Eight Years in Spirit: Sacred Moments with Telekinesis

Eight Years in Spirit: Sacred Moments with Telekinesis

May 20, 2020 marks the eighth year since Robin passed away. His passing date anniversary is always a time of great personal reflection for me.

Even with all of the afterlife communication I have shared with him over the years, some of which I have passed along to you, I still have so many questions for him. If I could have a face-to-face talk with him I would ask:

  •  How have you changed and grown as a spirit since 2012, Robin?
  • What are the most important things you have learned?
  • Do you miss being in a physical body? What is it like being without a physical body?
  • Are you still singing in spirit, writing songs and perhaps sending them to someone here on earth?
  • Does the plane of existence you reside in have a name and/or number? What is it called?
  • What do your surroundings look like?
  • What are the colors of your energy light body?
  • Who do you live with?
  • What are the members of our soul family like and how many are there?
  • What past lives have we shared?
  • How did you learn how to enter into my dreams and move objects?
  • How did you find me in Colorado in 2012?
  • Since we are so good at synchronizing, how does synchronicity really work from your perspective as a person in spirit? What is the mechanism behind it?

Right now, I don’t have the answers to these questions from Robin’s perspective. I hope by posing them here, that maybe he can get through to me somehow to share some information. This also expresses my openness and readiness to receive answers to these questions. I wonder what things are like for him eight years after leaving his physical vehicle behind. Have you heard from Robin? Maybe you know some of these things I don’t! 🙂

Sacred Moments

In the midst of this pandemic, I do have some happy afterlife communication news to share with you! I received a clear sign of Robin’s presence with me earlier this month. Here is my story.

During the early morning hours on May 4, 2020, just after midnight, I couldn’t sleep. So, I decided to sit by Robin’s altar to have a chat, pray and think about some things that were on my mind.

Like you, this pandemic has affected me on many levels and I’ve had to rearrange my life in very significant ways. This is why I took some time off from writing during the month of April. As much as I love writing here, I didn’t have the mental energy to concentrate.

It’s not easy just surviving breast cancer and now having to deal with this pandemic on top of it. It’s potentially much more challenging for people who are going through cancer treatment right now. I have asthma too, so I have to be more careful as that puts me in a higher risk category regarding this virus.

As I spoke with Robin, I shared my concerns about the different things going on in my life, the world and the personal things that were bothering me. I spoke from my heart, saying what I truly felt about things and events.

I learned a long time ago that loved ones in spirit like to communicate from the heart. This quote from The Book of Theanna: In the Lands that Follow Death, Updated Edition by Ellias & Theanna Lonsdale elucidates this point:

Over here, the dead seek each other out authentically and fully. After initial isolation for many, the savoring of company is universal. What we seek in the beyond-the-body state is to share on heart levels. (1)

I’ve had this book for many years and early on, it informed how I approached communication with Robin and my other loved ones in spirit. It’s also a good book if you are interested in twin souls because they have a very interesting story.

Speaking from the heart is essential. It does not mean that the conversation will always be sunshine and flowers, but at least I am authentic. There is no point in trying to b.s. someone in spirit anyway. Someone in spirit who loves you will be able to tell if you are not being honest about how you feel!

So, while I was talking with him, the candle I had lit on his altar went out. I took the empty tin out of the candle holder and put a new white, unscented, tealight candle in. I pulled the wick up, but I didn’t light it at that time because it was late.

I have lit candles for Robin, Jesus, ancestors, and spiritual guides for many years. This is to honor their memory and presence in my life. It’s my way of sending them a loving message and letting them know that they are still alive to me and that I love them. I actively remember and think about them. Here is a wonderful article on the meaning of lighting memorial candles in various cultures and religions for loved ones who have died.

I continued to talk with Robin a little while longer after I replaced the candle. After I finished getting things off my chest, I was able to go to bed and get some sleep. I had a good night’s sleep after that.

After I woke up later that morning (still May 4th) and finished washing up, I went back into the room where I keep Robin’s altar. I noticed that the candle I had placed in the candle holder before I went to bed was moved outside of the candle holder! It was amazing! Here is a picture I took to remember Robin’s visit:

Robin's Candle Telekinesis May 4 2020

Robin’s Candle Telekinesis May 4 2020

As you can see, the candle is outside of the candle holder. I love him so much for continuing to visit me in ways that make his presence clear. I don’t know how he does it, but I consider this communication to be sacred.

Moving the candle was a loving response to my bearing my soul to him hours earlier. He was letting me know he heard me! Given the circumstances around this occurrence of telekinesis, I would definitely recommend opening your heart to speak to your loved ones in spirit in ways you are comfortable with. Afterlife communication is a two-way street. Speaking with loved ones in spirit in an honest, authentic manner invites a response. Be on the lookout!

After these sorts of events, I have a strong awareness not only of Robin’s presence, but God’s presence on whom I rely for love and strength.

Telekinesis from Robin has a divine quality. He has shown me that he can move objects since the spring of 2013. His movement of objects has always been quiet and subtle but done in a way that is still obvious and noticeable to me. His activity has never been the loud poltergeist activity that has been reported in other literature.

If you are new here, I invite you to see the post below on how he moved his picture on the altar I had for him in 2013.

He likes to visit his altar space and has done so many times over the years. On another occasion, he moved a starfish I had placed on his altar, to the floor. I have included this post for you here as well. The starfish telekinesis post is the most popular post on this website!

Afterlife Telekinesis with a Picture Turned Upside Down

Spiritual Significance of Starfish

When I saw the candle outside the candle holder, I was surprised because in the grand scheme of things in terms of afterlife communication with Robin, it is a relatively rare occurrence. I hold this moment of telekinesis with reverence. It’s so nice to have his spirit around me. It gives me such a boost spiritually and psychologically, which I think is ultimately the intention and point of loving afterlife communication with those who have your best interest at heart. I hope that you can get a boost vicariously as well!

Preserving the Memory of Telekinesis

After Robin moves an object, in addition to taking a photo, I always mark it in some way so I can hold on to the memory of what he has touched. There is something incredibly special about having physical objects that he has actually moved with his energy. In this case, I put a floral sticker on the bottom of the candle, coaster and the glass candle holder in which the telekinesis occurred.

I will keep the candle he moved and not burn it. I think it is extremely important to honor our loved ones who communicate in this way by keeping the items and seeing the activity as sacred. It is an act of love to reach out from beyond the veil and to come into the density and negativity of the third dimension. So, I don’t take it lightly when Robin engages in telekinesis. He had to focus his energy enough to be able to move the candle. That is something that must be honored with the deepest respect, gratitude and appreciation.

Deceased loved ones may like to increase their activity around the time of an anniversary date, such as birthdays, weddings, and passing dates. According to Carole J. Obley, in the article, Spirit Speaks: Receiving After-Death Communication:

Some spirits will place or move objects in loved ones’ homes to grab their attention. Others give messages about the appearance of specific birds or animals in relatives’ yards. The timing of these communications sometimes coincides with events like birthdays or anniversaries of the recipients or the spirits. I know of one family that receives validation from their son through various means on the date of his passing every year. (2)

It is definitely true that Robin communicates strongly during the time period around his anniversary dates. So, since his eighth year anniversary is upon us, I believe the May 4th activity is part of his anniversary communication message. He is still around! I hope many people around the world who love Robin are experiencing signs of his presence as well!

A Note to Robin on Your 8th Anniversary in Spirit

Dear Beloved Robin,

Thank you so much for the sacred gift of your candle telekinesis and your presence in my life. I pray that you are surrounded by God’s love, that your energy is strong and that you are experiencing creativity in ways we could never imagine. I love you, as so many on earth do, and you will always be remembered and cared for. 

Your smile and your music are carried in our hearts.

Love,

Christina

Conclusion

There are numerous emotional, psychological and spiritual benefits that come with active, loving soul communication with deceased loved ones. It was my intention to highlight this truth in this post.

The reality is that people are passing over into spirit life at every moment, due to one thing or another.

Given the current pandemic, I suspect that as people grieve and enter into the healing process of coping with the pain and loss of loved ones, some are going to be initiated into the art of afterlife communication.

For some, it may come quite quickly depending on their level of openness and natural abilities. I would not be surprised to hear of stories in the upcoming months about dream visits, synchronicity or telekinesis carried out by loved ones who died during this pandemic.

With this in mind, and in honor of the anniversary of Robin’s passing, I would like to close with this quote by Rumi:

 “Love and lover live in eternity. Other desires are substitutes For that way of being. How long do you lay embracing a corpse? Love rather the soul, which cannot be held.” (3)

I think this quote speaks for itself.

To all of my readers, I pray that you and your family members are well. This is a rough time all over the world in terms of health, safety and the economy.  May you be blessed with love, excellent health, prosperity and kindness in the midst of these global challenges!

May you experience a silver lining in this situation.

(Note: On May 13th, I typed the sentence above about “a silver lining.” Synchronistically, on May 14th, as I was finishing up this post, I received an email newsletter about Eben Alexander, M.D.’s Commencement 2020 address. He expressed the same sentiments about silver linings during this pandemic. So, I linked to the address above. Just click on “silver lining” to see it!)

Thank you for reading!

Afterlife Communication: Electric 3

Afterlife Communication: Electric 3

Introduction

Thank you for visiting me here today!

I send you soft, gentle, kind, loving energies as we go through this global reset and restructuring together.

“Deep peace, a soft white dove to you.” In 2012, I said these words to Robin’s spirit. I apply them to our current situation. They come from a beautiful poem by William Sharp that you can read here. I hope you find the words soothing to your spirit.

Paisley and Poppies is meant to be a respite and a beautiful, peaceful, healing environment for you.

I would like to continue sharing stories about afterlife communication with Robin during this time. So, if you are in Quarantine City or Shutdown Town, perhaps you would like to take a break here and enjoy a story or two! It’s a nice way to connect with Robin’s loving and sweet spirit which is not in the least bit affected by any virus.

May these posts serve as a reminder that our loved ones in spirit are still with us in various manifestations. We are not alone here. We can connect with them for love and comfort.

I pray that you and your loved ones are well and finding good ways to cope. Writing here is one of my ways of coping and serving others, which I hope you will enjoy.

You get enough news of world events from other sources. Here, my primary focus is Robin and afterlife communication. Afterlife goes on! 🙂

The Power of the Number 3 in Robin’s Life

During the afternoon of January 30, 2020, I checked my email for the first time that day. This was while I was in the process of writing a previous post, Unknown Soul Connections.

I had a lot of emails in my junk folder, so I decided to look through them to make sure nothing important slipped through.

I noticed one that struck a synchronistic cord. It was about the spiritual meaning of the number 3.

The email title is, “Power and Magic of the Number Three.”

This immediately reminded me of Robin because his life path numbers, based on his birth date of December 22, 1949, are 30/3. I wrote about this previously in this post on life parallels. Also, his life path numbers tie into him being a member of a trio.

Life Parallels

Here is a brief description of the life path numbers 30/3 from the book, The Life You Were Born to Live by Dan Millman:

Those on the 30/3 life path are here to work through issues of expression and sensitivity, overcoming self doubt to express themselves and use their inner gifts to encourage, uplift, and inspire others. (1)

There is an in-depth discussion of the 30/3 life path, as well as many others here.

Over a year ago, I decided to investigate the numerology of Robin’s passing date as well. It turns out that he was on the “3” path with this date too. He had (or has) a very strong connection with the number 3. Below, I calculated his numbers so you can see:

20 May 2012

2+0+0+5+2+0+1+2 = 12

1+2 = 3

Life Path Numbers for Robin’s passing date are 12/3

I thought this was quite fascinating when I discovered this.

Here is a brief description of the 12/3 life path, again from The Life You Were Born to Live:

Those on the 21/3 or 12/3 life path are here to work through issues of creativity, emotional expression, balance, and cooperation in support of people or causes, applying their energy in positive, constructive ways to teach, uplift, and inspire. (2)

You can read more about the 12/3 life path here.

I can definately say that over the years, Robin has continued to share his spiritual energy in ways that has taught and inspired me personally in amazing ways I never could have imagined. He has maintained his sensitivity and creative abilities, which I have shared with you in many posts, such as this one on his telekinesis with spiritual symbols.

Spiritual Symbols

I spent some time on both January 30th and 31st studying the spiritual meaning of the number 3 and the various features offered through the link above.

Druid spirituality, Rudolph Steiner and Sri Aurobindo (commonly referred to in the twin soul literature) are mentioned. I have written about and studied these authors and topics, so it was very nice to see them all in one place.

If you are interested in the twin soul phenomenon, I would highly recommend reading Sri Aurobindo’s works, which I have linked above. They are absolutely beautiful and the real deal!

Unexpected Electrical Activity

On Saturday, February 1, 2020, during the early morning hours, I could not sleep yet. So, I decided to go into my office to work on some final edits for a blog post.

I was thinking about a quote I really like and wanted to add it. I typed into google, “understand that your soul is not bound by third dimensional earthly existence.”

This is a very important message, especially in times like we are living in now. The key is to connect with your soul and experience moments of being unbound by what is going on here.

I looked at a few links on Pinterest. I noticed that the quote actually said “three-dimensional” not “third.” So, I started to retype the word “three” in google to see if I could get more accurate search results. I got as far as “th…”

Then all of a sudden, the overhead light in my office went haywire and started flashing in the most unusual way. It wasn’t a normal flicker that we see all the time, like during a thunderstorm. The room went dark as it flashed several times. The light went on and off like a wave. It really startled me. It lasted for a few moments. Then it stopped and the light stayed on as normal.

My husband had already gone to bed and the house was otherwise quiet. The weather outside was also calm…no rain, wind or thunderstorms.

Things like this used to happen more during the years closer to when Robin first passed away, around 2012-2014. For example, on one occasion, lights in my kitchen flashed like Morse code. Then it just stopped. After he died physically, a lot of spiritual activity started to happen in my life that never happened before.

It has been well-documented that people in spirit engage in electrical activity to communicate.

I wondered if Robin’s spirit was with me at that moment. I know that he is not the only spirit that watches over me. But I had a strong feeling it was his spirit around me.

I said out loud, “Thank you for the visit,” because I believe it is important to always show gratitude to the loved ones in spirit who go out of their way to communicate.

I thought, “Someone around me likes this quote.” It was a little freaky…and that’s saying a lot coming from me, lol! Wow…my heart was beating fast!Afterlife Communications Bulb

After this, I did a little more reading and then went to bed. I was still thinking about who in spirit was around me.

I told my husband about the light flashing later that morning. I expressed to him that I was puzzled about what was going on and why it was flashing. I shared with him that I was going to see if I got any more information about it.

Later that evening, as I was taking a bath and finally having some quiet time, it dawned on me what was going on. The light flashed at the exact same time I was typing the word “three.” I thought, “Oh, it was because of the ‘three’ I was typing…Robin’s numbers!”

I had been thinking about his life path numbers and ‘three’ a lot in the previous days. Because of this, I felt that it was his spirit around me, flashing the light.

You would think I would have made the connection right away, but I didn’t. I had not yet made this connection when I spoke with my husband about it that morning.

For one thing, I was very startled by the activity and I couldn’t think straight right after it happened. The other reason is that I was tired and it was late. So, it took me until the evening on February 1st, later that same day, for the light bulb in my mind to go off about what was going on!

This is the second time I can recall being in the process of typing something regarding Robin when the electrical activity went haywire in my home. I wrote about this previously, which you can see below if you are new to this blog.

Electrical Activity

As I was typing and working on a post for Robin, and focused on his “three,” his energy was there in a more obvious way. There is definitely a correlation there.

It’s moments like these that I really wish I had stronger clairvoyant abilities! I can’t see anyone around me.

I know in my heart that something spiritual was going on with this situation. There was something very different about the way the light “behaved” for lack of a better word.

After my bath, I spent some more time in my office contemplating the numerology of 3. I was still charged up by all this activity around it and my new understanding as to why it happened.

At that moment, my husband came in and said he found a show that was like the t.v. show Three’s Company in Mexico!

You should have seen my face! I was having trouble keeping up with all of this. He didn’t know anything about the number three being connected with the electrical activity because I hadn’t had a chance to tell him yet.

After that, I was even more convinced that the electrical activity had to do with Robin and the energy of 3 because there was so much synchronicity around this number.

Synchronicity Care Package

On Monday, March 16th, while I was in the process of writing this blog post, and after I had typed the sub-heading, The Power of 3, I checked my email. I received a newsletter from one of my favorite therapeutic breath work websites called Pushing Beauty by Michelle D’Avella. I invite you to check it out, especially if you are an empath or highly sensitive. You may find she has very helpful suggestions for you in terms of connecting with your breath for deep emotional healing.

As I read and scrolled through the newsletter, I was surprised when I saw this:

Song of the Week
Three Little Birds by Bob Marley

It made me smile, this synchrony of threes, which is a gift during these times. The number three keeps showing up over and over again in my life lately.

This is a good example of why afterlife communication is so valuable. You get little surprise treats and signs of your alignment and oneness with your loved one in spirit!

This is one of the major spiritual advantages of afterlife communication and having loving friends and family in the spirit world. I feel the happy energy coming in from the other side right now as I write.

I’m not a Bob Marley fan per se, but I do like some of his music. I listened to the song for the first time. It has a great message which is perfect for the times we are in. Hopefully, it will help you feel a little better.

It seems I was meant to share this with you, to give you a gift and uplift your spirit since I received this while I was writing. I think it’s ok if we see it as a message from Robin too. After all, he was one of three little songbirds who made our lives more beautiful. He has the name to match too!

I love it when God and Robin arrange synchronicity care packages in the form of music for us!

Thank you for reading! I invite you to come back and visit me again here soon. I’m looking forward to receiving more signs of Robin’s spirit with me that I can share with you during this challenging time.

Until then, take good care of yourself and your loved ones.

Recovery III: May All Be Healed

Recovery III: May All Be Healed

Introduction

In this post, I would like to share my experiences with breast cancer recovery, as well as my prayers for the well-being of all of humanity during this global health crisis. We are all affected by this in one way or another. And, in some way, we are all recovering from something in this moment that needs to be attended to. My heart goes out to those under quarantine or directly affected by the virus at this time.

If you would like to take a break from the news, please join me as I also share a couple of enjoyable stories of how Robin’s spirit has shown up during my recovery.

This is one of the spiritual advantages of afterlife communication: it is comforting and joyful to know that we can talk to our loved ones in spirit when we are experiencing a crisis. Their presence can bring love, wonder and joy into an otherwise daunting situation. It is my personal experience that loved ones in spirit do listen and know exactly what is going on with us.

There is a lot being said about negative contagions right now and rightfully so. But, since I like to be the counterbalance, I would like to mention that love and kindness can also be contagious in a good way. These spiritual qualities are some of the best antidotes for what is going around right now.

Be the Counterbalance

It is important to flip these negative circumstances into their positive correlates. There are happy, constructive contagions that we need to remember as well. Maybe it’s the Libra in me always trying to balance the scales!

So, with all that said, here is my update and stories. I hope you like them!

A Silver Lining

I like to share my experiences with breast cancer recovery here because I know that millions of women around the world are diagnosed every year.

That means millions more family and friends are affected by it. My husband and I belong to a world-wide community. Somebody reading this post may have breast cancer now, had it and recovering like me, or know someone who does. So, in that spirit of camaraderie, I would like to share my stories with you.

Having breast cancer is not necessarily a death sentence, especially if it is caught early.

February was my month for going to see my oncologist, breast surgeon and having my diagnostic mammogram. The one I had on February 10th showed no signs of cancer for which I am very grateful.

When you are in breast cancer recovery, it is recommended that you have mammograms every six months for two years after the initial diagnosis. I am still within that time frame and will have another in August, 2020. Then, after that, if everything continues to go well, I will go back to having mammograms once a year, like most women.

I have been very fortunate to have loving and kind doctors during this experience. My surgeon is always talking about the importance of joy. She spoke with me about having an attitude of joy, even before I was about to be wheeled into surgery in 2018!

Sure, easy for her to say! At that time, I was terrified, not knowing if the cancer had spread to my lymph nodes (which it didn’t). But, I was lucky to have her. I truly admire her and so grateful for her lighthearted attitude.

She taught me that even in the midst of a life-threatening illness, I could still think of something that brought me joy. Even just hearing the word made me feel better in that moment. So, if joy can help in coping with cancer, I believe it can be applied to coping with Covid-19. May we continue to find things that bring us joy. If we look for it and invite it, we will find it

Having these wonderful doctors is a silver lining for me in my recovery journey. I wish the same for you if you are recovering from cancer or any other illness.

Some Ups and Downs

As part of my recovery, I take medication to help prevent the cancer from coming back. In November, 2019, I was switched from Tamoxifen, which I had been on since October 2018, to the aromatase inhibitor, Femara.

After seven weeks, I started to have a very bad reaction to it. I jokingly say that my husband said I was like a catatonic zombie! Not fun. I couldn’t concentrate, I couldn’t write my blog posts here, I had no interest in the holidays, I was burning up and felt like I had the flu all of the time.

This is why I did not write very much during the holidays. It was all I could do to get Robin’s Selah post up for his birthday.

I recognized I wasn’t doing very well on this and said to my oncologist that I wanted to be taken off Femara and to go back on Tamoxifen. As a survivor, I feel it is important for me to be my own advocate since I have the ability to do so. So, that’s what I take now.

I know some women don’t like it. But I want to maximize my chances of preventing the estrogen-receptor positive cancer from coming back. At least with this medication, I feel like my normal self and can function.

When I first started taking Tamoxifen, I was scared about how it would affect me. Those fears were and are valid.

Then, I recalled how one of my favorite authors, Stephen Levine, wrote about how to take medication with more awareness and consciousness in his book, Healing Into Life and Death.

Please click here to see an excerpt from Chapter 14 called, Taking Your Medicine. I include this because it may help someone in a similar situation.

This really helped me to establish a connection with the medication I chose to take. I imagined that it was my protector. I also imagined that it had only positive effects in my body. It actually did help.

This approach did not work with Femara because the medication is just too strong for my energy system. But, the Stephen Levine approach did help me become aware of the problems it was causing me more quickly than perhaps I otherwise would have. It is very important to be conscious when taking any medication, and to be fully aware of how it is affecting you.

To each her own with this issue. Maybe someone reading this is taking Tamoxifen too and understands where I’m coming from. It’s not an easy decision to make.

All of these medications have side effects. That is the reality. There are pros and cons to taking the medication and to not taking it. But, my decision to take it was made with my husband as well. You don’t have to make major medical decisions all on your own if you don’t want to. Input from loving, supportive and understanding family members and friends can be very helpful. If you don’t have loving family members, I hope you have good doctors that can help you make the best decisions.

When it comes down to it, I want to spend whatever is left of my life making the most of it, not worrying about the cancer coming back. Remember Memento Mori, especially given everything that is going on in the world. Maximize your time here to the best of your ability.

How Robin’s Spirit Shows Up During my Recovery Journey

Any sign of Robin’s spirit with me brings me great joy. So, I have a couple of stories to share with you that reveal how his energy is with me in surprising ways, when I least expect it.

Part 1: Lumpectomies and Saturday Night Fever (Yes, really!)

Last November, I mentioned that I had a lump in my right calf, which turned out to be benign. Around that time, on November 15th, I had been doing lots of research on benign conditions of the leg, like cysts, while I was waiting for my leg biopsy results.

Actually, after the biopsy on November 12th, I could not feel the lump anymore, so I figured it was a cyst which collapsed as a result of taking the tissue sample.

Even though I was researching conditions of the leg, I saw a breast cancer story by Deborah Copaken Kogan, Executive Editor of Everyday Health come up in my search. Here it is. If you have had breast cancer, I’m sure you will be able to relate to her story. I can.

I read through her story. Then I came to the fun part, which to me was a sign of Robin’s presence with me in a most amazing and unexpected way.

Here is the quote:

“Wow,” said the next radiologist I saw. “There’s a giant party going on in your breasts.” I pictured the dance floor scene from Saturday Night Fever, my seven breast lumps in place of John Travolta and his buddies, doing the hustle… (1)

We scheduled more biopsies, during which the radiologist overseeing them said that my MRI films were so unusual, so odd, he would be using them that week at his teaching hospital, as a case study. (As a case study in what, I wondered, disco boobs?) (1)

I had to laugh when I saw this! I love her sense of humor, God bless her. I thought, of all places to see a reference to the Bee Gees and Saturday Night Fever.

Here is the video from the article:

The funny thing was, this was several hours after I finished writing the Sesame Street Synchronicity post. I had just been looking at Sesame Street Fever videos all day. It seems I was a magnet that day for finding this article!

We even get a reference to “disco boobs.” The doctor said that was a party going on in her breasts. If a doctor said that to me, I would have laughed and said it’s more like a demolition crew, haha!

Hey, you may as well have fun with it.

My surgeon said that cancer cells in the breast look like a “starry night” in mammogram imaging. I thought that only a beautiful soul like her could come up with that metaphor for something that can take you out! Thank God for these gentle doctors who try to lessen the blow. I love them.

Starry Ceiling

Part 2: Stage 4 Breast Cancer Survivor and Robin’s Birth Date

I have one more story to share. Recently, during the first week of February, 2020, I did some research on women’s stories after they found out they had stage 4 breast cancer. I went to this website, https://www.breastcancer.org/. A lot of the stories are encouraging and I admire the strength of these ladies.

I saw a list of stories, and scrolled down through them, but I did not click on any. Then, I saw one that inspired me because she was talking about enjoying life. It is by DivineMrs.M.

In the brief excerpt that I saw on the web page, she talked about how she was traveling, gardening and enjoying life to the fullest even though she had stage 4 breast cancer. So, I decided to click on the link to read the rest of her story. I was so surprised when I saw what for me was the presence of Robin’s spirit with me. The bold is mine for emphasis:

“I was a woman in my early 50’s in good health, married for over 20 years with a son in his senior year of high school (who got yearly mammograms since the age of 40) when almost four years ago, on December 22, 2010, I felt a thickening in my left breast. This was six days after my annual mammogram. Within a month, I learned it was estrogen-positive, HER2-negative stage IV breast cancer. (2)

There was Robin’s birth date, December 22nd, in the first story I clicked on. I have a heart connection with his birth date numbers, so this was very powerful, meaningful and beautiful for me. It was such a nice surprise gift.

Loved ones in spirit like to communicate with meaningful numbers, like birth dates and anniversaries, to let us know they are there. You can read more about this and other afterlife signs here.

This communication made me think of the Bee Gees song, For Whom the Bell Tolls. It’s so beautiful and I usually tear up when I listen to it.

I think of it because Robin poignantly sings, “I promise I’ll be there.

Indeed he is. In different ways, as some of you have also experienced. He had a good way of leaving afterlife messages behind in his songs. It is like his soul was speaking through the songs, leaving us hints that his presence would still be around. That is how I perceive it and it is wonderful to feel that at times like these.

I wish I knew what the book is at 3:02 into the video.

Closing Words and Prayer

The message I have been given, through synchronicity, is that it is important to stay very close to God at this time. If you don’t believe in God, I understand this won’t work for you.

But if you do, my guidance says it is very important to think about God as being close to you, filling you and surrounding you with love and health.

I also suggest thinking about loving, caring and supportive loved ones in spirit as being very close to you as well. Those of us still incarnate on earth often have a tendency to think of loved ones in spirit as being off in some far-away place. But, my experience is that they are actually very close spiritually, can interact with us and comfort us.

Paramahansa Yogananda said:

“To those who think me near, I will be near.” (3)

This also applies to God, our deceased loved ones and ancestors, guardian angels and higher guides. If you think them near, they will be near.

My wish for you is that you experience their presence during any crisis you may encounter, including this global health crisis we find ourselves in now.

I would like to close with a prayer:

May all beings experience an infusion of Divine Love.

May all beings be in touch with the Light of their being.

May all beings live from their hearts.

May all beings be fully healed in mind, body and spirit.

May God send angels to keep you in all your ways.

Thank you so much for reading!

Namasté!

Afterlife Communications: Unknown Soul Connections

Afterlife Communications: Unknown Soul Connections

As a result of my afterlife experiences with Robin’s spirit, I see newly engaged couples in a completely different way.

They see the best in each other, as they should. They are on their way to a life filled with love, unexpected challenges, and life-changing experiences, both positive and negative.

That is the reality of marriage. I have been married for almost 18 years, so I speak from experience. It really is a package deal. It is the message that Bruce Springsteen conveys in one of my favorite songs, Tunnel of Love.

I wonder what they truly know about each other at the deepest soul levels. And, I wonder what they don’t know about each other spiritually at the moment of their wedding.

I think back to my own wedding day and all my husband and I did not know about my soul connection with Robin, someone I had never met. After dating each other for 5 years before we got married, we thought we knew so much about each other. And we did. Yet, there was still so much to be discovered. And some of what that was would not be revealed until after Robin passed away. Then what was unknown became known.

The lesson is that there is always more to discover about yourself and your spouse because you are both evolving. Marriage can evolve to include completely unexpected spiritual bonds and experiences…if there is an openness to that.

Life is about growth, evolution and expansion to me. It is about coming into a deeper understanding of who we really are which includes who we have been, and who we have known and loved as a spiritual beings beyond our current lifetimes.

It means growing into the understanding that the person you are married to is a spiritual being with a rich, ancient history that may be unknown to you…and them. It could be a history that transcends this one lifetime. Sometimes the latent history manifests itself during an already established marriage. This is what I have experienced and been writing about on this blog.

Who Are You Really?

There are lots of shows where the weddings of couples are televised. Occasionally, I watch one for fun because I still love weddings. I look at the bride and I think to myself, “I wonder if the man you are marrying has a pre-existing soul connection with another twin in spirit that you know nothing about right now.”

I look at the groom and I think the same thing, wondering if the woman he is about to marry is connected to a soul mate in spirit he knows nothing about.

How would their knowledge of this impact their choice to marry, if at all? How would they handle being contacted by a twin, soul mate or soul family member who is now in the afterlife?

To my knowledge, not many people think about these types of things before getting married. I certainly didn’t. I had no knowledge that what has happened for me, in terms of connecting with Robin’s spirit, could happen. Nevertheless, it is true for me and others, such as the late Cornelia Kluijtmans (Cormael).

Nobody is going to tell you about this in pre-marital counseling! Not going to happen, unless perhaps it’s a spiritualist church. I’ve never been to one so I wouldn’t know.

I wonder how many other married couples are contacted by a twin or soul mate in spirit. I will never know because most people keep this information to themselves. I did for years.

The Infinity Symbols

But, it was hard keeping all of this to myself. Having breast cancer helped me get clear on the fact that I wanted to share my experiences to benefit others. I also like to share what I have read and learned during my journey. There are truly amazing, poetic authors in the world and I have shared some with you in this post.

When I was diagnosed in June, 2018, I did not know how much time I had left to live. One of the things I wanted to do at that time, which was very important to me, was to not pass away with all of my afterlife stories about Robin locked inside of me.

Even though I am recovered now, I am still motivated by the need to write what is in my heart while I am healthy and still can. I take nothing for granted. Having cancer gave me a higher consciousness, to get on with doing what I really want to do, and not waste time here. I encourage you to do the same.

Surprise Soul Connections

So, in terms of people dating, being engaged or walking down the aisle to get married, I think it is important to be aware that spiritually, there may be a lot more to a person than may currently be known.

It is important to know that a person can be happily married on earth and still have a long-standing, even ancient, soul connection with someone not currently embodied. It is also possible that this connection could manifest during some point while dating, being engaged, or married to someone else.Afterlife Communications: Play a Game of Chess

In my case, my connection with Robin manifested out of the blue with absolutely no warning. There was no way I could have known about this until it happened. I did not know I had a spiritual connection with him until after he died physically.

Surprise!!

How would you handle this type of situation?

I’m sure it depends on individual circumstances. I wrote about how I choose to honor both my husband and Robin’s spirit in the post below.

Twin Soul Connections: What If You’re Married?

As we move along the chess board of life, and the afterlife, we encounter those that we share an eternal soul connection with. Our souls talk with each other through synchronicity, dreams and other communications.

I personally believe we all have multiple, numerous soul and spiritual connections. Some of these are with people we have met and share our lives with on earth. Some of the people we are connected with are deceased and live in another realm of existence still connected with our 3D world. Some are with people we have not met during our lifetime and do not know about yet. But, they are still there and may show up when you least expect it.

Robin’s spirit opened this truth up to me.

Why do we have these connections? It can be because of various factors, such as belonging to the same soul group, being soul mates or twin souls.

Some people believe in the pre-existence of the soul. Or, that we know each other from another dimension or plane of existence.

We connect because we have valuable work to do together to benefit others, as is the case with this blog. Also, I believe we connect to uplift, love, pray for and support one another as life on earth is often quite a roller-coaster ride.

In other words, we are more interdependent than completely independent. Many of our loved ones in spirit are quite capable of participating in this interdependence. Our love and prayers benefit them and their nurturing, ongoing presence in our lives benefits us.

The Interdependent Relationship: Letting go of Codependence and Extreme Independence

There is a lot more to each of us than we know and see. We are all very mysterious in a way. We think we may know a person, but we all have multiple layers to who we are. Most of what we know about a person is only scratching the surface. Spiritually, there are very deep layers and connections yet to be discovered for many of us.

Connections Across Time and Place

I would even go as far as to say that what we know about ourselves is only scratching the surface. For example, if I have had past lives, I don’t know anything about them, where they were or who I was. I sometimes wonder if a past-life connection is influencing my current spiritual connection with Robin.

To illuminate this point, I would like to quote from Sir Edwin Arnold’s book, The Light of Asia:

 

For while the wheel of birth and death turns round,
Past things and thoughts, and buried lives come back. (1)

 

Perhaps this is why people in spirit come back to people on earth they did not know. Maybe they remember the “buried life” we once shared, even when the person on earth doesn’t.

Would it help me to know for sure if I shared a past life with Robin? I’m not sure. It depends on what happened. Maybe some things are better left unknown, at least until the time is right to know.

In this short, but interesting video, Dr. Pillai mentions that we are pulled towards people and spiritual practices we have known in previous lifetimes. I invite you to see what you think of this. I have always found this talk interesting and good food for thought. He states that being attracted towards a particular person indicates a past-life memory. I agree that this is possible.

Soul School with Robin

My connection with Robin has taught me so much that I did not know about myself, such as my ability to communicate with a person in the afterlife. I never did this before he passed away, so it has been quite a discovery.

He also taught me that I can truly trust my intuition when it comes to soul connections. His responses back to me over the years gave me the affirmation that my initial intuitive inklings about our soul family connection were spot on. That was very good for my self-esteem.

Very importantly, he has taught me, (and you!), how well a person in spirit can communicate when they have a strong message to deliver. We on earth just have to pay attention.

This is my life upon being awoken by the shock wave of twin soul energy, which some of you reading may be familiar with. This is what connecting with a member of your soul family does: it strengthens you and helps you to remember and know who you really are beyond this earth and this one lifetime.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read. I appreciate each and every visitor. I hope this post serves as a good resource for you.

I know there is a lot going on in the world that is distressing. I hope something I shared here supports you in the days to come, by bringing you some happiness.

Until next time, take care, stay safe and enjoy life to the best of your ability.

Afterlife Communication: Dream Street

Afterlife Communication: Dream Street

One of the best ways to tell whether you share a soul connection with someone is noticing the ways in which your life repeatedly matches up with theirs through synchronicity and life parallels. This is true whether they are embodied in the physical world or disembodied.

The synchronicity and parallels that have manifested in my life regarding Robin since his passing have been very enjoyable, comforting, and reassuring. But on a deeper level, they serve as confirmation that our energies are connected in a very mystical way. Perhaps you have noticed this in your own life with someone you are connected with.

Sharing a twin soul connection with someone in the afterlife that you never met in person is mysterious, challenging, and at times confusing. So, it helps greatly that I have been given messages over the years that unequivocally point directly to Robin.

I have to admit that I am still surprised and amazed by the mirror effect I share with his spirit. This is still going on after all these years. But in spirit, time is not a factor.

Overall, this connection with Robin is about spiritual growth and advancement for all parties involved, including my readers. It is about waking up to a larger reality beyond the seen physical world.

For me personally, this afterlife experience is a rigorous exercise in trusting in my own heart, intuition and the messages I have been given and not relying on answers, opinions, or validation from other people.

It is not only rigorous. It has been like going through spiritual boot camp. It is powerful training for learning to stand in my own truth regardless of how other people respond.

This is something we all have to learn at some point as we mature if we want to be true to ourselves and what is real in our lives. It builds spiritual strength to validate oneself, rather than looking to other people to validate your experiences. This is what I have discovered.

When it comes to this work, my loyalty is to God whom I serve, Robin’s spirit, and my own heart, not people on earth who dismiss spiritually transformative experiences and see them as invalid.

Afterlife Communication: Dream of Robin

Sometimes the afterlife communication messages I receive regarding Robin come in the form of dreams and synchronicity combined. This is what I will be writing about in this post.

Receiving synchronicity is like getting a letter in the mail. You can see it and hold it. But you won’t get the message unless you open the envelope.

Acknowledging, studying and writing about synchronicity is my way of opening the envelope and extracting all the beauty of the interconnectedness that I can.

Many years ago, I had a dream about Robin that has stuck with me to this day. On January 14, 2020, I lay in bed resting, thinking about this dream and whether I wanted to write about it or not for this blog. As you can see, I have decided to write about it and that is because I received a synchronicity related to it. Without the synchronicity, I probably would not be writing about this right now.

Here is the dream. It touches my heart deeply to write about it. I am writing about it from memory because I don’t know when this was and I can’t find it in my journals. After all of these years of afterlife communication, sometimes it’s hard to find the entries I wrote:

I am with my husband. We are standing at the trunk of our parked car, taking some things out.  I don’t know where this is, but the weather is nice.

 

I looked over to my right. Robin is standing there looking at me. (He looked like he did on the cover of “Size Isn’t Everything.” We did not say anything to each other. We just looked at each other. I can see his face very clearly.

 

There is a building there that he is standing in front of, but I’m not sure what it is. It is white and there are trees and plants around.

 

There is not much space between where we are parked and the building Robin is standing in front of.

 

Next, I turn around. I see Robin walking down a very wide street. It is tree-lined and paved.

 

It is completely unmarked, no lines like we usually see to guide traffic. There are no cars on this road and no sidewalks. There are just people and they are walking on this wide, straight, expansive road. Some are walking towards me, some are walking away from me. They seem far away but I can still see them…

 

I watch Robin walk off, away from me, by himself. It is a sunny, beautiful day. It’s hard to describe but the road was not like the ones we have on Earth. It was other-worldly and very real.

 

It seemed like he wanted me to watch him walk down the street and see what else was around him…like he wanted me to see where he was, what it was like and what he was doing.

 

Wherever and whatever this place was, it was nice, peaceful, sunny, with plenty of people around and beautiful trees.

 

The end.

I’m not saying that my dream is an exact representation of what it looks like in the spirit world where Robin is. I don’t know that for sure and I can’t prove it or verify it.

I am saying that this was a very personal dream for me that leaves me wondering what and where this place was. It felt very real and vivid, to the point I can remember it exactly many years later.

Not all of the dreams I have in general, or about Robin, have this quality I’m trying to describe. But if you have had dreams of loved ones who have passed away, maybe you know what I’m talking about. There is something different about these types of dreams. They are more real and in my case, I felt like I was with Robin for a short time. It may be better to call it a visitation dream.

Synchronicity: Wide, Tree-lined Streets

After I thought about this dream privately while I was waking up, I spoke with my husband about traveling to Mexico. We are interested in going to Mexico City and this is why we have been taking Spanish classes. Specifically, we are interested in La Condesa, a trendy neighborhood there.

Guadalajara Mexico

For the first time, I decided to do an internet search on it. I picked up my tablet and googled it.  I found this great article on La Condesa which you can see below. Maybe someone reading this has been there or lives there :).

As I scrolled down, I noticed a section in the article on “tree-lined streets”. I was so surprised when I read what the author (Victoria) said about the neighborhood. It mirrored exactly what I had been thinking about in terms of my dream of Robin. The bold is mine for emphasis:

“One of the appeals of Condesa is simply the beauty of it’s streets. It’s made up of lots of charming, wide avenues, with trees that form a canopy above.”

It is so interesting that key elements of my dream about Robin mirrored aspects of this article mentioning tree-lined streets. Many times, I receive synchronicity related to things I read or say. But this time, it was just my private thoughts of Robin connecting and synchronizing with my everyday life. I was meditatively absorbed in my thoughts of this dream prior to reading this article. The synchronicity with the article occurred within a very short time frame after my thinking about the dream.

Recently, I experienced another travel-related synchronicity. This was a message related to traveling to the U.K. So, I definitely see a pattern! His spirit is connected to my travel plans and dreams!

This is also the second time recently that a dream I had about Robin years ago mirrored something very specific in what I was reading currently, which you can read about here.

From my point of view, synchronicity, connected to my dreams about Robin, gives additional confirmation that the dreams are actual afterlife communications. The synchronicity supports and gives additional significance and importance to the dreams.

After Death Communication: Synchronicity Review

Synchronicity seems to be the easiest way for Robin’s spirit to communicate. This is a good idea for long-term afterlife communication. He can’t be coming over here to move objects all the time!

I would say that the vast majority of afterlife communication with Robin since 2012 has been through precise synchronicity. As reported on this website, I have had many dreams, some telekinesis and some electrical activity.

But most of the communications come in the form of quiet, gentle, synchronized life events that connect back to him.

Synchronicity is a wonderful, safe, non-threatening yet awe-inspiring way of keeping in touch with and staying connected to loved ones in spirit. It gives me the feeling that his spirit is with me through my daily activities. By sharing this perspective, I am doing my best to demystify afterlife communication.

It is amazing to me how something to do with the spirit of a deceased loved one can synchronize with the most minute detail of the life of a loved one on earth.

I write about how the small, everyday details of my life often mirror something to do with Robin. However, small does not mean insignificant. The small details are very significant, especially since they get my attention. Who knows what it takes for the unseen forces of love in our lives to get all of these circumstances to align? It may be more complex than we know. So, I honor this process.

Afterlife communication with Robin has given me a deeper appreciation of and respect for the quiet and the subtle. Synchronicity based in love, kindness and truth is very life-enhancing.

Synchronicity and Quantum Entanglement

I know I have written about this topic before here, but I thought I would revisit it for a moment with some additional thoughts.

I really wonder what is going on at the unseen spiritual level in terms of twin souls and synchronicity. My perspective is that, at its core, the twin soul connection is about souls that have nearly identical hues of light, color, vibration and frequency at the spiritual level. It is something most people cannot see with the naked eye. Members of the same soul group would also share a light frequency, color and vibration that are very similar.

I hypothesize that this invisible connection and energetic entanglement between twin souls shows up in synchronistic and parallel life events. I cannot prove it as a fact scientifically. But, it seems to me like there is something to this in terms of how connections we share with others in an unseen realm manifest in the physical, seen world. I don’t think there is anything wrong with seeing this as a possibility.

In the excellent article, Practical Symbolism of Quantum Physics and Relativity, Nebo Lukovich writes about quantum entanglement in a way that can be applied to human relationships and twin souls. I really love how he wrote this article and I invite you to check it out. Here are some quotes I would like to share:

“…In ancient times, our souls were often born with their twin counterparts (as within the binary star systems). In most of these cases, our so-called twin-flames (or soul mates) are very different from us, yet are we linked by destiny…”

 

“…The experimental data involved separating two photons from one another—both of which came from the same parent group of particles, originally—and stimulating only one of them to watch what reaction came from the other. Surprisingly, the unstimulated photon would mimic the actions of its partner, maintaining an identical quantum state… as though they’d never been separated at all…”

In this example, the two particles could symbolize twin souls and the parent group of particles could represent the larger soul family they come from.

I think it is fascinating to ponder that two human beings born at different times on earth, in completely different locations, from different ethnic backgrounds, even speaking different languages, could come from the same soul group in the spirit world and mimic each other throughout their lives on earth without either one knowing about it.

When twin souls do come to know about the connection, and can actively experience it so it can be enjoyed and celebrated, it is a miracle.

For me, unexpectedly meeting my twin soul via an afterlife connection has been like finding a needle in a gigantic cosmic haystack. I’m glad I did not know about twin souls until after Robin’s passing. Because if I had been looking for my twin soul on earth, I never would have found him. That’s how it works sometimes.

In my case, I feel it is good that we met again the way we did so we can share this work. It is also excellent training for not being dependent on or attached to his physical vehicle. It builds spiritual muscle to have to go beyond the physical to communicate on the spiritual level. It takes focus, dedication, commitment and love to tune into Robin’s deeper nature as a soul.

You never know who is going to come knocking on your door from the spirit world. If it can happen to me, it can happen to anyone. Perhaps it already has, for someone reading this!

The example I gave today, of how my dream of Robin walking down a wide, tree-lined street mirrored the article about La Condesa that I was drawn to, is one that reminds me of quantum entanglement at an unseen level.

What makes me say this? The large numbers of synchronicity and other forms of communications I have experienced pertaining to him since 2012. First, the beautiful, tree-lined streets were associated with Robin in my dream. Then, I get them a few moments later.

I’m open to other interpretations or explanations that can account for the communications I have written about on this website. I am always reading and doing research. But quantum entanglement is one of the more interesting possibilities and one I strongly resonate with.

To me quatum entanglement symbolizes the scripture “I will never leave you, nor forsake you,” at the spiritual level even when we are separated physically or in different planes of existence. This is because our loving mirrored energies are still connected.

Thank you for reading. I really appreciate it and as always, I hope that something I write about contributes to your life in some positive way. Until next time, take care!

Love,

Christina Samuels Signature
