Westbury Sunday Evening Seminar

[vivi56]

I will be attending the Sunday evening seminar in Westbury tomorrow night. If anyone here is going and wants to meet before let me know. It was a lot of fun last night meeting quite a few of us that post here. It's fun sharing experiences and putting faces on people who you write to.

Sorry I haven't gotten back sooner but was quite busy yesterday.
The Sunday evening seminar was really good. There were a lot of readings that were very accurate and it seemed that there were more questions asked than on Friday night. He was answering a lot of questions in the beginning and then started his readings .
At one point John mentioned a young man who crossed and Washington DC. A man from way in the back of the audience raised his hand and said the Washington connection was that he was in the Explorers when he was a young boy and John Edward's father was the leader and had taken them to Washington. It made no sense, John seemed puzzled as did the audience. John then asked him about someone who had passed and he yelled out to him, "Your father is a New York City detective isn't he?" and John said yes and then went on to someone else. This was an inappropriate situation and I think it was so wrong to do this. In his book, John doesn't really speak much about his father so apparently this man was out of place saying what he said. This annoyed many people and we wanted John to go on, which he did and get a good reading with a woman and her nephew and daughter. This turned into a long and accurate reading about her son and nephew.
Another reading was about 9 11 victims and a man who had lost his brother who was a fireman.
I didn't write anything down so I am trying to remember the best I can. Cell phones were ringing the entire time and I thought that to be so rude.
John spoke about a book signing in September.
As I remember more I will try to post .

I got to meet Carole before the seminar and what a lovely person she is. It was nice since I had read so many nice things about her. I also met Cyndy and spoke with her. It is nice to meet people who post here and talk to them

This was my tenth time seeing John and I still wasn't read however one day I will be read. I know in my heart that it will happen and that is why I continue to attend John's seminars.

Hi Viv,

I thought the same thing about Sunday afternoon's seminar. A lot more questions. The crowd was different also, more outspoken than Friday's crowd.

Sorry you didn't get read. Just remember, if at first you don't succeed, try and try again. Your day will come. I know it will.:)

Hi all, I am going to try my best to put into words as much as I can remember from the notes that I took this night.
The first thing he did was to remind everyone to not be a Relative Stealer! To take home an understanding of the process. He is there to validate that our family still loves us and is around us and that they are still part of our lives.
Questions: When they pass can they affect the TV.? Can they change the color of a flower? Yes, they can do this. Example: a rose could bloom in the winter.
Q: Do you speak to people from the dark side? He has never. They're all OK- they go throught a transition, and there can be negative- but he has never contacted the dark side. He said it's more like different levels that they are at.
Q: Can numbers mean anything? Numbers can be personal for everyone. They can mean different things.
Q: Can they be in two places at once? Yes- One time there were two seminars being held. Family members were at both seminars. (I believe they were in different states) He read one family, and at the same time the other medium was reading other family members.
Q: A woman's child talks to the otherside. What can the mom do for her child to help her? He said- Do not be afraid! It will probably pass by a certain age. (i forgot what that age was) But that listening to the child is the best thing she can do. Turned out that there was a Dad passed that was connected to the child.

This night a Grandmother came through. She had just passed, within the week. She was Greek. It's hard to write the readings down, because I don't have a direct connection to them. But this was a question I wanted to reassure my husband about. My mom told him before my sister and I left, that his Aunt couldn't be there because she had just passed. I told him that I believed that she could be there. This Grandmother's energy did not only come through, but it was strong, and she kept coming back! That made me very happy. I came home and told my husband. The Grandmother was from Greece, and didn't really speak english. John was a little worried about that, but she came through loud and clear!
Story- He told the story about how before his mom passed she gave him a bracelet, and it fell off at some disco (?) club.. He had spotted it, and just when he got near it, it was kicked. He didn't say if he ever got it back, but he brought it up because this Dad that people didn't talk to had a connection to a "Loss of a bracelet"

He went on and on about this twinky- he couldn't get it, or the people he was reading didn't get it, so he had to tell another story- In 1988 he was away- Bahamas(?) he was just relaxing in the pool, and there was another couple in the pool also. I guess they were getting a little romantic, and all of a sudden the guy said, " Don't ever touch my "twinky" like that again!!" It was a funny story (to hear him tell it) but they still didn't get the connection. LOL I must say the whole twinky thing kept going on all night. He thought maybe it was a hostess reference or Drakes. But this made the guys sitting behind me and my sis to start getting obnoxious. They actually got down right rude! I wanted to ask them to please be a little more respectful, or at least quieter. Everyone's entitled to their opinion, just a whisper would have been more appropriate.
Q: View on reincarnation- Souls have a choice to be reincarnated- they can choose- who, what, when, and where. For the lessons that they want to learn.
Q: Someone asked a question about animals- being reunited with them- he said "Yes" they are our "Fur Kids."
Q: A woman hears her husband call her, can this happen? He said if you can identify with it. Yes, but I believe he said that it's not like an everyday experience, or occurrence. I think the woman said she hears him all the time.
Q: What form does he see? Does he see an actual person? He see's pictures in his head. His memory's frame of reference. When the information comes through it's easier for him to see the image in your head. It takes a lot of energy to show themselves. He did go on about a story I believe that involved his Aunt. He did actually see someone ( I forget the word I'm looking for right now). Sorry I didn't write this part down. I was really just listening to his story.
He did a reading that was long- but there was a father and mother both passed. The father Johnny passed from colon cancer- had gangreen- and there was an infidelity issue. The mom jumped in and said that she thoroughly enjoyed "HIS" life review. It was a testiment to her connection still, with the father. Then John explained that we all go thorugh a life review.
Q: about having assistance when someone passes. John said that it's not uncommon to have assistance when we're passing.
Q: Difference between a dream and a visit. Dreams fade. You really can't remember them. A visit stays with you, you can remember every detail in the dream even years later.
Q:Another question about dimes- John said that they can be a sign- to check out the date on the coins.
Q:Someone asked a question- I can't understand my own handwritting- about a lot of firsts- John said that the first year is actually not the hardest. The second year is the hardest because you have support from everyone, because it is the first. The second year you're more alone. No cards, or calls. I will try to remember this to hopefully help someone during their harder second year.
Q:Can you feel someone touch you? Yes, you can actually feel someone touch you in a visit. ( I believe this with all my heart, I have had my own experience)
Q: Can a person that has passed prevent another person from passing? Yes- people that have passed can save the life of another person! This was the last question, and one my sister had from over 10 years ago! Funny, we went to the afternoon session, and her father in law came through- We had the gun (toy)- well, a year or so after he passed, my sister was driving up from fl to visit me, and the person she was with was sleeping. She started getting tired, and fell asleep at the wheel! All of a sudden she heard her father in laws yell her name- NANCY!! that was all she heard, but she woke up! She then continued the drive,WIDE AWAKE! She said that she thought he saved her life. I told her I believed he did. She had always wondered if it could have been- and she felt so much comfort to know that he did actually save her life.
It was a wonderful day to say the least~

Oh Silly -

Your notes must have been great! Wow! So much of that resonates with me.

I hear my Mom laugh every once in a while - just like she was in the room with me. I know that it is her 'hanging out". Once or twice she has called my name when I am in a precarious position. My mom had a tough life and consequently so did the rest of us who lived with her.

I think her laughter is to remind me to remember and appreciate the good times and back the negatives of those times off. I often hear her chuckle when I am out of sorts as if to say - "Hey life isn't so bad, you know - lighten up!" I usually end up laughing too for a moment. Thanks, Mom

Anyway thanks for your reflections - they are great vaidations for me!

Peace

Starlasue,
I'm so glad that the post brought you such wonderful memories of your mom! I too have great memories of my Grandmothers laugh. She used to laugh so hard that she would snort, with tears in her eyes of course! She was always laughing, and still I can hear her voice and laughter in the voices of family members, and sometimes out of my own mouth! Cherished memories. She had passed 25 years ago, and still I think about her practically everyday.
I thought about not posting, due to me having short term memory loss (I hear us women can use this excuse when we're pre-menopausal):D But figured that the questions might be of help to someone. I still have the readings, but they are mostly onesided.

ohmigod! Snorting laughter! I do that and so do all of the women in our family. Good Lord, whenever we all get going it sounds like a convention of pigs! Mom and I would get giggling and then my sister sometimes, my niece, and oh my! My poor s-i-l has a fit when we start that!

My firends get a charge out of it. I thought of using 'Suie' for my user name b/c they tease with that when the 'piggy' starts up.

What a day brightener! rofl snort snort rofl snort snort

Peace
