The Music of Robin Gibb: A Beautiful Sadness

The Music of Robin Gibb: A Beautiful Sadness

This post, “The Music of Robin Gibb: A Beautiful Sadness,” is written in remembrance of Robin and in honor of the 10th anniversary of his passing on May 20, 2022.

Robin Gibb: 10 Years in Spirit

It has been 10 years since Robin passed away. I know that many fans around the world will be thinking of him, sending his spirit love and celebrating his life by continuing to listen to his music and watch his interviews.

I feel so blessed to have connected with his spirit over the years. I am very grateful to Robin for all that he has taught me and shared with me in terms of soul communication. I’m happy to know a little bit about what he is like as a spiritual being beyond the body. Still, I wonder about how he has grown and evolved as a spirit. I think about what he has seen and experienced in the spiritual world that is far beyond anything I can know.

I have truly enjoyed writing about and sharing my spiritual experiences with Robin who I strongly consider to be one of my soul family members. That is the way it is for some of us: we lovingly meet soul family members and those we share a twin soul connection with after they die physically.

It is my belief that we are all eternal souls, so these meetings can occur at any time, whether you knew each other in one particular lifetime or not. I never met Robin while he was alive and so I am deeply grateful that his spirit gave me what to me is indisputable proof of his ongoing life and existence.

I have documented my experiences on this website for anyone who is open this reality. I continue to write to love and honor Robin’s spirit, and the experiences, which to me are sacred spiritual gifts.

Why did he give me such awe-inspiring proof? My intuition tells me it is because we have known each other in other lifetimes and planes of existence. I recognized his soul energy in 2012 just weeks prior to his death. We have been spiritually connected ever since.

Hopefully, some day on this planet, it won’t be seen as weird to say something like this because the reality is we all have numerous soul connections with countless souls in other realities that we may not be aware of right now. Some of them will break through to us. Robin was able to accomplish this and has opened my consciousness up to new worlds and realities ever since.

I strongly believe another reason he communicated with me so powerfully was because I was open to the connection with his spirit. I was willing to work through my fears about communicating with him and I did not push the connection away. Having this openness is important for those of us interested in afterlife communication as long as we are doing so in the vibration of love and protecting ourselves.

Lots of things have happened in my life personally since Robin’s passing, over the years and recently. My father-in-law passed away in February, 2022. My husband Julian has had a hard time with this loss. As a result, about a week after his father died, he had a bike accident that left him with a black eye, scraped shoulder and severely bruised hand. I think it happened because he wasn’t concentrating as well as he could normally.

In our case, there have been so many new things to handle as a result of his father’s death. Luckily, nothing was broken and he has been recovering well. Still, it was another wake-up call as to how fragile life is and how quickly things can change. So, with all of these things going on, I went on hiatus from writing here so I could help with multiple family matters.

Still, I was determined to write for the 10-year anniversary of Robin’s passing. I have what I consider to be a heart-touching, music-related synchronicity to share with you.

According to author Robert Moss, who wrote the book, Sidewalk Oracles: Playing with Signs, Symbols, and Synchronicity in Everyday Life (2015):

 

Synchronicity is when the universe gets personal.

 

I could not agree more.

Since Robin passed away, the synchronicity I have experienced with his spirit has been connected to his life and my life in very personal, mysterious ways. It makes me feel very close to him.

What Synchronicity Means & How To Increase It

My feelings about the synchronicity I would like to share in this post are reflected in the lyrics of Robin’s beautiful song, “Don’t Cry Alone:”

 

Surely as the sun sets, new suns are rising…

 Afterlife communication with his spirit is the embodiment of these lyrics. In 2012, his life ended like the setting sun. We all know the sun still exists even after it sets and we can’t see it. It’s the same with Robin’s spirit.

I can’t see it with the naked eye, but his life energy, through the communications, continues on like the rising of new suns. For me, his spirit becomes visible, like a new day, a new sun, through synchronicity, dreams and other forms of afterlife communication. I firmly believe that synchronicity is a mysterious force that gives physical world evidence of an energy-light connection between souls that cannot be seen visibly.

The Music of Robin Gibb: A Beautiful Sadness

On March 19, 2022, I watched a show on Netflix with my husband called, “Love is Blind-Japan.” On one of the episodes, Misaki and Kaoru were talking.

It seemed like Misaki was criticizing Kaoru for being negative about painful events that had happened in her life. Kaoru, a singer, felt Misaki lacked depth and did not take enough time to get to know why she felt the way she did.

My husband and I paused the show to talk about the dynamics occurring between them. I said to him that Kaoru could channel her feelings that resulted from difficult life situations into her music. We talked about how this would be a therapeutic way to handle the situations. I shared my feelings that Robin could make sadness sound beautiful through his music. My exact words were, “No one could make sadness sound beautiful like Robin Gibb could.”

After our chat, we went back to finish watching the show.

The next evening, March 20th, about 24 hours later, we watched another show on Netflix called “Somebody Feed Phil.”

We were watching Season 1, the episode on Lisbon, Portugal. My husband and I have been thinking about retiring abroad and this is one of the countries we are seriously considering.

Towards the end of the episode, at 50:20 into the video, Phil mentioned an important word he learned during his travels in Portugal. That word is “saudade.” He said, “It’s a Portuguese feeling that seems to be part of the national character.”

It was his next words that caught my attention. I felt the rising sun of Robin peeking through.

Phil said the word saudade “means longing…or…or a certain beautiful sadness.” Here is a screen shot documenting this.Feed Phil.

I felt Robin’s presence with me strongly in these words that synchronized so clearly with what I had just stated about his music the night before.

The alignment with beautiful sadness and music continued as I watched the show because after Phil said this, there were musicians singing and playing Portuguese folk music called Fado.

Phil stated it was this kind of music that made people have this feeling of saudade. He said it was like the “Portuguese blues” which connects to the feelings of missing someone. It has to do with missing someone in a good way because it shows you love them.

Overall, I felt very happy that the concept of music and beautiful sadness was reflected back to me through this show such a short time after I was talking about Robin and his music. I find Robin’s tear-jerker voice, as Maurice called it, to be very healing and therapeutic in this regard. Sometimes I listen to certain songs like “Don’t Cry Alone,” “Country Lanes,” or “Heart Like Mine” because I know that when I listen to them, they will help me release tears, grief, and sadness I have bottled up inside.

These songs are all good examples of the beautiful sadness he conveyed through his voice and harmonies. Some other good examples are “Elisa,” “For Whom the Bell Tolls,” and “Love Hurts.”

A Beautiful Sadness: Reflections on Saudade, Soul Connections and Afterlife Communications

When it comes to afterlife communication, there are many times you just know in your soul that you are connecting with your loved one. As soon as I heard Phil say the words “beautiful sadness,” I felt such a strong resonance. It was like a little bell went off. I felt so grateful to be in sync with Robin’s spirit. I felt guided by Spirit to watch this show when I did so as to receive this poignant communication. The fact that we may be traveling to Portugal in the not-too-distant future made this synchronicity all the more meaningful.

When I say that I share a twin soul connection with Robin’s spirit, I mean it in terms of energy and vibration. To me, he is a member of my soul family in the spirit world that I share a nearly identical energy light vibration with. The nearly identical energy vibration shows up in the multitude of synchronicity I have experienced with his spirit since 2012, including this one I have written about in this post.

As a matter of fact, synchronicity occurred while I was in the process of writing this post.

During the afternoon of May 9th, I wrote this post and selected a few of my own blog posts I wanted to link to.

One of the posts I selected is “How Deceased Twin Souls Show Up, Part 2.” Before I selected it, I skimmed through the post to refresh my memory. I noticed I wrote about my Day of the Dead celebration for Robin in 2020. I spent a few moments reflecting on the photo of his altar with the food offering I gave him.

How Deceased Twin Souls Show Up, Part 2

Just a few hours later, during the evening of May 9th, my husband rented the movie “Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings.” I sat and watched it with him for a few minutes. To my happy surprise, one of the characters mentioned that her deceased loved one was getting all of his favorite things for Day of the Dead!

I felt in alignment with Robin’s spirit and the Universal spirit that watches over all of us. I felt this way because it seemed particularly unusual for an unexpected synchronicity with Day of the Dead to show up this way in May, not October or November when the celebration is typically held. So, this was very meaningful to me. Once again, this is how deceased twin souls show up! 🙂

I believe that the synchronicities happen to help make it clear that you do share a connection with another soul, whether still alive physically or deceased physically. The merciful Universe truly helps those of us who discover we are deeply spiritually connected to someone we did not know personally and never met in one particular lifetime. Our guides in spirit know we need the support and assistance in navigating our connections, as many of us are experiencing saudade.

“Saudade” can also refer to nostalgia or homesickness. Like some of you reading this, I experience saudade as homesickness for my true home in spirit. For many years, I have felt like the earth plane is not my true home. I miss the unconditional love, soul family connections, peace and beauty of the spirit world which to me is my true home.

This article, Saudade: the untranslatable word for the presence of absence by Michael Amoruso
gives beautiful descriptions of saudade.

One of the Bee Gees’ songs that makes me feel this saudade, this nostalgia the most is “Love so Right.” It is so beautiful and reminds me of a quiet summer evening in the 1970’s. This story of love gone wrong makes me feel so thoughtful and contemplative. When I hear this song, I tear up and feel like I can’t wait to hug Robin in spirit someday. It is beautiful sadness:

Our spirit guides, guardians, teachers and healers in spirit know how we feel. They see the full picture of who we are and who we have been together, even when we don’t remember fully. I believe our reconnections are completely supported by the Divine, our guides, angels and the Universe as long as we are lovingly open to reconnecting. I’m so grateful that Robin was open and willing to reconnect with me as I was with him. I hope you are experiencing beautiful reconnections with your deceased loved ones as well if that’s what you truly want.

Well, thank you so much for reading. I hope you will have some time to listen to Robin’s and the Bee Gees’ music in remembrance of him.

Due to all of the major life changes I am going through, I will write here when I can and when I feel inspired to. Until next time, take good care!

Love,
Christina Samuels Signature

Afterlife Connections: A String of Synchronicities

Afterlife Connections: A String of Synchronicities

by | Jan 21, 2022 | Synchronicity

This post, “Afterlife Connections: A String of Synchronicities,” is inspired by the book, The Power of Flow: Practical Ways to Transform Your Life with Meaningful Coincidence by Charlene Belitz and Meg Lundstrom.

Synchronicity is a concept originally presented by Swiss psychiatrist Carl Gustav Jung. Here is what he had to say about it:

I chose this term because the simultaneous occurrence of two meaningfully but not causally connected events seemed to me an essential criterion. I am therefore using the general concept of synchronicity in the special sense of a coincidence in time of two or more causally unrelated events which have the same or a similar meaning, in contrast to “synchronism,” which simply means the simultaneous occurrence of two events.

 

Synchronicity therefore means the simultaneous occurrence of a certain psychic state with one or more external events which appear as meaningful parallels to the momentary subjective state—and, in certain cases, vice versa. (1)

From my own personal experience, I can say that synchronicity can be awe-inspiring and life-changing. It can truly take you on a journey of higher consciousness. You can experience a profound sense of connectedness with loved ones in spirit through it.

A String of Synchronicities

Beginning in 2012, synchronicity has been one of the primary ways I connect with Robin’s spirit. The beautiful, momentous occasions of synchronicity was what initially informed me that I shared a soul connection with him. The soul connection, which to me is a connection of our energies, led to afterlife communications that continue to this day.

As I have experienced synchronicity over the years, I have noticed patterns that led me to study the phenomenon in more depth. According to Charlene Belitz and Meg Lundstrom, some of these patterns are called strings of synchronicities. In their book, The Power of Flow, they are defined in this way:

Synchronicities can happen one after the other, as though a point is being made over and over again…it’s the sequence of occurrences that make this a string of synchronicities…because the events occur one after the other, they resonate in your consciousness and have specific meaning to you in their totality. (2)

You can read chapter two from their book about strings of synchronicities and other patterns here.

In January, 2022, I noticed a string of synchronicities occurring. I have been watching the television show Queer Eye, Season 6 on Netflix. In this season, the Fab 5 are in Austin, TX.

As of this writing on January 18th, on three separate occasions, something I read about, said to, or wrote about Robin matched in a nearly identical way to something from this show. The three events of synchronicity that matched with Robin’s energy occurred in three different episodes. When the third synchronicity occurred, I felt it was time to pay attention and dig deeper into what was going on. That is when I discovered the concept of strings of synchronicities.

Now I would like to share the three events of synchronicity chronologically, which to me create an interesting string. I definitely felt in the flow! By sharing this, I hope to support you in recognizing strings of synchronicities when they happen in your life.

Synchronicity #1: Spokes and Wheels

During the evening of January 2, 2022, I sat down with my husband to watch an episode of Queer Eye called, “Showdown at the Broken Spoke.” The Broken Spoke is a honky-tonk in Austin, TX. The Fab 5 were there to work with one of the dance instructors.

After I watched the show, I had some things to do around the house. Then I sat down and thought about the show. I was recalling that the name of the bar was Broken Spoke.

After I was done thinking about the show, I had the thought that I would like to connect with Robin’s energy. The thought just popped into my head. So, I picked up a book that I flip through once in a while called Tragedy – The Ballad of the Bee Gees by Jeff Apter. This is a book I usually just flip through because I have already read a couple of books about the Bee Gees cover to cover. I have not read this book cover to cover as a result. I just like to browse through it occasionally.

So, I flipped through some pages and looked at Bee Gees’ family photos. Then I turned to another page and saw an amazing synchronicity, the first in this string of them. I saw a mention of “spoke in the wheel.” I was really surprised because I had just been thinking of the Broken Spoke bar. Here is the exact quote:

But then, while in Australia, Barry threw up yet another road-block. He cited songwriting credits as a spoke in the wheel of their creative relationship; even their solo efforts were credited to all three brothers… (3)

What really amazed me about this was that before picking up the book, I specifically thought that I wanted to connect with Robin’s energies. I connected with his energies through this very precise synchronicity. The exact nature of it was what I found so awe-inspiring and meaningful. It felt like he was with me spiritually through this. It definitely felt like an alignment and a oneness with his spirit. To me, the writings in books about the Bee Gees represent Robin’s energies because it’s about him.

It was also educational because I was not exactly sure what the expression “spoke in the wheel” meant. Therefore, I researched it. According to collinsdictionary.com, it is a mainly British expression that means to deliberately make it difficult for someone to do what they are planning to do. Barry was saying that issues with songwriting credits were causing difficulties in the creative relationship between the brothers.

I attempted to see if there was anything else I was supposed to learn from this synchronicity, but I could not come up with anything else. It seemed it was just what the Universal energies gave me that evening to connect with Robin’s spirit. We both had something to do with spokes.

I also thought that perhaps I was synchronizing with Robin and this episode of Queer Eye because it is filmed in Austin, TX which is where his eldest son has lived. This city would be significant to Robin for that reason.

Synchronicity #2: Preserving Roses

I keep an altar table for Robin as many of you know who have been reading this blog for a while. I like to offer his spirit beautiful flowers. On January 9th, I offered his spirit a bouquet of roses that was a combination of lavender, pink and white flowers. Here is a photo of them:

Afterlife Communications Robin Gibb Flowers

A day or so after I first bought the flowers, I sat at his altar table. I said out loud to his spirit that I loved these flowers so much that I planned to dry them to keep them. I mentioned to his spirit that you can hang the flowers upside down to dry them. Then I could keep them to remember how beautiful they were.

Then on January 14th, I watched an episode of Queer Eye called “A Night to Remember.” The Fab 5 were tasked with giving makeovers for students for their prom. It was meant to be very special for them as their experiences in school had been disrupted by the pandemic. It was a really nice episode that brought tears to my eyes.

At the end of the episode, Karamo gave the Queer Eye Hip Tip called “Make Your Memories Last Forever.” The tip was about how to preserve flowers after a special occasion! He said:

 

“Well, you hang them in a cool, dry spot for about two weeks, let the petals dry out, and then you spray hairspray on ‘em. This is going to keep the flowers for a very, very long time.”

I was so surprised! It was a direct match with what I had spoken out loud to Robin’s spirit about preserving the flowers arranged on his altar table! I was really grateful for the tip too because I didn’t know about using the hairspray. 🙂 The Universal energies came into alignment again. It was so nice that this was connected with something specifically to do with Robin and his altar space.

It was a very meaningful synchronicity because it has been years since I liked a bouquet of flowers so much that I wanted to dry them to preserve them. So, it was a perfect alignment with the show that it matched my plans for the flowers I offered Robin’s spirit.

After this, I thought about how this was the second synchronicity in 12 days that had to do with Robin and Queer Eye in such a specific way. It definitely got my attention. I felt God and Robin’s presence in action.

Synchronicity #3: 10-Year Death Anniversary

The next day, January 15th, I sat down to write a rough draft of this blog post. During my process of writing, I come up with different ideas as to how to begin a post. I go with whatever is on my mind at the time. So, this is what I wrote on that day:

As we transitioned into this new year of 2022, I have been reflecting upon how it has been almost 10 years since Robin passed away. I thought about how I have been communicating with him through dreams, synchronicity and telekinesis for almost 10 years as well. In some ways, I can’t believe that 10 years have already gone by. Sometimes it feels like a really long time that I have been communicating with him and at other times, it feels like it’s all new. Either way, having Robin’s energy in my life has meant so much in terms of my spiritual growth and evolution. I also know that Robin continues to evolve spiritually and I hope that our connection has supported his growth as well.

 

I am truly moved by the enduring nature of our connection. From my end, my connection to Robin’s spirit is one of love, commitment, devotion, loyalty, faithfulness, consistency and dedication. The physical world can easily pull us away from our bonds with our loved ones in spirit. But I decided years ago that I was not going to allow this world and the things of it to dilute the beauty of our connection and what we have experienced together.

 

My connection with Robin is a part of my heart. What I wrote is a reflection of just how powerful his spirit has been in my life and the positive impact he has had on me. When things happen, like what happened to me with Robin’s spirit after he died, which I have documented on this website, you are going to be dedicated and devoted to the spirit of the person. At least I am. That is not going to change for me. I will always be extremely grateful to him.

Later in the evening on the 15th, I watched another episode of Queer Eye called, “Craw-Zaddy.” In this episode, the Fab 5 helped to renovate a man’s restaurant that had fell into disarray in part due to the death of his wife. They had been very close in their marriage and he was still grieving.

He sat with Karamo to have a conversation about his deceased wife. That is when I noticed the synchronicity with the rough draft I wrote about Robin just hours earlier. He talked about how he didn’t have his partner and buddy. He said, regarding her death:

“It’s gonna be 10 years this July. And to some people, that’s a long time. To me, it was yesterday.”

10 years, a long time and it being new or like yesterday all matched. I was really stunned by this. At this point, I was feeling like there was something very meaningful happening in terms of Robin’s spirit and this show because this was two days in a row with the mirroring. This is why I called this a string of synchronicities.

In 2012, it was synchronicity like this that caused me to ask in prayer whether I shared a twin soul connection with him. The fact that it continues almost 10 years later is profound to me. It shows me our spirits are very strongly connected. It truly feels like he is with me spiritually through the synchronicity.

I am convinced that one of the main ways human souls connect is through synchronicity whether they are physically alive or physically deceased.

Synchronicity #4: Being in the Flow

On Sunday, January 16th, I spent some time reflecting on the series of synchronicities that I just shared. I was thinking about and revisiting the idea that maybe I was receiving so much synchronicity with Robin and the show Queer Eye because it was filmed in Austin, TX where his son lives.

Then I started thinking about how the synchronicity seems multi-layered due to the fact of connecting to the same show but with different themes. So, I started to research multi-layered synchronicity. I found this wonderful article by Chetna Jai called, “The Power of Synchronicity and How It Can Shape Our Lives.”

In her article, she cites the book, The Power of Flow and summarizes the patterns of synchronicity. She wrote about multi-layered clusters of synchronicity. She also mentioned single synchronicities and strings of synchronicity. I resonated with what she said about the strings.

After I read her article, I decided to research the book The Power of Flow to see if I could read any information about the patterns directly. This was when I received the next synchronicity in the string: the mention of Austin, TX in the introduction of the book! Here is the excerpt I read from the Google preview:

Awakening one morning in his sunny Austin bedroom, Caylor Wadlington heard himself saying out loud, “So I’m moving to Denver?” (4)

 

So, there is the mention of Austin, right after I was thinking about Austin. I was blown away and having so much fun with this string of synchronicities that just kept going! I thought that this was confirmation as to why I was syncing up with Robin and the Queer Eye show so much. This had additional meaning for me because I lived in Denver, CO for a total of 13 years of my life. It was where I first had visitations from Robin’s spirit. Thus, there are a lot of connections here.

I also thought that perhaps I’m getting the synchronicity with the show Queer Eye because it is an important show spiritually on many levels. The Fab 5 do so much life-changing, transformative work for the people they assist. The show educates, uplifts and encourages many who watch it.

Conclusion

I enjoyed sharing this string of synchronicities with you. I have been documenting synchronicities in my life connected to Robin since 2012. I believe that one of the main reasons I am experiencing this with his spirit is because as a member of my soul family, he is one of my guardian angels who watches over me. I also believe Robin is a guardian angel for numerous souls on earth. Of course he would be. He was a beautiful, loving light while he was incarnate and continues to be now that he is in spirit.

As such, things will happen that will keep us connected. Indeed, the synchronicities make me feel very much like his spirit is with me and watching over me. Sometimes they are so powerful, like the ones I mentioned in this post, it feels like he is walking side by side with me energetically. Maybe you feel the same way about your loved ones in spirit. I hope so! Their love for us continues on as does our love for them.

I believe we are surrounded by more loving guardian angels in the form of our deceased loved ones then we could ever imagine. I think they like to play with us and have fun too. I feel Robin’s playful, humorous energies in a lot of the synchronicities connected to him. I think that is the point. He has always brought so much love, joy, lightheartedness and happiness into my life and I am eternally grateful.

Thank you so much for reading! May 2022 be very blessed for you and your loved ones.

Fanny, Bee Gees, Keats and a Synchrony of Letters

Fanny, Bee Gees, Keats and a Synchrony of Letters

by | Dec 22, 2021 | Bee Gees Songs and Books, Synchronicity

This post, “Fanny, Bee Gees, Keats and a Synchrony of Letters” is written to honor two of my favorite things: The Bee Gees’ song “Fanny (Be Tender with My Love)” and poet John Keats’ love letters to Fanny Brawne. I also share how a letter I wrote to a dear pen pal synced up with one of Keats’ letters to Fanny. At the end of the post, I share a surprise synchronicity.

I write this post in honor of Robin and Maurice Gibb’s birthday on December 22, 2021 on which they would have been 72 years old.

For a long time, I have been wanting to write a post connecting the song “Fanny” with Keats’ love letters. It’s the perfect combination. So to begin, I would like to share a little background about John Keats and his relationship to Fanny Brawne.

About John Keats and Fanny Brawne

Here is a brief summary about John Keats from Wikipedia:

John Keats (31 October 1795 – 23 February 1821) was an English poet prominent in the second generation of Romantic poets, with Lord Byron and Percy Bysshe Shelley, although his poems had been published for only four years when he died of tuberculosis at the age of 25.[1] They were indifferently received, but his fame grew rapidly after his death.[2] By the end of the century he was placed in the canon of English literature and an inspiration for the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, strongly influencing many writers; the Encyclopædia Britannica called one ode “one of the final masterpieces”.

 

Jorge Luis Borges named his first encounter with Keats an experience he felt all his life.[3] Keats had a style “heavily loaded with sensualities”, notably in the series of odes. Typical of the Romantics, he underlined extreme emotion with natural imagery. Today his poems and letters remain among the most popular and analysed in English literature. Especially acclaimed are “Ode to a Nightingale”, “Ode on a Grecian Urn”, “Sleep and Poetry” and the sonnet “On First Looking into Chapman’s Homer”.  (1)

According to an introduction written by Jane Campion in the book So Bright and Delicate-Love Letters and Poems of John Keats to Fanny Brawne by John Keats (2), Keats and Brawne came to love each other while they were both living at Wentworth Place, Hampstead, London in 1819. It was originally two semi-detached houses. Fanny lived in the house right next to where Keats lived. Therefore, they were very close neighbors that could see each other all of the time.

Initially, Keats was not very attracted to Fanny. But that changed over time. Although he was not considered to be financially sound enough to marry Fanny, Keats still gave her his mother’s garnet ring which she wore indicating an informal engagement.

It was during the summer of 1819 when John Keats went away on a writing retreat to the Isle of Wight that his love letters to Fanny began. They bore witness to the all-consuming love he felt for her at times. Ultimately, their love affair was cut short by Keats’ grave illness with tuberculosis and death at a young age. Thankfully, we have his letters to reflect on and be inspired by.

I’m sure the Bee Gees’ song “Fanny” would have come in handy for John Keats to share with Fanny Brawne if it had been available to him!

A Synchrony of Letters

During this past fall, I had felt the inspiration to write this post, but I was having trouble coming up with an idea of what to say. It had been on my mind in November and I had browsed through the love letters of Keats to Brawne in the book So Bright and Delicate a few weeks earlier, but still nothing came to me.

On November 27th, I spent time writing a letter through email to my pen pal Autumn Imara, who shares a twin soul connection with Jimi Hendrix. It just so happens that November 27th was Jimi’s birthday. We were sharing ideas about the similarities between Native American and African spirituality. Autumn shared an enlightened perspective about Thanksgiving and her Native American ancestors, which you can read about here.

I wrote to Autumn about my perspective on spirituality and I shared my feelings. I quote exactly what I wrote to her below. Both African and Native American spirituality have strong connections with nature:

I resonate with any type of spirituality that loves and honors God’s creation of nature including trees, flowers, plants, rivers, streams, oceans, the wind, sunlight, moonlight and wildlife. It is so rich and life enhancing. Our ancestors had a true connection and deep relationship with these elements which I respect. I love connecting with the rhythms of nature and consider this also a part of my spirituality.

After I wrote Autumn this letter, I felt a strong pull to go back and read Keats’ book So Bright and Delicate. I kept thinking of what I could write for a blog post. I flipped through some pages of the book again. And then I came across an amazing synchronicity in one of Keats’ letters to Fanny that matched what I just wrote to Autumn a couple of hours earlier. This was a letter I did not remember reading and had not marked the page in any way

Here is the quote. The bold is mine for emphasis:

Do you hear the Thrush singing over the field? I think it is a sign of mild weather-so much better for me. Like all Sinners now I am ill I philosophize aye out of my attachment to everything, Trees, flowers, Thrushes, Spring, Summer, Claret, &c. &c. – aye everything but you. (3)

I noticed the matching of “trees, flowers” and how both Keats and I wrote about them first on our list. He mentioned the bird Thrush and I mentioned wildlife. I typed out more aspects of nature which could have been included in his etc. etc.

I felt very moved by how my email letter to Autumn synchronized with John Keats’ letter to Fanny Brawne. I felt so joyful that my guidance to read the book again lead to this meaningful synchronicity. It means even more that it is two letters synchronizing and makes the message more powerful. I think it’s fascinating how energies converge like this. When aspects of my life connect so well with something to do with Robin, like a blog post I’m thinking of writing, I feel a true attunement with his spirit.

When I begin to engage with Robin’s energies in this way, I feel like I enter into a field of magnetism that pulls me right into something that will match with him. I kept feeling guided to read Keats’ book after I wrote to Autumn and now I can see why. The energies were flowing in just the right way.

While I was in the process of doing research for this post on Saturday, December 18, 2021, I received another synchronicity which continued to signify this attunement and alignment.

A Dog Named Fanny

On December 18th, my husband watched the Marvel Comics movie “Black Widow.” I didn’t watch it because I was busy reading about Keats and Fanny.

After a while, I needed a break from reading. So, I sat down close to him to hang out with him. The movie was nearing the end, so I just watched along, kind of detached because I did not know what was going on. 🙂

My husband wanted to watch the end credits of the movie because they show a scene introducing you to another upcoming Marvel movie. Therefore, I continued to sit with him to watch it.

I watched as a woman got out of a truck and then called to her dog. To my great surprise, her dog’s name is Fanny! I looked at my husband and said, “I can’t believe that dog’s name is Fanny.” Here are some screenshots:

 

I shared with him that I had just been thinking about the Bee Gees’ song “Fanny” and reading Keats’ letters to Fanny Brawne all afternoon. Then, I sit down to hang out with him during the last few minutes of a movie and encounter a dog named Fanny. What are the chances of that? It was an amazing connection with Robin’s spirit and the “Fanny” theme.

The timing was impeccable. It was like it was all meant to go together. I feel so grateful for this.

This is what I mean when I say that when it comes to Robin, the Universe magnetically pulls together events in my life that match and have to do with him in some way. It has been happening for years. It is synchronicity like this that leads me to feel the twin soul and soul family connection with him the strongest.

Robin really loved dogs so it’s nice that the synchronicity showed up as a dog named Fanny! He would like that.

I share this story and others on this website because I know that many people experience similar uplifting synchronicity when it comes to twin soul, soul mate or soul family connections. Sometimes it helps to see that someone else is experiencing the same thing, especially when the person involved is deceased. So, I hope you can find something you can relate to in the stories I write about concerning Robin’s spirit. I find great joy in writing about them.

Thank you very much for reading! I truly appreciate it and hope you enjoyed this. Happy Holidays to you and your family and a very blessed New Year.

Happy Birthday to Robin and Maurice in Spirit. You are remembered, cared for and very loved.

My Interview with MysticMag: Afterlife Communication and Mystical Experiences

My Interview with MysticMag: Afterlife Communication and Mystical Experiences

by | Nov 13, 2021 | Synchronicity

This post is about my interview with MysticMag: afterlife communication and mystical experiences.

I recently had the pleasure of being interviewed by author Sarah Kirton who wrote the article, ‘Stayin’ Alive’ with Christina Samuels. You can read the article here.

MysticMag is a wonderful online resource covering a wide variety of spiritual topics. If you like reading about afterlife communication, then I invite you to see what MysticMag has to offer.

On their blog, you can find articles on psychic readings, tarot cards, astrology, spirituality, love, relationships, yoga, energy healing, mediumship, and personal growth.

In the interview, I shared perspectives on my afterlife twin soul connection with Robin. I also answered questions about afterlife communication and grief and whether my connection with Robin led me to seek deeper knowledge about the afterlife.

After the interview, I started thinking about how afterlife communication relates to mystical experiences. So, that is what I would like to talk about next.

Afterlife Communication and Mystical Experiences

When you think about it, many forms of afterlife communication fall within the domain of mystical experiences. Whether it is a powerful synchronicity or dream visitation, we are deeply affected by these unexpected phenomena that we are a part of but that ultimately, are being orchestrated by a power much greater than us.

According to Forrest Rivers in the article, Divine Signs and Unseen Ties: Synchronicities, Mystical Experiences and Psychic Phenomena:

The mystical experience is an awe-inspiring event, recounted through the ages by mystics, that can be described as a transcendent moment of knowing. The occurrence leaves one with a deep and intuitive understanding that they are part of a greater whole. During such an encounter, one may experience a range of emotions that include gratitude, humility and wonder. (1)

I have experienced exactly what he said on many occasions over the years in my communications with Robin’s spirit. I’ll bet you have experienced this too!

Now I would like to share an example of an afterlife communication I recently experienced with Robin that was mystical in nature.

On Monday, November 8, 2021, I was thinking about cosmic love poems. I love poetry that refers to stars, galaxies, planets and the moon with beautiful imagery. So, I did a google search on them.

As I scroll down the page, I came across an entry for “Cosmic Love Poem – The Poetry of Rob Radcliffe.” I thought, “Hmm, Rob Radcliffe? Didn’t Robin once use the pseudonym ‘Radcliffe’ when he was in the hospital?” I had not thought about this for a long time, but seeing the entry for the poem jogged my memory.

I began another google search to see if I could find confirmation that Robin Gibb once used the pseudonym “Radcliffe” while he was in the hospital to conceal his true identity. It took me about a half-hour to find the confirmation, but I did. Here is a quote from his wife from thefreelibrary.com:

She said: “I hate it when I find empty Ensure canisters. He would have these drinks of vitamins because he struggled to digest food. I have also found his hospital wristbands with the name Robin Radcliffe. He made up a false surname from the first hospital he attended, John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford.” (2)

I felt sad to read about this again. But in a way, I feel like there is a blessing occurring. It is healing to now associate Robin’s pseudonym with a beautiful cosmic love poem, not just the time he was in the hospital. It is very symbolic of the loving, transcendent, healed and whole state Robin now resides in.

The Healing Power of Mystical Experiences: Afterlife Connections

This is a good example of how afterlife communication in the form of synchronicity can help heal grief and mend our hearts. It is very much the activity of God, the Infinite Creator, flowing through our lives to bring this divine healing.

It is the sentiment expressed in this beautiful song by Singh Kaur and Kim Robertson called “Mender of Hearts.” It is a love song to God. If you have never heard it, I highly recommend it for healing, especially if you are going through a difficult time. Here are some of the lyrics:

You are the mender, the mender of of hearts.

You are the sustainer of all.

You are the mender of the wounds of life.

You are the sustainer of all.

In your heart You care for everyone.

Within all hearts, in everyone.

Rob Radcliffe’s poetry is a mystical healing balm and a gift. It’s a beautiful poem which you can read here. In his introduction, he briefly mentions quantum entanglement.

It’s so fascinating how researching ‘cosmic love poems’ led me to a writer whose full name is a nearly identical mirror to the pseudonym Robin Gibb chose. I could feel Robin’s presence so clearly and it really felt like his spirit was with me. I felt very in sync with his energy. This message points directly to him. It was very meaningful for me to see the name “Rob Radcliffe.”

This reminder of Robin’s spirit gave me the mystical feeling of awe, wonder and gratitude that was just described above. I am in awe that things to do with him show up in my life so unexpectedly.

It came as a complete surprise to find the poetry of Rob Radcliffe as I had never heard of it before. But as soon as I saw his name, I knew something was up. I feel led and guided to this.

That was the way Robin’s spirit spoke to me on that particular day. The interconnectedness of all of these details felt wonderful. Through this synchronicity, I felt a Oneness and Unity with God, the universe and Robin’s spirit that is characteristic of mystical experiences. There is definitely a healing presence there bringing all of this together.

This quote by Frank Joseph, author of Synchronicity as Mystical Experience: Applying Meaningful Coincidence in Your Life, sums it up well:

Properly nurtured, synchronicity is the true mystical experience of our times, that personal connection between us and the creative consciousness that pervades everything—from our unspoken thoughts to the swirl of whole galaxies. (3)

I hope you liked this post! It was fun connecting you with MysticMag. It is informative and a very enlightening resource. Enjoy!

How Afterlife Communication Helps Reduce Loneliness

How Afterlife Communication Helps Reduce Loneliness

by | Oct 15, 2021 | Synchronicity

Loneliness is a common phenomenon amongst humans. Some would even say it is epidemic. So, I thought I would like to spend some time writing about how afterlife communication helps reduce loneliness. Reduce is the key word, not eliminate it entirely of course.

Since this website is about afterlife communication with Robin, I thought it would be interesting to explore how his spirit and other loved ones in spirit can help alleviate some of our loneliness, even though they are no longer here in bodily form. It is amazing what our unseen companions and loved ones are capable of and I’m so grateful everyday for the experiences I have had.

This post is also inspired by the Bee Gees’ lonely-themed songs. Recently, I have been pondering just how many songs the Bee Gees wrote that had the theme of loneliness. Like many other singers and songwriters, they were tapping into this ubiquitous human condition.

Loneliness Amongst Humanity

According to The Cost of Loneliness Project:

Loneliness is often defined as the distressing feeling generated by a lack of meaningful, intimate, and reciprocal interactions. One might describe it as emotional isolation. Exacerbated by its gross under-recognition, loneliness is rapidly emerging as the great public health crisis of our time.

I have personally experienced loneliness off and on throughout my life. This pandemic exacerbated that feeling. Even though I am primarily an introvert, I still value and need meaningful social connections. That was reduced greatly last year and still to some extent this year. I have felt the emotional isolation mentioned in the quote above.

I really felt the pain of loneliness and missed being able to talk to people face to face without wearing a mask. I missed being able to hug people, go out for a meal at a restaurant or go to a class in a yoga studio. It was really horrible. It made me realize how much I do need loving and friendly connections with kind people. I know from experience that many others feel or felt the same way I do because I have read about it.

There is so much loneliness in the world that there is another website devoted exclusively to it called The Loneliness Project. It is a beautiful site where people can come and share their stories of loneliness. Somehow, loneliness is eased a bit when a person can open up and be honest about how lonely they really feel.

I would highly recommend both of these websites I have cited to build a sense of empathy for what some people are going through. It may apply to you personally and maybe you can receive a sense of comfort in one or both of these websites or at least find something you are able to relate to.

Bee Gees’ Lonely-Themed Songs

Given what was just mentioned above, there is a good reason singers and songwriters turn to loneliness as a common theme in their songs. People can relate to this and turn to music for comfort, healing and understanding.

Here are some of my favorite Bee Gees’ loneliness songs with the lyrics from azlyrics.com:

Run to Me

Run to me whenever you’re lonely. (to love me)
Run to me if you need a shoulder

For Whom the Bell Tolls

When the lonely heart breaks
It’s the one that forsakes
It’s the dream that we stole

Rings Around the Moon

If you’re lonely in the black of night
If you call me, I’ll be there

Another Lonely Night in New York

Another lonely night in New York.
The city of dreams just keeps on getting me down.

Heart Like Mine

Night grows cold
I’ve been lonely so much

I Can’t See Nobody

I walk the lonely streets; I watch the people passing by
I used to smile and say hello. Guess I was just a happy guy

Living Together

Take this lonely soul, the water or the wine
A chance to make you mine
I lay my body on the line

I’m sure there are many other Bee Gees’ lonely-themed songs, but I think the point is made with the ones I mentioned. They really tapped into this emotion and human experience because they knew and understood that people could connect with this. They make loneliness and sadness sound beautiful which is one of their gifts as singers and songwriters. This is probably due in part to each brother’s own personal sense of loneliness that they could draw from.

How Afterlife Communication Helps Reduce Loneliness

Many, many people around the world have experienced various forms of afterlife communication. If I had the chance to talk to some of them, I would imagine they would tell me that on some level, the communications helped them to miss their loved ones a little less and helped them to feel a little less lonely.

I’m not saying after death communication completely removes the loneliness of life in general or the loneliness that results from “losing” a loved one to physical death. I am saying that it can lessen the intensity of the loneliness.

Personally, it reduces my loneliness in the third dimension to know that loved ones in spirit are there and are willing and able to communicate. Robin and other loved ones in spirit I have connected to have added a beautiful and comforting dimension to my life just with their ongoing presence and willingness to stay connected to me.

Since loneliness is about the lack of meaningful connections, it would follow that having meaningful connections with loved ones in spirit could help reduce loneliness on some level.

Here are some key manifestations of afterlife communication from the categories of synchronicity and telekinesis and how they can help reduce loneliness. I will share my personal stories with Robin.

Synchronicity:

On October 13, 2021, late in the evening, I decided to browse through one of my Bee Gees’ books called Tragedy: The Ballad of the Bee Gees by Jeff Apter. My husband gave this book to me a few years ago as a gift. I have never read it cover to cover though because I have already done so with two other Bee Gees’ books I have. So, with this book, I just flip through it from time to time.

On this evening, I opened to a page where the story was told of how the brothers used to like singing in bathrooms to practice their singing. Here is the interesting quote I read:

When not performing for an audience, Barry, Robin and Maurice would rehearse wherever they could find a suitable space. A neighbor let them use her cellar; they also found a user-friendly echo in the men’s toilet at the John Lewis department store. They liked the ambience there so much, in fact, that for the rest of their musical lives, the Gibbs preferred to rehearse and record in rooms that reminded them of that toilet. They’d ask each other, ‘Does it sound like John Lewis?’ (1)

As I read this, I remembered that the Bee Gees’ used to like singing in bathrooms. I wrote about this in this post:

Will You Wait for Me?

I knew they liked singing in Lewis’ department store because I read about this in another biography. But I didn’t know the full name of the store, John Lewis, because it was not mentioned. So, as I read the Apter biography, I thought to myself that it was a little more new information. It made me think of the late African American congressman, John Lewis.

The next evening, October 14th, my husband said to me that he wanted to show me a video. He likes the videos on YouTube showing unlikely caring relationships between animals called The Dodo.

The video he showed me was about a relationship between an injured cow and a dog. As I watched the video about the cow’s healing and recovery, I received the most amazing synchronicity.

The narrator mentioned that the cow’s name is John Lewis! Here is the video:

This screen shot shows the name John Lewis:

John Lewis

I was so happy and amazed by how events in my life synchronized so precisely with what I read about Robin and the Bee Gees just 24 hours earlier.

This has happened to me before over the years, where what I am reading in a Bee Gees’ biography mirrors what is going on in my daily life. I see it as a sign of my connection with Robin’s spirit. I wrote about this here as well:

McKenzie and Massachusetts

This time, I have my husband to thank for this as well as God and Robin. I love that my husband is a part of all of this and that is how it should be.

This is how afterlife communication can help reduce loneliness. The expansiveness, awe and wonder that can arise within a person when receiving synchronistic experiences can help reduce loneliness because you can really feel the presence of your deceased loved one.

This synchronicity caused me to feel so loved by this amazing force, which you could call God. This interconnection between Robin’s spirit, my husband and me is the essence of what alleviates loneliness. This makes me feel like my connection with Robin is still very strong even almost 10 years after his death. It makes me feel like his spirit is very close to me. This is an antidote to loneliness.

Telekinesis:

Well, what could help reduce loneliness more than to know your loved one’s spirit is actually in your home moving your things?:) Robin let me know many times over the years that I really was not alone, even if at the time I felt like I was. Yes, spirits can come into your home and probably do all the time. It’s good that Robin let me know, in no uncertain terms, that he was there and had the skills to move objects.

My favorite examples of this is when he moved my necklaces with spiritual symbols in 2013. He also gifted me with an infinity symbol made of dental floss and left it on my tea pot handle, also in 2013. To me, that sounds exactly like the sort of thing Robin would come up with! It’s thinking outside the box in the most unique of ways and I love his spirit for this always.

Telekinesis includes moving a physical object with non-physical energy and creating something, like a design, with a physical object from non-physical energy. This is something Robin taught me that I did not know before his passing.

These experiences with his spirit are incredibly priceless to me and ones I will never, ever forget or ever take for granted. If you experience something like this with a loved one on the other side, you are BLESSED beyond measure. The excitement that these actions by Robin generated within me definitely help reduce loneliness I feel in my life. I still feel excited about these things even though they occurred over 8 years ago. But time is not a factor when it comes to spiritual matters.

I’m sure our loved ones in spirit know the impact they have when they do these things. I’m sure they love our ongoing appreciation of what they have done as well. I’m pretty certain that Robin loves it that I have shared with whomever is interested what he is able to do as spirit!

Thank you so much for reading! I hope you can see how afterlife communication is a sacred gift that truly can help reduce loneliness. It is so kind of our loved ones in spirit to reach out and still make such a powerful difference in our lives.

How Soul Connections Heal Our Sense of Separation

How Soul Connections Heal Our Sense of Separation

by | Jul 24, 2021 | Synchronicity

 “Our most deeply experienced belief is that we’re separate.”

~Tara Brach, Real But Not True: Freeing Ourselves from Harmful Beliefs

On July 20th, I watched the video by Tara Brach that I linked to above. I begin this post with this quote from her because it is true in its simplicity. It is meaningfully connected to the topic of this post which is about how soul connections heal our sense of separation from one another.

Humanity Carries a Belief in Separation

Collectively as a human race, it is clear to me that there is a strong belief that we are separate from each other. This belief is played out in how we treat one another here. If we did not believe we are separate, there would be no such thing as racism, sexism, ableism, anti-semitism, and homophobia, which are all forms of abuse and cruelty. Those behaviors are born out of a deeply held belief in being separate from the ones judged as worth less.

While we are still embodied in the physical world, that sense of being separate can be monumental. Our physical bodies give us the illusion of being separate.

If we still feel separate whilst we can still see each other, talk to each other, and touch each other, what happens when someone we love dies and they lose their physical body?

Won’t the sense of separation be deepened even more? The sad truth is that yes, in many cases, for many people, the complete loss of the physical body equals a complete loss of connection with the deceased person.

This is in part due to many people living at the level of body consciousness with little or no soul consciousness. Many people hold belief systems that life does not continue after death. Perhaps the physical death of a loved one reinforces and heightens the awareness that while they were alive there was a sense of separation that was never healed.

Healing My Sense of Separation

I have been sharing with you my direct, felt experiences of afterlife communication with Robin Gibb, someone I never met while he was alive in the physical world. In 2012, when I first woke up to my soul connection with his energy, I felt a sense of separation from him even though I still felt like he was a member of my soul family. We as humans are so complex that we can feel close to someone and separate from them at the same time!

Interestingly, I did not feel separate from him because he died and was disembodied. If anything, that made me feel closer to him because I could connect with his spirit in ways I could not while he was alive. I only know Robin as  Spirit-Energy-Light and I am quite comfortable with that at this point even though I still feel sad sometimes that I did not have the opportunity to share any physical world experiences with him.

Initially, I felt separate from him because I did not know him on a personal level while he was alive. I didn’t know if his spirit would want to connect with me because he had never met me. Also, due to his fame, I felt separate from him in another sense because in no way, shape or form do I have any connection to the world of wealth and status that he occupied.

But I recognize that that is a form of ego, to feel separate from someone just because of their earthly status which is a falsely constructed narrative designed to separate members of the human race, making some superior and others inferior, falsely in both cases.

So, one of the most healing and life-changing messages I have received from Robin’s spirit through afterlife communication and through studying our lives is that we are not separate. In fact, I believe that to a great extent, one of the major reasons his energy came into my life was to show me that we are not separate and to teach me this with actual experiences.

Death cannot separate us spiritually and in some ways, it can bring us even closer to someone we love.

I believe his spirit came back to me to help heal this sense of being separate from him, from God, and from the Universe. Through my communications with Robin’s spirit, I had begun to feel more connected to God and that I was a part of this magnificent interplay of energies, showing up in my life in the form of synchronicity directly related to Robin. In fact, it was frequent, precise synchronicity that brought me to the conclusion that we share a twin soul connection in the first place. Here is an example of the synchronicity:

 

Synchronicity: RAF Bomber Command Memorial Unveiling

After he died, I began to notice significant life parallels that really gave me the sense that, even though we did not know each other while he was embodied, we were not separate on the soul level. There were so many connections with family members, places we lived, numbers and dates that I really began to see a pattern. The life parallels gave me the sense that we really were connected on deeper levels that were orchestrated by a power greater than both of us. With the deeper sense of connection came a deeper sense of belonging to a soul family in spirit that Robin is also a part of. So, that was and is very healing.

Afterlife Communication Helps Heal the Sense of Separation Between the Living and the Deceased

Concerning Robin’s spirit, there are still powers and forces at work in my life that continue to reinforce the truth that we are not separate. Those powers show up as synchronicity which connect aspects of my life to aspects of Robin’s life. How is this possible now that he is disembodied?

It is because his energies are still here! He left behind a wealth of videos, televised interviews, photos, music and biographies written about him and his brothers. So actually, it is quite possible, even easy on some level, to still connect with him energetically and synchronize.

I would like to share an example of this with you now.

During the early morning hours of Friday April 30, 2021, I was up late. So, I decided to look through some Bee Gees videos on YouTube. I noticed the documentary, Keppel Road. I had not seen this before, so I decided to watch it for the first time.

At about 1:19:48 minutes into the video, I noticed children (I think Barry’s) riding ATV’s (All-Terrain Vehicles). This caught my attention because I had never seen this footage before and not too long ago, my husband Julian and I were talking about wanting to ride some ourselves. It looks like fun!

The same day, April 30th, during the afternoon, we went driving to a local park. On our way, I saw a truck towing some brand new ATV’s. This of course reminded me of the documentary I had just seen.

However, I did not think this was a synchronicity or any type of communication from Robin. I noticed it but didn’t think much of it. ATV’s are common where we live and we do talk about them every so often.

The next day, Saturday, May 1st, just after midnight, I sat at Robin’s altar space to connect. I lit a candle to say hello. I was thinking about the next blog post I wanted to write and how I wanted to keep focusing on his music like I did in previous posts.

I felt guided to explore the lyrics to the Bee Gees’ song, “Living Together.” I thought about and focused on the lyrics Robin sang solo in the song.

I decided to research the lyrics so I could see in more detail what they were singing. I looked at the lyrics on Google. I read the lyrics, scrolling down.

As I reached the end, that is when I received the most amazing synchronicity and energetic alignment with Robin.

I saw, just below where songwriters were listed, “Living Together lyrics © Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC, Universal Music Publishing Group.” Here is a screenshot from Google:

Soul Connections

ATV Music? There was “ATV” again. It was in a different context because this one mentioned with the Bee Gees music is Associated Television and connected with Sony Music Publishing. Still, there was “ATV” showing up again when it had just been on my mind. Once again, it was associated with something to do with the Bee Gees. According to Wikipedia:

Sony Music Publishing (formerly Sony/ATV Music Publishing) is an American music publisher, part of the Sony Music Group[1] owned by Sony Entertainment. The company was formed as Sony/ATV in 1995 with the merger of the original incarnation of Sony Music Publishing and ATV Music, which was owned by entertainer Michael Jackson. Jackson had purchased ATV Music, which included the Lennon–McCartney song catalog, in 1985.

For the record, I did not know anything about ATV Music prior to seeing this in the “Living Together” lyrics and I don’t recall seeing it in the past. It was fascinating how this all came together within a day of each other. I was being presented with the Rule of Three again which I wrote about in this post.

I didn’t believe it was synchronicity when I saw the ATV’s being towed. But with it showing up again so unexpectedly the third time within the context of the song lyrics that I felt guided to study, this felt like a striking and attention-getting synchronicity. I was so surprised! This made me feel so strongly connected to Robin’s spirit.

How Soul Connections Heal Our Sense of Separation

The strong inner message I received regarding Robin’s spirit after receiving this synchronicity was this:

“We are not separate. I have ATV, you have ATV’s all within a day of each other…for fun!”

That is what this energetic alignment is about: fun and how afterlife communication can be fun, uplifting and a reminder that we really are not separate, even if our loved one is deceased.

It is really hard when someone we love dies, even if you never met, so it is such a blessing to be reminded that we are connected through our everyday lives. The things we do and notice in our everyday lives can match with the energies of our deceased loved ones through the things that they have left behind here.

Robin left a lot of his energies here in terms of his music. Since we are spiritually connected, aspects of my life still magnetically align with some aspects of his life, even though he is no longer here physically. I think this is amazing and something I only learned about after his death.

I firmly believe that this type of synchronistic energetic alignment is possible between any embodied person and deceased loved one where there is a sincere bond of love, caring, respect and faith. Through these alignments, our sense of separation can be healed.

Thank you for reading! I wish you fun and enlightening energetic alignments with your soul connections that will heal any sense of separation you may be feeling.

Love,

Christina Samuels Signature
