Have you ever wanted to return and fix something in the past? To jump into a DeLorean like Michael J Fox and hug someone before they were gone forever? So do our loved ones. They return from the Spirit World in mediumships sessions often because they have a message for us.

The great thing about being a clairvoyant medium is building a bridge for those that have passed to visit those still here. Often they visit with 20/20 hindsight never available when alive.

Life’s mysteries become easier to understand, and our loved ones can return to share their hindsight with us.

Just as we sometimes lie awake going over every sacrifice and sabotage in life, so can they. Except they can do something about it. They often choose to return to balance a bit of karma or help a loved one out. It’s a healing process of both sides. They’re not stuck, they’re visiting. This happened the other day in a mediumship reading:

Just behind Colleen’s right shoulder appeared an older lady from spirit. She was dressed all ready for Church in a floral two-piece with a lavender straw hat. In her little hands was a posy of flowers wrapped in a doily and she held these up to Coleen. But there was something strange: Her frail old body was bent over double.

She simply stood, not saying a word, holding up flowers.

Colleen recognised her great Aunt, but what had she come for, and why was she in such an uncomfortable position? It wasn’t like they were close, Great Aunty passed on when Colleen was only a tiny girl, but she chose to come through for the reading.

I tuned in to discover why her Great Aunt was here.

I sensed a huge burden had recently lifted from Colleen, allowing her freedom for the first time in a long while. She was tired from a long effort and her soul was weary.

Colleen filled in the rest of the story. For two years she nursed her husband through terminal cancer. It was a long, hard job, with not much support from her family. Now he was in spirit, she could get on with her own life. In a way, that burden had bent her double, too.

As Colleen told the story she remembered something. Both her husband and great Aunt died with exactly the same illness. Both required daily care by close relatives until the end. Colleen’s Great Aunt returned to present her with a bunch of flowers in recognition of the selfless care she gave to her dying husband.

She also returned because there wasn’t a chance for her to thank her own carers before she died, so thanking Colleen was a way to do do that and pay a debt.

Even though the rest of Colleen’s living family never acknowledged her effort, it was noticed by Spirit. Her Great Aunt saw when the rest chose to ignore it. The Aunt knew perfectly well the personal choices, struggles and actions Colleen made over the last years. What at first, seemed an unlikely meeting turned out to be a chance for closure and healing for both of them.

We can’t always tell who will come from spirit when we sit with a medium, and lots of times, Spirit knows what a person needs, even if they don’t. A mystery visit from an Aunt Colleen barely knew tuned out to be exactly what she needed for her own healing.

One of the best things about being a Spiritualist medium is creating reunions for those in spirit and their friends here. If you’d like to experience this for yourself, book a session here.
