A few weeks ago, I went to bed with a deep urge to talk to my deceased Aunt Roxy about something going on in my life. As I was falling asleep, I was thinking about how much I needed to talk to her and I sort of called out in my mind and in my heart saying “Aunt Roxy, I really wish I could talk to you.”
That night I had a dream that the phone rang and it was Aunt Roxy! I said in a really relieved tone, “Oh, I am so glad you called!” As we were talking, I noticed that I was floating about 4 or 5 feet off the ground and I saw my husband below me asleep in bed. I floated over to the dresser and back to my side of the bed and around the room like I was idly pacing around while talking. And none of this was scary at all. It was all sort of matter-of-fact. “Oh, yes I am floating and there is Joe sleeping.” I didn’t say to myself that I was having an out-of-body experience, I just knew it and accepted it and went on.
At one point in our conversation, I remembered that she had actually died back in September and said to her “hey, wait a minute, how can I be talking to you? You are dead.”
And just then, the connection was gone.
The next day I had the thought that perhaps the limitations to our ability to communicate with those on the other side has more to do with us blocking it due to our disbelief, rather than because it is impossible. It was at the very moment I stopped believing I could talk to her that the communication stopped.
So many people have had experiences of communication with people on the other side, so why do we continue our cultural belief that it is impossible? When we block our belief in the possible, we block our ability to be open to the communication. It’s like our internal receiver is turned off so we can’t even hear them.
A past president of the Institute of Noetic Sciences, Willis Harman, once said, “Perhaps the only limits to the human mind are those we believe in.” Let’s open our minds wider to what is possible and we just might be rewarded with the ability to do things beyond our wildest dreams.
