Our Lady of Toledo Shrine:

 

Our Lady of Toledo Shrine is a place of prayer, healing, and forgiveness located on 26 acres of gardens and grottoes with prayer spaces, a Rosary Walk, Stations of the Cross, and a healing water well. It is open to the public daily and located in the city of Toledo in the state of Ohio. It’s a fantastic place to visit even if you are not Catholic.

 

This shrine is special to me for a few reasons: One, I love Mother Mary and Two, information about the shrine was pushed to me via text message on my cell phone from an unknown sender. The message had no contact number or information. 

 

 The first time I received a text regarding the shrine I saw it pop up on my cell phone late at night, while sitting in bed. I first thought that someone must have sent it to me who knew that I loved visiting shrines, perhaps a friend, family member, or client.  But when I looked at the message, I saw the contact information space was blank or sometimes, even missing. This happened each time I received a text regarding the shrine in Toledo throughout the year of 2022.

 

I know what you are thinking! You must have signed up for text messages for the shrine, or someone else signed you up, or put you on a marketing list. But believe me, I checked with everyone and I also found out that the shrine does not have a marketing list, or text notifications.

 

I took this as a strong sign telling me, “You must go to this shrine!” However, I never seemed to have the time to go. I had kids and two businesses, but it mostly was due to a very bad person who was currently in my life.  A person with many mental illnesses who had inched her way into my life, acting as a friend but truly a sick, energy sucking vampire. I’m sure you know the kind! This awful person took up all my time, and on purpose.

 

However, what I find so interesting is that during the times when this person was the most evil, was when I began receiving the text messages about the Toledo Shrine.

 

It all began back in February of 2022. I had kicked this awful person out of my life several months prior and as soon as she was gone, I had instant successes within my family, finances, relationships, and my friends again. I feel she was draining so much that the angels had stopped sending clients and new job prospects because I was simply not able to handle it at the time. However, as soon as she was gone my whole life changed for the better. I was so busy again with my family, traveling, and doing a lot of events for my business; I was happy. This was when I received the 3^rd text message about the shrine in Toledo.

 

Then in December of 2022, my son had given me a cold that quickly turned into a terrible cough and pneumonia which lasted over Christmas and my children’s winter break. This was when I got the final, 4^th text message from the unknown number sending me a Google Map of the Our Lady of Toledo Shrine. This truly blew my mind! I remember thinking, Now I have to go. That it was a HUGE sign! Even though I was sick.

 

I really do think that Mother Mary and my angels pushed the Google Map of the shrine to me. I was really sick, but I got in my car anyway and drove 2 and half hours with my daughter to the Our Lady of Toledo Shrine.

 

          It was cold, and in the dead of winter, and I didn’t look at much information regarding the shrine, but planned on spending the day there even though I was sick

 

I pulled up and couldn’t believe how pretty it was! We got out of the car and walked up towards a huge statue of Mother Mary who was guarded by two Archangels’ I knew very well: Archangel Michael and Raphael. Coincidence, I think not!

 

I began speaking to Mother Mary and soon was surprised to find a puppy at my feet barking and trying to play. I petted the dog and was shocked to see it there since we seemed to be the only ones around. My daughter and I laughed as the dog ran and played with us in such a sweet demeanor. Soon we saw a man come out of the shrine building and walk up to us.

 

          He told us that he was the caretaker for the shrine and told us some information about the shrine, but most importantly he directed us to a well. He said that it was a healing water well and many visitors’ came from all over the world and traveled really far, just to fill up their bottles of its healing waters. I looked at my daughter and thought, This must be the reason Mother Mary and my angels sent me to this wonderful place.

 

          He then took us inside to show us the chapel and gave us both Rosary’s and we began to pray together, however our prayer was soon interrupted by my sudden cough that was made worse by being outdoors in the cold. The cool air triggered it and I couldn’t stop coughing.

 

My daughter got really worried and upset that I couldn’t stop coughing, so I turned away from them both in embarrassment and this is when I saw a bottle of water standing upright on a chair. I had not seen it before coughing, but quickly picked it up. I began to raise it in the air toward the caretaker, asking in a motion if I could have it.  

 

          “Yes, Yes!” he replied to me and told me drink it.

 

 Opening it fast, I began to drink it down and soon my cough stopped. My daughter and the man moved closer, asking me if I was okay and checking on me, which was so kind. But I couldn’t help wondering, “Where in the heck did that water bottle come from? I didn’t see it a minute ago in the chapel when we all were looking around before our prayer.

          My daughter must have thought the same thing because just then she looked at me oddly and then at the bottle. So I asked the caretaker, “Do you know if this was left here? I didn’t see it until I began coughing.”

 

          “He told me he hadn’t seen it before either, but he was glad it was there when I needed it.”

 

          My daughter began to tell the nice caretaker how sick I was and how I found out about the shrine to which the man said, “You sure were meant to come today and be healed. He knew She sent me. She sends so many to be healed.”

 

          Then he walked us both over to a stand with a book on it, and began showing us hundreds of letters from people who had been healed by the shrines water well or soon after praying to the Mother Mary’s statue outside.

 

          After that he walked us through the rest of the building and showed us an overflowing bookshelf overloaded with book donations. He said that I could have anything I wanted. I was shocked because I was thinking of several books I had wanted to get regarding certain saints, which I wanted to learn about.  However, I couldn’t afford them at the moment.

 

          The caretaker left to put his new puppy away as my daughter and I looked through the books. To my shock and surprise, I found every book I had wanted on my wish list! As we left with lots of books in hand, I gave the kind caretaker a big donation for all he done as he filled 4 large milk jugs up with the Mother Mary Healing Water from the well telling us the story of the healing waters as he placed them one by one, into my car.

 

          “The founder and nun who began this Shrine was Sally Steadman who was standing right here, he gestured near the well, when Mother Mary appeared to her and told her to dig right here for a well. Mary even told the nun how far down to dig, until she would hit water. Mary told Sally that people needed this water, that it was healing water, and how they would come from all over the world to drink this water and be healed.”

         

          The caretaker told me to drink the water he had given me for 5 days and I will be healed. He told us many stories of people who came from hours away due to health issues and how it had healed them. “I know you were sent here today to be healed.” He smiled, closed my trunk, and bid us both goodbye.

 

I drove home and drank the water, telling my friends and family the story of Mother Mary appearing to Sally and what Mary had told her. I also told them what the kind caretaker had said to me and as predicted from the caretaker, I was better with no extra medical care at all, in 5 days!

 

          Is it a coincidence that the Our Lady of Toledo Shrine was pushed to my cell phone? I think not, and I will tell you why. I believe I was pushed the information regarding the shrine via text message from Mother Mary because God wanted me to heal and learn. I believe I needed to get rid of the bad person in my life to be able to be fully present and healed. I also don’t think it was a coincidence that the full water bottle appeared behind me when I was coughing and interrupting our prayer with the caretaker. In addition, I found all the books I presently wanted, but could not afford, and the man told me to take them home. I think Mother Mary sent the books to me via the shrine because she knew I had good intentions for the books, knowing I would also share them with others.

 

AND YES, I was healed in 5 days! So No! I don’t think it was a coincidence, I think it was true miracle!

 The Haunted Ghost Car:

Skagit Highway (SR 11):

(Cole’s Story)

 

For years, I have been looking for a good haunted ghost car story for my blog when I mentioned it to my good friend, Cole and his family. Cole then began to tell me about a certain stretch of highway near him in Washington State where many car accidents happen each year and a ghostly Sedan seems to appear to spook modern day drivers. Cole and his son, John have both experienced this ghostly dated Sedan while driving their cars during separate occasions while driving along the old curvy road.

 

Here is the history of the spooky road and Cole’s paranormal encounter with the ghost car:

 There is a stretch of road in the northwest corner of Washington State, tucked against the south side of the Skagit Valley it is known to most as the South Skagit Highway or SR 11. It was originally a wagon trail but as auto travel became more of a fashion, it was graded in the early 1920s and became a scenic byway for people to get between Skagit and Whatcom Counties. The road features a lot of tight curves and blind corners but features some very beautiful and majestic views during every season.

 

There have always been stories of things happening on this stretch mostly due to its rich and harrowing history. In the late 1800s this was an area populated by a few Native American Tribes and when the local white man started grabbing the native children while they were fishing in the area of Pressentin Creek, putting them into Residential schools. There are still reports to this day that as you pass that area, you might catch a glimpse of a young child running through the brush trying to get away.

           

This road is also notoriously known for the amount of accidents that happen. At least 40 to 50 car accidents each year occur in the 26 mile blacktop. Some of which have led to the unfortunate but inevitable fatalities of people from all around the area. As usually happens, these fatalities leave a residual energy in their wake. This is evident in the long reported sightings of a ghost car.

 

In my case, when I had my particular run-in with the ghost car. It was about 12:30 AM during springtime about 3 years ago. I was driving westward toward Sedro Woolley listening to music as I often do to make the drive go faster. I was entering the curvier area just before Day Creek and as I entered the corner I could see a pair of headlights turn on behind me. The lights weirded me out a little because of the shape of them. They were large perfect circles and the way they sat on the vehicle I would say they belonged to a 1940s to 1950 sedan. As we weaved through the corners he kept up to me with only about 3 to 4 car lengths between us. The last corner was an outside corner and the lights seem to get brighter and he fell back as I rounded it. I noticed it didn't come around the corner and it was dark behind me.  This corner has no pull outs or pull offs and is only a single two lane area with no shoulders that leads into a straight-away. One side of the road is a mountain and the other side has a guardrail with a 9 foot drop into the Skagit River. There was literally nowhere for them to go. I slowed down and watched but there was no one there, no one around anywhere.

 

I later posted in my local community asking if anyone else had experienced anything like this and got a few replies and many saying that they have heard the same thing from others.

 

            After hearing Cole’s story, tell me? Would you like to drive on this haunted curvy road, full of history at night? And if you have, please let us know and leave a comment below this blog article.

Stop Denying Your God Given Gifts:

 

“The Night I   Met Archangel Raphael (St. Raphael)”

 

It was December 23, 2020 as I lay in bed sick with a severe cold I contracted from my younger son. I was completely alone in the house. My husband had taken our kids to visit his family far away for Christmas break while I healed, as to not get our other child sick. I was not doing well and it was hard to get a hold of my husband because he didn’t check his phone often and never had his ringer on. Unfortunately, each day I had gotten worse since he had left.

 

Sadly, last November marked nearly a year since I had almost died from organ failure. This caused me to have an extremely low immune system, which was why I had gotten so sick due to that near death experience. The doctors had told me that they were all stunned that I lived because anyone else would have surely died. Sadly, my immune system would take three years to recover, if it did repair itself.

 

So due to that past organ failure, I was not doing well. In fact, I knew I was dying. I only got out of my bed to go to the bathroom or care for our pets downstairs, which took all the energy I had. I feared getting out of bed because I began fainting and blacking out. I had fallen to the ground several times only to wake up hours later. Once, I had nearly missed hitting a wall by less than an inch.

 

That afternoon on December 23^rd, I called my husband to tell him I was not doing well and was getting worse each day. It felt like I could hardly breath and I was truly terrified. When I hung up, I tried to rest in bed while praying to God and asking Him for his help and intervention. I told God I knew I was dying and I felt like I was not going to make it to Christmas. I feared dying alone with no one to find me but my family when they came home.

 

I began to fall asleep and began to see the color green. I woke up and lifted my head from my pillow, suddenly feeling I was not alone. I could feel someone in my bedroom but didn’t see anyone when I looked around me room; just felt not alone. Thinking I was sick and it was probably due to that, I laid my head back down and closed my eyes again.

 

I was drifting off to sleep when I saw an image of a book cover vividly appear in my mind. The book was called, Archangels and Ascended Masters: A Guide to Working and Healing With Divinities and Deities by Doreen Virtue (whom I hadn’t known at the time. It appeared in my mind so vividly, but I knew I was not dreaming because I was not asleep yet. In fact, I was so sick, I could hardly sleep. I just seemed to stay in a restless state in between sleep and awake.

 

Soon I saw an image of a prayer within the book as I heard a male voice speak to me saying: “Pray to the Healing Archangel. Say the Prayer to the healing angel and you will be healed.”

 

Swiftly, I sat up in bed and reached for my cell phone laying on my nightstand beside my bed and began to look up the book on Amazon. I didn’t recognize the male voice that spoken to me but felt that God was telling me to pray to this angel to receive help, so I was determined to find this book and prayer.

 

Within minutes I found the book on Amazon and I found the prayer I had seen while resting, inside the book. Thanks to Amazon, I clicked on their wonderful “Look Inside Book” feature which showed me an illustration of the Healing Angel and prayer that was shown to me as I heard the male voice speak.

 

The angel was called, Archangel Raphael: Healing Angel of: Mind, Body, Sprit, and Travel, just like I had seen while trying to sleep.

 

          I took a quick screenshot of the prayer inside the book and ordered the book, which said it would come in two days. I figured that was not soon enough, I had to say the prayer today. I had to say the prayer right now! So I looked up the prayer on Google and the prayer came right up. I jumped right out of bed in my nightgown and got on my knees in prayer position, as I had done all of my life as a Catholic, and read the prayer from my cell phone.

         

          Within seconds I could feel someone behind me as I prayed. I turned around but did not see anyone. However, I could feel the presence of a male in between my two bedroom windows along my wall. Turning myself back around again to continue the prayer, I again put my head down and went on. As I finished the prayer I heard the male voice speak again.

 

          “I have been waiting your whole life for you to say that prayer. Spoke the male voice. From now on, I will guide you and NEVER leave your side.”

 

          Immediately I began to cry and thanked God and the healing angel for listening to my plea. “I have kids, I have to be well. I can’t die. I know my family needs me and can’t live without me. I have to live. Please, God and Archangel Raphael, please heal me.” I begged on my knees sobbing over my bed, so much that I crumbled to the floor now, coughing and crying. Then coughing and crying again, some more.

 

          “Turn around.” I heard the Angel say. “I am right behind you. Turn around and face me.”

 

          Stunned at what I had just heard, but obeying fast, I lifted myself up to see a man standing where I had felt a presence earlier while starting to pray. I knew this was Archangel Raphael. He was a thin, tall man, with a medium sized beard, a lot like Jesus is depicted in drawings. He wore a long spring green and white robe lined with a fine golden stitched pattern that barley hit the floor. Almost, like a modern day priest during Mass. I could just make out his thin tan sandals upon his feet, slightly hidden by his garb. The angel held a long golden staff with a golden round top upon it in his left hand. He generously smiled down at me with love in his warm light brown eyes as he said: “You will be healed in 6 days.”  

 

As I continued to sob uncontrollably from his presence and words, he smiled again and saying, “You need to stop denying your gift to help others. You are meant to help others. You are a ‘Messenger of God’ and you are meant to serve the Lord and heal people through your words and actions provided from heaven. This is your ‘Mission from God.’ It was chosen before you were born. You must stop pushing away and serve.”

 

          I knew what Raphael was speaking of and he was right! I had always known that I was different since I was a child. When I was nine I moved into a haunted home with my mother and three siblings after my parents divorced and had many experiences and saw things. I even wrote a book about my experiences, The Haunting at 2095 regarding Julia, a spirit who haunted our home. Julia wanted me to write the book to raise awareness about mental illness, suicide, and marriage neglect. I saw her and heard her, as I wrote what she wanted. In addition to helping me heal from what I had experienced in the home, by having me write about my own struggles from a child to adulthood, I believe that God sent Julia my way to teach me so that I could teach others.

 

I have honesty had paranormal experiences since the age of four. However, when I tried to talk to my family about it or others, they would tell me, “Stop, that these are workings of the devil,” or even tell me to shut up. I often was treated like I was crazy or called names.

 

I was also afraid of things I would know before they would happen. I often had visions before something bad happened to friends, relatives, and even strangers I had never met. I saw visions of accidents and murders. It was not easy and I was afraid to understand why I saw these things. I saw it as a burden. I did not know how I could possibly help or prevent these things so I feared my gift and pushed it away most of my life or denied it. If a spirit or loved one tried to talk to me and I could hear or see them, I would just close my eyes and sing or pretend they weren’t there. It made a lot of spirits upset with me over the years, but I didn’t know what else to do and feared being treated badly.

 

I could see in the Archangels’ eyes that he felt my thoughts and knew my pain. I can’t explain how or why, but I knew it by looking at him. Raphael looked down upon me with pity in his heart and eyes as he said: “It will not be easy but you can do this for God. You will find your way in time. You are meant to help people through your words, the words of God.”  Just as he finished speaking I saw my uncle who had died (*Note to Reader: I had sadly known he would die young and I was very close to this Uncle*) appear beside Raphael’s left side. My uncle smiled at me and sat next to Raphael on his knees on the floor. My uncle had also been a Catholic and was showing respect for the Archangel, like he would have in life. He nodded his head toward me as if demonstrating to me that he also agreed with the kind angel here to help me and to listen to his words.

 

I must listen!

 

Taken back, I fell to the floor and cried again, this time it felt like many minutes as they both waited patiently for me to understand, express my emotions, and take it in. When I stopped crying I looked at Raphael and my uncle again and soon saw my Grandfather, my Dad’s Father, appear next to my uncle to the left.

 

 I cried out to my grandfather in delight and sadness at seeing him and missing him so much. My uncle and grandfather were the two men in my life that had passed on that had meant so much to me as a child into my adulthood. My grandfather was like a father to me; ONLY GOD COULD KNOW THAT!

 

My grandfather smiled lovingly at me and nodded just as my uncle had and never did speak. However, I understood his presence to mean that I must hear Raphael’s words from heaven and do as he asked. I knew this was the work of God and a miracle.

 

I began asking Archangel Raphael many questions about my life and why I had been chosen. “There has to be someone better and smarter than myself.” I told him.

 

He explained to me that I had been building up for this my whole life and he would send people to me that I could help due to my own past traumatic and toxic experiences. “You will know what to say and how to say it, in order to help them,” he informed me to comfort my fears. They need you. “You will save them from themselves. You are the only one who can help them. They will know and understand this.”

 

Then Raphael told me that God was happy and proud that I had used my gifts to help Julia, (the woman who I wrote my novel about, The Haunting At 2095). He said, “I had stepped up, not only to aid her but to also prevent others from harm.” I listened intently; however I was very overwhelmed and emotional.

 

As I listened I observed the expressions on the two faces of my passed on loved ones, my uncle and grandfather, as they both kneeled silently next to Archangel Raphael. I could feel their love for me and I knew they deeply cared for me and my path behind me and ahead. I could tell they knew what I was feeling, as I tried to wrap my mind around what was happening. Soon I saw their expressions change and Archangel Raphael take a small step to the left pushing my relatives slightly too, as if making room for someone.

 

Suddenly a blinding white flash of light appeared to the right of Archangel Raphael causing my uncle and grandfather to quickly move behind Raphael. They both began to bow their heads and held up their hands in prayer position.

 

I struggled to look up and see through the blinding white light. It was the brightest light I had ever seen. It was radiant and bright and I felt like it was full of mercy and love. I then saw Archangel Raphael motion to the right, announcing to me a new presence. He didn’t need to speak. I could feel who it was. It was GOD himself.

 

I almost fainted. I felt it in my body and my soul that this was in fact, GOD! I tried to take it in for a moment, that I was in the actual presence of God and He…God was in my bedroom, as I continued to kneel on my bedroom carpet crying. Feeling so helpless and a bit embarrassed of all my overwhelming senses firing off at once causing a state of many raw emotions at a time; I couldn’t speak. I kept wiping away tears from my eyes and bowing down to God as He stood in my bedroom beside Raphael in silence. Everyone was staring down at me like a child.

 

God was very tall. He was actually so tall that he nearly touched my high ceiling in my room. He had on a long white flowing gown with a golden belt around his waist that glistened, with white strappy sandals. You could see a hue of blue, yellow, and flecks of gold and white light radiating from his body.

 

I could not make out any facial features because His face was completely illuminated in a powerful white light. However, I did see a flowing white beard and soon heard a booming dominant male voice erupt from the bright white glow. The voice was so loud it almost echoed as He spoke.

 

“Do as Archangel Raphael says, and you shall heal in 6 days. You are meant to help others as Raphael has said. This is the ‘Mission’ I have given you. Do as you are told. Raphael will guide you through your life and will always be there for you. Remember, ask and you shall understand and receive. Do this in the name of God.” God said standing tall in front of me near my bedroom window.

 

“Yes, My Father, “I replied. “I will. I am just confused at to why you picked me? I am not the smartest person. Surely, there has to be another smarter, better, and more capable then I.” I spoke. “I feel like I will let you down, Sir,” I replied feeling rather low. This was a HUGE TASK! What if I let God down? I couldn’t live with myself. I thought.

 

I could feel that God was displeased with my reply. He shifted his weight from one side to the other uneasily, took in a deep breath and replied: “My dear, No. You are the one to do this job and mission. There IS NO ONE ELSE. In time, you will learn. Let this loving angel guide you and know we are all here for you. Just call us and we will be by your side.”

 

I then asked many personal questions about my life, about the world, and society, and how I was to learn what God wanted me to learn. God explained a lot to me and soon God stated that it was time for them to go.

 

I thanked God and told Him I would do my best in what He has entrusted me to do. I said I was not sure of how to do that yet but I would listen to Archangel Raphael, do what I was told, and look and wait for signs. I knew that Raphael and God had purposely brought my two relatives from heaven that I missed so dearly for me to listen and take my mission seriously. They were a sign from God. I would comply with God’s Will and listen.

 

They all bid me goodbye. My uncle and grandfather both nodded to me a goodbye as Raphael said, “I am always near, even if you can’t see me, you will hear me and feel me. Rest well now,” the radiant archangel spoke. Then I saw a flash of white light that was so bright I had to shield my eyes by holding my forearm over my face.

 

When I put my arm down, I was alone in my bedroom covered in my tears. I had cried so much this whole time that my nightgown was soaking wet. I looked over at my clock and I saw that three hours had gone by and it was now dark outside.

 

Overwhelmed and in shock from my experienced I laid down on my bedroom floor right then, feeling so much peace, and so thankful; that I  immediately fell into a deep sleep.

 

          Six days later; just as many days as it took for God to create the earth, I felt better; just as God and the Healing Angel had promised.  On the ninth day, I was completely healed. I never had a fever during this sickness and never went to the doctor. I was able to have a good Christmas and New Years with my family and friends, like I had never even been sick!

 

Since that December 23^rd in 2020, I celebrate each year the day I met Archangel Raphael, the Healing Angel who shown the book cover and prayer to me when I was so ill and at death’s door. So much has changed now. That day I began to open up and accept my mission.

 

Raphael guides me each day, just as he said he would. He sends me people I can help, just as he told me he would, and he gives me messages from Heaven for me, my loved ones, and clients. God allows Raphael to guide me so I can then guide my clients to be as happy as they possibly can.

 

If we need something, God knows it. Raphael aids me in providing that message to my clients so that they can have a better life. God wants them to have closure, peace, comfort, and assurance that their loved ones are well and in heaven.  Most importantly, God wants my clients to know that their loved ones are watching over them from heaven, with love, protection, and support.  

 

          Raphael has seen me through many sicknesses and trials since that day in December and he has “NEVER LEFT MY SIDE.”  We have a wonderful relationship, and he truly is like a brother to me.  He loves jokes and has a wonderful sense of humor.   He is my angel, my guide, and my best friend. All though my life has not been easy since taking on God’s Mission, which is full of trials, losses, lack of energy, and many sicknesses, it has all been worth it.

 

Thank you Archangel Raphael from the bottom of my heart for all that you have helped me with and all that I have learned and endured. It has made me the strong woman I am today and I wouldn’t change a thing or have it any other way.

Angels Among Us:

Julie’s Story

         

In last month’s blog article I wrote a short story about Diana who experienced several signs of protection and care from the other side after I had a long reading with her.

However today, I will tell you about her best friend, Julie who happened to come with Diana to meet me and also received a reading.

Both women’s readings regarded a lot of major transition that was currently happening in both of their lives at the present moment. The other side told both ladies that they were supporting them during these hard times of life change and transition and they were all proud of the hard work they both were doing. In addition, their angels and loved ones told them to keep moving forward and embrace these changes. They would make them both happy.

Then their angels told them just before they left me, that they would both experience a lot of angel activity and signs from the other side, letting the woman know that they are caring and watching over them. The angels told me this would happen over the course of the next three weeks. Their angels also said for them to ask for help from their Angels when they needed it, and to continue to surrender up their fears, and worries; to God and HE would provide.

The following Sunday the two friends were heading back home from church and had stopped on the way home at McDonalds for teas. While paying for their drinks in the drive threw, Julie looked up in the sky and saw an odd cloud formation. She pointed it out to Diana who was with her and took a picture.

Julie called me later and told me that she believed it to be an angel in the sky. She described it to me as so: “It looked like an angel lying face down.” She took it as a sign of protection that day, especially since Diana has had so many signs from her angels, just like I had expressed to them both during their readings the week before.

The two women got their drinks and were pulling out of the parking lot of McDonalds when Julie told Diana directions to head home but Diana got turned around turned onto the wrong street by mistake.

A few minutes later, the Julie and Diana arrived back at Diana’s apartment and Julie got into her car to head home. Soon she pulled out to the street where the two friends should have turned down, if Diana hadn’t missed the turn, and saw up ahead on the street a HUGE car accident.

Julie stopped in her car and wondered, If Diana had followed Julie’s directions correctly, Julie and Diana might have been in that awful car accident ahead.

Julie believes that the angel she saw in the sky while they sat in the drive threw was a TRUE SIGN of protection from their Angels keeping Diana and herself, from turning down the road that now contained the horrible car accident ahead.

A few days later Julie witnessed another angel in the sky sighting and sign.

Julie says she normally does not drive far alone but this day she happened to be driving to a cousin’s house by herself for a visit when she saw a bright light in the sky catch her attention so took a closer look and stopped her car. She then took a picture of it thinking it looked like another angel. “It was another sign of protection,” she explained to me. “I know I am doing what God wants and they are showing me.”

Julie and Diana have both had a lot of signs in the sky from their Angels demonstrating they are truly protected and aiding them from harm since their readings with me just a week prior. And just today Julie sent me this photo of a beam of light coming down towards Julie’s home after she stayed up all night working hard on writing a book about her childhood to heal and also help others who have struggled with their childhood and adulthood, due to trauma and pain. Julie believes this is God telling her that she is on the right path in her life and to keep up the hard work.

 Now, I ask you? Do you believe in Angels?

Angels Among Us:

Diana’s Story

Recently I met two wonderful female clients, Diana and Julie in April of 2025, at an event in Dayton, Ohio and gave them both readings. During their readings I gave them special messages from the other side and from their angels in heaven. Since meeting me, Diana and Julie have both experienced many signs from their angels showing them they are guiding and protecting them each day, through their tough trials in their lives. 

Today I will be writing about Diana’s experiences and what she has learned from them but stay tuned for next month’s blog article regarding Julie’s experiences since meeting me as well and what she has learned from the other side.

 During Diana’s reading I saw a vision of her dog getting hurt by another dog from her apartment complex. I told her to move right away and that things would only continue to get worse if not and she needed to work on her health, a shoulder injury, as well as job change.

Sadly, I was not told a time frame of when the dog would be attacked, which sometimes happens because we are not meant to know at that given time by the other side. Unfortunately, later that night everything I experienced and saw in my vision regarding her poor pup came true. Lucky, her dog, who should have been severally hurt, was not and was saved by Diana’s angels who were protecting her and her little pooch that evening.

Diana told me about the incident and then sent me a video of the dog attack and in the video you can see her angels protecting her precious little dog! In the video you see Diana opening her front door to let out her dog and suddenly a big Doberman dog charges from the side of the camera towards her poor pup to attack. However during the attack which is quick, you see angels swirling around and in between the dogs clearly in action to protect her precious pet. It was a true miracle that her dog was not even hurt!

The second time Diana had an angel interaction was two nights ago when she was in severe pain from her shoulder issue. Now when I met her and gave her a reading late April; I told her that I could feel that her shoulder was hurt. I felt it and saw it (cell wise) through my mind’s eye. It is hard to explain to people but it’s a gift I have. I can do body scans in which I feel and see disease, sickness, and pain. I warned Diana to go to the doctor regarding her shoulder and this pain right away and to not delay. She went home and the next day she made an appointment with her doctor.

However two nights ago at 2am, Diana was in so much pain from her shoulder she was in tears and couldn’t sleep. She walked out of her bedroom to her living room to sit in her recliner and this happened:

 “I could not fall asleep so I walked out to my family room area to sit in my recliner and turned on my angel music on Alexia. I meditated and I prayed for the world and specific individuals. I also prayed for myself saying ‘the pain is too much!’ I prayed for relief and asked for Gods help.”

 Hours later Diana experienced sudden pain release and tried to sleep again thanking God and His angels for their divine intervention When:

 “After my prayer meditation, I heard a tap which I could only describe sounded like a xylophone. It was a small sound but I know I heard it. Then as I lay back again after looking round a bit to determine what the sound could have been, I looked up at my ceiling and saw what looked to me like an Angel. I could see a profile of the angel and I could see the back wings of the angel. I took two pictures, one with a flash and one without. Here are my two pictures. This is totally amazing to me!”

 (Diana’s two pictures below):

Diana called me the next day to tell me this story and to thank me for reminding her to ask God and her angels for help when needed it as well as surrender up her pain.

 Diana talked to me about the life changes she has made that the other side told her to do how much has changed since she had followed their specific instructions. Her life is so much better and she is happy and seeing daily signs from her loved ones and angels around her. “So much good has come in just a week and a half,” she explained. Diana also thanked me for telling her to seek out a doctor regarding her shoulder issue, and now she knows she it will heal and get better

Additionally, Diana has seen an angel and orbs over her bed at night in her bedroom on her ceiling. She has also seen an angel outside her front door during a horrible rain storm when she prayed for safety and protection. “I saw it with my own eyes during the rain storm,” Diana explained to me over the phone. She said she her friend, Julie who took a picture and caught it on film.

So what can we learn from Diana’s incredible experiences? I believe Diana experienced these miracles to prove to her and those she shares them with, that We ARE NEVER ALONE in our trails of life. That we always have angelic protection all around us and we just need to “ask and we shall receive.” So PAY ATTENTION  to the signs from your angels, because….as you can see from Diana’s incredible experiences, they are there!
