This is my aura on 15th March 2009.  I still find the technology to do this absolutely amazing.  My aura is full of vibrant colours:  pink, gold, yellow, red, orange, white, green and purple.  I had not had much sleep the night before as I went to a concert and had an amazing time, so I was pretty “high” on life when I went to the Trade Fair.

Notice the white area around my foot – this was aching that day from standing so long watching the bands the night before – amazing that the program even picked up on that!  Also notice the green around my head, this could mean that I was in a sociable mood but also could indicate a headache … which both is correct – although I didn’t have a bad headache, my ears were still ringing from the loud music!

What I really loved is the way it even picked up the energy centres (Chakras) and their corresponding colours too! Amazing!

My aura is classed as RED-ORANGE.  The keywords that represent me are: Competitive, Energetic, Sexual, Exitement, Passion and Will Power.   Anyone who knows me knows that this is me down to a “T”.   I also received a detailed overview of what my aura means… but this is personal so I won’t be sharing that info .

I have to admit I was blown away by this aura program .. but at 8 thousand dollars to buy it, I think it will be a while before I treat myself, unless of course a nice generous wealthy reader would like to buy me a special gift….. *wink*

This weekend was a different one for me. I came to get to know Lorelei and Luke on a personal level this year and I finally got around to meeting up with them on Saturday!

Lorelei & Luke are Germany’s best loved psychics. Luke is in comparison to our Gordon Smith, and Lorelei likened more to UK’s Psychic Sally Morgan (although Lorelei is more sincere and reads Oracle too). Both a warm and compassionate couple, I was intrigued to hear what they had to say about me…

Firstly Lorelei kindly helped my youngest son who is experiencing some difficulties in processing what he sees psychically. My youngest is only 7 years old but has been experiencing psychic activity since a toddler. This in turn makes him aggressive and his mood swings are extreme. I have to admit I have already noticed a positive difference in him!

Afterwards, I went and sat quietly in the room next door and Luke joined me first. He was able to see my Nan, which I was happy to know because I was under the impression my Nan was not around me anymore. The main reason I believed this is because I cannot hear or see her like I do with other spirits and mainly because she NEVER comes through on my Ouija board to speak to me, despite being invited.

Evidently my Nan does not come through the board because she is with me all the time, guiding me and continuously feeding me psychic information. She is also responsible for giving me information when I experience premonitions. As I can “hear” her this way and act accordingly there is no need for her to waste precious energy talking through the board. Makes sense doesn’t it!

Now this is where it gets confusing. I know for a fact I have two spirit guides around me. Usually spirit guides come into your life when you face a particular challenge and it isn’t always the same guide that remains with you, also it isn’t usually someone related to you either. I have had the same male guide since I was very young and over the last few years noticed a female guide as well …. which, I just found out, is most likely my Nan. Another psychic told me I have a female “dark” witch with me, and it just didn’t click back then that it was my Nan at all but now I know it’s so obvious!

Luke opened my eyes even further and took me another step closer to where I want to be and what I want to become. Lorelei joined me shortly afterwards and we had a chat about psychic phenomena. She is such a warm and caring person, it was like I had known her all my life.

I cannot thank this wonderful, enlightened couple enough! As all mediums and psychics know, we can help and guide other people but cannot see our own way so easily. According to Luke I am very far on my spiritual journey and I feel I am even further after this weekend!

A few people ask about my family history and I have realised the “witchy” trait really does come down through the female line. My mother, who is extremely psychic never ceases to amaze people with what she knows, especially when something is wrong.  My Nan, however, is another kettle of fish. Butter wouldn’t have melted in her mouth, but if you had ever crossed her you would know about it.  
 
Although our family was very small we were all pretty close. I used to spend hours with my Nan when I was small and she would teach me so much about herbs and talk endlessly about the afterlife.  I just took it all for granted though and never once thought she was different.
 
As I got older I realised she was indeed different.  She always got what she wanted no matter what. Strange things would happen to people she upset but she was always so gentle and kind to me. She used an Ouija Board until my Grandfather burnt it one day when my Nan received a message through about a plane crash full of school children on a trip.  Sadly, the message came true and my Grandfather no longer accepted her to contact spirit in his house again.
 
Years later, I had travelled the world and moved away. One of the most memorable times was on my wedding day. After my wedding I went to see her and gave her my flowers as she was too old and frail to come and my grandfather had already passed on years before.  She was so happy to see me she wouldn’t let me go.  She kept telling me that when she dies she promised me that she would let me know that life after death does exist.  Not trying to let it ruin my day I told her that I would be happy for her to come back and let me know she is there.
 
A few years later I was having dinner when my eldest son developed a sickening smell around his aura. I had absolutely no idea what it was. I bathed him, it was still there. I bathed him and scrubbed him again but it was STILL there.  It smelt like rotting flesh and was literally making me gag. However this smell wasn’t on his skin, it was around him and it remained for the night … the smell was actually coming from a few centimetres from his body.  I had no idea what it was and as I was the only one who could smell it I thought I was going nuts!  The next morning I received a call. I was told that my Nan had passed peacefully in her sleep over night.
 
I checked my son, the smell had gone but the smell could not have been my Nan because she was still alive at that time it first started.  It could have only been my Grandfather trying to let me know he has come back to collect her – but I just didn’t make that connection at all.
 
A few days later just past 2am, one of my son’s baby toys went off for no reason.  I got up to find it and it stopped.  The following night it went off again, same thing, as soon as I got out bed it stopped.  This continued on and on. I took the batteries out of that toy but the next night a different toy would go off.  It got to the stage where my husband had to get out of bed, find the toy and empty the batteries… until one night after about 2 weeks of this going on I leaped out of bed, stood in the middle of the room and cursed.  My Nan absolutely hated swearing but I had had enough, I had already realised early on it must have been her and although she did it also during the day, the 2am ritual of “boing boing boing” was just not acceptable.
 
From then on, after my anger, she never returned.
 
Weeks later I felt so lost and upset for swearing at her that I asked her to forgive me and to come back to let me know she is OK. Suddenly I felt tingly, and all around me were tiny sparkles, I knew she came back to say that everything is alright.  The sparkles lasted a good few minutes, it felt like small electric pin heads all over my skin, I was literally bathed in this energy and I was very emotional.  As I let her go and thanked her and told her how much I loved her, I wondered if she would ever come back again.
 
Sometimes she does but very rarely and yes it is always noisy when she makes an entrance … The most funniest thing is that she has NEVER come through on my Ouija Board to talk to me but my Grandfather has, on more than one occasion, despite him despising it during his life.

The photo is just a representation of what happened. I tried to recreate the incident as best as I could using photoshop to give you an idea of what it was like.

As per usual being woken up by bangs and taps I hauled myself out of bed one night around 3am and went to the bathroom. As I returned to my bedroom a ball of light, in between the size of a golf ball and a tennis ball literally flew out from my clothes area, shot in front of me, whizzed over my chest, halted for a split second at the side of my bed then flew full pelt across my bed and disappeared into the wall.
 
I have never experienced this before nor since, which is a shame because although it startled me, I didn’t feel threatened or worried at all. I stayed up most of that night trying to communicate in the hope it would return but it was long gone.
 
It was almost like I had startled it, like a bird in a bush, when you walk past you don’t see them but they see you and they fly out in a panic chirping away.  OK, now this spirit didn’t chirp, but I did get the impression that I had frightened it as I came back into my room.
 
I guess I should learn to return to my bed a little more dainty and quietly at 3am instead of shuffling like a half dead zombie clambering back to my duvet-clad abode.
 
The main thing that I find surprising is that I built my house myself about 3 years ago. The house only has my energy in it, inside, in-between and out.  I find it fascinating that even a new building with practically zero history can be so active – the ground it is built on is only farmer’s field land but I am wondering if anything was here centuries ago.  The area I chose to live in has such a vibrant energy and one that I have never experienced anywhere else in the world.  Could there be ancient stories of old that might shed some light on this energy and activity?

One thing many people say to me is “OH you are SO lucky”… yes I guess I am in a sense, however, particularly over the last 6 years or so I have lost all knowledge of what a good nights sleep means.  Not a night goes by where I am not woken up by knocks, bangs, lights, nudges, voices and the latest of the lot – snoring. ..These are mainly just audibles & visuals – don’t even get me started on batteries discharging – my mobile phone’s battery being a prime target overnight and not forgetting strange smells that appear from the scent of flowers to rotten eggs!

I usually have a small night light on when I go to bed because not being able to see diddly-squat is too un-nerving and just adds fear to the blackness of the night.  Usually spirits come through around the time from 1am. 2am is usually very active and that can last for a good half an hour or so. Come 3am/3.30am it starts to quiet again, 4am again less active and 5am, usually gone.

Most spirit I feel just comes through to let you know that they are there. Usually once they have said their bit, gotten your attention they disappear.  Some will linger for hours though and I have to get quite forceful in asking them to PLEASE let me get some sleep.

One gent went through a stage of literally shouting loudly in my ear – always when I was sleeping and I could never understand what he was saying.  True, it could have been a dream but it was so loud and so close it always woke me up with a start!  After a few “words” I had with him, he hasn’t done it for a while, which is always nice when they respect your wishes.

Recently though, I have been woken up by heavy breathing, like snoring next to me in the bed and I sleep ALONE. The way I sleep is usually with my right ear to the pillow because it is this ear that is usually affected when I hear things from spirit – so I bury it in hope it lessens the noise – any psychics/mediums reading this will be laughing because I am sure they know what I mean – it probably won’t make a blind bit of difference but what the heck it makes me feel more secure!  I see you laughing!

So as I sleep on the right side of the bed my head is turned away from my invisible neighbour on the left sounding like they are catching flies next to me. Without looking I lay there, wide eyed, very awake just listening to it.  The first time it happened I assumed it was one of my sons who had sneaked in beside me who had drifted into a deep sleep snoring away .. alas when I looked, nobody was there.  The next few times I could feel the hair prickle on my neck, my skin go cold and I would slowly turn to face the snorer …. as soon as I do this it stops! 

I don’t consider myself a fantastic psychic or medium by far. I don’t have any control of who comes to me or when they come.  All I do is let them know I am ready to receive and take it from there.  I also strongly do not believe that one should summon spirit to talk. I am generally happy to talk with those passing through but I will never attempt to force them.  For me this is disrespectful and it should be a two way thing. I don’t like it when they prod me at 2am to pass on a message and I just wouldn’t feel comfortable in doing the same to them in their realm.

I now have a small camcorder and what I aim to do is try and catch some activity on it.  Usually though, I have to confess, I am too tired – sleep to me is like finding gold dust so if I have a chance to sleep I will take it rather than get up out of bed and run around chasing spirits.

Everyone is different. I heard of a guy not far from me who offers a similar healing/reiki service and he can only take on board 2 clients in one day.  On average I remotely heal between 2 and 8 people a day… anymore than 8 and I can’t function normally and so I work around the client or I have to say no for that day.  I have only ever done hands-on healing for just 1 person a day so far.

Last week I was called out to give “energy” to 3 women in a space of 2 hours. I had no idea who they were, they were complete strangers and so I had no idea what to focus on.  Should I cleanse their chakras and aura and just see what happens? There is no point giving healing to someone that doesn’t need it.   I was curious, usually people come to me with an existing problem – I wasn’t sure what to do!

Apart from feeling a little like a side show I went along anyway, just for the curiosity to see my own capabilities. The three women were all different and I knew absolutely nothing about them, not even their names.

The first lady was already very spiritual, although I am not sure she realised this herself. I picked up on a problem in her foot, her lower stomach and her throat. After cleansing her chakras I concentrated on these areas.  After the session (which only lasted about 20 mins) I enquired about what I had felt.  She had an operation on her ankle 2 years ago, which had suddenly started becoming painful that same week. She has also had many troubles with her lower regions but she was not sure about her throat.  I told her to have her thyroid checked out, so I am waiting to hear if what I felt was 100 percent correct.

The second lady; I felt a blockage or something coming from her right breast. I also felt she suffers from insomnia and headaches.  I concentrated on these areas and after the session I also enquired about what I picked up on.  She said that she does have trouble sleeping and also gets regular headaches but was not sure about any problem in her right breast.  I asked her to get it checked out anyway but as she “came to” and stood up she mentioned that her right arm is aching as though she has pulled all the muscles in it.  I suddenly realised that I must have released a blockage in her lymph glands under her arm pit, next to her breast, which is why I was picking up on the energy.  I told her to go home and rest and the pain in her arm should disappear within 24 hours.  I heard the next day that it had.

The last lady didn’t seem to be very spiritual or open at all and I couldn’t feel anything wrong with her apart from a major blockage in her throat chakra area.  This indicated that she is going through a stage in her life in which she is supressing her voice.  I concentrated in opening and cleansing this area to help her to voice whatever it is she needs to say.  I found out later that she has a problem with her husband but won’t say anything!

Afterwards, I was absolutely exhausted. I wasn’t grounded properly and I felt as though I could literally fall on the floor and sleep.  I managed to make my way home and sat down for 5 minutes.  5 minutes turned into an hour when my mobile rang and I thought it was my morning alarm clock telling me to wake up!

Never again will I give energy to so many people in so little time.  Although I believe I helped these wonderful  ladies, I am not sure I can do it again so intensely in 2 hours.

After such a wonderful evening and experience of so many beautiful souls coming through, my mum and I decided to use the board the following night.  I was a little dubious because my mother had bronchitis and so was not 100 percent fit – plus we had a couple of glasses of wine to boot!

We started and it was very slow. We knew there were spirits with us but they came and went very fast and were not able to use the board properly.  I was getting tired, my mum was not feeling right and so I said let’s take a break.  I leant back onto a cushion to ease my back but my mother continued to warm up the board when she suddenly said “Sandy you’d better come here”.

As I sat up, I saw my mum shaking. As I leant forward my feet and my hands which were near her went ice cold, like they were trapped inside a dry-ice freezer.  My mum said she was freezing and can feel her spine being frozen from the inside out.  She felt a pressure on her back and on her right side of her neck.  All around us was an absolute chilling icy breeze – it was not pleasant at all.

I immediately asked who this spirit was. He spelled out GORDON. I said leave my mother alone. He moved over NO. I reinstated this 3 times until he said YES. I said that we have absolutely nothing to communicate to you or from you if you are going to act disrespectfully.  I said to my mum, maybe he just wanted to use your voice-box to speak.  The planchette then whizzed to YES.  I told Gordon that this was not possible and that he must only communicate via the board.  He eventually agreed to say GOODBYE and we closed down the board.  I immediately burnt white sage and smudged the whole house until it was so smokey you couldn’t see anything. I then opened the windows and aired.  Usually after smudging, the house is immediately relieved of any negative energies. However, Gordon remained.

We warmed up the house and ourselves, called it a night and went to bed.  In the night I was continuously woken up by loud bangs, knocks and taps in my room.  I knew it was Gordon, but there was nothing I could do apart from tell him to leave. He was obviously either desperate to talk or he was just being obnoxious, either way his behaviour was unacceptable.

In the morning I asked how my mum had slept downstairs in the guest room.  She said she kept hearing me in the hallway calling her and she kept hearing things “pinging”.

I explained to her that I was upstairs all night long and that I did not call her once in the night.  The pinging we later found were 3 plastic pegs had unpegged themselves from the washing room, snapped away and pinged across the hall. Gordon eventually left during that day and has not reappeared since, thankfully.

This is when things can get out of hand. Never use a board when you are sick, on medication or under the influence of drugs or alcohol.  Believe me, I am experienced in working with spirits, but nothing prepared me for that night. 

I had my mother and a good friend come round for an evening of Ouija.  My friend is German so we were interested to see what would happen and if the board would use German or English to communicate.

The 3 of us sat down together and the air was thick with activity you could hardly breathe.  However, we were just getting through tons of nonsense.  One gent in particular got quite annoyed with me and spelt out PEN because I told him I didn’t understand what he was saying.  I got up, retrieved a pen and paper and proceeded to write down everything he spelt out.  Again everything he spelt out was gobbledygook and when I asked if he was playing games he abruptly went to NO and left.

He spelt out the following: HOW E N L O P U C D P H L H J M

If this means anything to anyone please let me know and I can pass on the message to the right person.

After that it felt as though the board was being used by many different spirits.  We asked how many spirits wanted to speak and the number 5 was shown.  I could feel the tension in the room and tried to “order” them to take turns.  One funny spirit came through and when I asked him who he was he said number 2.  I have to admit it is surprising how many spirits have an amazing sense of humour – but sadly he was only with us for a minute then he left.

This is one of the things that I have found. Most spirits are very limited in their time of communication or they just run out of energy.  I don’t know why most can’t stay long but usually once they have said their bit, they usually leave.

The board continued and I felt an elderly lady come through. She spelt out HELLO HOME ONCE AGAIN. I was so pleased to have someone come through so coherent. I asked her name and she spelt out CLEO.  I asked her how old she was when she died and she moved over 7 then 4. She then began to move the planchette to goodbye but I quickly said “Are you happy now” – she moved the planchette to YES then went back to GOODBYE and left.

It is times like this when you feel emotional and we sent her off with well wishes, peace and love.  Just as we were about to close for the evening a man came through.  He spelt out BILL UNCLE.  I didn’t know any Uncle Bill and neither did my mum. I asked my friend who nodded wide eyed and said she has an Uncle Bill in Texas but he is still alive.  I asked the spirit if he was Uncle Bill. The board spelt out NO. I asked the spirit if he has a message for Uncle Bill. The board spelt out YES. I asked what he wished to say to Uncle Bill.  The board spelt out HI HOW PAL.  I asked the spirit what his name was so we can pass on the good wishes to Uncle Bill and he spelt out JJ.

He then left peacefully and the energy in my room was fantastic. It was really vibrant and although still thick of residual energy it was positive.

The next day I enquired if my friend’s Uncle Bill knew a JJ.  He did – Jay Jay was a guy he was with in the Army

After buying a board and “doing it up”, I kept it in my “sacred” area but never used it. I don’t know why … probably because I was intimidated by the unknown and I was unsure as to what to expect, especially on my own. I heard so many horror stories when growing up as a child, I am sure you have heard them all too, and to be honest with you this beautiful board frightened the life out me.  However – my passion and lust for necromancy was far more dominant than my nerves.  My Nan was the one with nerves of steel when using Ouija boards. The information she received was unbelievable and whatever was delivered to her, came true – I think that is where my own apprehension arose from!

My mother came to visit one time over Easter – a powerful witch all her life and had acquired the nickname “white witch” from friends and colleagues over the years.  It is only in the last 10 years that my mother has truly embraced her abilities and accepted them rather than dismissing her psychic gifts as coincidences or chance.   She saw my board and asked if I had used it, “No”, I replied sheepishly and she said, “Right then dust it off and lets give it a whirl”.  It was still light outside but we were alone and we sat opposite each other, fingers resting lightly on the planchette.  I was hopeful that something would happen but not surprised when nothing did.

After about half an hour my back was aching and I had had enough and we stopped.  She said that we should try later tonight by candlelight after my children are in bed asleep.   That night when all was quiet I lit up a few candles and we sat down opposite each other with the board on our laps.  Nothing happened for ages so we decided to “warm up” the board a bit by moving the planchette around the board.  We then placed the planchette back to the centre of the board and I asked if there are any spirits in the room with us.  The planchette whizzed to YES.  My legs were shaking, but mainly out of excitement that contact had really been made.  The planchette moved a few more times around the board, going to a few letters and then stopped.  The board then remained silent.  We closed it down and said we shall be back the following night.

The next evening came and I was really looking forward to it.  I “felt” something all evening in my room and somehow knew that we would have a successful evening.  We both sat down and right after I asked if anyone was with us, the planchette immediately moved to YES.  We tried to figure out who it was but instead of putting the letters through the hole of the planchette the spirit tried to just point, which was useless as I have a rounded planchette.

After explaining how they must use the planchette, it worked better.  Unfortunately, the letters on the board were really hard to read with the gothic font and being too dark; especially by candlelight it was becoming frustrating.  We finally managed to work out that it was my Grandfather’s sister who came to speak to my mother.  Her name was Elsie but everyone referred to her as Kay (apart from my mother who called her Elsie) and the planchette kept moving to “K”.  When we asked if it was Elsie, the planchette moved to YES.  My mum told her how much she missed her and loved her and the planchette kept moving to L and then going to my mum so far and fast that it almost fell off the glass .. after a while I asked if L meant LOVE and it moved to yes.

My mother and Elsie were very close, closer than she was to her own mother.  My mother was a little dubious that this really could be Elsie because during her physical life she was a total Atheist and denied any possibility of spirits or life after death.  We continued a short while after but didn’t wish to push it with too many questions – making contact with our family was already such a big step.    I said goodbye to close the board but the planchette moved to NO.  At this point I started shaking, this time out of fear .. why won’t the spirit say goodbye.  I boldly asked “Why won’t you go, Who are you?”.  The planchette moved to “I” “E” “B”.  Oh My GOD!!! This was my grandfather as well.  “I” “Ernest” “Bradshaw”.  My mother and I just stared at each other.  I said “Grandad, is that you?”, the planchette moved to YES.  My mother asked “Dad, is that really you?”, again the planchette moved in a little circle around YES.  I asked if my Nan was there too, but he didn’t answer.  During their lives, my Nan and Elsie really didn’t like each other at all, so this was probably the reason – although I always assumed that people leave their “feelings” behind when they leave their physical body.  But it would explain why Elsie and my Grandad were both with us without my Nan.

We didn’t push the board any more that evening. I was exhausted, my mother was in a pleasant kind of shock and when we said goodbye again the planchette moved to Goodbye and we closed down the board, thanking them for joining us and told them we would do it again the following night.  Now that we made contact we wished to try and find out if it really was them.

The following day I printed out big clear letters and used some white tack to hold them in place over the original lettering.  It looked a bit amateurish but I didn’t care – the board was frustrating and draining with such difficult lettering that this was the best option.  The glass covered the board and lettering and so the planchette could still glide effortlessly over it.   That evening we sat down, and again, almost immediately, we received contact. However, this was different and not the same.  The board was sluggish, slow and we couldn’t get any sense out of at all.  We knew we had someone else but it felt as though many spirits were fighting over who to control the planchette.

The air was thick with activity, although it was a hot evening outside, it seemed to get very cold and the whole room was filled with tapping, knocking and candles making strange noises.  Despite my annoyance at the spirits not using the board to communicate I ignored their attempts of attention and I asked if my Grandad was with us.  Suddenly the board came strongly alive, YES. To be sure I asked what the first letter of his name was.  The planchette moved to “E”.  I also asked if his sister was with him, YES was the reply.  I said what is the first letter of your sister’s name that my mum called her by, “E” was the reply (for Elsie).  I started reminiscing with my Grandad about when I was little and the things we used to do – I kept it simple mainly with just YES and NO answers – for some reason they were not too good at spelling and seemed only to be able to give us the first few letters of each word, which is almost impossible to decipher.

My mother asked some questions but my Grandad ignored her, he only wished to speak to me tonight.  I was getting tired and although I wanted to ask much more I did ask if he visits me often, YES he said.  That was enough for me now I was drained and I didn’t want to push my luck.   We closed down the board, said our goodbyes, thanked them and wished them peace.  But the residual energy remained thick.

Spirits were still lingering and so I told my mum that I don’t want to touch the board now for a couple of weeks until I feel the air is clear.  I didn’t realise at the time that the more you use the board the more spirits it attracts.  For the next couple of nights I would lay in bed and see shadows, lights moving around my room and hear knocking and tapping… the tapping especially, which sounded like someone tapping on the glass of my board.  I ignored it all apart from telling them to leave.. and after a couple of days the residual energy was clearing and spiritual activity was ceasing.

Since my mum is back home, I have tried a couple of times to use the board on my own but I haven’t had any luck as yet.  Probably because I am more weary of it, being on my own, and also because I am too tired in the evenings.  I do have a spiritual friend coming around on Thursday evening so I think I shall ask if she would like to use the board with me then … it will be interesting to see who comes forward to speak with us.   *** Anyone attempting to use a board, please read up on how to protect yourself and how to close down the board properly.  I cannot stress this enough.
