THAT'S ME TALKING IT UP- ON THE RADIO.


 "If You Don’t Go, You Won’t Know" 

Dare to be Authentic Radio Episode
 interview where I repeat what I encourage others to do as well as myself -  who be bold, be brave, and take calculated risks to know what truly demonstrates the real you.

Call in - talk to us! Wednesday
 10/24/18 10 a.m. PST USA

How I followed my heart and to live a life beyond I ever dreamt possible. Well, I did hope, dream, and set out with some reasonable plans.


As a Life Coach and Psychic Medium I encourage people to live with what has real meaning to them - to follow their heart with a clear mind.  In fact, since as far back as I remember I've always been that kind of person - do it! 


My own life demonstrates it. Created and maintained a successful business, authored four books, - did a whole lot what others said wasn't safe and reasonable - through clear focus, sweat and tears and disappointments, setbacks and wins - I did it! 

You can too -and by that I mean, you can live a life that is fulfilling to you, no matter what it is - and if you already do, there's more to explore within and perhaps without in the world.

HALLOWEEN RITUALS: SPIRIT COMMUNICATION

THE VEIL DROPS BETWEEN THE WORLDS

Hark! Hark to the wind! 'Tis the night, they say, When all souls come back from the far away - Virna Sheard, Poet –

Do you believe spirits continue to connect with you?
And some continue to stay around planet earth?
I do.

Why do I know there is something to it? I've been and contacted BY many, many spirits and around a lot of spooky places. I've know things about dead people I've never met and shared it with their living loved ones. And, I've been to the Otherside.

Please watch an interview with me about one person's experience on Youtube.
https://youtu.be/8a0qtJrcYgI

You too can securely contact your loved ones who passed as read in my book's Chapter 110, which gives you a lovely Halloween ritual to honor and communicate with your loved ones who have passed.

Excerpt From How to Talk With Spirits: Seances, Mediums, Ghost Hunts

HALLOWEEN, A SPOOKY, good time and all for amusement, right?

The night is much more than just for fun. All Hallows Eve or Halloween and November First and Second are sacred times for many throughout the world to honor the dead.

Cultures have special days to honor ancestors and the dead like the Celts and Mexicans.

The Catholic Church combined the pagan beliefs with their own to create a day to honor the saints on November first as did Mexico's Indigenous people for the Day of the Dead.

Celtic pagans believed the veils between the two worlds- that of the living and dead - thin then drop so spirits can walk the earth to visit their living relatives before crossing back over to the “Underworld.”

The spirits were not only our loved ones, but also all spirits who want to walk the earth, feel alive and connect to the living. During the spirits’ visit, spooky things happened, as you can imagine.

The Celts disguised themselves to waylay troublesome or evil spirits so they wouldn’t recognize and haunt people. Tradition warned people, especially the elderly, the sick and the young, to stay safely hidden inside so they wouldn’t be grabbed and taken to the “Underground.”

You can enjoy a most beautiful and heartfelt ritual in your home on All Hallows - Halloween. It can be an elaborate affair or a simple one as read in my book.

How to Talk With Spirits: Seances, Mediums, Ghost Hunts is available on Amazon, your favorite bookstore or for a personally autographed book, through me at www.juneahern.com or email sfcoaching@yahoo.com

WITCHES DO MARRY

Witches do marry -whether it be a handfasting ceremony and/or a legal affair (according to the man-made laws of the land).

My husband and I married both in a handfasting country New Year's Day ceremony in ‘02 and a civil ceremony in ’06.

Brides everywhere always have a great concern: What to wear?

What to wear? Witches can and do, wear traditional wedding clothing. The bride: a white gown or full ritual witch clothing. Where to buy witch clothing? You can put together a gown that might look like Elvira's maybe in white though rather than her black. Of course, wear black if you wish or visit a Renaissance or Celtic faire for capes and dresses. And, let us not forget that special sexy (witches are very sensual beings) undergarments, something a bit deliciously wicked!

Like other brides and grooms witches (includes pagans, Goddess' Worshippers and Wiccans) wish for their wedding vows, rituals and celebrations to be beautiful, memorable and reflective of their spiritual beliefs.

To have a wedding that is a true expression of witchcraft (pagan - Wiccan) beliefs and values witches begin with creating their own wedding vows––words that reflect true intentions and magic.

Vows: Create vows to be a sacred message for all to hear of your devotion to the goddess(es) and for some, the gods. Vows which declare the power, faith and devotion of your love for the intended as well as the purpose of uniting families. End your vows with saying Blessed Be or So Mote it Be (it's the truth or the truth is spoken), which is like saying Amen. You've sealed it.

Perhaps you would want to include a few ancestors - those who have gone on to the Underworld or Slumberland (heaven etc) who inspired and loved you. Those who have passed on can certainly be a positive part of your wedding as you bring them in through calling their names(s). Blessed be.

Another suggestion: after exchanging vows place the paper your vows are on in a circle on your wedding altar. The circle can be drawn before or at the time of the ceremony and made from small stones, crystals, shells or rose petals. Or you can choose to burn the while at the altar in a fire-proof container such as a table size cauldron or a larger one, like a fire pit. We burned our papers afterwards in a cauldron to send the words up to the ethers - the cosmos.

Scatter the ashes in a moving body of water or bury in the ground.

The altar: prepare it before before the ceremony. Place a white candle in the center and on the four corners of the altar place candles in the four directions: East (can be white or yellow), South: red, West: blue, and North, green.

Include four elements, fire (white candle) incense (air); water; a cup or bowl of water and Earth can be salt or a crystal. Flowers are beautiful on altars for all celebrations and they're a gift from the goddess. Add whatever else has meaning to you.

After our civil marriage ceremony my husband and I exchanged vows again at our reception. They were written on special paper (parchment)with selected colored pens. I also read an old Celtic poem.

We it a unity candle (two figures intertwined). The image candle was a man and woman united in wax. It burned throughout the reception in a safe fire-proof container away from guests bumping into it but where it could be seen.

At our the handfasting we had two separate image candles - ones we chose independently - my husband chose a green man and I, a red woman. They were placed in a pie pan facing each other. Oh, how fun to see the different colors of the candles blending together, becoming one melted wax design. A niece and nephew dressed up some Barbie dolls and placed them around the bottom of a tree trunk where we stood for the ceremony. The dolls, they said, were the forest fairies. It truly was fun and cold!

If you want to include family or friends to light the unity candle symbolizing the brining together of important people in both of your lives, ask from each family a parent, grandparent or child to light at the unity candle. My husband's daughter and my son lit separate candles and then presented them to each of us, which we lit the unity image candle.

As a minister when I officiate a wedding I provide two image or figure candles set on a platter and later after they have burned down, I “read” the wax combination for the couple. The reading includes how the couple will blend their lives together.

If older family members or guests of another religion perhaps consider including a piece or part of a conventional rituals or religious aspects in a show respect. It can help to bring them into accepting and celebrating your pagan union in a joyous way. The word God might be said, as would The Lady and The Lord, or a particular goddess, such as the Greek goddess Hera aka Juno Roman name, goddess of marriage.

Hanfasting: If you are exchanging rings afterwards blend in the handfasting ritual. Clasp hands and with the free hands tie a ribbon around the united hands. There are different colors of ribbons you can use. Research which ones appeal to you.

Jump the Broom - old pagan wedding ritual - at the altar stand within a circle drawn beforehand or the bride’s attendees can draw a circle around the couple before or after the vows are exchanged. After the vows one of your wedding party can lay the broom down for both to jump.

Jumping the broom marks the beginning of making a home together and symbolizes that the groom and bride physically and spiritually crossing the threshold into the land of matrimony. As they sweep away the old and the welcome the new they begin a new life together with a clean sweep!

Four Corners: Witch, Wiccan or pagan ceremonies and rituals begin the magic with Calling in the The Four Corners (Elements.) This can be done by the officiate - the High Priestess or Priest.

A wand or finger can be used as one moves around the four directions and a colored candle (see above) placed in each direction is lit.

• Face East - As we welcome the sun each morning, the dawn of a new day we welcome in energy of the east.
• Face South - As we welcome the spark of the day to spark the fire of my actions we welcome in the energy of the south
• Face West - As we leave my dream world we bring them forth into our waking day to manifest within the right time. We welcome the energy of the west.
• Face North - As we bring into form that which is manifesting, that which we work to create we welcome the energy of the north.
• All around: We welcome the powers of above, the powers from below and the powers all around.

After each direction is welcomed by the officiant or one or both of the couple the guests can participate by saying "Welcome!"

Here's a website to gather more information:
http://www.ceremonies.com.au/sitefile...

Anther four corner ritual: acknowledge the corners again in a different order. This is said by the couple:

• Face South: Fire:
 From fire comes love and warmth. The spark that created our passion. Welcome Fire!
• Face West: Water:
 Water is the giver and purifier of life, sustaining us, as it will this marriage.
• Face East: Air breaths new life into love.
 Giving both _______ and ______ the freedom to be themselves.
• Earth:
The earth upon which we walk provides us with our home and our future.

Merry meet, merry part and merry meet again. Wishing you a very joyous union of love.

Handfasting and Wedding Rituals: Welcoming Hera's Blessing by Raven Kaldera suggests how to create a holy pagan/witch/Wiccan wedding.

GHOSTS, SF HAUNTINGS & JAMAICA SCARY ENTITIES


RADIO INTERVIEWS
TALKING SPIRITS, GHOSTS IN SAN FRANCISCO AND MY SCARIEST INVESTIGATION IN JAMAICA. 

I can't walk well (double fracture ankle) but I can still talk! 


If you missed my radio interview you can listen to last night's show at Night Dreams Talk Show with host Gary Anderson. Gary was an easy to talk with host and told a couple of his own stories; he worked at a very haunted building confirmed by many other employees and he also told of his most touching, unusual story of his father's passing.

I shared my first paranormal investigation in San Francisco's strip club where a bizarre death took place and the creepy meeting of low grade entities in a SF site where the most deaths from the 1906 earthquake in the city happened. I was asked what was the scariest paranormal experience I had and that was Jamaica when on my first demon possession. Hope you have a chance to listen and please ask questions. All is covered in my book, How to Talk With Spirits.



I have two more shows in October on the below radio programs:

October 24th, 2018 10 a.m. PST, U.S.A.

WHAM BAM THANK YOU - NOT!

WISHING FOR MY FAIRY GOD MOTHERto cast her wand over my feet and chant the magic words:

Salagadoola mechicka boola bibbidi-bobbidi-boo
Put 'em together and what have you gotbibbidi-bobbidi-boo
Ain't going far.

This is not a thank you ma'am kinda wham bam. It's a thanks a lot, damn it!

The GodMother appeared after the wham bam because I didn't listen to my guiding angel who kept reminding me for months to slow down from doing too much. Been a great exciting busy year with lectures, radio shows, teaching, event planning and then - POP the bible - Angel said, Can you hear me now?

Accident Sept. 9th: Foot to knee cast - double ankle fracture requiring surgery hardware implanted, the other ankle badly sprained. The feat of the day is getting to the toilet on time.

Enters The Fairy God Mother Working Her Magic - reminding me how many loving caring people I have surrounding me: hubby, son, grandkids and great friends sending prayers, Reiki and healing vibes daily and a gift of books and chocolate. What more does a girl want?

My 7 yr. old grandson reminded me how feeling happy takes away pains: way: He gave me a big hug and bright smile then said, "When you're happy you feel better, Omi (my grandmother name). Isn't he right?

On the dat of the accident I felt my mother's presence. She transitioned (died) 27th of September 2016. I don't ask her to visit because at 97 yrs with her many years of rocking' wild 8 kids she skipped into the sunshine of Our Lady's grace. Peace and rest was her's.

Morning of the surgery I felt her strongly from start to finish. This morning. next day, I had several psychic friends tell me they saw my mother with me and a few had lit candles to Our Lady, Jesus' mother, Mary. One said the candle flickered brightly at the exact time of my surgery. None previously knew my mother's spirit had come to me nor the time of the surgery.

That Fairy Godmother waves her wand and chants - bring in the muses!


More good news! I wrote the first two chapters for The Skye in June sequel as been asked for over ten years. What to title it, I wonder? Any suggestions?

Thank you for your thoughts and send a prayer whenever you have time.

A SACRED SPACE; YOUR ALTAR

Do you have that special place; the space you go to stop the world! Quiet your mind and body to reflect, release tension and worries and just "be." - do you?
Some think it's bed and that certainly can be. I love my bed and book time before sleep but when there's things on my mind, like having difficult day I take to bed the unresolved issues, which plague my peace of mind and sleep doesn't come easy.

Also, during sleep it is thought by some metaphysical students, we astral travel thus are busy at night tripping around the universe, let alone those overly busy dreams.

For some it can be a special nature place. But there's another space and it is in your home; a place to be, reflect, pray and meditate. In that space you can have an altar.

Altars are common in most places where people gather to practice and share their spiritual beliefs.

It's the focal center where the leader of the group performs services (rituals).



You might want one in your home to gather in your whole self, to be still, pray and meditate.What is the benefit? A chance to stop the world and gain a healthier body and mind; to release, to find answers, to enjoy the beauty of your sacred space.

It can be in nature. Certainly, I love being outdoors in nature almost every day. But I also have had for many years, a sacred space indoors. Do I need it? No, I can meditate without it, although being in front of my altar allows for a concentrated focus on my spiritual studies and supports my meditation practice. I journal there, read positive sayings or study my spiritual teachings.

Are you ready to create your altar?

It can be a small table, even an upside box. I've seen some make space in a shelf
and Buddhist friends use a box with flaps, stand it up, cover the out and inside with a decorative cloth, place an image or statue of the Buddha inside and use the flaps as doors to close after meditation, making their altar private.

As best you can have your sacred space in a non-busy area. I've seen people set one up in a closet.  Remember, your altar is not a place to drop keys or other objects onto nor is a place for others to add or take from.

In your sacred space before your altar have a comfortable seat; a cushion, blanket or chair. I usually sit crossed legged on a rug and might add a pillow once in while depending upon my aches and pains. And, at times a straight back chair.

I say sit because if you lay down chances are you'll fall into sleep - even into a light one - and this is different from meditation. You want to be in peaceful, relaxed, and aware. Think of the state just before falling or awakening from sleep how you are aware of what surround you, but how relaxed you are - that's the state you want to be in.

An altar can be simple. like having a lit candle on it. As you gaze into the flame your mind will quiet your with a one-point focus.

Or, you might add an image representing a deity (God, Jesus, Our Lady, a goddess; Buddha etc) or a photo or picture of a special place in nature you enjoy.

Your altar might be elaborate: candle(s); flowers (bring nature to you); incense burner (scents help us relax, refresh and heal -research aromatherapy benefits); crystals, pictures of loved ones; and/or any representation that helps you feel peaceful and loving. You might include some non-lyrical music or a waterfall.

In the beginning of developing a meditation practice some quiet their many thoughts by focusing on a sound. In time, you can quiet yourself without outside sounds.

Also, I recommend you place your altar in a space where others in the household do not interfere with it, and this includes pets. When you sit at your altar it's best not to have your pets walking around you. That is, of course, your choice although in a meditation, quiet time our devotion is to turn inward and not be stimulated by outside happenings.

Once you've created your altar, sit there. Light the candle, gaze upon your beautiful objects, breath in and out, follow your breath and breath deeper - relaxation will sweep across your mind and body as you in a peaceful state. Just be in that space.

This will strengthen your meditation practice. You'll find the time and desire to be there to meditate, pray and vision more often.


Keep your alter spruced up. This is where your magic is created.

UPDATE: I've chosen a title (from my last blog) with the help of others: My new service offered is Metaphysical Mentor. Read more about me and my work at sf coaching dot com and my books and paranormal investigation videos at june ahern dot com
