I have been connected to spirit my entire life.
As a child, like many of us who don’t understand our own power, I shut myself off from my gifts in fear.
When I was 10 years old, I activated a Ouija board to so many spirits at once I used all the power in my little being to shut off the portal – lying to my friends, and faking the movements of what the board was communicating (Sorry, Ellie!)
The auras and energies I could see around people and plants I assumed were daylight. The fact that I was seeing something not everyone could see never occurred to me.
When I first saw the spirits that occupied my cottage, I was so scared that slept inside a sleeping bag, under wool blankets, in the middle of the summer. Every night. I was trying to block the sound of them running up and down the stairs.
