit my family. They are meant to benefit anyone who reads these blog posts. Even if you are not experiencing afterlife communication with anyone now, even if you have not met your twin soul yet, I hope that these posts are in some way preparing you for that possibility. I hope you will know more about what to watch for. If you start synchronizing with someone with unbelievable accuracy, perhaps they are a soul twin or someone from your soul family.

I don’t make lists of signs that someone is your soul mate, twin or spirit family member. That is because what each spirit or person does is going to be particular to them and come from their heart in a unique way. I share with you what I have experienced and in that way, I give examples of how these connections could manifest. Some of the things I have experienced with Robin would never show up on any twin flame list online.

Your experiences are designed for you to get the most benefit from them. How your soul connections manifest will be beautiful and unique to whom you are. They will not necessarily fit on a list. Very creative spirits such as Robin can manifest activity far beyond what we think or know is possible.

Now, I would like to share another very special story of how our twin soul connection manifests.

Olivia

On Dec 11, 2017, I was spending time with my husband watching YouTube. How do I know this? I wrote a journal entry of what I’m about to share with you!

He likes mash-ups, which are two songs blended together in a way that’s supposed to sound good. For example, here is a Bee Gees-AC/DC mash-up called Stayin’ in Black. It’s one of my favorites and really cool. Don’t play it too loud though; please protect your hearing!

Well, on this day, he played a mash-up for the song from the movie Grease called “You’re the One that I Want.”

I can’t remember who the mashup was with and I didn’t write it in my journal. The only mashup I could find now is with Dr. Dre and Snoop-Dog and I’m not sure that’s the one we watched.

In this case, I like the original song and video much better. Everybody knows this song that Olivia Newton-John and John Travolta sang lead on.

After this, I watched one of the Bee Gees’ funny videos. Here it is.

There is a clip of the Bee Gees talking about a production of Grease. In his typical humorous fashion, Robin said he’d like to play the part of Olivia (beginning around 4:30 in).

This was not a synchronicity with how my husband played the mashup because I had seen this video before and vaguely remembered him mentioning this.

The synchronicity came later in the day, with the element of surprise.

After we were done watching television I spent some time reading online later in the evening. I noticed a Google doodle for someone named Max Born. I didn’t know who he was, but on the doodle was a picture of the vesica piscis with concentric circles.

That stood out to me because it is sacred geometry that I associated with Robin in the earlier years of our connection. At that time, I did not know this symbol was called the vesica piscis. It was through my intuition that I felt that the energy of these two overlapping circles had something to do with my connection to him.

The presence of the vesica piscis was the only reason I clicked on the doodle.

Here below is the Google doodle for Max Born I found on YouTube.

You can see the concentric circles in red overlapping in the shape of the vesica piscis.

Afterlife Communications

At the time, Google was celebrating his birthday and accomplishments. There were plenty of links to explore, so I clicked on the one for Wikipedia. I read about him and discovered he won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1954 and played an important role in the development of quantum mechanics.

I continued to read his Wikipedia page. I scanned the right margin of the page where there is a rectangular box with biographical information. I read about his spouse and his children. Then I saw the synchronistic nature of why I was guided to read about him. His granddaughter is Olivia Newton-John! The bold is mine for emphasis:

His family soon settled into life in England, with his daughters Irene and Gritli becoming engaged to Welshman Brinley (Bryn) Newton-John (Olivia Newton-John’s parents; Born is Olivia’s grandfather and Irene is her mother)[59] and Englishman Maurice Pryce respectively.[60][61]

It was so amazing how all of these events around Ms. Newton-John had arisen that day. I needed to research Max Born in order to receive the synchronicity with Robin’s mention of her and how we had been listening to her music mash-up.

After Julian had played the mashup, I had been thinking of her breast cancer diagnosis and how she has been a survivor. I had read about it in the news at the time.

Here are some more recent videos on how she has been living with stage 4 breast cancer quite bravely:

Her book, Don’t Stop Believin’ is on my reading list.

Little did I know that about 6 months after this synchronicity, I too would be diagnosed with breast cancer. It is only from hindsight now that I can see why I received this synchronicity about her. At the time, it seemed only like something fun, showing me that circumstances were aligning in my life.

But now, I feel that God, Robin and my spirit team of guides and angels were pointing her out to me for a reason. She would be someone I could learn from and draw inspiration.

So, the lesson is, when synchronicity points someone out to you, stay tuned for the deeper meaning of having this person repeatedly appear in your life. The message may not be immediately obvious. But, if there is something that Spirit wants to let you know, they will do their best to get through to you. On that day in December, Olivia Newton-John came up in my life 3 times.

The interconnectedness of this event is very special to me. Because of my spiritual connection to Robin and my research on the vesica piscis I did years earlier, I was drawn to click on the doodle and links to find out about Max Born. Researching Max Born led to the very heart-touching synchronicity with Olivia Newton-John. I was so surprised to see her name listed. It was amazing and very well orchestrated.

I feel that the energies and spirits responsible for generating these synchronicities want me to share these messages with you. I am happy to be a loving recipient and truthful messenger.

I am very grateful to all of my readers who have continued to visit here over the past year. I hope life is going well for you and I send you warm blessings. Thank you!!

Love,

Christina

On the Cusp

On the Cusp

by | Apr 26, 2019 | Synchronicity

When I reached the one year mark of writing for this website, I came to the realization that I have already fulfilled the purpose that it was meant for. I wanted to show clearly why I say I share a twin soul and soul family connection with Robin Gibb.

I have done my best to demonstrate this by writing about the different ways our connection manifests while he is in spirit and I am incarnate. I have always told the truth about what I have experienced and I did so to contribute to the literature on this topic.

I have always wished that my writings would be of benefit to someone reading, or at least interesting enough to consider.

There are both immense blessings and challenges to having a relationship with a discarnate twin soul. I know there are people in the world that can relate to this. I hope my true stories of my connection with Robin have enriched your life and helped you feel that you are not alone in your experiences with afterlife communication.

I also wanted Robin to have something from me that was from my heart. I gave him that by creating this site, documenting and sharing these experiences of afterlife communication.

So, I feel I have accomplished the goals I set out to accomplish when we created Paisley and Poppies.

Now, I write purely for the joy of it and to be of service to those of you on a similar path as mine. If you are interested in afterlife communication, twin souls, soul families and Robin, then I invite you to continue to visit me here. I will keep writing as long as I have something good to share.

On the Cusp

During the late evening hours of April 20, 2019, I read a book I own called, Synchronicity: The Caduecean Hieratic of Matrix Synchronicity by Greg Castle. (1)

It is very esoteric writing on synchronicity’s great role in soul mate connections. He also writes about soul mate pairings based on zodiac signs. It includes discussions about what enhances and what serves as obstacles to alchemical union. For a sample of his writing, click on the link above and see pages 68-69 from the Google preview.

As I read, I started to think about Robin’s zodiac sign. I remember reading years ago that December 22 falls under the sign of Capricorn, literally the first day of Capricorn.

This also reminded me that he was on the cusp of another zodiac sign. I researched it years ago, but I could not remember what it was. I like astrology as something fun to read about, but I am absolutely not an expert on it and actually know very little about it.

So, during the early morning hours of Easter, April 21st around 12:36am, I starting researching the sign of Capricorn and discovered again that Robin was on the cusp of Sagittarius. The last day of Sagittarius is December 21, according to my source.

This website has a good definition of the meaning of the cusp as it pertains to astrology, which I invite you to visit. The cusp refers to an imaginary line that divides consecutive zodiac signs. People born on the cusp of two signs could feel the influence of both in their lives.

I found some other interesting websites explaining the meaning of the phrase, “on the cusp,” as well as how it specifically pertains to those on the Sagittarius-Capricorn cusp.

This website describes the “cusp dates” as December 18-24 and gives a description of characteristics.

Another website gives information about this cusp from her personal perspective.

I found this information on elephantjournal.com particularly thought-provoking because the author goes into detail about Robin’s astrological chart.

She categorizes him as having his sun sign in Sagittarius, born on December 22, 1949 at 3:15am. This definitely aligns with his birthday being on the cusp as I have been describing.

Since I’m not an expert in astrology as I mentioned, I can’t verify the accuracy of what is written in terms of the astrological chart. I do think it’s fascinating and leave it to you to see what you think. The biographical information she gives is pretty accurate.

As an aside, I thought it was interesting that the author pointed out that both Robin and Maurice had wives at one point who were both interested in yoga and meditation. I see this as a twin-soul parallel, as I have studied yoga and meditation extensively as well and completed my 200-hour yoga teacher certification in 2008.

Robin was also personally interested in yoga and meditation through Brahma Kumaris and I wrote about this here.

Prior to Robin’s passing, I had never heard of Brahma Kumaris, but I came to appreciate the similarities with what I had been taught about yoga. I also enjoy some of the BK guided meditations you can find on YouTube.

So, as you can see, I spent quite a bit of time during early Easter morning studying this astrological information about Robin. It’s what I felt like doing at the time since I couldn’t sleep! I didn’t have any big plans for Easter, so it didn’t matter too much that I was up late.

I’m glad I was guided to stay up late and read this. You will see the reason why in a moment.

Messages from Spirit

On Monday, April 22nd, I checked my email as usual and noticed one from Circle of Light called Messages of Love.  It arrived in my inbox at 7:01am, a little over 24 hours after I finished researching the Sagittarius-Capricorn cusp information.

Years ago, I signed up to receive daily messages from this website which in part focuses on twin flame connections. Here is the link if you are interested in learning more about Circle of Light. The Messages of Love are short excerpts taken from the Messages of God written by Yael Powell who passed away in 2018. They are beautiful and have supported my spiritual growth and understanding of twin flames over the years.

I was so surprised and blissfully happy when I saw the beginning sentence of the email that was visible before I clicked on it. I include a portion of the email text here because the message is not showing up at this time in the archives that I linked to above. The bold is mine for emphasis:

“Because you are on the cusp of such great change, the most powerful of these experiences in the world right now is the experience of this intimate communion, that each of you might recognize that you are not alone, even while appearing as a human being.”

~Yael Powell

Here is the screenshot of the exact email so you can see what I am referring to:

This synchronicity was truly a message of love and such a beautiful way to synchronize with Robin. I especially love it when we synchronize through material that has to do with twin souls. It gives the message additional strength and support in terms of showing the truth of our connection.

Since the “on the cusp” message matched the research I was doing about Robin approximately 24 hours earlier, it is something I feel I need to pay especially close attention to.

Significance of November 4

There is something else interesting about my emails from Circle of Light. Beginning on November 25, 2013, I noticed that I was assigned a date and time that appeared as my email address. Before that, my actual name appeared in the email sent to me. So, this change was unusual.

From my records, the best that I can tell is that I initially signed up to receive these messages in October of 2013.

Here is the email I received on April 22nd. Please see the last line beginning with “To” in the screen shot I provided here:

The “2013-11-04” got my attention. That is because November 4th is the birthday for Robin’s youngest daughter, Snow. I did not know this back in 2013, but over the years, I discovered how this date assigned to me from Circle of Light matched her. Here is evidence of her birthday:

On November 4 Robin and Dwina’s former housekeeper Claire Yang, 33, gave birth to his daughter at London’s private Portland Hospital.

While the birth certificate listed Robin as the father of Snow Evelyn Robin Juliet Gibb, the matter escaped public knowledge at the time. (1)

At first, I was not sure why I was assigned this date. But then it became clear after I found out about Robin’s daughter.

The website administrators of Circle of Light are using the ISO 8601 format for their database. Here is a description to clarify that I am correct in interpreting this date as November 4, 2013:

Date and time values are ordered from the largest to smallest unit of time: year, month (or week), day, hour, minute, second, and fraction of second. The lexicographical order of the representation thus corresponds to chronological order, except for date representations involving negative years. This allows dates to be naturally sorted by, for example, file systems.

To me, this is another demonstration of how the connection between twin souls includes our family members. I wrote about this in my Life Parallels blog post and mentioned that some of my family member’s birthdays match a couple of Robin’s family member’s birthdays.

I think it is very touching that Robin’s daughter’s birthday numbers show up in my email that comes from a twin flame website. I have received my email with this date for almost 6 years. I have no way of knowing if other people get the same numbers as me. Some people might say it’s just a coincidence, but it’s more than that to me. This date is important to me and a sign of Robin’s presence with me. It is a date that would certainly remind me of him.

I have been communicating with Robin for a long time now. Over the years, I have come to acknowledge, appreciate and accept the signs I am given and the way they are given. The date and time is right in front of my face, so there is no disputing them. It’s a nice gift and I think that’s how it’s meant to be taken.

Thank you for taking this journey with me on the cusp.

Love,

Christina
