HOGMANAY CELEBRATION RITUALS CONTINUE IN NEW COUNTRY

Happy Hogmanay All! 


Some rituals:


 The first-foot to cross your threshold in at midnight as you walk into the New Year is to be a tall, dark haired man to herald in good luck for the rest of the year. Beware of a red-headed person crossing the threshold first - threatens the year will have bad luck. 


Gifts to Bring a Scot on New Year: A Coin, Shortbread, Black Bun, Salt, Coal, and Whisky,  
which represent financial prosperity, food, flavour, warmth, and good cheer respectively

The Chapter from my book,  The Skye in June,  below will give some other rituals the Scots do at the end and beginning of the New Year. In it you will learn how the MacDonalds continue their special rituals and celebrations in their new countries. Click the link under the photo to learn more about Hogmanay origins and celebrations. Enjoy!

HOGMANAY IN SAN FRANCISCO

THE MACDONALDS PLANNED to host their first party in America on New Year’s Eve, 1955. The family worked together to spruce up their flat in the weeks before the gathering.

Cathy busily washed the bay windows with June at her side, trying to be helpful. The soapy water dripped down the girl’s arms and into her rolled-up sleeves. 

“We have to make the house nice and clean for all the people coming. Is that right, Mommy?” June asked.

“That’s right, my wee clootie dumpling,” Cathy said. She watched June’s determined face as she carefully scrubbed at the glass. Her mind drifted back to when the idea of having a party on Hogmanay first arose. 

****
When it came to June, she prayed Granda and Granny B would visit for Christmas. Her wish brought up a conversation during dinner about past holidays in Scotland. Jimmy said how much fun the Scottish New Year was. Annie, who was old enough to remember, reminded her father that in Scotland, the New Year celebration was called Hogmanay.

“What a holiday it is! We have special things––traditions, like paying off debts before the first of January,” Sandy told the children in seriousness.

“We won’t have to worry about that tradition, eh, Jimmy?” Cathy said. Her husband didn’t believe in accumulating debts and lived frugally, day-by-day. He prided himself in being able to send weekly payments to Granda B for the money he had loaned them to make their move to America possible.

“Mommy, what were the parties like at Hogmanay?” June said, crucifying the name the Scots called New Year’s Eve and the days following. It sounded like she said, “Hug many.”

The adults laughed so cheerfully that she joined in, thinking how happy everyone was with her question. 
They began to reminisce about Hogmanay. The descriptions of the holiday spilled out across the dining table as Jimmy, Sandy and Cathy related their stories about Scotland’s most popular holiday, which was celebrated as though it were a religious event.

When Jimmy said the streets of Glasgow were busy with people going from house to house starting on New Year’s Eve, visiting and bringing gifts, June gathered that Hogmanay was like Halloween night.

“What kind of gifts?” she asked.

Annie piped in, “Granny always baked special things like holiday oat cakes and black buns.”

“Whiskey cake and her famous shortbread. Oh yum!” Cathy jumped in, winking at her daughters as she licked her lips and made a wide circle on her belly.

“Good whiskey,” Jimmy added.

Sandy told a story about the time they went bathing in the Clyde River, just to see who could endure the cold water the longest. “It was so bloody frigid. If it hadn’t been for the whiskey keeping my blood moving and Cathy’s brother, Peter, jumping in to pull me out…”

Nancy interrupted the story with a sharp, “Sandy! That’s not a good example for the children.”

“Right dear. We were silly boys then. It’s a very dangerous thing to do,” he said seriously.

Cathy covered her smiling lips with a napkin and made big eyes at her daughters.

“Tell us more, Mommy,” June said, enjoying the cheery conversation.

Her mother clasped her hands and placed them on the table in front of her, her blue eyes glittering in the candlelight. Everyone sat still and listened as Cathy’s soft Scottish voice told the story.

“There’s a very special ritual on Hogmanay that begins at midnight on New Year’s Eve, acted out in the homes across Scotland. It’s customary that the first guest, called the first foot, enters a home shortly after midnight. It’s tradition that the first foot is a dark haired man who comes bearing gifts. It’s usually a lump of coal to keep the host’s home warm through the long cold winter and a bottle of Scotch to warm their souls.”

Jimmy interrupted, “Ye hope it’s a dark haired man who enters first, because then you’d have good luck throughout the upcoming year.”

Cathy kept talking, “Girls, your Granda B was a most welcomed guest as the first foot because he was tall and had black hair.” She was looking dreamily into the candle flame. “Until his hair turned white, that is.” Although she said it lightly, June sensed sadness in her mother’s voice.

“Aye, he was always the life of the party, getting everybody to sing and the ladies up for a dance. It’s his favorite holiday,” Jimmy said nostalgically.

The room quieted as the storytellers became lost in their own memories. June didn’t want the enchanting Hogmanay tales to end and she asked, “Can we have a party?”

Her sisters cheered the idea loudly.

Jimmy and Cathy looked at each other across the table. She hesitated, fearful of letting down the girls if she took a spell of depression.

“No a bad idea,” he said enthusiastically.

Looking at the girls’ excited faces staring at her, it was hard not to give in to them. Cathy decided that celebrating Hogmanay in America would start a family tradition in their new country.

PSYCHIC HOTLINES _ TRUE OR PHONY BALONEY?

Excerpt from "The Timeless Counselor: The Best Guide to a Successful Psychic Reading" available ebooks at Amazon.com and Smashwords.com  - read the overwhelming positive reviews at both sites.

4 out of 4 stars Review by jellybean85. "Psychic June Ahern gives readers tips on how to get a proper psychic reading in her book, The Timeless Counselor. Ahern goes into detail about everything a person needs to know before getting a psychic reading. Ahern debunks the myths about psychics and sheds light on what goes on at a reading, and why it’s important that people do their research before going to a psychic."

First published in The Berekly Psychic Instutite Newsletter. Updated in 2011.

-->
IN THE 1980’S I was aware of an increasing interest in a new way of giving and receiving a reading; the 1-800 psychic hotlines. At first, I hadn’t felt positive about psychic hotlines and when approached in 1977 to participate in one, I declined. I did so because of the controversy within the psychic community and with the public views about this kind of psychic service. I didn’t want to be associated with the lines because they gave that “fortune telling” image. Plus, I was unsure if the readers on the lines had true psychic abilities. After a while, I met some readers who worked on a few lines. They were good psychics, honest and talented hence my opinion slowly began to change.
Since the public is given a one-sided view as the media is always focusing on exposing the abusive side of psychic readings, I decided to survey several psychic hot lines by getting readings. 
 When I was approached in the early 1990’s to help develop and manage a psychic hot line, I accepted, knowing my ethical approach and keen ear for a true psychic could make the business a success for both querents and readers. The information below will give you the knowledge to decide if an on-line reading is for you.
Some question if a psychic can give an accurate reading by telephone. Absolutely! After all, it’s energy (aura and voice vibration or tone) that is being read as I have said earlier. Many of my clients are increasingly interested in telephoning in or Skyping or Face Time (or whichever app you use) for their readings because they do not want to deal with traffic delays, or because professional demands are squeezing their personal time. Also, I read for people throughout the United States and diverse parts of the world, the majority I’ve never met in person but have read successfully for years. When reading on the telephone, some readers might hone into your information through astrology or numerology (use birth dates) while others, read the tarot cards. Later on in the chapter, I’ll discuss more about recognizing a “real” reader.
Many different kinds of people call psychic hot lines. Some want a quick fix or do not have access to a psychic in their area, while other people seek anonymity. Men call the line often, perhaps for the latter reason and maybe not being seen (physically) they can freely express emotions. Also, those who have regular readers call because it’s only one question and their regular reader is not available. Additionally, there are people who are lonely and frightened and need to hear words of support and encouragement. Of course, there’s always the addictive needy person who has to be told what to do, over and over, and by a variety of people.
There are those who make impulsive calls to 1-800 hotlines for readings when an emergency arises or they feel lonely or depressed. Don’t let impulse drive you to hurriedly pick a line only to discover you were not happy with the experience. Not that you can’t call when an emergency arises, but choose a hotline before a crisis. Then when you do want or need a reading, you’ll be prepared (refer back to the chapters "How to Prepare for Your Reading" and "Questions to Ask".

SUDDEN DEATH: PHYSICAL BODY TO SPIRIT


In the past couple of days I'm being asked about the victims of the recent terrorist killings in Paris. Will the spirits of the shooting victims transition with ease? one person asked.

I do address this in my ebook, "How to Talk With Spirits" when asked by quite a few about the transition from body to spirit. This has been my experience as a medium. What I say to all, is pray for the spirit of those who had a sudden and often tragic, shocking death. Pray earnestly every day for the spirit to be a peace. Visualize the person (if you know her or him) in a white robe walking toward a brilliant warm sun until they merge or are evaporated into the sun. This can be a week long meditation. To the best of your ability, do not add your emotional grief or anger, or sorrow as that may effect the spirit from making the transition easily.

Ebook available at Amazon.com, Smashwords.com and Barnes and Noble.com. 

Review  my books  june ahern dot com.

• Do most of spirits cross over and just a few stay behind and if so, for how long do they stay with us, the living? Almost all spirits cross over within a short time after death especially deaths caused by age or a lingering illness. They welcomed death glad to be relieved from their pains and illnesses. In fact, elderly people go between the worlds, so to speak, for a few years before death. They stay on the other side during night as they nod off into a sleep state. They visit dead loved ones as though checking out where they are. When awake they will speak about their departed relatives and friends more often than usual.  When they do die and cross over it is easier for them to go.
After a sudden death such as a heart attack, stroke, accident or murder the spirit often lingers around earth a bit longer. They are as stunned as those left behind are, by the quick ejection from the body. They mourn their separation from life until they can accept the transition.

Suicide can bring a mixed transition. The spirit wants to rest from the chaos and pain of their life. When I communicate with the spirit of suicide victims there is remorse and much of the same emotional and mental pain continues. Their questions of why they are in pain and how can they get away from it remain unanswered in the spirit world. Then there is the guilt of the pain they left behind. There have been a few who found some rest soon after leaving, especially if they had a long, painful illness. My advice is to pray for the souls of your loved ones who found life too painful. To forgive them for leaving before a healing could be found. Your prayers will help them truly find the peace they sought while alive.

Official Review: City of Redemption by June Ahern

[Following is the official OnlineBookClub.org review of "City of Redemption" by June Ahern.]

Review by H0LD0Nthere

Share This Review

It’s every mother’s worst nightmare. Liz’s beautiful eight-year-old son is dead … and it’s her fault for delaying the investigation when he first went missing. The tragedy will destroy her already fragile marriage. She will be ostracized by her friends, pilloried in the newspapers, and rejected by her own mother. Eventually, she will leave her hometown of Glasgow, Scotland, and seek a new life in San Francisco, California. She will arrive during the Summer of Love.

Welcome to the opening chapters of City of Redemption. If you are a parent, I dare you to read without crying the chapter in which Patrick goes missing. Parent or not, come along for the ride if you want a story of grief, intrigue and friendship surrounded by sex, drugs, and rock ‘n’ roll.

City of Redemption is primarily about Liz settling in to San Francisco, the new friends she finds, and how she ends up helping the Black Panthers with some of their more clandestine activities. But the tragedy with her son is never far from her mind. Liz’s grief is a presence with her throughout the novel. It makes her reserved with the people in her San Francisco commune, but this reserve also protects her in some ways from the more dangerous aspects of the scene.

Liz, by the way, is a relatable character. The author shows us her faults as a young mom … she is young, selfish, and a bit irresponsible, but also dedicated to her son and certainly not a monster. Later, we see her broken, then matured by the tragedy.

Her grief is handled realistically. It comes up at natural moments, such as during conversations, drug trips, and other moments of vulnerability. Liz is sometimes seen having a private cry, even as she remains a strong character, functional though fragile. Masterfully, the author does not reveal all at once the whole story about what actually happened to Liz’s son Patrick. The reader will have to wait until nearly the end of the story to find out all the details, filled in progressively through flashbacks, memories, and conversations with Liz’s friends. As in an Alfred Hitchcock movie, the worst of the horror always happens “off screen” – that is, shown indirectly by being related by a third person or being revealed after it is already over. This extremely raw subject of a kidnapped child is very tastefully handled.

Like the tragedy with Patrick, the events in San Francisco are tastefully handled. Violence usually (not always) takes place off-screen, and is described matter-of-factly, not luridly. There are several very sexy scenes, but with one exception, nothing graphic. The characters’ dangerous lifestyle choices are not glamorized. Period details are spot-on, from the clothes to the cars to the music.

Music plays a major role in City of Redemption. We hear it on the radio, in the car, and live at concerts. Anyone who loves the music of the 50s and 60s will enjoy this aspect of it. Often a line or two is printed in italics, so that readers can hear the song in their heads. Fittingly, the songs often strike Liz as speaking directly to her situation at that moment. At the end of the book is a list of all the songs used, with the group who recorded them and the year they came out. Among others, there are “Stand By Me,” “Paint It Black,” “Don’t You Want Somebody To Love?,” “Love Me Do,” “Soul Man,” “Eve of Destruction.”

I do have a few, very minor quibbles with the book. First of all, the style is rather spare for the genre of book. Even drug trips are described in a very matter-of-fact way. This is good in some ways … the reader never gets confused, even when Liz is. The plain style moves the action forward quickly, making the book a page-turner. However, in scenes where not a lot of action is happening, and in descriptions of Liz’s thoughts, the plain style can get a little monotonous. I felt that a richer style of writing could have brought out more the latent tense or poignant emotions in the book.

Nor does the style do justice to the beauty of San Francisco. There are a few scenes that take place on the beach, and often we see the characters traveling through the picturesque, high hills of San Francisco, but mostly we have to imagine this stuff, because it is not evocatively described for us. The focus is always on the action and the dialogue, somewhat to the detriment of the scene.

This very plain style of writing extends to the transitions into flashbacks. Usually it is pretty clear when a flashback is happening, but in one critical scene near the end, the transitions were inadequate and I, at least, was confused for a few minutes until I realized the narrative was giving a glimpse of the day before.

Despite these minor flaws, the book is poignant, tense, well-researched and well-plotted. I give City of Redemption four out of four stars.

DAY OF THE DEAD COMMUNICATING WITH SPIRITS RITUAL


http://www.freeimages.com/photo/day-of-the-dead-1563589

The veil between the living world and the dead (spirit) world continues to stay open in the days following the Holy Eve or All Hallows or Halloween.

On this day, November 1st, Day of the Dead, loved ones and ancestors continue to be remembered in sacred rituals.  Below is a longer version of communicating and honoring your dead loved ones than I posted previously.

Excerpt from Chapter Ten in my ebook, "How to Talk with Spirits: Seances, Mediums, Ghost Hunts" available on Amazon, Smashwords,  Barnes and Noble. Links below at end of article.


Hark! Hark to the wind! 'Tis the night, they say,
When all souls come back from the far away
The dead, forgotten this many a day!

– Virna Sheard, Poet –


All Hallows Eve or Halloween and November First, are sacred times for many throughout the world to honor the dead. The indigenous people of Mexico combined their own rituals and celebrations with that of the Catholic church when the Spaniards invaded and conquered their county on November First.

The Mexicans honor their ancestors, and beloved dead with special rituals and celebrations. They have processions through weaved through the streets of their home towns and cities. Many banners and masks portray colorful death masks.

In and around the towns and cities are beautiful altars honoring the dead and include photos and special items of the dead. Some truly create a mini houses or special rooms where their relatives lived.

The Day of the Dead gatherings and celebrations are absolutely magically beautiful as well as eerie and frightening to some with all those skeleton faces. Some people fear death, some welcome it and some just deny it. But one way of another, you'll day to live the physical  body will happen and the Day of the Dead is a reminder of this fact.
Before it is dark on Halloween and/or on the Day of the Dead I encourage you to take time to honor those who have gone on to the "other side" whether you call that Heaven, Nirvana, or Slumberland.

Gather photographs of the deceased  - ones you would like to visit and light a candle. Reflect on them and think or even talk aloud anything you'd like to say. Be quiet, perhaps you'll mentally hear a message. If not then, often times in your dreams.

For a more elaborate ritual and how to communicate successfully read Chapter Ten in my book, How To Talk With Spirits: Seances, Mediums, Ghost Hunts.

WHO YOU GONNA CALL? GHOST WHO?

A SIMPLY MARVELOUS FUN TIME ON 

HALLOWEEN AND MORE!

 

Tonight the veils thin and the dead walk the earth. It can be a lovely time to invite our deceased loved ones to visit. Light a candle and place it in a window so they can easily find you. Perhaps leave them a treat and beverage they enjoyed while in body. I like to put a photo of each I'm inviting to visit tonight. 


When the ghosts come to visit, who you gonna call?



I am a ghost buster aka a spirit communicator. See The Haunted Bay videos of some ghost hunts.
This one was especially spooky to me. https://youtu.be/c7FsCWmWLQ8
this one I really enjoyed myself https://youtu.be/TU4BvpvX5AQ

This night is also called Samhain (pronounced SAH-win or SOW-in[1] is a Gaelic festival marking the end of the harvest season and the beginning of winter or the "darker half" of the year. Traditionally, Samhain is celebrated from sunset on 31 October to sunset on 1 November, which is about halfway between the autumn equinox and the winter solstice.

As the nights grow dark early and we retreat to the comfort of our homes, it is said our dreams become more vivid and meaningful. Take note of your dreams tonight as the spirit of your dead family and friends often visit you through them.

SEEKING AN HONEST PSYCHIC READER

How to find a psychic reader?


Finding a reputable, honest and gifted psychic reader isn't always easy.  My book "The Timeless Counselor: The Best Guide to a Successful Reading" is a complete consumer's guide.

In it you will learn how to query the psychic reader before making your appointment: The best way can be recommendations. Even when recommended, ask the person about her or his experience.

But don't just take the recommendation that this is the best reader for you and will fulfill your expectations.  For example ask the potential reader if you can record the session - and the way she (he) is paid plus much more.

Finding a reader: If you know no one or do not wish anyone to know you want a psychic reading, there are other ways to find one. I write about how to find in my book, how to find and interview a psychic reader.

Psychic June Ahern gives readers tips on how to get a proper psychic reading in detail about everything a person needs to know before getting a psychic reading. What I liked most about Ahern’s book is how she emphasized the importance of research before going to a psychic; how to find a psychic, and why it’s important to call ahead and ask questions before making an appointment. Ahern offers a list of questions to ask the psychic about their procedures, resources on how to find psychics and delves into the different types of fortune telling used by psychics. Overall, it was a good book and Ahern opened my mind up about the world of psychics.

Ahern discusses the various fortune telling methods, how to find a psychic, and what to expect when you get a reading. Ahren uses her experience as a psychic to help others get the best psychic reading they deserve. What I loved most about the book is how she opens your eyes up to the world of psychics. Ahren debunks the myths about psychics and sheds light on what goes on at a reading, and why it’s important that people do their research before going to a psychic. Many people think you just visit a psychic and get a glimpse into your future. But thanks to Ahern, she debunks that theory and points out there’s much more to psychic readings. The important piece of advice she gives readers is that they play an important part in making their future predictions come true. Sure, the psychic sees the future, but unless the customer does something to help, then the prediction isn’t going to come to fruition. One example Ahern gives in the book is how she told a client they’d advance in their career, yet when the opportunity arose they didn’t do anything about it. Months later when they client came back they were upset with her prediction, but when Ahern questioned them about any job offers they realized they passed up their opportunity.

DEAD MEN STROLL? TO WHERE?

DEAD MAN'S STROLL



 To listen to this fun, eerie song on youtube click the link above or see link below.

I was a kid when this song came out and I really liked it then, as I do now. We'd stroll along in lines. What's the message in it? Like is the guy dead and strolling where?

I think they'd stroll the grounds seeking company, looking for loved ones. What do you think?

Graveyards - are they spooky to you? I like them in the light of day.  Daytime they are peaceful, pretty and a good place to have a restful walk. I visit graveyards all over,wherever I travel. Reading the headstones, wondering about the families. Just being there in spirit with the spirits.

A nighttime... oh boy!t Kinda spooky - but then night does that, right? Brings out our senses more - on alert!

If you go to a graveyard to conjure up a spirit or two, take a flashlight, take an ID in case the groundskeeper demands to know what you're up to? Like he won't know, right? Take a cell phone in case of an emergency, like some drunken big dude runs into you or .... a dead man strolling. 

 If you do want to visit a graveyard at night and do some ghost hunting check out my ebook, "How to Talk with Spirits: Seances, Mediums, Ghost Hunts" for more tips and ideas.

Chapter 10 in the book gives you a sacred sweet Halloween Ritual to honor your dead and hopefully connect with them. All Hallows Eve or Halloween and November First, are sacred times for many throughout the world to honor the dead. The Celts and Mexicans honor their elderly, ancestors, and the dead with special rituals and celebrations on those days.

HALLOWEEN A TIME TO HONOR AND COMMUNICATE WITH THE DEAD

THE VEIL DROPS

BETWEEN THE WORLDS

Hark! Hark to the wind! 'Tis the night, they say,

When all souls come back from the far away

Virna Sheard, Poet –

Do you believe spirits continue to connect with you? 
And some continue to stay around planet earth?  
 I do



Why do I know there is something to it? I've been and contacted by many, many spirits and around a lot of spooky places.  I've know things about dead people I've never met and shared it with their living loved ones. And, I've been to the Otherside.

Please view an interview with me about one person's experience on Youtube.

You too can securely contact your loved ones who passed as read in my book's Chapter 110, which gives you a lovely Halloween ritual to honor and communicate with your loved ones who have passed.


Excerpt

HALLOWEEN, A SPOOKY, good time and all for amusement, right? 

The night is much more than just for fun. All Hallows Eve or Halloween and November First and Second are sacred times for many throughout the world to honor the dead. 

Cultures have special days to honor ancestors and the dead like the  Celts and Mexicans. 

The Catholic Church combined the pagan beliefs with their own to create a day to honor the saints on November first. 
  

Celtic pagans believed the veils between the two worlds- that of the living and dead  - thin then drop so spirits can walk the earth to visit their living relatives before crossing back over to the “underworld.” The spirits were not only our loved ones, but also all spirits who want to walk the earth, feel alive and connect to the living. During the spirits’ visit, spooky things happened, as you can imagine. The Celts disguised themselves to waylay troublesome or evil spirits so they wouldn’t recognize and haunt people. Tradition warned people, especially the elderly, the sick and the young, to stay safely hidden inside so they wouldn’t be grabbed and taken to the “Underground.”   

You can enjoy a most beautiful and heartfelt ritual in your home on All Hallows - Halloween.  It can be an elaborate affair or a simple one as read in my book.
