The Path of the Soul

Has it ever happened to you that right after the first time you hear a new word, expression, or meet somebody new, or see a new car color, you start literally bumping into this to no end, while it seems that it has simply not existed before (at least for you)?

It happens me to quite often, like in the case of 'physical mediumship'. I've heard of mediumship, of course, but not in combination with 'physical'. So where did I hear about this before?
Well just this morning as I was (still) reading Messages, the book I reviewed here. The author describes a session which is quite intriguing. Basically it is not that much about hearing voices in your mind, or getting messages through mediums, but about actual physical manifestations of spirits, by something touching you, or you seeing tiny unexplainable lights in a dark room, or hearing voices (and not through an person), etc.

So I quite enjoyed reading about this in the book Messages. Today during lunch time at work, I was browsing one of the UK spirituality forums, and there it was, a whole section of the forum devoted to physical mediumship. I was grinning widely at this point :-D

I've decided to split my original blog in two, based on my two main interests. The first remains devoted to displaying my artisan jewelry (jewelry which can be purchased directly from my blog), and the second, this one here, will be the pen to record my online spiritual journey. Here can be anything, results of meditation sessions, book reviews, thoughts on spiritual, metaphysical and occult, weird experiences, pretty much anything out of the regular daily life.

All my life I have been an atheist - not by choice, but by location (think ex-communist Eastern Europe), so I had no - or almost no - contact with anything religious or spiritual.
Coming to Cyprus many years ago I had a strong culture shock, as Cyprus is a very religious country (Cristian-orthodox).

I did adjust eventually, and had time to get in contact with organized religion as well. But somehow this did not appeal to me at all, it's something I cannot embrace, I don't feel comfortable around church and very religious people. Could be because of my atheist upbringing, or something from a past life that I still need to deal with...

At the same time I didn't find atheism and materialism very convincing either, so I started my search for something else, something that made more sense to me. I'm still searching, and you can follow me on my journey on this blog.

Some of the things I've 'dabbed' into during the last few years, or at least I've read several books about:
- astrology
- tarot
- ouija
- psychic development
- remote viewing (related to the previous)
- contacting the other side through mediumship and EVP
- which finally lead me to reincarnation and past lives

From all these subjects, I seem to have 'stuck' throughout the years with interest in psychic abilities and the 'other side'/past lives.

Let's see where this journey will take me...
