Psychic Medium & Author Bill Philipps | How to Connect with Spirit

Season 3, Ep. 103
"We Will Always Grow If We Let The Light Guide Us." I have been fascinated with death, the deceased, and the afterlife for as long as I can recall. There I was, just a young boy, seeing spirits and not knowing what to make of it! Despite my panic and fear, I thought these experiences were “normal.” I mean, didn’t every kid at school see them too? Sadly, no, others were not experiencing what I did. Even more frustrating was that I couldn’t find the right words to explain the feeling and sensation inside me when it happened. My mom would tell me I had watched too many scary movies. After a while, I started to accept her well-intentioned, rational explanations, and these experiences eventually faded away.
Then my world ended at the age of 14 when I suffered what I thought at the time was a horrible tragedy. Little did I know it would lead me on my life’s journey. My mom and I lived on opposite coasts when she suddenly fell ill, and I raced to her with barely enough time before she passed away. Upon her death, I was at a loss for words. How could she be gone? Two days later, I woke in the middle of the night to see my mom standing before my bed in spirit. I can still remember opening my eyes and seeing the room illuminated with a beautiful light. I thought I was dreaming at first but soon realized this was no dream. She spoke to me and told me she was all better and not to worry about her anymore. Over the next three years, my fascination with her death and this experience compelled me to research it further and investigate “the other side.”
I remember an experience hanging out with some friends and randomly walking into a psychic’s reading room, part of a strip mall. Before I could open my mouth, the psychic began to tell me that I was highly gifted but not ready to accept this truth about myself just yet. It would be a few years before I truly understood what she meant. Soon after I turned 18, and after feeling more and more drawn for answers, I found myself alone, attending a lecture on mediumship, or at least I thought this was a lecture. I soon realized that it was a class on developing your psychic skills and that this particular night was a special class on mediumship. How convenient! The moment I walked in, the two teachers greeted me, and both marveled at how my energy filled the room.
This lovely middle-aged woman asked me a question, and one of the teachers instructed me to close my eyes and then say what I was seeing, feeling, hearing, etc. I did precisely that, but it didn’t feel special; it was just what she told me to do. When I opened my eyes, though, the nice woman was shocked, speechless, and couldn’t believe all the validations I had just shared with her.
They referred to my suddenly validated gift as "the golden link" to the other side, and I made it my mission to hone my skills by practicing with friends. Within one month of doing professional readings, I finally accepted this was a part of who I am. This gift was my true calling, and I was grateful for the opportunity to help others.

  • 209. Galactic Historian Debbie Solaris Reads My Akashic Records

    01:00:37||Season 5, Ep. 209
    Debbie Solaris is an ET contactee, interdimensional traveler, and galactic historian. A few years ago, after a fateful extraterrestrial contact experience, Debbie awakened to her true star lineage and higher calling. Through her ancestral connection with the Akashic Records, she has been receiving downloads of galactic historical information and universal spiritual knowledge ever since. She feels it’s a significant part of her mission here on Earth to help awaken others to their own true Divine selves and cosmic origins. Debbie stumbled upon the metaphysical scene "almost by accident," as she describes it, and calls herself a “real late bloomer” on the spiritual path. She had a conventional and conservative Roman Catholic upbringing in a military family where “aliens and UFOs were just never discussed,” and what mattered was the material world we inhabit. Although she had an ordinary childhood, she always felt ‘different’ from the people around her, as she was much more sensitive and introspective than her family members. She spent her formative years traveling with her family throughout Europe and Australia, soaking up all of the history, art, and culture of each place they visited. "I was fortunate to have loving and progressive parents who wanted us to experience the world and everything it had to offer." After spending several years on active duty in the military, earning a Bachelor's Degree in Science, and working in the environmental field as a civilian, Debbie met her life partner, Terry, who was (and still is) a UFO enthusiast and introduced her to the world of extraterrestrials and the paranormal.  “Even then, I was pretty skeptical,” she recalls. Although Terry has had a lifelong curiosity and fascination with aliens and UFOs, they didn’t seem real to her, especially as a scientist and environmentalist. Debbie currently lives in Castle Rock, Colorado, with her significant other Terry. Sadly, her Sphynx cat Piglet, Debbie's registered therapy cat, loved by many fans on social media, passed away on Nov. 15, 2017 (see the "Piglet" pages on this site). Debbie now shares her home with Raisin, an older rescue kitty who is a Donskoy, a Russian hairless breed.
