i need help helping a spirit that has asked me to help it move on to the light. i have no experience in this and know no one with experience in this field. myself and a few others are looking into the matter, but it is SLOW GOING. i was kind of at a loss where to put this but hoping maybe someone will have some advice to offer.

well youre right, the two are related in some ways. my boyfriend is a freemason, which is fraternity that you have to apply to and be accepted into in order to join. in my boyfriends case, he wanted to be a shriner one day which requires you becoming a mason first. i also come from a masonic family. however i know hed be interested in discussing this with you as he does a lot of research on it himself. if you want to look under my friends list his handle is paradox. and a lot of posters have given you great advice. or who knows maybe hell sign on and quit reading over my shoulder and respond to this himself lol. have a great one

thanks for the input ill take it to heart

also ive been working on some new visualization techniques at night to help me get to sleep better and not be woken up 24/7. the one im fond of is trying to visualize a radio and turning the station/channel/frequency. however it seems that since ive moved to mn ive had the worst time actually visualizing anything. when i can get my mind quiet...i still feel a block. at this point i know its mind over matter and am working to get past my own little block on visualizations...but any help you can offer in regards to that will be greatly appreciated too.

ANYONE ELSE WHO MIGHT BE ABLE TO HELP.


okay so ive decided this is a perfect place to spill my guts thanks to the anonymity of this sight.
i could use some advice, helpful hints, guidance, input, or really whatever you want to share.
i know there are quite a few lightworkers and "sensitives" on this site as ive had the pleasure of meeting and chatting with a number of you.
basically put, i can be referred to as clairvoyant, clairaudient,clairalient, and claircognizant and possibly clairsentient. i am not strong, in my opinion, in these "abilities",i didnt "learn how to do this" (though i find its a constant learning process), i have no formal training, im not sure if the above words even truly apply to me,and i rarely talk about this with anyone outside of the women in my family, trent ,and a very few select friends. most people ive met view this as unusual and are skeptical, i however view this as a normal way of life, since ive not really known any other. in the past few years ive slowly come to embrace it more than i have since at some point in childhood i dedicated a LOT of time just trying to "turn this dang thing off" - which is kinda hard to do when you live in a "haunted" home with other "haunted" people. there was even a time in my life where i would send everything to my mom to be dealt with - thanks amber for being so cool about it. in texas, i found a fondness for a lot of our "regulars" who just normally want to be acknowledged or a part of whats going on. it actually had become quite comfortable the past few years i lived in texas.
moving to minneapolis this year i found that i moved into a house that not only has high activity but also houses so to speak a small vortex. throw the fact that spirits/souls seem to view me an energy magnet i had a very busy few months establishing some ground rules about our shared environment. most of the energy that comes through our home is transient though and doesnt hang around long. we did have some very negative energy early this year but finally with the help of trents masonic brother, father thomas, we were able to cleanse our home and lives of the negativity. each month that passes by the activity in our home grows in strength and occurence...mostly it is neutral and sometimes even positive so i dont have much of a problem there even if it is still disconcerting after almost three decades of dealing with this. the past six weeks or so i was very sick and often bed or couch bound and found that without my normal daily distractions that i was becoming hypersensitive - my house sounded like an airport terminal full of people and windchimes. to top that off my lights keep flickering in whichever room im in and electricity goes out when im in there from what i believe is an overload of communications or manifestations trying to come through. finally last week i was able to arrive at a compromise that i would spend at least a few hours one night of the week trying to listen and discern what was trying to be sent across to me in order to have a reasonable amount of peace and quiet the rest of the week, and to get them to stop provoking my animals to get me to listen. so here is my dilemna.
one of the spirits that is not transient and only passed away a few years ago that i normally see in my yard and street has very politely asked me to help them move on to their next existence... i.e. into the light in "dess'" case. i have no clue how to do this. i have no clue whom to go to for help. my mother doesnt have experience helping souls move on. and when trent spoke to father thomas on my behalf he promised to look into it but had no experience in the matter,himself.
so please if you have any input, help, offers, guidance, or ideas i am open to hearing them. ive promised "dess" i would look into this and try to find a solution in every place i could think of to look. really anything you have to offer is appreciated. thanks for taking the time to listen.

"Yesterday was a big day for our campaign to protect dolphins in Japan. It was imperative that we get Japanese media to cover the beginning of the dolphin hunting season—and more importantly, the worldwide opposition to it. And we succeeded!

We began by bringing all our international volunteers to a plaza near the U.S. Embassy. Our volunteers from around the world were lined up holding flags representing the 151 countries and 1.7 million signatures from this cause list! Several held strands of origami dolphins prepared by artist Peggy Oki, and we also had several inflated dolphin balloons for the cameras. I unfurled our long petition with all of YOUR NAMES—about 15 feet long! TV cameras and print journalists from all the major Tokyo media outlets were there to cover it.

I told the dozens of reporters that we were here to ask the Obama administration to help end the killing of dolphins. President Obama will be in Japan in November and could talk to the new Japanese Prime Minister about dolphins and mercury. (Note: the Japanese government is in transition as new elections are being held so we were advised that it would not be effective to go to the Fisheries agency).

I was then escorted by the Tokyo police, with media following along, across the street, up to the U.S. Embassy, along with volunteers Alyson Richards and Melissa Carbonne (who work with Hollywood celebrities in support of environmental issues), NASCAR driver Leilani Munter (who only accepts green sponsors for her winning race cars), and my colleague from Earth Island, Mark J. Palmer.

In front of the gates of the embassy, we met Mr. Bruce Howard, Counselor for Science, Environment and Health, representing the American ambassador. He accepted our petition, as I urged him to see that it gets to the President.

Our three volunteers each then talked with Mr. Howard telling him their own stories of why they had come halfway around the world to be here with me in Tokyo. It was an emotional meeting on what is most definitely an emotional day.

We still have a lot to do, but I feel like we accomplished an important goal—keeping this issue in the spotlight in Japan, reaching key decision makers, and hopefully educating more people in Japan about the atrocities taking place off their shores.

As for activities in the actual cove, reports are indicating that several dolphins were rounded up, a few were chosen for captivity and the others were released! So a small victory for the dolphins who escaped. The same thing happened last year when we went with cameras and media in tow. You can see that for yourself tonight on the Animal Planet mini-series, BLOOD DOLPHINS. It's directed and co-stars my son Lincoln. We follow up on THE COVE and then also take on other dolphin hotspots like the equally devastating activities in the Solomon Islands. It airs at 9:00 p.m. et/pt on Animal Planet.

Thank you all for your ongoing support. It is making a difference!

^ this is actually a little fb note from my prof LAST year. however i have been monitoring the situation since then and have some extra things to add...as i was adding it to my fb i thought i might as well post here considering so many minglers responded to it on fb

two nights ago i went to the redbox to hunker down with some flicks with the sweetie. we decided that with some comedies and action movies wed pick up a documentary on dolphins as well. i miss living on the gulf and i thought itd bring back some great memories and a feeling of home...
INSTEAD the documentary OPENED my eyes to some of the outrageously fallacious reasons the japanese fishermen in taiji japan use to BRUTALLY TRAP AND MURDER 23.000 dolphins A YEAR between the months of september and march. this documentary touches on many subjects including mercury poisoning, the pitfalls of our world wide intergovernmental organizations and, and the ugly arrogance of humans in regards to our environment. in the 1900s many people internationally rallied to change whaling policies. dolphins are whales...they are not part of our fish communities. why are we not insisting that they have the same rights as their larger brothers? why do we let organizations such as seaworld and your touristy swim with dolphins programs SUPPORT the INHUMANE MURDER of these majestic and wise creatures? PLEASE please please take an hour to watch this documentary (after the kiddoes are in bed) and to visit the website ive linked below.
this documentary has haunted my thoughts since ive watched it and our household at least is taking steps to become more self sufficient and battle world hunger on a different front than the fishing industry. (most of your whale meat is actually dolphin meat with insanely high amounts of mercury in it...and for you sushi lovers...do the research on what this refined delicacy is doing to your body) MOST japanese have NO IDEA this is being done...nobody has the right to commit such crimes against humanity and not answer to their own nation, neighboring nations, and the rest of the world.
By the way...the ONLY nations (less than you can count on your fingers) that allow japan to BUY their support and turn a blind eye on the policies are ones that have completely run their country to the ground and are unable to feed and care for their own people. this injustice must begin to be put to an end somewhere and the killing cove in taiji is an ideal place to begin such a movement. dont let brutality rule our race as humans...we are all a part of an interdependent web of life that should be treated with same respect and compassion we show our fellow man...if we are unable to do so we have no rights as human beings to belong here to our earth. youll find how this actually is a worldwide problem for our generation and the ones to come to stand up and solve if we wish to see future generations continue to inherit the earth. our planet cant afford the parts of our oceans that are already dying or dead...and when the oceans start to die there goes the planet...das Ende! l'estremita! el extremo y el fin!端

its always worth it to have your voice heard. listen to theirs and speak up.

i absolutely loved and i mean LOVED this book. sunday morning i sat perusing the paper and lo and behold i found out that wow now its a movie and its playing at a theatre near my house which isnt too over priced and i knew i just HAD to see it. so i finally drag my very sweet and extremely "tolerant of all things erin" boyfriend to the movie. did i mention this is a GREAT book? i highly recommend it. i do not however recommend going out to the movies to see it. its not that its a BAD movie...its more that a lot of liberties were taken with the basic story and the spirituality and self discovery sides of the book were lost in translation (such as the differences in different meditations and why one might prefer to use a certain meditation to achieve a certain result...and they totally and completely obliterated gilbert's attainment (if an applicable word here) of a state of turiya...and balinese culture and customs...and well most of the inspiring people and key events of the book)...i knew i was gambling when i bought my ticket that this might happen. however, the authoress, elizabeth gilbert, spent four months out of the year in italy, india, and indonesia each. this is her story. so i was expecting to see some really awesome great scenery at the very least since the movie spends about an hour on each of her destinations. basically it just ends up being a divorcee story where the woman travels the world and finds love at the end. oh and theres some really cool scenery but this movie is mostly close ups of julia roberts and flashbacks. im not saying dont go see this movie...im just saying maybe wait until it comes out in redboxes nationwide...pay a dollar...watch it a few times...THEN decide if you like it. personally, i was entranced and rather bored all at the same time...i just kept waiting and waiting and waiting for the movie to get better...but even not basing this movie on the book and just holding it for its individual worth....im not all that jazzed about it. so to make it up to my boyfriend im cooking an excellent dinner italiano tonight, getting a couple sixers, a bottle of wine, and baseball tickets for tomorrows twin game. so that, my sweets, is my daily vent. it was probably as boring as that dang movie but i really had to get that off my chest.

better luck next time, he could at least have the decency to call or txt at least once

youre always so sweet mikey

cant argue with that

off topic but reminds me of the early friends episode with the book about finding your inner goddess and not letting the lightening bearers steal your inner wind
i always was convinced i was a goddess...i guess my hips knew this new fashion trend would be coming so they did their best to insure id look great in my new goddess jeans

loved that cartoon!

you look like one of the spies from spy vs spy lurking in the shadows there

oooh id put the mustache pic as my default..but thats only because i like guys with a sense of humor. just a thought. imho youd probably get more hits with it though.

i like your profile...it left just enough unsaid to make someone want to email you with questions which could kickstart a good conversation. having dated many musicians i like that you added an interest in music as something you hoped your future gf would have...its important lol.welcome to mingle

IMHO: you stated that the dates were still just casual...and isnt casual dating supposed to be fun? i mean i know we're adults with a thousand different varied responsibilities any given day and then there are the lovely wrenches life throws our way...but if shes already bitching and complaining about men to you its possible shes coming from a few different areas here: shes maybe thinking shes "subtly" warning you from committing such behaviors (e.g. shes insecure about something and doesnt want you to hurt her feelings over it)...she may be looking more for sympathy than for a serious relationship...or maybe shes just not really all that fun to be around once the "fun" part of the evening is over. maybe shes stressed out and having difficulty handling life and needs to vent....at the end of the day though this is not your problem. we have girlfriends and sisters and mothers and coworkers and online forums for that kind of venting. most women who are ready for a serious down to earth relationship arent going to throw all their problems with their exes on the table for a bitchfest and arent going to look for you to hold out a box of tissues...they will however answer your questions(hopefully honestly) about their point of view on past relationships and why they ended. if this woman does really like you and does really want to be with you and you do want to continue to try dating her then she deserves the chance to know how the tirades are making you feel and how it takes away from time better spent together so you guys can find out if your compatible or not for a longer haul. btw youre doing the right thing in listening quietly to her...maybe shell get over it...and you arent enabling her to full on vent. but if its already "always something" i can tell you right now...that's never going to end. i have quite a few past gf's that have shown similar tendencies and mostly my gfs and the guys they're dating torture themselves just about as much as they have fun...which does not really ever progress anything past a casual dating scenario.



as far the abusive parent...yes that can change permanently how a person receives and gives emotions and how they handle stress. BUT in a healthier person they wont make you pay for every "crime committed against them" they would rather be happy to have found someone not willing to take advantage of their vulnerabilities and be able to share when theyre having a rough day...which hopefully doesnt crop up too often.


i guess you need to decide if youre willing to hang in there or not. maybe if she had a job or some hobbies or saw a therapist it would help alleviate some of her symptoms. i.e. a positive productive outlet.

either way i think you should address the issue as kindly as possible with her. she needs to know how youre feeling as a result of those conversations and you shouldnt have to hide your actual thoughts on the matter.

at the end of the day the question is what are you looking for in a date? and is she meeting that?

either way it sounds like shes been through her fair share and that can sometimes take some time to heal from. she may miss the intimacy of a relationship no matter how casual or serious but maybe what she really needs is a good friend first and fun date after.
