2023-08-21 19:55 dr-sweets Folks that are buried in the ground (and take time to decay) vs. cremated seem to have a stronger ability to connect to. Has anybody experienced that?
2023-08-21 19:56 trollt Most of my family were cremated. I was taught to ignore the dead and leave them behind. I am guessing that this influenced my disconnect; i also cannot really sense magical energy.
2023-08-21 19:57 dr-sweets hmm...thatโs interesting
2023-08-21 19:58 wickwayisup I have had experiences with people before they die. We talk in front of a window or door and they decide to go or stay the next day. I sometimes know them but I often know what city they are in and I find out the next day. I am afraid to tell loved ones that they decide to go. No one wants to hear that a loved one would choose to leave them. sometimes itโs very sad
2023-08-21 19:59 trollt Does Reverend Art have a notion of what the reality is, cosmologically? Do spirits of the dead have an eventual destination?
2023-08-21 19:59 wickwayisup In my sleep
2023-08-21 20:00 wickwayisup There are portals in many cities. sometimes I look at obituaries in those cities and oftentimes I know the person
2023-08-21 20:03 balkandiviner14 Did you connect in the same manner with spirits of deceased pets?
2023-08-21 20:03 balkandiviner14 Is mediumship optimal at crime solving?
2023-08-21 20:10 balkandiviner14 Interesting, but how does this work with ancestor worship? So at some point the ancestors reincarnate and they do not answer our prayers. I've read that a portion of that identity remains in the spirit realm
2023-08-21 20:11 phyllismargretgabor awe we called ot ghost hunting
2023-08-21 20:12 phyllismargretgabor lol yep. me too. too much sometimes
2023-08-21 20:12 reverendjames Yes, we do too

in in/famous and just out in nature!
2023-08-21 20:12 phyllismargretgabor there is a cemetery here that is quite scary
2023-08-21 20:13 phyllismargretgabor I have a fort near my house and you can hear the drums
2023-08-21 20:14 trollt Can reincarnation be intentional? I.e. can we find a way to decide into what we'll turn?
2023-08-21 20:14 trollt Can 2 spirits reincarnate into a single person?
2023-08-21 20:14 trollt Can 1 spirit reincarnate into 2 individuals?
2023-08-21 20:14 trollt Can people reincarnate backwards in time?
2023-08-21 20:15 dr-sweets Would it be fair to say that black magic (dirty work) is done by bad spirits (usually aligned with the devil) since good spirits (aligned with F, S and HS) would never do your dirty work for you.
2023-08-21 20:15 phyllismargretgabor if we can decide how do I learn?
2023-08-21 20:15 trollt Are you familiar with mediumship TECHNOLOGY? Machines which enable listening to ghosts? Do you think they're legitimate?
2023-08-21 20:15 dr-sweets ...there is apps for that ...LOL
2023-08-21 20:16 dr-sweets ...I donโt think I want that on my phone.
2023-08-21 20:17 trollt Is there a cycle to reincarnation? Does someone reincarnate 2-3 months afterwards? Is there a particular time at which the spirit comes INTO the body? Like at conception? 2-3 weeks after birth? Some other time?
2023-08-21 20:17 catherine-yronwode (1) Ancestor veneration is not the same as ancestor worship. (2) Not all who practice ancestor veneration believe in reincarnation.
2023-08-21 20:19 catherine-yronwode In other words, and speaking only for myself, i venerate a particular ancestor of mine and believe this ancestor is approachable in spirit now, after several thousand years and has never reincarnated, nor ever will.
2023-08-21 20:21 trollt Might we seek to learn about extended lifetimes and hundreds of years of pleasure and joy?

2023-08-21 20:26 trollt Is becoming a god valuable?
2023-08-21 20:27 dr-sweets The tail end Silent Gen., Baby Boomers and early Gen. X-er seem to have more mediums than later generations. Do you notice that?
2023-08-21 20:27 trollt I'm sure it would be fun, Reverend Art, you're a great person for reference on topics.
