Old souls are very special.  They’re deeply connected to God and have lived many lifetimes.  They carry a great deal of wisdom, which they have accumulated over their lives and this knowledge is stored in their souls’ blueprints. Several current adults are old souls but there are many new children old souls coming to this Earth that are very advanced.  I have written about them before on this blog.  These children come to the Earth remembering a great deal about God and the connection to the Divine realm.  They can understand the mysteries of this world and seek to make it a better place.  They’re sent here to change and elevate the planetary grid.  In doing so, they raise the vibrational frequency of the Earth and its inhabitants.  Many of us have been given these old souls as our children, so we can help them to grow in their life work.

I knew my son, Brayden ,was an old soul because he was able to see and communicate with spirits just like me, when he was only a toddler.  He gravitated toward healing and balancing his own energy naturally.  When I was pregnant with Briella, I was told by my guides that she would be much more advanced than Brayden and me.  I didn’t really understand that idea until very recently.  Briella was always deeply compassionate, saving bugs and helping animals.  She didn’t like to eat meat,  just fresh raw fruits and vegetables. She liked to do Yoga on her own or sit outside and listen to the birds and the wind in the trees.  She was always very grounded, yet deeply insightful for such a young child.

This past summer, I was shopping in Home Goods with Briella.  She picked up a ceramic Buddha head and asked, “Who is this guy, mommy?”

I said, “That’s Buddha.”

She examined the head in her hands and then said, “I know him.  He’s a teacher.”  I studied her facial expressions, as her eyes widened and a smile grew across her face.  I asked her how she knew him.

“I used to know him.  He talks about compassion and God’s love and everyone matters not just people, even animals and insects; everyone is important.”

“How do you know this, Luvbug,” I questioned.  I knew nothing about Buddha having gone to Catholic school my whole life.  We didn’t have any books on Buddha and Briella attended Catholic school. I had not idea where she had been exposed to Buddha but she continued to tell me about him.

“He’s a friend of Jesus and one of God’s most faithful friends. God sent him here to remind people that God’s love is always with us and all around us,” she said with great excitement in her high-pitched little fairy voice.  She wanted the Buddha head for her room, so of course, I bought it for her.  When I got home, I called her father and told him what happened in the store.  He thought that she clearly had some connection to Buddha and as parents, we should just allow her to be herself. I totally agreed with his point-of-view.

About a month later, I had a client come to my office.  She was a Buddhist and studied in Tibet.  She was in the U.S. for some time, but planned on returning to Tibet to continue her work over there.  During the healing session, a lama (Tibetan Buddhist spiritual teacher) presented himself in spirit, as a guide.  I recognized his maroon a yellow colored robe.  I explained to the woman that he was there to guide her.  She already knew him and that he was a spirit guide for her.  He instructed me to tell my client about Briella and the Buddha connection in the store.  So I told her a shortened version of the story.  Then he said something I wasn’t prepared to hear.

“She was a student of Buddha,” he said.  I audibly repeated what he said, not actually comprehending it.  My client, on the table, placed her hand over her mouth.  Then after a moment, what he said registered in my head and I felt fear build in my chest.

“There has to be some mistake. I can’t possibly be the parent of a soul that studied with Buddha.  I get angry at people.  I curse; I’m basically an idiot” I said.  My client laughed.  Maybe she was agreeing with me.  But I really felt ill prepare to have a child who was so advanced. I’m just a healing medium and author.  I’m not a guru.  How could I help this child grow, when I know nothing about Buddha, Buddhism, compassion, or anything else she was teaching me about each day?

I later learned that is exactly why she was sent to me. One night this past fall, as I was rubbing her back and snuggling her before bedtime, she said, “Do you know why I picked you to be my mommy?” Of course I had no idea but I was ready to have my mind blown by a first-grader. At this point, it was common place for her to teach me new things each night.

“I picked you because I needed to remember how to heal myself, balance my energy , and use all my abilities.  You’re good at that stuff, so I picked you because you will help me with all of it.”  I wiped a few tears from my eyes because what she said resonated so deeply within me, it shook my soul like an earthquake.

“Well, I’m just so grateful that you picked me and I promise to always do my best to help you and love you,” I said, as I hugged her tightly.  Many parents of these old soul children, grew up in homes where they were misunderstood or didn’t fit in.  Perhaps they were clairsentient, or could communicate with spirits. As a result, many of these adults have felt uncomfortable being themselves in this world.  The old soul children are with those parents to help them love and accept themselves unconditionally–to shed the experiences from the past that hold them back.  These children make their parents remember who they are and why they are here.  It is all part of the Divine plan that is unfolding.  If you have one or more of these old souls in your family, give them the freedom to grow and be who they are supposed to be.  Love and nurture them because they are here to change this world one soul at a time.

I think as adults, sometimes we get stuck in the ego part because of insecurities and other projections. When we get wrapped up in the ego and showing off, trying to validate and prove our worth, our true essence can’t be shared with others. We can’t ever be fully present because we’re too busy trying to impress and hide our true selves from others. We don’t want to reveal our vulnerabilities but in fact those same vulnerabilities are what makes us human and deeply connected to others.  When we can love and accept ourselves, then we can be present with others without all those fears in the way. Take a lesson from a five or six-year-old! Observe self-love, letting go of the ego, and how to be fully present and love life!

I have written about the psychic sense clairsentience on this blog before.  I have also discussed children and their openness to energy.  Most children are born with their clairsentience activated.  As parents of these highly sensitive and deeply compassionate children, we need to recognize the signs of this ability, so that we can help support these children in understanding and working with their ability.

Clairsentience is the psychic ability to feel energy.  People with this ability can sense energy in a place as well as the energy of other people.  An example of this ability is demonstrated when we walk into a new place and can feel the energetic imprints it holds such as sadness, anger, or happiness.  A clairsentient child may be able to stand next to  total strangers and be repelled or scared by people if they carry darkness or perhaps anger in their energetic fields.

Parents of clairsentient children need to look for a few key signs that indicate this child is sensitive to energy.  First, observe the child’s behavior in crowded places.  Does the child become overwhelmed?  After the Ocean County Saint Patrick’s Day parade  one year, I took my son to visit my brother, Kyle, at his work.  At the time, my brother was a bartender at the Bamboo bar in Seaside Heights.  The bar was just a few short blocks from the parade.  I think Brayden was about seven at the time and they ordinarily wouldn’t let children in Bamboo, but they knew us and also knew we were just visiting my brother.  I was carrying a diaper bag in one hand and Brayden’s hand in another. As we stepped through the door, we walked into an undulating wave of green.  Everyone danced while sporting their favorite green clothes paying homage to their Irish heritages.  My brother offered Brayden a soda and he said, “No.”  In fact, he said, “Mommy we have to leave. There are too many people here and I can’t breathe.”  I could read the look of panic in his face as his eyes widened in desperation.  We weren’t packed like sardines, but there were a lot of people in there and a line of others waiting to get in that snaked around the block.  I realized Brayden was overwhelmed by all the energy in there and I had not bubbled him up before we entered the place. We quickly exited and as soon as we got outside, he felt much better.

Sometimes clairsentient children can become overly excited or what seems like hyperactive in crowded places.  Instead of feeling overwhelmed by all the energy, these children feel wired and supercharged.  They may become hard to manage in densley populated places like malls, movies, concerts, and schools.  This is another response to these children taking too much energy in the sacral chakra and not being able to process it.

Clairsentient children can also have disrupted sleep because they can sense spirit energy.  When Brayden would sleep at night, he would always wake up, if he had a spirit visitor in his room.  Once I started clearing the house and tunneling light each night, he rested soundly. Unfortunately for all of us in the house, that process took a long time to learn but I eventually got the knack of it. 

So how can we help our children who are sensitive to energy?  First, as parents, we need to psychic shield them. I list a few psychic shielding exercises in this blog and I also have some in my book.  Secondly, we want to get into the habit of clearing the energy in our homes each night.  This ensures that energetic imprints and energy from the day will be cleared rendering the child unaffected by it.  I list two methods for space clearing this blog:  Tunneling light and the Silver Columns Exercise. In addition, as you physically clean your home each week, you should also use a physical method to  clean it energetically.  I use sage but you can use other methods as well.

When the child is old enough to explain the concept of clairsentience, you can teach him some methods of psychic shielding to keep his energy in check.  In addition, you should teach him to place his hand over the sacral chakra.  As he envisions it, the chakra should fit nicely under the palm of his hand.  If it is any large that the palm–like the size of a cantaloupe that is s sign that the chakra is out of balance and taking in too much energy.  He just has to keep his hand over it until he sees it as healthy and fitting under his palm. All children are Divine gifts, but clairsentient children are sent here to help us get in touch with energy and become more aware of what is around us.  Parents of these children have a special task.  They need to help these special souls balance their energy and their psychic sense, so they can live out their lives to the fullest potential.

The loss of a child can be an incredibly difficult time for a parent, whether the child passes as an infant or  an adult.  I have met with many parents who have lost children and although the specifics of each experience are different, they all share a couple common feelings including both guilt and anger.  As loving parents we feel responsible for children, even after physical passings.  Many parents wonder who will look after their children?  Who will help their souls?  What parents don’t realize is that God has planned for these passings and all of the logistics are coordinated.  There are always souls of family and friends on the other side to cross children and someone will look after them; they’re never alone.  They meet with a soul group of other souls with a shared similar mission and they work together on the other side.

Often, parents feel like they’re being punished or singled out by God, when their children pass.  I have  heard parents ask, “Why did God take my child?  What did I do wrong?” This anger can cause parents to lose their faith. They have done nothing wrong.  God needs the child’s soul on the other side for a very specific purpose.

My friend, Cecelia, lost a daughter, Laura, in a sudden car crash; she was just twenty-one years of age.  Cecelia learned how to communicate with Laura.  She asked Laura to send dimes as a physical symbol.  The dimes were a reference to a childhood book Cecelia read to her daughter.  In times of distress, she found dimes in random places–she knew Laura was around her.

About a year ago, an acquaintance of mine asked me to reach out to her brother, who had passed in a sudden car accident.  Ironically as I spoke with the brother, Cecelia’s daughter came through.  She explained how she helped this man cross over, though she had no relationship to him.  She told me that on the other side, she worked with sudden accident victims.  She sent them where they needed to go as she put it.  Apparently, sometimes a sudden accident can be jarring for a soul and it can cause confusion.  Laura and others like her, work to get these souls in the right area, so they can move on.  Laura also had a plethora of information for her mother, for which I took copious notes. The next morning, I sent an email to Cecelia with the information from Laura.  She was thrilled and surprised by all the specific details Laura shared.

At the time of Laura’s passing, Cecelia had no idea why God had taken her child.  After Laura’s visit with me, Cecelia not only understood why Laura had to go to God but also why she left the Earth through a car accident.  Laura’s passing was and still is directly related to her job on the other side.

Parents share an eternal loving bond with children that supersedes physical death.  When parents understand that the souls of their children live on, they can open to a continued spiritual relationship with them.  As parents let go of grief, they will find their children lovingly waiting for them to engage in a different sort of relationship–one that involves signs, thoughts, and symbols.  When children cross over, we need to abandon hopes of physical relationships with them and embrace the concepts of everlasting spiritual relationships with them.

Love and light,
