Secrets

I normally don't talk to someone after they receive a discernment from me. Let me clarify that, a lot of people will tell me about things that came through during a discernment, as well as cherished memories of their loved one. But usually, they don't bother to keep in touch with me. 

Writing my book, I asked people who have received a discernment from me for their stories, and I was honestly surprised as to how few people actually responded. Well, I got an idea as to why last night. A woman who received a discernment from me three weeks ago told me how "vulnerable" she felt during the session. 

When I'm bringing someone through, I'm privy to a number of "secrets." It's usually how someone who has crossed over let's their loved one know it's really them. Believe me, I think I've heard them all. I don't remember the last time I was shocked. 

Luckily for me, I have a very short memory when it comes to these "secrets." I think it's because I'm accessing a part of my brain during a discernment that becomes "dormant" when the session is over. 

So why would someone who's coming through risk embarrassing their loved one by bringing up a long lost memory, or feeling of guilt? Because usually when someone comes to see me, there's often a feeling of unfinished business. Often it's because there wasn't a chance to say good-bye. It may be a feeling of not having done enough, or not having said, "I'm sorry," for a hurt that was caused. Many times it's about moving on with our lives here on this plane. 

Whatever it is, it's usually something that needs to come out in the open in order to be healed, and let go of, so our journey on this life of life can continued and their journey on the other side can evolve as well. The bottom line is that if you live your life to the full, and love those in your life to the full, you probably won't need a medium such as myself to make amends to those you love, and express that love you feel, when it's a little too late to do so, at least while they and you, are alive. 

Weeding my garden

Is there someone in your life that you only hear from when they need something? I have, or I should say, I had someone in my life like that. Until this morning that is. 

The person I'm referring to is having problems financially, and is trying to make a go of it as a professional graphologist. So asked me for me, so I made a number of suggestions as to what she could do to gain more exposure. Typically, she would tell me how that wouldn't work for her, and then I wouldn't hear from her again, until she wanted, or needed more advice. 

I'm not sure which amazes me more… the idea that she thought she could get away with it with me, of all people, or the idea that I let her get away with as long as I did. Now, I know that the majority of the responsibility for the way she acted towards me is my own. However, one of the things I've come to realize as I've healed is that my life is too short to have this type of person in it. 

There's a very popular morning radio show here in Denver with two disc jockeys that talks about "weeding your garden," as in ridding your life of people who just don't fit in it. This can sometimes be a hard thing to do, but it's necessary in the name of LOVE. In this case, love of yourself. 

I really believe that every once in a while it's a good idea to take a look at the garden of our lives, and pull up the weeds taking away from our enjoyment of it. 

Okay, I'm all moved in, and excited about my new home! I was slowly moving boxes over the months of June and July, but the final move, in which boxes went into my friends' Camille and Steve Massing's pickup truck took a lot longer than I anticipated. So instead of one day and two trips, it took 2 days and 7 trips! I just cannot thank Camille and Steve enough, especially Camille. 

In case you didn't know, my friend Camille is a very talented songwriter with the voice of an angel (http://www.camillemassing.com). While she was helping me move, we discussed the possibility of her singing her songs at my seminars. I'm excited to say that she is open to the idea! 

This past weekend I was TIRED! LOL But after soaking in a jacuzzi tub, and getting an awesome massage, I'm good to go! 

So, I'm looking forward to helping people reconnect with their loved ones on the other side in a bigger way than before. I'm going to close for now, but tomorrow, I'll start sharing with you some of the important revelations that came to me over the two days I moved. 

Blessings,

Anthony

Just venting

I was just talking to someone I know who asked about my upcoming "tour." I told her about it and mentioned that when I come back home, I'm planning on collapsing. 

"You should just train yourself to recharge more quickly," she suggested. "That's what I do."  This young lady has aspirations of being a full-time clairvoyant, and energy worker. 

"No offense," I told her, "but I can do clairvoyant stuff all day long. Mediumship is a different animal."

There are a lot of people claiming to be mediums these days, but most are anything but.... I recently met one woman who sees a woman who says she's a "medium," and what she does is pass messages along by doing card readings. In other words, she reads the cards of the person who passed away. By doing that she passes along "messages of guidance," or whatever she passes on and calls it "mediumship."

When someone comes to see me, the messages I receive, and give, aren't through cards, or guides or anything else. They are "mano a mano," or face to face. This takes a lot of energy out of me. 

I guess I just wanted to vent. I appreciate the idea that she was just trying to be helpful, she really was. But looking at her, it's obvious she doesn't run marathons. Neither do I. Then again, I wouldn't think of giving advice to a marathon runner that if they just changed their beliefs, they could run a marathon every other day either. 

On a more positive note, Cheryl and I went to see Lisa Williams at her seminar last night. I just love her energy. She has a way about her which is just adorable. Cheryl told me she had a great time. As for me, it was the first time I've been on the "other side" as far as doing seminars go. Normally, I'm the one doing the readings. It was nice seeing how the other side lives! LOL

Updates

I mentioned in a previous post that Cheryl's (my lady friend) dog, Prince, was sick and possibly needed to be put down. Well, I'm happy to say that he's fine. Apparently what was needed was a change in his diet. 

The apparent change that was needed was a clearing of Cheryl's home of the ghosts that are active in it. Members of Colorado Paranormal Rescue (CPR) came by and identified what was going on in her home and why. They took it a step further and cleared out a number of the apparitions in the home. 

The next day, according to Cheryl, Prince had more energy and and was more playful than he had been in a long time. 

I've been doing a lot of work getting ready for what is apparently the next stage of my career. It seems as though I'm going to be getting more exposure as a Psychic Medium. I'll let you know what that's about as it happens. 

Memorial Day weekend was busy for Cheryl and me. We went to quite a few parties, and basically ended up exhausted and lazy come Sunday and Monday. 

Cheryl is heading up to Wyoming for one of her nephew's graduations tomorrow, so I get to take care of Prince! My own cat, Albert, seems to be taking all the disruptions in our quality time in stride. 

Tomorrow, I'll be meeting with Colorado Paranormal Rescue to go over the evidence they collected at Cheryl's house with them while Cheryl is gone. I'll let you know what they find. 

More, and more lately, I've come to appreciate my friends, how much they mean to me, and how much I mean to them. I'm also appreciating more, and more, the effect that the work I do has on the people I serve. 

I guess what I'm saying is that I'm coming to a place in my life where I'm really appreciating my life, and my place in life. I'm also appreciating God more and more. Right now, I'm really happy. 

Special day for special people

I did a reading this morning for Dr. Steve. He's Natalie's husband he's been so patient (pardon the pun) with me. I've had to reschedule his reading a few different times because my life has been so hectic. 

It was a beautiful, life changing discernment. I believe that's what the work I do is about. Helping people heal so that they can heal their lives. 

I called my mother and two sisters after the reading to wish them a happy mother's day! All three of these women have had a profound affect on my life. Speaking of which, I still have to call a few more women to thank them for who they are. 

I'm getting ready to start, and finish writing a book over 10 days starting tomorrow! I'm excited about that, and I'll let you know how it goes! 

Boy, you can't charge me!

In case you didn't know, I'm from Guam, a tiny island in the South Pacific. I had dinner today with Joe and his wife Sue today. Joe is from Guam as well, and Susan, his wife, lived there with him for 10 years. 

I asked Joe if I could bring a friend, and they said I could. When they saw Cheryl, they told us how relieved they were that they could "see" my friend. They admitted that they were worried I would bring a friend they couldn't see! 

It was a great time, great company, and great food from back home. I was telling Joe that if I were still back on Guam, I would be the equivalent to a "witch doctor" here. Joe reminded me of something I forgot. 

"Man, you would be well respected, and well fed, but you'd be penniless!" I laughed so hard, I was bent over, and almost peeing my pants! He was absolutely right on the money! 

You see, on Guam, relationships are everything. And if you can't establish a relationship, you try to establish a connection. 

"Boy!" he said, imitating people from Guam ("boy" is a very affectionate endearment), "your grandmother was neighbors with the grandmother, of the woman who dated the brother of a guy who worked with my sister. You can't charge me!" 

Or, "Boy! You can't charge me! My cousin went to school with the girl who worked behind the counter at Mc Donalds. Anyway, the girl who worked behind the counter has a brother who works as a mechanic who fixed the car of the best friend of one of your uncles! Like I told you, you can't charge me!" 

Boy, am I glad I live in the "States!" 

Blessings,

Deadlines

Yesterday, after I finished blogging and doing everything I could think of doing on my computer,  I left the Starbucks I was sitting in and decided to walk to the grocery store in the same shopping center. So I put my computer in my car, and started walking when I saw a bumper sticker that said, "I'd Rather Be On Stage."  I knew immediately it was another sign. 

Then this morning I was journaling about a realization I had in my morning meditation. When I was done I saw a booklet laying on the floor of my living room. It was entitled, "Messages From Your Angels," and it was part of a Doreen Virtue Angel Card deck. The sub-title was, "What Your Angels Want You to Know." 

Inside the booklet was a small card that had, "Inspire Hope," printed on it. I knew that coupled with the bumper sticker I saw yesterday it was an answer to a prayer. I talk more about this on my other blog http://anthonyquinatapsychicmedium.wordpress.com. 

Yesterday being the dreaded deadline for filing taxes, I thought about writing about "deadlines" but decided against it until today. I was told once that the word, "deadline" came from the term "a drop dead date," in which something absolutely had to be done by, no later. 

I thought, that made sense; and it also makes sense that it would be called a DEAD line. Theoretically, after that, all options are exhausted. If you think about it, we were all born with a "deadline." Everyone we know and love, like, dislike, even hate, has a "dead line," or "drop dead date." 

I just want to suggest to you that since you don't know when your drop dead date is, you live each day as though it were your last. Since you don't know what the drop dead date of a loved one is, you treat them as though it were today. This goes for those you like as well. 

As for those you dislike or hate, perhaps it's time to do show some forgiveness. Relationships are hard enough in this life. The problems don't go ahead with death, but they are harder to resolve on the Other Side.

Signs

When I was in Junior High there was a hit song by "The Five Man Electrical Band," entitled, "Signs." "Signs, signs, everywhere there's signs…" the chorus went. 

I'm becoming more and more aware that signs really are everywhere! One of them was an answer to my prayer and it came in a phone conversation I had with Josie, who told me of an incredible sign I'll tell you about in a minute. 

Starting last August, I set a goal to re-make my life completely by September 30th, of 2008. Shortly after that, several psychic types have been telling me that this will be a HUGE year for me, and that it will really explode around October of this year! 

Well, just because a psychic tells me, or you, something doesn't necessarily mean that you can just sit around and wait for it to happen. So, I've been proactively ensuring that my plans and their predictions become a reality. To paraphrase my new friend, Dr. Noah St. John (www.successclinic.com), "I'm not only working on my inner game, but I'm also working on my outer game as well." One of the things I'm doing is "afformations." To find out more about what afformations are, please see Noah's website. Afformations really can change your life. 

As I mentioned before, I'm also developing an attitude of gratitude. But lately, over the past week or so, I'm feeling as though I'm being nudged by God to ask for what I want, and look for the answer in signs. So I've been doing research into the whole notion of signs, and boy, have they been showing up for me! So much so, I'm thinking I'm going to write an e-book on the subject. 

Anyway, there are a few people in the world I just love talking to. One of them is Camille, whom I talked about yesterday, and another is Noah, whom I just talked about. Another is no stranger to you if you're a regular reader of my blog, and that's Josie Varga. 

Josie has Cerebral Palsy, is bi-laterally deaf, and has more moxy than I have on my best day! I love talking to her, and sometimes we'll talk several times a week; other weeks it'll only be once. Well, yesterday I got a "signal from the ether" to call Josie. 

We started talking about the television show she's trying to place with a producer, and ultimately a network which revolves around Medium Natalie Smith-Blakeslee, and yours truly.

Then she told me about the "sign" she and her family saw last Saturday. 

Josie, her husband John, and their two daughters, Erica, and Lea, all went shopping at a local mall. When they came home Erica looked up and said, "Wow, look at that!" 

Josie, John and Lea all looked up and what they saw moved Josie to tears. A single cloud was in the sky in the shape of an "angel." "You could see it had wings, and it was wearing a robe!" Josie told me. 

"Do you see that? Do you see that?" she asked John. 

"Yeah, I see it," John replied. 

Josie suggested that John get a camera so they could take a picture of it, when the cloud started to dissipate. A few moments later is was gone. 

John reminded Josie that another Medium told her there would be a sign in a cloud. Josie looked for her taped recording of the session. When she found it and played it, sure enough, the Medium had predicted that there would be such a sign - for John, from his father. 

John, the "open-minded skeptic" was flabbergasted. Was it really possible that his father had gone to such great lengths to let John know he loved him from the Other Side?

I teased John about being a skeptic, an open minded one, but still.... "I'm not a skeptic anymore!" John said. 

As Blaise Pascal once said, "There's enough light for those who believe to see, and enough darkness to blind those who don't." 

For me, John's sign from his father was a sign from God telling me I'm on the right track. 

Wishing you the very best life has to offer to you and those you love, 

Anthony

Someone I'd like you to meet...

My closest, and dearest friend, whom I've known for about 19 years is Camille Massing. I can't begin to imagine where I would be in my life right now if it weren't for her. When I was struggling with the idea of being a Medium, she was there with her unconditional support. 

Camille is a singer with the voice of an angel. She's also a talented songwriter.  Over the years we've known each other we've written a number of songs together, and she recorded them onto a cd entitled, "King's Ransom." It's a compilation of Christian songs that you'll enjoy if you like Joni Mitchell, or Amy Grant. 

She's a incredible spirit, and her love for God is reflected in her beautiful music. You can find her cd on www.cdbaby.com, or by going to www.camillemassing.com. Personally, my favorite song is "King's Ransom." Give it a listen! 

I received an e-mail this morning from a woman whose daughter, Chrissy, came through during her discernment session with me. She is asking for sponsorship as she walks in a fundraiser for suicide prevention. You can find more information on my website. I hope you'll find it in your heart to make a donation! 

Well, it's going to be a short one! I've got to get cracking on my taxes!

Being grateful

I had a great session with a young lady named Jill Wednesday night. She came hoping to hear from her mother and she did. 

Her mother had such great energy; and Jill, while feeling nervous and skeptical, was awesome throughout! The love she had for her mother and her mother had for her was awesome! Jill posted a comment thanking me, but as I told her, "Don't forget to thank God for making this possible, and your mother too. This takes a lot of energy and effort on her part!" 

Speaking of gratitude, it snowed most of the day yesterday which put me in a lazy mood. I received a text from my friend Debbie who asked me if I thought Mother Nature would ever make up her mind as far as the weather was concerned. 

Well, having decided to stay inside at home all day yesterday I wrote back, "I sure as hell hope so!" This morning it came to me that the constantly changing weather this time of the year is one of the reasons I chose to live in Colorado! While it snowed all day yesterday, it'll be in the 70's by the middle of next week according to the weather forecasters! I've got to tell you, I love it! 

A lot of people think that because of the work I do I'm somehow closer to God than most. Nothing could be farther from the truth, although I have been meditating over the past several days about the idea that God is within me. I've also been thinking a lot about the nature of this Spirit of God within me. I then started thinking that I really have a lot to be grateful for. 

I was watching a movie last week and the thought came to me that overall, with all of it's ups and downs, I've had a very good life. I just didn't bother to see it that way. 

Well, this morning I started being grateful for my life, and everything about it, the way it is now. Things didn't magically start getting better, but I did start feeling better! 

Then a number of things I've read before started to make sense to me! For instance, the idea that what we dwell on grows in our life. I used to wonder how I could focus on my life being anything other than the way it is now. Now I know. If I want things to be different I have to start being grateful for the way I want them to be, even if they're not that way now. 

Now that my eyes are open, I'm going to be even more grateful for all that I have in my life, and to the God who gave me my life. I know that only good can come from this. I'll be sharing that good with you as it does. 

It's my hope that sharing this with you, you'll start to think of all that you have to be grateful for in your life, especially those you love and are still with you. I'd like to suggest that you tell them how much they mean to you before it's too late, and you have to come to a Medium like me to do so. 

Blessings.
