Q&A: Can I Separate Some of My Dad's Ashes?

Here's a question about the separation of ashes. This person wanted to put some of her dad's

ashes in a keepsake and wondered if it was okay. Here's the question and my response.  

QUESTION:  My Dad recently passed away Aug 5th 2018.. My sister and I want to keep some of his ashes and spread the rest in the ocean where he loved to be. Will our Dad be at peace if we keep some of his ashes? Can they be separated? Thank you. 

 MY REPONSE: Yes, the ashes can be separated. They really are just remnants of your dad- and your dad's spirit is alive and well. Often people in their wills ask for their ashes to be spread in different places they liked. In spirit, it really doesn't matter to them where the ashes go- because their spirit will be around you.

Q&A with Medium Rob Gutro; Old Urns Brought into Home Cause Bad Feelings

Here's an interesting email I received about a family that took in two urns that were being discarded. A woman in the home was very uncomfortable and got a sudden visit from someone she thought may be associated with the urns. Here's her question and my answers to what may be happening there.

QUESTION:
My father works for a moving company and he recently moved a woman who was willing to get rid of a bunch of old items, including two urns. Strangely, my dad's co-workers opened the urn. Now the urns are now at my father's house.. Truthfully, I did not have a good feeling about having them there to begin with but now I have a feeling that they (the spirit or ghost) are mad or either trying to communicate. This morning I woke up in a panic and heard a something directly in my ear!  
It's almost as if it (the ghost or spirit) got scared and ran out of the room. I didn't see anything leave but I heard it. 
ould it be a possibility that these spirits are mad since they are in an unknown home with people they don't know?

ANSWERS: 
There are 2 possibilities here. 1) If there are ashes in the urns. Then, Yes. The spirits of those people are unhappy that their remains have been "given away" and not buried or scattered in an place to honor them. 
  What you experienced was a visit from a spirit (who has crossed over).
   The urns and ashes need to be buried somewhere, or the ashes need to be sprinkled in a wooded area - and the urns tossed away. 
OR 
2) If there are no ashes in the urns, they were the pride of someone who passed away and that person has come back in spirit to tell you they don't want anyone else to have them. Again, you can bury the urns or discard them. Either way, they should not be in your home. There's apparently someone attached to them who is not happy that they've left their previous location. 

3) The best idea would be for your dad to return the vases to the woman. The spirits clearly do not want their remains to be apart from her. They will not rest until they are reunited or buried or scattered with honor.
