There was a time when my friends and I became curious of the spirit world and all those unanswered questions such as what happens when we die is there another side. We met in our back room and formed a circle round a table with a Ouija board candles a glass to spell out words and numbers. This was new for all of us as we sat nervously, we saw and felt our first communication a woman from France in the early years not sure just at the moment. She volunteered to materialise and I did not react well she had a presence and got on well with the main speaker. That same night as I went to bed ready for sleep and after bidding farewell to all,I heard the sound of bare feet advancing towards my bed I was so scared i pulled the covers over my head willing the spirit to go away. The next time we had another seance we came across a younger girl who had departed this world and she took a liking to me as my friend told me in so many words. It came to be that she would become a good friend and valuable teacher as there were things I could not possibly know without spirit teachings. I became more involved with the spirit world as if it consumed everything in my life I read mounds of books and attended lectures about every conceivable subject. I attended a spirit church and listened to there lectures and clairvoyants and purchased books and tapes some I wouldn’t read for years to come when the time was right. I attempted to find a psychic circle there but to no avail. I went along to an advertised meeting I read about and revealed I had seen a vision of a car after an Irish bombing and  was told I was right to come hear and that I must try to get more details of the car as an identity number. People sat in a circle and tried to read each other of which I did on first attempt but just dismissed it as I felt it was obvious. I would sit alone and meditate and see the other side and be told of what happens there as there is only joy and love no pain or angst. Later on I found a circle I could join where we read flowers at the end prior we would offer a protective prayer and then go into silence for a while. This was a development in progress as visions became stronger as the group or circle became used to each other and spirit worked through us well. Prior to this I gave readings from photographs advertised in a magazine. I did this for about a year or so but I felt this was not for me taking money for readings I simply wanted more. I began a tarot key study and examined the principles for the next eight years of which I have completed feeling I went as far as I could with them. I get visions quite a lot and had to ask a friend what some meant as they were signs along the way in life. I have covered areas like karma and destiny and found the Buddhist way to envelope what i believed in Rather than the confines of conventional religions.
