Catch

Catch

When it comes to afterlife communication with Robin, I don’t always know exactly what’s going on. Most of the time, the messages are clear to me. But on other occasions, there is a bit of mystery at play, which I also enjoy.

Who says everything always has to be 100% clear cut? How can it be when you consider we are communicating across different planes of existence?

Even if I’m not always completely sure what’s going on, I still believe the stories are worth sharing with you because that is the way life is sometimes: not always clear. When things aren’t clear with afterlife communication, it leads me down a different path in my thinking, pondering the various fascinating possibilities.

If we’re honest, most of us engaging in afterlife communication with loved ones in spirit have situations arise that leave us scratching our head.

Now I will present to you one of those situations for me.

Playing Catch Dream

During the early morning hours of Monday, December 10, 2018, I dreamed that I was playing catch with someone. I don’t know who he was. He was young, perhaps in his 20’s. We were sitting on the floor playing catch. The ball was a soft plush ball and we were tossing it back and forth. It was something like this, usually used as a dog toy.

Then, the guy in the dream wanted to switch balls and use a softball. I said to him not to toss it too hard. But basically, he wanted to play catch with two ‘soft’ balls.

I like the symbolism of softness.

That was the end of the dream.

At lunch that day, I spoke with Robin about how I had this dream about playing catch out of the blue with someone I did not know. I spoke with him about this while sitting alone at his altar space. I said to him that I did not think it was him and I couldn’t recognize the person.

I mentioned it to Robin because it was unusual. I don’t play catch or think about playing catch, not that there’s anything wrong with it. I don’t have kids in my life to play catch with or a dog so where this dream came from, I don’t know.

During the next day, December 11th, I went shopping with Julian to a local big-box store. We were looking for the shortest line for the cashier. I was in one line and then Julian went walking over to the next registers to see if any were shorter.

When I looked over to him, he was standing there smiling, holding a rubber ball that was a little smaller than the size of a basketball. He told me the line over where he was, was shorter. I walked over and stood behind him.

He held the ball in his hand and said, “Do you want to play catch?”

I was pretty much waiting for him to say that. It all seemed so strange since I had just had the dream about playing catch the night before. I said yes and we stood there playing catch for a few moments while waiting in line. The kids in line behind us joined in for a little while. It was fun.

Julian did not know I had this dream about playing catch. I told him about it after our shopping trip was over. I thought it was a psychic connection with him.

We are not in the habit of playing catch at checkout lines! In the 20+ years I’ve known Julian, I don’t ever remember him doing that.

I told Robin about the dream, as I mentioned. But I’m not sure if he had anything to do with this game of catch or not, “channeling” through Julian. As I mentioned in other posts, Robin does communicate with me through him.

But this time, I could not detect whether it was Robin for sure. Still, I was suspicious and I still am.

Was he blending with Julian because I had told him the day before about the dream, and wanting to play catch as a way of communicating back to me? Was it a psychic connection between Julian and me? Or was it a combination of these 2 scenarios?

Sometimes with afterlife communication, you don’t know for sure what is going on.

Behavior of Twins in Spirit

This definitely got me thinking though because, according to Sal Rachele in his book Soul Integration, it is possible for twin souls in higher planes to have some of their energy in souls on earth.

Here is a brief excerpt from Soul Integration, explaining the point I am making:

“…oftentimes twin flame counterparts in the higher realms will “channel” through a number of different souls on Earth, and therefore, have some of their energy embedded into those various Earth-bound souls…” (Chapter 2- Soul Mates and Twin Flames, pg. 87).

“…Of course, the next best thing to meeting your twin flame would be talking to him or her through another human being who is acting as a channel or vehicle…” (pg. 87).

Talking to him or playing catch with him through another human being who just happens to be my husband. That’s pretty wild isn’t it!

This aligns with the information I previously shared with you, by author James Judd, in my post called Close to You.

Judd explained that a spouse can serve as a channel between a twin pair when one is in spirit and one is incarnate.

After what I have witnessed over the years, some of which I have shared with you on this website, I can confidently say that my husband often acts as a channel, messenger, or a vehicle for Robin. I think it is possible that was happening in this case of playing catch. Robin is quite capable of doing this.

Afterlife CommunicationsI don’t think it’s only Julian that Robin channels through, though. He connects with other people who are around me. For example, I wrote to you about the cashier who put his hand up to his ear on the same day I read about how Robin used to do that. I feel like that was Robin’s spirit coming through, unbeknownst to the cashier carrying on the jovial conversation with me. (See  blog post Maying in December for more information about this occurrence).

What I know for sure is my spirit was connected to both Julian and Robin through this event because I shared it with both of them. My soul was strongly connected with Julian by virtue of playing catch a day after I spoke with Robin about this dream. Maybe it’s that we needed a childlike sense of fun. We bought the ball because I wanted a keepsake of this beautiful, mysterious and unique occurrence.

Premonition Dreams

I have had a few other dreams in the past that came true in my everyday life, but it is not very often.

For example, during the summer of 2017, I had a dream about being at the eye doctor’s. I was sitting in the chair for an eye exam. The doctor looked at me and said “eye surgery.” That was the end of the dream.

At that time, I had been having no problems with my eyes whatsoever.

A few weeks after that however, I had a posterior vitreous detachment which means you develop flashes and floaters. This happened with my eyes out of the blue.

Other than that, I still had normal vision. It’s something that happens as you get older. I was very frightened at the time because I had never had anything like this happen before and never had problems with my eyesight. I didn’t know what was going on with my eyes.

I ended up going to see an ophthalmologist, which is an eye surgeon. But I did not need eye surgery. Other than this, I have very healthy eyes and over time, the flashes and floaters calmed down on their own. This is the typical result of a PVD.

Perhaps these dreams come from my soul, guardian angels, and spirit, letting me know in advance what is going to happen in a small, select number of cases. When I had these dreams, I had no idea they would come true in real life. Some may call them premonition dreams.

They seem to originate from the soul’s own inner wisdom and knowledge.

I think a lot of us are discounted and discredited to the point that we may believe that we don’t have this inner knowledge about ourselves. But we do. This knowledge may show up in your dreams or in other ways.

Connections with loved ones, incarnate and discarnate, may show up as well!

Perhaps over time, it will become even more clear to me, what was going on that day we played catch in the store.

Love,

Christina

Thumbs Up

Thumbs Up

It has been over a year since we launched Paisley and Poppies to celebrate afterlife communication, twin soul and soul family connections with Robin.

It has been a blessing and a joy to write and share stories that I hope you have enjoyed and benefited from.

I have another story of synchronicity and Robin’s presence with me to share with you.

On April 9th, I went to the doctor for my initial consultation regarding my upcoming colonoscopy. I briefly mentioned I would be doing this in this post.

I’m sharing this information with you here because I feel I have an important spiritual responsibility to bring awareness to colorectal care given what Robin went through. I would like to use this website as a tool for good purposes and to disseminate life-saving messages where I can.

This site is first and foremost about afterlife communication with Robin, and part of that is dealing with these human health issues that affect us all.  I know he would want me to write about this.

I spoke with Robin about my appointment beforehand. I also prayed to God for love and support to be sent to me to help me get through this experience. I found it anxiety-provoking to go for a different type of cancer screening after already going through breast cancer. Maybe some of you can relate. But, it has to be done and I promised myself, my husband and Robin that I would go. I asked Robin for his support and love and to be with me to whatever extent possible.

Thumbs Up!

After my appointment, my husband Julian and I went for a walk. While walking down the sidewalk, past shops and restaurants, I saw a man wearing a t-shirt that had the words, “Thumbs Up” on it.

I distinctly felt Robin’s presence with me. As you may know, one of Robin’s mannerisms was giving the “thumbs up” sign, while in the public eye, on a regular basis. I felt like that was my sign that he was with me, giving me the “thumbs up” for going to my appointment.

We continued walking until we reached a library and spent about a ½ hour there. While I was there, I bought a book from their little bookstore.

After this, we went to an Italian restaurant. I had a yummy spinach and ricotta calzone. It was a treat and a break from my usual diet of organic salads, vegetable stews with turmeric, sardines and sprouted grains.

After we returned home, I still had the “thumbs up” t-shirt on my mind. So, I googled, Robin Gibb thumbs up. If you click on the link, you will see lots of evidence that Robin very often made this gesture.

I read this nice story (see Singapore, August 23, 2005) where a fan mentioned Robin’s “thumb up” sign during his Asian tour.

If you’re in love with Robin, you can find plenty of cute pictures of him over the years giving the thumbs up sign on Pinterest, lol!

The Rainbows

Then I found this heart-touching Daily Mail article by David Wigg (July 4, 2013) where Barry Gibb is quoted as saying (the emphasis in bold is mine):

‘The last time when I came over to see him, just before he died, he was unable to speak to me because he had an oxygen mask and was drifting in and out of consciousness. But I always got the familiar thumbs-up from him.’

I had never read this article before and I learned some painful details about the Bee Gees’ past that I didn’t know. For the rest of my life, I’ll always be learning something new about them it seems.

I continued to read the next paragraph and noticed this interesting and synchronistic commentary (emphasis mine):

During one visit, while Robin was in a coma, Barry sang a song that he had written for him called The End Of The Rainbow.

Why is this quote synchronistic? As I mentioned previously, I went to the library after my doctor’s appointment and purchased a book. The book that I bought is called, The Rainbow, by D.H. Lawrence.

I’m not that familiar with D.H. Lawrence’s work, but I liked the title. I flipped through a few pages before I bought it. It seemed like a romance novel and had beautiful imagery, so I bought it for 27 cents!

It was the first book by D.H. Lawrence that I have ever purchased. I was meant to buy this book on that day.

The purchase of this book synchronized with the title of Barry’s song mentioned in this article, which I connected with as a result of researching Robin’s “thumbs up.”

This caused me to feel strongly connected to Robin. I feel his presence was with me throughout my meanderings that day. It eased the tension of facing my colonoscopy appointment. That is one of the main benefits of afterlife communication: it comforts us and reminds us that spiritually, we are not alone. Unseen loved ones are with us. They make their presence known and “visible” through these communications.

I also love how these events were connected. One thing led to another, in terms of reminders of Robin and synchronistic occurrences. The “rainbow synchronicity” actually reinforced for me that my sighting of the “thumbs up” t-shirt was a very strong sign of Robin’s presence with me.

If I hadn’t seen the t-shirt, I may not have received the rainbow synchronicity later that evening because I would not have been motivated to do any research on Robin’s thumbs up. I deeply love how these events are orchestrated, right down to the choice of buying my book.

This is how loved ones in spirit bring beauty into our lives. Events such as these can occur between you and your loved one in spirit who has your best interests at heart.

Share from the Heart

Speaking of heart, I would like to close this post with words from The Book of Theanna: In the Lands that Follow Death by Ellias and Theanna Lonsdale. The twin soul authors bring to the forefront a point I would like to make:

What we seek in the beyond-the-body state is to share on heart levels.

This is what the synchronicities and communications between Robin and me are showing: a desire to share on heart levels. His spirit showed up in my life on a most anxious day to reassure me and get my mind off of my problems. I feel the synchronicities are from the beautiful heart of Robin, in the form of a “thumbs up” t-shirt, a book and a song with “rainbow” in the title.

Sharing at heart levels is spirit communication at its best. It’s what I’ve grown accustomed to with Robin. He loves to use things going on in my life that are a clear reference to who he was as a person and one that I could not possibly overlook. I share at heart levels with him by including him in my life and being truthful about what is in my heart, whether I’m happy or downcast.

Through my blog posts, I have been sharing on heart levels with you, my readers. I don’t want to wait until I’m in my beyond-the-body state to do that. We can do this now. It matters just as much now as it does after we pass.

During the past year, I’ve also done my best to show you the loving heart of Robin Gibb that lives on in spirit. It is my great wish that I have been successful.

I hope you will come back and visit again soon. Thank you for reading!

Twin Soul Magnetism

Twin Soul Magnetism

For this post, I have decided to write about twin soul magnetism. This is a result of being inspired by the article I cited in my previous blog post, St. Uriel.  Practicing meditation with the spirit of saints as a means of improving our own magnetism was discussed in the article.

Some Literature on Magnetism

What is magnetism? According to Ananda, it is the magnetic energy field and vibration around us that protects us and attracts positive or negative experiences. Our own vibration is improved by connecting with the loving and wise spiritual energies of saints or other venerated spiritual beings.

During my journey of sharing a twin soul connection with Robin, I have discovered that there is a certain magnetism that draws us together and keeps us together. This is true even though we are “sort of” in different planes of existence.

I say “sort of” because what I have learned from Robin is that the physical world is part of the unseen spiritual world and the unseen spiritual world is part of the physical world. They really are not separate. If they were, spirits and people in physical bodies would not be able to interact with each other and there would be no such thing as afterlife communication.

I wholeheartedly agree with the words of Richard Ferguson written in his book, The Divine Resting on My Shoulder: The Story of How Divine, Mystical Experiences Brought Me Closer to God, (November 18, 2014):

“I have begun to see that there is a continuum of existence between the physical world and the unseen spiritual world. Both these worlds or realms are tightly intertwined in a way that almost everybody in this world is not aware of…” (pg. 152)

When it comes to twin soul magnetism, there is quite a bit of information on the internet. Here, I will only cite a few websites. The excerpt below summarizes what I feel in connection with Robin and our bond in terms of magnetism. This is something I can very much relate to. Here is the link to the website:

The bond works like a magnet which glues the two. It is probably the only link remained from the initial, original connection when they were One soul before the split (not created on this Earth but rather re-created). The bond keeps the two together even on a great distance and probably also when one of them dies (which is described as the most painful experience ever for the one who stayed alive).

There most certainly is a bond and one that has left me feeling like Robin is often beside me. This helps alleviate some of the pain of never having met. Sometimes it’s like being followed. According to the Michael Teachings on essence twins (which are the same as twin souls/flames):

The influence of our essence twin… is strongest when we are bonded directly to his discarnate essence.

After all that has occurred over the years, I would put myself in the category of being bonded directly to Robin’s discarnate essence. It is very powerful. His being discarnate made our connection all the more magnetic and knowable. Before his death, I had zero consciousness of our spiritual connection but finally began to wake up in April, 2012.

I really want to make the point that people can be very powerful, active and available after they die physically. I do not like the current prevailing views of our deceased loved ones as “gone,” “resting eternally,” or that they can no longer do anything. It’s simply not true.

Here is a very good article on working with a discarnate essence twin through meditation.

It elucidates the points I was making above. Because of the magnetic connection, the discarnate twin is much more available to the incarnate twin after physical death, especially when the two did not know each other. The mechanism by which a discarnate twin comes to find and recognize an incarnate twin is not clear to me, but it may have to do with their intuition and psychic abilities as spirits, which was mentioned in my St. Uriel post.

It probably helps if the incarnate twin acknowledges, accepts and recognizes the discarnate twin and contacts them, like I did with Robin. It was the magnetism I experienced upon seeing him in videos in 2012 that got the ball rolling. It was a very compelling, albeit perplexing, force that caused me to reach out to him through verbal conversation. It was highly unusual for me and not something I had ever done before with any other deceased person. It was definitely not something I would normally do. But when you meet your twin soul, you can kiss “normal” goodbye, especially if they are discarnate.

In the early days after Robin died, I often felt his energy around me. The air around me felt like the air feels after a strong electrical storm. If anyone reading this has ever experienced something similar, you will know what I mean. The air felt supercharged and I felt supercharged. All of my senses were heightened and I felt like something was pulling me towards his spirit.

I share this as an example of how twin soul magnetism could feel. It is so therapeutic to write this, I can’t even tell you! I really hope what I share is helping someone.

I would also like to share with you this interesting pdf called The Meaning of Entangled. This article offers an interesting and unique discussion of sacred geometry, quantum entanglement, and electromagnetic energy as it pertains to soul-based relationships. I hope you will check it out when you have a chance. The diagrams are very interesting.

Personal Story of Magnetism with Robin

Very soon after Robin passed away, I was shocked at how often my life would synchronize with him in some way. This was before I knew anything about twin souls/flames and afterlife communication.

For example, my husband would say something that matched what I just read about him. What he said wasn’t about Robin. It was about some other topic. Still, it would weirdly match.

Or, I would say something to Robin and then pick up a book and a response to what I just said to him would be on the pages in front of me. It was incredibly mind-bending and caused me to ask for direct guidance as to what all this meant. I described this in my background section.

Over the years, I continued to be a magnet for events concerning Robin. During the summer of 2017, I experienced a fun and amazing magnetic connection.

My husband and I were house hunting at the time. We were exploring the amenities of a property and came across their library and computer room open to residents. I spent some time exploring the books. I found one called The Traveling Tea Shop by Belinda Jones. I was drawn to it because I love tea. I needed something relaxing to read to take a break from the stress of house hunting, so I picked up the book and opened it.

I randomly opened to page 153, Chapter 24. I saw these exact words:

Welcome to Massachusetts.

Well, that was nice because I’m from there. Then I read a few more sentences and received another nice little surprise: a mention of the Bee Gees! Here is the text:

“Massachusetts.” As I hear Charles say the state name out loud, I can’t help but think of the Bee Gees. (pg. 153)

To say I was happily surprised is an understatement given I had just randomly opened to this page and was gifted with Robin’s presence with me through these words. After this, I turned to the back cover where I discovered the book is about the evolution of familial, romantic and business relationships during a tour of New England tea houses and bakeries.

It figures I picked up a book about New England without even knowing it! It’s fun reading about Boston Cream donuts from Dunkin’ Donuts (Chapter 31, Pgs. 197-198) since I’m not supposed to eat those, lol! Well if I can’t eat them, at least I can look at the pictures, like the one at the beginning of this post.

Anyway, I was left wondering about this mysterious magnetic force which caused me to open to this exact page about the Bee Gees and Massachusetts. I think this is the way that God lets you know, in no uncertain terms, that you have a connection with a particular person or spirit. Spirit will let you know and keep letting you know for years and they won’t let you forget! Your twin, or something to do with them, will keep appearing in your life in the most unexpected ways, even if they are no longer physical.

This communication occurred a little over 5 years after Robin’s passing and the connection we shared was still incredibly strong. So, don’t worry if your twin or loved one passed away years ago. You can still be strongly connected and time is not an issue for them on the other side.

So, after all of this, I’m sure you can see why I say I am a magnet for things to do with Robin. Twin souls, soul mates, close friends and spiritual family members would naturally be magnets for each other.

Story: Cute, Clever and Creative

I have another fun story demonstrating our twin soul magnetism that involves my husband.

Back in 2013, I had written to someone about my paranormal experiences with Robin and described what he did as “cute, clever, and creative.”

Not too long after that, I was sitting in our living room watching television while my husband was sitting at another table nearby working on a project on his computer. He made the comment that something was “cute and creative.” That really got my attention and I thought to myself, “He missed clever,” because I was thinking about what I had recently written about Robin.

As soon as I thought the word “clever,” a person on the television show I was watching filled in the blank and said the word “clever!” I got the chills! There it was again, those same 3 words with a little help from a t.v. program. I don’t remember what the show was now, but Spirit can use anything to get a message to us.

I had the strong feeling that Robin’s spirit was around Julian at that time and was playing with me. I don’t know how God and spirits get these events to align the way they do. I just open to it and express my gratitude and appreciation for it. It makes life so much nicer and more interesting. My life since Robin’s passing has been beautiful and amazing at times over the years because of these communications. I honestly feel elated after receiving these messages and they give me a natural spiritual high that no earthly substance could ever give.

I feel magnetized to Robin through these experiences. It is a clear example of how like attracts like between twin souls who carry the same energy. I started having these experiences with him in 2012 out of the blue and I kept having more and more. The magnetic energy between us gains its own momentum and keeps creating more parallel, mirroring experiences. It’s like playing spiritual ping-pong.

If I speak or write about Robin, I know that there is a very high probability that some of the content will come back to me like a boomerang. It’s fun, mesmerizing and all based in eternal love and kindness towards each other. This ball has been rolling for almost 7 years with inexhaustible spiritual energy and strength…

Note: As I finished typing the above sentence with the word “inexhaustible,” my husband, in his office down the hall from mine said, “That’s pretty damn exhaustive,” regarding something he was working on. These two words have different meanings, but obviously have “exhaust” in common.

Given the timing, it is close enough for me to see it as an incoming boomerang! What I just wrote about happened right before my eyes.

It’s another example of the ping-pong game I play with Robin, with Julian often playing a primary role in our communications. I wrote about how my husband is a messenger for Robin in this post. This has been happening spontaneously since 2012, before I knew about twin soul connections. Julian had no idea this was going on until I told him about it.

Sometimes it happens while I’m writing, like this. These are the messages that say, “I’m right there with you.”

Julian’s right. This is pretty exhaustive and I think you get the point!  And with that, I bid you adieu! I hope you enjoyed this and thanks for reading. Enjoy your donuts for me!

Love,

Christina

St. Uriel

St. Uriel

On a daily basis, I invite Robin’s spirit to be a part of my life. How I do this varies. Some days, I will recite a mantra.

Other days, I will read a guided meditation to him or say a Christian prayer. I regularly bring him a cup of tea. Sometimes, I sit at his altar and play some of his music, like the beautiful Bee Gees song Wedding Day. Is anybody reading this getting married soon? This might be a great song for you!

Attunement with Saints

On March 23rd, I decided to invite him into my day by reading this article called Celebrating Our Inner Attunement with a Great Soul (December 27, 2016) by Tyagi Jayadev.

This blog post is from Ananda, a yogic spiritual organization based on the teachings of Paramahansa Yogananda and founded by his direct disciple Swami Kriyananda.

I printed this article quite a while ago, but was guided back to it on this day because of its teachings on inner closeness and attunement with a saint. When I read this article and put its suggestions into practice, I feel I am fine-tuning my spirit communication skills.

So, I read some parts of this article out loud to Robin. Just as the prayers were adapted to include a saint, I adapted them to include Robin too (see #1 Prayer to the Saint in the article). I offered this invitation:

“Beloved Robin, I will enjoy your spirit, your music and your interviews. I will feel you in my heart. I will think you in my thoughts. I am open to any wisdom you have to share with me.”

As it was written, I think this is a beautiful prayer to adapt to a saint, your Lord, God, or any loved one in spirit that is of Love and in a good place spiritually. It helps to develop inner closeness and warmth with your loved one. I would only want to invite this with a spiritual being that I love and trust and who loves me. This quote below is very important to keep in mind:

“One can develop cosmic magnetism by thinking of God and saintly people. By concentrating deeply upon a certain personality, one can attract that personality. That is why one should think only of great individuals.”

This message above from Paramahansa Yogananda mirrors the message from Mr. William Stead that I wrote about in my post, The Blue Island. The bold is mine:

“Anyone who sits for a moment and allows his mind to dwell on some dear one who has “died” will actually draw the spirit of that person to himself. He may be conscious or unconscious of the presence, but the presence is there.  If people on earth realized the result of their thoughts upon those to whom they refer, they would be very much more careful in giving their mind free play.”

Over the years, Robin has shown himself to be a kind and loving spirit in his actions towards me. This is why I trust him enough to engage in practices such as this. I have learned so much from him as evidenced by what I have written throughout this website. He is a dear and trustworthy spiritual guide. My spiritual life and learning really opened up after he “died.” I have been in soul school with him for almost 7 years. That’s what it is to me.

I also like section 3 of this article, Meditating with the Saint. It really is a form of afterlife communication. The author encourages us to feel our saint very near, alive and present.

This reminded me of another excerpt I recently read, written by Laura Patsouris. She is the author of a book called Weaving Memory: A Guide to Honoring the Ancestors.

In her book, she writes about welcoming your ancestors into your home and inviting them to weave themselves into the fabric of your everyday life. In this way, our loved ones are free to make their presence known and do indeed feel very close, spiritually alive and available.

Here is the excerpt.

Whether it is an ancestor, a saint, your twin soul, God, Buddha, Jesus, or a beloved grandparent, we can invite any of these loved ones in spirit to weave their energy, guidance and presence into our daily lives. It is a beautiful spiritual practice. Eventually, we are going to be where they are. So, we may as well create these loving bonds and keep them strong now while we are embodied. When the time for our passing comes, we will be glad we did.

Afterlife CommunicationsSo on this day, I invited Robin and the rest of my spiritual support system into my life and daily activities to communicate any messages however they wished. My job is to keep my heart open to the communications, but I surrender the how to them. They know much better than me what is best each day.

I focused on this article on communion and attunement with saints until I felt ready to get on with the rest of my day.

 

St. Uriel

Later in the day, I was out driving with my husband. To my surprise, in front of us, was a car with a license plate that read ST URIEL. On the back windshield it said, Angels Help Us. I was very moved and struck by this as I had just spent the morning meditating with Robin on attuning with saints! It was a beautiful moment and very rare to see such a license plate. I see that as my communication back from Robin acknowledging the time I spent with him in meditation and reading that morning.

In the article, the word “saint” is mentioned 25 times, so as I entered into my day, I was infused with this energy! It was such a blessing to see this license plate.

Since I was given this license plate communication, I felt it important to research and study St. Uriel in more depth. I think Spirit was telling me that he is a good saint for me to connect and work with. There is lots of information online about him. Briefly, he is said to be the angel that warned Noah of the impending flood. He is also said to help cleanse toxic emotions. Here are some resources on St./Archangel Uriel for your edification:

My history with Paramahansa Yogananda

I first became acquainted with the teachings of Paramahansa Yogananda during my yoga teacher training back in 2008. I read his book Autobiography of a Yogi for an important assignment. I felt connected to him and transformed by his teachings. I went on to study the Self-Realization Fellowship lessons and occasionally attended services at a center.

Chapter 43, The Resurrection of Sri Yukteswar is one of my favorite chapters of his book. If you are interested in reading it, it is available to you for free at the link I provided above.

At the time I read it in 2008, I didn’t know it, but it was preparing me for my relationship and communications with Robin. This chapter is about Paramahansa Yogananda’s afterlife communication with his deceased guru Sri Yukteswar. He goes into detail about the astral world and astral beings.

I found this teaching below particularly relevant and important and I placed in bold the statements very salient to me. I think this provides a clue as to how Robin was able to recognize me, his twin from his soul family that he never met:

“The earth-liberated astral being meets a multitude of relatives, fathers, mothers, wives, husbands, and friends, acquired during different incarnations on earth, as they appear from time to time in various parts of the astral realms. He is therefore at a loss to understand whom to love especially; he learns in this way to give a divine and equal love to all, as children and individualized expressions of God. Though the outward appearance of loved ones may have changed, more or less according to the development of new qualities in the latest life of any particular soul, the astral being employs his unerring intuition to recognize all those once dear to him in other planes of existence, and to welcome them to their new astral home.” (Pg. 483-484)

I am a firm believer that once we leave our physical bodies and this plane of existence, we are able to find, discern and read the energy patterns of those we once knew and loved. But, I don’t think we necessarily have to wait until physical death to be able to discern and intuit those with whom we share a deep spiritual connection.

Afterlife CommunicationsThrough my own heart and soul intuition, I was able to identify Robin, like a needle in a haystack, as one of my own from my soul family. We all possess and can develop this type of intuition. The key after that is to trust it and to see if God and our loved one respond with validation. If it is a true spiritual connection based on love and caring for the spirit of another, you will receive an answer.

Sharing Your Life

Sharing Your Life

It is very possible to share your life in the physical world with your twin soul and/or loved ones in spirit. It is a beautiful thing to invite loved ones in spirit to partake in daily experiences and to see how they respond.

Whether it’s a good meal, a beautiful sunset, the sound of birds chirping, an amazing trip to another country, or a starry night, it can be so fulfilling to directly share and “send” to your loved one what you are experiencing.

How do you send it? You can think of them and speak to them in your heart or out loud if you’re alone and tell them what you are experiencing. The other day, I was riding my bike alone and saw the most beautiful pink-orange sunset. I spoke with Robin out loud while I was riding and shared with him that the sunset was so beautiful and that I thought he would love it. I was consciously and intentionally sharing the sunset with him from my heart and sending it to him so he could be a part of it. I have a lot of faith in this because I know we are spiritually and telepathically connected.

From the Heart

When I was first learning how to communicate with Robin in 2012, I came across this beautiful article called Language of the Heart by a woman named Cordula.

It was from her that I learned I could invite and communicate with Robin this way. Her writings are unique gems in the vast sea of literature on afterlife communication.

She wrote specifically about communicating with deceased loved ones from the heart. She based her suggestions on Rudolph Steiner’s work.

Cordula wrote about inviting deceased loved ones into any experiences that are soul-stirring or inspiring, such as those connected to art or nature.

On March 7th, I read Cordula’s writings again. I had not read them in quite a while, but I refer back to them when I feel guided to do so. I had printed the articles I mentioned above and kept them all these years, but at the time in 2012, I forgot to include the website link that I got her articles from.

So, I went on a research expedition trying to find her website again. It wasn’t easy, but after finding just the right word combination, I found it. But I found more than that.

It turns out Cordula Feuerstack passed away on February 2, 2014. Her photo is at the bottom of this page.

When I saw her obituary, I was so surprised to see that her birthday was March 6, 1969. Her birthday anniversary was just the day before I was guided to research her after all these years! Before March 7th, I had never researched her background in any greater depth than what was on her About page. But I felt so moved and connected to Cordula’s spirit when I realized that I was drawn back to her around her birthday without realizing it at the time. This is the beautiful way spirit works!

I learned so much from Cordula and she helped me greatly in my early days of communicating with Robin. I am so grateful Cordula and send you love. Thank you!

Sharing Movies

After being refreshed and inspired by Cordula’s and Steiners writings, I decided to invite Robin’s spirit to enjoy a movie with me on the evening of March 12th.

I recently bought a DVD called Cairo Time because the previews looked interesting and beautiful.

Here is a description of the plot.

My husband Julian was busy, so I decided to take my small portable DVD player and plug it in near Robin’s altar. I relaxed on the floor beside his altar with a pillow and spoke with Robin out loud. I said, “If you want to watch this movie with me, you are welcome to.” Then I said, “It would be great to get a synchronicity from this, if that could be arranged!” I laughed and smiled with him, half joking and half serious.

afterlife communicationsWell, it turns out, I did get a synchronicity. In the movie, Tareq and Juliet were walking together on a paved tree-lined road in Cairo, Egypt.

Tareq said to Juliet, “You know these trees they have a privilege to live along side their ancestors. Some of them are 500 years old.”

As soon as I heard that, I thought back to my post on Twin Trees. I mentioned the trees at the Audubon sanctuary as being 500 years old. Here is my text:

On January 6, 2019, I went on a trip to a beautiful Audubon nature sanctuary with my husband.

It is an ancient forest teeming with life. Some of the trees there are 500 years old. We saw otters swimming, an Ibis family, little blue herons, raccoons and beautiful trees that I wanted to hug!

I was so amazed and happy to share this movie with Robin for the first time and hear something that so clearly matched what I had recently written about for him. It stood out to me as being very special. In January, I had just learned about these 500 year old trees in Florida. It was so nice to hear about them again in the context of this movie I was inspired to share with Robin. It was like we were revisiting the same topic again together. The 500 year old trees came back to me while I was with Robin at his altar. That was awesome!

I found this 2004 video of Robin a few months ago. I loved hearing him speak about how he felt trees are important. Click here to see the video. Beginning at 3:00 into the video, listen for a few more moments and you will hear Robin’s comment about trees. I thought it appropriate to share this here.

When you share your life with your twin, soul mate or loved ones in spirit, it could lead you into an even more beautiful experience with something that connects back to them. I would suggest following your intuition and guidance and see where it leads you. It’s possible I was being given a nudge to watch this movie to give me the gift of this synchronicity with the 500 year old trees. God, Jesus, Robin, my guardian angels and spirit guides knew this would be important to me.

Loved ones in spirit know what will be important to you too. They know what will stand out to you and get your attention. The mention of 500 year old trees will always get my attention after writing my blog post. I knew Robin’s spirit was with me.

Afterlife communication with Robin is beautiful and fulfilling because of these experiences. If you have a close bond of love with someone in spirit, you may enjoy sharing more aspects of your life with them. As mentioned above, Cordula had great ideas that can guide you. Even though she left the earth plane in 2014, her works are still online for people to benefit from.

I wish you great blessings and the warmth and love of shared lives across the veil.

Love,

Christina
