Полная расшифровка выпуска Paranormal Discussion, Hauntings, Lapis Lazuli and Tarot

will never say their names. They were people that I knew, and they laughed and snickered about it being a scooter. Now I got to tell you folks, I was completely out of my mind, shocked by this, and I found myself as I heard this happening. They were two cubes down for me. They were talking about it, and then someone else told me about it, and I was embarrassed, which is something I never am. I was flush with red because I'm like, I just spent$15,000 I got this new piece of machinery that I love, and I'm being made fun of it here at work. Now, as you know, I've practiced metaphysical stuff since I was in the single digits as a human being, and so I always turn to my crystals to to help me in in these times. And so for whatever reason, I got my tool kit out that night, and lapis lazuli was exactly what was calling to me, and I just held it on my chest, because I was really taken back by this. I was disturbed that somebody was making fun of me, and I didn't understand why. Now, come to come, come to figure out why. I will tell you why they were. It's ridiculous, but here I was just felt very shamed and being made fun of for no reason, and I used my piece of lapis easily. I set it on my chest, I meditated it with it that night, and I carried it for two weeks, and I slowly chipped away at and I'm going to use a cuss word here. This I apologize, parents, if you're listening, push pause here. I'm going to be using some curse words. But the overwhelming sense, when I was done with my meditation for two weeks and keeping that lap of sizzling, having this, this situation, happen to me as fuck off, is exactly where I came out. Fuck off. Why was I? Because I knew the reason, because I talked to a couple of motorcycle people and friends of mine, and it's because the motorcycle, motorcycle clan, if you will, the kind of toxic masculinity crowd, and that's not typically motorcycle people, but the people that, the people that were making fun of me about this, were not even motorcycle people, but it was a scooter, and that was like a pansy type of bike. And why wouldn't you get a real bike type of thing? Come to find out. And I had no idea when this happened, and it really, really, really, kind of upset me. And where does lapis again come in, and how I came out the other end, thinking, fuck you. Self acceptance and wisdom, I came into this completely blindsided. So I was being made of, made fun of because of a vehicle that I bought at my place of him at my place of employment, by my peers. I felt very vulnerable, vulnerable and embarrassed by it, which I laugh about now, because if it happened today, I'd be like laugh all the way dumb ass. I don't care. That's how I've evolved, and that's where lapis lazuli comes in. It's wisdom down the road, if you will, our own path, our own road, and self acceptance. And when you kind of get to that point where nothing can break you like this situation broke me, you really, really become a more powerful and confident and strong person, and that's what I am today. But if I can think back to that day when I was 34 I'm cringing thinking about I remember it as if it was it just happened this morning, and that feeling of somebody making fun of you for something that you had no idea that you could even be made fun of for, it can kind of wreck your psyche, if you will. And that's what it did for me. And Laplace Lazuli simply saved. The day, and I urge you to get a good piece of it in your collection, because you'll never go wrong with it. Lapis, easily, beautiful blue and copper. All right, friends, let's talk paranormal. We're going to talk about that for the majority of this episode, and lots and lots to discuss here that have happened in my life, and I had to do a chronology of it. I've been simply obsessed with paranormal activity, paranormal studies, my entire life. I've done all the crazy things, you know, broken into in high school southern Ohio, to a school that allegedly had an explosion that was haunted. I spent the night at the Mansfield reformatory a couple times on Ghost hunts. I've had experiences at homes I've owned, and we're going to talk about some of those. Had an experience at a church in Cary, Ohio that was life changing up until this past three weeks, the crooked cottage escape room building has been extremely active, and we're going to probably not going to get to that discussion this week. We'll talk about that in next week's episode. I don't know how far we'll get, but we're gonna do our best. So let's start talking. So first big experience, I had a couple things. The number 151, it was the address of two houses I've owned. It's the address of one house I currently live in, it's the address of another house I own several years ago, it was the room that my mother stayed in at Willowbrook when we had to move her to Willowbrook due to her journey with Alzheimer's. So the number 151, has repeatedly visited me in my life. Like I said, I have lived in two different houses, the current house and another house that had the address of 151 and so the first house that I lived in that had the address of 151 was my first bona fide haunting, if you will. I remember being at closing. This was a Victorian house. It was built in the 1800s beautiful stained glass everywhere, beautiful wood floors, everything that you want out of the Victorian house. But like most Victorian houses have a storied history in that, you know, it was built. I forget who the house was built for, but we'll say it was built for some big, wealthy professor or something like that, and then that person dies, and around that time, we're in the mid, you know, 40s and 50s in the United States, and architecture and ideals have changed, and those Victorian houses and then get cut up into five apartments and reconfigured all the way up through the 80s and then the 90s, the appreciation for that architecture started to trickle back in, and people put them back together. And a lot of the people

saved the doors and things, and now you have the past put back the way it was intended to be. The point of telling you all that is, there's a bunch of energy change, if you will, from what it once was to what it is. And so we moved into this house, it had completely been rehabbed, beautiful Victorian, three stories, six, seven foot, stained glass panels everywhere, just exquisite. And I closing when we were buying that house, I was secretly really, really wanted it to be haunted. And I happened to ask the owner, because I really wanted it to be at closing if it were haunted, and she got real white in the face, because I only because she was afraid that I was going to close, stop the closing, and not buy the house anyway. She admitted that she never said that. She never used the word, yes, it's haunted, but it was many people think so, come to find out, the previous owners, from them, also experience these things. So let's talk about my first house, beginning with the numbers 151, so when I first moved in there, one of the telltale things that would happen this house had no carpeting whatsoever. It had original parquet wood floors upstairs, original pine floor or downstairs, original pine floors on the second and third floor, so original wood everywhere. We ended up putting some carpet on the third floor at one point, because those floors were never meant to be exposed. But at that point, when I'm telling you this story, there was no carpet in the whole house. The master bedroom was at the top of the front staircase. The dining room was in the middle of the downstairs, so not on top of each other. You could, if I were standing in the dining room and someone were in the master bedroom in that house, could you have a conversation, not without really yelling on more than one occasion? And this exact phenomenon was a. Explained to me by the people that we bought the house from, who also heard the same story from the people they bought the house from. It was the equivalent of dropping a bowling ball on a wood floor in the middle of the night. The only thing I can equate it to on a sound to help you understand my very first apartment when I was 21 I had a Greyhound, and his name was Sid. He was ornery. He was the size of a pony. He was awesome. And I had an aquarium on a probably four and a half foot dresser, chest of doors that I had in the room that had some goldfish in it. In the middle of the night, he pulled that aquarium air tube. He was just yanking on it, as dogs often do it. He pulled it and the entire aquarium came out and fell straight down on a hardwood floor. It was the same exact sound, I mean, just a very loud catastrophe sound. And the times that this happened, at 151 you would get up, you would turn all the lights in the house, you'd even go down to the basement, which was a cement floor, would have never sounded like that. There was never any evidence of anything like that. That was Story number one. Story number two. At this house, we

were up on the third floor. We would often host game nights, and we'd have friends over, and we'd play board games, cards or food, and that was kind of our entertainment Palace up on the third floor of this house. I have standard poodles. I currently have two. At the time, I had one, and his name was Norman, and everybody looked around, and we're like, where's Norman? And he would have run of the house while we were playing, so he could run up and down the stairs. And this is a huge house, so, you know, three floors of fun for a dog. But Norman was not a senior at this point, but he was probably seven years old, so he wasn't getting into things. We could not find Norman to save ourselves. You just couldn't. We get on the kitchen, and we notice there's a bathroom in the downstairs kitchen at 151 and that door could only be locked from the inside. It wasn't a key door. It had a little twisty dead bolt up really high if you wanted to use it, lock it from the inside. And Norman was inside of that bathroom, locked in. There was no one else in the house. We had to pop the door off the hinges to get him out. He wasn't scared. He was cool, calm and collected when he got out, there's no way he wasn't tall enough to even if he stood up on his hind legs and could slide down the door to lock that twisty dead boat. He could not have done. It was a physical impossibility. And finally, Story number three, about the 151 house. So as these things continued to happen, there were much, many other nuances like I'm describing to you, but these are standout things. My mom spent the night now, she said to me, when she spent the night there, that she woke up in the middle of the night and she saw what looked like green plasma, if you will. It was like a floating, gelatinous goo across coming across the living room. When my mom would spend the night at my house, she would never sleep in beds. Her and dad like to always sleep on the couch, because it would fall asleep watching and so this was way down in the back of the house, in the family room. So I didn't think anything of it. My parents did not drink. They did not party. They were not embellishers. They were very, extremely Catholic. So these were not the kind of people that would try to get your attention by telling you a ghost story, either. But I just didn't really think anything of it until that exact thing happened to me. But it was in the polar opposite part of the house. So they were in the family room, which, when you come in the back door of that house. You were in the family room, and I saw this above the staircase, which would greet you when you come in, a big, ornate Victorian staircase. And I got up to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night, and I walked by and hanging in the staircase vestibule, there, right in front of me, was a purplish green blob of plasma, and it just it was floating around. You could see it plain as day. Never sell it again. Decided at that point this house is a little bit haunted. We're having all these weird things happen. And so I bought some this was, this would have been back. Gosh, what year would have been? My math is failing me, folks, 15 years ago, we'll say, how about that? So camera equipment, phone, cell phone, cameras and stuff were not as prevalent in society as they are today. Or I would have just set up a tripod with my phone, but actually bought camera equipment and started recording stuff. There was a library in this house downstairs, and nothing really ever happened in that room. But I would move the camera every couple nights. I'd put it up for a couple nights, and I would fast forward it as fat, and use the software to kind of, to kind of review things. And the software would, you know, I would see audio. If there was sound, I would see things. So I didn't have to sit and watch footage for eight hours. Yes. Well, anyway, I had put in the library downstairs one night, and I was watching it the next day, and all this audio came up out of the blue. It was pretty quiet. You would hear a thing. You know, the audio would come up when the HVAC would come on the house a little bit. But this was much more and so I narrow it down and get to that part of the video. It was at 324, in the morning. And I have DVDs of this, I made DVDs and to prove it and stuff, someone had gotten up. It was either myself or my partner had got up and went to the bathroom and flushed the toilet in the middle. Then the toilet was on the back of the house, not directly above here, but in a silent house. At that time in the morning, if somebody flushed the toilet upstairs, eventually you would hear the water come through the pipes, and as soon as that toilet flushed, you hear a little girl's voice say, what was that? Rewind it 1000s of times. I've watched it. I've shown it to many people. There is no explanation for it that was being filmed in the library of that house. Again, never really had anything happen in the library at that house. So those things are my first haunted house experiences of my life that were that were pretty telltale and fun, but I want to back it up a little bit before that. Everybody just likes a good haunted house story, but those are the major stick outs at that house, there was all kinds of those bowling balls dropping in the middle of the night, noises that would happen. We would come home after both being at work, or we, you know, say we went to we left it, I don't know, eight in the morning on a Saturday, and we were gone until eight at night. We would get home at night. You know that smell when you when you get out of the shower, that somebody's freshly showered in a house, you get that kind of familiar smell and a little bit of that humidity and moisture, you would feel that and smell that right when you walk in, even though there were no one in the house. Weird Things like that happen all along. But I want to back up the haunting stuff to a little bit more paranormal, other side, spiritual stuff.

So as you know, I was raised, born and raised in a very Roman Catholic family. I went to a Catholic grade school. I went to a Catholic high school. I went to Bishop Hartley High School in Columbus and St Pius and Reynoldsburg is where I went to grade school. And I was actually going to go to a Catholic College, Dominican, but they didn't have the program that I wanted for accounting, so I didn't end up going there. And so I used to very much practice. I never missed a holy day, nothing. I was big into Catholicism in the church and all that stuff. So at the time that I'm about to tell you about, I was living in Findlay, Ohio, and you may be rolling your eyes or saying, Hmm, this is a guy that practices a bunch of witch stuff. And that's true, and I've talked about that, and we can talk about that again, but Catholicism lends itself to that. You know, the smells and bells of the Catholic mass, incense bells, transformations happening there. It's no wonder that you get drawn to the people who are grown up like that. Get drawn to this stuff. I love all the natural stuff. But anyway, I digress. I was living in Findlay, Ohio. I was working for Microsoft, and my friend Maureen, I had just moved up there maybe a month before, and so I'd be lying if I told you that I was in my 20s. At the point in my 20s, I was a party. I don't mind me. I went out every night, or if we didn't have five drinks, it wasn't a good night. And my friend Maureen and I were thick as thieves in partners in crime and doing that. And so she was coming up to stay with me for the weekend, because I was an hour and a half away from Columbus now, two hours. And so we were going to just do our friendship thing. Excuse me. Maureen was having some personal problems at the time. She was traveling, selling insurance, that type of thing, and drinking too much, and she felt that she had become too dependent on alcohol, but didn't really think anything of it. So we went to a place called Our Lady of consolation. It's a basilica in Cary, Ohio, which is about 15 miles south of Findlay, internationally known people from all over the world come to this place. It's like a European cathedral. It's just beautiful. And there are all kinds of legend and lore about it in the basement, if you get on the basement, that's like their little Healing Center. It's not a healing center where you go to get healed, but people that come there and visit this, this hallowed place, you'll see crutches, packs of cigarettes, needles, if you had a drug addiction, walkers that are no longer needed, breathing devices that are whatever it is. People come there and they get healed of these things. I actually attended church there at the time. I was still going to church, and there was a guy named Brother Andrew who worked there, and he was kind of a character. He smoked a lot of cigarettes, and he kind of held the grounds together at Carrie, and so I knew him very well. So anyway, back to my story. Maureen has come up for the weekend, and she's having some soul searching, drinking too much. What does she want to do with her life? Next steps, she feels stagnant. I had just moved to Findlay after having some major financial problems in my. Early 20s, I moved to Findlay and got a full time job, and I had been there for a year, and this was@the.com boom, when it people were in such demand and all these new skill sets and that type of thing. And so I had a job offer in Boston at the time. However, my parents lived in Columbus. Still, my brother lived in Columbus. My life was in Ohio, but it was huge money to move to Boston, and I had this lovely house in Findlay, and this very stable, great job, and I, for all intents and purposes, was very happy, and so I couldn't imagine leaving it, but then the call of financial improvement and wellness was there, and so I didn't know what to do. So point and take it. We were both kind of melancholy nuts at the time, and so I drug her kicking and screaming. I'm like, we're gonna go visit Carrie, because she would just want to go the bar and go drinking and have fun. And I'm like, we will do that. But first thing we're gonna do is we're gonna go to this place and we're just gonna write our letter of intention down there and this healing place and just see what happens. And it's a beautiful place, if for any other reason you go there. I mean, it's just a beautiful piece of architecture, but so we go, Maureen's pissed. We're there. It's night time, so it's dark down in the basement. It's one of those Catholic churches. When you walk down the basement, you smell the smell of paraffin wax. It's the smell, if you've been to those churches, you know very well it's very spiritual. Dark in there, candle lit and just beautiful. There's all these statues, St Catherine of Siena sticks out to me as one of them, and just a very special place. And so we get down there, and we're walking around, and we're thinking about what we want to ask, you know, kind of like when you do manifestation and some of this witchy stuff, you know, what do you really want answering? Getting to the heart of the heart of the question is part of the battle out of the shadows down there comes brother, Andrew. I told you about him. He worked at Carrie, and he's this quirky old man. He's probably five foot four, so relatively short, Italian and just in your face, funny, comedic, but also just something about him, like, it's like he knew you. And so he walks out of the corner, and he just starts talking, and this is what he says, Yeah, you know, one time I was thinking about taking a job up in New England, I think it was Boston, Massachusetts, and I realized that I liked it where I was, and money isn't everything, and I think it was best for me, and my life has never been better. And so I just decided just to throw in the towel. And at that particular time, I was drinking myself into a stupor. It wasn't a funny evening if alcohol wasn't involved, and I was the ringleader on

the drinking and I could drink them all under the table until I couldn't. And one day, I woke up and I decided I'd had enough of that, and I got help, and I've never had a drink since. I don't know why. I just told you guys that stuff, but these are just parables. I think you should know how you doing. Brian, that's how the conversation went. I have my friend Maureen. We are still in contact. She will tell you that that night was the beginning of her sobriety. She hasn't touched alcohol since I stayed put in Findlay and continued to cultivate my career in IT and followed my sixth sense to tell me not to leave. But why did that man know all that information? This information was talked about between me and Maureen. We drove 15 miles south of where we were, went to the basement of this church, this Basilica, and here comes this quirky old man to tell us our destiny. And it was relevant to the point of talking about the city of Boston. I had a job offer in the city of Boston to be a database administrator at that time, he didn't know that. Why would he know that? Why would he know that Maureen was struggling with drinking too much and it was time for her to put the bottle down? Why would he relate those stories to us? And so my point in telling you I don't even like to use the word paranormal on this, but this is all spiritual stuff. You were listening to, intentional spiritual living, living with Brian. And this is the stuff that I live for. This is the stuff that I seek out, these moments where there's a glimmer of proof in the corner, a glimmer of hope that there is something more I don't have hope I know there is. I've seen so many hauntings and this experience at Cary, and what I'm going to tell you on the next episode that's been happening over at the building I own, at cricket cottage escape rooms, and how my crystal grid, the I have a power crystal grid sitting over there right now. And we've had some major things happening, and some major I don't like to use the word disturbances, because it's all friendly and good, but just proof, proof, proof, friends, it's bigger than you. It's bigger than me. There's something out there, and that makes me smile, and that makes me get excited about tomorrow, and I hope that I by listening to this, I know you guys feel the same way, and I love telling these haunting stories. And. So next week, we're going to talk all about the hauntings at crooked cottage escape rooms, what we've experienced, what my contractors have experienced, what we have proof of as of last week on video, very interesting and fun stuff. I hope you enjoyed the part one of my paranormal series in how these things have happened in my life, and I can't wait to share more with you. All right, friends, coming up, we are going to pull three tarot cards and see what mother universe wants us to know for the week ahead, looking forward to it. You all right, let's talk Tarot. I got my cards right here, and I'm gonna pull them as we speak. I had

shuffled them at my break. Here goes I have pulled Major Arcana three, the Empress, the ace of pentacles and Major Arcana one, the magician. Reversed again, the Empress, ace of pentacles and the magician. What does the universe want us to know? This is a very nuanced reading, not one for beginners. I will say so. Anytime we see the Empress, we want to think about nurturing ourselves with abundance, creativity and growth, self love, Mother Nature, nurturing aspects of life, if you will. When we talk about the ace of pentacles, anytime we have an ace on the PIP card. So whether it be pentacles, wands, swords or cups, it's always about new beginnings. And in this particular instance, we're talking about the suit of pentacles. So it's everything to do with manifestation, prosperity, material success. And then we have the magician reversed. And that's where the nuanced part of this reading comes in. Because you have those two positive cards. You know, we're loving ourself, if you will, we're taking care of ourself. We're nurturing our life. And we have a new beginning, a possibility to cha ching to get some more coins. One bad thing, if you will, one thing to keep your eye on when you deal with aces and Tarot is that they are possibilities. They're new possibilities, and they require work. They require follow through on our part. And a lot of times people will get a Tarot reading and they'll get an ace of pentacles. Is a good one because, oh, I have a new way to make money. This is going to land in my lap. No, that's the universe telling you and telling us that, hey, I'm presenting you this opportunity, and it's ripe for you, but it's going to require getting in the weeds and getting down to it and running towards it and getting your goal. If you don't follow through, you won't get it. But what does this was magician reversed mean. So if I'm to look at this again, let me reiterate, we've got the the Empress and the ace of pentacles. So if I just took those two and I told a little story, it's like I'm firing on all eight cylinders. I have my priorities, right? My life is in order. I'm nurturing myself with self love. I'm taking care of myself. And now is a ripe time to begin this new thing that I've had, this idea that has been sprouting in my mind, and now it's time to fertilize it and run with it. But then the magician reversed. What does it mean? So how I would say that this how I would read this for someone, you're manipulating yourself. It's a blockage in your personal power and a misuse or mis guidance of your talent. So it's internal manipulation. You can do this goal, and you have everything in order and in place to do so, but you're blocked internally. You're struggling to manifest your desire. And it's a, it's a it's a lack of focus and belief in yourself and ultimately, perhaps a clear intention. Remember, we talk about these new beginnings and aces and how they're possibilities, but we have to work the process to get them to come through. But you're manipulating yourself into believing and something is just not right, and so you're a little lackluster in your execution, and it's all internal manipulation and lack of direction, if that makes sense. And so a I'm trying to think of an example to to throw out here for you. So let me think, okay, so as we all know, I run two stores called ravens cauldron, and I also run an escape room complex called cricket cottage escape room. So let's just hypothetically say that I've now decided I want to open up a donut store. I do not want to open up a donut store be the last thing on earth I want to do it. Let's just say I do. You know I financially okay that Empress card I am investing appropriately. My health is good. I'm nurturing my life so that is checked. This is a new money making opportunity. I've done some market research, let's say, and I'm gonna put this in Kalamazoo, Michigan, and I know that it is lacking a donut shop and it the possibilities are real, and I am ready to do it. I pull my tarot, and I get these cards and I get this magician that's reversed. How am I manipulating myself? How am I having a lack of direction? How am I misusing my talents in order to get this it's a warning not to do this project, or if I do it, to rethink it and get a clearer plan. Well, it's pretty simple in my mind for my myself, personally, and I would be able to translate this to a queer that was asking this question, is that my talents are needed here in Delaware, Ohio, I've got two stores to run, plus an escape room complex, plus rental properties, plus my own house, plus my pets I have. I am a control freak, and when I run my businesses, I want to be there all the way up until the day that they're running, and then weeks after to make sure it's running like a well oiled machine. I cannot be in Kalamazoo, Michigan, and be here. If I'm going to do that, it's going to be to the detriment of my current businesses, unless I get a clearer plan and make and move some levers. That's what the magician reversed is trying to tell us when we're talking about an empress and an ace of pentacles, and that's how I would read that for someone. So for the weeks ahead, if you have something that you've been wanting to do that you think is a great idea, and it's time to do it, evaluate it from all angles, and don't make an emotional decision about it, and you'll be just fine. And that is our tarot reading for the week. And just like that, Episode Four is a wrap. Thank you guys so much for tuning in. I'm having such a wonderful time recording Season Three with covid.
