A Wonderful Sign from a Beautiful Dog In Spirit!

Emmy visited her mom

In my books, Pets and the Afterlife and Pets and the Afterlife 2, I wrote about many ways that our pets can communicate with us after they pass away. Recently, I received a beautiful experience from Mary, whose beloved dog, Emmy passed away. Mary gave me permission to share her story, in hopes that it helps others understand that their pets can communicate the same way.
  Here's Mary's experience (and a photo of her beautiful dog, Emmy):
 
Hi Rob- My Emmy really came through to let me know she is still with me two weeks after we said goodbye. 
   I was over my son's house in PA babysitting. Emmy always came with me. 
This is the first time [I was there] without her. I was missing her a lot and I said that out loud. 
    Later that night, I was in bed and I was talking to her saying how I wish she was there. It didn't feel right without her there.
   I turned out the light and was trying to fall asleep. I was lying on my side and I felt something nudge me on the side. Then I felt something walking all over the bed. I didn't move because I wanted to concentrate and make sure I wasn't imagining it. It was without a doubt something walking on my bed. 
   I then said okay go to sleep and it stopped. I turned the light on and I looked around. I had the spread off the bed but on the top sheet I saw little indentations like paw prints! 
   I should have taken a picture but I was stunned. I finally went to sleep and woke up smiling and happy. I been smiling all day. My baby let me know she was with me like she always was.

A Fun Podcast with Paranormal UK Radio: Rob Talks Kindred Spirits

Here's a brand new podcast of an interview I just did with Irene and Phillip at Paranormal UK Radio. 
This is a fun fact-filled, experience laden 2 hour podcast where Rob Gutro talks about his new book "Kindred Spirits" and how Ed's spirit befriended him and the funny side of his communications. Of course, we also touched base about pets in the afterlife (based on Rob's 2 books) because Ed was there for both of Rob's dogs on the other side. 
   It was a fun and fascinating podcast!

My Twitter Name Change!

Back in 2010, when I developed a Twitter page for my first book, Ghosts and Spirits, I wasn't very creative. So I named it "GhostMediumBook." 
  Recently, I realized that I could change it, so I made it "RobGutroAuthor" now!
So if you have Twitter and find it easy to follow someone there. here's the new URL: https://twitter.com/RobGutroAuthor
 

A Note to Those Who Haven't Read my Books: and Ask for Readings

Today's blog is addressed to anyone who finds me through interviews, facebook or other means and have never read one of my books (which I wrote to help YOU see signs without needing a medium). 

Some things to know:

1) I don't do readings for a living.  (or make appts for them)

2) I'm a meteorologist in my full time job. 

3) I wrote several books to explain how YOU can see signs from your loved ones without a medium.

4) TO FIND SIGNS:  "Ghosts and Spirits" and "Lessons Learned from Talking to the Dead" explain how you can see all different signs from those in HUMAN spirit!  

  "Pets and  the Afterlife" and "Pets and the Afterlife 2" explain how pets communicate from spirit.

They're on Amazon .com for less than $10 each- so I recommend you read one to teach yourself what to look for instead of spending

a lot of money on mediums.

 4) Go on Amazon and type in "Rob Gutro" to find my books.

   

Tarot Tuesday; The Death Card!

Today's Tarot Tuesday with my friend Joy Andreasen is about the Death Card!

Joy Says: Death is not always about physical passing from this life to the next. Sometimes it symbolizes a huge change or transformation in your life. One aspect of life has to die in order for the next expression of your soul to begin. It is okay to grieve the loss. Namaste.


THE CARD MEANING (From biddytarot.com)
UPRIGHT: Endings, change, transformation, transition
REVERSED: Resistance to change, personal transformation, inner purging

Death Description

The Death card shows the Messenger of Death – a skeleton dressed in black armor, riding a white horse. The skeleton represents the part of the body which survives long after life has left it; the armor symbolizes invincibility and that death will come no matter what. Its dark color is that of mourning and the mysterious, while the horse is the color of purity and acts as a symbol of strength and power. Death carries a black flag decorated with a white, five-petal rose, reflecting beauty, purification and immortality and the number five representing change. Together, these symbols reveal that death isn’t just about life ending. Death is about endings and beginnings, birth and rebirth, change and transformation. There is beauty in death, and it is an inherent part of being alive.
A royal figure appears to be dead on the ground, while a young woman, child and bishop plead with the skeletal figure to spare them. But, as we all know, death spares no one.
In the background, a boat floats down the river, akin to the mythological boats escorting the dead to the afterlife. On the horizon, the sun sets between two towers (which also appear in the Moon Tarot card), in a sense dying each night and being reborn every morning.


BIOGRAPHY: Joy Andreasen is an author, shamanic practitioner, psychic medium, spiritual consultant, Reiki Master Teacher and wedding officiant. She has been giving messages from Spirit for almost twenty years. She teaches spiritual development and shamanic classes in Winchester and Herndon Virginia which are always highly acclaimed.

Bristol, England Hauntings #1: Theatrical Ghosts of Bristol Old Vic

One of my books is called "Ghosts of England on a Medium's Vacation" and is all about the various ghosts I met when I took 2 vacations in England. Recently, Bristol Live in the UK ran a series about haunted places in Bristol, so on this blog,  you'll read about 1 each week for the next several weeks!      Meanwhile if you want to read about the ghosts I met (Queens, shop owners, members of the royal court, Tavern workers, Shakespeare's sister, and even a dog, check out my book on Amazon.com.  Now, onto the hauntings in Bristol, England:

Theatrical ghosts of Bristol Old Vic

 

Bristol Old Vic, or The Theatre Royal as it was once known, is Britain's oldest working theatre.

The historic venue on King Street is well-known to ghost-hunters, and both staff and audience members have reported drops in temperature, the sensation of somebody brushing past them, and even a strange, sweet smell that comes and goes.

The theatre is said to be home to at least two ghosts.

The first is a lady dressed in black who is believed to be either famous actress Sarah Siddonss reliving her glory days or Sarah Macready, the widow of a theatre manager who cannot bear to leave the place she loved most in life.
The other ghost is that of a man killed in an accident at the theatre. Known as Richard, the ghost moves objects around backstage and turns lights on and off.

Lessons Learned from Talking to the Dead: Be Considerate of Others

    In my book "Lessons Learned from Talking to the Dead" I provide a lot of insight not only into the many ways that human spirits (and Earthbound ghosts) communicate with us, and things our loved ones in spirit recommend we do in this life to make it better for ourselves and others. 

  One of the main lessons they tell me is: "Be Considerate of Others."   

   Recently, that message has echoed throughout my emails and this applies to all whom email me about free readings (I offer 1 per person and ask you buy a book).  I get up to 40 requests a week and each take 15 minutes. - BTW, there are no other mediums/authors who offer free readings.

   Several times this week I've received emails from grieving folks for whom I have already given a free spirit reading, and they asked for 1, 2, 3 or in one case 7 more free readings about different people and pets who they have lost! That's unfair to everyone else and to me.

   I understand the sense of loss and a desire to want to connect. All of my older relatives have passed. My parents, aunts and uncles,and grandparents have all passed. I've also lost several friends that are my age or younger. Of course I would like to hear from them all, but even as a medium, that's not possible.  

   So, I'm not trying to be mean by telling folks that I don't have time to do multiple readings for every pet, cousin, or relative who passed- but I am one guy, and I do this out of the goodness of my heart, on my family time. So, even from the start in 2010, I've asked people be considerate of ME and of OTHERS if you have already had a reading. There are 8 billion people on this planet and everyone has lost someone. 

  I specifically wrote the books so people could learn to see the signs from spirit themselves without asking (and 99% of the time paying) a medium.  Further, if you buy a book and teach your self, you become self-reliant and you learn and can teach others! (Remember the saying: "Teach a man to fish and they eat for life, give them a fish and they keep asking for another?) 

  NOTE:  Buying a Book after getting a reading is a nice way to thank me and provides me some funds to travel to Animal Rescues where I do fundraisers (again, I use the meager profits from the book to do that)!  (all available on Amazon, and under $10, so they are affordable). 

TOUCHED BY OTHER'S KINDNESS- I've met wonderful people via email readings. One woman made a donation to an animal rescue in my late dog Sprite's name.  A couple in Texas sent me a beautiful arrangement of flowers. These people went over and above and I so appreciate them. You can tell, I've never forgotten the gesture of kindness. 

   
    The Bottom Line is "Please be considerate of others and their time. Don't take advantage of someone's good nature, and let others experience healing as you have."
