Editor’s Note: This post may display some spacing issues that we’re working on resolving.

On November 4^th, I had some down time and relaxed by taking a bubble bath.

While I was in the tub, I started thinking about the world and the shape it is in, with wars, political unrest and violence all around the globe. I was having a moment of contemplation.

Then I started thinking about Robin and the Bee Gees and the vibration of their music. While I was thinking and sitting there, I had a quiet, private conversation with Robin and said that his music was and is so important for the world. I said it is important because many of the Bee Gees’ songs have a higher, soft, gentle, healing, loving vibration.

I said to him that his music serves as a counterbalance to all of the harsh, negative energies of this world. I spoke with him and said how important it is that he came into this world and was able to create and bring this loving, soft, gentle, but also fun and energizing vibration.

I also said to Robin that because of him, his brothers, and Mr. Stigwood, evil and dark energies can never 100% take over this world. I said that is because his music will always be here, contributing to the counterbalance and because of that, evil, negativity and spiritual darkness would never have a complete, 100% takeover and foothold on this world.

Love is always here in a multitude of forms and the Bee Gees’ music is a part of that. All forms of love and beauty are part of the counterbalance.

I also thanked his parents for the contribution they made to bringing this music vibration into the world because if it weren’t for them, there would be no Bee Gees.

When I was done talking with Robin, I said to him, “The key word is counterbalance.” I said this because I felt like this was a strong communication I was sharing with him. I wanted to give him a key word to communicate back with me that he got my message.

I said it from my heart and then finished up my bath.

Counterbalance Synchronicity: Julian and Robin

On November 5^th, I spent some time talking with my husband about a disturbing news story I heard about the night before. He listened to me quietly and then said, “All of the negativity and violence, lets counter it with love, peace, gentleness and kindness.” It was a very sweet response characteristic of my husband.

But, I was amazed because, through my husband, I was receiving the key word back that I mentioned to Robin the evening before.

The word, “counter,” is obviously close enough to “counterbalance” for me to accept it as a communication back. He used the word “counter” in the exact same context that I was speaking with Robin about, which is to bring more loving and kind energies into this world to counterbalance the negative energies.

I feel that this communication shows that we are one in spirit. Honestly, sometimes I don’t know if I’m just talking with Julian, or if I’m talking with Julian and Robin, with Robin’s spirit coming through my husband. Either way, the synchronicity is pretty incredible.

During my discussion with Julian about his comment and what I had said to Robin, I realized that I too have a responsibility to be the counterbalance to the negative energies prevalent on this earth. I could imagine Robin saying to me that the same qualities I see within him are within me as well. I’m not a singer like him, but I can be the counterbalance in other ways, such as through this blog, my art, and how I carry myself in this world.

You can be the counterbalance in many ways as well, if you so choose.

Counterbalancing Organizations

One other way I like to be the counterbalance is by supporting organizations like World Central Kitchen founded by Chef José Andrés.

He and his team feed people all around the world that are suffering due to natural or man-made disasters. I found out about him during the aftermath of Hurricane Dorian. He is part of the counterbalance. It is important to know that there are tremendously good people in this world doing life-saving work on the front-lines of these disasters. They are balancing out the pain and loss by bringing in love and care.

Dia de los Muertos 2019

Here is a picture of Robin’s altar from our Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) celebration.

For Dia de los Muertos 2019, I offered Robin’s spirit fragrant yellow roses and oatmeal with almonds, cinnamon, brown sugar and bananas and a mug of green tea.

I have honored him on these days for years. It’s beautiful to do this and strengthens our spiritual connection and love.

If you wish to strengthen your connection with a loved one in spirit, I highly recommend leaving food, drink, floral and other types of offerings for them during any time of the year. Of course, it should be something you are comfortable with doing.

It’s not just about the effect it will have on them. It’s also about the effect it will have on you. It’s a lovely thing to give in this way. I felt my heart expand in love for Robin as a result of leaving him food and drink offerings.

My heart also expanded in terms of Universal Love in that I felt that I was in a stronger love vibration in general when I interacted with my husband and people in the world. This is also part of the counterbalance. Doing this can change your vibration for the better.

If you are feeling down, one suggestion is to share a treat with a deceased loved one if you have someone you feel close to. All I can say is it has helped me in my relationship with Robin and other deceased loved ones over the years.

Brief Health Update

I will be having a biopsy on the lump in my leg on November 12. My oncologist still thinks it is likely to be benign, but the MRI could not definitively determine exactly what it is or whether it is benign or more aggressive. So, we’ll see. I’ll let you know. After what I’ve already been through with breast cancer, I feel kind of detached from it.

I’m going to do my usual things, like study my Spanish (which I really enjoy) and stay positive and upbeat. I have a dream that my husband and I will be able to go to Mexico in 2020 to experience the Dia de los Muertos celebrations first-hand!

God and Goddess bless you and take good care. I will write again when I have something good to write about!

Love,

Hello! I’m happy to be back to share some messages with you. After my last post, I needed a little break from writing so I could attend to some other things.

In terms of a brief health update, I recently found a small mass in my right leg (calf). An ultrasound was done and determined that further tests need to be done, like MRI or CT scan.

It could be a lipoma, but I won’t know for sure until further tests are done. So, I’ve been preoccupied with this new thing to deal with. But I realize many people are going through the same thing, so I thought I would mention this to let you know I can relate if you happen to be going through this.

I feel a connection to the breast cancer survivor sisterhood and any other people waiting for test results. It’s not easy to not know what something is and waiting to find out is no picnic.

I also recently started taking Spanish classes, so I need to reserve time to study for that in addition to my writing here.

Introduction

On this website, I write about communications I receive from Robin to demonstrate what is possible in terms of connecting with loved ones in spirit and to give examples of his abilities. But today, I would like to start by sharing some communications I sent to him recently.

Afterlife communication is truly a two-way street of giving and receiving. It is wonderful to receive signs, symbols, synchronicity, messages and communications from our loved ones in spirit. It is a good practice to ask for communications as well.

But it is just as important for those of us on earth to give and send messages of love and support to our loved ones in spirit also. That way, it is truly a balanced, ongoing relationship.

I have joked with Robin over the years that our communications are a little like a spiritual ping-pong match!

So, here are the communications I sent to him.

Heart Vision

On Sunday, October 13, 2019, I spent some time relaxing and watching the Bee Gees’ movie, Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band. I like to watch Robin’s videos because it helps me to feel close to him and connect with his spirit and energy.

In various interviews I’ve seen and read over the years, the Bee Gees spoke about how the movie was bad for their career and did not get good reviews at the time. Later in the day, during a quiet meditative moment, I thought about that.

Then I said to Robin that for those of us who never met him and who never followed his career, the movie is another opportunity for us to see what he was like on screen and to see his smile.

I said that there are a lot of cute, funny moments in that movie that fans love and make us laugh. I also said to him that it was not all bad and we can just fast-forward through the goofy parts that we don’t want to see, lol! That’s what I do, haha!

As a spirit, I’m sure he is glad fans still enjoy the movie. It was nice to tell him how I felt. It’s good to give loved ones in spirit a kind word or encouragement as part of afterlife communication.

I said to him directly that I see him and his work though my heart, whether watching his videos and movies or just in general. I shared this quote with him:

“It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.”

― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

When we see our loved ones with our heart, whether they still are incarnate or deceased, this creates a magical connection and strong bond of love that is infinite. Seeing with the heart is similar to speaking the language of the heart which is so important to loved ones in spirit.

The world is filled with harsh energies. So I think we can all benefit from seeing those we love with our hearts to soften things a bit, even if it’s challenging. We can also benefit from surrounding ourselves with people who see us with their hearts as well.

How many people do you have in your life that see you with their heart? It may depend on the situation.  It’s not always easy to find this. Someone who has known us for years may not see us with their heart whereas as a brief encounter with a cashier in a store can make you feel like you were seen with that person’s heart.

One other important question is, do you see yourself with your heart? This is something I’m working on because I have a tendency to be too hard on myself at times. Part of healing from cancer is healing this tendency within myself and learning to see myself with my heart with gentleness and understanding.

Dr. Kristin Neff, co-founder of the Center for Mindful Self-Compassion, constructively addresses this tendency in an excellent article you can find here.

Musical Message

In addition to this quote I just mentioned, I shared with Robin this song from the movie, The Prince of Egypt, called Through Heaven’s Eyes.

It is one of my favorite songs. Have you heard it before? For me, the lyrics are very important and I absorb the message into my soul.

It is saying that we can only see our value and worth if we look at our lives through Heaven’s eyes. We cannot see where our true worth lies if we look at our lives through the eyes of man.

Do you see yourself through the eyes of man or through Heaven’s eyes? If a person who loves you can see you with their heart, that is beautiful.

For a broader perspective, this song reminds us to look at our lives through Heaven’s eyes, with the eyes of love, understanding, forgiveness and compassion.

Many times in our lives, sometimes even daily (especially in the workplace), we are subjected to being seen through the eyes of judgment. All over the world, people are being bullied and abused. This is unacceptable.

It is important to never see yourself through the eyes of an abuser, bully or someone who is hyper-critical. They cannot see you rightly. Their minds are clouded with their unresolved personal dramas, pain, fear, and faulty conditioning.

I am writing about this because someone reading may be going through this and I want to send out a positive message of encouragement. We all need reminders at times.

Do your best to see yourself through Heaven’s eyes. Practice seeing yourself with your heart. It’s easy to say this and a lot harder to do sometimes. But it’s something we would benefit from training ourselves to do.

Seeing ourselves through Heaven’s eyes is one of the greatest ways to protect oneself from the negative effects of abusive words, unfair judgment and criticism. This song has helped me immensely over the years in terms of my own personal healing.

It’s about seeing ourselves and others through the eyes of love.

This song suggests that the worth of a person should be measured by how much he or she gave, not by how much material wealth was gained. Robin gave us so much of himself, even through this movie that he did not like too much. He is still giving a lot of himself as a spirit, which is why I love and care about him so much. He’s given me a lot to share with you.

So, I took this opportunity to share this message with him about seeing him with my heart and through Heaven’s eyes. I hope you benefit from this message also.

How We View the Afterlife Communication We Receive

When it comes to the afterlife messages I receive from Robin, there are a broad range of types of communication where he uses different tools and methods. Lately, I have noticed some signs of his presence with me that are treats. They are subtle, but sweet and I value them tremendously. I see these signs with my heart.

Messages from loved ones in spirit are not always going to be a grand gesture, although they can be. I have experienced them and shared many with you on this website, such as this message on money.

But it is important for me to always acknowledge, love and appreciate the subtle signs that may not have a huge deeper meaning like the Ubuntu synchronicity. Sometimes, the messages are just, “Hi, I’m here,” or “I heard your request.” These types of signs are precious too.

It is important for me to communicate that we on earth should not blow off gentler or more subtle communications from loved ones in spirit as nothing or insignificant.

That’s like complaining that I got a chocolate cupcake instead of a big 5-layer cake. Well, what’s wrong with the cupcake? Cupcakes are great too!! Sometimes, all you need is a cupcake.

When Robin turned his picture upside down on his altar, that was the big 5-layer cake. But, he can’t do that all of the time. It wouldn’t be as special if he did. And I don’t need that all of the time. He did that for me when I needed to know he was around in a way that I could not deny.

So, I love my “cupcake” signs! They are great for everyday communications.

The “smaller,” more subtle signs are a big deal too when you consider that we are communicating across dimensions.  I know we Americans like things smack bang in our faces, at least according to Robin, lol! But our loved ones in spirit communicate in a variety of ways that must be appreciated. I am grateful for what I am given.

So now, I would like to share a couple of the messages I have received lately.  I see them through Heaven’s eyes.

Peppermint Sign:

On October 5^th, I watched the video for medium Suzanne Giesemann that I mentioned to you in my previous post.

I liked her focus on evidence-based mediumship so that her readings have much more credibility.

At one point, she suggested that we ask for a sign from a loved one in spirit. So, since I had my notebook in front of me and was taking notes, I wrote my request for a sign from Robin, which was simply this:

I ask for a loving sign from Robin today…round red and white peppermint candy.

That’s what came into my mind and all I could think of at the moment. I did not want to take  much more time trying to think of a sign to ask for because I wanted to pay attention to what Ms. Giesemann was saying.

I was not able to watch the entire session because I had a date with my husband for a late lunch. We went out for Chinese food.

When we got to the restaurant, I have to admit that I was looking to see if those peppermints were on the front counter, but there were none to be found.

So, we had our yummy lunch and then came home. We watched television at home that evening.

Just after midnight on October 6^th, which was my 53^rd birthday, I watched the show called A Million Little Things. It was Season 2, Episode 2 called Grand Canyon.

I love that show! The episode was so synchronistic. In that episode, there was a psychic medium who provided clear evidence of the presence of Maggie’s deceased brother. So, I unexpectedly saw an evidential medium on television in very close proximity to watching Suzanne earlier on October 5^th.

During the episode, Maggie goes into a restaurant. She sits at the bar. A man sitting next to her starts talking about the mints in a bowl at the host booth. I was quite surprised! I was thinking that maybe I was getting my sign from Robin after all.

Then he said the bowl of mints “was like a peppermint septic tank.”

There was my sign! Jackpot! They weren’t the round red and white peppermint candy like the kind in the picture above. They were round white mints. But it was still peppermint showing up about about 12 hours after I asked for the sign. So, I’ll take it.

I didn’t get the mints at a real life restaurant, but I did get them in a television restaurant, so it was a nice surprise. I thanked Robin for that and considered it my birthday present from him. There’s my “cupcake!”

Ms. Giesemann said you could ask your loved one to put the thought in your head about what the sign could be. So, maybe Robin put the thought into my head about peppermint candy because that was pretty fast turn-around.

Poppy on a Canadian License Plate:

On October 7^th while driving home, we drove by a car where I noticed a flower on the license plate. I said to my husband that I thought it was a poppy. He slowed down so the car could pass us and I could see the plate. It was an Ontario plate with a poppy on the left side. Someone in the family was a veteran. I was so happy to see this plate. Ontario plates are common where I live in Florida because people are escaping the cold weather. But I have never seen a plate with the poppy on it.

I felt it was a rare and special gift and I acknowledged Robin’s presence with me. Here is what the plate looked like.

It’s one of those small things that is really a big thing when you consider the perfect timing of events leading me to be able to see that plate.

That’s all I have to share for now. If you like reading about afterlife communication stories, you may like this website. It shows that lots of people are communicating with loved ones in spirit.

I hope you enjoyed this post and found something in it that will fortify your soul.

Love,
