A friend shared this, “When something hurts, like a skin cut or an ankle twist, instead of focusing on the pain, I say, ‘This is what healing feels like.’ Turns my thoughts around.”

	  Today, we have the pleasure of a blog post written by a professional psychic. In this post, she describes how she experiences psychic communication.  This woman goes by the title, “The Operator,” because she has a direct line to The Other Side. Here’s the post: In the early days of receiving communications from people I couldn't see, I frequently telephoned a friend who is a mental health professional. Many times, we had the same conversation: I told her what had happened to me, she asked me some probing questions about it, and then she told me it didn't sound like mental illness to her. I found this greatly relieving. It gave me the confidence to go forward and continue to develop my skills. In our last conversation like this, my friend gave me the criteria I needed to diagnose myself in the future. She said, "If it's not causing you distress, it's optional for you, and it doesn't interfere with other things you'd like to be doing, I think it's fine." Psychic communications have always been optional for me. I'm not the person who stands in her kitchen with a dreamy look and says to the dishwasher repair man squatting on the floor, "Has your grandfather passed away? He's here with a message for you." If I'm not working, I won't accept messages for other people. I tell any spirits who arrive that I'm not interested because I'm not working. If a spirit has arrived to communicate with me, specifically, I ask why. If I think their motive is selfish or destructive, I say, “No, go away.” My mental health is important to me. While having psychic abilities is fun, I'm not willing to let them interfere with my life. Part of making sure that psychic communication stays controllable is being aware of the difference between psychic input and other input. The two are different, but unless you pay close attention, you might confuse them. In my experience, psychic information goes immediately to memory. Here's what I mean by this. Imagine receiving a sudden, unexpected blow to the nose. The first awareness you have is the feeling of impact on your nose. This lasts for a fraction of a second. After the initial impact, you have a powerful memory of the impact. Even though that first moment is over, the blow still seems to ring through your whole being. There's pain in your nose, yes, but the memory of the blow itself is also still an intense sensation. This intense sensation of the blow exists only in your memory. Your memory asks, “Why did this happen?” “How did this happen?” Your memory tries to trace what happened before the blow to cause it. “Did I run into something?” “Was there somebody who wanted to hit me?” These thoughts are going on independently of the current sensation of pain in your nose. I find that the part of my mind that processes the memory of something is the same part that receives psychic communications. If, for some reason, the spirit you're having me contact wants to give you the idea of a powerful blow to the nose, I'm going to have all the same memory experiences that I would have if it happened to me. Quite suddenly, I'll be hit with a memory of an intense blow to the nose. I'll wonder how it happened and frantically retrace the moments beforehand. I'll feel a tremendous amount of focus on my nose, mimicking the experience of processing ongoing pain in the nose. In other words, I'll have every part of the experience except for the actual, physical sensations of the initial blow and pain in my nose. Of course, most psychic communication isn't this intense; usually, it's something gentler. For example, in my early days of reading professionally, one spirit wanted to communicate something to a client which was symbolized by the rear view of a grand house with a beautiful in-ground pool. I have my eyes closed when I'm reading for someone, so I obviously wasn't seeing the house with my actual eyes, overlaid on the client's face. Instead, in my mind, I suddenly had a memory of having seen this beautiful house and pool that I had never seen in real life. The feeling was of having seen it only a split-second earlier. The spirit giving me the image felt it was important and so gave it to me over and over again, which came through as memory after memory after memory of the same view of the same house, throughout the reading. I was grateful for the repeated communication, both because it made clear how important the image was to the spirit and because it gave me a refined opportunity to observe this sudden arrival of an image in my memory. Now that I know for certain how it feels to have a piece of information arrive suddenly in my memory, I will never mistake a psychic communication for something that has actually happened to me. I also know that I'm not hallucinating, because my eyes and ears didn't register the input. When an image, a sound, or a feeling suddenly arrives in my memory, I can choose whether to pay attention to it or not. This is my life, right here and right now, so I choose where my thoughts go. If I'm reading for someone, I scrutinize the input carefully and relay it to the client. When I'm off, I say, “No, thank you.” If the input is from someone who wants to talk to me, specifically, I either stop what I'm doing and pay attention or say I'll talk to them later. When it's a better time to talk, I say, “Okay, what would you like to communicate?” I know the input that then arrives in my memory is not my own but from elsewhere. Awareness of how psychic communication arrives makes my psychic abilities a pleasure rather than any sort of burden. It keeps me from worrying about my mental health and enables me to relay messages to clients with confidence. The Operator [email protected] (505) 321-1256 In 1988, my husband and I bought a home in northwest Tucson. We loved that house. It’s where our babies grew up. Eight years later, we needed a larger home so we left our first house and bought a second one. 
		We kept in touch with one of our neighbors and were disheartened to hear that our old house was not being treated well. Perhaps drug dealers had moved in? Party people? The house sold several more times. I don’t know the whole story, but our cute home was not being cared for. In February 2018, I was talking about houses with Karreen Martin at the Psychic Fair. I told her how much we had loved that first house and that I wished for new owners who would love it too. Karreen said, “With a pendulum, you can clear it. Picture the house. The energy is zero. She asked, ‘Do you feel loved at this time?’ Zero.” She went on, working with her pendulum, “Let’s clear all beliefs, all lies. I do it just like a soul. I do it from the bottom to the top, left to right, inside and out, top to bottom. What we are going to ask is that whoever moves in from this day forward love it, and value it. That it feels loved, valued, and worshiped. Clear the neighborhood. Any disagreements. Clear all toxic streams, all entities, all portals, sealing them with white light. Now I ask the house, ‘What is your energy?” “100%.’ Which is what it needs.” She checked the energy of the people in the home, saying that anything can be cleared. I am so happy to report that we drove by the home last weekend and it looks good! A new set of owners had painted and decorated the house. Someone added a garage and a steel roof. It looks loved! Check out the photos from 1989 and last weekend. Our house is loved. Thank you, Karreen for working to enhance the energy of our former home. :) Gail [email protected]   I wasn’t sure what to write about today. Nothing in particular came to mind. Then, I thought about John Hunter and all the things I had learned from him. One idea in particular came to me: People are in our lives to give us opportunities, experiences, and lessons.  According to John, everybody we come in contact with has signed up to represent a window of opportunity for us to accelerate our growth. We deliver emotional signals to each other, then these emotional reactions are sent to our spirit. Strong emotions are the signal that there is an energetic interaction which we might grow through. We can feel it. In our physical bodies, we interact energetically. Our emotional responses to people and to situations signify that there is an opportunity for growth. We can take that opportunity, or turn away. John helps clients understand why certain people are in their lives and why these people bring up emotions. Once the patterns or messages are identified, people can look at each issue and then choose, “Do I want to accept this or not?” We have a predetermined set of lessons we want to learn while on Earth. People and situations provide the opportunity work through those lessons and discover who we are. Our main objective is to claim responsibility for our lives. Our mission is to represent love. John says that love is the answer to everything. Love feeds and transforms negative energy into positive energy. We can learn how to apply love in every situation so that we can turn it from a negative experience into a positive one. If we are just energy beings, we can’t experience things and make conscious decisions about our interactions. It’s to our benefit to come into a lower vibrational vehicle, like a body, so we can see, step-by-step, the interaction of matter meeting energy. If someone in our life represents the heart chakra, or love, we are going to go through a process with them and see the positives and the negatives of love. John suggests that our goal should be to say, “I understand what happened. There is some pain, but there is also a lot of love and growth. I choose to view this situation through the positive vibration of that interaction.” In the future, if a similar situation should arise, we have already learned how to see it clearly, how to apply love, and how to transform it into a positive situation. Emotions can overwhelm us. We have to remember that emotional reactions are energetic signals for us to connect to our Higher Self for understanding, or for an explanation, of what is going on. If we can’t figure it out on our own, we can talk to a psychic reader. John says that we are made to be partners. We are made to be a community. We are made to work with each other, help each other, and grow together. Problems don’t go away until we deal with them. They stay in front of us so we can address them, then let them go. John went on to tell me how to apply the love vibration in every situation. So interesting. If you want to know more about John and his work, you can download his interview as a Kindle e-book. You can download the interview to your computer or phone. You don’t need an e-reader for the book. The first 20 pages of my interview with John are still up, for free, on my other website at http://www.kushnerskreations.com/featured-interview.html. The full interview can be found on Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/Psychics-Speak-Individual-Interviews-Hunter-ebook/dp/B07GVSJX11/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1535653704&sr=1-1&keywords=Psychics+Speak%2C+The+Individual+Interviews%3A+John+Hunter . Remember, the stronger your reaction to someone or some event, the more there is to learn. Take care. Gail [email protected]   Quotes from Two Well-Connected People - Everything is Energy  Two people share their experience of everything being energy. The Woman I had an experience at an Ashram. I went to this place of awareness where there were no words. It was pure consciousness. It was an awareness of everything being the same energy. I could see the people, the dishes, the building, my clothes; everything was the same energy. Everything had the same vibration. Everything was G-d energy. I went into this place of pure consciousness. One of the monks was bopping by and I grabbed his arm. I had to swim through this thick quicksand to find the place where words were. It was this pure awareness. There were no words, no thoughts, nothing. I was finally able to articulate to him how hysterical it was. It’s the ultimate cosmic joke -- you are G-d and you are running around trying to pretend that you are not. I am G-d and I am running around and pretending that I am not. I started laughing my head off. He looked at me and said, “You got it.” Then he bopped off. I went back into this place of no thoughts and no words. The Man I had an experience while hiking. Things seem to happen more easily when I am in nature. I am going along and all of the sudden, I feel, “I am just energy.” What was new for me was that everything around me became energy. It was like my energy was passing through the energy of everything else. I wasn’t scared. It was cool. This is the truth of what is. I understand that to have an experience, we create the illusion of material stuff. I get that. This was the first time I was able to feel the difference between what I perceive as reality on a human level and what is the actual truth.   On July 11, 2019, I wrote about how each person experiences death in their own way. There is a basic framework for what happens, and a lot of room for personal tailoring. Today, I want to add some detail by sharing the experiences of four people who have passed in the last few years. These souls have been contacted through Mediums and I have asked about their direct experience.  Let’s review the framework. At the time of “death,” the soul rises from the body and is greeted by souls (people or animals) who they are happy to see. These souls let them know that things will be okay. After that, there is a tunnel of light. Souls travel through the tunnel to whatever they expect. They get what they expect because this is comforting. They may see G-d, or the pearly gates, or they may have a darker experience if that is what they think they deserve. Instead of a bright light, some souls report going into swirls of different colors which they know are solar systems. There’s a “wowness” to it. Then, there is a period of adjustment and contemplation which usually includes a Life Review. Finally, souls move into a more social space which we might call Heaven, where they learn, explore hobbies, and travel. After that, they can decide if they would like to reincarnate on Earth, or elsewhere. Here are the stories of four recently departed people: (1) Randy. You might remember that Randy was part of our spiritual/channeling group. He was always well-connected to The Other Side. He slipped over in his sleep, had a quick period of surprise that he was gone, then went on to begin a research track. In life, he had often told us that he spent as much time on The Other Side, as he did on this side. Easy-peezy. (2) My mother. My mother didn’t want to die. She clung to life. She didn’t believe there was an afterlife and she refused to go. After her death, she latched onto me. If she had to go, she wanted me to go with her. I refused. Because she didn’t want to cross over and she didn’t believe there was an afterlife, she stayed in a kind of limbo-land where she wouldn’t fully cross, like Heaven’s foyer. Not a bad place, a “nothing” place. Now, she is resting and exploring who she is. She is wondering, without all the roles she had been expected to play in life, who was she? Eventually, I believe she will decide to cross fully to the Light. Her decision. (3) A friend’s brother. He was ill. His body was falling apart, but he didn’t want to go. After he died, he came through with the message that he missed the recreational drugs on Earth. The drugs had been great. He spent his time missing drugs and supporting family members as they mourned. My friend laughed when she received the message about the drugs – this message could only have come from her brother. It was a confirmation he was coming through. (4) An friend’s aunt. Spirit told us, “While there is rejoicing in connecting with other souls who had gone prior, there is also a tremendous deep dissatisfaction with the situations which had transpired in the pattern of her life. This is a time to ask why things happened as they had happened, and to get clarity.” The message continued, “That time will pass quickly and she will be able to focus more clearly on herself and on the magnificence of her energy.” According to Spirit, some people can transmit their energy with great grace and beauty. Others have tremendous challenges. Some dance very, very well. Other people have a hard time keeping from tripping. Everyone has a different, graceful energy with which they can flow and manifest from one state to the other. The more I explore this topic, the more interesting it becomes. Let me know what you think. Gail [email protected]  A woman and her Spirit Guide Everyone has Spirit Guides who provide gentle life hints, and each person has a unique way of connecting with their Guides. The Guides will find the best way to connect with the people who are interested in their wisdom.  People have told me about these kinds of connection: * I hear words from my Guides. * I see them. * I feel them and understand their messages. * I have one main Guide, but other Guides can be called in when I need a different kind of advice. For example, I may need medical guidance, or romantic advice, or workplace suggestions. * I have a group of Guides. I see and hear them. * I’ve had this Greek chorus I could see in my head; 8 or 10 of them that were kind of amorphous. * I don’t call anyone a Guide. I hear directly from Spirit. * I turn on the radio and hear advice in song lyrics. * I open a book to a random place and read words of advice. * I do automatic writing and words come through me. * When we gather as a group, our Guides also gather together. * I had a group of Guides and they left. Another group arrived. When we change, our Guides change. * I used to have Guides. I don’t hear them anymore. I think it’s because I need to stand on my own two feet. During a channeling session, I asked why each person’s experience was so distinct. The answer: “The range of the experience of Guides is as diverse as the experience that each one of you has in every aspect of life. Every one of you experiences abundance differently, experiences romance differently, experiences family differently, experiences faith differently. Each of you experiences life on a totally different vibration. Why would it be expected that there would not be the same range of experience in terms of how spirit, how the G-d energy is received by any one of you? It’s all G-d energy. How you determine it, how you perceive it, how you name it, is up to each individual.” “They will reach you in the manner in which you need to be reached. Because each of you is unique, the manner to reach each individual is also unique.” It’s like “Guide-Dance.” We waltz around with our Guides, figuring out how to understand their subtle leads. My best personal connection comes when I meditate. I get a thought. It’s either an inspiration to do something, or an explanation of something which happened. The other way I receive clear messages is through psychic readers. I always hear something new, interesting and, usually, heart-touching. Let me share a story from last week. I was at the Gem Show, looking at a lovely piece of jewelry. It was expensive. I kind of felt a dare from the Universe to buy it. “Go ahead and buy it. Test your belief that you live in an abundant universe.” And so I did. I purchased a beautiful ring. The next day, I opened our mail to find a completely unexpected reimbursement check from a 2018 purchase. The check covered the cost of the ring. Woo-woo-woo. I think I listened to my Guides and things worked out well. Figure out how to connect to your Guides, then listen to their advice. Gail [email protected] New Gems! 
		I stopped at a couple of Gem Shows last week. Look what I found! Malachite (green and black stones) is a stone of balance, abundance, manifestation and intention. Malachite absorbs energy and draws emotions to the surface. It clears and activates all chakras, and is especially helpful in the stimulation of the Heart and Throat chakras. I found Bumble Bee Jasper Hearts (yellow, black, and white). Bumble Bee Jasper activates the Sacral and Solar Plexus chakras, enabling you to accept change, find new opportunities, increase your self-esteem and make decisions without relying on emotions. Parrot Wing Chrysocolla ranges from light green to deep blue. It is a stone of prosperity and business astuteness. I also found Unakite Jasper (green and pink) which brings together the abundant, nurturing energy of green with the soft, caring passion of pink. It resonates with the frequency of love, compassion and kindness, and is a stone dedicated to balancing the emotional body. Unakite also encourages visionary abilities by opening your psychic vision. It works through the Third Eye chakra to help you visualize the things you desire in your life. It is assists with sleep and relieves stress. Blue Kyanite (oblong blue pieces) is a protective stone. It opens the Throat chakra, encouraging communication and self-expression. It cuts through fears and blockages, helping one to speak the truth. It is great for public speakers and performers. It is known for its ability to align all of the chakras without conscious effort. Apatite (long blue piece on the right side) is a dual-action stone. It clears away confusion, apathy and negativity, then stimulates the intellect to expand knowledge and truth which may be used for personal growth or for the collective good. I will have these stones at the next psychic fair. :) Gail [email protected]   I’ve received a few messages through psychics about the importance of considering different perspectives. I have my opinions and I like to think I’m correct. Spirit continues to remind me that everyone has different impressions which are based on their life experience. All these perspectives are valid and need to be considered.  This example was given: someone who lives near the equator might report that this is a hot planet. Someone who lives near the arctic circle might report that this is a cold planet. From their perspective, each person is right. It’s easy to think that we have the only valid observations of life, but other people’s points of view are true for them. We can learn from their experiences. People incarnate to have physical adventures. Everyone is on a different path which leads them to have their own opinions. In addition, some people's ideas seem “unenlightened.” The path they have chosen is giving them the lessons they seek. To us, it may seem like they are on a “dark” path. To them, it’s the path they selected before birth, and they chose it for a reason. Spirit remarked, “From each individual’s perspective, in the sphere of their lifetime and development, their perspective is accurate.” “Fools will argue. Intelligent minds will understand that we merely differ in perspective. There are aspects of truth in all. When you can accept that life variances create different perspectives, you may find yourself living in peace. That is why peace and harmony have been difficult for the greater globe.” “Just like the earth is spinning and shifting on its axis, you are spinning and shifting. You are a vibrational energy which grows and expands. Just when you think you understand something, you realize there is a higher level. When you were in school, you were happy to be able to add. Then they threw in subtraction. Then, times tables and division. Always more to learn. As you integrate energy within yourself, you will see how much more there is to integrate. This is an eternal process and a wonderful experience of development and vibration.” One person in the room commented that each of us is at a different level. One person might be on their 100th incarnation while another person is on their first. In light of these remarks, I have been making an effort to talk with new people and see what they think. I try not to judge. Fortunately, most people are delightful. The truth? The thing which gets me every time is politics. I read the news and I cannot understand why anyone would support the way immigrants are being treated. We were all immigrants at one time. How can anyone have the mental/emotional capacity to think of separating children from their parents? How can anyone think of deporting people who need intensive medical care? What kind of person thinks that way? Yet, Spirit tells me that these officials are either basing their opinions on their experience or they are playing a role. In life, some folks play the good guy and some folks play the bad guy. This is the path they have chosen for this lifetime. Do we have to listen to them too? Spirit sent this personal message to me: “Perhaps the question is not, ‘How do we fix it?’ but ‘How do we all understand and respect and value the different aspects of each one, without needing to quantify something as better or worse?’” “Remember that the book, ‘Tell me Why,’ has been published. Now, you can find out the ‘whys’ from people in different communities that you respect and value – creative minds that are not locked into a particular dogma or a particular party. Ask the artists. Ask the ones who are out on the edge. Ask the ones that you know nothing about. As you collect this data, it will open your eyes to see that wisdom comes in spots which you did not anticipate. You will see things with greater clarity.” “We are all one vibration. One collective union of the questions and perspectives. There is not an answer, my dear, any more than there is one vibrative energy. Source energy vibrates on many levels. The answers are varied. When that is understood, accepted, appreciated, and challenged, that is growth. That is education. That is awareness. It is only when people ponder situations with that kind of a desire and willingness, that people grow.” “Whole civilizations have died off from things having to be done one way. Civilizations grow and thrive from understanding that there is not ‘a one way.’” I love listening to people who think like me. People who don’t think like me? I find it very difficult to hear different opinions without judgement. I suppose that I can draw a line here. I can keep an open mind and consider their words, but if I don’t agree, I don’t have to agree. My experiences are valid too. Let me know what you think. I mean that. Do you have anything to add?
