As we sit quietly and peacefully in the darkness, white candles lit, we wait expectantly for our departed loved ones to once more join us. As our spirits reach out across the veil, our light serves as a beacon, illuminating the path that the discarnate spirits of loved ones can follow to join us in celebration of eternal love. Now the way is made easy to enjoy the company of those with whom we share a never ending bond. By any name, this night and tomorrow create a portal through which spirits can communicate as we embrace each other in the energy of love. Namaste!

Tomorrow night and the following day, the veil is its thinnest, merely an etheric mist between the realm of the spirit incarnate and the spirit discarnate. We can prepare ourselves for this period of clear communication and interaction by purifying our environments. Try to decrease clutter, recycle newspapers, make sure everything is clean and tidy. The less physical disorder exists to confuse your mind, the easier it will be to perceive those in spirit around you. Different cultures adhere to different rituals to entice spirit to visit. The easiest course of action is to light white candles, turn off the lights, and sit in a space of welcoming love. As we open ourselves to the possibility, spirit finds its way to us. Namaste!

When those we love pass to the other side of the veil, our sense of loss can overwhelm us and impede our progress on our physical life’s path. When we become overwrapped by grief over what is in truth the illusion of loss, we can lose our way and dedicate our energies to sorrow. When we realize that the spirit of our loved one continues to exist and is available to communicate with, we can benefit from inviting them to visit us to commune and share love and the affection of spirit. Sometimes, the closeness available to spirit is even greater than that when spirits are harbored within the physical. Open your spirit self to the spirits of others and realize there really is no death and there are no dead. Namaste!

When our hearts sense the loss of a loved one, our sorrow and grief are natural expressions of that loss. As we work through these emotions we come at some point to the question of where our friend or family member has gone to. Where is their essence, their soul, their spirit? This inquiry can begin immediately or occur during or after the physical form has been removed from our presence. We have but to think of the person and wait expectantly to sense that he or she is close by. When we listen and watch with the ears and eyes of the heart, spirit senses a welcome that overcomes the illusion of separation. Namaste!

“We are such stuff as dreams are made on” (Shakespeare). The validity of dreams is often overlooked or dismissed. We don’t actually know which parts of our lives are built on dreams and which are part of some other expression of reality. We assume when we are asleep that the dreams we encounter are a bit of brain activity related to memories of the day or some fantasy to entertain. When we are awake, we believe we are experiencing a reality more solid than that we encounter in sleep. In truth, we cannot know which is the dream and which is “reality,” whether we are indeed dreaming when we are actually experiencing what we agree upon as reality. It does not matter. When we become aware of the shifting borders of dream, we begin to realize our essential reality exists in the realm of miracles. Namaste!
