Conscious Living

Crossing Over, From This World into the Spirit World

Crossing through the veil from this world to the next is one of the most misunderstood, controversial, and asked about phenomena that we, as humans, experience.

Those who have experienced Near-Death Experiences, what we commonly refer to as NDE’s, have stories, often very similar, where they say they have crossed through the veil then been called back to their bodies here on Earth.

Lisa Williams, world renowned Psychic Medium and Author, says, in her book, The Survival of the Soul, “Remarkably, and with few exceptions, people report experiences that closely match descriptions given by others who have also had NDE’s.”

Every Soul will make this transition at some time from this life into the Afterlife. Your Soul is powerful, and it knows what to do. It is also timeless and endless. It cannot be destroyed or lost. Your Soul is pure energy, and it oversees everything about both your living and your dying. As soon as your Soul leaves your body, it knows what to do.

Before you come to Earth, there is a plan for you at a Soul level, and this plan includes exit points.

Your Soul is attached to your physical body through a silver cord that provides an energetic connection. This is how it has been most experienced and described by those who have had out of body experiences, near death experiences, and astral travel experiences.

When you leave your body to cross over, the cord snaps, and you are released from your body. At this point, you can choose to move toward the veil in the direction of the White Light. Again, many describe this same experience when they have had a near-death experience and come back. Because it is a choice, some choose not to take this direction and end up in a place that is neither Earth nor the Afterlife, but a vortex of sorts. Usually, this is because they feel they have unfinished business with their time on Earth. These Souls become what we think of as “Ghosts.”

Those who move into the White Light are supported all the way by their Spirit Guides.

The Spirit World exists in another dimension and time. Those in the Spirit World can come very close to us when we connect with them, and, at the same time, they are actually in a different dimension of higher-vibrational frequency.

Your journey into the Spirit World begins with you traveling through a tunnel. It is not a dark tunnel; it is a tunnel of Light that would be blinding to your human eyes. You continue through the tunnel, pulled as if by a magnet closer and closer to the White Light.

You will be aware of loved ones around you and will be able to see them and touch them once you are out the other side of the tunnel.

One purpose of the White Light is to provide healing and clear the emotions of your passing. It is the first stage of healing preparing you for what is to come. More healing happens once you reach the Afterlife.

You don’t remember what it was like before you came to Earth or other times you have made this transition out of your body and into the Afterlife, but your Soul knows, and it will guide you safely. People experience fear before they die sometimes, but that fear disappears at the time of your crossing and is replaced with awareness.

Lisa Williams says, “It’s just like riding a bike, you never forget.” Remember, also, that you are returning, when you cross over, to a place you came from. Because of this, it will feel familiar to you.

Ancestral Clearing and Healing

Do you understand how deeply your Ancestors care about your life and are invested in your time on Earth?

Your Ancestors are just some of the non-physical support available to you, and it is important to understand how you can best work with them and allow them to support you.

I first started working with my Ancestors and my Ancestral Lineage when I was a Therapist. My specialty was Generational Dysfunction. I continued with this interest and passion when I moved out of therapy and into working as a Psychic, Medium, and Healer.

Your Ancestors’ ability to support you and help you through this life is profound. They can guide you and teach you in very practical and powerful ways. Imagine what strengths, gifts, talents, and traits flow through your Ancestral Lineage and through your bloodline. When you tap into this and allow yourself to receive these, you are able to be more of who you are.

Your Ancestral Line is a part of your Personal Power that runs through you and gives you the capabilities you need to be here and do the work you are here to do, the work you are made to do. The land your Ancestors stood on holds power for you, as well.

Become aware of this support and the calling within you to carry your lineage forward. When you agree to do this, you carry the Power of your entire line and can heal backward and forward 7 generations. Think of that! You can positively and profoundly affect and impact 14 generations in your bloodline.

You gain so much Power when you learn how to draw energy from your Ancestral Lineage. Many people have shut off all access to this, because of the clearing and healing that has not been done and the issues that remain unresolved and create continued pain and wounding.

When you learn how to work with your Ancestors through first Clearing and Healing and then through Reclamation and Assimilation, your world absolutely transforms.

Every generation is called to carry forward the Evolutionary trajectory of their Ancestral Heritage. It becomes their duty to make the best use of their Ancestral Blessings as they look to the future while healing what no longer serves them from the past. This healing addresses generational dysfunction, trauma, wounds, behaviors, limiting beliefs, resistance, toxic energetic patterns, and ways of being, doing, and having.

Understand that, as a Soul, you selected a specific family lineage. This lineage was chosen to provide tremendous opportunity for Spiritual Growth and Enlightenment. When you are able to break free from the limiting patterns of the past, it will allow your Ancestors to break free from their bonds, also.

You are able to connect with your Ancestors, heal what needs to be healed, reveal what needs to be revealed, and honor them with your own personal Spiritual practices. You can allow the Ancestral abilities and knowledge to flow through you when you clear the blocks you have put in place as a way to protect yourself.

This is a powerful step for you in moving forward, making peace with your past and paving a way for your better life and a better future for you and all those who come after you.

BAP 2021 Fabulous Feedback Award Winner

Folks, she has done it again! Deborah Livingston has won Shay Parker’s Best American Psychics’ 2021 Fabulous Feedback Award. Deborah consistently receives high praise and feedback from our clients. She is a fabulous evidential medium and has proven the existence of life after death to anyone that seeks and books a reading. Deborah has the honor of receiving several awards from our company, as her clients repeatedly let us know how she has affected them and their lives in a positive way. And, this year, she is deserving again.

This recent feedback came in and we pulled an excerpt from it to exhibit some of what we hear about Deborah:

“5 stars!!!The only thing better than a reading with Deb Livingston? A SECOND reading with Deb Livingston!First of all, her accuracy is spot on! And from what I understand of the way in which she works, the accuracy is due both to her gift in receiving the messages and her uncanny skill and ability to interpret the message as it applies to the individual. Both times I sat with her, I asked for an hour of her time, split between ‘medium reading’ and ‘life reading’. I love this combo! What makes it so special is that, at least for me, Deb was able to find links between my current life path and messages received from my loved ones in the spirit world.”

Deborah has spent years training and honing her natural gift with the top educators and professionals which accounts for her “uncanny skill and ability to interpret the message as it applies to the individual.” This is what continued education and training is all about and why Deborah is such a highly regarded professional in her field.

Deborah offers psychic and mediumship readings as well as life readings, spiritual assessments, and spiritual mentoring. In addition, she is a published author. She has made several radio and TV appearances. You can book a reading with Deborah and she can read for you at distance via phone.

We are pleased to, once again, offer this award to Deborah! Links for Deborah: https://bestamericanpsychics.com/listing/deborah-livingston

Start the New Year Knowing Your Gifts On Hand

Gift Markings show up where your particular talents are meant to have a spotlight in your life.  These gifts come with a penalty marker if you dont use them.  Its like added pressure to keep you from hiding out as a chick in the shell.  You do have to knock through the limitations around you so that your light can shine.  When you know whats required, the effort isnt a struggle though.  It feels more like a hike that leaves you with a great view feeling pleasantly tired.  Ready to get to that peak of your talent this year?

bestamericanpsychics

Stars:  There are both five pointed and six pointed stars that show up in your hand in all kinds of places.  Regardless of where they show up, the five pointed stars are of Venus and they tend to draw attention to the areas of the hand they land on without you lifting a finger.  What is required is receptivity and gratitude to fuel the firesof the attractor factor.  The better you are at receiving and enjoying the light, the more of it you attract.  Use the hand sample to see which mythological figures you can search to learn what themes or psychological arenas are highlighted by your star.  

bestamericanpsychics

Six pointed stars are of Mars and they require effort.  When opportunity shines a light on you, its time to take the torch and run your lap of the Olympic run.  You dont want to be the runner that drops the torch on the way to the Olympic stadium, do you?  So based on what light comes your way, take it in and make it your own so you can run your true race and make your contribution stand out in a way that pleases you while it stretches you to do your best.  

Healers Lines or Intuitive Lines are vertical lines side by side like pickets in a fence that arent connected horizontally.  They run between the heart line and the top of the hand under the little finger.  Sitting between the heart and Mercurys finger they show that these people can literally feel what another feels and communicate it with some effect.  Healers can often struggle with feeling badly and not knowing why when they dont have healthy ways to disconnect from anothers emotional flow.  It lands like it is in your body and causes confusion.  But it makes a very effective intuitive who can help another sort out the difficult swim of feelings.  

bestamericanpsychics

The Apollo Line gets a lot of attention because it means you are meant to stand out in some arena in your life.  Your gifts are meant to take center stage.  It doesnt automatically mean you will be on a real stage but it does mean you are a gifted storyteller.  How you do it depends on you and there are as many ways to be that communicator in the spotlight as there are people.  I know one whos an attorney who advocates for those who dont have a voice.  

bestamericanpsychics

If you have one of these then you have a little more insight into how to use it this coming year.  But dont despair if you dont.  Your gifts may not be underlined in this post, yet gifted you are.  Check out TruthinHand.com to see if you resonate with a different kind of talent, shown on your hands.  Wishing you a safe and Happy New Year

Conflict Growth in December

Week 4 of the Fork in the Road December Series

Okay, if you’ve been following along, you now know what your conflict style is and what stretch is ‘on hand’ this month. If you need to catch up then you can do that HERE. () Now that you know a bit more about what’s required, let’s have some fun with how you do it. This December we have the meet up of Jupiter and Saturn in Aquarius which heralds a new 200 year cycle of expansion that highlights the element of Air, or the mind.

It helps to slow down this month and NOT react right away to what stirs us up. It’s too easy to be triggered into old habits instead of drawing from the growth you’ve achieved over your lifetime.  A slow approach allows room for new information to come into view and inform you about options your old reactions may not factor in when you jump to conclusions or actions.  

Pause, reflect, remember what your strengths are.  If your Head Line ends under an inside finger, you require time to find your backbone to pushback on what doesn’t fit who you are now. That’s not comfortable, since you underestimate yourself more often than not.  Add to the picture that you also overestimate the person opposite you, and you have a recipe for conflict avoidance.  

One step at a time, you have a better chance to see your gifts and strengths.  Instead of snapping closed like a sea anemone, you can reach for your talents and trust that your point of view is worthwhile and needed!  Especially since you understand what it feels like to be overwhelmed, you show others how to be generous when you practice speaking up for yourself while considering them, too.

bestamericanpsychics

If your Head Line makes it to an outside finger under that little finger, then it can be easier for you to be dismissive of the other’s inability to articulate their argument or stand up for themselves.  When you slow down, you can actually help bring about a better conversation by giving them the space to think, feel and come back to you on a slower pace than you operate normally.  

The ability to slow down can also give you added insight that may open their eyes to where they can see the whole picture more clearly when you aren’t doing it from a place of being right and making them wrong.  Instead of dominating a moment or an exchange, you can help light the way for a longer lasting win that includes others in that victory. 

As I mentioned the first week of December, January dials up the pressure to change. So do take what helps and apply it to a slower, kinder pace right now. You’ll be very glad to reap the rewards of that for years to come.  With a 200 year cycle of Jupiter and Saturn meeting up in Air signs, we have to learn how to level the playing field better so that we all benefit.  

If you want to find out what that looks like for you this coming year, you can check out TruthinHand.com and sign up for the newsletter.  You get a special introductory reading at almost half off.  Or, you can request a Year Ahead Reading and find out just what preparations serve you best.  Thank you for tuning in and wishing you all the best, always.

Fork in the Road December – Week 3

We are in Week Three in a month of reward or conflict, you decide which it will be. This blog post shares how you navigate conflict well using the palm of your hand. This week we look at how to win with a Head Line that more easily takes the ‘upper hand’.

When your Head Line reaches the outside edge of your hand, anywhere under the little finger, you more naturally speak or stand up for yourself with facts and intuition. It can feel frustrating when others won’t join you in a discussion or debate. bestamericanpsychics

In fact you can be the big picture person that sometimes despairs when others can’t see it too. Patience is required and you have to watch for that inner demon of superiority. Be mindful you don’t dismiss others who aren’t wired to feel safe or comfortable with disagreement. Keep in mind conflict can feel overwhelming, not because they are weak but because they’ve been wired to fear it. How you handle it can help another step into that arena and discover their courage, or you can send them fleeing you and seeing you as the bully even when you aren’t. bestamericanpsychics

Let’s start first with the Air Head Line that stays higher up in the hand. This line ends under the pinky region on the outside of your hand. Since you have the strongest mental ability, you can win with words and ideas all the time. Your challenge is to learn to listen and care what others think. It’s not just a win/lose opportunity. It’s a chance to be curious and connect with others, even when you see things differently. You can do the most growth this month when you measure success differently. Let your mind find bridges between people instead of widening the gap with right/wrong thinking.

Now it’s time for our great visionary explorers, the Fire Head Line. Your Head Line travels to the bottom outside quarter of your hand. This month you have to check what your vision serves up and question your interpretations on what you see. It’s too easy to jump to conclusions, and while you may discover some completely unexplored region, let’s do it safely. You can be the most impatient with those who don’t get it and respond with some heat. You are Fire, after all.

Keep in mind that you are meant to help unleash all the potential fire power between people when you use warmth to bring them closer, instead of blow torch those who don’t ‘get it’. If anyone can see how to use all the different points of view and actions to improve the situation, you are the most visionary of solution finders when you temper your approach with a dollop of patience and faith.

To dig deeper on your type, you can watch Metaphysical Minds’ discussion of Head Lines here with Shay Parker and Lisa Greenfield outlining what you can do best.  https://www.facebook.com/TruthinHand/videos/910192732725517

Next week we put it all together, just in time for the holiday conversations. I’m with the Dalai Lama who said ‘anyone who thinks they’re enlightened, spend a week with your family’. While me might not be there in person it could be a great time to break old patterns!

Fork in the Road December – Week 2

December serves up a month of reward or conflict, you get to decide which it will be. One key to which way you goes is there in the palm of your hand, literally. So let’s explore more on how to use your ‘martial’ talents to put you in the winner circle instead of on the floor in a knockout.

How you were taught to think, speak and act on your behalf shows up in the Head Line (which travels through the Mars region on your hand). The left hand is your internal or personal process, the right hand reveals what the world sees.

bestamericanpsychicsThe further a line travels, the more it picks up steam. Shorter and/or curved lines that end under the Apollo finger absorbed challenges in speaking up or acting on their behalf in a conflict.

Now comes the important bit. You have to stretch this month. Growth is not optional, resistance is painful – so let’s give you a hand there.

If you usually give in to others, you will be required to stand up for yourself better. This doesn’t mean fight, rather it means stretch a bit.

Circumstances pop up to help provoke you to flex a new muscle. The Universe isn’t mean, it’s offering practice to consider both yourself and others in disagreement.

Disagreement is important, even necessary in times of great chaos or change. It helps us consider points of view from a bigger range of possibilities than agreement ever would. We have to let go of simple solutions that pit us against each other. All hands on deck are needed now, pun intended.

So time to find out more about your particular style…

If your Head Line ends under the ring finger (aka the Apollo finger) time to open up to the world a bit more. Be curious about where you missed seeing your power and impact on others. Good news, you don’t have to shout, even soft voice carries power when you speak your centered Truth.

The shorter, straighter Head Line is an Earth Head Line. You prefer actions to words and prefer familiar to unfamiliar. You also jump to conclusions that underestimate your own strength. You tend to leave the conversation and head back to safe familiar space

bestamericanpsychics

or come out swinging fast. Familiar is survivable, so when that’s threatened you can react quickly. You actually represent the bedrock on which life stands, but may miss seeing your strength which is when you pull back OR swing first to ‘stay safe’. Time to see more of the real you.

When your Headline is longer and curves down but stays under that ring Apollo finger, you aren’t quick to act. Instead you can imagine a million different things that can go wrong. You drown in worst case scenarios before you open your mouth. Instead of imagining the worst time to trust your enormously mind to help have that deeper conversation.

Risk is hard on you and conflict is so uncomfortable when your head line ends on the inside of your hand. Yet you have to practice the discomfort of speaking your truth instead of resentment for those who don’t automatically know it or see it. Remember, water wears down a rock, so use your artfully expressed point of view that is hardest to resist, when you persist!

Next week we dive into the outside lines and how to win the change game and land on the high road for you. If you want more on this subject check out Metaphysical Minds Broadcast here where Shay and Lisa dive deeper.  https://www.facebook.com/TruthinHand/videos/910192732725517

Until next week, where we tackle the outside head lines.

Fork In The Road December

December serves up a month of reward or conflict; you decide which it will be. This fork in the road is going to unfold over the next 200 years astrologically, but you live in the kick-off period, lucky YOU. Seriously, you get to help set the tone and what you do now matters more than possibly any other time in your life.

Which is why when I tell you that you win the day when you DON’T act, at least not right away, it may confuse you. Let me clear that up, so you get to the reward portion of the month. Mars sits in Aries for almost six months this year. Aries is the beginning of the Zodiac and it’s a chance to start fresh on how we do things.

WHAT you do matters less than how you do it. Don’t get me wrong, what you do does matter. It’s just that HOW you do it matters more. When we move quickly, we pull from muscle memory and brain stem automatic response. So, if you react too fast on things that aren’t urgent, you box yourself into old patterns.

Except, in times of change, those old patterns don’t fit any better than shoes you wore in first grade. So, it’s time for a new pair of shoes, metaphorically speaking. When you slow down, pause, and take a good look around, you are free to take in more information than a rapid response would give you.

Your ‘conditioned response’ is actually stamped on your hand. You see, the lines in your hand include a ‘Mars’ region. It reveals your risk tolerance, your courage, your typical action style. All that in your Head line that runs right through that section on your hand.

bestamericanpsychicsBut for the sake of efficient information, you will receive news you can use on what your hand has to offer! Each week this month we explore a bit more about the line, the region, and how to use yours wisely.

Because for anyone stuck in a Groundhog Day response this year, the pressure to change is building. The first weeks of January serve a wallop for those who dig in and refuse to grow. Much like a cork on heated champagne, it’s going to fly unless you find the way to let a new path emerge. So let’s get you on the better path, right?

Outside conflict points you in the right direction on what’s inside your mind to help you turn that corner. Next week we explore a bit more on how to use your martial talents to put you in the winner circle instead of on the floor in a knockout. Start with a peek at your hand.

You can get a free sample online reading at TruthinHand.com. Next week we will start the breakdown on your line and how to harness the power on hand for your best life when you tune in here. In the meantime, pause before you act…You’ll be very glad you did!
