Children
( 22 items )
The only perfect love to be found on earth is ... the wordless commitment of families, which takes as its model mother-love.
- Germaine Greer.
Children are our future and we need to be sure that we are giving them the right food for development in all areas that they deserve. Both the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual goodness.
How do we do this?
By using our own spiritual 'instincts' so that we can develop and expand even as they are doing; the path of progression is a fruitful one, but only if we are open to allowing our families and others to help us all grow.
As a mother I have found that children teach us too, it is a two way street this learning thing, and now my children are grown I feel that they look after me, not just in a dutiful way, but in a loving way, as I tried to do for them over all those years.
When I asked, [one day feeling a bit blue] "Did I make a half good job of being a Mum?" My daughter replied "Mum, we are proud of you!"... That wasn't the question, however, I took it as a complement...!

Healing Prayer
Divine Spirit, creator of all life, we remember
all those who are sick in body, mind and spirit, please give to them your peace
in pain and your strength in their weakness.
Uplift their spirits and bring
them love and harmony. We pray especially for those whose names are inscribed
in the healing books in all the churches throughout the world. Let us also not forget the animal kingdom in our prayers, they
are often victims who suffer as a result of man's cruelty and greed, and need
our love and protection from harm.
Bless all of those who devote much of their
time and are so dedicated to those who would be healed. We leave them in your
loving care and keeping. Amen.
A healthy attitude precedes a healthy life.
THE HEALING SECTION IS BOTH FOR THE HEALER AND THE PATIENT!
In all the years I have been a healer the most common problems are those of the heart, comfort and counselling is a big part of what we as healers do. The fact is this ... Emotional, Physical, Spiritual, and Mental aspects are all connected, after all they are all in the same being!
Spiritual Healing is for all these levels, and often when we are in the middle of our problems we do not know where those problems originate. For the healers in the spirit world that is no difficulty, they heal on all of the layers of our being, they treat whatever is needed, we only have to ask.
Spiritual Healing works, or quite simply babies and animals would not be healed - and they are!
LOVE is the Key to Healing All - and I do mean all of whatever is wrong anywhere and on any level, simply because love is right harmony, and anything else is not.
Amen to that.
WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT?
When you come into a healing sanctuary you will notice there is a quiet atmosphere, this is because the healer needs to concentrate on the job at hand. No, the healer is not actually healing the patient, s/he is passing on the healing energies from the spirit world.

Mediumship
( 15 items )
The possibility of stepping into a higher plane is quite real for everyone. It requires no force or effort or sacrifice. It involves little more than changing our ideas about what is normal.
Deepak Chopra.
Mediumship is the connecting of two worlds but without the equipment we usually use to see with!
In this section I have put the personal aspect foreword a little more.
Don't forget that opinions are valuable short-cuts when given from the experienced ones, but we all must 'test the spirit' of everything we see and hear, this is what spiritualism is all about - take nothing as 'carved in stone', we spiritualists have no creed or dogma, all is left to your commonsense and intelligence.
I would say that on this section the article 'What is a medium' is best read first, then 'Preparation for the skill' even though you might think you know what a medium is - it's worth revising the actual definition if only to find out what a medium is NOT!
"Physical Mediumship" is many things here we explain Materialisation - Transfiguration - Direct Voice and others.
"Sir Arther Conan Doyle materializes" in the modern age ... 2006!
"Tarot and Mediumship" Is there still after all this time a prejudice against this method of connecting with the other world?
"Conditions for Mediumship" the room and conditions are important.
"Automatic Writing" The Bible acknowledges this form of mediumship.
"The Exercise of Visualisation and Meditation" There is an exercise on this page.
"How Many Mediums of What Age" is an old survey from different countries.
"Trance Mediumship" What's the difference between a medium and a telephone...? Answers on a post card...[not!]
"Preparation for the Skill" Methods and abilities - I am often asked, "What can I do to help myself?"
"Why I'm a channel" My own experiences here.
"What is a Medium?" --- 'Psychic' or 'Clairvoyant' or 'Medium' or 'Spiritualist'?
"Mediumship Evidence" Covers both mental and physical.
"Physical Mediumship" is the use of energy..
"Mediumship is Serious Stuff!" Whats the Law of the Land got to do with it?
Happy reading!

Clairvoyance Articles
( 15 items )
Miracles
are not contrary to nature, but only contrary to what we know about nature.
Saint
Augustine.
(Clairvoyance) - ORIGIN from French clair ‘clear’ + voir
‘to see’.
· noun: apparent power to perceive things that are not present
to the senses.
Encyclopedia article. Clairvoyance is defined as a form of
extra-sensory perception that it is claimed allows a person to perceive distant
objects, persons, or events, including "seeing" through opaque
objects and the detection of types of energy not normally perceptible to
humans.
Main Entry: clair·voy·ance
Pronunciation: klar-'voi-&n(t)s, kler-
Function: noun
1 : the power or faculty of discerning objects not present to the
senses
2 : ability to perceive matters beyond the range of ordinary
perception
Clairvoyance /klair voy nss/ • noun the supposed faculty of perceiving
events in the future or beyond normal sensory contact.
clair·voy·ance [ klair vóyəns
] or clair·voy·an·cy [ klair
vóyənsee] seeing what is not normally seen: the supposed ability
to see things beyond the range of normal human vision.
[ Mid-19th century. From French, from clairvoyant “clear-sighted"
from voyant , the present participle of voir “to see" ]
Question: What do we mean when we talk about an "Entity"? It is often used to refer to ghosts and other spirits.
Described in the dictionary as 'something that has a distinct and separate
existence', though it need not be a material existence. In general, there is
also no presumption that an entity is animate.
The word entity is often useful when one wants to refer to something
that could be a human being, a non-human animal, a non-thinking life-form such
as a plant or fungus, a lifeless object, or even a belief; for instance. In
this way, entity could be seen as a "catch all” word.
Sometimes, the word entity is used in a general sense of a being,
whether or not the referent has material existence; e.g. is often referred to
as an entity with no corporeal [body] form.

Auras / Chakras
( 10 items )
AURAS are electrical force fields that surround all objects existing in the material world - 'living' and otherwise. Plants have theirs too!
The energies that suround and penetrate the patient are registered through the Chakras - the healer may use these to watch and/or assist the spirit healers at work.
Chakras and auras are a natural part of the human energy system, they are our acess to the UEF .... what's that?
Read on ...
We are fuller and better people when we recognise and acknowledge God's hand; we vibrate with joy and gratitude - for God, for the Universe, and for all its creatures with whom we are interconnected in a great field of spiritual energy laden with meaning, order and love.

The Great Masters
( 11 items )
No matter what activity or practice we are pursuing, there isn't anything that isn't made easier through constant familiarity and training. Through training, we can change; We can transform ourselves.
- The Dalai Lama.
WHO ARE THE GREAT MASTERS?
They are spirit people both from here in our time and long past, residing now in the spirit world. They speak through mediums of great talent who were chosen to be of service especially for the task of recording the communications from the 'other side'.
The prophets of religions all over the world are called Great Masters by anyone, and we add the esteemed names of those who come to enlighten in more modern times, through communications both of the direct and indirect. [See Articles - Mediumship - Physical Mediumship.]
Put the name of Edgar Cayce into a search engine to see more about one of the most famous people in recent years - also the Lodge of the famous Master White Eagle has it's own website too.
In the old days an artist would make a drawing of the spirit manifestation that could be seen by all in the Seance room - later with the technology of photography, other ways were found to record spirit people.
This is how we know the appearance of some of these beautiful Spirit Beings that you have perhaps seen in the churches up and down the country.
They come in many ways to bring comfort and cheer into our lives of seeming difficulties,
They tell us that they have no fear for the world, for they see with other eyes that all will be well in the sight of The Great White Spirit - God.
Silver Birch is one of my favorites and I have added to the articles below. He is also known as 'The Gentle Spirit'.
You might think this name is an unusual one, it of course an assumed one of his own choosing, because the modesty of all the Great Masters is such that should they have been perhaps famous in their own time, it would not be appropriate for us to read their words with that foremost in our minds, would it?
Reincarnation as a subject is not discussed by all Masters, this does not mean it is not upheld, but the climate was not always conducive to this 'new' way of thinking in the past, and the western political Christian doctrine made it positively dangerous at certain times in our history!
But as the world has shrunk to a more accessible size and education has expanded our horizons this subject is more readily embraced as a philosophical concept, and not dismissed as an unreasonable idea.
Other modern authorities include Maurice Barbanell, the famous Healing Medium Harry Edwards, the author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle - Stainton Moses. - Charles H Foster see this site for more names www.survivalafterdeath.org

Saint Theresa's Prayer
May today there be peace within.
May you trust God that you are exactly where
you are meant to be.
May you not forget the
infinite possibilities s that are born of faith.
May you use those gifts that you have received, and
pass on the love that has been given to you.
May you be content knowing you are a child of God.
Let this presence settle into your bones, and
allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and
love.
It is there for each and every one of
us.
NOTE: GETTING TO KNOW YOUR GUIDES IS REVISED INTO TWO PARTS ON THE SAME ARTICLE.
Dear
Reader,
So,
we come to the Lessons Section and let's not forget we are all learning on our
road of progression and that this progression continues, even beyond 'the
veil'. The items on this list are in no particular order ... I leave it up to
you to pick what you are interested in just now.
The Masters teach
us that we go to a spirit world when we sleep, did you read "The boy who
saw true" yet? It’s on the reading list; this is one of the teachings in
that book too.
As a teacher of Awareness and
Development I find a very common problem people find is like this ...
Question:
How do we prevent getting bogged down with
the material stuff that just keeps popping up in the Circle situation during
the quiet time of meditation?
Answer:
It is not possible to
'make the mind a blank' so don't expect to do that, just be aware that as a
thought comes into the mind that is not needed just now [what shall we have for
dinner etc...] and treat it as you would a child, either a) through the use of
a metaphor i.e. lead it away by the hand, 'show it the door' or b) ignore it as
you would a friend interrupting you, i.e. shrug your shoulders and go back to
where you were before you became aware of the 'no problem' interruption.
A basic prerequisite
if you are wanting to be successful in your Awareness and Development is
helping others. Now you might not have time to spare in your daily life, so
here is another way ...
Each night before you
go to sleep say in your prayers "Dear Lord, while I sleep please take my
spirit to a restful place and let me help others."
Then when you wake up say "Lord, Thank you for helping me on my
path."
You will find that you have
been refreshed through overcoming your own very normal human elements.
Please read the short item on Safe Spiritualism [below] because
this is so important to us all, OK?
Happy reading!
Stella.
There are so
many great treasures and miracles within you, so many magical
possibilities hidden inside you. Through discipline, you can make them
manifest for you, and in this way, you can make the earth a greater
place.

Teaching
( 12 items )
The best universities of the 21st century will bring together
brainpower where it is, not where it can be institutionalized. The aim
must be to create a republic of the intellect open to all, whose
natural constituency will be those who keep themselves intellectually
aware throughout their lives.
—Sir Douglas Hague, Beyond Universities: A New Republic of the Intellect, 1991
Dear friends,
If you have come to this page you might be in some capacity a teacher already, or starting out as a willing learner. Teaching is a special gift - and the teacher is blessed from Spirit.
We all are teachers in our own way, if only to ourselves on the path of progression. Without trying, we teach others what to expect of us - and hope not to let them down.
The key to successful teaching is to overcome the ego and ask for guidance from the Spirit Guides and Helpers. They too are on their path of learning back to Him.
In love they serve us and we them.
I have put here the CLASSES IN 6 PAGES for boosting the communications between the two worlds. First copy the Questions and then you will understand the lessons and use them as you go along ...OK?
The evaluation form is to be filled out before the Certificate of attendance is given - or you will not get the much needed feed-back for your next classes ...see?
I have tried to get the printing straight, but some of the format is not always going correctly...ah me!
Every student says: "Stella, how on earth can I progress faster?" The answer my friend is simply this: "Talk to them, they are waiting!"
I have put 'A List of Seminars' on here to give ideas for teaching in your local church, if you live in Norfolk I am now going out teaching again so get in touch through the email on the Main Menu.
Kindest regards to you,
Stella.

PHOTOGRAPHY OF SPIRIT BEINGS
The history of Spirit Photography goes back as far as photography itself.
The subject is very open to the hoaxer, as you can imagine, but many scientists have gone to great lengths to prevent this aspect - and been amazed!
There are good evidential photographs hanging in the Morley Church near Leeds at Zoar Street.
I was fortunate to be given copies for myself many years ago - and I treasure them.
