The Canine Fairy, Journal Entry From 7/30/22

Morgen has a friend named Amelia whose spirit guide is like none I’ve seen before. I finally got a chance to draw it with Morgen’s help, of course. I saw the suit, bright green eyes, messy hair and pointy ears myself. But I didn’t see his face as clearly as Morgen did, and missed the detail that his face was hairy. He reminds of Teen Wolf, the Michael J Fox movie about werewolves made in the 80s. I guess I’ll never be surprised what fairies can look like. I haven’t seen too many that look like sexy women with wings, as depicted in most fairy art. I like to document new ones to depict them more as they are, more than mere fantasy art.

Michael Shaman said that is name is Jerome and he can have wings or not. He is positive and boosts energy, helps you heal yourself, and makes everything go smoothly. He is small like the other fairies, about the size of a large butterfly, so maybe 3 inches? I am trying to be accurate in the size because Costa Rica has butterflies the size of dinner plates, so large butterfly means something different to everyone. All in all, Jerome is a great energy to have around, and is quite snazzy in his bee suit.

It seems fairies come in all shapes and sizes. Jerome seems to be part canine or wolf. I have also seen feline mixed fairies.

The Sexy Fairy and the Frog, Journal Entry From 7/14/22

When I was at Paracon, which I mentioned in an earlier blog entry, there was a woman that went on the haunted tour of the Majestic Ventura Theater with Michael Shaman and I. We bumped into her at lunch and Michael told her that she has a fairy with her. I wanted to draw her and he told me that she had a heart shaped face, brown hair and wore sexy gold lingerie. It took me awhile to draw her because I only saw glimpses of her face, and Morgen wasn’t giving me much information. She said her nose looks like Coraline’s and then gave me a hard time because my drawing looked too cartoony. I know the fairy doesn’t look like a cartoon, so the struggle is my own drawing skills on an iPad which is a newer drawing medium for me. Her wings looked like rose petals, and she had make-up on including painted nails.

A very cute fairy spirit guide

A friend of mine from our Unordinary Made Ordinary group on Facebook, Redd, mentioned some things in the community zoom chat that caught my attention. One time during the chat, I saw him looking around and he said, “What is zooming around my room?” That was funny to me because I also experience things zooming around. They look like a blur, nearly see through distortions of air that move very quickly. And I have come to discover that nearly everything from that fairy dimension, or Middle Kingdom, moves that fast. They all seem to fly even if they don’t have wings, they run on air at the speed of light. So, I recognized immediately that he had something from that dimension in his home. Later, I saw a post from him in our Facebook group asking “What Lurker is coming onto my bed and sleeping next to me?” I’ve had this happen with animals that have passed on and that was my first thought but he didn’t have any animals. I asked Morgen to have a quick look and she said it is a big frog in a yellow kimono very similar to the frog in Miyazaki’s Spirited Away. Many characters in Japanese cartoons seem to be real fae dimension beings that are in old Japanese folktales.

Since then, Redd has had the frog jumping rhythmically on his back while he’s trying to sleep, as if he’s dancing. I told him to wear a kimono and have a dance party for him. I drew and sent Redd a picture of his Lurker. :) Again, the frog drawing is more cartoony than I want.

Redd named his frog friend Hypno

Fairy Past Life, Journal Entry From 4/14/22

It’s my birthday and 30th anniversary tattooing. Woohoo! I came to a revelation that I may have already touched on in previous journal entries, but that’s because I’m typing them a year after I already wrote it in my journal and can edit my experiences as I understand them better. I had given Michael Shaman ( http://www.mylightcenter.com ) a framed picture of Precious, my gollum, and now he is getting peaked on by a gollum of his own. He is excited to have one, and is calling him Rascal, although I don’t think he’s as rascally as Precious. My gollum is like a toddler, always playing with window blinds or jumping around. He’s kind of hyper and childish. I think having the print of Precious somehow attracted one to his house. Like, they know you are into them or something? Rascal is a relative of Precious. The fairies and other beings from this dimension know that I draw them. I can tell by the way they really show themselves to me, moving their heads so I can see all the angles. And the Amabie knows when you hang a drawing of them I think, because how else would hanging a drawing of them help you heal? It could simply be the belief that hanging the picture makes your mind heal yourself. Placebo is 70 percent effective in healing which is a great example of the power of our own minds.

But, then there was the alien print I gave my friend Greg. After putting it up, he had a negative energy in his room that his dog felt too. He had to turn the print of the Reptilian around and then the negative energy was gone. Greg is more sensitive to energy than most, someone else might not have noticed the difference. I talked to my daughter, Morgen about this idea about my prints and she agreed that my drawings are manifesting. I need to draw myself winning the lottery….

Last time Morgen saw Michael Shaman for an appointment, he said that she had a red haired fairy hanging around her. The fairy knows Morgen from a past life, when Morgen was also from this family of red haired fairies. It seems a few of Morgen’s friends in this life were also fairies with her. I can tell which ones were because they are all gorgeous, and they are all sensitive to the point of being nearly clairvoyant. They can’t hold a candle to Morgen’s abilities, but if they meditated they would be much more clairvoyant if they wanted to be. I’m starting to notice when someone is incarnated from that dimension more. They have a connection to nature that is stronger than average. They love gardening and plants, and being crafty. They are very romantic and really want love. It’s a priority to them. I actually was sitting across from my friend Cynthia, who I’ve known since I was 12 years old. And all of a sudden I saw fairy wings behind her, and it just made so much sense. She has been searching for love her whole life and is giddy happy about her relationship now. Fairies come from a place of love, so this human experience can be very jarring for them. Even her face has a fairy like quality that I recognize from drawing so many different ones. Plus, her interests have always been art, sewing, music and cooking. I don’t know that she is connected to nature as much as I’ve seen other Middle Kingdom incarnates, but she does hike a hell of a lot. I don’t know how to explain it, but I can get a quick glimpse at a person’s past life occasionally. Of course, they probably have many past lives, but it’s pretty cool to see the bleed over in their face structure from another life, or a bleed over of their interests and talents.

I drew Morgen and one of her friends as their past life selves. They currently aren’t friends anymore. I think they will be again. Your soul team are no joke. People think that when they meet a soulmate, it’s going to be a Hallmark romance and I’m here to say that sometimes it’s going to be a tough lesson.

The Feline Fairy & The Amabie, Journal Entry From 4/8/22

Michael had a fairy visitor that he described to me. She sounded like what I would look like if I were a fairy. Short blonde hair, and wearing a leopard print body suit. I meditated to see her so that I could draw her and saw details of her face. She looked a little like the character Kira, in the movie The Dark Crystal, but with big very green eyes. Her face structure had feline qualities. I drew her and she is so cute. It really is amazing the different varieties of fairies out there.

The Feline Fairy seen by Michael

On Sunday, I saw something go by my living room window so fast. It was a blur! It seemed to go along the wall of my deck and then up in the air, and then it dove down. I thought maybe a fairy just flew by, but when I asked Morgen she said it was a gnome running by. How can a gnome run by but seem to fly upward and dive? Well, they run on air like the rest of the things around here! And it passed right in front of my Ring camera, but it was too fast for my camera to be triggered by the motion. I might have to bounce the camera angle from a mirror and leave treats for them to slow them down. Maybe one day I’ll catch something accidentally wander into my camera, but they seem to be very conscious of my cameras.

I also worked on another drawing of one of Jenna’s spirit guides. She says this one is called an Amabie (ah mah bee ay) from Japanese folklore, and it lives in Sinaloa Lake behind her house. I looked them up online to learn more and the story goes that people in Japan saw a glowing light out in the ocean. They sailed out to it and found an Amabie. They were told they would have 6 years of good harvest and if someone is ill, to draw the Amabie and hang it on their wall to help them heal. They are different looking, with 3 tails and no arms, a beak, and a yellow star around their eyes. I’m finding that different cultures have a variety of beings that really exist much like our fairies. I made prints of her and left them with a few of my friends and family to hang on their walls to help with their health. Again, I do sell prints of these if anyone is in need of a little Middle Kingdom magic just send me an email.

Amabie are from Japanese folklore, and are a 3 tailed aquatic being with great healing powers.

Middle Kingdom is in the House, Journal Entry From 3/26/23

Last week was crazy with the Middle Kingdom guys. On Tuesday, I woke up and saw a boy with a page boy haircut floating above me near the ceiling fan. It totally startled me! He was about 3 feet tall and looked like Peter Pan with the green shirt and hat. When I blinked my eyes, I could still see him. So I’m not sure if I was seeing him with my third eye the whole time, or also with my physical eyes. He is a nature spirit.

The nature spirit that floated above me. I believe Peter Pan is based on one of these beings.

After meeting up with the Psychic Group on Wednesday, I saw Suzie’s green fairy spirit guide. She mentioned at dinner that she was told she had a green fairy around her. I saw her a lot actually, and got the feeling she wanted me to draw her. She was showing me her face from different angles, posing for me like a model. I thought in my mind that she didn’t have human features, because I was taking mental notes to draw her better. She must have gotten offended and started to show herself looking like an anime cartoon, driving a convertible with her white hair blowing in the wind. Both images of her had very long eyelashes that came up on the side like an eyeliner wing. I got up and started sketching an anime version, but Morgen later saw my drawing and asked why I was drawing her like that? She said it’s not what she looks like. And then she found a picture of the female character in Avatar and said her face looks like that, but light green. Which is funny, because that’s exactly how I saw her first. I think fairies can get their feelings hurt easily. I’ll have to remember to watch what I think in the future.

The Green Fairy wears two rose petals wrapped and tied around her waist. She is only a few inches tall.

After starting my green fairy sketch and being upset that it didn’t look right, I crawled back to bed in defeat. I saw a startling looking new plant guy. I guess the word is out that I’m drawing them all! He had petals on his head and big round eyes. He’s another biological/plant hybrid here on my property. He has a woody root like body and a grumpy face, but I still think he’s pretty cute. I’ll wake up to these guys any day, over the years of negative things tormenting us! All in all, a great week for me.

Here’s a drawing of the plant hybrid I saw. If anyone ever wants to buy a print, just shoot me an email. I do make 8X10” prints of these all and hanging them on the wall seems to attract them into your life:)

Fantastic Beasts, Journal Entry From 2/18/22

I was watching Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them and Morgen walks through the room and sees the little plant guy, Pickett, in Newt Scamander’s pocket. She says, “Those are real. They just showed themselves to me.” I asked if they sent images to her mind, the same way the gnomes did to me and she said, “Yes.”

Later, I meditated and saw how the leaves attach to the top with red or burgundy stems. I set out to draw them and was originally drawing them inaccurately, more like the Bowtruckle in the movie. These guys live underground and are a vegetable/biological combo that live on fungus. We have a lot of them here on our property.

Bowtruckle

I named him Twiggy. This is a more accurate drawing than what they look like in the Fantastic Beasts movies. I also am not convinced they morph into anything like in the movie however if I find out differently, I will update.

Ione, Journal Entry From 2/7/22

Jenna has been helping me with a few Middle Kingdom drawings. I would love to document what they look like better. When we look up fairies online, they look just like us but with wings and some look like that. But, others look very different. Jenna has a few spirit guides that she can see and speak with that are from that dimension. One is named Ione, and she is a troll who lived above ground. They are most likely extinct now, and only the underground ones still exist.

Ione was Jenna’s teacher in a past life.

I thought Ione resembled the Mystics in the movie The Dark Crystal. Just like so many other things that I’ve seen, other people are also seeing beings from The Middle Kingdom dimension as well. Or they are just subconsciously tapping into it when they create and design characters for stories and movies. I think drawing them helps people connect to their spirit guides better, although Jenna seems connected to hers already very well.

Jenna also helped me with a sketch of what the Blue Fairy looks like. She moved into the fairy garden I made. She chose the log cabin I put on top of a tree stump. I built it to be the camp host spot. She’s great to have around because Blue Fairies are healers. She doesn’t have wings, but can run on air. I parked my car in the driveway, covered my eyes with my hands and turned my head toward the fairy garden. I saw a blue silhouette of a fairy float up above the cabin. She had a blue glow around her. That’s the first time I saw a fairy. Some people are more connected to the vibration of that dimension, and I figure it has to do with being reincarnated from there. They are a higher vibration than the one human spirits are on, I believe.

The Blue Fairy

"Another Dimension" from Journal entries 10/7/21 and 11/18/21

Last week, my friend Greg and I were in the living room and we both heard my kitchen door open and turned our heads to look. We both expected my daughter to be walking in, but what we saw was that the door never moved. Then, a few nights ago both me and my puppy, Jasper heard a doorbell in the middle of the night. We both were laying in bed and raised our heads and looked towards the kitchen at the noise. But, my house doesn’t have a doorbell, and in the morning I looked to see if it ever had one. There are no signs of wiring for a doorbell near either of my doors.

I texted Michael and he says we are going to be experiencing more of this as the earth shifts into the 4th and 5th dimension. My house, according to him, sits right on the transition line and the line to Middle Kingdom which explains our gollum. He said being on the line will help us with premonitions and Morgen will know future events. I’m exited about this prospect.

Meanwhile, I talked to my brother Pete, and he has been trying to visit my house on the astral. He’s a very good astral traveler and been able to do it since high school. Somehow when he travels, he ends up at my house but it’s very dark and still. Nobody is here and there are no cars in the driveway. I think he is coming to a different dimension than we are in. Now that I know about the multiple dimension lines here, I think astral travel to my house may prove tricky.

11-18-21

So, crazy stuff. I was camping last weekend at Rincon Parkway site #91, in Ventura, CA. I sat on my chair overlooking the ocean and saw a faint thick line across the sky. It came from behind me and out over the ocean. I wasn’t sure if it was two parallel lines with a gap between or one thick line. It passed over site #90 or #89, not exactly where I was parked. I had a feeling that it went straight to my house and beyond.

I tried to recreate what I saw overhead with a picture that I took that weekend.

Days later, I told my friend Sam and she said she sees it from her desk at work. So, I plotted on a map the address for her work, my house and sure enough the dimension line runs straight to Rincon.

A week ago, my cat jumped on my bed in the middle of the night and he smelled like burnt hair. When I placed my hand on his back to check him out, I saw three red flashes of light in my eyes. Felt like a warning. My cat wasn’t burned but I got up and turned off the wall heater and saw that the stove knobs weren’t covered. He lays on the counter and pushes the gas knobs of the stove with his body, and it makes the stove leak gas. I keep a small baking pan over the knobs since I’ve seen that happen and have read that cats start a fair amount of house fires. I asked Michael about it the next morning, and he said my cat got burned in another dimension.

Then, two nights ago I woke up to the strangest sound. It started like a young persons voice almost, saying, “tick, tick, tick, tick, tick.” It came from the road right behind my house and I didn’t know what it was but lay still to hear it. Then, it sounded like, “ma la la la lee lu!” repeatedly. It sounded like a strange big birdlike animal from the Middle Kingdom. I knew I should’ve grabbed my phone to record the sound but was afraid my moving would stir my dogs and it would get scared off. Next time, I will for sure record it. I know it was from Middle Kingdom because my eyes could see that flickering light and shadow that seems to come with that dimension, like when Precious is around. When I closed my eyes to try to remote view the “bird”, I saw something like 6 foot tall, with a bunch of things on it’s head. The closest thing I can think of to describe the things on it’s head was the forest spirit in the movie Princess Mononoke, and all it’s horns. I really need to get cameras up around my house. l would love to document these beings from another dimension, or draw them. (As an afterword on this, I do have more information and details but will draw and update at a later date what I saw! Stay tuned:)
