Who is more open to the workings of spirit than young children?  They live their lives weaving between the real world and their world of make believe, often finding it hard to differentiate between one and the other. Because of this, we often dispel the stories they share, or tune out their garbled chatter with special friends unseen by our human eyes.

They say that children are especially receptive in the years prior to school age.  This is because they haven’t had too much outside influence to plant seeds of doubt, seeds that will take root and spread through their consciousness for years to come.

Our daughter, her spouse and their two children were renting a particular home for over two years.  When they decided to move closer into town our Grandson Owen was understandably upset, after all, he was just three and a half years old, so he had spent the major part of his life there.

On a daily basis Owen asked to go back to his other home, and whenever they drove past the place he would cry and cry, begging them to pull into the driveway. One particular day as they drove by his eyes welled up with tears, “I miss my other mommy”, he said.  When his mother asked him what he was talking about, Owen went on to tell her about his “other mommy”.  He said that she lived in their old home and she was there all the time.

Owens’ “other mommy” would sit on the edge of his bed, and she frequently told him stories about her two boys.  This was confirmed by Owens’ sister, who said that she had seen the woman as well.  Owen went on to say that he missed talking with his “other mommy”, and that she was nice to him, but she was sad too.

We could have sloughed this off as Owen having an imaginary friend, but what a loss that would have been. For an investigation has provided us with some interesting information.  Before our daughter moved into the home, a couple and their two boys had lived there. The mother had died about a year or so prior of an aneurism, it happened quickly and unexpectedly.

So who was this special friend of Owens’?  Was she imaginary, or was she spirit? There is no doubt in my mind.  Now my focus is to ensure the door stays open, so our grandchildren can continue to be receptors for spirit and other phenomena.  I can only imagine the wonders they’ll share.

Children and Spirit column is a forum for sharing our children’s experiences, to learn and grow from them, and yank out a few roots of doubt along the way.  To share your child’s story please e-mail publisher@truebluespirit.ca

Greetings Wavewalker, thanx very much for your reply to my question. I’d very much like to partake in the ceremony you speak of, to allow one of my power animals to make visual contact with me. Please let me know when you’re available to perform this ceremony.

Hello Michael,

I have no immediate plans to do a power animal ceremony. However, Dorothy Jeanne Engst suggests the opportunity for one during the retreat this summer in July. This does sound like a possibility. You can find information about the retreat on the True Blue Spirit website.

I have been a successful poet in the past. lately it seems my poetry is all not only rejected but somehow erased. I wonder if this is a sign to stop writing or just a sort of fallow time in my writing life.

True  poetry is 90% inspiration and 10% perspiration. Relax and request direction from those in the realm of spirit that you were in touch with when your writing was at its’ best.
Ask that only the highest and the best qualified be your mentors.
Then, relax and pay attention as you tune in to the infinite poetry of the universe. Strive not to solve the great mysteries, just accept the fact that you play your role accordingly. With both dignity and humility. Always set a time that is convenient for you to spend with your mentors in spirit.
Then allow your soul to fly with the angels, unshackled by human critics.

We spent time yesterday at the Crystal Light Sanctuary on Salt Spring Island. Carol and James Henry Spencer (Jim) were wonderful hosts as always. When it came to the mediumship portion of the event, two messages came through loud and clear from spirit and these were happily received by visitors to the Sanctuary. One message was from a young man who had only recently passed over after Christmas. These messages from spirit can be emotional, but they are so worth it.

James Henry Spencer and Allen Engst allowed themselves to be channelers for the healing, which was appreciated by many. Crystal Light Sanctuary only meets the first Sunday of each month. I recommend you pop by for a visit sometime.

Best of all is when we have time to share alone with Carol and Jim. We always return home with an answer to a question we didn’t even know we were looking for. And in the case of Jim, it is often his humble yet sincere words of wisdom that we carry in our hearts for days.

Jim has an opportunity for a venture at hand; one which could potentially make him some good earnings. When I asked Jim what he planned to do with this opportunity he smiled, and in his soft slow speech said, “I already have abundance of peace, love and harmony in my life. I enjoy every minute of every day. I have no desire to disrupt the beautiful flow of energy that surrounds me, I want to appreciate it. I have everything I need.”

What wonderful words that we can all live by.

This was a wonderful way to roll into 2010…and those words will carry me a long way as I will refer to them often.

Keep well.

Treat each moment with the courage of your first steps, the excitment of new love, the freedom of a soaring bird, the warmth of the summer sun and with the innocence of a child. Each new day is ours to discover, a dance not yet brought to life, a song without words create every step of it with love ~ thank you all for everything you bring to this world, for your heartfelt words,

may you embrace with open arms and a full heart all that is to come in 2010

Hello Dorothy and all of our wonderful readers.

As we head into the new year I am reminded of how grateful I feel to each and every one of you for picking up the True Blue Spirit magazine and sharing your comments with us.

I can’t begin to count how many people have thanked me for the articles or how many have said how much they have helped them in one way or another. At times I have doubts that what I am doing is really making a difference and if it weren’t for your comments and the animals gently nudging me to keep expanding and sharing I probably wouldn’t be doing what I am today. So a huge thank you to you all for who you are and what you share.

The animals around us all thank you too!

Many blessings for yet another fabulous year ahead,

Stephanie

It’s great to see so many visitors coming to our site. Thanks to those of you that are completing our survey!

Be sure to submit your numerology questions to Shannon.

Call them what you like, birth date numbers,  destiny  numbers or life path numbers, these can hold the key to opening information that will give you  insight to your life  and perhaps help you take a new direction on the journey. My ruling number is 8…and I’ve  always loved that  number.

Have a look at the title of our magazine, notice how I managed to integrate my  number in the title?

Speaking about the title of our magazine, True Blue Spirit, someone asked me recently to explain the blue part of the title. Blue opens the flow of communication and slows down the human metabolism to produce a calming effect. That fits in perfectly with our magazine, True – authentic, genuine, sincere, Blue – opens communication, calming, Spirit – principle of conscious life, supernatural, soul, consciousness. This really sums up what our magazine is presenting to our readers in their Pursuit of Intuitive Living!

Keep checking the website, we have more special links coming soon.

Keep well.
