Recently reported by tvnz.co.nz/national-news, a grieving family turn to psychic for help. The New Zealand family torn apart by the death of their daughter has turned to medium Kelvin Cruickshank for help.

On December 4 last year, 20-year-old Samantha Henderson was killed after her defacto partner Justin Goldstone pointed a loaded, sawn-off shotgun at her face as he posed for photographs.

Twenty-one-year-old Goldstone was sentenced to three years and four months in prison for her manslaughter.

Goldstone has remained tight lipped on the events of that fateful night and so the family turned to Cruickshank in order to gain some closure. They are grappling with the fact Samantha could die at the hands of her partner and say some of the facts do not add up.

“All along I’ve struggled with how someone could be that stupid to have a loaded gun and point it at someone then physically pull the trigger,” says Samantha’s father, Dave.

They picked Cruickshank to help, as Samantha’s mother, Rachel, says out of the psychics they have seen “he was the one that was always so bang on”.

When Cruickshank made contact with Samantha’s spirit she sent a happy birthday message through Cruickshank to her mum. But it was her use of a nickname no-one outside of their family knows that turned Dave from a sceptic into a believer.

She bought the name “Pixie” in, which Rachel says is a name Samantha and Dave used to call her because of her ears.

“There was only Sam and Dave that knew that, so there was no way that he could have known that,” Rachel says.

This gave them confidence to believe the other information Cruickshank gave them about the day Samantha died.

Cruickshank said he got the feeling through Samantha’s spirit that Goldstone was on drugs at the time.

“He’s on something, there’s got to be some sort of reference to him being stoned or wasted or whatever and he snaps just like an owner of a dog to an animal. I can tell you he was high, high as a kite,” Cruickshank said.

Goldstone refused a toxicology test.

Dave said the reference to drugs made sense to him and actually gave him a little bit of peace of mind.

Cruickshank also said Samantha told him “with intent”.

However, there was never any evidence of intent, which is why Goldstone was charged with manslaughter, not murder.

Cruickshank said Samantha let him know she did not suffer, which Rachel said is the best she could hope for.

Samantha also expressed that she wants her daughter Hope to be with her parents.

As for those who say the family are silly for believing Cruickshank, Rachel says she does not care.

“I didn’t do this for everybody else or for anyone else to have an opinion.

“I did this for me and for Dave and for our kids, just to give us a sense of peace,” says Rachel.

The medium Kelvin Cruickshank was born in a small town on New Zealand’s North Island, and claims that from an early age he was aware of his psychic abilities because he could see people that other children could not. When he reached adulthood the visitors became harder to ignore and Kelvin realized that these visitors had messages which were meant to be delivered to others.

Recently reported in indiatoday.intoday.in, Indian Soap Star Ekta Kapoor has taken to astrology, leading her to rename her new movie “Once Upon a Time in Mumbaai” – adding an extra ‘a’ to Mumbai. Her astrologrer Kangana Ranaut can be credited with the suggestion of renaming the movie.

Kangana has no qualms about admitting that she is a staunch believer of astrology. And she reveals that she consults an astrologer on a regular basis.

Just like Ekta, who has complete faith in friend and tarot card reader Sunita Menon, Kangana consults astrologer Pallavi Shinde, who also happens to be her close pal.

“I do believe in astrology and there is no harm in that. I also tell people to try it out but only if you find someone good. There are too many fakes these days,” Kangana says.

It was chats on astrology which got Kangawna and Ekta together. And that’s why she could muster enough courage to suggest to Ekta that she respell the title of her next film.

“Since Ekta is a close friend, I told her to add an extra ‘ a’ in Once Upon a Time in Mumbaai and she agreed,” Kangna says.

“I usually don’t do this,” she adds. Ekta, of course, was glad to get some advice. Let’s hope the extra ‘ a’ works wonders for the film at the box office.

Ekta Kapoor is a popular Indian TV and film producer. She is also the daughter of famous Hindi film actors Jeetendra and Shobha Kapoor.

Have you recently ended a relationship or are you recently divorced? Are you thinking about dating again? Many times, putting yourself back into the dating scene is a good idea. But how can you know when it is time to start a new relationship?

Here are 4 Reasons Not To Start A Relationship:

Reason 1: You are not fully over your last relationship, or still have hope of reconciliation.

If you still fantasize about getting back with your partner, then you are not truly available for another relationship. Is there really a possibility of reconciliation, or are you making up the possibility? If there really is a possibility, then it is certainly not time to date. If the relationship is really over, then you need to fully accept this before moving on to another relationship. As long as you are in denial about the relationship being over, you are not fully available for another relationship.

Reason 2: Yur partner has died, and you do not feel ready for a new relationship.

If you had a loving relationship with your deceased partner, then any time you feel ready is fine. You already know how to have a good relationship, so there is a good chance of having another good relationship when you feel ready for it.

Reason 3: You have not admitted your part in why the last relationship ended.

When a relationship goes on the rocks, it is because each partner is contributing to the problems. It is always fairly easy to see what the other person did that caused problems, but much harder to see what you did.

It may be necessary for you to have therapeutic help in understanding your end of the relationship issues. I have been working with individuals and couples for 40 years and I have seen that people tend to repeat the same patterns in relationships over and over unless they do some healing work. Even if, at the beginning, a new relationship looks different from your other relationships, there is a good possibility that it will end up the same.

Most relationships create a system with one person being a caretaker and the other being a taker. These roles can switch in different relationships and around different issues. Unless you heal your tendencies to be a caretaker or a taker, you will continue to create relationship systems that don’t work.

Underneath all relationship dysfunction are control issues. Whether you control with anger, righteousness, blame, judgment, compliance, resistance, or withdrawal of love, until you heal the fear underlying all controlling behavior, you will continue to create relationship problems.

This does not mean that these issues need to be healed before starting a new relationship, but it does mean is that you need to be in the process of healing to have a chance at a good relationship.

Reason 4: You do not feel available for a new relationship.

Most people have two bottom-line fears when it comes to relationships: the fear of rejection and the fear of engulfment, which means the fear of losing the other or the fear of losing yourself. These are deep fears that start in childhood and may continue throughout your life, making it difficult for you to be fully emotionally available in a relationship.

These fears do not just go away. Until you develop a powerful loving adult self, you may take rejection personally and not know how to handle loss. Without a strong loving inner adult, you may allow others to control you, giving yourself up to prevent rejection.

Again, these fears do not need to be healed before starting a relationship, but unless you are in the process of healing them and continue to do healing work within a relationship, there is a good chance that you will recreate another unsuccessful relationship.

A relationship is a wonderful arena for healing and growth when both people are devoted to learning to be a strong loving adult. If you are on a devoted healing and learning path, make sure that your new partner is too!

“I’ve dreamt in my life dreams that have stayed with me ever after, and changed my ideas; they’ve gone through and through me, like wine through water, and altered the color of my mind.” – Emily Bronte, English novelist and poet.

Dreams have the tremendous power to transform our lives in so many ways. Taking the time to explore and understand our dreams can help us improve relationships, solve difficult problems, diagnose illnesses, inspire creativity, fresh ideas and new inventions, and teach leadership and right conduct. Sometimes, even a single dream can help shape our life purpose.

We spend up to 7 years of our lives dreaming

We all average about five to seven dreams a night (even if we don’t remember them) and will spend approximately five to seven full years of our lifetime dreaming.

Dreams are the language of the soul

Dreams are the language of the soul. They are spirit informing mind with the purpose of bringing wholeness and healing in our lives. Dreams serve two main functions: 1). To help us work through our issues or karma, and 2). To help us fulfill our destiny, purpose, or dharma. Most dreams will fall under these two broad pillars.

Everyone can understand their dreams

We all have the potential to self-interpret or at least understand our dreams to help enrich our lives.

Dreams come in many shapes and sizes

Precognitive or predictive dreams help us prepare for a future event that comes to pass. Clairvoyant or clear seeing dreams can often help us better perceive what’s happening in the present. And retro-cognitive dreams can help uncover something hidden in the past. Past, present, and future are one fluid continuum that dreams draw from.

There are visitation dreams where angels, mentors, and loved ones visit us to provide guidance. Lucid dreams occur when we become aware that we are dreaming – allowing us some conscious influence on the outcome of the dream. Telepathic dreams involve mind-to-mind communication with other people.

We often will dream experiential testing dreams (especially during a transition) where our soul is trying out different scenarios to help us make better choices or help prepare us for an arduous undertaking.

For example, a high school student transitioning over to college might have recurring dreams about participating in various on campus activities to better prepare him for the actual event. Or a recently laid off person who’s thinking of jumping into a business full-time might have a dream where she’s running her business but is wearing disheveled clothing, feeling exhausted, and swimming in a sea of paperwork. This dream could be warning the dreamer to transition over part-time or choose another business deal.

Dreams can have many layers of meaning

More complex dreams with several scenes will often involve multiple layers of meaning. Some dreams will require a long period of incubation involving several months or years because they are working on complex problems.

Some of these complex dreams might not make any sense at the moment of interpretation but will make sense after an appropriate gestation period has elapsed. It is well worth the effort to journal your dreams in as much detail as you can and make a conscious effort to explore all aspects and meanings of your dreams. Some dreams, like a good book, will bring new flashes of insight and meaning with each reading.

Dream Recall Tips

* Start with the belief that you can and will remember your dreams.

* Place a pad, pencil and pen by your bedside. (Pencil tips can break while pens can run out of ink).

* Try a light pen so you can write your dreams in the dark without having to switch on a lamp.

* You may wish to have a tape-recorder to speak your dream upon waking.

* Reading a good book on dreams 20 minutes before going to bed can help stimulate dream recall.

* Repeat a dream recall affirmation often such as: “I am easily remembering and recording my dreams.”

* Write down your dream as soon as you awake. 80 percent of a dream can be lost in as little as 10 minutes.

* Visualize yourself immediately writing down your dream on waking.

* Be as still as possible. Shifting positions in bed is known to reduce dream recall.

* Tell a partner or trusted friend in advance that you will share your dream with them tomorrow.

* Meditating and praying for guidance will put you in the alpha dream state and help increase recall.

* Get a good night’s sleep. Dreams get progressively longer peaking in the 6th, 7th, and 8th hours of sleep.

* You will establish the habit of remembering your dreams by journaling them for the next 30 days.

Dream Interpretation Tips

* Start with a sincere intent to learn from your dreams to better yourself and live purposefully.

* What emotional feeling are you left with? Feelings are more accurate and truthful than words in dreams.

* You are made up of 80 percent water. The state of water in your dreams often reflects your emotional state.

* Write a simple story line. Summarize your dream in one sentence and express the main theme.

* Ask: “Why did my soul have this experience? What do I need to understand? What issues need working?”

* Be aware of the events occurring in your life at the time of your dream; especially the day before.

* Remember that dream symbols often have dual opposite meanings. Good dream dictionaries will have both.

* There are three main types of symbols: archetypal symbols, cultural symbols, and personal symbols.

* Review all your dreams at least once a year. You will notice common themes and motifs to help guide you.

* Act on your dreams: call or visit someone, pick up a book, watch a movie, wear clothing from your dreams.

* Dream application leads to dream interpretation. By applying your dreams the full meaning reveals itself.

We now live in a world where the village Shaman that brought healing and hope to people is all but killed off. Under the veil of science and technological progress, the world weeps silently. It is time to bring back the lost art of dreaming…

Nearly all of us will read our horoscopes everyday in the newspaper and try to see if anything good will happen in our lives. While some people scorn at zodiac signs and their respective horoscope, there are many who ardently believe in them. Overall, it has been seen that many of characteristics of a zodiac are present in people born under that particular sign. In fact, in many parts of the world, the zodiac signs and characteristics have to match in order for a marriage to take place.

While zodiacs are used to improve wealth, health and professional lives, not many people know that sexuality of a person also depends on the zodiac signs. Sounds strange, doesn’t it? But this is a fact.

Every human being has a zodiac sign and has some features relating to the sign. The zodiac sign is determined using the birth date, birth time, birth place and birth year. These things can also tell about the sexuality of a person.

Aries is known to be intelligent and calm. They tend to be smooth unless they are activated. People born under the Taurus sun sign are said to be passionate and are hot. People born under the Gemini sun sign are said to be flirtatious, but their sexuality depends on their moods. The people born under the sun sign of Cancer are usually cool, but can be hot when evoked. However, they cool down immediately. The Aquarians are similar to the Cancerians, but need to have variations and also quality. People born under the Leo sun sign are so hot that they cannot be handled. The people under the Virgo sun sign are hot, but can get cooled down when they are satisfied. People born under the sun sign of Libra are people who are happy and romantic and have many things which they can find pleasure. Scorpions are like the Capricorns. They make use of every opportunity for love making, but Taurus tops the list in sexuality. Sagittarians are the most humorous people and they do not get into the act fully. They are romantic because as they know what romance is. The people born under the sun sign Pisces are somber and they need a lot of encouragement to get the drive.

Now this should be a clear indication as to how the zodiac signs control and rule a person’s sexuality. Check it out. You will see that it is a fact.

Secrets of the Monarch: What the Dead Can Teach Us About Living a Better Life

In SECRETS OF THE MONARCH, Allison explains that if you want to understand life, you must understand death. She shows readers how communicating with the dead has taught her important lessons about life and how people can apply these principles to their own lives.

Allison stresses that every person’s life is part of a bigger story, stretching past family and friends to neighbors, community members and society as a whole. By making the most of your life now, she says you can positively affect that story. After all, if you already know the story will end, why not make the content a true masterpiece?

We Are Their Heaven: Why the Dead Never Leave Us

With the success of the television series Medium and her first book, Don’t Kiss Them Good-bye, millions of people have embraced Allison, her story, and her remarkable gift. The idea for We Are Their Heaven was born out of the pieces of communication that Allison received from the spirits who touched her over her years as a medium. In this book, she helps people to understand that we are so special to those who have died that they choose to remain with us, not because they’re bound but because we are their happiness, we are their heaven.

Now Allison brings readers into her psychic experiences. As we walk the continuum of life and death with her and meet the people whose lives she has touched, we feel the pain of loss and are at once saddened and then renewed by her experiences and the stories of loss and connection. Each chapter focuses on a different type of loss — parents, children, friends, and spouses who have lost loved ones through accidents, murder, suicide, and illness.

Throughout the book, people who have had readings with Allison share their experiences and the significance of their readings. They take us into their confidence and share the unique details, identifying the calling cards of the dead, the initial private piece of information that convinced them that they were communicating directly with their loved ones. Allison, in turn, takes us through the same readings and describes exactly what was delivered and how it was conveyed. She convinces us that an essential part of communicating with the deceased is learning how to read both their signs (the message) and their signature (the unique information).

Through Allison’s eyes, we see that the dead are trying to reach their living loved ones all the time. She explores timing, coincidence, auditory and sensory communications, dreams, visions, incident manipulation, and streaming events to affirm their attempts. Allison presents the riveting details of her communications — what she hears, sees, and feels.

While career setbacks are often unavoidable, they are not insurmountable or irreparable: with a good mix of planning, networking and optimism, you can find yourself a new position or find a way to circumvent obstacles to growth in your current role.

In order to regain your momentum (and earning potential), you will need to think strategically and assess your situation objectively. Below, we outline some things you should think about if you are currently facing employment problems, or just want to be prepared.

TIP 1: UNDERSTAND YOUR SKILLS
The first crucial step when planning a career change or pursuing new employment is to take stock of what you know and what weaknesses you have. For example, if you are a great analyst but a poor communicator, then look for a role where you can utilize your analytical skills but won’t have to give many presentations. At the same time, if you know your presentation and writing skills need work, start looking for opportunities to speak more. Informal meet-ups of peers and professional organization events are both great ways to build your speaking skills (and network).

We all have areas that we excel in and those that, despite training and experience, we still struggle with. Understanding both sides of your skill set lets you focus your efforts on roles where you will achieve the best results.

TIP 2: GET TALKING
Perhaps the most important and most poorly utilized asset any professional has is their network. When you are looking for a change or need new employment, it’s the people you know that will be your best source of insight and leads. If you think about your relationships – friends, family, and colleagues – and make the effort to touch base with them, you will be amazed how many new opportunities can appear. Of course, this assumes that you have remained in contact and have been a resource to them in the past (whether personal or professional).

Many times, our pride stops us from asking for an introduction or a recommendation, but the truth is that the people around you want to help you. Not only will it make them feel good to lend a hand, but its also good business: while you may be in need now; who can say when the positions may be reversed? By helping you out now, they strengthen their own network and create new possibilities for their own advancement. It’s a win-win situation.

TIP 3: BE AWARE
Even the most conservative industries experience change: maybe it’s a tool that streamlines processes and makes people redundant, or, a new initiative that brings specialized-skills into demand. Either way, there will be winners and losers from the changes.

The trick to being a winner is knowing what’s coming. Of course, you are not psychic and often company decisions are opaque; but you should always be looking for information about your industry, company, and clients:

1. Perhaps you’ve noticed that more and more customer service is being shipped offshore?
2. Perhaps a previously non-critical business division is suddenly a major revenue generator?
3. Perhaps one of your peers has been recruited by another firm due to skills and experience you also possess?
4. Perhaps a client is looking for additional services that your company provides, but no one has put together a clean proposal to capture the additional business?
These are just some of the scenarios that occur in every industry. If you are paying attention, you may be able to capitalize on any of them.
1. If off-shoring is occurring, look for the niches that are less transferable or start preparing for a job search.
2. If a division is getting mentioned more, see if you can work on a joint project that will gain you visibility or see if they could use your skill set.
3. If you have transferable skills and experience, then why not look at other industries. Getting outside your comfort zone can offer a huge benefit – especially, if your skills are in short supply in a younger industry (or an older one experiencing a shift).
4. Don’t assume someone else will make the pitch. Maybe you aren’t the one to close the deal, but if you put the idea in front of the client you can gain a new contact and pickup some recognition for ‘going beyond the call of duty’. Taking initiative is crucial to your success.

Your job might depend on a company, but your career is your responsibility. Hopefully, you will take some of the ideas discussed above and incorporate them into your career strategy. If you are in a dead-end job, then now is the time to take stock and find a way out. If you are currently looking for a job, then make sure you are searching efficiently and looking at the right opportunities.

Either way, you will need to keep your eyes on your skills, your voice in conversations, and your ear to the ground. Good luck.
