  • Oh Chariot

    Oh Chariot

    I was never quite sure about Mediums. I had never had a reading, but watched them on TV and felt that a lot of them were phony. I never believed John Edward or James Van Praagh. For some reason when I was a child Silvia Browne seemed somewhat real, but not completely. Theresa Caputo sometimes gives me chills when I watch her and I somewhat believe in her as well. In February of this year, I read that anyone can be a Medium, it just takes a lot of hard work and maybe a little natural ability. I decided to find out if that was true. The only way I was going to know for sure that someone can be a medium and connect to the other side was to try it myself, so that’s what I did.

    For starters, I believed I had a slight natural ability. I had always had “visits” in dreams from people who had passed. They felt real and they sent me very important messages sometimes. I missed my loved ones and would dream about them a lot, but the dreams where they would “visit” me were different. They would be in my dream, not speaking a word, but I just knew what they were trying to tell me.

    As a child, I also had a spirit come stand over my bed often. I could feel them, standing over me, looking at me. It scared the hell out of me. I would cover my head until morning. Eventually it stopped. I think I blocked out any and all ability to connect with the dead because I was a chicken.

    I decided to stop being afraid. I read a couple of books and meditated a lot. I read one more that told me to just be still, meditate, and see what came to me for 30 days. I didn’t think I would get much out of it, but, slowly I did. One of the first messages I received was just the lyrics to a song about using God to gain strength and it just spoke to me. It felt like the type of message I would get in my dreams. The song was “Oh Chariot” by Gavin Degraw. A day or two later (I should have written it down) I received a message while I was driving that when I would receive messages I would receive them through lyrics. I wasn’t sure if I should believe it or not, but I spent the rest of my drive thinking about how that would all work out and what would I call myself if I wanted to do this for real? Musical Medium? Lyrical Medium? When I started this website I googled musical medium and apparently there is a woman who went through a similar experience as me (as far as getting messages through music) and she calls herself the Musical Medium. So I decided I would be the Lyrical Medium.

    The last book I read was The Awakened Way: Making the Shift to a Divinely Guided Life by Suzanne Giesemann. I highly suggest this book if you would like to find the truth and connect to your loved ones as well. Suzanne explains everything very well and includes simple practices in the book to help you to connect to the other side.

    As I continued to meditate and really focus on connecting to the other side, my abilities improved. I’ve watched Mediums on TV and they seem to connect so easily and they are given loads of information. This has not been my experience, yet. So far, what I receive has been simple, but the messages are sometimes all the person I am reading needs for validation that their loved one is still around. It sometimes comes to me as a puzzle, but the moment it all comes together I get chills down my spine and sometimes all over my body. I have learned that for me, so far, I usually only receive five or six key words that point to who the person is and/or show that they around the person I am reading and a lyric or two from a song that gives a special message. I feel like I receive a lyric because it can help them express what they have to say in a better way than only just a few words can. Maybe I will receive more when I get better or maybe that is all they can really tell us, that is what I am practicing to find out.

  • Rock On

    Rock On

    I’d like to share a more recent experience with you. This is from my journal. I refer to the person I am reading as my sitter. This is a common term that Mediums use. If you ever hear of a Medium looking for a sitter, they are looking for someone they can practice on, that they can “read.”

    In the evening I had my first online practice reading in a while. I went first and decided just to ask my sitter if there was anyone she wanted to connect with. She said, “Yes, definitely,” and I asked her to just give me names and nothing else. She first gave me the name Annie and it ended up being her Mom. I got “Texas” and then “Roadhouse” and she said, “Yep!” She told me later that Annie was her Mom and she was from Texas and loved to go to chain restaurants. I got “Billie Jean,” and I said, “I think that has to do with Michael Jackson.” She said, “Oh, definitely.” She later told me the song “Smooth Criminal” by Michael Jackson popped in her head as I read her and that song’s lyrics include “Annie, are you okay?” Which, just a side note, that lyric refers to resuscitating Anne, a CPR training dummy. That doesn’t have to do with anything I was just surprised by that info. I got a slight vision of birds and the words “Parrot” and “Parakeet” and asked her if she had birds or what did that have to do with anything and she told me her Dad carved birds and her Mom watched birds. I got just a simple sound I couldn’t place at the time and “Jimmy Dean.” After the reading I realized the sound and “Jimmy Dean” were from the song “Rock On” by David Essex. The lyrics, “Where do we go from here,” and “Which is the way that’s clear” keep repeating in the song.

    She asked me to try to connect with someone else after receiving information from her Mom, so I said I would, but I would only try for 5 minutes. She gave me another name, and it ended up being her cousin. Right away I heard,”RuPaul’s Drag Race,” and my sitter laughed and said that was a show in Vegas and she and her husband had just gone to Vegas. Her cousin then led me to the song “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” by Deep Blue Something. I had heard this song in the morning when I woke up and wondered why. She said she thought that was her cousin slightly teasing her about getting room service for breakfast at the hotel. She said her cousin would have thought it to be somewhat snobby to do so. I thought it was interesting that even though contacting her cousin was spur of the moment, her cousin already knew in the morning that it would happen.

    I tried meditate in the morning, but I couldn’t focus. I felt like I needed to tell my sitter from last night what her song was. I ended up emailing her to tell her about the song that her mother had given her, “Rock On” by David Essex. When she emailed back, she said that the song made perfect sense to her. She said it touched her heart from the beginning because of the drumming sounds. She said it makes a very Native American sound in the beginning and that she has a drum that she really wants to incorporate into her Reiki sessions. She said she wants her Reiki sessions to have some elements of Shamanism.

    She said the line that said, “Where do we go from here, and which is the way that’s clear” made total sense because she and her husband are looking for a new home. They have tried for three so far and have lost out on all three. She said she knows the universe had their backs and it will deliver their perfect home and help a buyer for their current home just land on their feet when they are ready, but at times they wonder, “Where do we go from here?” 

    She said the song ended up being so meaningful it made her tear up and thanked me. She said I am super gifted, but in a unique way from other Mediums. That meant a lot to me and made me feel so good.
