✨ Ancestors, Energy & Sacred Spaces

Urey Look Out, PA ~ May 2025

A Journey Through Intuition, Healing & the Unseen

There was something both comforting and unsettling to me over two decades ago about ancestral connection and healing. ✨

After my awakening and diverse studies, I gradually became highly sensitive to energies — my own energy’s ebb and flow, my family members’, friends’, things, spaces, and places.

Even being around a computer could become a challenge if I was not centered and energetically strong. Honestly, I was both annoyed and intrigued by these occurrences at the same time.

⚡ Everything Is Energy

Science, Spirit & the Mystery of the Soul

Physics studies were definitely not my cup of tea ☕️, but fundamentally I knew that everything is made of energy.

E=mc2E=mc2

Albert Einstein described that “everything is energy,” referring to mass-energy equivalence. This states that mass is simply a highly concentrated form of energy. This is also supported by the law of conservation of energy, which states that energy cannot be created or destroyed — only transformed from one form into another.

If so, perhaps our soul cannot simply be eliminated or expire the way the body can. The eternality of the soul is quite the mystery… 🌙

🕯️ Antiques, Energy & Empathic Awareness

Learning to Feel Beyond the Physical

I recall when I began feeling physically sick around certain antiques. I became very clear that some of these objects were energetically polluted in some way — that they had absorbed dense or negative energies connected to the people around them or the places they had resided in.

I did not fully understand how that happened, but I knew they did not feel healthy or acceptable for me to be around.

I was pretty new to this phenomenal world of metaphysics. I was a sponge in the form of learning, and as an empath, I was also absorbing both the beautiful and the not-so-beautiful energies around me.

I was in what I call “the lab.” 🧪

I was experimenting and utilizing my intuition while weaving in logic to make sense of it all, so that I could stay healthy and whole — mind, body, and spirit.

🔮 Clearing the House, Clearing the Past

Lessons From Two Extraordinary Psychics

At one point, I hired two phenomenal psychics to clear my house. It took many hours and wow… I learned so much from them.

What amazed me even more was that years later, I would be hired by clients to do the same for their homes and businesses.

These two women were kind, intelligent, and worked beautifully together. They had clear insights about each room of the house, the energetic disturbances present, and in some cases, why those disturbances existed.

There had been tremendous upheaval in the home from the previous owners. I also had many antiques collected throughout the years, along with family heirlooms passed down through generations on both sides of the family.

🪞 The Dining Room Portal

Beauty, Atmosphere & Ancestral Presence

One particular room I was incredibly curious to hear their feedback about was my dining room.

It was one of my favorite rooms in the house. I had invested an enormous amount of time decorating that space even before we moved in. It felt special — not because it was large, but because deep in my heart I felt called to anchor beauty there. To create an atmosphere that held something deeper.

Possibly a mixture of poshness, comfort, and contentment. 🕯️

I began by arranging eleven large ceiling stencils surrounding the chandelier — cupids, cornucopias, and ethereal foliage interlaced with ribbons. It was a tremendous amount of work… and I absolutely loved doing it.

🌈 Stained Glass, Jacaranda & Divine Alignment

When Beauty Begins Speaking Back

Years earlier, I had found four gorgeous stained-glass windows ranging from four to seven feet tall. A whole church had been dismantled, and these phenomenal windows felt like a dream come true.

They had no religious imagery, yet the jewel tones were magnificent — flowers and geometric patterns glowing through the glass.

They remained wrapped up in the basement of my old home for years before finally finding their place.

I also created the curtains myself from fabric I found at an outlet out of town. For the lower walls, I had custom panels built to give the room more form and dimension.

My parents’ Brazilian furniture took center stage in the very formal dining room. The wood was jacaranda — a rare and beautiful Brazilian hardwood. 🇧🇷

My Taurus rising definitely leads me to love, create, and maintain beautiful and comfortable surroundings. 🌹 Yet that room also felt energetically elevated in a way I could never quite explain. I could not put my finger on it.

To my complete surprise, the grouped ceiling stencils (which came first), the stained-glass windows and their colors (which came second), and the curtains I made a year later all matched perfectly.

The colors.
The designs.
The feeling.

Everything was in complete alignment as if orchestrated by something beyond me.

It felt like far more than coincidence.

👁️ The Ancestors Were There

A Love-Filled Vortex of Memory & Healing

When the psychics finally descended to the first floor during the clearing, I was elated to hear what they would say about the dining room.

They loved the energy there.

They cleared a significant amount of energy from the room, but they also very clearly perceived that our collective ancestors resided within that space.

Through the lovingly prepared family dinners, the heartfelt gatherings, the laughter, the conversations, the comfort, and the nurturing of that love-filled vortex — flanked by cupids on the ceiling and jewel tones glowing from the South-facing windows — something sacred had been cultivated there. ✨

These women gave me personal information that helped me embrace forgiveness and feel more at ease within myself.

The ancestral insights they shared were absolutely mind-blowing to me. They were incredibly accurate.

This happened about 28 years ago.

🤍 The Room That Held Me

Sanctuary Through Life’s Hardest Seasons

Years later, that room continued to serve me in profound ways.

I went through excruciating experiences throughout the years, and the energies there soothed me, held me, and witnessed me when no other person or space could.

I felt safe in that room like nowhere else before.

Comforted by loving energies all around me.

My favorite place to read and journal was on the comfortable couch resting quietly within that room. 📖

🌎 Colombian Wisdom Keepers & Sacred Waters

Ancient Lineages Return to the Hive

When I later met the Colombian shamans, I felt a very similar comfort.

I feel their ancient lineage transmitting hope, curiosity, innocence, and play. The combination of childlike openness and deep wisdom they carry is absolutely mind-blowing.

I am beyond grateful and excited for their return.

These phenomenal human beings come from some of the oldest shamanic lineages in Colombia — and possibly among the oldest “curandeiros” cultures in South America. 🌎

As I reflect on all of these experiences — the antiques, the ancestral whispers, the sacred dining room, the healing that unfolded through beauty, memory, and energy ~ I realize that certain spaces become more than places. They become living containers of transformation. ✨

Somehow, across continents, rivers, lineages, and generations, there seems to be an invisible thread weaving it all together.

The sacred waters of the Susquehanna River, the ancient wisdom carried by the Colombian elders, the love infused into our homes, the ancestors that continue to walk beside us in unseen ways… all of it reminds me that healing is rarely linear, and mystery is never far away.

Perhaps what we are truly longing for is not simply healing itself, but remembrance.
Remembrance of belonging.
Remembrance of connection.
Remembrance that spirit, beauty, love, and reverence still live quietly all around us — waiting for us to slow down enough to feel them. 🌙

I look forward to gathering together once again in ceremony, community, curiosity, and wonder. 🐝
