Predicting the future
I wanted to share an experience I had when I was 18 and working in Aberdeen, some 42 years ago.
I found an adver t in a local paper to have an astrological char t drawn up, and had the reading on a day off.
I was told I would be happily married and have two — and possibly three children — by the age of 30.
It struck me as an odd thing to say, but a few years later I fell pregnant with twins.
Then, on my second scan, I was told there was only one embr yo, as the second had been ‘absorbed’ by the other.
Years later, I had another baby. So I ended up having two children, but so nearly three, which I’m sure is what my reading predicted.
I’ve also been happily married for 37 years!

During the second line of the poem, a single orb can be seen racing across the screen in a straight line.
No one has been able to explain it, but I believe it’s Mam letting me know that she’s around and thanking me for the poem.

Spirit calling
My boyfriend Paul and I had been together for a few years. We’d got engaged and were looking forward to the future.
But then Paul died in a car accident on an icy road, and my family and I were devastated. A few weeks later while sitting in the front room talking about Paul and the good
