Talking to the Dead-Gift or Curse?
I’m one of those people who easily sees and talks to the dead––those who have passed over. In the movie George tells another how he became psychic: As a child he had become very ill and needed surgery on the back of his head. Because of it something happened in his brain resulting in him “knowing and seeing” things about people he had no prior access to and this information was told to him by dead people.
I appreciated how the scriptwriter presented a correlation between head/brain surgery and changes in one’s psychic abilities. I also had a similar experience where a head injury had awoken my psychic abilities.
When I was nineteen I was in a very serious car accident and received grave injuries to my face and head and for a moment in the ambulance I “died”. That brief moment profoundly changed the course of my life forever, although it took me years to, not only understand what happened, but talk about it openly. Like one character in Hereafter I went to the“otherside”.
The physical part in time healed but the true miracle was what happened afterward.
Within a couple of months I began to have strong premonitions, about people’s past (recognition) visions of future events (precognition) and dead people spoke to me. It was not pleasant. Heck it scared the bejeevus out of me! Not that I was new to accepting psychic occurrences. My mother had a curiosity in it, even having a few prophetic a few dreams and for fun read tealeaves, but my experiences surpassed this greatly.
One of my strong abilities is mediumship and I rather enjoy it. I’ve mostly given up giving spirit communication (aka séances) because of the physically living beings as George experienced.
Of course the dead can be an annoyance as Oda Mae Brown (Whoopi Goldberg) in the movie “Ghosts” learned where she was deluged by spirits all coming through (talking) at one time––it can happen like that when they find a person who can see and hear them.
Do they haunt you like Oda Mae was by the dead character Sam, Patrick Swayze? You bethca! This happened to me once. The spirit didn’t lighten up until the police contacted me for all her information (her killer was successfully prosecuted.)
There are many rewards having these abilities’ and talents. I’ve met people from all over the world and been invited to travel to share my abilities. People have told me the information I shared changed their lives. Then again there’s a downside. In the movie George says that some people say he has a gift, but he thought of it more as a curse. I can relate. The curse is seeing and knowing too much as George says.
Psychics do become tired. Its takes a lot of energy, much focus and a certain detachment as information surges through. I’ve worked with law enforcement and even the believers have a particular way that can make one feel a bit blocked. There’s the need and expectations of clients to fulfill (or not) and neediness of the people seeking help and connections to dead loved ones. Let’s not forget the testing doubters, the ridiculing critics and the condemning haters (oh yes!) of psychics.
After having used my abilities for 40 years I believe that psychic energy must retire and the person must live for her or himself. But then, like George, there’s always that one more person who truly needs that information.
In my novel, my main character has "unusual" abilities that prove to be more of a curse than a blessings.

HI HO HI HO OFF TO WINCHESTER MYSTERY HOUSE I GO!
I am fortunate enough to be invited to give a presentation at the Winchester Mystery House in San Jose, California.
This beautifully structured house is one of Northern California’s premiere attractions, a national and state historic landmark and one of America’s most extraordinary homes.
The house was once the resident of Sarah Winter, the widow of Willam Winchester, the inventor of the Winchester Reading Arms. The lore is when the widow Sarah Winchester during a psychic reading she was told to build a house to appease the many suffering souls of those who became victims of her husband's gun.
Hence the rumors of hauntings of Sarah that drove her mad causing her to have doors that didn't open, stairs that went no where and many other "unfinished" rooms were constructed. In fact construction went on daily for years.
These strange additions in the house supposedly were for Mrs. W to flee the hauntings of these spirits.
It's also rumored Mrs. Winchester held seance in the home to connect to the spirits. That could have been but I doubt the spirit communications were to the victim spirits.
June Ahern & Annalisa/Winchester House 2022
In 2022 I was invited along with Annalisa, another psychic medium, to investigate spirit activity, which I have done often in other locations (see The Haunted Bay, Amazon Prime and YouTube). I found the house to yes, have spirit activity, and no, not malignant spirits roaming around at the Winchester House.
The spirits I encountered are of a different era - seen in a space and time not of the 3 dimensional space of the physical human experience. Let me give you an example:
You're looking through a window at a party going on right outside your house. People are laughing, smoking barbecues are grilling your favorite meal, you can just about smell it!, music is playing and there you are inside the house. You can experience what you see, hear, smell, even a reaction of tasting and an emotional feeling, but you're not OUT in the happenings.
That's a fourth dimensional sensation. A space that exists in your mind beyond the three dimension.
As a psychic medium I can experience that space and time but I don't physically live it - well, in most cases. That's another topic.
Mystery vs Mystical
The Winchester House - really a mansion with incredibly awesome furniture, - surrounded by gorgeous gardens and more buildings - is not a mystery to me nor would it be to those who have studied metaphysics, and beyond.
A mystery: Who dun it? Why was it done? What is it all about? These questions can lead to a mystical experience if one moves beyond the lore and rumors of the house.
Did you know that that Sarah Pardee Winchester was a FreeMason, Rosicrucian and most likely followed the 19th awakening teachings in the Spiritualism Movement? Within these facts answers the unknown of why Sarah Winchester created "secrets" within the structure.
One way of another when you visit enjoy it all, the sensation, the history and the mystical experience - if you're ready.
