Loved Ones Taking You Home

There have been various accounts of people being escorted by departed loved ones before their passing.

Do you think they are Psychopomps or real souls of your cherished kin?

I can't say. But my inkling is that they are the true loved ones.
It's a mystery to me -yet -how they know exactly when the loved one from Earth passes away. Can't get my head around how that works yet.

But it obviously does because I have met a dear one during only an out-of-body experience! I didn't even need to 'die'.

But I do know that a real strong love-bond is not bothered about 'dimensions'. That love already lives in its own dimension. An unbreakable thread between 'worlds'. And I also know as a fact that loved ones in the next world (a very thought-responsive world) can and do respond very quickly, to energies of love sent their way. So it could be that all that we are and all that we love, becomes focussed into a strong force during our passing from this world, and sends out powerful 'beacons'.

When my Mother died she had been seeing loved ones for months in advance of her death. This is apparently quite normal.

My mother was a hospice nurse and has told me that seeing loved ones before you pass on is very normal :) Sometimes the person will start getting visits weeks before they pass away, and sometimes loved ones will come right when the person is about to die to help them along.

I have pre-life memories of having worked as a Psychopomp (I prefer the simpler term Spirit Guide) helping souls both enter and leave the afterlife, and in most cases "real souls of cherished kin" hang around and watch, but don't get involved because they don't have the skilled. The actual situation is similar to paramedics working on a sick or injured person here on the Earth Plane -- relatives and friends who were helping back off when the professionals arrive.

I guess I've mentioned this before and don't mean to be boring....

My mother had advanced dementia. Little she said made rational sense. She was not capable of remembering anything, least of all that she had been married, or my Dad's name. She was nearly 90. My Dad had passed 10 years before.
I went to visit her in the hospice. She became suddenly lucid, and told me my father had visited her, sat on her bed (she recalled his name perfectly) and he asked her "Why don't you just come with me now?"
She told him she would do but not just yet, that she had something to do, then she would. He told her he would wait for her.
She passed about 2 weeks later.

She had no memory even only a few minutes later of what she had said to me. Once more she had no memory of my Dad, his name, or anything.

That was pretty convincing stuff I think. I do feel he visited her because he knew her time was near. The very fact that she was never that lucid, showed me something quite special.
I only really appreciated this with hindsight....

That is so awesome that your mom was able to share with you that your dad visited her, and to let you know that he would be with her when it was her time to go.

very nice.....

I walked in and daisy came up to me with her walking frame and said to me will you take me to see my friend,i said I would we walked up the corridor to another unit and I looked at daisy and said can you see her yes she said I can we stood in the corridor for a little while so daisy could speak to her friend,people thought I was mad,because her friend had passed away two weeks before, she told daisy she would come to collect her soon,the week after daisy was ill in bed I went to see her,and her friend was standing by her bed ready to take her over daisy looked at me and said im going home now then she passed away,i have seen this happen to my own mother my brother was in the room I could see him and I was the only one.my mother suddenly looked to the corner and said my brothers name she passed with a smile on her face,my brother died the day I was to be born.

My aunts death was different to this. I didn't notice any passed over loved ones in the room when she died. Maybe they weren't needed as she was surrounded by intense love as she had her physical family with her (children and husband) when she passed, the love was quite strong in the room. They were all ready for her death.

When she died, a bright golden light appeared, a drawing one in pull to it when one looked at it. The closer one got, the more it drew one to it. My aunt started walking towards this light, it was so bright I couldn't see anything inside of it. I started heading towards it too, following her.

I wanted to watch what happened and though she didn't like pay me any attention of being there, I believe she allowed me to be to share this experience with her, I could feel as she felt from the time she started to die, first with the family in the room and the energy there and then onto this light. (though I wasn't physically present but astral, this experience was how I learnt she died).

The feeling of wanting to go into the light, was like a drug, it was so intense. We reached a point in which I was suddenly stopped .. like suddenly knew I was allowed to go no further (I cant remember now there may of also been some kind of field there stopping me but anyway, I was not allowed to go any closer to it), my aunt vanished into the light and it was the last time Ive seen her.

I only assume she met the family members or whoever was there on the other side of it. That feeling of that light, I will never felt it. I felt so amazing and was so beautiful to see. I know my aunt went to a very high vibrational plane.
