Cover Reveal: The Disciple

I will be self publishing my debut book in early January. I'm doing final edits now. Until then enjoy the cover. Robert Baird, a fellow Australian, did an amazing job! Those are my hands. I'm excited and nervous, and I'm grateful to everyone who has supported me to accomplish this goal.

Listen With Your Heart


"Wisdom is born in the heart and then spoken." My guide, Gegu, said this to me when I read that line. "Do you listen to spirit with your heart or mind, my son?"
I hear you in my mind.
Smiling, Gegu responded, "But do you listen with your heart?"

I don't know who to credit for the photo :(

Often clients have an expectation about what spirit will or won't say and are surprised and/or disappointed when it doesn't happen. Spirits have the personalities they had when they were living. If your father didn't talk much when he was living he will be quiet in spirit. A good medium will connect with his personality and see memories that were important to him to establish proof, but dad may have nothing to say.

My experience is that negative emotion and behaviour is softened or eliminated in spirit. For example, initially, to connect and be factual, I will describe a violent alcoholic. Once the connection is made those feelings will evaporate and only the good qualities in the dad will remain. Often when I connect to a spirit who mistreated my client, the client will say, “tell him/her to go away. I don't want to speak to him/her.”

The healing vibration is always 'on' around/within me. When clients come for readings they will also receive healing. The 'bastard' in spirit is here because to heal you I also have to heal them, and I might connect to generations of bastards and victims. I'm healing consciousness. For me, spirit is real and living and past events are current.

It's rare not to connect with the spirit the client wants, but it does happen. Sometimes the spirit may have nothing to say or doesn't like the medium. Depending on the personalities of the the spirit and client, the energy of expectation and desperation sometimes hinders or prevents me from connecting. Despite this, I always believe when we think about someone in spirit they're there.

Listen with your heart ;).

Cancer, Energy Healing & Possible Reasons For a Healthy Response


In early October I saw a client in Ararat, Victoria, who had cancer in her stomach and liver. She had a 7 cm and 5 cm tumour, and after the first session booked another two days later. Unknown to me she had, from the chemotherapy, been having nose bleeds and the inside of her nose was inflamed and full of sores. The sores disappeared after the first session and, according to her, every time she felt nauseous she thought about me and the feeling subsided. Initially, she contacted my host and said, (I'm paraphrasing) “ don't think that I'm crazy, but the sores have gone,” and that made her book another session. As part of her treatment, the tumours were rescanned 5 days after. They were now 3 cm and 1 cm, and the specialist had never seen anything like it.

I've been told all this second hand and don't yet have a testimonial, but the information is accurate. I believe the tumour will completely disappear, but unfortunately the chemotherapy will continue to make the client ill. I've mentioned before that I don't have any medical training or qualification, but I've been told, and if you do know, please share, that because the tumour has shrunk, the chemo will attack a higher percentage of healthy cells.

In my last post I talked about an unsuccessful cancer healing and the possible reasons why. In this healing I believe these factors contributed to the positive outcome:

Disclosure: the client fully disclosed her illness. It surprises me how many clients come for a specific reason, but won't tell me. Testing me to see if I'll find the problem limits the healing response. Often I'll find the illness regardless, but game playing agitates me and disrupts the flow of information – cellular and anatomical images, conversations with spirit and client's energy fields – I see. I know something is off, but I can't determine what it is.

Honesty: tell me how you feel, and being sceptical is fine, but being honest about it is better. Faith without expectation benefits healing, but you don't need to have faith in me. Be honest about that. I have faith, and its my job to make believers out of sceptics.

Awareness: when client's notice an improved health change, and again, I'm surprised by how many don't, the positive energy accelerates healing.

Gratitude: be grateful :).

It's not a big list, and I encourage you to read the previous post. I don't believe we should over complicate healing, and though there are many subtle influencing factors that may or may not affect the outcome, it's difficult to collect a body of evidence to prove or disprove theories.

Talk soon :).

Energy Healing Success and Failure

This week, a lady who had a healing with me twelve months ago approached a friend and asked if I'd ever done any successful healings. My friend's response was, “yes, many.” The lady had cancer, had had a session with me and hadn't experienced a positive health response. She then visited another healer who advised her that I was a learner and wasn't connected to a divine power. Not surprisingly, he didn't heal the woman either.

I prefer to share positive stories to give people hope, but if you've come to one of my events or attended a session with me you'd hear me say, “I don't know what will happen during a healing or after, but I have faith and I'm often surprised by outcomes,” and this, “sometimes I'm not successful and I don't make excuses for this, I move on.” On the welcome page on my website is, “Although I’ve done numerous successful healings, I’ve also been unsuccessful many times. Some clients have had a nil or negligible health response.” 

I know I would’ve said these things or similar to the lady. I also would’ve discussed, even if she didn’t notice any changes to her health, booking another session. I believe, in some healings, the first healing addresses mental health issues and eases fear. A second healing may not be successful either, but many clients have had positive health outcomes after the second session.

I'm sorry that the lady has cancer, that I was unable to help her and I'm disappointed that another healer has misled her. I've heard similar judgements from alternative/spiritual healers many times and all of them aren't getting positive health responses. I could ask strangers in the street to do a healing and the recipient would feel something: tingling, warmth, a peaceful feeling, or experience immediate or gradual positive health. With modalities of energy or spiritual healing, my experience has been that accreditation doesn’t guarantee success.

I'd like everyone who came for a healing to have a positive health response, and, at times, it frustrates me this isn't the case. In my experience it's not for these reasons: belief (I’ve had success with sceptics many times), karma, soul contract, timing, or any other metaphysical reason some spiritual healers give.

We're all responsible for our past and present and in control of our future. That may seem like a heartless statement to an innocent victim of crime and illness, but I'm responsible for the death of the person who died last night in a drink driving accident. I drink, I drive, sometimes too fast, and when I was younger I drove after and while I was drinking. Potentially, I could've killed myself and someone else. I haven't driven after drinking alcohol for decades, but I've still contributed to the death-while-drink-driving vibration. 

Sometimes the habitual patterns/vibrations of generations of family and community seem insurmountable, but I'm certain that in every healing a window of opportunity is created for health to manifest. If clients monitor their thoughts and are willing, they can change lifestyle, social, emotional, and health conditions.

With all illness I've noted that there are some influencing factors that may – I say may because I've had positive responses with all these factors present – restrict success:

Medication: I'm not qualified to talk about medication, nor do I advise anyone to go off prescribed medication, but often I'm aware that treatment is affecting the immune and other natural systems of the body. I encourage clients to talk to their doctors and specialists about all health related topics.  

Desperation: I understand why people are desperate to heal or to connect with someone in spirit, but that emotion interferes with both processes. Wanting something causes tension in the subtle energy systems of mind and body, while allowing relaxes those systems.   

Expectation: I appreciate that people are excited to see me, but if you expect an outcome you may leave disappointed. Have no expectations and then be grateful for any discernible change. Gratitude is a powerful creating force.

Denial: This is tough for anyone to hear, but some people don't want to get well. This state of being is a debilitating addictive behaviour. This is different than being exhausted or overwhelmed by the struggle to be well. I have compassion for that situation and patience and hope for the person.

I believe timing and synchronicity is something we create, not the universe. The universe/field of consciousness responds to our intent, will and action, and with energy healing I only need a tiny vibrational shift/pathway to create change. The best path for this is honesty: are you afraid, are you lazy, and do you answer these questions with, “Yes, but …” No excuses, blame, or denial. It's cliché, but the truth will set you free. 

Sometimes, I'm not successful. Client's personality, circumstance and my experience may help me determine why, but I won't make excuses or mislead anyone.

In the last four weeks clients have shared these success stories: a lady booked for surgery to remove a gallstone, after one healing, is now symptom and pain free, another lady, also after one healing, believes her prolapsed uterus and bladder have repositioned and she has no discomfort during her period, a lady with suspect cells on her cervix, after one healing and further investigation is now healthy, another lady with a genetic immune system disease, after one distant healing, is symptom and pain free (she experienced excruciating spinal pain daily) and is off  the medication and steroids that were prescribed.

I’m grateful to have client’s trust and faith and I’m committed to improving and understanding my healing craft.

Sunrise at Wild Horse Mountain, Queensland

Maree and I got up at 4:30 AM to watch the sunrise at Wild Horse Mountain lookout in Beerwah, QLD. We haven't had much time together because of my work commitments, and this was a great way to start the weekend. 





 Glass House Mountains. Looking West.

Rise of The Dark Angel!


Every now and then someone believes that I'm working for the dark side, and the accusation always comes from another healer, psychic, or from someone who follows spiritual practices. The latest story is that I'm a dark angel and, surprisingly, it's from someone that had a successful healing with me. Without being told I intuited the location and size of a cyst (apparently, the cyst could be felt under the skin) and within hours the cyst had gone. I also accurately described and communicated with numerous spirit from the lady's past.

Client's experience a wide range of responses during healings, but the one that causes me to be described as the Darkest Knight is a feeling of arousal in varying degrees. It's no different than a shoulder twitching, rapid eye movement, uncontrollable sobbing, or outbursts of laughter. It's an energetic explosion that needs to happen. Even now, after years of doing this, I still can't determine when it will happen or who it will happen to. It's not one of the more common responses, it's just the one that's remembered and talked about the most.

There are many causes and reasons behind this response: repressed emotion (all emotions), repressed sexuality, desire, being in a loveless and sexless relationship, past or generational abuse, longing for and fear of change, joy, the expression and experience of love, and I'm certain there are many situations and feelings I haven't experienced yet.

I always handle these situations respectfully and most of the time I'm unaware my client has experienced this response. My attention is elsewhere: looking at images from my client's past, talking to spirit, and investigating cellular and anatomical images.

This month I sought advice from two respected mediums and healers, one here in Australia and one in the USA, and they both praised my integrity and supported my conclusions about the reasons behind this response.

I believe there's a lot of misinformation about spiritual/energy healing and superstition surrounding what it is and isn't. Often, the ones talking about negative or dark energy have no idea what they're talking about. I prefer to focus on the positive aspects of my work, and if I'm working with dark angels, they're bloody good healers ;).  

Bush walking at Mt Mee with my family. It's what dark angels do to relax ;)

Happy Father's Day Simon!

I've been away from home for two weeks in VIC doing healings and readings and I've neglected my blog. I always have good intentions to post regularly, but my days are long and I don't have the energy. The trip was a success and I'm grateful to new hosts and clients for trusting me and having faith. I've been advised that two clients had cysts and a suspect tumour disappear overnight and I'm confident there will be further positive responses. As always the readings were fantastic and I'm grateful to spirit for their support and love. I'll post a meatier post later. Talk soon :).

I missed my family and arrived home on father's day to be greeted by this!

Max is loved & he loves the puppy too!

Medium – Physic Readings With a Dwarf & a Donkey


Thank you to new hosts, Sushi in Cairns and Monica in Sydney, and to everyone who trusted me to do a healing and reading. Thank you spirit, healers, Gegu, Jesus and family for always turning up and having faith in me. Donkey, you rock!

This week, I read an advertising blurb for a medium that said he was accompanied by a dwarf, Bernie, from another spiritual realm. Hobbit? I may have to dedicate a page on my website to the mythical God, Donkey, from that other spiritual realm: the madness of my mind ;). Possibly, man accompanied by dwarf is a brilliant medium, but it's curious that people take him seriously after his Weekend at Bernie's.

Just quietly though, Donkey is real ;). To be fair, I have had experiences with dwarfs in spirit that appear to be not from around here. Walk about dudes!

I've noticed that when I'm doing back to back readings and healings similar information and experiences group together. I had three deaths during child birth, three hangings, two Andrews booked appointments in the same day – this is surprising because 90% of my clients are women – Andrew was also a common name in spirit, and I had three clients, not connected, with Maltese bloodlines.

Names from spirit, for me, can be difficult to hear. I'll often get a sound like name or the strong letter, but that is improving. 60% of the time I get the name, although sometimes it's the middle or surname. I'm spirit's puppet and they're smarter than the average bear. They often give me information about a living person that client's know, and then direct me to ask for that person's full name. The name is shared by the spirit that's communicating. In one instance I was given information about a living John, a name I don't have difficulty hearing, and then a woman connected to him who had breast cancer, two kids, and a son Daniel. Her name was Melissa Elizabeth. Elizabeth was the name of my client's mother-in-law and it was, Dorothy, her middle name that spirit was saying to me. Once my client heard the name Dorothy, everything I'd told her at the start of our conversation made sense.

My work is emotional, exciting and often funny. With one client spirit shouted the name, Bruce, over and over as soon as she entered the room. She didn't know any Bruce's, living or dead. I talked to her about a man who suicided, and the details about his life and death were accurate. I adopted his personality and mannerisms, and my client laughed and cried. Both of us commented that he was a joker, his name was Wayne. Bruce Wayne, Batman! Yes, and the Joker :).

Talk soon, Simon, Gegu and Donkey, “Donkey? … Donkey! Oh, there you are. I didn't see Frodo come in.”

It gives me great pleasure to introduce Judy Croome to my online community. Judy is a talented writer, generous, genuine, and one of the nicest people I've met online. I've read her book, Dancing in The Shadows of Love, and enjoyed it. Judy's offering free copies of DANCING IN THE SHADOWS OF LOVE to two lucky blog visitors, in the format of your choice.

I'll also give away one free skype reading or distant healing. If you want to be in that draw mention reading or healing in your comment. Don't forget to leave your email :).

BOOK DESCRIPTION: Lulu is different to others. Once, she believed, she had a friend to love her. Then that friend betrayed her and Lulu learned that hate is safer than love. When she begins her new life at the Court of St Jerome in the Old Sea City, she finds people who must fight their personal demons of hatred, ambition and greed. Embraced in St Jerome’s fold, Lulu learns to trust again, perhaps even to love.
Nothing, however, is as it seems and Lulu discovers that love doesn’t always wear the face of the one you yearn to call beloved.

Lyrical and atmospheric, buoyed by touches of magical realism, this compelling spiritual story explores the sacrifices people make in the pursuit of their dreams. Lulu’s quest, and that of Jamila and Zahra too, is to find the divine love that will fulfil their hopes and save their souls...if they can recognise the masks of those who seek to lead them astray.

Please tell us why you love writing?

I write because I believe that words have great power: they can bring comfort, joy and hope. They can reveal secrets and lies. And, while they may not change the world, they can - at their best - change people's lives, even if only for a moment. I hope that, in some small way, my writing opens new doorways of awareness for those who are touched by my stories.

What are you writing now?

I’ve just finished a volume of poetry called A LAMP AT MIDDAY, which will be available in print end June 2012, and eBook later in the year. I’m currently researching my next full-length novel (about child murders and forgiveness) and aim to start writing the first draft after July when we’re back from two weeks holiday in the bush.

If you could travel back in time and talk to yourself, what age would you be and what would you say?

I wouldn’t want to travel back in time – the age I’m at now is the first time I’ve really been at peace with myself and my human frailties. At the risk of being superficial and vain, I wouldn’t mind looking physically like I did at the age of 32. And then I’d say to myself “Be happy with your weight, not everyone is meant to be size zero!”

If you had the opportunity to talk to high school students, what would you talk about and why?

I’d talk to them about kindness. I’d say that giving in to anger and sarcasm is like planting weeds in a field: easy to sow and soon becoming a wilderness that ensnares all who walk through that field. But kindness is like an acorn: we can’t stay to watch that small seed we dropped into the ground grow and grow; we’ll probably never know the people who take shelter under its branches…but, if we have the inner strength to choose compassion for another’s actions when it’s easier to be angry with them, one day, many years or lifetimes in the future, we may stumble along, battered by life’s storms and, finding shelter, realise that the branches protecting us are those of the acorn we once planted long before, now grown into a magnificent oak tree.

Can you share a defining moment in your life?

My husband and I met when we were both accountants (he has now specialised in tax law and become a lawyer – you can imagine the slew of jokes he’s subjected too!). As is usual on early dates, we were asking each other deep and profound questions. I asked Beric why he decided to specialise in tax. His answer changed my life! He said, “The figures spoke to me.” I realised, that in nearly 15 years of accountancy, the figures on a page had never, ever spoken to me. Not once. I asked myself, If figures didn’t speak to me, what did? The answer was “words” – so I went back to uni and started studying English literature. The rest, as they say, is history.

What's on your bucket list that would surprise your family and friends?

I’m afraid I’m pretty much an open book to my family and friends. The only thing that may surprise those who knew me before I started writing is how serious I am about my career as a writer. Most of them see it as my little hobby that keeps me busy (and sometimes quiet!)

And, because we love them, do you have a ghost/supernatural story to share?

Oh, I have lots of fabulous supernatural stories, especially about my late Dad, who was an extremely talented dowser and healer. But my favourite personal story is from the days when I still did evolutionary astrology charts. Before starting a new chart, I’d do a cleansing ritual in my room and then say an opening prayer for protection and guidance, and call on the ancestral spirits of the person whose chart I was doing to help me. One evening, Beric was sitting reading the newspaper in the lounge and I felt a strong urge to start a new chart for a lady who was having a tough time coming to terms with the loss of her mother. So, off I went, closed the door and started my rituals. When I came to the calling up of the ancestral spirits, this lady’s mother – a VERY strong energy – just wooshed into the room and took over. I burst into tears, ran out of the room straight to where my husband (the accountant!) sat reading his paper and, between hysterical sobs, told him what had happened. A minute of silence, except for the rustle of the newspaper, passed. Then another minute. And then, just as I was about to ask him if he’d heard what I said, Beric lowered the paper and, in a calm, steady voice, said to me, “Jude, I think I’d like a cup of tea, please.” Well! Talk about being brought back to earth with a bang! But his reaction was probably the best thing at the time, because it grounded me instantly. And now we just laugh about it!

Where's Judy?

I’m most active on Twitter ( @judy_croome ) and on Goodreads ( Judy Croome ), but you’ll also find me on my blog “Judy Croome: Author on the Prowl”, Linked In or FaceBook.

Judy, thank you for visiting. Readers, Judy mailed me her book after I commented on another blog, and a few weeks later another package arrived in the mail! Judy, thank you for being you :)

Belief is a Product of Human Consciousness


This is what you'll find on Facebook. Visit sometime :)

Living as a spiritual being doesn't mean conforming to spiritual belief systems. Belief is a product of human consciousness not experience. My experiences and conversations with nature are happening now. They don't happen because of the experiences of a past life. If my soul has lived a thousand lives those experiences and knowledge are also the experiences and knowledge of your soul.
Soul contracts, soul mates, karma, the hierarchy of ascended masters/spirit, are all human belief systems. When you put aside everything you've read, heard and then believed to be true – including the stories I share – and only focus on what you experience, then you're experience will be the only true thing. My stories are interesting or boring depending on the listener. They're only true for me.
Our belief systems remain in consciousness/the universe, and connecting with, intuiting, channelling that information doesn't make it true. Creating 'miraculous' healings are the building blocks needed to create another, but with subtle differences. Be brave enough to create something new. Spirit and the energy/vibrations of the past will assist you, but spirit are waiting for us to be original and creators.
The Christ consciousness is an energy created by human consciousness. Jesus was a mother's son, a boy and then a man. That's what made him powerful and interesting. Be that! A son, a daughter, a man, or a woman, and be magnificent.
We love you. ♥

My Dog Died & My Heart Broke


On Wednesday morning I went downstairs and Tink was unconscious. I rushed her to the vets and I was advised she may have a brain injury or illness. She was in a coma and had zero neurological responses. The vet asked if I wanted to put her down, as she couldn't guarantee, because of Tink's condition, that treatment would help.

Tink asked me, “let me go,” but I wasn't brave enough. I've worked with clients in palliative care before, and their souls ask to be freed, but Tink was family, and I ignored her plea. The vet wrapped her in heat blankets, shaved parts of her body and hooked her up to a drip, took blood for testing, and consulted with staff. Tink recovered over the day, was able to walk, drink and feed, but she deteriorated overnight and by morning was in a coma again.

I spoke to the vet by phone and this time I was able to advise her to euthanise her, but I asked her to wait until I was there. I didn't want Tink to die without family beside her. She died three minutes before Maree, Julia and I arrived. We viewed her body, I held her cold ear, and our hearts broke. I cry every time I think about her.

I know that Tink will visit in spirit, but the last conversation we had haunts me. She knew she was dying, and she wanted me to let her go. 

“Tink, I love you, baby girl. We're all going to miss you.”
