By D. M. Atwood

To be honest, I thought she was done for. As in no hope. Lights out.

The person I’m speaking of is my mom. Quite recently, I had gone to visit her and let me tell you, she didn’t look well. Equally concerning was her mind. She couldn’t follow a normal conversation. Not surprisingly, we agreed to focus specifically on her issues and I made a point to speak in slow, simple sentences.

What my mom didn’t know is that prior to my visit, I had seen two luminous spheres in the Arizona night sky. I noticed them hovering above a shopping center but quickly dismissed them as stars—that is, until I observed one sphere move easterly and the other to the west. They then joined and set off due north together. By now, I had no doubt this was not the Christmas star (Jupiter-Saturn Conjunction) that had been all over the news. Furthermore, to be perfectly honest, even though I’ve had several sightings and interactions with these spheres over the last few years, my mouth hung open as I watched them traverse across the desert sky.  

Days passed. Prior to my next visit with my mom, I did what I often do several times a day: I prayed. That’s right. I’m a writer of paranormal and science fiction, but I’m also a deeply spiritual person. As such, I do believe in a Higher Power, one that I refer to as God. While I always, always, always strive to work with this Higher Power, based on my own experiences I also believe in the existence of angels, demons, extraterrestrials and interdimensionals. Thankfully, I found out in massage school that I’m sensitive to subtle energy. I learned that this explains why I’m able to perceive those in other realms. (On a positive note, now that we are entering a new age, I suspect in time that many others will also be able to sense these different dimensional entities and their energies.)   

Finally, I packed up my car. As I once again drove to my mom’s, I noticed that my heart didn’t feel as heavy as I thought it would. Considering how badly she’d been doing, my emotions related to this visit surprised me. Then I saw her. Right away I knew something had changed. There was a sparkle in her eye. When she spoke, I could tell that her mind was clear. Best of all, her bubbly personality had returned.

As wonderful as this is, I suspect it wouldn’t have occurred if I hadn’t asked for help from above. You see, my mom had stopped taking a prescription that had given her several side effects. She swore that it also negatively impacted her memory. The problem is that even after she had been off the medicine for weeks, her mind continued to deteriorate. In fact, I had posted about this on social media. I was convinced she had Alzheimer’s/Dementia. I even went so far as to discuss the importance of eating a healthy diet, which in turn promotes brain health.

Of course I still believe in eating healthy, exercising and doing whatever we can to reduce our stress levels. But I also believe that my family experienced a Christmas miracle this year, possibly at the hands of the beautiful luminous spheres that I keep seeing (when I least expect it!). Let me be clear, I’m the first to admit that they work in mysterious ways and that I did go through some bizarre and frightening incidents with them early on. Even so, I can attest that they are highly effective at reaching people and helping them. Simply stated, I’m convinced these orbs are not to be feared. Rather, they’re to be cherished and respected. After all, they may very well be here as part of an extraterrestrial intervention, one that's designed to help Earth Humans ascend to a better way of thinking and living.  

What about you? Have you ever encountered a large luminous sphere? What happened? I’d love to hear from you!

Happy New Year, Everyone!  : )

Once upon a time, unbeknownst to two people, they were lovers 3, 500 years ago. Now, in the 21st century, they meet again, but after nearly an hour of conversing, only one of them recognizes what might really be happening…

Such is the pattern of the Twin Soul or Twin Flame relationship. It is literally a love that never wavers, never diminishes with time and space. And while it’s true that the unaware person feels drawn toward their twin, they actually have no idea what is taking place.

The two talk. On the surface they seem to come from different worlds. There are divisions in age, religion and socioeconomic status, but despite this, there are often there are a number of uncanny “coincidences” as well. Theirs has been a life of synchronous dances. Much to their surprise, they both feel trapped in unhealthy relationships. Additionally, they have moved in circles very near, and at times, overlapping one another.  During the course of their conversation, something is said that causes the unaware person to experience a deeply-held pain that they have been denying for a long, while. That’s when the unaware twin shuts down and takes on the role of the “runner”.

At some point, the twins are forced apart to deal with each of their dysfunctional relationships and other commitments. Eventually, they reunite. The fully awake twin has hungered for the recognition of their beloved for months or even years. The runner has been deeply moved by their encounters, but hasn’t been quite sure what to make of it all. Through each subsequent meeting, the runner’s behavior has taken on an oxymoron-esque quality, moving from icy to hot in a matter of minutes or even seconds. Predictably, this is due to a deep-seated pain, often caused by a lifetime of hurtful relationships. They have endured abandonment in a variety of forms. Everything they have experienced up until now has taught them to be wary of, and even run away from, love.

Indeed, time has slowly passed since their initial “chance” encounter. The thing is, in spite of their inconvenient circumstances, they sense a magical alchemy in the air. Whenever the other is near, chemistry surrounds them and they find themselves touched by the light of life inside Jupiter’s moon and an ancient love they once shared. Now a fire is ignited within. To their amazement, the energetic connection between them is strong enough to allow each to feel the other’s emotions. It has even been suggested that the duo may have the ability to communicate telepathically. This may partially explain why some have reported the enhanced abilities of clairaudience and other psychic gifts.

Eventually, the runner figures out what’s really going on. But to their disappointment, both are facing enormous hurdles in their lives. How does one of them bring up the idea of a twin flame relationship without looking foolish? What if all of this is in their imagination? And even if both lovers are on the same page, how will they resolve all of the complexities such as jobs and family commitments which would easily keep most people apart?   

As it turns out, the purpose behind these relationships is almost always to learn about unconditional love—how to give and receive it. For the twins, theirs is a love that began long ago and far away. Through the grace of destiny, their deep connection has stood the test of time. Now each yearns to be with the other.

Even so, there is no rushing this. Frustration sets in. However, with patience and perseverance, the twins can reunite and remain together until death once again separates them. But if it is destiny’s desire, there could very well be another Once Upon a Time…
