4:00 a.m., June 11, 2016

I woke quietly in the night and noted how dark it was outside and the glowing numerals of 4:00 on my clock across the room. Closing my eyes again, I noticed how comfortable my bed and pillow felt to me – and I relaxed back into a soft sleep. A gentle image came to me – I was curled up and cradled in the lap of one of my spirit guides, Rachael who had helped me through several past traumatic life events after I became aware of her in 1982, soon after my divorce. The vision was deeply comforting and it felt like Rachael’s lap was soft and protective but also very much like the roots of a great tree – and that Rachael was even transformed into that tree. It felt like an ancient forest. Just beyond I saw Frank’s face, smiling. Around us it was dark and quiet and comforting. Then, through my closed eyes, it began to get lighter – and the light grew, surrounding me, the forest and the great tree. I briefly wondered if the sun was coming up in Costa Rica, but brushed that aside with my rational mind knowing it was before 5 a.m. Then the dream/vision faded and I was once again so comfortable on my bed with my soft pillow and knowing that I didn’t want the dream to end. It wasn’t over. The dream/vision reappeared and I would be back in the forest cradled in Rachael’s lap, Frank smiling beyond and white light increasing all around us. Each time I felt like I was floating – effortless, light all around and all I could think or feel was that this was perfect and I was exactly where I was to be. For the next hour or so I repeatedly moved into and out of the dream/vision, always returning to the comfort of my bed and pillow and keeping my eyes closed. Finally at 5:15 I opened my eyes and saw the subtle suggestion of daybreak through my windows.

I knew immediately that something significant had changed. Though everything around me – my house, my dogs, my view out across the valley seemed to be the same, all seemed different too. Lighter is how I can describe it. I felt lighter. Not happier. Just lighter. I wondered about the possibility of a parallel universe. Frank had often wondered about that concept.

I took some time to meditate and again send light and love to those involved in the negativity and lies around Frank’s farm and also taking time to bathe the farm in healing light and wishing for it to achieve its highest purpose. Frank had reminded me that the farm had a soul – and I appealed to its soul to embrace all who were and are connected to it.

The day progressed and seemed almost to be sprinkled in a path of magic. I wondered what else may be happening out of my sight and current knowing. It was hard to miss the little things that occurred that Thursday morning.

At the feria, (the open air market) – several people came up to me and remarked about how good I looked. It seemed that more than usual reached out to embrace me. Some minor difficulties were almost magically resolved – while driving on the main highway I was alerted by two passing motorists to my almost flat rear tire. I pulled into a service station and the attendant fixed it immediately and would not take any payment. I continued on down the highway to a hardware store to find a replacement socket for a broken, in-cabinet light fixture. Instead, the smiling salesman suggested a new, better one that was LED and used less electricity. I purchased the socket and the bulb for under $3.

The day continued with additional small miracles that even included a call from someone I hadn’t heard from for nearly 2 years just wishing me well.

I couldn’t help but feel the shift in energy. And the lightness.

The healing.
