Interest of the afterlife is growing strongly by the minute because now when we lose someone we love, we’re not afraid of admitting that we want to know that they are still with us. Rightly so I think. We cared about them when they were here on the Earth Plane so why shouldn’t we care when they pass over?
The main questions I hear from people I know are;
- Are my loved ones ok?
- Where are my loved ones?
- Are my loved ones still around me?
- What happened when they died?
- Are they still in any pain?
- Were they alone or did someone meet them?
These are all questions we all ask at some point in our lives; even I ask them. They are also questions that we ask to gain comfort from a most painful, confusing and terrifying time. It is through my work with the spiritual realms that I’ve gained insight into these questions. Hopefully it will help many of you to heal from your experiences and help comfort you to know that you can reach your loved ones easily with a few simple guidelines I’ll share with you.
Firstly let’s answer some of the questions most frequently asked about the afterlife.
My loved one recently died, are they ok?
Yes! They are absolutely fine; they are no longer in any pain or suffering. When the passing took place your loved one didn’t feel a thing. They are happy now they don’t have a physical body to weigh them down or cause pain for them. Most importantly, they are being taken care of.
Are my loved ones still around me?
Your loved ones are right with you now!!! In truth they have not gone anywhere. The only change is that they have left their earthly body behind and have truly transformed into their true self. If you still your mind and ask your loved one to give you a sign that they are still around you, you will definitely get a sign. Just be open to what that sign is though. They like to surprise us.
Where are my loved ones?
Your loved ones are in a lovely place called the ‘Spirit World’. It is on the same level as the earth plane, it’s just what you could describe as the Invisible Version. You don’t need to worry about your loved ones – they are being looked after by family, friends and the angels.
Are they still in any pain?
No! Your loved one is free from pain and was so the second their spirit left their body. The spirit world is not about pain or suffering. It’s about happiness and learning, being free and able to enjoy just being you.
What happened when they died?
You must remember and understand that there was no pain at all when your loved one passed over into the spirit world. They were not alone. It would have felt something like drifting off into a deep sleep and then waking up somewhere else, only they would have been aware of everything that was happening. A loved one, a friend, an angel or spiritual guide would have been waiting for them and would have helped them ease into their new life
It is normal for us to worry about our family and friends but we must try not to worry when they pass over because they are okay. We all have understandable worries about the passing of a loved one, but you don’t need to worry. We are constantly surrounded by the angels and we can amplify their presence by simply thinking of them, asking them to draw near to us, and even imagining they are right by our side, as in truth they are. God would never let any of his children pass from one world to the next without family, friends, spirit guides and their celestial guardian assisting them, walking every step of the way with them.
WAYS IN WHICH TO FACILITATE CONTACT WITH YOUR LOVED ONES
The first thing that you can do is visit a medium that is well recommended to see if they can bring you a message from your loved one. You must remember it is not the medium that brings your loved ones, it is you. Don’t be disheartened if the person that does come to say hello to you isn’t the person you wanted as they may very well have an important message for you, and your preferred loved one may be resting, or adjusting to the spirit world.
Make an altar in remembrance of all your loved ones. This can be done with a small table or bookshelf where you place a photo of your loved ones, a vase of their favourite flowers, perhaps they had a favourite book or personal item that you could place here. Also a pure white candle, pillar or tea light to aid purity and communication would also be favourable. Remember it doesn’t have to be all glitz and glamour like in the movies, it’s important it is a true representation of the love that was shared between the both of you.
Write them a letter, just like you would to a friend you haven’t seen for a while. Ask them how they are finding it in their new home (the spirit world), also ask them about anything that is worrying you and always tell them how much you love them. Place this under your pillow before you go to sleep and your loved one may enter your dreams with the answers to your questions. You may need to do this for a few nights as it may take them a while to understand how to do dream visitations.
My favourite one, ask them to give you a sign to show they are with you. Don’t be specific on what you want the sign to be. Let them do it in their own way and surprise you. They will never do anything to frighten you. They loved you when they were on Earth. Nothing will change that. Not even passing to the spirit world.

Hello,
I have just read your article ‘where is your loved one’ and it brought me comfort. I very recently lost my mum and I have been getting a few signs. Thankyou for your help.
Hello, I have just read your artical, and it also gave me comfort, my girlfriend passed away last year, I believe she was around me for a while, but since I moved It seems she snt around anymore, is she ok? is she angry with me? thankyou
I lost a member of My Family, and I haven,t been coping too well at all,I cry everyday with the worry of His suffering,and the terrible guilt I feel because I took Him to the place and left him,where He was later murdered.I read your article ‘where is your loved one’ Thankyou,it helps to give me some hope that maybe one day I will get a sign that He is still with Me in spirit and knows just how much I miss Him and love Him,and how sorry I am.
Thank you all for reading my article but most of all may I just let you all know that my thoughts of love, peace and healing as well as strength are with you all at this time. My heart seriously goes out to all three of you lovely people. I am also very sorry that I haven’t replied sooner to this.
Any one of you can contact me directly for a chat via my email: auroraangelicascension@gmail.com
Paul: Lovely, she is not angry with you at all. How could she be? She loved you. She still does. The reason that you felt she was not around at that time was for many reasons, one being that you had recently moved and were settling into your new home which she knew would eventually bring you much happiness, however she was very much with you. I feel that if you think back to when you were arranging your furniture…there was something in the living room that you moved several times because “it simply didn’t feel right there…your girlfriend would have told you that it would look better somewhere else”. She was with you then. Also, you were feeling very sad as you had moved home without her, this made you close yourself up emotionally and unable to feel her gentle touch. Paul please know that she loves you immensely and always will do. She wants you to be happy and make her proud of you. She is sending you a tender kiss for your cheek. xxxxxxxxx
Joanne: I shall message you directly. xxx
Joanne: First of all, please do not feel guilty for what happened. It was not your fault. I know that as a Mum you feel protective of your children. But please, he does not want you to blame yourself anymore. He wants you to know that he is ok, worried about you, but he himself, he is in no pain what so ever. He is very much aware of your love for him and hopes you know that he loves you too… for everything you did. He is saying that it is not your job to be sorry, you have nothing to be sorry for. He would like you to release your guilt, he’s saying “Don’t carry around someone else’s guilt”, Let it go. He wants you to remember him for the good things, the good times, the happy moments. Remember me with love…is what he’s saying. He’s saying that he’s sent you signs but you haven’t noticed… “typical” he says (he’s laughing). For some strange reason he is talking about ‘smelly socks’… and walks with the dog.Also Formula 1 racing. You talk to his picture…. he’s right beside you, listening. Watch for the shivers down your right arm and left side… this is when he’s giving you a hug. He wants you to try a fun activity that he wanted to do… he wants you to do it for him…and he’ll be there in spirit doing it with you. He’s saying “Tell her its sky-diving”…He’s laughing../joking… He say’s “No, she knows what I really wanted to do”.
He is such a happy, fun loving young man. He’s as content as he can be. he’s blowing you a kiss and with that the petals off a single red rose are being scattered around you. He said, “My love is always surrounding you… Always.”
I hope Joanne, that this has brought you some comfort. Please email me if you would like to talk further. I send you all the love in the world hun, and lots of strength and healing. xxxx
Aurora thank you for this article you are a truly wonderful person. My Grandmother passed away on the 30/10/10 and her service was sthe 3/11/10. I miss her so much and love her more than words can describe and I would just really love to know that she is okay and in no more pain. I would love for her to give me a sign that she is with me sometimes but I feel that if I ask I will think that any random noise will be a sign when it isn’t. Will the sign be clear? And if I talk will she hear me? Please respond when you have a little free time. Thank you. Stuart x
Hi Stuart, Bless you for your kind comments. I am very sorry to hear about you Grandmother.
Your Grandmother is ok hun, please know this. She is in no pain. im hearing the Name Bill…. she’s with him. If you can’t think of who he is, ask around as it may be a name he was known as. She’s talking about a brooch of hers, and a Dragonfly pin she had. She says when you see a picture or hear of a dragonfly…it’s her saying “Hello, I love you, I’m here with you”. So your sign will be very clear. Also if you ask her to send u a sign, be open to other signs she will send you as they will make perfect sense. She will hear you, if you talk to her in your head, send her a thought, she’ll hear it. If you feel tingling on ur right side, the top of your arm, its her letting you know that she’s there.
If you want to talk further, then feel free to email me auroraangelicascension@gmail.com or contact me via my website http://www.aurorabrierley.webs.com
Love and peace to you hun,
Aurora xxx
Firstly I thank the universe for guiding me to your website after a never ending search in one of many dark moments recently. I say this because I have become very work focused in order to cope and being a single parent of two beautiful souls I tend to push away the grief which inevitably catches up with you during the rare moments I have time to myself. I lost my mum 14 Nov 2010, a date I will never forget as my birthday was 24 Nov. Mum’s strength was unsurpassing during her battle with cancer of 17 years, I know I have been blessed to have had that tiime with her but those years were not easy for mum nor other family members. In mum’s last days of life here on earth it was unbearably painful to see her suffer. I feel such mixed emotions and yet I am aware of the stages of grief but what I can’t understand is I too have been blessed with psychic abilities and have given and still give messages for others from beyond but I feel ashamed to say that I carry the burden of anger towards mum because she hasn’t come to me or showed definate signs, I have had, well I imagine some signs, but I must admit I have lost some some faith in the spiritual realm. I can’t bring myself to let her go and I need to know did mum pass away peacefully in her sleep not suffering in her last moments in Hospital between 10pm – 12am, a nurse found mum passed away on her round and is mum finally with her 1st born son, who mum grieved and eternity for. Please give me some solace by replying
My daughter died on the 24th November 2010 and I am heartbroken. I feel such deep grief. She took her own life after being ill for 5 months, eventually going into a deep depression. She was always such a happy girl and looking forward to her wedding which would have been in July last year. She was buried in her wedding dress. I just want to know that she is safe with family that have passed on. Can you give me any proof that she is with them?
Thank you.
Hi Jo,
I am so so sorry for your loss, and I have to tell you first and foremost, your Mum felt no pain at all. She was very calm and peaceful during those hours. She’s telling me that it felt like the sun had come out and was shining so beautifully after what she describes as a long dark winter of illness. I can see her lying in the bed, seeing and feeling the sun (in the spirit world) smiling, with lots of tropical bird flying around her. Jo she wasn’t alone, She is adament that I tell you that there were lots of family and friends from spirit there with her. She knows you worry about her being alone, but there is no need to. SHE WAS NOT ALONE.
She is with “her boy” and says how he keeps saying that you should all go surfing, fall off and have a good laugh for him.
I feel she passed close to 12am no earlier than 11:30pm.
You have felt the signs of her Jo, it’s just as you know grief can make it harder for our loved ones to draw near to us and in fact make it very hard for us to feel them and notice the signs. She says, keep an eye open for the “big sign” and scattered rose petals. She loved the scent of roses so when you smell roses, she’s around you.
Please release the anger and guilt you have, it is only harming yourself and your Mum doesnt want that. She is sorry for leaving you before your birthday, but it was her time to go. She was with you that day, and is most days. She says that you musnt get upset on Mothers Day this year, She’s still your mum, and shes still with you. No tears! She wants you to do something special on Mothers Day with your beautiful children, and she’ll be there with you. She says, “if you must, get me a small bunch of pink roses, put them in a vase, and ill scatter the rose petals for you” She sends you so much love Jo, she really is ok, shes free of pain and is rather back to her “teenage” years, very much full of happiness and energy.
if you EVER feel you need to talk then please email me without hesitation and I WILL reply personally. AuroraAngelicAscension@gmail.com
Stay strong Jo, and I send you so much love and strength and healing xxxxxx
Hello; I would like to share our amazing experience with connecting with a loved one in the afterlife. Our son Billy crossed over on June 26 2004, eight months after our son Billy crossed over we had a reading with a spirit messenger which was amazing and about two months after that we began and continue to receive many signs from our son Billy, mostly through photograpgs, of which the heart shaped images of the moon and christmas tree lights are our favorite.
Anyone may visit our website http://www.oursonbilly.com and read our story and view a few pages of some of the type of signs that we continue to receive from Billy.
God Bless
Guy
Hi, Aurora,
I notice in your description of the process of dying that you make no mention of what all people who have had near death experiences have reported. That is, the travelling at great speed down a dark tunnel towards a very bright light. You simply say that a person goes to sleep and wakes up in the spirit world.
There have only been three people in my life who really loved me and thought the world of me. My Godmother; my mother and a very close friend who was with me for thirty years. My Godmother passed on in 1964 when I was 17; my mother passed on in 1986 and my dear friend passed on in great distress (he was very ill) in 2002. Despite my closeness to these three when they were in this world and the fact that I loved them as much as they loved me, I have heard absolutely nothing from them since they passed on. They seem simply to have disappeared. They could have long since reincarnated for all I know, in which case they won’t be there to help me cross over when my time comes.
Now we come to my late father, to whom I was not close in any way. In fact, I hated him for the terrible things he did to us. I understand now that he had had some terrible experiences during the war (the second world war, that is) and came home suffering from what today would be known as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, a condition that wasn’t recognised back in the 1940s. Very mentally disturbed veterans returning home from the conflict were simply told to pull themselves together and get on with it. He died in 1970 aged 60 and riddled with cancer. I wasn’t in the least bit upset when he died. But a year ago, forty years after he died; a strange thing happened. I woke up one morning and was surprised to see him standing by my bed looking down at me expressionless. He looked as real as a real, solid person. He was wearing a pale green shirt; dark brown, creased trousers and shiny light brown shoes. He didn’t look like the cancer-ridden 60 year old from 1970, but as he looked when he was a young man, say in his early twenties and looked a picture of health. I was startled to see him and when he saw my alarm, he slowly disappeared. First, the middle part of him went, then the bottom part and finally the top part, each one like a light being switched off. This was the first time in my life that I’d seen a spirit and I’ve seen nothing like it since.
Now the question here is this: Why have I seen nothing of my long departed Godmother; mother and close friend and yet, after forty years, I suddenly have a visit as plain as day from my father, when I had no love from him when he was alive? Intriguing, isn’t it?
Hi Guy,
I am terribly sorry it has taken me so long to reply to your comment posting. I’m sure that you will appreciate that I am writing for other publications, and obviously doing psychic readings. I also hold down a full time job as a teacher as well as running groups online & answering emails. So I’m rather a busy lady, But I do try and get back to all the articles I’ve written and to read your comments and reply. Just bear with me. I promise I do read all of the comments that you leave me and I am deeply appreciative of them.
You’re experience after loosing your son (Which I am so sorry to hear that you have experienced, a parent should never have to lose their child) are very warming to hear about. I will take a look at your website and of course I will add a link to it on my website for others to visit.
I’m so pleased that Billy is making contact with you through modern technology, showing that there truly are no limitations.
Thank you so much for sharing with me and also all the readers of this article and magazine. I know that they will find comfort from it.
Much love to you and your wife
Aurora xxxxxx
Hi David,
Thank you for your comment.
Indeed I do mention it in its simplicity at what happens due to the nature that I wrote this article for. It is purely a quick FAQ for people who don’t want the long drawn out deep detailed version, but would like a quick answer to their questions at a painful time. I can (and have) in other publications and online articles wrote at detail the things you mention such as the white bright light that so many report seeing when they experience a Near Death Experience. Which brings me to my next point, This article is NOT about Near Death Experience but actually about what happens AFTER actual death (in simplicity).
I can also reassure you that your Godmother, Mother and friend may have indeed re-incarnated since, but their soul aspect that you recognise to be them WILL be there to comfort you at your passing. If you think of the WHOLE soul of our being being like a diamond, multi-faceted, the aspect that you know to be, for example, your mother is only 1 of those many many facets. (Books by Silver Birch, available from the Psychic News Bookshop, Stanstead, you can google would be most helpful to you to expand your knowledge and understanding of this)
Now for your Father, whom you have “no love for”. When we pass to spirit we go through a pahse where we have a life review. In this life review we see Everything as we never saw it before, we see it from other people’s point of view etc. What could have possibly happened (What I believe to have happened) is that your Father was made aware of the relationship between both himself and you, he felt everything that you ever felt for him, the ways he made you feel. it would be like stepping into your shoes, your emotions, feelings, thoughts, etc. This can offer the soul, in this case, your Fathers soul the opportunity to put right what he did wrong. I believe he showed himself to you, rather not as a “hello, Im ok, Im no longer in any pain” message, but rather a “I know how you feel about me, I am sorry. Please forgive me?” Message. Im not suggesting that you forgive him right now, you may never find that love in your heart for him, which is not a problem. This is your life, your choice. But resentment, anger, hatred, all thos enegative feelings don’t eat away at the ones we feel them for, they eat away at us and can stop us from being happy. One thing I advise my clients in this situation to do would be to light a white candle for purity, and say, “Dad, I forgive you for not being the person I thought you were. I forgive you, I forgive myself and I release us both”. Then blow out the candle. (Tea lights are perfect for this)
This way, you are not condoning his behaviour but setting you both free.
The reason behind you not seeing the ones you do love? It’s simply not the right time yet. It will happen. When its the right time for it to. Everything is in perfect timing, you can’t rush something to happen if its not meant to just yet.
I do hope that what ive said has helped in some way. Please feel free to contact me directly via my email which I check Daily!

Thank you for your reply, Aurora. I must say, I can’t take in what you say about one part of the soul being reincarnated while another part of the soul remains in the spirit world to greet loved ones as they go over. As for forgiving my father, I have never forgiven anyone in my life and have no experience of doing so and don’t know how to. But I would imagine there is far more to forgiving someone than just saying those three words and whatever that something is, I haven’t got it. Although I live in a big city, I don’t know of any shops or stores here that sell candles any more, so a candle would be a difficult thing for me to come across.I have no idea what a Tea light is, either. Best Wishes from David.
My mom passed away March 28, 2011. I was researching and came to your site. I was blessed to be able to spent time with her before she left the earth. Gave all I coould to keep her happy and helped her as much as possible with my sons. We had to carry her to wheelchair and to her bed..since she could no longer walk. I still cry and get depress. I get goose bumps whenever I think of her. My father has seen her twice! Once she was sitting by me he said. I have not seen her and wish I could. I have white flowers and a white candle by her picture. when I light her candle, I always ask God to give her light and prosperity to her spirit. Mother’s Day was of course the worse day for me this year since she is gone. I miss her and pray someday I will see her again. I cannot even continue writing now since I am crying again. God bless you all who have lost a loved one and thank you for your articles. It has brought me hope.
Dear Aurora,
I’m taking leap of faith in contacting you, but I just feel a need to. My husband died recently after a Road Traffic accident at the end of March 2011, he asked me to go with him and I said no, it’s a decision I regret hourly never mind daily. I keep going over everything in my head, the last time we were together, our last conversations, everything. I knew my husband really well, or I thought I did and I just don’t know what to do, how to keep on going other than I have to. Our life was just about to start together, it was cut short literally the day before many of the future plans could start. I don’t know whether he is here with me or how to encourage him to be with me, if that is possible. All I keep thinking is I that I could have another 40 years or so to wait until I see you again… I miss him dreadfully
hi my name is laura,ive just lost my fiance on the 25 of may 2011.it was very sudden in his sleep.he was only 34.we were to be married.in june….i feel or hope he is around me.i keep feeling on my left arm coldness like tingles i dont know if its just me hoping he is near me.but it is a nice thought to have him here,xxx

Joanna: Sweetheart, I can feel your pain. Soemtimes we’ll never know why things happen, this is one of those times. He very much loves you and doesn’t want you to put your life on hold. He wants you to live your life to the full. Do it fo rhim. Some of those plans can still go ahead, he would be very happy and proud of you if you found the strength to carry them through for him. He will be by your side until the day you join him in spirit. (You have along way to go yet) Talk to him, he’s still there. If you like, sit with a photo of him and talk to him. You’ll hear thoughts of what he’d say…he’s talking to you and you will feel silly at first, but in ime you’ll find the strength to smile again. He says you have a beautiful smile, it’s one of the first things he was attracted to. You were the light in his heart, you lit up his life from the moment he first saw you. He wants you to think of all the happy times my lovely, don’t dwell on the sadness, it’s not good for anyone.
Know that he around you Joanne, xxxxx
Laura: I am sorry for your loss my lovely. He is very much around you sweetheart and don’t for one second think that he doesn’t love you with all his heart and soul. He is always close by and he hears your thoughts. He misses you too and wants you to be happy. He’ll never leave you but will watch over you, ensuring you’re happy. xxxx
Anil, First of all, Im sorry for your loss. Secondly, you must make sure that you speak to your GP about your feelings, they will understand and be able to help you. Your fiancee was troubled and didnt see any other way. She sees differently now and is sorry for hurting so many people. She is around you,she’s not angry. You are just so distressed that you can’t feel her. It’s a case of trying to hard.
Some says that suicides go hell in the darker realms and some says (Hindus) that they have to linger till their actual time of death but some also says that they Reincarnate i am puzzled for her that what happened to her i saw in dreams her house but without her presence and i am searching the clues for what happened really( in my dreams) and i saw many small bricked half made home. what is this???
Anil,
SOmetime i think about suicide.
Hello SIr, I want to ask one thing that if someone suicides then he is in the darker world he has no organs so cant see hear or listen then how these souls can listen to us feel us or talk to us but can they see us ? one thing more that i listened that suicides stuck them on their place of D>>>h. is it true that they cant go anywhere . my cousin sister suicided ten years ago can my Love and she meet at th astral Plane and see each or talk to each other???
Thank you Aurora, sincerely, thank you so much x
Hello,
I recently lost my boyfriend suddenly. I am not coping with it good at all. Crying all day & night and hardly eating or sleeping. I lost almost a month of work. I keep blaming myself that if I was with him he would still be alive. We spent every weekend together but I had to stay home one weekend but was supposed to go see him on that Sunday but I could not get in touch with him and I never got to see him again. I keep thinking he was mad at me because he didn’t call. I don’t know when or how he died. If he was in pain. Who he was with or if someone did this to him. If he crossed over and if he is ok. Is he with me? I know nothing and I am so heartbroken. i never this much pain before. I need some kind of closure
Hello,
My father was given 7 months to live that was in April 2010, he passed away November 18, 2010. We never told him of the out come of his health when he was released from the hospital. We told him that he was going to get better and he believed us. I need to know if he is angry or upset that we lied to him. He never knew he was dying even till the end. The reason we didn’t tell him the truth is we knew how he was he would of stopped eating and caring. Please responded to me.
Thank you
