WINCHESTER MYSTERY HOUSE, WHAT I'VE LEARNED

 Recently, I was invited to give a talk at the historical landmark, 

The Winchester Mystery House (WMH), in San Jose, California 

about a possible connection between 

Sarah Pardee Winchester and the Spiritualism Movement (SM).

Now I read that the WMH is offering a new tour (see below) including some of  information about Sarah and SM.

One of the things I found of most interest was that Sarah and the SM came to existence in the US in the same decade - 1840s. An energy, a vibration of change toward the belief that spirits continue to exist after death and that they can and communicate with us. 

Heavens knows how many, many over 45+ years I have been contacted by and contacted with spirits. Learn more about my journeys in my book, How to Talk With Spirits: Seances, Mediums, Ghost Hunts and see The Haunted Bay an historical series on Amazon Prime and YouTube where I investigate hauntings. 

Was Sarah Winchester interested in, and took part of the SM beliefs?

Why I concluded she would have.

Sarah was educated and a member of the Freemasons and Rosicrucians throughout her life time and therefore already part of metaphysical and spiritual teachings, therefore would she have had an interest in SM beliefs and practices? 

After study of her life, her devotion to the Masons and Rosicrucians, I concur she would have taken interest in such a way, she did communicate with the spirits of loved ones certainly her daughter who died very young and her husband, years later. 

It is very natural after a loved one dies, transitions, leaves this planet, to want to keep in contact with their true self, their spirit. In that Sarah, a mystic herself and a grieving mother and wife would be like many others, desire to keep contact with her dead ones. 

How would she have done it?

Spirit communication can be a solo experience or one shared with two or more in what is thought of as a seance. Most likely Sarah would have a private, well chosen few  join her in a sacred time, a seance, to communicate with the dead and most likely that would have been through a medium.

A PSYCHIC KID: CHALLENGES & HOW TO SUPPORT

The Child With Clear Psychic Abilities

Do you have a psychic child? 

With my psychic abilities, I recognized my son's psychic impressions and experiences he began to have while a toddler. I listened without judgment, while educating him to use his abilities healthily for himself and others.

 Now, as a parent of three children, he supports them to feel comfortable with their psychic abilities.

My son was also a highly developed psychic child who actually received pertinent information about a murder case I was working with law enforcement on in the early 1980s. He was only 3 1/2 years old when he first received visions about this case, and it went on until he was about 5 years of age.  

He was willing to talk about what happened to the woman murdered. I did not feed him any information or encourage him to talk about it. I listened.

I offered the information to the police, but protected my son by saying it was my information, although I did record my son giving his impressions. Working with the police can be quite jarring for a psychic as they want "just the facts, ma'am," and often psychics take time developing the "facts".

What he received helped officers find an elderly witness whose testimony was videoed because of his age and illness, and later presented in court.

I also gave detailed information known only to the police and continued to work with law enforcement to secure an arrest. The perpetrator is, to date, in prison.

How parents can support their psychic child: Parents might not believe in the paranormal, maybe never having any experiences themselves, but how does a parent handle a child who talks about visions about things that happened before their birth, or that occur at a later date?

Listen, do not say, "Don't talk about that" or "You're only imagining it." Instead, if you know about the history, give credence to the child's visions and talk together about the people, the place, and the time.  If it's the future, say, "We'll see in time, won't we?"

Do not encourage frightening dreams or perhaps an entity your child is fearful of. Rather, give the child comfort and offer to create a safe space by having the child imagine sitting in a white bubble, safe from all that can harm her/him.

One time, a very nasty entity came to my house, and I dispelled it, only it went into my young son's room and caused havoc. What I did at 2 A.M. is "cleared the house" with special incense and demanded verbally, OUT! to the bothersome entities. 

The child that communicate with spirits.

An example was a grandson (not by blood, came through a marriage),  at four, who saw my sister in spirit. Her death wasn't discussed in front of him, so when he "saw" her in his psychic eye and then related a message, we were surprised.

One night, my son, his wife, and my bonus grandson were bidding each other goodnight when he appeared to be falling asleep while standing; his eyes fluttered, and his head fell forward. He then raised his head and said clearly, "Your sister is standing next to you. She's smiling and said not to cry for her."

I was grieving heavily, with most days spent in tears. I quietly thanked him for sharing the information. In that way, I validated his connection to my deceased sister while accepting her message.

His mother had no idea he was a psychic kid. Maybe because he was with me, someone who would understand, his ability was revealed. Since then, we've shared many a psychic experience, and I support his ability through teaching him how to contain, understand, and call upon it.

I share much, much more about these kinds of paranormal experiences in my book, "How To Talk With Spirits: Seances, Mediums, Ghost Hunts," and "The Timeless Counselor: The Best Guide to a Psychic Reading, available through me, Amazon, Smashwords, and your local bookstore.
