is it ok to ask my deceased wife for help?

[juliotx]

the other day we were putting out the christmas decorations and i couldnt find some items i knew my wife had put up. i kept saying help me out babe where's the box? it seems i was directed to a spot in the storage shed where i found what i was looking for but it took 2 times and i asked my wife several times for her help. other times i'll be in a situation and i'll say what should i do babe and more times than not i get an answer in some sort of way. i feel she's crossed over but is it ok to ask her for help? or could it be my guide helping me? thank you

[Erin Pavlina]

yes you can ask your deceased relatives for help, and yes they will often help you. Where you get into trouble is if you rely on that advice and can't make a move without consulting them.

[juliotx]

thank you erin.

[tintin]

if youre 'contacting' her or she 'replies' might be that she has not ascended.umm..i don kno if thats good or bad but it is a delay in her soul journey donyathink?love sometimes could mean..letting go.lotsa love n light

[Erin Pavlina]

No, people can ascend and still communicate with us here on Earth.

It's true that sometimes people don't cross over fully but it's not true that if they do cross over they can't communicate with us.

[tboswell1216]

How can you tell if someone has fully crossed over or they are hoovering around?

Can they still hoover around even after they cross over? Like if they have unfinished business, but crossed over before it was settled, then came back to make sure it gets settled (like a sudden break in a police case, or new evidence).

[tintin]

yes erin they do but was wondering if contacting them for everyday issues would not disturb them?um..would not like to interfere in julios process

[Erin Pavlina]

ah yes, right. I wouldn't rely on advice and insight from your deceased relatives on a daily basis, no. That's overkill.

[maxrush]

I have a little confusion, about this matter, maybe you guys might shed some light over it.

I read above that souls even when ascended can still convey messages or even talk to us here in this world. So does that mean that, that the soul's journey is over? Is it not going to take another birth to learn new lessons? If yes then how can it be with us when its already gone into another vessel?

[tintin]

im not sure about this one maybe it has something to do with emotional cords...?a girl during a past life went and saw her grandson of a previous lifetime "today" checked that they were okay and living happily and came back, the grandson was ofcourse old now an she a young girl presently.
also time ceases to exist as we know it in that dimension and the spirit form of our loved one remains intact ummm..im confused too
..i mean what youre saying max is, is there a split in the souls or what ?how can they be contacted when they are already incarnated...right? **scratch scratch** beats me

Yeah tintin, thats exactly my question, just a bit confusing.... maybe some one else knows more abt this... help... someone...?

A soul always keeps part of itself in the non-physical. This is your Higher Self, so the soul isn't split up, it's simply extended upward.

We never really fully incarnate into this body. Which is why it's possible to incarnate into two bodies at the same time. I've encountered this several times.

You see, it's only here on earth we experience time as a linear line, where-as in the non-physical we do not experience time, so from our soul's Point Of View, we can pick and choose which space/time point to incarnate into.

I've done years of research into this area....

[Parthon]

Dave is spot on.

Time only exists and really matters for us mortals. For spirits, or souls, or what you want to call them, the whole timeline exists all at once, and they can travel along it at will. They can choose when and where to incarnate. Souls that are old may have incarnated many times, or not. They can incarnate many times at the same time, but it's not the same "time" for that soul along it's own personal experience path.

Even deeper than that, only the present moment really exists, and the rest of the timeline is collapsed into the present as intwined possibilities. Past and future, and even current incarnations are just woven twists inside the infinite fabric of the present.

If there is only the present, some of the questions don't make sense.

I love the image of a tidy spirit, vacuuming around my house!

So basically The incarnations here in the physical world are just branches say of a tree with the roots some where else? If so, when we use techniques like hypnosis, we access that main root? where the info of all our past lives gets stored?

Yeah got really confused as well as got a lot of clarity when i read Richard bach's ONE blew my mind kind of.

That's a good analogy. Some like to think of a soul as a huge cloud with a lot of tendrils (tornadoes? Nah) hung over the planet. A tree is a better way of thinking about it, except the root system is the Creator, as all souls are essentially part of the Creator.

Which is why when people pray to God, they're really talking to themselves.
