Executive Contributors at Brainz Magazine are handpicked and invited to contribute because of their knowledge and valuable insight within their area of expertise.

Have you ever been curious as to why something catches your attention, but not someone else’s attention, or why something keeps showing up?


As a Medium and Spirt Communicator Teacher, I help and teach clients how to understand messages that the average person may not interpret. I have many experiences where something would grab my attention and consider that I like to research and reflect on. I would look beyond the obvious of what was showing up. I do believe that everything carries a deeper message once you’re willing to look beyond the obvious and tap into intuition and spiritual wisdom.

Once you tap into your intuition and spiritual wisdom, Spirit Messages can show up anywhere. Below I will share three examples of this that clients and family members have experienced within the last couple of weeks:


The Breath of Fire

Four of my clients have shared with me that they witnessed a car being on fire while driving or walking down the street. When one witnesses a fire, maybe Spirit asking, “When was the last time your life was on fire?”


Perhaps witnessing this fire may be a time to reflect on the following:

  • Are you living your best life?

  • Where would you like more freedom?

  • Are you open to receive abundance?

  • Who do you need to forgive and receive forgiveness from?

  • How can you express yourself more?

  • How are you using your feminine and masculine energy?


Are you ready to light the fire of light and connect with the breath of fire?


Ant’s Medicine is the Strategy of Patience

A few days ago, another client shared with me that she was experiencing an Ant problem. I shared with her that Ants are a symbol of patience. Where did she need to have more patience in her life? An ant can carry leaves over hundreds of miles just to get it back to the anthill, Ants work together in supporting one another, which is why you often see more than one ant.


When seeing an abundance of ants, perhaps it’s a time to reflect on the following:

  • Where do I need to practice more patience?

  • Who do I need to give more support to?

  • Am I open to receiving support?

  • Are you aware that Patience represents feminine energy – How often am I in my masculine energy compared to my feminine energy?


Numerology

I love numerology. There isn’t a day that goes by when a client reaches out to me to share about a number or patterns of numbers that show up for them. Recently, many of my clients are seeing the numbers 9,99, 999, 9999. When referring to the number 9, it means letting go, declutter, completion, endings, transformation, transition, and evolving.


Meaning for 99, 999, and 9999

The number 99 represents the trusted psychic medium, wisdom, intelligence, and leadership. The 99 adds up to 18, which adds to the single digit 9. The 9 holds the energy of all the numbers from 1 to 9.


The number 999 is referred to as an Angel number, the Angels are reminding you that a chapter or karmic cycle has ended and you’re moving into a new direction and chapter. Know by seeing 999, it’s a confirmation of a fresh start.


When the number 9999 repeats (this holds true for all numbers), that message becomes more intense, and the Universe wants your attention. Should you choose to disregard the message, the next message, sign, or action will literally stop you in your tracks and knock you off your feet.


Spirit Messages can show up in so many ways; from images, feathers, words, numbers, coins, colors, and animals. I invite you to always be curious and take a moment to look beyond the obvious and reflect on what that experience might be teaching you or telling you, it’s never just black and white. There is always something more colorful and deeper when it comes to Spirit Messages.
