How to talk to the dead
I’ve been a believer in things metaphysical for a few years now and it still amazes me that dead doesn’t mean dead and that our “dead” loved ones are constantly with us. How reassuring is that. I’m not sure who it’s attributed to, but I love the saying “the dead are more alive than the living.” I think that’s so true. These are some of the ways our deceased loved ones may be trying to reach us.
DREAMS
I have read that the dead communicate with us most through dreams. I have been lucky enough to have had one of those dreams. The difference between a regular dream and a real visit is that the visit will feel a thousand times more real. It’s like you’re awake instead of asleep. After you have a visit I encourage you to write down everything you remember. Write down your impressions, how the person looked, his features, gestures, what was his message? You’ll be surprised how quickly these details fade as the day progresses. If you want to start the process, just before going to sleep, ask for a particular person to appear in a dream. You may want to send the request and the intention to remember the dream.
NATURE
The deceased love to communicate through nature. They can do this by sending you butterflies or red roses. You may notice a rainbow in the sky. If the person had a favorite thing about nature, like loving cardinals or enjoying caterpillars, you may start to notice cardinals and caterpillars everywhere. Remember that in life there are no coincidences. Trust your gut. If you feel it was a message, believe with all your heart that it was. Remember, believing is seeing. You need to believe first and then you will see.
SONGS
The dead seem especially good at manipulating songs on the radio. Again, this is trusting your gut. Don’t be afraid to believe. Pay attention to the lyrics of the song. It could be something as simple as hearing your wedding song on the radio all the time, or it could be not the song but the lyrics. Our spirit guides also like to communicate with us through music.
STRANGE OCCURRENCES IN THE HOUSE
Deceased loved ones are great when it comes to manipulating objects and electricity. Some people have even reported that their phone will ring but there is no one on the other line. I once read a book in which the deceased loved one had a real conversation on the phone. Isn’t that just amazing?! The deceased can make the lights turn on and off. They can knock books off shelves or cause wall hangings to warp. He may start to find pennies or even quarters in odd places like in the refrigerator or silverware drawer. Again, don’t forget to trust your gut. If you are thinking that something is a communication, then believe with all your heart that it is in fact a deceased loved one trying to communicate with you.
SEE MEDIUM
This is a truism that probably doesn’t even need to be mentioned. You don’t need to see a medium to communicate with a dead person. You can absolutely do it yourself. Once, during a reading, my late aunt joked with the medium that he was her amplifier. It works a bit like this. Using a medium will likely allow you to receive more information and a wider range of details. Just before the reading it helps to mentally ask that person to come forward during the reading.
