hi guys well computer problems get you every time don't they.life is good at the moment under the circumstances. Mandy working hard to get her life to where she wants it to be and so am i. where that is we don't know yet but keeping the faith. i have been busy with classes but now time to get back to workshops. we did the capel fest not long ago and that was a good day i really enjoy meeting the people and now we don't have another fair on till June but that is our choice and now we will only be doing readings with the aura machine not selling our products which is good in one way as everything gets to heavy from time to time. pressure on me to finish typing swannies book but needed to sit back and re assess things a bit as time has been busy for me with looking after Robert and seemed to be in Perth a lot of late but that is slowing down as well. vita came and did a channelling evening for us so that people down here could understand it a bit more and how fascinating was it for not only those that came but also for me. lights flashing every where through the room, spirit overshadowing to the point where i could not see anything or anyone else in the room. unbelievable. i could not possibly write the experience accurately all i know is that everyone was talking about what each person experienced. we will be doing it again later in the year.Vita's channeling is moving forward every time she channels and after listening to the events of another channeling evening and the channels not have much success is that with what we do it does take many years of practice experience and perseverance. Mandy and her guides are preparing her for her next part of her lessons with her channeling as she always tell them to just take her away so she is unaware of what is happening and this cannot be to far away after last weeks circle. at last i am learning to meditate as teaching all the time i am not always able to do this and now i have my i pod (thank goodness for modern technology) i am able to this before going to bed each night and not disturbing any one. yeah Sonia choquette is coming to Perth and how unlucky am i as it is a church weekend so will only be able to go for the day as would have loved to have listened also to Dr Brian Weiss. never mind i will get it over at one point. this week has been a sad week as apart from my brother flying home from N.Z. after having a heart attack but all is well thank goodness, some one i was friends with at my last workplace lost his life on a motorbike. so sad only 38 and everything to look forward to. i am sitting here thinking about my spiritual experiences here so i can type it in and in doing this i just remembered that as i was going to my sister in laws i was asking spirit what was up as she never ring very much and asks for us to come over and that is when i heard the words "Geoff's had a heart attack and is in hospital" so i now knew why she wanted to speak to me. had a few readings this week so that has been a good experience as i do like to do them. hopefully my art classes will start soon so that i can better my portraits that i have been doing in the charcoal as so would like to do the spirit portraits. Robert had to do some photography the other night as he needed night shots so we went off to the cemetery with another couple and whilst he was taking photos my friend and i just sat by a grave and had a lovely evening. they are so different at night and have a good feel.

Life passes quickly and when you turn around and see what has been happening i wonder how fit it in at the moment.Robert is still home on the sick list and Mandy has been unwell and had to have surgery so this meant that i really had to take a look at what has been happening and make a few decisions and one of these unfortunately was to cancel our psychic fair that we were going to hold in capel on the weekend of the 13 march. I have been down this road before with spirit and now know that when i am not in a good space with what is happening on a personal level it is best to step back and not feel guilty about doing things for some one else as my family are just as important. but i know that we are being looked after and the fair will happen at the right time for everyone. Robert has been off work five months now and still the recovery is slow. Also sorting our situations with some of my children and was sitting in the most wonderful place today with a friend and said to him when are we not responsible for our children, when are they ever old enough to say that is it. I am figuring NOW is a good time for me to do this as i am learning more and more about letting go and not have the guilt's or if i could do things better but no i have done all i can do and now for the time has come for myself and Robert to go on our journey whilst we are able. i am also learning about those that i come in contact with and how they affect me and what impact they have on my life spiritually and physically and have let go of lots i can tell you and i feel that i am doing what i preach. that is this is my/your journey and no one Else's and i must take responsibility for all that i do and say without feeling that i have to think of others all the time. and family first comes into this. why do i question that what i know to be right? Mandy has gone back to work and hopefully full time will come about for her shortly as she needs to be doing things that are also right for her and i am sure that when the times comes and she makes her decisions they will be for the better and her spiritual journey will begin to take shape in a more serious way than at the moment as she too is doing the physical first and the spiritual latter. our place of cirlces has moved as well and for the better i think as a friend has an office space that she allows me to use on the Tuesday mornings and we have some new people in the group who are bringing in a lovely energy and improving what we do. our spiritual drawing are turning us all in to artist and also they are learning to develop their channeling and that is bringing through great wisdom, this is also happening on the Wednesday as this group is advanced in their own right as they work through some of their own challenges and are grateful for the support that they receive each week. i feel privileged to be able to work with wonderful spirits. when i look back to the way i taught to the way we do things to day i have progressed and it is not so strict and i have learnt that everyone needs to be taught differently as individuals not as a group. so my lessons are becoming greater. i have also notice that the energy is also changing around myself specially in my healing sessions as they are becoming stronger. also at church woe is me i had to do the philosophy and i don't like doing that as it makes me very nervous but shows i guess that we are more alike than we realise. the channeling started to come through in parts and even took me by surprise as i have not done that for many years. Mandy says it makes sense but i don't know as i don't always recall what is said. Vita's channeling is progressing better than i thought and Mandy and i have been learning more about the energy side of things as there has only been the three of us as Kylie is taking a break and needs time to sort some things for herself. just when we think we have learnt it all it starts all over again it is never ending but hey i love it even though there are serious times when i think i am over all this i am not progressing where i want to be (i ask myself where this is all the time), just the other night i was going to cancel everything and go and get a day job like Mandy as i was very disillusioned, was it with spirit or me. it was with me i am just a normal person trying to the best i can for spirit with spirit.

Mandy will be happy that i am doing update as she is always letting me know that i have not been on here for awhile and i do apologise as time does slip away from me now and again and since i first started doing this i have be come busy. Well i hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and the New Year started well for you. We have resumed circles with some great lessons from spirit already showing us the way. It was sad that Gloria is unable to attend now but sometimes we have to think of what is best for us as and individual and as a teacher i can only take them as far as i am able and as much as they want me to. We are doing spirit drawings at the moment and i must say i am impressed with all my students and their artistic abilities. i have been fortunate that when the spirit drawings come through some one can take them as a loved one that has passed over so i am going to take the plunge and take some lessons as i would love to be able to capture more of the characteristics of those that i am drawing but like everything time will tell. We have been sending healing to Haiti and the way we have been doing it has been we feel successful as each time we do the healing we received news on the telly the next day that some one had been found alive. What and experience it was for us to be able to be helping on the soul level with the energies that were being sent to this country. Mandy has lost a loved one in the last week and has found this a profound experience and how through the knowledge and insight she has gained from her spiritual learning's she was and still is helping those that are left behind to come to terms with the loss and grief and the understanding of what happens to the soul when it is time to move forward from that of the physical plane to the spiritual realm. One of my circle members from where i live also lost her mother and went to a friend just for a hug and unfortunately did not receive what she needed at the time which is very sad. But then some people back away in time of need for friends for fear of not being able to comfort or give words of understanding. This lovely lady came to circle and was able to release the tears and receive the understanding she needed at the time as her mum lived in another country. This is where circle comes in to benefit others as she was able to have the tears, the talking, healing and hugs without having the feeling of imposing on others as we are a family who are there when we need them the most.
I have found many people changing of late within the circles and of course some stay and some go and that is great as they need to experience much in this life time and many teachers as well for their own benefit.
Mandy and i are this year are putting on a physic fair of our own to fund raise for a wheelchair for a country lass who suffers juvenile arthritis as our city hospitals do not have enough to go to all the kids who are in need and hence the country misses out over the city due to not being able to get them back to the hospital on time. We were trying to raise the money through our church as we give all monies back into the community (cant see the sense in putting in the bank when there is so many in need),so we decided to go with a big fundraiser to move it along quickly.
Much is happening in my personal life and although i don't like to share all that happens i would like to ask if you can to send healing to my husband as he has been off work now for 3 months at the moment will be off for a further three and could be as long as 12 months. I thank you for this. We are off to Bali for 7 days today as i booked last year knowing that he would need a break and of course was still at work and under a lot of pressure so thought the break would be good not knowing that he would be on leave for this period of time. I am sure the holiday will do him good as he is looking forward to it and that is a good sign i am sure. We are taking our granddaughter Chanel with us and hope she has a good time. My son and his family and a couple of friends are coming along as well. Am i looking forward to it, i certainly am as it has been a hard and long few months and this is where i am always grateful for my circle time even though i don't let others know what is in my life just being with them helps me with lifting my energies and i get to have a laugh which is important in any ones life.
We are studying a book at the moment called the Soul Plan and a very interesting book to read and when i have a minute i will do a profile on it on the blog for you.
well i will leave it for now and come back on line soon. i wish you love and light on your journey in 2010 and know it will be as interesting as mine as i have lots of things i want to learn and study always comes into this. i have decided that when i am seventy i am going to take the piano lessons i always wanted as a child so that has given me a goal to look forward to the future (and it is a long way off yet). I do like to plan ahead.
20/12/2009. Before I start Mandy and I would like to wish you and your families a very Merry and Joyful Christmas and hope that you enjoy the time spent together with lots of love and laughter. Life once again is busy and still buying Christmas pressies and that is one thing i have trouble with as the children get older. Choosing the right gift for the right person so that we don't have to stand in line at the check outs after Xmas to return them. The circles in Perth went to share a Christmas meal at the local Chinese and was lovely to see those that i had not seen for awhile as they are in Mandy's circle. The last circle night for Tues circle was extra ordinary i must say as we invited a friend Kerryn from Geraldton to share the evening with us and what ever experienced came our way from spirit and not to be disappointed Vita channeled. How can you write what we see it is impossible to describe as the energy that suffered a stroke came back to visit us and the message was very important to all that was there and the energy talked for longer this time and you could tell that although the effects of the stroke were still there it was not as severe and it was explained that in time this would disappear as the energy became more comfortable but that it was for us personally to experience seeing this. The came a gentle man who have to say was but ugly and huge and although it sort of took our breathe away it was very interesting to experience and he had a good sense of humour with him in saying he could see that we were a bit frightened or maybe apprehensive with what was coming through at first but was pleased that we accepted the energy and has promised to come and visit in the new year. Lots of work for us all when the year begins as we will be doing lots of study this time around so that we too may progress in our learning. Me i have been studying the Quantum touch therapy and now doing my hours of prac which i am enjoying. Went and did a house cleansing with Vita and am so privileged for this opportunity to learn how she does it and to be able to be apart of what she sees and hears from those that are "stuck" here so to speak. It was the last church service today and it was interesting as we had a medium/psychic who i have not seen work before and found it enlightening. Mandy had put the Christmas songs together and that was great as they were all rocking with the modern tunes. We also accomplished putting together our first newsletter in the hope that it will bring understanding of Spiritualism to the forefront of those who attend our services each month. I even surprised myself with getting up and doing a message from a soldier who had popped in and i do tend to doodle when i am sitting and chairing the service, so while the medium had been working i drew a gentleman's face and low and behold that after the service Mandy said she showed the photo to the person receiving my information and she replied that it looked like her father the gentleman that came through. So how clever was that as i can tell you i am no artist when it comes to drawings.
Well i guess that is about it for now so i will say good bye to you for this year and look forward to sharing the journey in 2010 with you all.
Merry Christmas to each and everyone of you and oh happy birthday Mandy for Xmas day
29/11/09 boy has life got busy all of a sudden. Mandy and i went of to York to do a fair and it was very slow and many stalls the same so that is a shame but i still have fun. On the way up to pick Mandy up i kept seeing a lady who had died at the wheel of a car and thought mmm wonder if i will be doing a reading for some one she knows, but low and behold by the time we got there to York the lady had gone and did not connect to any one there at the fair. Mandy and i were having dinner at the hotel on Saturday night and as i was talking to Robert on the phone who is not well at the moment, she told me she felt some one touch her side. I explained to her that i had seen some one to the side of us and as we went to bed that night as we had to share in the hotel as there were no spare rooms left due to a large country wedding, i was woken by the sound of some one saying "watch out i am coming in" thinking it was Mandy i turned to find her fast asleep. So whoever that was i hope they had a good night sleep. We had the church service that weekend and had a lady come to do the service who did psychometry and had great feed back as she read for everyone who was there that day. I will invite her back next year as it is time to do the rosters and have everything in order (or trying to). Mandy is busy putting together the psychic and healing fair we are holding here in Capel in March next year so if people down here dont know what we do they soon will. But it will also be a fundraiser for the community as it is all about giving as well as receiving. Also about others sharing their skills in the community so that they too get known for their modalities. I went and learned a new healing modality Quatamn Touch which i found great and also had healing for my eyes as they are still healing and found that beneficial. I have many hours of practice before i can become a practioner but hey i think it is worth it. Nearly time to close for the year and soon we will begin a new with 2010 and havent there been lots of lesson on the learning side of things. Many people have left work and started new jobs, relationships have changed many people are finding the courage to move forward instead of being stuck where they dont want to be and people moving from the city to the country and visa versa. Is this preparing us for the changes that will occur when we go to the year of the Mayan Calender. Only time will tell as there are many scenarios out there as to what will happen but like you i will wait and see to myself. Time to go now so will be back with more to write shortly as had a busy weekend.
1/11/2009 Well this is the week i have been waiting for ages to come. I am going on Wednesday up to Perth to have my upper and lower eye lids done and anyone who has this problem with excess skin will understand why. For the last 3 years i have had trouble driving and reading etc because the skin on the upper eye lids actually get so heavy that my eyes close and this happens while i am driving and hence is dangerous so when going to Perth in the day i have to have many stops along the way if i don't want to go on the wrong side of the road. I had to give up a great job as a sales rep travelling all around down south for this very reason.The bonus will be not only driving but also reading and i get to wear eye makeup after several years. And maybe i will look 20 years younger (not holding my hopes here). This has been a great weekend as i went to my sister-in-laws house and we did Paverpol and made our first statue which was a lady sitting on a log with her long blue dress and shawl and Bev (same name as me)did hers in purple, so impressed were we that we are making another one this weekend so hopefully i will be able to see out of the eyes. I am only doing circle tonight and the Tuesday morning one is going to share the evening with the night girls and Mandy is taking the evening and says she is going to work them hard. Looks like a beautiful day outside so am going to make the most of it. I will update when i can see OK. Oh you know what i love about this procedure i am going to have, when i went to the specialist it was like going to the panel beaters with your car after an accident. They take photos and then they send you a quote and you have to pay up front all the way before surgery but i know it will be worth it in the end.
23/10/2009 Mandy and I did held a Reiki one course here in capel at the weekend and such lovely people to share the day and experiences with. There was laughter and even a few tears for a couple but that was good for those that needed it as there is a lot going in lives on an emotional level it seems and one lady had just lost her mum which was sad for her but a blessing for her mum as she had suffered a stroke. I was privileged to healing on this lady before she went to God as one of my students always says. Church on Sunday was great everyone enjoyed the philosophy and one lady emailed to say she buzzed all the way home. The medium who is a good friend of mine was excellent in the proof of survival she gave and has a gentle way about her and i saw people go up to her afterwards to say how they enjoyed the service. Excellent!. Did the circle on Monday night and always some one new coming along so that is also good even if it is for one night. But i did an exercise that a couple did not go along with but then i will be talking to them on the next night as it goes to show that they don't always listen to information that has been given in the past and work on the logic side of things. The Tuesday morning group was interesting as we discussed why when people are on the spiritual path they want to cross over now, so we talked about lessons that have to be learnt here to take us to a higher level there and understanding what life is about. One wanted to go back to become a guide but as i said to him you have to have the knowledge to go with it and be able to be good at what you do here to be there. We always talk about how wonderful the spirit world is and that we have no fear of death as we understand it and i think this is a part of why many want to cross over now instead of doing it tough here. But as i say to many of my students i have been around people long enough who have been on the spiritual path and facing death and still the fear comes to them at the end as they don't want to leave family, friends etc and worry about what will happen to them after they leave this world and also even though we know what we going to how can we be sure that it is there and that we will enter into the light once we have departed.
Me i want to live as long as i can with all my faculties as i love life here and yes i certainly don't want to leave my love ones. It has been 9 years this week since i lost my own father and that upsets me a lot as we were just beginning to spend those important times together and understand each other and making memories for the future. My brother was so lucky that he did that before my dad died as they started to go overseas each year so he has lots of good memories as it was not always easy for my brother when he was growing up as they did not always see eye to eye but maturity does alot for one as we get older. My mother still grieves to this day and gets angry with my dad for leaving her as she always envisioned living into old age together. We remember him every day as we go about our lives as i know that is what he would want and expect of us.
well i wont be able to go on line next week as i am having my eyes done, an upper and lower lift as i am having trouble with my sight because of all the skin that accumulates on the top lid. It affects my driving so know that it will improve everything about me and maybe with a little luck i will look twenty years younger. Robert cant understand why i am having it done but unless it is happening to you they don't. Went looking for a place to rent to see if it was viable for me to open up a shop here where i live but with being a very small town there is really no where suitable as only 2 shops for rent and a bit above my means to start with. still if it is meant to be it will happen when it is right for me.
i am doing a course for myself in November on quantum touch as i want to learn more healing modalities and did not have quite enough money saved, actually had none so on the way home from Perth the other day i asked spirit if they could help me with finding some of the money and i will find the rest. Well low and behold when i got home there was a cheque in the post and there was enough to cover the course i wanted so i was so thankful to them for providing it at the right time.
Well guys that is it for the moment until after the eye surgery and the swelling goes down. take care until next time and live each day as if it is your last. My son who loves food always eats every meal as if it is his last. Bye
15/10/2009Life has been not busy but steady. Mandy and i have been to an agriculture fair and although there were lots of people and i mean lots coming through the gate we did not sell very much indeed so we wont be going back there again next year. We have to try these events to see if it is viable for us at the end of the day, so we will just stick to the psychic fairs in the future. With the economic times at the moment and interest rates looking to rise people are being cautious and i don't blame them i would be the same. But hey it was a nice day although very cold and we met some lovely people. This weekend we have a reiki one course on and also the church and am looking forward to all of it and especially on Sunday when i will catch up with the medium who is not only a friend but a mentor as well. She has just been to America to do her Jose Silver training to take her further. I was asked to go but unfortunately was not available at the time. Many people are asking questions about the energy changes at the moment and some are more emotional than normal and some are learning about their relationships and having a closer look at themselves. Mandy has gone back to a day job as we don't make enough to keep us financially unfortunately but as i always say to people it is a great job but never consistent enough to leave a day job unless you are like John Edwards etc. Many of my friends went to see Lisa Williams when she came to Australia and thought she was wonderful so hopefully next time i will get to go and not be away. Robert is working hard and long hours so am getting to catch up on some paper work as i have lots of that to do. Am helping a friend write his story at the moment as well and that will be interesting when it is finished i think. Today some friends came from Perth for lunch so that was a nice surprise and it was lovely to catch up as we had all been on holiday recently. Lots of lovely cakes and strawberries as if i need the extra calories. I don't think so. Have not had my little boys this week as their mum is on sick leave and i do miss the little buggers when they are not here.
I had a great healing on Tuesday so i enjoyed that very much as i dont always allow myself the privilge. I certainly needed it.
