Blocking the "little voice"

Last night I did double duty; I played at a favorite 'gig' with a talented friend, but was also asked to "see' something for someone in the audience.

I learned long ago to turn off the psychic antennae as much as possible when I was doing my music job. Otherwise, the feelings coming in from a room full of people can get in the way.

 Is that guy in the corner a serial killer or just someone who had a fight with his girlfriend? That's what it feels like. It warns of danger; but it doesn't distinguish between minor and major, it all feels important, it all feels like a serious warning.

As a kid, this gave me a very rough time; I didn't know others didn't feel this way.
I just knew I was nervous and upset a lot. It took years to figure it out.

Last night, someone asked me to "see" something for them, and all I saw was a name. I gave him the name and asked who it was; it was someone he worked with. "Is he alright?" I asked. "No," he answered, suddenly looking away.

I told him this meant he was supposed to call him or ask him how he could help, to be the voice of encouragement in this persons' life. "Why me?" he asked, jokingly.
"I don't know," I answered, I sometimes ask myself the same question."

Happy Thanksgiving to all, be the voice of enouragement when you can be. Everyone has a story, and most are worse than yours. Be as kind as you can, we're only here temporarily...

Good or evil?

Organized religion has long believed that all psychic things are evil. Most of them believe this because:
        
A: a little occult stuff may lead to a lot of occult stuff, which leads you away from God.
B: some occult things may be due to satan, or under demonic influence.

But no one really talks about the every day psychic abilities you hear about, where someone dreams their loved one dies, and they do, or visits from beyond from a loved on, or the phone call from someone who died...Yet, everyone has a story like this, either from their own lives, or someone they know.

Is there some other answer for these abilities? Is it just in our nature's to have them, and do some just hone them more or maybe needed them more in their rough childhoods , so they developed more?

The Bible is full of psychic abilities, prophecy, visions, and clairvoyance. So how  can they be evil? if it is inside us all to some degree, and you believe in God, who makes us all, then they are from God. Not to replace God in any way; but a little extra help from God maybe. This is what I believe personally.
And if they are from God, they are a gift, like other spiritual gifts.

The Catholic Church believes that demons, being fallen angels, have the same powers as angels. Which is to say, more power than humans, but not as much as God. Only God knows the future, demons don't. So whenever someone dreams a dream that comes true, or has a clairvoyant revelation that comes to pass, they are in essence knowing something that according to the Church, demons can not know. Another good indication that any real psychic abilities must be from God. It's the only conclusion I can come to at this point at least!

Guitar playing spirit?

     The other night, I was sitting quietly doing some writing on my laptop. Suddenly the 'A" string on my old guitar leaning against the wall in the corner, played by itself. This is my first "good" guitar, a birthday present from my folks when I was 16.

My recently deceased son loved this guitar. He begged to take it to his various apartments, and I begged him to watch over it carefully; it would be his someday, but was still very dear to me in sentimental value, I didn't want it stolen.

I've had guitars leaning against walls in the studio and living areas of several homes over the past 40 years, and none have ever played themselves. James, was that you? I think it was; you knew that would get my attention more than anything. Or was it you Dad? Both of you played, and both of you passed away recently. Keep it up, I like it.

Haunted Prison: Mansfield Reformatory

Last night I went to a notoriously haunted prison, Mansfield Reformatory. I've done psychic readings there for several years for my friend, paranormal investigator and author, Sherri Brake's tour company, Haunted Heartland Tours. (www.hauntedhistory.net)

Even if the spirits aren't particularly active on a given night, the Gothic architecture alone is worth the trip. Spindle's and spires and cupola's, oh my!

But the spirits usually are active. I had something pat me on the head one night on the second landing, just up from the lobby and gift shop. Unexpected AND unwanted! The past week or so has had footsteps, whistling, scuffling feet and touches, all experienced by the staff. Check the place out, they give daytime tours as well. It's definitely haunted.

Do You Believe?

I believe. I have no other choice really; it's too much a part of my life not to. I was born with these psychic abilities, and so I don't really know what it's like not to have them.  it caused a lot of problems for me, especially when I was young.

 I didn't understand why I was so scared all the time; that fear, anger, hate, and all those strong emotions could be felt coming from other people. Everything around me came through so strongly, it left me exhausted and fearful dealing with it.
But I thought this was normal. it took years to understand others weren't feeling this stuff.

And right about then was when things started scratching on my bed and locking me in the bathroom. This was too much, and I anesthetized myself in various ways as a teenager. Looking back, no wonder. It still scares me today.

Anybody else have these problems? I'd like to help, I hate the thought of others having to go through what I went through. And I'd like to hear from anyone suffering through hauntings or poltergeist experiences. I'd like to give  some free readings occasionally, and answer any paranormal related questions you have as well. Fire away!
