Good point. Nothing could be more "normal" than getting born.  :-)
Putting it in with a "paranormal" prefix suggests that it is
"paranormal", which is quite misleading.  Like whoever decided to put
a "New Age" newsgroup under talk......"religion"......newage.
The "New Age" isn't a religion, wasn't a religion, will never be one.
Reincarnation isn't paranormal, wasn't paranormal, will never be

assistant: From out of the Darkness, Mike Braumuller spoke:
Hello there Mike and Corrina (if you're reading this)...The description I
received from my husband was "channelled Msgs from the Spirit Realms."  The
Spirit Realms is not another network...the spirit realms really means
"spirit realms".  Those of us who have had contact with the spirit realms
can convey messages from those spirits to the network readers, if the
message seems meant for all to read.  Sometimes I've seen people get into
discussion of the hidden meanings in these messages from the spirit realms,
but most of the time they are just the messages sent to those of us that
can receive them.  We post them for all to read.
Personally, I have not had much activity going on from those realms in a
while, but then I've found that when I'm pregnant (like I am now) they do
not bother me.  The spirits seem to know that I have a lot of things on my
mind during that time....but I assume as we get closer to the year 2000
there will be more activity here.

Why?  What do the spirits care about an arbitrary number of earth rotations
after the birth of a minority religion's figurehead?  When I went to Sunday
School they never taught me about any spirits, so if they exist, their
presence proves that what I was taught was bull, and therefore they ought not
to care about the 2,000th christmas?  Ho ho ho.

assistant: Hello Corina,
            I'm sort of new here,too (been lurking for a while, but
there was really nothing to read) I noticed that Mike Braumuller and
Christina Fields are posting, so maybe we can get some discussions
going. I'm not familiar with any "Spirit Realms," as such, but I have
been involved with channeling from "other dimensions", (maybe it's the
same). Channeling, for me, has been an on and off sort of thing, but I'm
convinced there is something too it. It doesn't happen all the time;
there's no predicting it or controlling it. (Maybe Christina Fields will
read this too and give some input here). For many years, I have received
messages from other dimensions through automatic writing and dream-like
experiences. Sometimes they were for other people, but mostly they were
just information about the "Other World." I wrote many of these messages
down but never really shared them much.
        Have you had any experiences, along these lines, you might want
to share or discuss? If so, I'd be interested hearing them.
                        Donald :

            I noticed your post. It sounds like you're into channeling,
as I have been. I get most of my messages through automatic writing.
Have you ever experienced that?  Also, I have received messages in
dream-like experiences. None of them have ever mentioned the "Spirit
Realm," as such, but often speak of the Other World" or other
dimensions. Perhaps it's all the same; I don't know. Anyhow, perhaps, we
can get a dscussion going and swap some information. I'd like to hear
from you.

assistant: Christina Fields wrote in a message to Mike Braumuller:
I get it, those spirt realms, where people who have "gone" went.
So it still is kind of a network, between us the readers, you the ones who
have had contact and those who made contact with you from the realms ;)
How do you receive, and of what kind are those messages?  Do they come in
your dreams, or seances, oija board, I'm getting curious...
Congratulations!
Maybe they aren't as nasty as most movies wanna make us believe :)
Why do you think that? Maybe people are getting more restless because of this
*big* happening, that it generates more psychic energy and this in turn
encourages the spirits to make contact to help us in any way?  I think that
humans have more powers than we know of, but most of us (like me) do not know
how to use them.

When my husband first connected this echo there were messages out the
wahzoo, but lately I haven't really seen much.  Like I said before, I
haven't been getting anything from the spirit realms lately...mostly
because they have other things happening right now.  However, I have a
couple of friends who called me voice the other day.  They are going to be
coming down to see me to open a channel for them.  Apparently there is
something going on...usually when I open a major channel for someone for
whatever reason a lot of little things filter through and some of it is
important, some isn't.   If there is anything important for the whole, I
might post it.  We'll just have to wait and see.
