People often ask me - how long I have been psychic, did I always know I was psychic and do I come from a psychic background, in other words was it passed on or handed down to me. The answer is we are all born psychic and as a child I did not think I was a descendant of a psychic, but it transpired as I got older and began to develop that my grandmother was indeed psychic and was stopped by my grandfather. This was not talked about within the family when I was a child so knew nothing about it until I was in my early twenties.
As a child my mother was frightened by psychic stuff and thought, like many people that the Tarot cards were evil. This led to a lot of confusion for me as a young girl growing up, as a close neighbour who was also my friends mum was indeed psychic.
I don't recall my first meeting with this family as I was only three years old when we moved into the house I was to call home for almost thirty five years in total. The neighbours name was June and her daughter who was to become one of my closest friends was called Lynda. Lynda was eighteen months younger than myself and as the years began to pass, we grew closer and closer as friends. Sure we had our quarrels, like most children growing up, but I can honestly say that she was, and still is, the sister I never had. Lynda also had two brothers, one about nine months older than myself and another younger than Lynda. Now as I think back to what we got up to as children, I shudder, as some of it was quite dangerous.
The family became quite well known in our small area of the Rhyddings in Neath, asJune did not keep her psychic abilities quiet, being quite open about what she saw and felt. There was one occasion that I remember, when she informed one of the neighbours that she had seen 'the Feet of Jesus' walking on the other side of the road opposite our house, this led to many people thinking she was a bit strange, and not really to be taken seriously. I think this is one of my earliest recollections of what some people thought of her in general. However for me - she became like a second mum and probably my earliest psychic mentor. For many others, they grew to know and love her for the wonderful person she was.
As a person she was very open, welcoming, loving, friendly and available. I know that may sound a strange way of describing someone - available - but during my early teenage years, my own mum worked, and did not arrive home until after well after 6pm most evenings. By which time she was mostly tired and after an evening meal, which was more often than not cooked by my father, she would fall asleep in front of the telly. June on the other hand, did not work. so, on coming home from school, I would find myself rushing into my own house, dumping my school gear and hurtling around to my friends house, often before she had even arrived home herself. Later in life I realised that this was because I didn't like being alone in the house. Lynda on the other hand enjoyed spending time in my house as she found it quieter and calmer than her own house and we would frequently spend time talking, playing records, shrinking empty crisp packets over an open fire and mulling over current events and issues. It is often strange how we perceive other’s home lives. I sort of envied her, as I found her mother to be quite fascinating and loved to be in her company. Lynda on the other hand, always felt that my home was a happy home, where as her environment was quite sad at times. This was due in the main to June being ill with an undiagnosed cancer, but that is another story for another time.
I have to admit to having a very happy childhood as far as my parents were concerned. They were both very loving and giving parents and always, without a shadow of a doubt made me feel loved. But there was always this confusion for me, between being drawn so strongly towards the psychic awareness of June and the fear that came from within my own mother.
