Aliens Walk Amongst Us

December 15, 2021 Tanya

There is one thing having my very own profound spiritual experiences to write about, but when I get the chance to listen to other stories, well that really excites me. Because it validates and strengthens my resolve that there is more to this 3D reality than meets our eyes.

Recently, a lovely friend and member of my psychic circle shared the most fascinating of past encounters.

I want to put a caveat in here before I tell her story, in that the lady who told me this is one that I trust inexplicably. She is a gifted medium yet solidly has her feet on the ground, there isn’t anything airy fairy about her, she says it how it is, and she questions everything. I feel it’s important that I tell you that, because this next story is so unreal but equally fascinating!

The reason why she shared her story is because it was the end of our meditation class and she noted that she struggles with meditation and to truly switch off. We asked why and she said she believes it might be from a weird experience she had once at a trance mediumship event. Trance allows an experienced medium to enter a very deep state of meditation so that a spirit can literally “take over” the medium and channel information directly through them. Often, the medium may change their mannerisms, accent, even start to look different as the messages are conveyed. I will now paraphrase my friend’s story, just as she told us;

“So, there I was at this trance mediumship circle. I had never done trance before; this was a totally new experience for me. I sat with the others as the medium who would be going into trance sat in the centre of our circle and she had another medium sitting directly next to her, holding her hand. Apparently, this is to keep the trance medium grounded throughout the session as the energy used can be very draining and could be detrimental to her health.

Once she went into her trance, she began to talk, and she did sound different. I found this fascinating, until she announced that she was an alien from another Universe. I must admit, I was smiling inside and looked away. Now, I’m a Medium and obviously I believe in spirits and life after death…but ETs? I’m not so sure. So, whilst this is going on, inside I’m questioning everything.

Suddenly, the medium stopped talking then addressed the circle directly and said “There is someone in this circle who does not believe me”.

The hairs went up on the back of my neck, I felt a little self-conscious. I was showing no outward sign that I did not believe her, I was just sitting as was everyone else was in the circle.

The trance medium then proceeded to point her finger at each member of the group, saying, “not you, not you, not you” and as she came to me, stopped and stared me in the eye and said “it’s you, you do not believe”.

I must admit at this point I was horrified, plus felt a little flustered with all eyes on me. The medium sitting with her, asked me to stand up and approach them in the centre.

I willingly did what she asked, not sure what was about to happen.

The medium took my hand and told me to “Feel this”. I wasn’t sure what she meant until I felt what can only be described as a charge of electricity go up from the soles of my feet and travel so fast all the way up my body and out of the top of my head. I was astounded by this physical sensation and not only that, I saw a clear vision in my mind’s eye. As the medium gripped my hand, I watched aliens that live and walk amongst us here on Earth. It was abundantly clear to me at that point, we are not alone, there are Aliens amongst us, and we have absolutely no idea.

Once she let go of my hand, she asked me if I believe now? I nodded my head and walked back to my space in the circle. For the rest of the evening, I couldn’t wait to leave and process what had just happened.

As I travelled home, I played the whole thing repeatedly in my mind. It was utterly unreal, yet it happened to me.

That night in bed, I finally fell into a deep sleep. I was rudely awoken a few hours later, by a solid hand tugging on my right ankle which yanked me across the bed toward the end. In my horror, I gripped on to my duvet, looked up and right into the face of an alien. I know this part is hard to believe, but it happened! I screamed for my life which awoke my husband, seeing me half off the bed, asked me what the hell was going on.

I told him that something had grabbed me and was pulling me off the bed, to which he told me not to be silly and go back to sleep. I must have been dreaming, he protested. But I wasn’t. I saw an alien with my own eyes, and it physically pulled me along my bed.

The next morning, I was so traumatised by the whole thing, I went to church. I felt like I needed to cleanse myself. Thankfully, nothing ever happened like that again, but it was certainly one of the profoundest moments I have ever had. I think that is why I can’t meditate, do you?”

She asked the group, as we all burst into laughter. As she told her story, you could have heard a pin drop and after we had stopped laughing, we said, joking aside, that it was amazing and a validation that there is so much more that we haven’t even scratched the surface of yet.

So, you see, I had to share her story, it was too incredible not too! Aliens, who live, and walk amongst us……

Until next time,

Are All Tarot Readers Psychic?

November 10, 2021 Tanya

Over recent months I have noticed the same question being asked on beginner’s tarot forums, along the lines of “do you have to be psychic to read tarot?”.

The quick answer to this, in my opinion is no, however, it seems that one thing can often lead to another when you reach a certain level of advanced tarot reading. I also feel that most people are psychic but with differing degrees of ability, like being able to draw or sing in tune.

Here is the thing, there are many sceptics out there that have no idea how accurate tarot reading is. It is spookily accurate. And much to their protests, the story being told is not made to fit the querants current life situation. Let me give you an example.

New clients are often complete strangers when then walk through my door. They have text me to book in and all I have is their first name. Not that I would do anything with a name, but in the age of social media and Facebook business pages, you cannot help most of the time to see a profile photo of the person coming to see you. This photo may give a snapshot into someone’s life and personally I don’t like this, I love just a name and a person.

A stranger who sits in my room has her tarot spread laid out in front of her. I don’t have to be a psychic to find out if she is single, divorced or in a long-term partnership, my trusty cards will do that for me. So, for example, I will turn over three cards and ask;

What is her current energy?; Death Card

How does she feel?; Ten of Swords

What influenced this?; The Tower Card

Because I have learnt the basic meanings of those three cards, I know that something has ended with no going back and it was a complete shock for her. If I wanted to dig a little deeper, I could ask the cards about her ex-partner and more than likely a King will be pulled from the shuffled deck. Depending on what suit he falls under (sword, cup, pentacle or wand) I can then go on to describe his personality in detail, and she agrees and nods her head enthusiastically and will say something like, “Yes! That’s spot on, how do you know that?”.

Up until this point, I have not needed to tune in psychically, the cards have given me exactly what I need to know. On occasion, it can be harder to decipher the information being presented but after many years of practice, it becomes a language of symbols, numbers, images, and colours that provide all you need to know as a reader.

So, your basic understanding of the cards can take you quite far, in fact, is all you need to know really to give a rewarding and beneficial tarot reading. But what if you wanted to know the details of the breakup? You can see it’s over; it was mega stressful and a shock…but what if you wanted to know the ins and outs of what happened?

This is where your psychic ability kicks in. When you join those three cards together and relax your mind, you connect the cards and allow a story to unfold. Suddenly you may be drawn to an image on the card you have never seen before. It is a suitcase next to a doorway. You tell your sitter that he up and left, no warning. Then you see that the card is number 13 and say it was approximately 12 to 13 months ago. Then you see two people pushing a boat along and tell her you can see two children, both boys. You might notice a dog in the grass, and he is half covered in the picture and tell her that she and the ex are sharing the dog as a 50/50 split. Your sitter says yes to this all and is astonished how you have managed to piece this all together with your cards. This is where your intuition kicks in and used your cards as a gateway to access the psychic information. You have literally just read the energy of her life.

This not only works with tarot cards. I recently connected to the spirit of my client’s father, who was in his late twenties when he died when she was just a little girl. As I sat in my reading room and asked the man to show me how he died, I suddenly heard a huge firework go off outside in the street which made me jump in my seat.

“He died very suddenly, it was like a firework going off in his head, he just dropped dead?” I asked, she nodded her head “Yes! He just died out of the blue, no warning, just bang and he was gone”………

This is how messages are given to mediums and psychics, it is just a case of reading the silent language and mostly, trusting the information you receive.

Tarot is a fantastic framework to connect to the energy of pretty much anything – it is a toolbox that your sprit guide will use to convey the messages that need to be said. Once you begin to trust your intuitive side, the cards come to life, you then see a story that is behind the imagery on the cards, it comes forward and takes on a life of its own….and that is when the magic happens.

Until next time,

The Power Of Therapists

March 9, 2020 Tanya

No matter what their specialty is, whether they are healers, massage therapists, psychics or aromatherapists, acupuncturists, the list goes on, I am always so amazed and inspired by the natural healing abilities all of these different modalities.

Last Friday I had a treat day, I had three self-care type experiences booked in for myself, my regular facial, reiki treatment and reading with a psychic. What I found was on that day, not only did I feel fantastic at the end of it, but I got something from each and every one of those therapists.

For example, during my facial with my lovely therapist, she did a beautiful neck and shoulder massage. Her hands are particularly hot, there are no surprises that she is a Reiki practitioner also. After she spent quite a bit of time massaging between my shoulder blades, she asked me if I have pain between my shoulders, on one particular side, as she could feel a heat spot there. Sure enough, I have a weak area on that very spot that can cause me immense pain if it gets triggered. My therapist’s healing hands are able to detect heat spots on the client’s bodies, she has done this with others, she can feel the exact area that needs healing.

After this appointment I then went to see a lovely friend and neighbour who I do regular therapy swaps with, it was my turn and I had chosen Reiki. During the amazing session, at the very end, after feeling deeply relaxed I started to see a vision. A vision is something that is played out in your mind however, it’s not coming from you. As I looked into the darkness of my own eyes, suddenly it became sepia and I started to watch what can only be described as a movie scene. First of all, I saw two Chinese people with masks on which made me think of the Coronavirus outbreak. Then I was shown different hands, lots and lots and lots of different pairs of hands, all healing, all helping the world to heal. It is like I was being given a message about how profound and very important healing is, on a natural level as well as a medicinal one. To back this up, my lovely therapist told me that she saw, in her mind’s eye, a vision of lots of people joined together by their hands….healing. We were certainly both being shown a message here.

Then, in the evening, I had a psychic reading with a lovely lady I had never met before. After an incredible 40 minutes or so, where she practically told me everything that I have been thinking, feeling and planning with my business, the most profound bit came.

In January I had a vivid dream that I was sitting in a circle of people, and one person, a young black man, really stood out. He was wearing old type robes and looking right at me, repeating the word: “Malachi…….Malachi……..Malachi”, I even woke up saying the word. So, I instantly googled it and Malachi is from Biblical times, translating into “Spirit Messenger”. I took this as a nice sign that I am on the right path, particularly with my mediumship.

However, fast forward to my reading with the lovely psychic, at the end of the reedling I could see her struggling with a word and then it flew out of her mouth “They are saying, Malachi. Mean anything to you?”. The hairs on the back of my arms went up. I told her about my dream. The psychic said that not only does she feel that the young black chap was actually a new guide (I had a feeling of this too recently), but this word has something to do also with Reiki. She told me about a Reiki course, which sounds very much like Malachi and they want me to go on it, she even recommended a Reiki Master for me, which turns out, is my Reiki master! So, after our session, I contacted my Reiki Master and she told me the course is called “Muny Ki” and is a 3-day course which allows you to receive sacred rites, bringing in much positive change, healing, and transformation, that you can also pass on to others.

So, there you go, three different therapists, three different modalities, and amazing experiences with each.

Your spiritual and emotional wellbeing is so important, never overlook an alternative healer or someone that works with the energies, as this can be powerful stuff, powerful stuff indeed!

Until next time,

Tanya

Professional Tarot Reader

April 1, 2019March 28, 2019 Tanya

This year I am delving into the world of professional Tarot Reading on full throttle! It has slowly but very surely been picking up, with more and more reading requests as the year progresses.

At the end of March, myself and a friend organised another local Mind, Body & Spirit event in our home town.

As well as being the co-organiser, I also have my own stall for 15-minute tarot reading sessions. I did this for the first time at the last event back in September and sat with 7 clients. This time there were at least 17 in one day. For a newbie, this is quite a lot!

It’s a weird feeling when you are doing these types of events. I get nervous, excited and not really sure where the day will take me. You can have anyone sit at your table. Sometimes they feel drawn to you, some are very happy, others are in a world of sorrow and pain and need deep healing.

I went through an array of emotions from sitter to sitter….in fact I was in an energetic bubble, I had no idea what was going on outside of my table, I had friends and family that had come to see me but all I could muster was a quick wave if I saw them at all.

By lunchtime (I didn’t get to eat – I forgot to block out a lunch break on my appointment sheet and by the time I did stand up to go and buy a sandwich, the food area shutters had gone down) my appointment sheet was full until the end of the day!

What was happening? Why was I getting so many this time, was it because I looked busy? I started to think that and then each reader would sit down and say “I have come on the recommendation of my friend who just had a reading from you”…..and then the penny dropped. They like my readings! I finally had a moment of clarity that would push my self-doubt to the back of my mind.

I have a real issue with the ego in any form of spiritual work. In this business, you meet a lot of people who have what they feel is a gift from God and they literally float around like they are incredibly special people. This makes me feel very uncomfortable. I do not believe that anyone should feel they are “the chosen one”. Some people’s spidey senses just reach a bit further than others, it’s like some people are better at sports or the arts than others, that is all. No need to have a god complex. So because of this I always worry about the ego.

But as I am learning, there is a difference between ego and self-worth/confidence. As I sat there, reading those cards, communicating my strong intuitions on the sitter’s life journey at that current time, it hit me that not everyone can do this. I have a skill that not many people I know possess, and that is nothing to feel big-headed about, it’s to feel proud of.

I’ve spent twenty years learning the meanings of 78 cards. I’ve spent the best part of 5 years developing my psychic intuition to allow me to take those meanings further and deeper. This is my dedication and my talent rolled into one. So, of course, I deserve that many people at my table because I am helping them and that’s all I want to do, help them.

On that day I went from wondering if I could really do this to walking out the door feeling like this is my job now. There was something else that happened too.

I was suddenly saying it how it is, without worrying about causing offence. Don’t get me wrong, I have always been honest in every tarot reading I have ever conducted however I have always been cautious and protective of my client’s feelings. On that Sunday, I suddenly had balls that I didn’t realise I have! Of course, remaining professional yet assertive at all times. Here is an example:

A lady sat down at my table telling me that she had never had a reading before. This is always a good thing as they are an open book however there is also a lot more pressure. I made sure she knew what type of reading this is.

“This is a tarot reading, which means I am tuning in to your life, your energy on a psychic level. This isn’t mediumship so I won’t be connecting to any spirits today. Is that okay?” I asked, she said yes and eagerly sat down.

Now with the cards, normally the first one or two start to give you an indication of what is happening in the person’s life. I always start by talking about the meaning of the cards and then start to build the story with my own interpretations of their meanings. Every tarot reader should ask questions. Popular to contrary belief, they are not cold reading by asking questions. The reason for a question, as an example, is that they can feel male energy in the particular situation and they need to place him, he could be the son, brother or husband. So a quick “are we talking about your husband here?” can help the reader to then really delve into the situation. Of course, you will get the reader who needs no cards or deviation props whatsoever and will sit there and basically reel off loads of stuff about your life, this ability is rare and what I have found in my experience is that they are no holds bar psychics which will tell you someone will die in your family in the next 12 months (this has happened to me, it was horrendous and very unprofessional.). I am not that type of reader. I do hit on lots of stuff that I would not be privy of knowing, for example, I’ve read for a lady and I could see a hairdryer floating above her head, I asked if she was a hairdresser and she confirmed she was. But on the most part, we do need a bit of dialogue with our sitters.

Not with this lady! She said in front of me and shook her head “no” to everything I said. That’s interesting, I thought. These cards are strong emotions, in all the years I have had someone in front of me, they have never said no like that. I tried and tried and tried and all she did was shake her head and look puzzled. I realised very quickly that this could be because of three potential reasons:

She was worried about opening up her private life to a stranger. She had never had a reading before so didn’t really know what it meant.
She was testing the reader. A sceptic who believes that you don’t have to answer and that the reader must know every single detail of your life to be a real psychic.
She was in some sort of denial to these situations, she probably needed help more than anyone that came to me that day.

After re-shuffling and dare I say it, feeling like I was losing my patience with this woman just a little bit, I asked her to ask me a question, because that should mean we get an answer that she can make sense off.

“Is my sister happy?” she asked.

Ok, I thought, I shuffled the cards and asked the question in my head. I could see from the card result that she hadn’t seen her sister in a long time, there was no communication. So I told her this.

“Well my sister is dead!” she said. I took a big, prolonged sigh and then collected my cards up.

“This isn’t a mediumship reading. I am not linking to spirit”. I said.

“Well I didn’t know that!” she said. Clearly, she didn’t really understand anything I had explained to her before she said down.

I smiled kindly at her. “I’m very sorry but I can’t read for you today. I won’t charge you, perhaps you should speak to either the lady next to me or the reader at the end, they can link to your sister. Have a lovely day” I said smiling at her. She thanked me and stood up “perhaps it’s me,” she said as she walked away.

I felt proud of myself for telling her that I would not be reading for her on that day. I also realised that yes, it probably is her or something meant our energies were not linking at that time. Out of 17 readings that day, she was the only blank face that I got. Everyone else was on the same page, hit after hit of information and intuitive guidance to help them at this time.

When I packed up that day, even though I was dizzy, hungry and exhausted, I felt like I was walking on air. This is the best job in the world!

Until next time,

Tanya

Don’t Be Afraid Of The Dead

March 11, 2019February 25, 2019 Tanya

“Don’t be afraid of the dead, be afraid of the living”, I have heard that saying before but I didn’t realise how true it was until a recent Ghost Hunt Outing. This isn’t a normal activity for me, in fact it was a first, my friend purchased some tickets to visit Epping Forest for a night walk on an organised guided ghost tour. I was really excited and didn’t know what to expect. The fact that I was staying up and being outside past midnight was thrilling enough to be fair.

On the Ghost Walk night, we all met outside the large pub at the Epping Forest entrance. We found a parking space amongst other cars that were sitting in the carpark, with steamed up windows and low thumping music. We considered briefly that we might have just walked into a local underground dogging meeting place so hastily made our way to where we were told to meet our guide.

Luckily we could see him in his yellow, high viz jacket, through the weed smoke that seemed to be thick in the atmosphere, god only knows where it was coming from but the air was full of the stink of drugs! Clearly, nothing to do with our tour guide but I started to “feel’ that the energy around this place was somewhat “lower” than I am accustomed to these days.

Anyhow, after some instruction from our guide Tom, who informed us that he is a medium himself, we headed into the forest for our first story. The format was planned out for us, we were to walk to the different spots of the forest where myth, legend, history and fact told us about different ghost sightings. I was really excited about this and at that point, not at all scared. What terrified the hell out of me was the massive spiders lurking on hanging webs on low branches and the mud in the forest (did not think this through on booking!).

The very first fable started with Tom telling us about the ghost of Boudica who has been seen on several occasions roaming through the patch of green we were looking at and walking into the forest with her long cape flapping behind her. I really started getting into this story when our attention was taken away suddenly from it to a small black car that was very slowly creeping along the road beside us. As it passed us, the window wound down and we heard a guy shout out (quite aggressively) “What are you doing?” in a deep, North London accent. Tom immediately sighed and shouted, “None of your business, drive on please” and proceeded to wave his massive flashlight in this guy’s face. Before I had time to mentally process that that action was not a good idea the guy shouted “What the f@*k are you doing man? I will get out and cut you!!!”.

Feeling my breath quicken, Tom seemed unfazed and said casually “Yes, yes, move along……”. Luckily, the car speed of with skidding wheels.

Tom apologised to us and said that this was normal. That, unfortunately, Epping Forest attracts some interesting characters and he gets some form of aggressive behaviour on almost every guided tour, he has only had to call the police once though.

Suddenly, any talk of ghosts meant nothing compared to what I was now experiencing internally. My anxiety was on overdrive. I have a real fear of human violence and it appeared to be right within my grasp now “cut you up”?? Tom didn’t seem to care a hoot and insisted that the guy in the car was gone and we should move on.

So we did, we walked deeper into the forest and I was relieved to be away from the road. As we reached our next stopping point (a bank next to a very swampy lake, in pitch black, god only knows how we didn’t fall in) I muttered to my friend that I’m now very anxious about the nutter in the car. She reassured me we would be fine.

I managed to forget about him when Tom asked us how we felt standing next to the green bog. Bearing in mind there was around twenty of us on this tour, it was deathly quiet in this spot of the forest. The moonlight managed to allow a bit of light onto the lake. I felt so sad. The lake reminded me of death, of peoples death.

“This lake is a suicide spot. There have been over fifteen reported suicides here over the past one hundred years”. Oh. How awful. I couldn’t wait to walk away.

Eventually, we did, we walked further and further and more and more tales were explained to us, some that made me feel very emotional (what was I thinking of booking this up?). But really, that was all ok because compared to the terrorising we were experiencing first hand with the living, the dead where nothing to be afraid of. That guy in the car, he decided to come back and he wasn’t alone. He kept driving past at every opportunity and circling our party like a fox around a chicken coup. Tom insisted that we not worry and that if worse comes to the worst he could call the police as he has a “hotline” to the local constabulary. It was so absurd I was starting to wonder if it was part of the tour?

We eventually entered a wide open space, next to a road. It felt like it was the middle of nowhere. I can’t stress to you how bad my anxiety was at this point, because of the guy in the car. I had a VERY bad feeling about his energy. I was so close to calling my husband and begging him to pick me up, even though I had no idea where we were in the forest and it was almost 1am.

When we reached the middle of the field, we stood around Tom whilst he told the next story. I so wanted to listen and enjoy it, but I couldn’t because I was so afraid of this guy coming back. And just like that, I pulled in that fear like a magnet and we saw the forbidding headlights and heard the slow tyres turning on the road leading up to us, us at a dead end, like a scene from a horror movie. I grabbed my friends arm and squeezed hard “we are leaving!” I said in a loud whisper, frantically looking for where we could run to hide from this maniac.

Everyone in our group was now voicing their concern and when the car stopped and this guy got out, I turned to Tom “Better call that hotline now ah Tom, like NOW!” I demanded. Tom huffed and pulled out his mobile phone, then we heard the scary guy shouting out “I’m a ghost, a ghost, a ghost, ahhhhhhh” like some over dramatic female drama teacher. Everyone started laughing (through fear?) and we realised that this guy was nuts, but probably not a cold-blooded killer.

Thankfully, that was the last we heard of him and Tom didn’t have to call the police. So the second half of the tour I could finally relax and enjoy.

Toward the end, we walked to Hang Mans Hill. Legend has it that this is where all the criminals back in the dark ages used to be killed and literally “hung out to dry” in front of everyone. It’s also the place where if you sit in your car and release the hand brake on a certain hill, an optical illusion makes it look like your car is rolling uphill. It was close to this spot that we did the séance.

I have never done a séance before. We all stood around in a circle and held hands (sweaty hands with a male stranger in the middle of a forest, don’t tell me I don’t know how to live). Tom, being the medium, told us to close our eyes whilst he asked the spirits of the forest to come forward and do different things, like tap our shoulders and push us forwards. Now, I have to stress here that Tom did not know that I and my party of friends were all mediums ourselves. I don’t actually feel that anything spectacular happened but I DID feel a weight pulling on my arm. I was in what I felt like was a deep meditation and after the séance which lasted I reckon around twenty minutes, Tom came up to me in front of the group and said that my energy felt very interesting, very calm, very still (“that will be the Reiki energy!” I said to myself with an inside smile).

It was time for the very last walk for the last account of the night. We walked deeper still into the forest and approached a massive ditch. We stood around the ditch, in a half semi-circle with our torches pointing to the centre. It looked very low down.

“Where is my volunteer?” shouted Tom. Oh darn it, I remembered that Tom had chosen me at the beginning of the tour to be his volunteer. Not wanting to point out that volunteering doesn’t actually work that way, I raised my hand and said it was me.

“Come forward Tanya and stand in the ditch”. What?! I didn’t want to seem like a spoil sport but I really didn’t fancy doing this! One minute later I was standing in that ditch, with nineteen faces looking down on me, all shining their torches on my face. I remembered a time back in my youth on the dance floor when I would have lapped up this feeling. Not tonight. I was in my very own living Blair Witch Project.

Tom, in a very serious tone, told me to close my eyes and take some deep breaths and to tell me exactly what I felt whilst standing in that ditch. So did exactly that, I forgot about being watched and just “felt”. This is what I experienced:

I felt so afraid and so so sad. I felt this was a female sadness. I was so scared, scared for my life, I wanted to drop to my knees and protect my head, then I saw a rope hanging from a tree, then I realised that I had to protect my unborn baby.

“What did you feel, it doesn’t matter if you didn’t feel or see anything, we are not all mediums here” said Tom with a kind smile.

I recited it all back to him. He raised an eyebrow and smiled at me then looked at the group.

“Well this is very interesting, very interesting indeed. Because here, in this very ditch is where a young woman was chased into by her husband, where he beat her and killed her then hung her from the tree branches, after pulling her down and digging and placing her in a shallow grave, right on the spot where Tanya is standing. This was in the 1970s. Well done Tanya, that’s really good”.

I shuddered. That poor woman. I didn’t mention the unborn child bit to Tom and the others, I just didn’t feel it appropriate.

After we walked back to the car, we thanked Tom for an “interesting night”. By the time we reached our car, all the other cars (not part of our group) had gone. They had left rubbish all over the place, it looked awful. Epping Forest, the place of natural beauty during the day, treated with utter disrespect during the witching hours, attracting the lowest forms of energies, drug dealers, hitman, murderers, rapists….they all go there. Why? Because it is a forest and is out of the way? I don’t think its that. I think the forest holds so much dark energy that goes back centuries, all that history etched in the tree bark, that it attracts certain vibrations, the dark energies that walk this Earth as humans today.

As we drove away, I vowed I would never go back to the Forest when the moon was out. I would save it for sunny day walks with me and my dog.

Until next time,

Tanya
