When I was young, probably five years old or so, I was given a chocolate brown dress. You might wonder the significance of this brown dress because what little girl wears brown? What a boring color for a little girl! Well, the adornment on the dress was stripes of aqua colored piping which ran across the bodice. In my little mind, I thought that the aqua piping was the most beautiful color I had ever seen. To this day (over 50 years later) I still think back fondly about that dress and realized it was the beginning of an understanding how color can affect our lives, and how we can instinctively resonate with the colors around us.
Before I became known as the “aqua lady”, I wallpapered one of the master bedroom walls in my home with stripes of light brown, Aqua and white. The color combination has always reminded me of the ocean, which brings me peace. The adjoining bathroom is also brown, aqua and white. The main bathroom in the home is a brown, aqua and white beach combination with shells and a beach scene. On the shelf in that bathroom are chocolate brown and aqua towels, the exact colors of the dress I wore many years before. Yes, I’m obsessive! Lol
When I first began doing readings professionally in my home I painted lavender roses as a border at the top of the walls in my reading room. Then, about four years ago, I was in the Tampa area and visited a metaphysical store. On one of their walls was a peacock tree. A tree was painted, but the leaves were made out of peacock feathers. Having had professional experience as a decorative artist, I came home and immediately changed the decor of my reading room. Because of my aqua obsession and my love of peacocks (because of the aqua/teal) I had a new design for my reading room. I duplicated the peacock tree that I saw in Tampa but embellished it with more feathers. Since then, clients, students, and family have lovingly gifted me peacock and aqua decorations for the room. I have to say, that the aqua is now spilling out into other areas of my home, which is fine with me. I don’t know how my husband thinks about it, but I’m in my happy place.
I’m happy to be the “Aqua lady”. People may not recognize my face when I’m out in public, but they have approached me inquiring if I’m the psychic medium they see online, because I’m often wearing Aqua. Who knew that 50+ years ago I would be recognized because of my Aqua obsession? I’m good with that.

Just this past weekend I was honored to participate in a lovely expo where I was one of the guest speakers. My topic being “Tracking” I explained what our loved ones experience between the time of their passing and when they actually arrive in heaven. The topic was well received and there were many interesting questions from the audience, but it’s the connection with those they love on the other side that they’re looking for. Hey, I get it… I’m the same way! Give me the goods already! 🙂
Throughout history, people have had a fascination with the afterlife. Maybe it’s in part due to the fact they, themselves, have had paranormal or spiritual events take place. Possibly they’re also intuitive but haven’t investigated or stretched their intuitive muscles. Whatever it is that pushes them forward in an earnest search for wisdom or another way to reach through the veil (the living-to-spirit divide), I see the constant need to once again connect with those we love.
We continue to live in a time where it’s not “normal” or even encouraged to dabble with the deceased or conjure spirit from the grave, however, it’s slowly being accepted as a possibility that some people (if not all people) are gifted with the ability to do so. With more and more people taking an active role in their own spirituality, beliefs, and religion, it’s highly probable that the average person wants to build their own unique relationship with that of the spirit world and the Divine.
Personally, I have always had the desire to build a unique relationship with God. I’ve never been comfortable with someone telling me what I must believe as I can feel the truth. I can speak, feel and hear God in my soul… and so can you!
To get back to my story (Wow, did I get off track there!), there were approximately 150 people in attendance at the lecture I was giving, each and every one of them hoping for a sliver of hope, of having their loved one reach through the veil, to receive comfort in the surety their loved one lives on. For in this yearning is the comfort in knowing we, too, will be able to continue on after our earthly journey. To continue sharing in the lives of our children and grandchildren, watching their triumphs, loves, and blessings, while leaving them spiritual signs of evidence along the way.
Whether it’s bipolar, depression, dementia or any other horrible mental disease, I don’t believe (at least in my findings) that many families can miss the boat.
Do you remember that new baby doll smell? I smelled it this morning when I was in the shower (A really good time for spirit communication by the way). I tuned in and received information from an older woman with severe dementia. She was holding a baby doll in her arms as if this is something she might have done when she was still alive. I received a message from her that after a brief horror of lucidity comes the blessed void of dementia once again.
Many years prior to her passing we went through this scenario with my own mother and remember the look of absolute horror because with the lucidity comes the momentary realization of what has happened to their mind and bodies. Peace, then, returns with the mental void. On a spiritual level, this makes sense because in that void we are truly our spiritual being, at one with the absolute heart and mind of God. In this space, we find peace, love, and comfort once again. In this space, we are our subconscious mind – the mind that is spirit-based and comforted by the emptiness. We are at peace with the world of the divine, and at peace with the void. Know that while it may seem our loved ones aren’t “in there” they’re truly in a mental, emotional and spiritual place where they’re at one with the divine being watched over and taking care of by their angels, ancestors, spirit guides and God.

This morning at 8:32 AM the moon can be seen to be larger and brighter. This phenomenon is called Super Moon, and apparently hasn’t been this bright or seem so large in almost 70 years.
I’m the first one who will admit to falling short in my astrological studies (lots of memorization). However, I am well aware of how lunar cycles can affect our emotions, our physical bodies, and our spiritual body. We’ve all run across the full moon affect where it seems things are falling apart around us. Apparently, the Super Moon magnifies [Read more…]
