About a year ago, my niece lost her wedding rings. She thought she had set them where she always did, in a little tray by the sink, but when she went to get them they weren’t there. She searched everywhere for them to no avail. She was very upset about this, as they had been her husband’s great-grandmother’s rings. I even prayed with her for Spirit to help her find them, but we never did. Last month I moved to a new house, and before I began to move my things in, I cleaned the whole house from top to bottom. While I was cleaning, the most unusual thing happened: While I was wiping out the highest bathroom cupboard, my rag swept something out on the floor. I heard a clink, and when I looked on the floor, there were the rings! I was speechless. In fact, at first I thought this was just plain impossible. However, these were very unusual antique rings, probably one of a kind. I took them to my niece and she excitedly slipped them right on her finger. She knew that they were hers and wondered where I’d found them. When I told her, we both got chills. Do you think that somehow, Spirit placed those rings in my new house, and led me to find them?

This is such a cool story!
Of course I believe that Spirit placed the rings in your new house and led you to find them. There is no other logical
explanation. You prayed to Spirit to help with the recovery of the rings, and Spirit answered your prayer. Period.
I hope this opens your eyes to just how active a role Spirit along with family, friends and other helpers on the Otherside can play in our daily lives. I often visualize myself walking down a regular street, and all sorts of spirit beings moving stuff in and out of my way so that I don’t fall or get sidetracked, and so that I meet up with the right people and opportunities, etc.
I think there is a HUGE production like this going on around us at all times. We just don’t know it because we can’t see it. When something like this happens to us, we have to stop and realize that there is some heavy duty stuff going on here.
By the way, a great-grandmother to one of you says that she would like to be consulted a little more on family decisions. She was a family matriarch in life, and she intends to retain that position now that she has passed over. She wants everyone to see that she still has the power to help out and keep things running smoothly in the family.
That is why she pulled this ring stunt. She wanted there to be no doubt of her continuing care and capabilities. She’s a pistol, that’s for sure! (Also, please tell your niece that she would like her name considered when the time comes to name new babies in the future.)
The key point Spirit wants you personally to get here is that NOTHING is impossible. You are to see that if something like this can happen, anything can be accomplished with the help of your friends and loved ones in Spirit.
You said you prayed, yet you did not believe. This experience should boost your faith. Talking the talk is nothing if you can’t or don’t walk the walk as well.
By the way, you have a bunch of spiritual helpers that are very proud of themselves right now. They are asking if you like your new home and giggling to themselves, for you had a lot of help with getting this new house. It’s a fabulous home, and I believe you will be very happy there.
I am so glad you two got to share in this incredible event. What a great bonding experience! You have a wonderful family – I hope you all appreciate and cherish each other.
I wish you many positive, productive interactions with All That Is.

I’m sure if you look back on your life and on the lives of other family members, you’ll see other times when small items were returned to you. This is probably the most dramatic expression of the love and care your Guides and Angels have for you, and it happened so you would know you and your family are being watched over.
Not many people have a story like this to tell. For those rings to return to you the way they did, a great effort had to be made by those Spiritual Caretakers. Can you imagine how difficult it must have been for disembodied Spirits to return something as concrete as those RINGS? This really was a great gift!
Regardless of how your niece’s rings arrived in your cupboard, they did. SOMEONE or SOMETHING placed them there for you to find. Amazing as this was, it’s not uncommon for prayers to be answered in such dramatic ways. Usually, the answer is not something as concrete as lost rings or other items that we can physically hold in our hands, so we aren’t shocked and amazed.
Those rings carry special energy, and your niece’s Guides were determined to get them back to the family any way they could. They chose YOU to find them because you’re the responsible one in the family.
Perhaps they mean for you to keep them for your niece until her life is more settled and she can care for valuables a bit better than she has in the past. This is a lesson for her in caring for her treasures.
I believe you should indeed accept that you were being looked after, and see this as a manifestation of the Divine in your lives. View it as your Angels looking out for all of you. Most people don’t get such tangible evidence of love from Spirit. You’ve been chosen to receive actual proof that there ARE spiritual beings looking out for you and your family all the time.
As odd as this seems, and as unlikely as it is for those rings to turn up where they did, this really happened. You can take great comfort in knowing that you have really great spirits watching over you!
It is always a good idea to find a way to say thanks to Spirit, even for small miracles. Give a little money to help the homeless, or volunteer as a family to do something meaningful for yourselves or others.
Gratitude isn’t required of us, but it is certainly appreciated. No matter how big or small the gesture, do something to show your Guides and Angels that you are truly grateful for the return of those rings and this tangible manifestation of the Divine in your lives.

Many times in life we hear, “You will always have what you NEED, but not necessarily what you WANT.” Your spirit must have needed to experience the feeling of leaving your human body, and the suggestion in the next chapter of Sylvia Brown’s book was all it took to get you there.
Even though you hadn’t read it yet, your SOUL recognized the title of that chapter as something it had been seeking, and your soul, knowing that you had that reference to read after your experience, got with it and out you went!
While I don’t usually recommend her books, Sylvia Brown has a wide reaching and powerful effect on lots of people. A Gemini like you would be able to relate easily to her writing and put it to good use. Synchronicity – you gotta love it!
I like your description of “getting caught.” That’s exactly what it feels like, isn’t it? One minute you’re free and hovering above the room, and the next minute, ZAP! back down into your corporeal form you go!
As a little kid, I loved that “feeling of return.” With practice, most of the time we can control that event, but sometimes, when our physical ears hear a distracting noise or something else occurs to knock us back into reality, back we go. With practice you will be able to control your return better.
I find it interesting that you were visiting your mother-in-law and not someone in your own genetic family. Evidently, you and your husband got married for reasons that are even deeper than love. His family’s interest in “psychic stuff” will nurture your children in such matters and help them to grow into their own abilities.
You’ll never have to be concerned that when your daughter visits them, she’ll be discouraged from exploring her own psychic life and power. My parents encouraged me to develop my psychic senses in a time when it wasn’t nice to even discuss such things in public. Heck, it’s STILL not considered a great topic at the dinner table in some families!
Your kids will get to talk about it ALL and ask questions and read and study. This is going to give them such an edge in life! Talk with your husband about how you want to present this to your kiddos, so that you are united in your approach and ready to tell them their experiences are all natural and okay.
A word or two of warning: Geminis often have difficulty staying grounded in REAL LIFE. Don’t get so strung out on your ASTRAL life that you neglect what you’re doing here on Earth.
You are at the beginning of a long journey to learn where your power really lies. Try to be patient with this process and take your time.
