So often when people come to work with me they begin their stories about the other side with the disclaimer, “I know this sounds crazy but…” We have been so indoctrinated into disbelieving and mistrusting our encounters with the dead that we are often hesitant to share them with others for fear we’ll seem mentally imbalanced.
We are all having these encounters. Everyone is. But there are so few places and situations where we can share these stories and talk about them without mockery.
That’s why I host Monthly Magic—a Zoom space on the third Sunday of every month where folks can come together to share their miracles with the dead, their dreams about the dead, and those moments where the dead became real for them and really showed up for them. It’s also a place for people to bring their questions about how to work with the dead, trust them, and make magic, real magic, happen in their lives.
Monthly Magic is open to all my PAID subscribers and the Zoom invite is below the paywall. Monthly Magic is not recorded so our conversations are confidential and they are usually lively, heartening, moving, and so much FUN. I hope you’ll join us! (In addition to receiving an invite to Monthly Magic you will also be able to access excerpts from my upcoming books, only available here!)
So bring your crazy story and begin to realize that what’s really crazy is the narcisstic illusion that our species is the only one that matters, that one life is all the life we’ve got, and that we’ve got to be in control of everything to make anything happen. (I mean we ARE making the Sixth Extinction happen….but….I mean….)
Come join the Conversation with the Other Side!
