As Above, So Below
When Life Imitates Spirit
I know there is a saying somewhere that says, “As above, so below. As below, so above.”
This quote is a reminder that our inner world, the world of our inner thoughts, emotions, and even our connection to Spirit and our soul often appears in some life happening.
December this theme is highlighted energetically and symbolically by the numerology for the winter solstice, 12/21, which I chatted about last week. On this day, what is inside of us reflects outward into our physical lives. If we are conscious of the light of our souls, then hopefully we reflect that light outside of ourselves towards others who may be navigating the darkness.
In the same way, the energetic frequency of what is happening in the cosmos often affects us in our physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual life. This is the basis for the entire system of astrology, where the study of the planets, stars, and happenings in the sky affect us here in the Earth plane with amazing accuracy.
For as long as I can remember, I have always considered what Spirit may be telling me by the things that happen to me in my natural, Earth life.
In many Earth-based spiritual belief systems, it is understood that we are all connected, that everything that exists has its own form of consciousness, and that at any moment, the consciousness of the Universe may be sending you a message through a seemingly natural and unavoidable life event or experience.
Last month, I wrote about how I became aware that a personal health crisis may have been related to a remote viewing session where my consciousness took me somewhere I was not supposed to be, and after a session with a fellow healer, I did have noticeable improvement, but sometimes our physical body takes time to catch up with what work we do in the Spirit world.
In my line of work, giving messages and healing from Spirit, I need to be at the top of my game every day. I decided to curb my appointments and only see a couple of clients a day for the remainder of November, to allow myself time to finish healing. During that time, some days my looking glass into the Spirit realm was clear, and sometimes I felt like I was peering through a fog.
It is also true that sometimes it is not me that is clogged up or blocked, but my clients, but when it is consistent over a few days, I begin to look at myself.
One day I was driving on the highway when I heard a loud ‘pop’ and realized that a rock of some kind had hit my windshield. I did not see any damage right away, so I continued on my way.
A day or two later, I noticed a crack in my windshield.
At first, the insurance company and the glass replacement company thought that the crack could be repaired. However, when I showed up for my appointment, it quickly became clear to them that my entire windshield needed to be replaced.
As I waited for the day of my appointment, I continued to do my ‘woo woo’ thing, but I did notice that seeing into the world of Spirit was a bit harder, much like it had been last month at the onset of my illness.
It appeared to me that my psychic windshield had gotten cracked, too.
I had always said that when Spirit stops talking, I will close up shop and do something else. I hit that moment.
I considered cancelling the rest of my clients and events.
My Capricorn brain needs to have a back-up plan, so I began considering how I would pay my mortgage if I closed up shop.
This was my moment of surrender.
I give up.
I am tired of the struggle.
I had not yet acted on my plan, but inside of my soul, I let go.
I had recently been seeing various symbols and signs related to death and rebirth. I am also in a personal 9 year, which is all about endings and surrender. I have chatted about this theme repetitively this year, since we are also collectively in a 9 year.
I chatted in my December energy report that one of the themes for this month has to do with the Tarot card called The Hanged Man. In this card, the man in the picture is hanging upside down on a tree. The symbolism of this card is related to self-sacrifice, or giving up something important for something better.

Take the example of butterfly symbolism. Before the butterfly emerges from the chrysalis, it has to completely dissolve into an unrecognizable and unfixable muck. What makes the caterpillar decide to create the cocoon and go inside? Does he recognize that somewhere inside, he is really a butterfly? Or does he just get tired of crawling around in the dirt, and have an inner vision of flying free?
For me, I just didn’t feel good. This entire year there have been other outside stresses as well, which has the potential of affecting my day-to-day life in major life-changing ways. I would have chunks of time when I could completely surrender to Spirit and go with the flow, and other chunks of time when I would have meltdowns and spiritual temper tantrums.
So as December approached, I began to surrender my plans and ideas, taking significant time to rest and reflect.
Jonah symbolism could also be applicable here.
Many of us are familiar with the story of Jonah and the fish, related in the Bible. Jonah had to be persuaded to surrender. He was not on board. Literally. He had to be thrown overboard and swallowed by a fish before he could realize his destiny. He fought his destiny with all his being, but found himself swimming in the darkness of a whale’s stomach acid for three days until he changed his mind and decided to follow his destiny.
You can read all about what I previously shared about Jonah, which eventually became a chapter in my newest book, NO STRINGS ATTACHED.
I could relate.
The feeling of being swallowed alive by a fish definitely resonated.
Here I am going about my business. Doing my thing.
I guess around the beginning of this year, Spirit suggested I take some time off. I agreed, but kept putting it off. I would take a few days off here and there, but no significant amount of time. And then in November I got sick, and my psychic windshield seemed cracked. I would have days when it was easy to receive messages and days when it was hard. It did not occur to me that I really didn’t take time off to rest as had been suggested by my Spirit team.
Then the day came for my appointment to get my windshield replaced. I had dropped my car off the night before since I had an early client the next day and wanted to have time to spend with Spirit first.
Yes, even in the belly of the whale, I kept going.
What happened!?
That morning, I realized that the presence of Spirit was intense. It felt like I was standing in the Light and every cell in my body responded. My sessions with my clients were amazing and they reported feeling euphoric like they had never before experienced.
It appears my spiritual windshield had also gotten replaced.
I guess Spirit decided the crack could not be repaired and my looking glass just needed to get replaced.
This year, 2025, has been all about surrender.
Surrender who you are and who you want to be. Surrender your plans and ideas and allow something new to begin to emerge.
The first time this happened to me was way way back in 1998-1999. This is when I realized that my identity was not wrapped up in what my faith had led me to believe. I dropped down into the belly of the whale and it took me years to emerge a new version of myself.
I think we all must go through some sort of death and rebirth at some point in our life. When we find that our identity is wrapped up in some aspect of our life, often we are tasked with separating ourselves from who we are as a soul and who we think we are supposed to be.
At this moment in time, this is what I know to be true.
I am a conduit for messages and healing that come from the world of Spirit. I am not sure why this gift has been offered to me, but I have to admit that it is easy to get one’s identity wrapped up in one’s mission. I acknowledge that I am just a vessel, and at any moment in time, this vessel’s mission could be complete.
I am happy that my windshield has gotten replaced. I acknowledge that it is my job to make sure I keep it clean and free of the crud that builds up just from living life in the Earth plane.
If my windshield gets cracked or foggy in the future, I may have to take a step back and go the car wash or the glass repairman again.
I would invite you to look at what life experiences are happening to you right now as a message from your Higher Self. I have long believed that our cars represent our path in life. Dreams about cars or circumstances related to our cars often symbolize what we are going through navigating our journey and our mission as a Divine Being who happened to agree to have a journey or two or a thousand through the Earth plane.
Years ago, when my daughter was three (she is now forty), I got my dream job at the Post Office, but I had to commute almost an hour and a half to the Post Office that had hired me. I left for work at 4 am and got home around 7 pm. I was fortunate that my mother-in-law at the time was watching her, so I knew she was safe, but I was completely guilt-ridden that even when I was home, I was so exhausted that I could not muster enough energy to entertain a three-year old.
During the three years that I was commuting, I was involved in seven car accidents. My co-workers began calling me “Jinx.”
If cars symbolize our path in life, Spirit was very clear in telling me that there was some problems with this chosen path. I do believe that this job was provided to me by Spirit, so that my little family would not be homeless and starving, however, I was feeling tremendous guilt for my lack of presence in my daughter’s life. I was also angry that I did not have dependable financial assistance by my daughter’s father.
It took many years to repair my relationship with my daughter due to my lack of physical and emotional presence. I spent years trying to make it up to her, until one day I realized that I did what I had to do so she could have food and a place to lay her head, and released myself from the prison I had created for myself.
Do you have symbols that appear to you, which indicate to you what you need to work on in your soul?
What things are happening to you right now?? Can you look into the looking glass of life events and see how your soul or your Guides may have been hinting around that there was something you needed to know or work on?
It is not necessarily an easy confession for a Spirit communicator to admit her windshield got cracked. However, our power comes when we are willing to say that sometimes we struggle and that is the nature of being human.
A Spirit communicator is what I do. If tomorrow Spirit decides to take it all away and give me a different job, I will probably protest, but after I have spent some time in the belly of the whale, I will probably do it.
Next year, 2026, I will enter my 1 year around the same time that we collectively enter into a new near, a new theme. I do believe that next year could be a game changer. I plan to write about this soon in more detail, as Spirit decides to talk to me.
Right now, I have not completely received insight into what next year may hold, except I do feel a significant shift and movement forward after these last few months of trudging through mud with concrete boots on.
I would suggest to you that you take a little time, as this year draws to a close, and do some inner contemplation. What did 2025 hold for you? What gifts were you given? Did you get your windshield cracked in some way? Very often our gifts from Spirit do not feel like gifts at the time. It is only in hindsight that we can see the value. The longer we try to peer through a broken windshield, the bigger the crack.
This year, I released my fifth book, NO STRINGS ATTACHED. I spent two years with Jesus, addressing wounds of the soul related to the myths and lies we have been fed for centuries regarding the person of Jesus and his mission.
If you find yourself questioning your faith, you could say the windshield of the way you navigate your path in the Earth plane has gotten cracked.
I would invite you to explore the questions I address in this book. You don’t have to agree with anything I say, or anyone else says. But be willing to ask the questions.
Here is what I know for sure.
Love is the only rule.
Anything that controls your behavior through fear needs to be examined and questioned.
When we heal, or evolve, or awaken, we are setting a precedent. We are forging a path so that humanity collectively can also awaken. The ones who are awakening now are not taking as long as I did! They are realizing truth much faster than I did. But my experiences may assist others.
The same is true for you.
When one of us heals, we all heal. When one of us suffers, we all suffer.
Let us heal. Let us hold space for others who are healing.
Let us love one another.
Thank you for entertaining my stories, and if you feel so led, supporting me by sharing, liking, subscribing, and checking me out on other social media platforms. I offer a daily message on Facebook and Instagram. I have classes, gatherings, and many other offerings on my website.
I have had a couple of requests from my readers for ways to express their gratitude without the commitment of becoming a paid subscriber. I have created what could be labeled a “tip jar” for those of you who feel so inspired.
This time of year, we often find that we are blessing people who serve us by delivering our mail, our packages, or in some way providing us with a bit of an easier life. Don’t forget to bless those who work hard to provide you with some sense of well-being or an easier time navigating life.
Let us finish up this year with nothing left but love.
