Signs

Conveying the Message

They were known as the four C’s: Mom (Carla), Dad (Chris), and their two kids (Calder and Caleb). However, tragedy hit when Calder was swimming and was fatally electrocuted by a faulty pool light.

Suddenly, Carla lost her seven-year-old son. However, she had a feeling that this might not be the end. Despite questioning her sanity, in the weeks following Calder’s passing, it seemed as though her son was attempting to communicate with her.

For instance, dragonflies began appearing frequently. One day, while Carla was driving and feeling emotionally distressed, a small dragonfly suddenly appeared inside her car. It flew around, catching her attention, then landed next to her and stayed for the remainder of the trip, refusing to leave through the window. When Carla got out of the car, the dragonfly followed her, circled a few more times, and then flew away.

It seemed significant, but Carla wasn’t certain. After that incident, dragonflies frequently appeared, both outdoors and indoors. During a visit to her sister-in-law, their conversation was interrupted when she was informed that a dragonfly had been sitting on her head the entire time.

During this period, a common acquaintance suggested to Carla that she might find insight through a reading with the author. It was during this encounter that the significance of the peculiar sensations and signs began to unfold. Upon meeting Carla, the author immediately sensed her son’s vibrant energy. When Calder was tragically electrocuted, his energy transitioned to the Other Side. When departed souls communicate with Jackson, they manifest in a distinctive manner. Jackson perceives them as tiny points of light forming on a small mental screen.

Jackson explains that it’s typical for departed souls to employ animals as messengers. For instance, the Aztecs perceived hummingbirds as divine servants entrusted with intricate tasks, such as conveying blessings between individuals. Similarly, Native Americans view hummingbirds as creatures possessing unique healing powers, capable of imparting love and good fortune to those they encounter. According to Jackson, hummingbirds, dragonflies, and various other earthly animals possess the capacity to transport and deliver messages from the Other Side.

During Jackson’s interaction with Calder, she learned about the significance of the four C’s and that the family had intentions of embarking on a trip in the near future. Carla affirmed the accuracy of this information. Calder intended to convey a message to his mother during the trip, reassuring her of his presence. This message would manifest as a clear encounter between Carla and a deer.

Carla pondered the significance of this encounter and how it might manifest. As it turned out, Carla, Chris, and Caleb were indeed planning a significant trip to England. However, just before setting off on that journey, they impulsively decided to take a weekend getaway to the Florida Keys. While driving there, Carla was asleep in her seat when they passed by a small group of key deer—an endangered subspecies unique to the Florida Keys. Although Chris tried to wake her up to witness the sight, Carla missed it, leaving her quietly disheartened for the remainder of the weekend.

However, the true message didn’t reveal itself until they were leaving the Keys. They stopped the car near the No Name Pub for Chris to use the restroom. It was then that Carla spotted the deer, standing near a line of shrubs. She cautiously stepped out of the car and approached it, leaving Caleb inside. Remarkably, the deer also began to approach quietly from the opposite direction. By the time Chris emerged from the pub, Carla and the deer were only about ten feet apart. Chris captured the moment in a photo, but Carla and the deer continued to draw nearer. Carla reached out her hand, and the deer delicately pressed its nose into her palm. Chris and Caleb observed the encounter in complete silence as Carla and the deer locked eyes for what seemed like an endless moment. The message was conveyed. Then, the deer turned away and departed slowly.

Carla needed reassurance, so she asked her husband if what happened was real. He assured her that it was undoubtedly real. However, when she returned to the car, tears welled up in her eyes. But these tears weren’t of sorrow; they stemmed from a different emotion. They were tears of relief, knowing that she hadn’t overlooked Calder’s message and feeling a profound sense that her son was still present with them. The unity of the four C’s would endure.

The Marriage Melody

Creatures aren’t the sole conduit for messages from the afterlife. Electronic devices are also highly receptive to the residual energy we retain when transitioning to the other side.

Numerous individuals whom Jackson has conversed with have encountered indications varying from sparks emerging from an unoccupied electrical outlet to enigmatic text messages received from inactive phone numbers.

A notable account, ironically, originates from a skeptic, Michael Shermer, who is the founder of The Skeptics Society, dedicated to probing pseudoscientific and paranormal assertions. Shermer’s skeptical disposition faced its most formidable trial as he prepared to marry his wife Jennifer in 2014. Before the wedding, Jennifer lamented that her grandfather Walter had passed away and wouldn’t be present to escort her down the aisle.

Jennifer also felt sorrow over the loss or damage of several family heirlooms during transportation. However, amid this loss, one item endured: her grandfather’s vintage Philips transistor radio from the 1970s. Despite Michael’s persistent efforts to repair the radio, it remained non-functional. Eventually, he resigned to its fate and stored it in a drawer in their bedroom for safekeeping.

On their wedding day, Jennifer’s yearning to feel her grandfather’s presence grew stronger. Feeling somber, the couple retreated to their bedroom for a moment of solace. Suddenly, they were startled by the sound of soft, romantic music filling the room. Surprised, they realized there was no stereo present. They exchanged puzzled glances, wondering about the source of the music.

Jennifer opened the drawer and discovered that the music was indeed emanating from her grandfather’s transistor radio. Remarkably, the radio played continuously throughout the night but ceased the next day after the wedding concluded. Since then, it has never functioned again. Shermer acknowledges that if this had happened to someone else, he might have offered various explanations. However, being present himself, he concedes that the radio began playing only after Jennifer expressed her sense of longing. This left her with a strong impression that her grandfather was present with her on that significant day.

Perpetually Linked through Energy

Energy is an enigmatic force, yet an intrinsic aspect of existence. It permeates everything, including ourselves, and is omnipresent.

In essence, matter is comprised of atoms, which consist of protons, neutrons, and electrons. This concept aligns with Einstein’s assertion that “Mass and energy are different forms of the same thing…” encapsulated in his renowned equation, E = mc^2.

One might perceive humans as entities housing a soul. However, it might be more accurate to consider us as souls inhabiting a body. When our physical form ceases to operate, our energy doesn’t simply disappear; it transitions to the Other Side – a realm in the universe where our spiritual energy resides. This realm, characterized by pure light and love, serves as the interconnected home to all of us, and it is where we will eventually reunite.

Our bodies are constrained by limitations, as our five senses are only capable of perceiving a limited range. While the Other Side exists just beyond our sensory reach, numerous animals possess heightened abilities to see, hear, and smell, allowing them to perceive the Other Side with greater awareness or in different ways than humans can.

Jackson often expresses the idea that each person has their own Team of Light watching over them. This notion is akin to the concept of guardian angels. It could involve departed loved ones keeping an eye on you or simply the positive energy of the universe guiding you along the right path.

This could explain why a loved one might make contact. Their intention isn’t to see you suffer; rather, they aim to offer solace and reassure you of the continued connection between you. At times, they may also be gently nudging you toward a positive path.

After Susan’s husband passed away, she felt lost and deeply saddened for a while. However, Marc found ways to communicate with her. Since his passing, he consistently showed Susan rainbows, symbolizing that she was on the right path and indicating his presence nearby. Susan encountered rainbows wherever she looked, often even witnessing double rainbows.

However, one of the rainbows was man-made. It was a massive rainbow constructed over a parking lot at Sony Studios in Hollywood, where Marc had been employed. Unbeknownst to Susan, the creation of this rainbow was the reason behind the delay in organizing a memorial service for Marc. Spanning 188 feet in length, Susan was completely amazed when it was eventually revealed.

Nevertheless, there was something even more remarkable about the interaction between Jackson and Susan. Marc expressed a desire for Susan to move forward and find happiness in a new relationship, but he indicated that it would take approximately four and a half years for this relationship to materialize. Additionally, it wasn’t solely Marc orchestrating this; he was collaborating with Don, a departed friend who had passed away years earlier and was married to Barbara, one of Susan’s acquaintances.

For more than three years, Susan’s acquaintance with David evolved gradually after being introduced by an architect friend. They developed a close friendship, but it wasn’t until a year later that their relationship deepened. It was only then that Susan discovered, during a conversation with Barbara, that David was actually an old friend of her late husband Don. It was a realization that struck her profoundly—four and a half years had passed since Marc’s message, and it became clear that Marc and Don, from beyond, had collaborated to guide Susan towards happiness. The revelation was truly remarkable.

The Communication of Signs

Jackson possesses numerous additional anecdotes akin to those of Susan and Marc, Jennifer’s grandfather, and Carla and Calder. Regrettably, we cannot delve into all of them within this main concept, but we can offer some advice on elevating your personal energy and becoming more receptive to such signs.

If you’re seeking a signal from a departed loved one, it could be as straightforward as making a request. Seriously. Position yourself in a serene environment, free of phones and other disturbances. Request something distinctive, such as a purple giraffe, or something deeply connected to the individual you’re attempting to connect with. Perhaps they had a beloved song or a passion for collecting porcelain penguins. Choose that as your sign.

Ultimately, there are methods to boost your personal energy, enhancing your sense of being interconnected. You’re likely familiar with the sensations of positive and negative energy. You’ve experienced the impact of encountering someone radiating negative energy—the atmosphere of the room shifts. While we’re all subject to these fluctuations, it’s also within our capacity to uplift our energy in positive directions and maintain it.

Art serves as a potent tool for altering energy. If you’re feeling low, consider the effect of visiting a museum, attending a play, immersing yourself in music, or enjoying a compelling movie.

Expressing gratitude holds significant value. Acknowledge signs when they appear, express gratitude for simple gestures like receiving your coffee from a barista, and actively spread joy. Elevate the energy of those around you whenever possible. Cultivate a habit of gratitude by listing the things you appreciate. Start your day by focusing on the positives rather than dwelling on negatives. Incorporate gratitude into your daily routine.

Lastly, it’s vital to underscore the significance of sleep. In contemporary times, sleep is often viewed as a mere inconvenience that impedes productivity. However, it plays a crucial role in our overall well-being and interconnectedness. Sleep isn’t solely about recharging our energy; it’s also a period during which we can synchronize with the Other Side, receiving messages and insights.

In essence, positive energy involves self-care: prioritizing sleep, maintaining physical activity, eating healthily, and offering assistance to others whenever possible. Our interconnectedness stems from sharing the same energy, and by aiding and motivating others, we honor this connection and acknowledge our unique role in the incredible universe we inhabit.

Final Overview

Signs surround us constantly. When we transition to the Other Side, our physical form may fade, but our energy endures. Departed loved ones can still guide us and accompany us as we navigate our path. Even if you haven’t consciously noticed, signs from beyond may have already touched your life. Embracing them can be as effortless as heightening your awareness, altering your energy, and recognizing the interconnected nature of existence.
