I liked your explanation that perhaps the spirit you want to come through might not come through because you are asked to be a conduit of sorts for someone else. This happened to me early on during a reading that I had 4 or 5 years ago. I so wanted to have my mom come through, but my dear Aunt Vera came through, with a very kind and supportive message to me. I was so excited to share this with another family member! I was told my Aunt was wearing a Red Sox cap, but I didn't know about her love of the Red Sox, so being a "newbie" to readings, I wanted to affirm that it was my dear Aunt Vera. I was also not sure if my cousin, whom I wished to share the information with would be open to hearing about the communication. I went with my instincts and my cousin was very open to the information I shared with her. She also confirmed that my Aunt Vera was an avid Red Sox fan and had a hat she wore whenever she was watching a game on TV! This opened up my communication with my cousin as well. It is so amazing what a reading can do for the living! I am part of a spiritualist church and we are often reminded that even if a message is not given for us on that particular night, there may be something in another's message that resonates with us as well. We are all so connected in spirit!
Hi Tina, these are great examples, especially your aunt coming through instead of your mother. It can be a bit stressful passing along messages to people who might not be open to it, but I'm glad your cousin appreciated it and it strengthened your relationship with her. That took courage on your part, so kudos to you. Perhaps bringing you and your cousin closer was your mother's and aunt's plan all along. Thanks for sharing. Go Red Sox!
Hi Bob, I am a very new subscriber. I believe in afterlife & visitations, etc. Most of my loved ones thought I’m a little “goofy” for my beliefs. My question is: even if they didn’t believe, would/could they still come through during a reading or “gallery?” Thank you - Linda
Hi Linda, I'm happy to have you here. Many of us here are considered a bit goofy by some of our friends and family members. To answer your question: Yes, many people who did not believe in the afterlife while alive, including atheists and agnostics, have come through during readings with mediums. While they might have been surprised when their consciousness left their body and they still existed, they are always pleased to realize they had it wrong. My own father came through in my early readings admitting he didn't believe in life after death before his death but is happy to discover his error now that he's in spirit. And I've witnessed hundreds of other people's readings during public mediumship demonstrations (galleries) where audience members' loved ones came through with this same message. My best wishes to you. Thank you for this great question.
