Do People Know That They Are Dead? Not Always.

I am jumping right in, no, not always. I say this because I’ve had many encounters with the spirit world to prove this point. 

Let me start by saying that every Medium is different, and there will be many opinions. I can best describe this topic by comparing it to doctors. Some doctors have specialties, so a cardiologist doesn’t specialize in eye care; they specialize in everything related to the heart. Same with Mediums. Some Mediums have the ability to see spirit, and some don’t. Some have profound connections with spirit, some don’t, and that’s ok! Variety is key here; not all have the same abilities. 

Laura

I met Laura in spirit while doing a mediumship reading for someone via Zoom. As the reading started, I felt a spirit presence with me, so I focused on that presence. I know from experience that most of the time, if I look straight at spirits, they disappear, but I can see clearly and in detail with my peripheral vision. Again, every Medium is different. 

The name Laura came to mind and it was validated by the sitter. I took a minute to get to know Laura and sensed she was upset. Before speaking to Laura, I wanted more information about her. I saw that Laura was wearing Army boots, and that, too, was confirmed by the sitter; she was in the military. Also, her pale skin and beautiful blonde hair were how I saw her, also validated by the sitter. Ok, we have Laura here, and like I said, she is upset about something. 

“Why are you upset, Laura?"

“I'm upset because my family is not talking to me,” she said. They ignore me whenever I try to talk to them, and I don't know why."

The conversation continued, and I said with a sympathetic smile, “Laura, I’m going to be blunt. You know that since you’re talking to me, and I’m a Medium, there’s a good chance that you are not alive."

I felt a substantial pause in time. My third eye shot down to her feet, where she was wearing Army boots, and I saw her “kick a bucket.” 

“You mean I’m dead? I kicked the bucket?"

I felt like giving her a big hug, but of course, that was not possible. Instead, I opened my heart chakra and sent her love the best way I could.

“Yes, Laura, you are not alive, and this is why your family is not speaking to you. They can’t hear you. You can see them, but they can’t see you. I'm sorry."

The following incident also happens when people cross over; I’ll discuss that in other posts. As soon as she heard me say that, I saw Laura raise her arms over her head, hands together, like the steeple of a Church. Then there was a flash of a very bright, but not blinding, light, and her space was filled with glitter. I felt the link to the spirit world break, and she was gone, ascended. 

How do I know this to be true? Because of patterns. I’ve had several readings where some didn’t know they were dead, and when they found out, I saw the same bright, glittery light swoop them away.

This is part of my ability to see and connect with the spirit world, and it brings me to tears every time I witness it, not because it’s sad but because it’s so high-vibrational and beautiful.
