A Visit with Grandma in Spirit

A montage of family photos of my grandma spanning the 1940's through the 1990's.

I had a cucumber in the fridge that needed a purpose. When I was a kid, my grandma used to make simple cucumber salad. It was a little creamy, a little sweet, and a little tangy, but I couldn’t remember how to put it together. I let it go and let my mind work on it in the background.

The next day, while meditating, I felt a sudden download. “Sour cream, sugar, vinegar, salt, and pepper.” Grandma’s recipe came through loud and clear, and then so did she. We met in mediumship.

She first sent proof in the form of images of her kitchen. The chair she sat in. The counter where everyone else sat. The always raw and sometimes green or yellow onion sandwiches she used to eat for lunch. Then she showed me her beautiful garden.

The garden was her pride and joy. We ate many meals from her garden. And because of her excellent food preservation skills, we ate her home-grown food year-round. The garden at the farm was huge, over an acre. In her old age she moved to town and had the best garden in the neighborhood.

In mediumship grandma showed me her garden in town and then showed me my indoor garden. I knew she meant it with love and a sense of connection. I have traced our ancestors, and we have many farmers of all sorts in our family tree. She was acknowledging that by showing the similarities.

I cried and cried as we spent our time together. Her love poured through me. Old pain and sadness were released through my tears. I felt so very loved with that good grandma love.

The energy shifted and, in the distance, I heard, “You are so strong. You are so strong. You can do this.” She drew nearer to me, and I saw her face. I felt her hands on my cheeks. She repeated, “You are so strong. You are so strong. You can do this.”

Her energy began to fade, and I heard one last word, “patience”. Then she was gone. I sat for a while and processed the energy and messages of strength and patience. I cried and felt her love, wisdom, and abundance. And I expressed much gratitude for the beautiful blessing of spending time with my grandma in spirit.

We have connected before, often in a group, or alongside other members of my family in spirit. But this time it was just us, and her energy was stronger than ever. Her proof clear and strong. The love and encouragement were exactly what I needed. That and, apparently, patience.

The path has been hard lately. The new timeline’s energy is intense, and I’ve been tired. My visit with grandma in Spirit was almost as good as actually sitting with her in her kitchen eating her sweet pickles, or her strawberry rhubarb jam on fresh baked bread, or her cucumber salad.

I’m grateful for this spiritual awakening path. I’m grateful to be blessed with visits from family in spirit. They help me to stay strong and patient. And they remind me that I am never alone.

I pray that you feel supported on your spiritual journey.

The image today is mine and is of a few old family photos of my grandma.

I’m grateful you’re here.

Be well, beautiful soul,
