Legacy

by Christina | Feb 24, 2019 | General Communications, Synchronicity, Twin Souls

In honor of Black History Month here in the United States, I would like to present this article I wrote about Robin in 2012. I was still getting to know who he was as a person and musician at that time. I learned quickly that he and his brothers felt a strong connection to black R&B soul music. I write this post to honor and recognize this connection and the courage he had to give birth to the R&B music that truly was in his heart.

Robin Gibb: An Interracial Musical Legacy

By Christina Samuels

September 19, 2012 (updated February 22, 2019)

This article is dedicated to Robin Gibb, to honor his memory and legacy.

Robin Hugh Gibb, CBE of the Bee Gees died on May 20, 2012 at the age of 62.

The outpouring of kind sentiments since his death shows that Robin is a much-loved man for a variety of reasons. Whether it is love of the Bee Gees music, Robin’s music as a solo artist, his sense of humor, or tremendous humanitarian spirit, many can find a reason to send blessings his way.

No-Go Areas in Music

When you first think of Robin Gibb, you may not think of him as having an interracial musical legacy. However, if you listen closely to some of the things he has said over the years, it is clear to me that he did.

Recently, I had the pleasure of watching a 2010 documentary on the Bee Gees called In Our Own Time.

During a segment of this documentary, Robin commented on the period of time during the 1970’s when the Bee Gees recorded one of their famous hits, Jive Talkin’.

He mentioned the pressures that white bands, especially white American bands, had at the time to not go into so-called black areas of music. However, as a British band, Robin commented that they did not feel the same pressures or fears. According to Robin, “Because we were English, we were less self-conscious about exploring the no-go areas…” He then goes on to say, “We didn’t think that there was any “no go” areas, it’s music!”

I could not agree more. Within these words lies the heart of Robin Gibb’s interracial musical legacy. He loved black R&B music as did his brothers. But more importantly, they had the courage and talent to not only pursue this love, but to bring their unique creations into the world, whether other people liked it or not.

I felt so many emotions when I heard Robin’s words. First, I was so grateful that he, his brothers and producers had the courage to see music this way. Imagine how many Bee Gees songs would have never been released if they had thought otherwise.

It has always been a shame to me that racial segregation has crept into and corrupted something as universal as music.

There is nothing wrong with celebrating and acknowledging the racial and ethnic origins of different types of music. The Bee Gees were good at acknowledging the black American roots of their music and openly confessed their admiration of artists such as Stevie Wonder and Otis Redding. (1)

In a Detroit Metro Times article by Michael Jackman, Robin is quoted as saying:

“The Bee Gees were always heavily influenced by black music … and soul has always been my favorite genre.”

But, why should singers be banned from performing a certain type of music if they are not from a particular race or ethnic group? To do this is to cut off the creative energy that groups like the Bee Gees wanted to express. If they have the talent, why not support them in pursuing the music that excites them?

There are no “no go” areas when it comes to performing music or listening to music as a fan.

The Racial Politics of Music

As a black American woman, there have been many times in my life when black friends and acquaintances would raise an eyebrow at my diverse taste in music. This was especially during the late 1980’s. If I dared to express my fondness for bands such as U2 or REM, I would be met with disapproval clearly indicating I was some kind of social misfit.

To them, this type of music was a “no go” area.

I guess I’m not supposed to like them according to some people because I’m black and I owe some kind of strange loyalty to only black musicians. That doesn’t make any sense to me. I like lots of styles of black music, especially 70’s disco, but I also like lots of other types of music as well. It’s too bad I didn’t have Robin’s quote handy at the time.

I was confronted with a similar attitude just a few years ago. My husband and I were shopping in a store and waiting for assistance. On that day, I was wearing a Bee Gees t-shirt. While we were waiting, a black gentleman came in the store. He was waiting for customer service as well. He looked over at me and saw my t-shirt. He said, “Bee Gees? That’s a first.” I said to him that they are my favorite band and I love them.

After we left the store, my husband spoke to me about this comment. He said that the guy said that to me because I’m probably the first black female that he’s ever seen wearing a Bee Gees t-shirt! That may very well be the case, but I’ve got news for him: black women like the Bee Gees too! We do now and we did in the 70’s. I guess he never saw this Soul Train video showing plenty of black women dancing to the Bee Gees’ music! I wish the video was longer!

The funny thing is that day, Spirit had my back. As we were pulling out of the store, getting ready to make a left turn, I saw a truck with a license plate that read, “T-SHIRT”! Can you believe that? Right on cue too, after all this talk about my Bee Gees t-shirt. I felt like I was being watched over. That was pretty cool!

I love my Bee Gees t-shirts and I will continue to wear them. This t-shirt is one of my favorites because I love the colorful font.

I get nice comments from both white men and women about my t-shirts. It seems people love being reminded of the Bee Gees. The shirts are great conversation starters in grocery stores!

During the summer of 2017, I called for an Uber driver while I was in Atlanta, Georgia. I was picked up by an older black gentleman who was listening to a Christian radio station. He asked me if the music was ok and I said, “Yes, I need all the help I can get.” I was in the process of moving at the time.

While I was in his car, my phone rang. When it rings, Stayin’ Alive plays.

After I got off the phone, he was quiet for a few moments. Then he made a comment about how Stayin’ Alive was playing when my phone rang and how much he liked hearing it again. He said he thought that was really good music back then. We had fun talking about 70’s music during the rest of the trip. Hearing Stayin’ Alive for just a few moments made both of our days more enjoyable and I encouraged him to listen to more Bee Gees music. For many of us, it brings back good memories.

When it comes down to it, music is universal art that can take many forms and evoke a wide range of emotions. Music is created by humans of diverse racial and ethnic backgrounds but ultimately transcends these human limitations. As of 2019, I would say that most people have musical tastes that include artists not of their own racial or ethnic background.

No one should be made to feel bad because they like the music of people who come from a different ethnic group than their own. That is the absurdity of racism. It is ultimately a complete waste of energy. I prefer to enjoy the delicious buffet that is the music industry.

Twin Souls-Racial Identity

For this segment, the sociologist within me is going to come out.

The Bee Gees were so good at singing black R&B soul music, there was a time that fans thought they were black. In an interview from 1989 by Ina.fr on YouTube, they talked about their R&B roots and their crossover as a white band into black music.

The interviewer commented on how fans thought they were black, at which time Robin joked and said, “Well, we were black, but we had an operation 3 years ago and mine didn’t quite work…” Meaning, he was still black. He made some other funny comments that made me laugh.

I cannot find the interview on Youtube at this time, but maybe you’ve seen it if you’re a fan of the Bee Gees. Here is a clip from the interview, which was much longer originally. You may recognize it.

Unfortunately, it does not have the dialogue I’m referring to. I have the quotes from the interview because I have it saved in my files.

The interviewer also asked Barry about the similarities between his and Robin’s voice since they are brothers.

Barry said, “They’re not really that similar.” He went on to say that the tones are similar but, “Robin’s voice is a little blacker than mine, a little more R&B, as he said, he is black…”

Then Robin said, “I’ve always been black…” Barry interjected with a slight disagreement, remarking about some other time but Maurice said they didn’t want to talk about that.

When I was just learning about him years ago, it really stood out to me that he felt so closely identified with black music that he would say this. I was also so happy from a twin soul perspective, because I’m black.

When twin souls come from different parts of the world, they probably won’t look alike. But I hypothesize that twin souls may identify with each other’s racial or ethnic background in some way so they end up feeling like they are a part of the racial group that their twin is a part of.

Robin said he’d always been black, in terms of music and perhaps in other ways I’m not aware of. I grew up in a predominately white, Irish-Catholic suburb of Boston, MA which contributed to my feeling biracial most of my life internally even though externally to the world, I am black. Sometimes, racial identity is a little more complex than neatly fitting in a box of “black” or “white.”

I wonder sometimes if I was born where I was so I would be more closely connected to Robin’s racial background. It’s interesting that he was raised in England and I was born and raised in New England. I also wonder if this was orchestrated so that we would see the connection later, after his death.

At any rate, being born and raised in the suburbs of Boston had everything to do with my musical tastes because I was usually exposed to the songs of white musicians on a regular basis. That is what I was surrounded by. I am grateful that I never had a segregationist view of music.

Twin Soul Music Issues

At one point or another, Robin and I both had trouble gaining acceptance, in terms of music, in a way that is similar to each other.

There was a time when black radio stations didn’t want to play Bee Gees music because they were white singers.

Robin was an English singer who listened to and loved black R&B soul music. He sang in the style of R&B contemporary music but was rejected by black stations because he was a member of a white band.

I’m sure that rejection was difficult for him and his brothers because of their love for black soul music.

When I learned about the rejection he faced, it reminded me of my own issues with rejection over my musical tastes.

As I mentioned above, there was a time in my life when some of my black friends didn’t like it that I loved alternative rock music created by white musicians.

They treated me like I was doing something that I wasn’t supposed to do. That was difficult for me as well, to be rejected because of the music I liked.

The roots of these attitudes lie in the troubled racial history of the United States. It is reflected in this article from Billboard, October 30, 1976 by Paul Grein called Black Radio – Racial Lines in Fadeout?

Here is a screen shot from page 3 illustrating this point. The link above will take you to a section of the Billboard article where the Bee Gees are mentioned, as well as the politics behind why certain music is played on particular radio stations. It’s really interesting to read Billboard articles from the 1970’s.

Screenshot of Billboard October 30 1976

Even though we had vastly different connections with music (Robin being a career musician versus my being a music fan), we both dealt with race-related music issues. Robin faced this discrimination and rejection on a much larger, more public scale than me, but I can truly relate to how he must have felt. We both faced rejection because we crossed over into areas of music different than our own racial group, thereby challenging rigid cultural norms and stereotypes.

Ultimately, we both decided to be true to ourselves and followed the music we loved despite the shaming disapproval of others. We both had self-acceptance which is the most important acceptance to have.

Acceptance

The self-acceptance and perseverance eventually evolved into acceptance from black radio stations because the Bee Gees were great song-writers and singers and they had the right sound. This is an important aspect of black history as it relates to music in the U.S.

In an article called, Why the Bee Gees Sound So Good by Janet Maslin (February 18, 1979, Page 19; The New York Times Archives) the Bee Gees were described as having the same strengths as Motown groups. They were able to create dance and party music that both black and white audiences enjoyed. (2)

This statement is mirrored by Robin’s comments made during the time that Too Much Heaven was released and gaining more attention:

Much to the group’s delight, it also rapidly gained recognition on the American soul radio stations. “At the moment, it’s really taken off big on the black stations,” Robin said. “We’ve got a lot of black people buying our records, but we’ve never had [acceptance from] black stations.” (3)

It seems like it took a beautiful song with themes of love and heaven to help break down that wall and gain the acceptance. Too Much Heaven is a song that all of humanity can benefit from and relate to at some point in our lives.

To substantiate what Robin said, here is a screenshot from Billboard, September 30, 1978, page 43, where there is a discussion of black radio stations playing Bee Gees music to a much greater extent: See the image below.

Screenshot, Billboard Sept. 30 1978

I celebrate the fact that the Bee Gees were able to overcome the reluctance of black radio stations to play their music during the late 1970’s. (See the17^th paragraph down on the albumlinernotes link). Music has the potential to bring people together in unity.

Black stations agreed to play Bee Gees’ music it because it was great music at its core that they liked. And as Robin said, black listeners and audiences liked the Bee Gees music and wanted to hear it played on the radio, so black stations had to change to keep up with the demands of the times.

In Closing

I close with this quote below. As I read this, I took a moment to consider how much work and sacrifice it took the Bee Gees to create soulful, impactful music across the decades that connected with people from all backgrounds. The Bee Gees are not popular with just black and white audiences. Their fans come from all around the world, including Japan and Mexico:

By 1976, “The Bee Gees’ music had successfully spanned several generations, and they were also popular with both black and white audiences, an accomplishment that is rare in rock history. Virtually no group has enjoyed such mass popularity with such a diverse audience…” (4)

For this reason, I will always admire and enjoy the interracial and multi-cultural legacy of Robin Gibb and the Bee Gees.

I learned a lot about the music industry in the 1970’s as a result of writing this post and really enjoyed it. It was an interesting way to acknowledge Black History Month. I honor black R&B soul musicians who positively influenced the careers of many successful artists, including the Bee Gees.

Thank you, Robin, for sharing your gifts with the world. You will always be loved and remembered. Love and thanks to Maurice as well.

In Contact

by Christina | Feb 21, 2019 | Synchronicity, Twin Souls

On February 17, 2019, I felt guided to watch the movie Contact again. I had not seen it in many years.

It is one of my all-time favorite movies and it means a lot to me. It ties into my childhood dream occupation of being an astronomer. As a child, I was absolutely fascinated with the solar system we live in. I read books on it and I had a telescope. I was obsessed with the movie, Close Encounters of the Third Kind and also read the book many times.

My love for studying the stars and planets was the best part of my childhood. As an adult, I still love star-gazing and connecting with the planetary energies beyond Earth.

Contact takes us beyond the Earth into the beauty and wonders of not only our solar system, but countless others. It is about the perennial search for extraterrestrial life.

The movie addresses the following topics: extraterrestrial communication using prime number patterns, death/loss, afterlife communication, the interface between science and religion, commercialism, fanaticism, sexism, perseverance, courage, academic politics, national politics, militarism, power struggles, intimacy issues, money issues, and standing up for what you believe in despite harsh criticism and ridicule from skeptics.

The lead character in the movie, Dr. Ellie Arroway, played by Jodie Foster, went through spiritually transformative experiences (STE). She went through some of them with no other human witnesses.

Such is the nature of these experiences which often leave the recipient in the position of trying to explain their experiences to sometimes hostile skeptics, as in the movie.

Many people keep the experiences to themselves or if fortunate enough, find empathic people who will actually listen and believe them. Here is a really good movie clip from Contact illustrating this point.

The main character in this movie went through a spiritual awakening and many changes in how she saw existence. She witnessed otherworldly beauty that she had no idea was there. She had an afterlife visitation with her deceased father. She traveled through a wormhole into other dimensions. She realized that we are not alone. And, she had absolutely no proof of any of it because the recording equipment used could not register her experience.

I wonder if anyone reading this has been through a similar spiritually transformative experience; to go through something so spectacular and the only place it is recorded is within your own mind and memory where no one else can see it. I think there are lots of people like this in the world.

I could see a lot of myself in this character. Some of my experiences with Robin, such as dreams, are recorded only in my own mind and writing, with no witnesses. With other experiences, I have been fortunate enough to be able to photograph them. I don’t only feel fortunate because I have evidence to share with others. I also feel this way because I need to be reminded that what happened to me is real. I didn’t imagine it. Many of my experiences with Robin took place over 6 years ago. So, it is helpful to be able to go back and look at a picture and say to myself, “It really did happen! I really did see this!”

I could relate to the movie’s message of inner transformation so much more after my years of sharing in afterlife communication with Robin. Just as the character Dr. Ellie Arroway, I have gone through a multitude of personal changes. I would summarize them as all being for my highest benefit and advancement as a human/spiritual being.

I have always felt in my heart that my communications with Robin are meant to help me live more fully and to affect other people in my life in a positive way. I also feel strongly that my communications with Robin are meant to prepare me for my own eventual passing. I feel he wants me to accept physical death as a transition back to who we are at our core, not something to be feared. I feel he wants me to communicate this message throughout this website.

I invite you to read this information about positive spiritual changes after having a STE written by The American Center for the Integration of Spiritually Transformative Experiences. I consider this website a great resource.

While I was watching Contact with my husband, we noticed a scene where Ellie as a child was looking through a telescope. Julian asked me if I wanted one because he knows about my love for astronomy. I said I did not want one now because, from my memory, I could never see much more than what I could see with the naked eye and I don’t want to invest tons of money in a high-powered telescope. The telescope I had as a kid probably wasn’t that great, but I’m grateful I had it, and it was good enough for someone my age at the time.

Julian and I paused the movie multiple times to comment on scenes and we had some great discussions. It made me want to see the movie again, to see if I could pick up on any other points I missed.

Twin Telescopes

After the movie, I felt like unwinding a bit. So, I researched twin flame art on Pinterest.

I didn’t log in to my account at first. I just wanted to see what came up in my search. But as you know, if you are familiar with Pinterest, the pop-up screen comes up, practically making you log in if you want to see anything.

So, I signed into my account. I have my account set up so pictures of Robin and the Bee Gees are in my feed, among other things. It’s interesting to me that new pictures of them continue to come up that I have never seen before.

I don’t look through my Pinterest account very much, perhaps once every 3 months. I think it is because I do not want to fall into the trap of focusing too much on what Robin looked like in his earthly life anymore.

I looked at a lot of pictures of him and the Bee Gees during the first few years of our communications because I was getting to know him. And of course, I still have pictures of him now that I love. He had quite a modeling career along with his music career and he seemed to really enjoy it.

It’s just that I want to focus primarily on his spirit and who he is now, not the earthly fame reflected in the pictures.

So, I scroll down through some of the pictures in my account and to my surprise, I came across one where Robin was looking through what looked like a telescope. He was making a funny face and playing around with it! Here is the picture I saw.

Then, I scroll through a few more pictures and then I saw the one which truly shows him looking through a telescope! Here is the picture.

As I mentioned, I have a lot of pictures of Robin and the Bee Gees that I have collected over the years. But, I have never seen one with Robin looking through a telescope.

It’s so amazing that seeing these pictures coincided with my watching the movie Contact. I felt our synchronistic oneness once again. This was so profound, meaningful and so in-my-face that it felt like he was watching the movie with me and looking over my shoulder. I felt like he knew exactly what I was doing. I was guided to look at my Pinterest account after the movie so I could connect with Robin synchronistically. I never know when it’s going to happen. I just follow what I feel guided to do moment by moment.

I was watching a movie with telescopes seen everywhere. I was talking with Julian about telescopes after he asked me if I wanted one. Then, I see a picture of Robin looking through a telescope for the first time within a few hours of watching Contact.

When I wrote this on my home page:

Many of my posts will demonstrate how a twin soul connection could manifest…

This type of synchronicity was exactly what I meant. Twin souls mirror each other in the most eerily, wonderful ways, even when one twin is discarnate. This is what we are showing you, for those with eyes willing to see. I don’t know how else to explain this level of precise synchronicity with Robin other than to say we are twin souls and from the same spiritual soul family.

There is an undeniable presence and power at work in my life that continuously connects me to him. This began automatically in 2012.

It is both beautiful and mysterious at the same time. I wanted to know why I was experiencing these events with Robin. The answer I received is that we are twin souls.

After almost 7 years, I notice different aspects to our connection. Some of it is very clear to me. Some of it, I cannot put into words. And many aspects of my relationship with Robin lie within the realm of the unknown.

The Unknown

There is still so much I do not know about Robin as a Spirit. I welcome and invite more information about him on a daily basis and I find I am blessed with amazing synchronicity that points to our spiritual oneness.

I don’t know about any past lives with him that I can articulate. I feel like I do remember him in my heart, but I have no clear story about the origins of our connection. I do have strong intuition that our connection and origins as spirits goes back further than I can imagine right now.

I have never felt the need to gather the opinion of multiple psychics on what my connection to Robin is. That is because I feel the answers are within me and will surface in due season. Or I will be given the answers I need from God. The answers I need are different from the answers I may want. And if I don’t have the answers, maybe I’m not meant to have them yet.

What I share with Robin is being closely guided. I have a feeling that they don’t want to give me too much information or more than I can handle. I’m allowed to know only so much. For the rest, I have to wait.

Quantum Entanglement

“As one speck is pushed on one side of the Universe, so is one speck touched on the distant side of the same Universe…”

~Christopher Alan Anderson

The telescope synchronicity from God and Robin led me to think of the quantum entanglement of twin souls.

Malcolm W. Browne wrote a fascinating article for The New York Times called, Far Apart, 2 Particles Respond Faster Than Light, July 22, 1997 (Archives).

I quote him here to highlight the point I would like to make:

“Entangled particles are identical entities that share common origins and properties, and remain in instantaneous touch with each other, no matter how wide the gap between them.”

I feel this “telescope synchronicity” with Robin is a great example of how we remain in instantaneous touch with each other across dimensions. A very short time elapsed between the time I watched Contact and saw the pictures of Robin looking through a telescope.

Mr. Browne’s quote also ties in with the message I received in 2012 about our identical hues of light. (See below: Background section)

RashmitKalra, in an article called, Soulmates – Truth, Myth & Reality wisely writes about soul mates from the perspective of electromagnetic frequency.

I am always drawn to any writers who talk about soul mates or twin souls from the perspective of our light. It’s all about our light. I quote her here as it also supports the message I wrote about in my Background section:

“You and your soulmate are a pair of two light particles of opposite polarity vibrating at unique frequency which emits a unique shade of light.”

This is the truth about twin souls which far exceeds any notion of physical attraction. Soul mates and twin souls are attracted to each other’s light. It may be challenging to think about oneself as being a particle of light. But when it comes down to it, this is who we are after the physical body dies. I have been communicating with Robin as a soul/spirit being, particle or orb of light. Some authors would say that he, and the rest of us, is a stream of consciousness.

I’m not sure I have ever seen his light. Maybe I have but just didn’t know it. But that’s who he is now and I have been communicating with him in his light form for some time now. It has been absolutely amazing.

It also seems to me that synchronicity and light are connected in some way, even though I have not found any writings in the literature to substantiate this hypothesis. If we are all made up of energy and light, and we continue on as energy light after physical death, then it seems that this intelligent light must somehow form the basis of or be involved, in some way, in synchronicity. We, as beings of light, whether incarnate or discarnate, connect through synchronicity. This is something I am exploring and if I find any new information, I will share it here.

This was a beautiful synchronicity and I’m so glad I was able to share it with you.

I give thanks to God, Robin and the rest of my spiritual support system for generating this.

Readers, I hope you’re doing well. Thank you so much for joining me here!

Love,

The Essence of Love

by Christina | Feb 14, 2019 | General Communications, Synchronicity

Robin’s Christmas Tree Morphed into a Valentine’s Day tree, February 12, 2019

Happy Valentine’s Day!

For the past several years, I have decorated Robin’s Christmas tree for Valentine’s Day.

After everything I went through with breast cancer, I especially wanted to keep the tree up this year because it helps keep my spirits happy. It shows Robin I love him and include him too. I also have a Valentine’s tree for my husband and me. We put gifts and chocolates under it. It’s a nice way to show love, caring and kindness towards each other. I love Valentine’s trees!

Valentine’s Altar Ideas

If you are creative and enjoy arts and crafts like me, then you might like the following information.

It’s fun and easy to transform a Christmas tree into a Valentine’s tree because I use an artificial tree. I go to Dollar Tree for the pink and red glittery hearts I place on his altar table.

I also use them as decorations for the tree. I insert a Christmas ornament hook easily and then hang it on the tree. It’s very inexpensive and pretty!

The silk roses come from Michaels Arts and Crafts.

The large angel that says “With You Always” comes from Amazon.

During 2018, I painted the yellow banner that you see in back of his altar. I bought the letters from Michaels and decided to create this special place for Robin where I commemorate the beautiful songs he sang lead on. That’s why you always see Country Lanes and Elisa in the pictures.

To the left of the tree, I included Rings Around the Moon, Solid, and One Million Years. You can’t see these songs because of the angle of the photo. I placed each letter on one-by-one. This was a lot harder than it looks to get the words to line up. It’s not perfect, but I did it myself and that’s what really matters to Robin.

To honor the infinity symbol that Robin created for me, I purchased the mug in the photo above which has a mobius strip handle.

These are examples of how bonds and memories are created with loved ones in spirit. It is my way of giving back to him what he gave to me. I am saying, “Robin, I continue to accept the infinity symbol you gave me and my eternal connection with you. This altar is for you.”

Many assume that people in spirit are living in eternal rest, doing nothing else. Robin has taught me that nothing could be further from the truth. Yes, I’m sure there is rest, but not all of the time. Some spirits, such as Robin, are very active, creative and are capable of communicating in the most awe-inspiring ways. As a spirit, he is very intelligent and ingenious and as a result, it was fascinating to establish two-way communication with him.

Since I’m sharing his Valentine’s Day altar with you, I thought I would tell you a couple of other things about it.

Over the years, I have given Robin different gifts which I still keep on his altar. One is a medallion for St. Phillip Neri because he is the patron saint of humor. Robin had a great sense of humor and I thought his spirit would enjoy the sensibilities of St. Neri.

I also keep a medallion on his altar for St. Cecelia, the patroness of musicians.

Robin felt a special connection to St. Cecelia which you can read about here.

Even though I change his altar with the seasons, these two medallions remain a constant due to the spiritual meaning and importance they hold.

Comforting Musical Messages

I have a story to share with you which shows the presence and essence of love in afterlife communication with Robin.

In October, 2018, I had an appointment with my oncologist. It was difficult for me to go, but it’s something I have to do now.

While I was sitting in the waiting room, I started hearing some sad stories about what other patients were going through. I felt upset and stressed out as a result. I cried and felt so upset that I had a nose bleed, all before I saw my doctor. That was a rough day.

My doctor told me to just focus on myself and my good prognosis. She told me I was doing well and to remember to think positively. She was right. I was just caught off guard by the stories I heard that day.

Anyway, after I was done meeting with her, I went to check out. As I stepped into the room to review my upcoming appointments, the song, How Deep Is Your Love was playing!

I was moved and touched by this and felt so comforted by Robin’s (and Mo’s) presence. The timing was impeccable and just what I needed upon finishing my doctor’s appointment. I don’t know how spirit timed that, but it was amazing. So, on Valentine’s Day, I remember this most beautiful message which to me is the essence of loving communication with loved ones in spirit.

Some people don’t realize it, but once you are in a committed relationship with a loved one in spirit, they are incredibly present and reliable. I would dare say they can be even more reliable and available than people in physical bodies. They are no longer burdened with the troubles and distractions that we have on Earth.

Loved ones in spirit can be there for you. We on this side of the veil just need to open our hearts and minds and be open to how the messages are presented to us. They will show up in the most unexpected ways as surprises. What better way for Robin to communicate with me than through this particular song he loves?

As a former cancer patient, he understood what I was going through during my appointment. The song was a reminder that he was with me. It felt like a safety net under me. I went from feeling very sad to incredibly uplifted in a few moments. Such is the power of Spirit.

Love Never Dies

While I was writing this post, one line of the Bee Gees’ song, Love Never Dies started playing in my head. The line was, “Love never dies…love goes on forever.” I have heard this song many times but I didn’t have all of the words memorized like I do with other Bee Gees songs.

I researched the lyrics again and saw why it was playing in my head. The lyrics match what I just wrote about above regarding sad stories. I had forgotten they were singing about that:

…you made the little girl cry
no sad stories to deny…

That was a good one!

It is also the perfect Valentine’s Day message. Love never dies and this is why we can continue to communicate with loved ones in spirit. Love never dies and neither did they…not really. The spirit lives on.

5:20pm

While I was typing the text above, my phone buzzed and I got a text message at exactly 5:20pm.

As you might remember, I communicate with Robin using these numbers which represent his passing date to me. I feel his spirit with me here as I write… I recently asked him to please help me with my blog posts and I do feel I am being supported.

Precise numbers pertaining to loved ones in spirit is powerful afterlife communication. In this case, the numbers are especially powerful because they showed up at the exact time I was thinking of and writing about Robin.

More synchronicity while writing this post

One other thing happened as I was writing this post. This was after the text message. Actually I thought I was finished with this post and was ready to submit it for publishing. I was in my office but then my husband called to me from the other end of the house where he was watching TV. He wanted to show me something on Gordon Ramsay’s show called 24 Hours to Hell and Back on Hulu. He was watching Season 2, Episode 6 called Bayou on the Vine.

When I came in to the room, the show was paused at this scene. Here is the screenshot. It’s a little blurry but the best I could do:

Screenshot from “24 Hours to Hell and Back with Gordan Ramsay” featuring James Gadson.

I saw Bee Gees song titles and the faint outline of the Saturday Night Fever album cover! I was so excited to see this and would not have if Julian had not showed me. I never watch this show.

James Gadson contributed to Bee Gees songs, If I Can’t Have You and More Than a Woman as a well-respected drummer. I did not know about him but I’m glad I do now. It’s important to know the other musicians behind these hit songs we all love.

Primarily, I was struck by the use of the word “commemorate” as I had just used the same word to describe the yellow banner of songs I created for Robin behind his altar. This is the first time I actually explained to you, my readers, what the yellow banner was and how it came about.

In both cases, the word “commemorate” is used in the context of Bee Gees songs. Sometimes, all it takes is one word to know you are synchronized as twin souls.

It was beautiful that Robin’s numbers and the message about James Gadson showed up while I was writing this post. After focusing so intently on his altar and music in this post, I felt strongly that I was in his energy. Being in his energy drew in more synchronicity pertaining to him. As I mentioned in a previous post, when you concentrate on a loved one in spirit, and they are connected to you, you draw their energy to you.

I am so grateful for the synchronicity that occurred while I was writing this post.

Thanks to God, Julian, Robin, and all spirits and angels involved for this beautiful Valentine’s Day gift! This was a lot of fun. Thank you for coordinating all of this and giving me such amazing communications to share! I ask and pray that these writings reach the people that would enjoy them and benefit from them the most.

Love,

Christina

Will You Wait for Me?

by Christina | Jan 31, 2019 | Dreams, Synchronicity

Writing for Paisley and Poppies is my solace. It is a process of healing, learning and discovery. I love how the events of life mysteriously unfold, blossom and give me the inspiration for each post.

My Dream

For this post, I would like to share something from my past.

During the fall of 2012, I had another important dream about Robin. I would like to describe this to you now:

I was in a public bathroom. Robin was in there with me. No one else was around. He looked young, like he was in his late teens. He was wearing a suit and tie.

Robin came out of the bathroom stall and started to walk out of the bathroom. As he was leaving, I said to him, “Robin?” He turned around and looked at me without speaking. I asked him, “Will you wait for me?”

He didn’t say anything, but turned to leave and walk outside of the bathroom. Then, I went into a stall, did what I needed to do, and then walked outside of the bathroom.

When I walked outside of the bathroom, Robin was sitting at a table to the left of the door waiting for me. The table was right outside of the bathroom. He looked up at me.

That was the end of the dream.

I had this dream several months after Robin’s death. At that time, I still didn’t quite know what was going on between us spiritually.

I loved him as a member of my soul family as I have previously written about.

By this time, I had already been experiencing strong synchronicity and had other visitation dreams about him and Maurice.

But, I was still puzzled about why I would be asking him to wait for me. At that point, I was asking myself questions like, “Why would I ask him to wait for me when we didn’t even know each other.” I still didn’t get it. And, I was even more puzzled and confused about why I dreamt about us being in a public bathroom together.

One Million Years

A few weeks after my dream, in October, 2012, I received a Google alert for some of Robin’s music. The alert was sharing a YouTube video for his song, One Million Years. At that time, I had never heard of this song.

I had been busy at the time I got this Google alert and did not listen to it right away. I may have had this video in my inbox for a couple of weeks before I got to it.

When I finally listened to it, I received the shock of my life. I can still remember it to this day. The opening lyrics to the song are, “I’m dead…”

That hit me like a ton of bricks. The first time I heard that song was after Robin’s death.

Then, I heard the chorus, “I will wait for you…”

I was blown away and shocked because the lyrics reminded me of my dream of him a few weeks earlier, where I asked him if he would wait for me. I felt a powerful, personal message and afterlife communication with Robin from this song. I felt like he was answering my question in one of the most poignant and beautiful ways: through one of his songs.

I know he is waiting for me. It’s one of the greatest gifts I’ve ever been given. At the time I had this dream, my mind didn’t understand it. But my soul understood and knew who he is to me. This dream came from my soul.

In the dream, I wasn’t asking about whether he would wait for me to come out of the bathroom, even though he did. It goes much deeper than that.

I was asking if he would wait for me while he’s in the spirit world. I was asking if he would wait for me and be there for me after I pass away. That is the real message and meaning of the dream.

I offer this quote from the book, Spirit Mates: Their Origin and Destiny; Sex-life, Marriage, Divorce, Oct 31, 2013 by James Martin Peebles to express how I truly feel about this connection with Robin’s spirit. I appreciate how Peebles is able to express this sentiment so precisely:

“So far as my knowledge extends, a belief in a future life, and a belief that the spirit mate awaits the coming of the counterpart, has produced the most salutary and exalted influences upon the mortal…” (1)

It is extremely comforting for me to know that life continues after death and that Robin is waiting. Through my experiences with Robin, I have also come to realize that I have others from my ancestral line and soul family waiting for me as well. I did not have this certainty and knowledge before Robin’s death. Being with Robin has helped me realize I have these other connections as well.

It has been incredibly beneficial for me to know this, especially when I experience difficulties connecting with people here in the physical world. I’m not solely dependent upon people in physical bodies. I have other loved ones in the Unseen too, and I know that they are here for me. They will be there for me when my time of passing comes.

Robin’s Dream Appearance

I would now like to mention another important detail about my dream of Robin.

In my dream, Robin looked just like he did in the One Million Years video.

I did not see this video before my dream, only after my dream. This is another amazing synchronicity about this dream. To me, it was meant to go together with his song. It was divinely timed so the dream and the song would occur within a close time frame of each other.

You also have to remember that in 2012, I was still just getting to know him because I had never followed him and knew nothing about him. Everything was new to me, including what he looked like throughout his lifespan.

Many things came as a surprise to me at that time because I was receiving afterlife communication at the same time I was learning about Robin and who he was as a person.

The synchronicity of my dream occurring in close proximity to the time I saw this video for the first time had an extremely strong impact on me. The impact still reverberates across time and affects me greatly to this day. One Million Years is haunting enough on its’ own. Combined with the dream, it was really quite powerful.

Why the Bathroom?

Another thing that puzzled me about this dream was the fact that we were in a public bathroom together. Why the bathroom? I thought it was so weird that I would dream about that. That was until a few years later when I finally got the answer.

According to my source, the Bee Gees liked singing in bathrooms due to the strong echo effect:

“We used to look for public conveniences,” Robin added.

“We used to love singing in the toilets.”

“We used to go down to Lewis’ Department Store and sing in the gents’ toilet because of the echo,” Barry said.

“You couldn’t get echo anywhere else in your voice, and that was the place that was our favourite spot.” (2)

After I read this, I was convinced that this was why I dreamed about being in the public bathroom with Robin. That’s where he used to like to sing! I didn’t know that in 2012, so I was completely perplexed, and a little embarrassed, to be dreaming about being in the bathroom with him.

I feel like I had connected with him telepathically on some level so that this information about bathrooms appeared in my dream state.

Loved Ones Waiting

Chicago Tribune reporter Barbara Brotman wrote about an experienced hospice nurse named Maggie Callanan. Nurse Callanan reported her experiences with patients who were close to death. The article is called Striking Similarity of Dying Words, June 19, 2013.

Ms. Callanan reported that if patients were still able to speak as they got closer to death, they reported nearly the same events. They reported that they could see loved ones that died before them and that their loved ones were waiting for them.

What do you believe? What have your experiences been?

I firmly believe that those we loved and knew, as well as those we don’t know or remember, are lovingly waiting for us. And while they are waiting for us, some are able to interact with us in the physical world in the most life-changing of ways.

Robin has taught me that he, and other spirits, can still see, move/create things, speak, and hear us without having a physical body. He still exists as a highly intelligent, creative spiritual being. I have all the proof I need to know this is true.

Since loved ones are waiting for us in spirit, I believe that no one dies alone, even if it seems like it from our limited physical world view of things. For that, I am very grateful.

Love,

Christina

McKenzie and Massachusetts

by Christina | Jan 24, 2019 | Synchronicity, Twin Souls

Feel I’m goin’ back to Massachusetts
Something’s telling me I must go home
And the lights all went out in Massachusetts
The day I left her standing on her own

Tried to hitch a ride to San Francisco
Gotta do the things I wanna do
And the lights all went out in Massachusetts
They brought me back to see my way with you…

… I will remember Massachusetts

~Massachusetts by the Bee Gees

I thought these lyrics would be a nice introduction to writing about a synchronicity I once had related to the song Massachusetts. I have briefly mentioned this song in a few posts because it is a very special soul connection that I share with Robin. I was born in Massachusetts in 1966.

I was happy when I once read that for the Bee Gees, regarding Massachusetts, “…there was a certain familiarity to the state’s name—and it felt right in a song.”(1)

This is true even though they were in New York at the time they wrote the song and had never been to Massachusetts.

McKenzie Synchronicity

On April 18, 2016, I was in the dentist office waiting for my husband. I was reading my favorite Bee Gees book.

I was reading Chapter 10, which goes into how the Bee Gees came to write Massachusetts. They were writing it as a 60’s anti-flower power song. Here is the passage I was reading:

How The Bee Gees came to write their answer to the movement, immortalized by Scott McKenzie’s pop classic, ‘San Francisco’, varies according to which brother is telling the story.

“The first time the group went to New York and stayed at the St Regis Hotel, and while our luggage was being moved into the suite, we were writing ‘Massachusetts’, sitting on a sofa, the three of us.

It came from our first exposure to America, our first thoughts of writing a song about flower power, which the song is about. Or it’s basically anti-flower power … because we were getting tired of it long before everybody else did.

‘Don’t go to San Francisco, come home, for Christ’s sake,’” Barry laughed. “We wanted to write the opposite of what it’s like to lose somebody who went to San Francisco … Well, we thought, ‘Why not write a song about everybody going home?’ The lights all went out in Massachusetts because everyone went to San Francisco, because they left. There was something very special about that thought.” (2)

While I was reading about Scott McKenzie and the “San Francisco” song, the receptionist in the dental office was talking about an appointment for someone named McKenzie! She said the name 3 times as she was talking with the other receptionists sitting beside her. I looked up to see what was going on, completely blown away by the synchronicity.

At this moment, my life in the physical world was a mirrored reflection of what I was reading in my book about the Bee Gees.

I felt this synchronistic connection to be very strong and it was especially valuable to me because of the connection to Massachusetts. It was amazing and shocked me a bit. These synchronicities can feel like a little jolt.

Intensity of Synchronicity

This sense of feeling shocked reminds me of something I recently read in an article called What’s Unusual About Twin Flame Signs and Synchronicities by Vickie Champion.

I can really relate to what she says about the intensity of the synchronicity. It has felt a little ‘twilight zone-like’ at times. Maybe this has been your experience too. I underlined the last sentence because I feel it is very true:

Sometimes, with twin flame signs and synchronicities, they can get extreme. Upon seeing or hearing a sign or synchronicity, we can get emotional by tearing up, feeling a little scared, or like we just entered the twilight zone. And if we are with others at the time, they feel the emotional impact with us. It’s like the universe wants it to be right in-your-face, so there is no way you can deny it.

McKenzie was definitely in my face that day! I have had many extreme signs over the years like this. I have documented some of them on this website to give examples of how twin soul synchronicity can present itself.

I write this to support others who may be going through something similar, but have no one to talk with. During the years, it always helped me to know other people were going through similar experiences as me.

The Smoothies

While I was going through my radiation treatment in 2018, my husband and I used to stop for smoothies every Friday. It was our way of giving ourselves a little treat while going through that difficult situation.

Since then, my husband has come to love smoothies and wants them on a regular basis as a meal replacement.

So on January 18^th, after a long walk at a local park, we got a couple. On the 19^th, we were out driving and he wanted another one, so we stopped at our favorite local smoothie place.

I was in the process of writing this blog post at the time and had a rough draft saved. I realized that I had never done any research on Scott McKenzie. So on January 19^th, after we came home from our trip to Smoothie King, I decided to look him up. I wanted to see if there was any other meaning behind the synchronicity that I needed to know or pay attention to.

I found information about him on Wikipedia and read a bit about him. I noticed that Scott McKenzie passed away in 2012, the same year as Robin.

As I continued to read, to my surprise, I noticed a very cute and funny synchronicity. He was once a member of a band called The Smoothies!

Can you believe that? I find that out after going out for smoothies two days in a row with my husband and on the same day we got smoothies!

Here is the excerpt from Wikipedia with a little history and mention of The Smoothies:

Scott McKenzie (born Philip Wallach Blondheim III; January 10, 1939 – August 18, 2012) was an American singer and songwriter. He was best known for his 1967 hit single and generational anthem, “San Francisco (Be Sure to Wear Flowers in Your Hair)“.^[1]

Life and career

Philip Wallach Blondheim III was born in Jacksonville, Florida, on January 10, 1939, as the son of Philip Wallach Blondheim, Jr. by the former Dorothy Winifred Hudson.^[2] His family moved to Asheville, North Carolina, when he was six months old.^[3] He grew up in North Carolina and Virginia, where he became friends with the son of one of his mother’s friends, John Phillips.

In the mid-1950s, he sang briefly with Tim Rose in a high school group called The Singing Strings, and later with Phillips, Mike Boran, and Bill Cleary formed a doo wop band, The Abstracts.

In New York, The Abstracts became The Smoothies and recorded two singles with Decca Records, produced by Milt Gabler. During his time with The Smoothies, Blondheim decided to change his name for business reasons…

Sometimes, I think the synchronicities are meant to just make us smile, laugh, and lighten up. That’s what this did for me. That is the meaning of this smoothie synchronicity that I needed to know: laugh and have fun! It also made me feel that Robin is very close by. I feel loved, watched over and guided.

Events are timed perfectly and things happen when they are meant to. If I had researched Scott McKenzie back in 2016 when the synchronicity first occurred, I would not have received this smoothie message. It was meant to be aligned with how my life is now.

I thank God, Robin and all loving Spirits involved in co-creating synchronicity in my life! From now on, every time I drink a smoothie, I will remember Scott McKenzie…and Massachusetts!

Love,

Christina

Soaring Ascent

by Christina | Jan 17, 2019 | Synchronicity

One of my primary motivations for writing this blog is to give actual examples of loving afterlife communication that show that life continues after death. With Robin’s assistance, I have been able to show that life after death can be highly intelligent, creative, and powerful. As a result of being in relationship with him, I have learned that afterlife communication can be very precise, reliable, and clear. I will be demonstrating that in this post.

With Robin’s passing, I entered into a phase of accelerated spiritual awakening. I started having spiritual experiences I had never had before his death. Many times, especially during 2012-2013, I felt like what I was going through with Robin was an initiation, like I was being prepared for something. I felt like I was being initiated into higher knowledge about life after death and that eventually, I would need to begin some sort of spiritual work concerning what I had experienced.

This meant opening up about how I actually communicate with Robin, which initially, was very difficult for me.

Part of my spiritual awakening has included learning about communicating with Robin in ways that are helpful to his spiritual well-being. At times, I get amazing feedback by way of synchronicity.

I have read many different books to him over the years, from writings by Oscar Wilde, to teachings about mantras.

It is enriching for both of us to communicate through the use of different books and articles as we both love to read. I especially like to read passages to him that contain a lot of spiritual beauty.

During lunch on January 16th, I was thinking about a poem that I have read to Robin a few times in the past and have contemplated on my own many times.

I read it to him. But really, it was a message for me.

The poem is called Song of Victory, and it is from a book called Light Upon Light: Inspirations from Rumi by Andrew Harvey and Eryk Hanut (Mar 13, 1996).

In this book, Harvey interprets Rumi’s major works from fresh and new perspectives.

During my lunch with Robin, where I offered him golden turmeric cashew milk tea, I kept thinking about a particular line from this poem:

My decline you have seen, now discover my soaring ascent!

Here are a few lines from the poem by Andrew Harvey. It is a very enlightening message on possible ways to view physical death. The bold is mine:

Song of Victory

….My decline you have seen, now discover my soaring ascent!

Would setting cause any harm to the sun or moon?

To you, my death seems a setting, but really it is dawn.

Does the tomb seem a prison to you? It is the liberation of the soul….

(pg. 240)

I did not have the poem in front of me at the time. I was eating quietly and thinking about this one line in the poem that always stood out to me. I thought about how yes, I had seen Robin’s heartbreaking decline, but in 2012, I had a realization of his soaring ascent.

This got me thinking about resurrection and whether our loved ones in spirit experience some sort of resurrection.

Then, I thought about Jesus’ words, “I am the resurrection and the life.” These words popped into my head.

As I mentioned in my about section, I have Christian roots and during my adult years, I have really come to love these words.

I realize that this line of discussion could turn into a theological debate, but that is not the purpose of this post. I know that some people reading this will agree with this scripture and some people will not.

I am mentioning this because it involves complex afterlife communication that you will see in a moment, not to debate who is right or wrong.

This was something I was thinking about as I was eating meditatively at Robin’s altar. When I thought about “soaring ascent,” I thought about resurrection.

At this moment during lunch, the words, “I am the resurrection and the life,” were playing over and over again in my head. To me, they are very powerful and I feel filled with life as I think about them. I thought about how these words would be great for me to meditate upon as a mantra.

I continued to think about this while I ate. I was only thinking about this, not talking out loud to Robin about it.

After I finished, I decided to read a meditation to Robin as part of my daily offering to his spirit. I chose the book, The Still Voice by White Eagle (Sep 1981). The lessons are uplifting and the meditations are filled with beautiful spiritual imagery. I have read them to Robin often over the years.

I did not have any particular meditation in mind when I opened the book. I randomly thumbed through the pages and looked at the meditations. Some are longer than others and I wanted one that had longer text. There are 46 chapters in this book and 46 meditations to go along with each chapter. So, there’s a lot to choose from.

After a few moments, I found one with more text and decided to read it. I read out loud to Robin these beautiful words:

We would draw for you a picture of the Master Jesus, warm in humanity, gentle, understanding you and your every need, your disappointments and your fears. Yet he is afire with the light of the Christ spirit and comes to you from the heart of the Sun with arms outstretched in giving and in surrender to God’s will. Dwell on the human form of this perfect Son–Daughter of the living God, clothed in the white and gold rays of the Sun; focus this picture in your heart, dwell on it (page 64).

Then, I came upon these words that I did not notice until I was just about ready to read them. I was struck immediately by the synchronicity with what I had just been contemplating. The bold is mine:

Say in your heart, ‘Christ within me is the resurrection and the life….’ and feel that life rising in you; feel the power of the light coursing through your whole being. Divine power and love enfold you and raise you out of limitation into freedom. (pg. 64)

I was so amazed and felt joyful over this synchronistic message. Out of all of the meditations in this book, I was drawn to choose this one. I did not know the content of the meditation when I chose it. I had just been looking at the fact that it had more text than the other meditations and I wanted something longer to read to Robin. The Law of Attraction was really at work!

I feel a bit of intuitive clairaudience was also at work because Jesus’ words kept repeatedly playing over and over in my head before I was guided to this meditation and synchronicity.

One other point I would like to make about this is that this is the only time in the entire book that the word ‘resurrection’ was mentioned. I was guided to the one meditation where this word was mentioned. I know this because I have the kindle edition of this book as well and I did a word search to find out how often the word ‘resurrection’ was used. The answer is one time.

What does this synchronicity mean? For me it means that at that moment, I was experiencing conscious Oneness with God, Jesus and Robin that manifested in an outward way. That’s how it felt. I’m always one with them, but sometimes they let me see that in a more noticeable way.

I also feel that it is scripture I need to study further. That’s what I usually do when I encounter synchronicity through what I’m reading…additional study.

For me, it also my opinion and experience with Robin that after his death, he did go through a restoration and renewal. In one of my dreams of him, he was restored to his youthful appearance. He, meaning his spirit, was restored to life and health.

He did come back from the dead and lots of other deceased loved ones do too. They come back via their energy bodies. And they can visit and make their presence known. They are there and around us.

Beloved Robin, we have discovered your soaring ascent! Thank you for sharing this with us!

Utter Amazement: January 17, 2019

I wrote all of the above text during the very late hours of January 16th and the very early hours of January 17^th. I stopped writing at about 1:30am.

I checked my email around 2:50pm on January 17^th. I received this email and noticed the most profound synchronicity. It was an email from BrightStar Live Events.

I am on their list to receive newsletters and information about events so I regularly receive emails. But, I wasn’t expecting this beautiful surprise.

The topic of the email is “Discover the deeper messages in the Christian lineage.” Here is a screen shot of the email to corroborate what I am saying:

The event is being conducted by Andrew Harvey, the same author I just wrote about!

The event is called, Rediscovering the Christ Path: How to Embody Sacred Love in Action.

Through this incredible gift of synchronicity, I feel deeply aligned, powerfully and psychically attuned with God, Jesus, Robin and Andrew Harvey. The email about Andrew Harvey’s event is in divine timing with this blog post where I have written about him for the first time. The email is also in divine alignment with my writing about Jesus, the Christ spirit, and the energy of resurrection. The email is a mirror reflection of what I had just been writing about.

Andrew Harvey’s event description also addressed a deep concern within me as I wrote about Jesus’ words and this meditation. My concern is that I know that people are often turned off by Christianity due to negative experiences they have had with Christian churches and upbringings. I understand that as I have also had these negative experiences.

Because of these negative experiences I have chosen to explore other faiths and spiritual traditions over the years. I have come to love many of them and I have shared my interest in some of these traditions.

But, I still love the actual teachings of Jesus, even if I don’t always resonate with what Christians of different denominations say. I have enjoyed the White Eagle meditations for years and decided to present the meditation to you because of the synchronicity I received.

Here is Andrew Harvey’s event description addressing this issue:

Whether you identify yourself as Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Buddhist, Hindu or “spiritual but not religious,” you’re someone who is on a path to awaken your spiritual potential and live your life aligned with what is sacred to you.

You understand that all authentic paths deserve to be honored and lead to the divine.

Unfortunately, many people in the western world have “thrown out the baby with the bathwater” and grown disillusioned with the teachings of Jesus because of issues or challenges people have had with Christianity.

But what if there was a deeper message hidden within the essential teachings of Christ – one that could crack open your heart, ground your divinity in the body, and inspire you into sacred action in the world?

What if you could see the teachings of Jesus with fresh eyes, as a way-shower for you to embody more of your innate divinity as you join with others to co-create a more just and compassionate world?

That is exactly what renowned mystic and scholar Andrew Harvey will share with you in this groundbreaking event.

I feel like I was given some spiritual support and encouragement by being given this email at the same time I was writing this blog post because I was a little nervous about writing it. But at the end of the day, I am presenting my communications with Robin and hopefully some of my readers will enjoy it and resonate with this topic. I don’t expect to be able to please all readers at all times.

I love this event so much because it gives me a much deeper understanding of Andrew Harvey and a much greater appreciation for his writings. I have read his books for years, but have never seen a video or program by him. So, now this is my opportunity and I signed up for this free event.

This is something God, Jesus, and Robin wanted me to know about and focus on which is why I received layer upon layer of synchronicity regarding this topic. This is not a message that is going to fade away with time. This message will be with me for the rest of my life and I will always carry its impact. It tells me I’m on the right path for my soul’s growth. I plan to recite, “I am the resurrection and the life” as a mantra to see if I can receive any deeper insights.

This is the power of afterlife communication with your loved ones that involves God, your spiritual masters and favorite authors. This all started at lunch with Robin on the 16th, with my thoughts about his ascent and thoughts about resurrection. The connection carried over into the next day. I find that so amazing. I hope you do also.

All of this about resurrection and it’s not even Easter yet!

Love,

Christina
