Aliens, NDE and Purple Hebrew Fire Letters ...

 I've often been asked what are the strangest experiences, or phenomenon I've ever had? Have I seen, or been, in contact with aliens? Have I experienced a NDE .... 

What always springs to mind are the following strange experiences, though there are numerous others I could mention as well...

Number one on the list of strange phenomenon, must be the incredible Purple 'Fire Hebrew Letter' or burning 'Yod' that overwhelmed my entire awareness back in the early 2000's. I'd just settled into bed, had closed my eyes, but was still very much awake, when I noticed a small, moving, object in the back of my mind. It moved closer and closer, until I became aware it was of a purplish colour and appeared to be a flame of some kind. It continued to loom closer and closer, getting bigger and bigger until it hovered in front of my eyes. In the next instance the burning 'fire letter' had then entered through the brow of my head and immediately immersed my entire body, from head to toe, in an overwhelming energy of bliss and incredible energetic 'power'. It lasted for only a second or two, but it was an immense experience. Something I've never had since, and something I found the understanding of in the 'Keys Of Enoch' several months later.

Number two was the Near Death Experience or 'actual death experience' that I went through back in late 2014 when I had been taken seriously ill and rushed to a Medical Centre for treatment. I'd collapsed on the floor of the Medical Centre in incredible pain, and had slipped unconscious. I'd immediately witnessed a strobe of light emanating from above my head which had then enveloped me in its light. Immediately, I kind of 'shifted' my awareness from being in incredible pain, to somewhere else entirely. I'd merely entered another state of awareness, one in which I totally forgot the earth plane. I was commencing a journey across a sunlit field when I heard shouting my name. I found myself somehow back in my pain wracked body. For the next twelve weeks I was able to enter this altered state of awareness, at will, to avoid the intense pain from my body, and to also meet up with entities on other dimensions. During those journeys into these other dimensions, I could not fail the notice the incredible bliss, freedom and sense of belonging I experienced there. I know for a fact these were not dreams but projections by my consciousness to other dimensions where I was receiving healing and had a chance to review my life.

Number three was the time I awoke from sleep early one morning back in the mid 1980's to find five beings appear out of thin air in front of me. They were around 4ft 5ins in height and wore what looked like Egyptian masks. There was some kind of spinning/moving apparatus in their stomach area. It was literally as if someone had spray painted the air and made them appear. I understood they must have had the ability to translocate themselves from their reality to ours.

Number four was the time I was literally punched by a male entity that had appeared in the back of my mind one night when I'd just ventured to bed and closed my eyes. It wasn't a dream, I had become aware of this male who had suddenly squared up in front of me and landed a punch .... I felt the impact, all the way through my body, with a jolt ... as the punch appeared to strike an energy field around the top of my head; an energy field that enveloped my entire body like a sheath - Matthew James

Seeing The Matrix Firsthand

Back in the early 90's I underwent an intense Kundalini awakening, potentially the most powerful one I've had to date. I'd had a number of smaller ones between the ages of 5 and 14 which made me 'more frisky than the average school boy' (Frisky - a word that I'd been given as a description by a school girl friend back when I was at high school).

This one was truly the 'mother of all awakenings'. Looking back now I can see how some higher force had carefully planned the entire thing. I also realise why I was shown the vibration I was shown. It's a good 25 years since the event, but it's wonders can still be recalled now. I yearn for another experience like it!

It began with an evening with some good friends, one of which was a bloody good folk singer. After a few hours frequenting the local bars, we went back to one of our friend's home. It was there that we were treated to our friend's singing. Unbeknown to me at the time, my friend was a shaman, and her singing had a very enlightening effect on me. That night when I got home I had an 'out of body' experience like no other. I entered a world I now know to be the world of the matrix. I could see energy lines and dots and energy swirls. It was a very vivid and surreal experience, which at the time I had no understanding of.

For the next week I was on a very high vibration. My comprehension of the world around me was very strange. It wasn't real; it was a virtual world; it was a game. Everything was a game and I was one of the players. I had the ability to think a thought and it began to manifest into the reality a week or so later. It was a very intense energy experience which created an outpouring of incredible energy which others could feel from me.

The predominant memory is the sense that everything around me was a game; that it was all taken seriously as it was what had been programmed into everyone's awareness from an early age. During this state of heightened awareness, because I was aware of the game's play, the perceptions of seriousness no longer applied. But they would once my state of awareness went back into the electronic soup. I could see the matrix, and the matrix could see me. But when you are within the structure it has no awareness of you.

I grew into understanding what was attacking me; had been attacking me by sending negative experiences into my life (And worse); and would continue to attack me in this way throughout my life. It was the matrix itself because I was aware what the matrix is; so I had become a danger to it. In those moments I got a sense of it all. Then I slipped back into the structure and my normal awareness level returned.

That was then, and this is now. I can recall those days and am grateful for that, and other profound experiences, because I have seen beyond this perceived world. I have seen this existence for what it is; I've felt it from the perspective of 'the illuminati' and know how they manipulate this reality using their heightened awareness. I can comprehend that we are much more than the mere fodder that human kind are in this maze.

Hence the reason why I've so adamantly rejected the New Age theories, and all the dross that goes with it. We might feature the accepted theories here on A Light In The Darkness, because people have the right to their own beliefs, and these beliefs play a very necessary core structure to their enlightenment and development. Its up to them to find out for themselves what lies beyond the 'toys'. We therefore, also, offer a look at the viewpoints uncovered whilst in the heightened state of awareness I call 'the game board level' ... and also realisations that I've had since those days.

Dual Nature

I was recalling the moment I left this illusory world without a care or a second thought, back when I was seriously ill. It was when I'd arrived, in agony, at a Medical Centre and collapsed on the floor.

I was in unbearable pain, and my eyes were closed. Moments later I was completely out of pain ... I'd seen a tiny strobe light descend from the ceiling and quickly envelope me. The first touch of this light and my immense pain (All my organs were failing due to a necrotising Pancreas ... and sepsis spreading everywhere) suddenly ceased.

My recollection of the earth plane ceased at that exact moment, just like I'd been transported onto another dimension. There was no going into the light; no relations waiting for me. I just literally entered another dimension, and my awareness was on that dimension with its own thoughts; its own physical body. I literally ceased to even be aware of this earth plane.

The only reason I returned to this earth plane was because a loud voice from this earth plane insisted on calling me back! The moment I recovered awareness of this earth plane all the incredible pain came rushing back.

And for the next 13 weeks whilst hospitalised I found myself jumping between this earth plane of incredible pain, and difficult recovery, and another earth plane where I was in a physical body that was devoid of pain. I found I had a dual awareness, a dual existence .... and I know it cannot be explained by so called 'science' and its old school explanations of the mind playing tricks. I was aware of the shift between the two awarenesses ... and I got to a point where both awarenesses were aware of each other ...

And I have to say this 'dual nature' is still with me to this very day. I can only explain it as having a 100% KNOWING that when I finally leave this earth plane behind ... I will be entering this other dimension and not return back here. Once I make that finally shift ... I know I will totally forget this earth plane. And the knowledge doesn't even scare me.

There will be none of the cliched going into the light, or following the light, or having people waiting for me ... that will not happen. I believe all of that belief/theory is a perceptional conditioning that is programmed into us so we will continue being reconditioned souls ... I'm not claiming I'm exempt from that recycling ... I just know where I'm going when this adventure ends.

'An Interview With Matthew James'

It's nearly time to let you in on the fantastic interview we had with renowned Medium Matthew James. He was the first Medium to choose the description 'renowned' and very soon numerous other Mediums chose to use the word 'renowned' (Coincidence?). 

'MJ', as he points out is a one of his nicknames,  recently talked to us in great depth about his life as a visionary and mediator (He strongly dislikes the term medium and prefers the ancient term 'mediator' instead). 

We met with him in his reading room deep in the heart of 'the old country'. He returned to the UK after an absence of 15 years, in April 2017, and has already re-established himself in 'Albion Magic' as he calls it. One interesting thing he pointed out, early on in the interview, was the fact that here in the Northern Hemisphere energy is raised in a clockwise direction; circles are opened in the same direction too. However, in the Southern Hemisphere, everything is the other way round. After decades of raising energy, commencing at 12 o'clock and moving round to 6 o'clock and back round to 12 o'clock, he found it weird doing it the other way round. We didn't know that. Even water goes down the plug hole in the opposite direction to here, apparently. 

Anyway, MJ met with us in this reading room, amid shelves of crystals, occult books, incense, and dozens of decks of Oracle Cards and Tarot Cards - the most intriguing fact being he has several sets of his own oracle cards, The Light Of Truth Oracle Cards. Amazing cards, amazing artwork, amazing talent as he devised everything himself - the concept, the artwork, the meanings - everything. 

He presented us with his really old guard of cards; cards which are now really faded and worn; very dog-eared. He tells us the decks are over 30 years old and have helped him to divinate for well over 100,000 'readings' in their time. Amazing! He comes across as very 'ordinary' with no special clothes or manner, until he opens up and starts talking about the occult and divination. Then his blue eyes seem to light up and go a much lighter shade of blue than they were before. He becomes very intense and serious. His demeanour becomes something else ... and what he revealed was incredible ....

After everything that has happened to him since his first 'reading' in 1981, he has become quite a private person; rarely sharing his innermost knowledge to anyone. We found ourselves there are concentric circles of information he reveals. The more he trusts, the more he reveals. He let us know that he went totally to ground in the last years of being in Australia, due to copycats stealing his ideas and taking the credit for his own hard earned methods and knowledge. In the end he decided enough was enough. He no longer posts his 'inimitable works' on social media. He limits what he reveals. So we were very surprised when he agreed to these interviews with us.

Next up, part one of the transcripts from 'An Interview With Matthew James' ....

'An Interview With Matthew James'

Matthew James has been a practising Medium & Clairvoyant for over 30 years. He began undertaking 'readings' and 'live demonstrations' back in the late 1980's ... at a time when the spiritual industry was totally different to it is now.

Back in the 1980's there was almost a prohibition on spiritualism; it was a taboo subject for many people; research material wasn't readily available - local libraries and occasional new age shops were the only places to gain an insight into the subject. Information was scarce, and places to meet up with people of similar mind, were few and far between. It was seen as a huge joke, and laid Matthew James open to constant mockery for being into spirituality.

Matthew James began at a time when it wasn't 'trendy' to be a medium; it wasn't something he chose to do, indeed it was thrust upon him. He was very reluctant to pursue the direction, gaining major ridicule from family, friends and work colleagues. He was one of the first male mediums in his area at the time, and was to some degree a pioneer of the arts he now practices.

Very few, if any, of the new breed of 'psychic mediums' will be able to comprehend the 'world of spirituality' back in the 1980's without the internet and social media for connection. Nor can they really appreciate the soul destroying hard work it took back then to become accepted in the spiritual field.

Coming soon, we have an extensive series of transcripts from an interview with Matthew James explaining what it was like, for him, back then to develop as a medium. We also gain some insights into his methods of communication , because in his own words 'I'am my own guide, and always have been. No supernatural being has ever presented itself to me, and said I am your guide. I have made all the connections himself  ... so its on my own head if the info is wrong or right. I can't blame it on aninvisible guide for getting it wrong.'

Over the coming weeks we will be adding part of the transcript on here ... so watch this space.

The Gallery Of The Rotten Eggs

"It's quite apt I've called this chapter 'The Gallery Of The Rotten Eggs" because between them it is quite an exhibition. As you will see the rotten eggs are a despicable troupe of caustic tongues. Totally fooling the public they are supposed to serve with their appropriate words of 'love and light'.

But behind the scenes these ladies and gentlemen despise anyone who has more of a genuine than them (Which isn't hard as they barely have an ounce of genuine ability between them).

Several of them went out of their way to prevent me getting a stall, or stage performances, at the bigger expos in Australia. Between them they concocted lies to have me pushed into the background during the first round of a popular live Psychic TV show.

One 'lady' had my planned live show in a country town cancelled by visiting the town herself to undertake a workshop, with a stolen contact of mine, during which time she defamed my name to such an extent that nobody wanted anything to do with me!

During a visit to the UK in 2016, I was visited by a rather nasty Englishman, who had the sole intention of disrupting my day of readings ... it turns out an equally nasty British 'psychic' who lives in Canberra had contacted this gentleman, when she learned of my trip to the UK, and organised for him to be as disruptive as possible. This British 'Psychic' ran a so called 'Spiritualist Church' and has a reputation for being downright ruthless and nasty with other psychics.

Another 'psychic' would appear to be brilliantly accurate with her information for her clients when in truth she had been privy to personal information prior to reading. Her Sister was found to have been speaking to a friend of mine prior to her reading, and had then gone to this 'psychic' prior to the reading divulging all the information she'd gained from the conversation. The lady 'psychic' had then just used the information her Sister had obtained, to make herself appear very accurate!

Then there was the male 'Psychic' who discovered I was set to go on a country wide tour with a very well known Medium. He decided to get in contact with the the Medium's Tour Manager (Who is a good friend of ours) to not only take over the tour organising, but also to place him on the tour instead of myself. This same 'Psychic' also destroyed my plans to be involved in another series of events that involved two Hollywood Celebrities, despite the fact I was part and parcel of the official team ... his jealousy was so extreme I was completely cut out of these events.

The rogues outlined in this chapter are real people, and none of my accounts are exaggerations ... this is how it is ... and what despicable tactics to control and bully other psychics (Not just myself) are really like.

Extract taken from 'Feet In Both Worlds' by Matthew James

Canberra Psychic Medium Matthew James

Matthew James is asleep when he suddenly starts having what feels like a heart attack. He finds himself gasping for air as pain grips his chest. It feels real but it's not.

When the pain subsides, he recognises the feelings belonged to someone who had died and he was experiencing what they went through in the moments of their death.

As a medium and clairvoyant, Mr James says his experience of feelings like this aren't unusual, or even typically as dramatic. He's once had a professional chef inside his head, instructing him on how to make garlic prawns.

'Now what you do is, you take it off the heat and you turn the pan over and you let the garlic continue to cook in the heat, then you take the garlic out, then you put the prawns in,' he recalls the chef telling him.

It's only later that day he discovered the chef was a client's late father, and his signature dish was garlic prawns.

To have some kind of the belief in the paranormal is not that uncommon. Many of us will have seen something we can't quite explain, or know someone who has...read more>>>...

Question Me: "How Did It All Begin?" Part 2

I was asked recently 'how did all the psychic stuff begin for you? What were the signs and what kind of life did it create for you?'

In this second of a three part article, I will explain how I began to develop my psychic ability ....

In truth I have always been interested in ESP, UFO's and paranormal matters. It's always been an integral part of my life. A natural essence and vein of interest since an early age. But it wasn't until I left sixth form college that life began to mould itself into a vehicle for my ability to begin to nurture itself.

In my late teens I had a close friend who had family connections to true blood gypsies. It was my friend's Mother Linda who first encouraged me to start developing my psychic abilities. My friend sadly left the UK to go to live with her Father in the States, but I kept in contact with her Mother. I first discovered my innate ability as a Medium, when I was asked to investigate the presences in one of her rental properties. The experience was extremely intense with a number of unexplained occurrences happening in the house as a result of my connection with the presences.

I was nearly 20 at the time, and I recall this as the first time I had used my abilities to purposely communicate as a Medium. I'd also astounded myself by clearing seeing images and faces in a crystal ball I'd been asked by Linda to experiment with ... in order to prove to me I did indeed have Clairvoyant abilities! My playing card party piece developed whilst at Sixth Form only added to further evidence I was indeed ready for some kind of psychic development.

I was introduced to the owners of The Psychic Centre in Blackpool, which was run by a local Medium called Paula Paradaema. Paula had a shop at the time, from where she undertook her private readings. I'd met Paula earlier in the week after being urged by Linda to make my way to Paula's shop to meet her. I'd then decided to attend a public demonstration night at her Psychic Centre later in the week.

I remember clearly the first night I joined the centre. I sat at the back of the club near to Paula's husband Vinny who was on the door taking the monies from people who were arriving for the evenings entertainment. I was rather uncomfortable and out of my depth. There was a young lady called Yvette on stage and she was undertaking a demonstration of Psychometry in front of around 100 people in the audience. I'd only just sat down after buying a drink from the club bar, when I became aware Paula was trying to get my attention! She was standing on the stage beside Yvette and was urging me to go and join her on the stage! I was felt very self conscious and not sure of what she wanted me to do ... so I made my onto the stage ...

In front of the audience, Paula explained that she wanted me to handle some of the jewellery that was on a tray in front of me and describe was I was feeling or seeing. Now bear in mind I'd never even heard of psychometry before at this time (I'd been in front of a live audience ... years earlier I'd joined a Drama School and had ended up in front of over 300 people in the Blackpool Opera House but that is another story ... ).

Anyway, I remember picking up the first item of jewellery and just opening my mouth to describe what I was feeling and seeing. Without a word, Paula then placed the item back down in the tray and asked me to try some more jewellery. She asked me to try a total of three items of jewellery. When I'd finished she then asked for the owners of the jewellery who were in the audience to validate what I had been saying. You can imagine my shock and horror when all THREE jewellery owners could validate totally what I had been saying!!! The audience roared with appreciation and I made my way to the back of the room in bewilderment.

It came as no surprise that I joined the Development Classes and Paula became my True Teacher and Mentor at that time ...! (Matthew James 7th August 2012)

Feet In Both Worlds

"Looking back now at my early years, there was no way that I would have considered myself psychic in anyway. In truth I would not have known what the word meant. However in saying that I probably would have been able to spell the word! I shocked everyone once with a sponsored school spelling. Neighbours and friends had been pledging 50p and £1 per word thinking I wouldn’t spell many. There had also been the odd £2 and £5 per word. I managed to spell over 130 of the 150 words that were on the sheets of paper during the competition and some of them were ‘big’ words as well! I ended up being the higher sponsor of the school for that competition!!

If I’d been specifically asked by someone during those years, if I was psychic, my response probably would have been no as I would have thought everyone was the same as me in the way that they thought and the way that they saw the world. I even would probably have thought that extended to the ‘imaginary friends’ I had and perhaps even to the supernatural old man who was a regular visitor to my bedroom." - extract taken from Feet In Both Worlds written by Matthew James

It came as no surprise that I joined the Development Classes and Paula became my True Teacher and Mentor at that time ...! (Matthew James 7th August 2012)

Fire Letter Realisation

Fire Letter Apparition by Matthew James 

On the evening of Sunday 25th February 2007  (Click on the link) I experienced one of the most phenomenal 'supernatural' experiences of this life. It was completely overwhelming and completely unexpected. There had been no warning or pre-knowledge of the event. 

Moments after I'd closed my eyes, in readiness for sleep, I became aware of a moving apparition in my mind's eye. It was tiny at first, but as I watched the image, it began to grow bigger and bigger in size. I perceived it was moving towards me from somewhere. 

I could see that the apparition was a pattern formed from one or more Hebrew letters. The letters where clearly purple in colour. The letters were surrounded by purple flames. 

Then when I perceived the image was directly in front of me I felt, I actually felt, the image enter my mind/consciousness via my pineal/pituitary gland (What we term The Third Eye). From that moment I became totally overwhelmed by the apparition. It had intense heat. Intense energy. Intense power. It completely overshadowed my awareness. For those precious moments it had entered my consciousness, my entire being was filled with the energy and fire of the fire letter apparition.

Then as quickly as it arrived, it was gone. I felt energised by the visitation but also saddened by the disconnection from the energy. I felt no fear. I KNEW in that instance that my understanding since a child, of external forces & life beyond the human vibration, had been confirmed. It was a deliberate act by something EXTERNAL to me. This had not been a figment of my own imagination. It was something intense and something very significant. 

It was many months later that I obtained my own copy of The Keys Of Enoch. This had not been planned. Up until that point I did not even know the book existed. We'd ventured to Taupo on the North Island Of New Zealand, and had visited a favourite New Age Shop of ours there. I had merely been rummaging through a pile of books in an area of the shop, and chanced upon this strange looking white book. The look of sheer shock on the shop keeper's face indicated something of significance had taken place. He'd only purchased the book the day before and knew it was for someone. That someone was obviously me.

It was weeks later that I came upon the first notions of the Fire Letters. Reading the texts closer I made the startling discovery that I'd been attuned by one of these Fire Letters! But there was more to it than that. I was inadvertently linked to the author and the collection of the Fire Letters when I was a little over 2 years old! His account of his astral travels at the start of the book paralleled my own journey that had befallen me when I was around 3 years of age. Somehow that profound memory had been imprinted in my memory.

Researching the Keys Of Enoch further I came upon the following passage: "This process of reception is begun by the projection of a brightly coloured Yod form of Light upon the face of the subject so as to trigger the necessary chemical combinations which activate the mind to receive the ideographs of communication" . This was exactly what it had been with me - a projection of brightly coloured light upon my face'.

And also: "The letters of the Living Light must first be seeded into the sub-conscious during sleep." How many other of the fire letters have been projected to me during sleep? This is my first and last conscious awareness of one.

Then I found the most profound reference to the Fire Letters of all. These was indeed a coding that coincided with the PURPLE letter I'd seen. Blue and red when combined become the colour purple: "The Brotherhood use the Sacred Fire Letters I-EE to code a BLUE-RED embodiment". From this I began to comprehend the profound effect this fire letter was going to have on me. Basically my DNA-RNA, which is crystalline and can transmit/receive light energy, had been reprogrammed. My DNA had been altered by some eternal source to the an I-EE embodiment. Communications are transmitted on a two-way basis through light. Our primary light being that of the sun. 

A further reference explains the Embodiment as: "The Brotherhoods of Light activate the sacred fire letters by projecting a burning YOD from their channel of consciousness in the higher realms to a given human circulatory system. 

The colour of the Yod dispatched opens up a fifth circulatory system of light in the body which allows all chakras to share the same pulse of transfigured light so that even the lower chakras are transformed by the higher light." 

My entire perception HAS been changed. I'd been challenged to notice any different re-alignments or anything significant since my own personal Sacred Fire Letter Embodiment. I've scoured the internet and not found any reference to this experience, or to anyone else who'd had the same experience. Something had seemingly singled me out to receive this embodiment which was so clearly described in the Keys Of Enoch.

It was only recently that I began to understand what has taken place. I look towards the strength of communications I receive on a daily basis, and realise, it is as a result of this embodiment that I can communicate with other vibrations at such a difficult time. My DNA-RNA has been hot wired to apparently counteract any of the distractions or distortions that are active at this time. I know also I am not the only one who has experienced this embodiment. Effectively, the vibration of my physical body has been increased, which has made me more aware of the dimensions around me. This is a significant milestone in my life. Indeed ... I do feel and see more than I did before. It's taken me until today to process this Sacred Fire Letter Embodiment. Only now can I begin to make real sense of the how and the why. Indeed, I can now look at the Keys Of Enoch with a greater understanding. It has been written in a way that it can only be truly understood once a mind has been subjected to a Fire Letter Embodiment (Or two or three).

One other thing is clear. Since this embodiment, my awareness of falseness and illusion are that much stronger.  Further reference to pages of The Keys Of Enoch explain the intention to improve the communications between worlds and levels of awareness via minds embodied by the Sacred Fire Letters. There is also a reference to something that I term 'The Art Of Knowing' which is one of my own spiritual principles: "this divine language is also the inductive linkage to the still small voice within the body which advises you on the read day-to-day decisions in the world so that your consciousness will not err in executing the will of the higher vibrations". © Copyright Matthew James 13th May 2013 (Except excerpts from The Keys Of Enoch by J.J.Hurtak.)

"Taught By One Of The Ancient Ones"

"This is no ordinary life story that is about to unfold before your eyes. It is the story of someone who was taught by one of ‘the ancient ones’ from an early age, and has suffered the consequences of that calling all the way through his life. Much of what is recollected here is not myth. It is documented to the best of the ability of he who has experienced these situations. Where his memory of events is dull, and shady, there will be testaments from others that can remember the events. 

There is no question that this life has been filled with joy and wonder; with experiences of sights and sounds that the average cannot begin to imagine ... but it has also been filled with the opposite experiences too ... sorrow, despair, upset, misery, extreme sadness. All polarity of experience will be covered in this manuscript. Again, to the best of his ability to remember these things. 

What will be apparent, almost from the start, is the influence of the ‘other world’ or ‘worlds’ in his life. It is the ONLY explanation for so much of the occurrences in this life. Indeed, it goes without saying, as a pupil of the mystic arts, from the age of three, that he has always been totally accepting of the influence of the other world. Though his ‘eye’ has seemingly always ‘been open’ ... there have been many passages in his life which are best described as ‘typically mortal.’ However, looking back on these events, he has always been able to see the lesson or teaching presented by these periods in his life. 

However, before we proceed any further, we are not going to delve or descend into the standard or ‘typical’ spiritual life story. Meaning, we are not going to be dealing with ‘spirit guides’ and their input in his life. He doesn’t acknowledge ‘guides’ in the conventional sense of the word. He acknowledges other world influences, yes, but he has always refused to acknowledge ‘the imaginable and the unprovable’. Much of what he has been taught or shown by ‘the ancient ones’ has been in the form of direct thought transfers (Or direct data downloads) and visions in daydreams and meditations. 

It began as a series of astral projections at the tender age of three. These adventures are still very much there in the back of his mind. They are memories and insights which have been etched on his subconscious all through his life. They provide him with the basic backcloth of ‘what life really is’ and ‘what the spirit world really is’. His insights and personal philosophies are very much based on these strong recollections. So much so, he has been deemed very much the ‘odd ball’ throughout this life...."

Feet In Both Worlds - 'How Did It All Start For You?'

I’ve often been asked ‘how did it all start for you? When was the defining moment in your life with regard to your spiritual path?’ It is answer I can give fairly easily, as I can actually recall that moment; though I didn’t realise it at the time! The event in question occurred back in the 1980's when I was very much ‘one of the lads’ ... my interests were firmly on cars, rock bands, real ale etc and certainly not focussed on spiritual development ...!

It was a Tuesday night in Blackpool, Lancashire, UK. I made my first visit to The New Age & Psychic Centre on Princes Parade close by to the Grand Metropole Hotel. I’d been invited along by a mutual friend who’d imparted those immortal words ‘you have psychic ability’ a few days earlier, then had spoken to me about Paula Paradaema who ran the Psychic Centre. Tuesday night was a show night, which meant there was always a demonstration medium on stage. I chose this particular night to venture into a different world to my own. A world which would very soon become my own too! But I did not know that when I first arrived. I had no idea what was going to unfold later that night when I ordered a pint from the club’s bar. I still had no idea when I sat rather nervously at the back of the room, beside Paula’s husband Vinny who was at the door, dealing with the tickets and admissions.

My life changed about 20 minutes into the show. It changed when Paula drew the audience’s attention to me at the back of the room, and gesticulated for me to join her and the guest medium on the stage! I felt like a rabbit caught in headlights. I had no chance to turn and run out of the exit doors ... instead I made my way up onto the stage with shaking legs and dry mouth. I felt totally out of place when all eyes of the audience were on me.

Paula introduced the young Medium on stage as Yvette and explained to me how ‘psychometry’ worked. I was spellbound as she pointed to a tray of people’s jewellery which lay on a table in front of me. Paula explained what I was to do ... ‘choose an item of jewellery, hold it in your hand and then describe what you see or feel’.

Who? Me? I’ve never done this sort of thing before!

The rest of the evening is, as they say, history ... I recall ‘saying something’ which related to three items of jewellery. Having never had any formal training as to the how, or the why, I blew my own socks off that I was able to get anything!

Each owner of the items of jewellery were then asked to stand up and explain if they could understand anything I had said to them. I was slightly bewildered when each person in turn nodded their heads and explain the accuracy of what I had said to them.

I was still in a state of bewilderment when people from the audience were milling around me after the evening, letting me know just how accurate I had been ... members of the development group, who in the coming years would become close friends, introduced themselves to me. It was then Paula dropped her first bombshell. The first of many I hasten to add ... ‘I was told to watch out for Matthew about 12 months ago. I knew you’d come, and I knew you’d be able to do what you just did’ ....

A Word on 'Bi-Location'

"It was an inspirational insight which gave me the sense of having my ‘feet in both worlds’ ... the realisation I hold a simultaneous conversation with my client, here on the earth plane, and also with the communicators from the other world.

It made perfect sense; gave me great clarity, and explained the reason why I have been ‘guide-less’ since I began this spiritual sojourn all those decades ago.

I know I go to them ... they don’t come to me ... I wander their world whilst I sit (Or stand) before a client or an audience. I almost always see a shadowy overlay to my vision of the earth plane when I gaze out through human eyes. Sometimes the overlay is almost a perfect carbon copy of the room I’m sitting in at the time. But, in other instances, the overlay is somewhere entirely different - more often than not it is the locality where the communicator is at the moment I am holding the consultation.

It was a rather odd sensation to experience at first ... I was unsure, and a little dubious, as to what was taking place ... but now many years later, I understand perfectly the process. I term it ‘BI-LOCATION’. Being in two localities at the same time. My physical body is stuck firmly here on Planet Earth ... whilst my light body has journeyed to the ‘back of spiritual beyond’ to make contact with an occupant of that world. I am consciously aware of being in these two dimensions at the same time.

It makes the need for guides obsolete, as it is myself who is receiving the information directly."
