General Information
I lost my mother several years ago and I just want to
know if she is alright
Your mother is at
peace – she has gone home!
Our physical bodies are
in the third dimension. When we breathe our last breath, the soul leaves
through the top of the head, rises above the body and travels through the portal
or tunnel to the fourth dimension which we call the “heavenly realms”. The soul
is then free from any existing physical pain or trauma. The fourth dimension is
filled with love and light. There is no negativity, suffering, war or crime
there. Souls there are in perfect peace. They in turn want us to heal, be
happy and be in peace here.
My sister died before I could get to the hospital. Does
she know that I tried to get there and that I love her?
Yes – your sister
indeed knows that you tried to get there and she knows you love her!
There is no time or space
in the fourth dimension and the soul has no limitations. This means that the
soul can tap into “universal knowledge” and gain insight. A soul, for example,
can look down and in one glance see the whole scope of a person’s life in the
third dimension. The soul can see a relative from infancy, what they are
experiencing now, and what may lie ahead. So your sister not only knows you
were on your way to see her in the hospital, but can also see the whole scope of
your life. She also can “hear” what you’re thinking now through telepathy.
My son committed suicide. Is he with God?
Your son is ultimately with God!
Suicide is a very complex and "touchy"
subject. There are many motives with suicide—if one feels like a failure in
one's life, if one is in great pain physically, if one is clinically depressed
or in a drug-induced state, or merely trying to escape from other people,
situations or even themselves.
Many claim suicide is the most selfish act
possible—the ultimate slap in the face for God and those left behind. Some feel
no person has a right to take the life within himself, since all are part of the
Godhead. This is based on the premise that we are destined to learn life
lessons and that we have a life purpose before we incarnate on the earth plane.
By choosing to end this life by suicide, we cut this timeline short, making it
impossible to complete the mission chosen for this part of our soul journey.
Life is full of decisions and choices.
Decisions are in themselves a learning process by which we grow. Any "personal
choice" is just that, it is neither right nor wrong, it just a choice! God is
not judgmental—but a force of pure unconditional love. When we cross over, we
ultimately judge ourselves, during the life review. We see and re-experience
the love we have given to others. We also see the ones we have hurt and abused
and hopefully are moved with compassion towards them. This also enables us to
see if we have fulfilled our soul purpose during the lifetime and where we need
to go from there. This produces "awareness", which produces the ability to try
and be more Christ-like or perfected. In the biblical sense, we must all face
ourselves "in a mirror dimly lit" and that is why our life review is so
important for soul growth and progression. Again, God is pure unconditional
love, always forgiving with long-suffering. Through our life review we also
forgive ourselves and others.
Many times the souls are met and mentored by
"group souls" called "suicides". They are teachers who have volunteered to
share their own past experiences through this action. With the mentor souls
there is no intimidation, no criticism, just helpful assistance and compassion
through education. They make good teachers because they have experienced the
action of suicide themselves. So between the past life review and the mentoring
help of the souls we "awaken" to our actions. Please remember to always pray
for those who have crossed over.
Why does God allow children to die at such an early age?
Am I being punished?
No – you're not being punished by God because
your child died at an early age.
We are all very "old souls" and are
co-creators with God. Each soul has free choice and free will. We choose to
come to the earth plane to learn certain lessons and fulfill our soul mission.
We select a set of parents to learn and grow with. At anytime the soul can
change its mind and retract from the earth plane. For example, the soul hovers
around the mother before birth. If the soul retracts from the mother's body by
changing its mind, the mother has a miscarriage. A still born is when the body
is fully developed and is born, but the soul does not wish to enter at that
particular time. If the soul wishes to stay, it enters the baby body through
the top of the head at the time of the first breath, which we call the "breath
of life".
Usually, when a soul leaves (or dies) at an
early age, it has fulfilled its purpose; and has lived a "lifetime of love" in
its short time on the earth plane. We choose our date of birth and our time to
pass. It is not a punishment for you because your child passed at an early
age. These are "soul agreements" that we make with each other before we all
incarnate on the earth plane. Perhaps the agreement was that the child would
leave early to help the parents learn emotional strength or to give the parents
the ability to mentor or help others who have lost children. Therefore, it is
not for us to ask “why” in the physical realms. The body (or temporary casing)
of the soul, can be destroyed, but the human soul, which is energy, cannot.
When the soul returns to the fourth dimension, it is happy and at peace; and
wishes that those remaining in the third dimension would heal and move on
spiritually.
Can you read for someone of Jewish, Buddhist or other
faith beside Christian?
Yes – remember, I am only the "messenger" or
"phone line".
The spirits or souls on the other side will
show me symbols of their traditions or religions. For example, when I was in
Taiwan I did readings for Buddhists and many Chinese symbols were shown by
spirit that they understood. Peaches were shown meaning abundance and the color
red was given to me representing good fortune. These were confirmed by the
person receiving the reading. I have done readings for those belonging to the
Jewish religion and again sacred objects were given to me that they could
identify with. The person having a reading receives what he or she needs to
hear the most, and the reading is customized or personalized for them.
Religions or customs are man-made. Since the
soul retains its mind, personality and memory bank, when it speaks through me it
will relay what it has experienced on the earth plane and will "connect" in some
way with the person having the reading.
Do you ever work with the Police in solving a crime?
No – crime solving is a noble effort, but it
is not my mission.
Many psychic detectives are great with this
process. My mission is to heal, to help those with loss and abandonment issues
to feel better about their lives and to help them know they are never alone. We
are ever surrounded by beautiful angels, loved ones and guides. I must stay
focused in the work I do and stay on track with what is needed from me to serve
humanity. I therefore leave crime solving to those who have chosen it as
their mission.
Do I have a Guardian Angel?
Yes – we all have a
Guardian or companion Angel!
The main "guardian" or "companion Angel" of
our soul was created to go with us on our journey throughout eternity. It never
leaves our side.
Angels are androgynous or sexless, but to be
more personalized with us, they will take on a slightly more male or female
essence. Angels are light beings created by God, to watch over humans on the
earth plane. They have never been in a human body (like our souls) and they do
not have free choice and free will, but take assignments from the creator.
But, in addition to guardian angels, there are
many kinds and levels of Angels around us! For example, some are
"project Angels" that come in around us when we're working on something
special—writing a book, building a home, planting a garden, painting a picture
and so on. They stay until the project is finished and then move on. There are
"birthing Angels" that come closer to us when we are about to conceive a baby,
and stay with us until the baby is delivered. There are "transition and death
Angels" to provide a smooth passing over to the fourth dimension. "Angels of
protection" watch over us in the car—in our comings and goings.
In addition to angels, we also have spirit
guides. Unlike angels, these are human souls that have chosen to help us from
the fourth dimension. They may be deceased relatives, or they may be souls that
were with us in a previous incarnation.
Why do you charge for
your services if this is a gift from God?
There are many "gifts" or talents from God.
The natural ability to sing or compose music, the ability to write, dance or
paint pictures are talents. For example, I'm also an artist and have been
painting since the age of 3. This is a God-given talent. I have had many
different art careers, and in two of them I showed and sold my artwork. Would
you expect me to work for many hours painting a large picture and then give it
away?
If someone has a gift or talent, he should
work hard to develop it. Then, when he builds a career around that talent, I
feel he should charge for his services. Just because one has a talent, it is of
little value if he does not work hard to develop the talent. Throughout history
men have been paid for their talents. For example, in the 1500s there were
visionaries, dream interpreters, court painters and musicians who were paid and
provided for by the court. The choice of charging for services or giving them
away, so to speak, should be left to the discretion of the one who possesses and
develops the talent. Many times I have given my artwork away, but in today's
world we all need to make a living.
The "visionary" ability—to see beyond the
veil—is another gift or talent I possess and chose to develop in later life.
When I started years ago I didn't charge for this new gift. But as it
progressed and the demand increased, I put my artwork aside (temporarily) to
focus on and develop this gift from God. I feel that since this is exhausting
work and since it is an "exchange" of energy between myself and the client,
there should also be a monetary exchange. It is said, "To whom much is given,
much is required." In other words, we are required to use gifts or talents
wisely to serve humanity. My mission is to love, to heal and to help humanity.
Although you offer gift
certificates for others, why don't you recommend them?
Many times, after a person has had a reading
with me, they are very excited and enthusiastic! The readings are very in-depth
and can be life changing. They help one to look in a new direction and gain new
perspectives. Many times emotional, spiritual and even physical healings
occur. A client then wants to tell others about the wonderful experience
they've had and many times they want their friends and relatives to have the
chance to experience the same upliftment. We are, as a human species, operating
on many different levels. Some are more spiritually evolved, open-minded and
literally "hungry" for enlightenment. Some, on the other hand, are not ready to
expand, hear the truth or change their perspective. Even though the "giver" of
the gift certificate is enthusiastic, the recipient may not be ready for the
experience. Therefore, when giving a gift certificate, make sure the recipient
really wants a reading! Many times the person receiving a certificate isn't
ready, doesn't want it or is even in denial about healing. One cannot force
spirituality on another—they have to be ready!
We make this stipulation with certificates,
"Make sure the gift is needed, will be used and accepted." This makes it easier
for everyone involved.
Seminars
What exactly happens at a Seminar?
A seminar is an uplifting experience with
attendance of 50 to 200 people or more. I provide a brief introduction about my
background and how I came to do this type of healing work. I provide
clarification of the difference between angels, loved ones and spirit guides. I
also provide group information during the three-hour session that is helpful to
everyone present.
I will first clear, center my mind and say a
protective prayer for the group. Then I go where I am led—to the individuals
that need information the most. Who is chosen also has to do with how strong
the "energy" is of the loved ones connecting from the other side. After the
introduction, I channel for approximately 1 hour. Then there is a break to give
me time to clear and regroup my energy. After the break, I resume part two by
answering questions and resuming readings for the group.
Note: There is no guarantee that you will be
chosen for a reading, but the
experience will prove to be an entertaining and enlightening afternoon!
I attended a seminar
and you did a reading for someone else that sounded like it was "just for me!"
How can this be? Did you read for the wrong person?
This happens many times! No matter how large
a group is, there is “group energy”—electricity in the air, so to speak.
Everyone is filled with anticipation and wants to hear from loved ones. A group
is predestined, in a way, to be there. And even where they sit can be
orchestrated by spirit. For example, at one seminar there were three widows
sitting next to each other—in the same row! They didn't know each other
personally, but when I read for one of the widows, the other two cried and
received a great deal of solace. They were all experiencing similar life
lessons and similar losses. So even if you don't receive a personal message,
many times you will derive healing from another's reading. That is why the
seminars are so special and moving for people. Since each group brings a
special energy into the room, there is "group information" given that is
interesting for all involved.
Is it assigned or general seating at a seminar?
Seating is general. I
(Michele) move throughout the crowd at all times providing everyone with an
equal opportunity to receive a reading.
Readings
How do I go about scheduling a personal consultation
with Michele?
Due to some special scheduling for the New Year, we were able to
greatly reduce Michele’s backlog so that availability for personal phone
consultations are now much sooner! We are currently able to schedule a session
within one month or less. The
easiest way to schedule an appointment is to provide your name, address and
phone number (both AM and PM hours) either via email or voice mail. Someone
will usually respond to you within 48 hours to schedule your appointment.
What is a personal
consultation and how long does it last?
A Personal Consultation is a phone reading (in
person readings are available at additional cost) provided personally by Michele
Livingston lasting about one hour (including a brief introduction by Michele
explaining how the process works). After the introduction, Michele describes an
opening scene provided by her guides, relating to your life today. Her guides
will then interpret this scene and how it pertains to you at this time in your
life. After that, Michele will make contact with deceased loved ones, angels,
and spirit guides. At the end of the session, she can either do a health
scan of your physical body or answer specific questions (Time
permitting).
As a courtesy, each reading will be taped and
mailed directly to your home immediately following your reading. Note: No copy
is made of the tape; therefore, tapes are not guaranteed for quality or arrival
to your home.
What is the difference between an in-person reading and
a phone reading?
The information being received from spirit
will be the same regardless of whether it is over the phone or in person.
However, some people feel they need to be in Michele’s presence to receive an
accurate reading; but since there is no distance with spirit, Michele feels this
is not true. Therefore, it is truly a matter of personal preference.
In-person readings are held in a private
conference room at a facility in Harrisburg, PA and you pay a premium for this
service.
How can you do a reading for me without me being there
or in your presence? Don’t you need something personal of mine to hold in order
to connect and receive information? The idea of a phone reading confuses me and
I don’t know how you can do that.
There is “no distance”
with prayer or “spirit”. I don’t “do” the reading; I’m just the messenger or
liaison to relay the information back to you from the fourth dimension. I close
my eyes, center my mind and say a protective prayer. Then the “light switch” in
my mind is turned on. I start to see your energy or essence, personality and
soul’s journey with the “third eye”, (the spiritual inner eye) as we call it.
It’s a gift that can be developed through awareness. I am also an artist and
have been painting all of my life. I feel that this “artist within me” helps me
to “see” the spirit in a detailed and clearer way. I then relay rapidly back to
you what I’m seeing, feeling and hearing. I, along with my three “light beings”
or guides, tap into your spiritual energy—not your physical presence.
Over the last 15 years I
have increased my vibration through prayer, meditation and awareness. This
increased vibration allows me to raise my energy to “see, feel and hear”, what
is around you, regardless of distance. Remember, there is no time, space or
distance in the world of spirit. Think of the radio or TV. The frequencies of
the radio waves are constantly around us, but we need a conduit to bring them
through. I am a “conduit” to tap into the higher frequencies around you like a
radio or TV, and am able to deliver the information or messages to you, without
your being in my presence.
