Spiritual Interruptions - Messages from beyond the veil

I don't know that I'll ever get used to having a random spirit tap into my subconscious out of the blue. Of course most of those that come to me have a message that needs to be delivered urgently, and it's usually not a positive one. As an empath, it becomes a challenge to ensure I don't take on the emotions of either the message sender or the receiver. I'm merely a conduit, but when it involves someone I care about in my life (or even about myself) it becomes particularly tricky. As hard as it is to maintain those energetic boundaries, I am also met with an overwhelming sense of gratitude. Gratitude that I have been given this gift, and that the spirits that visit me trust me enough to not only translate but deliver their message to their loved ones.

  I've been visited several times in the past two months (since I had my awakening). Family members of two of my closest friends have come through, and I've been visited by my dad. That was weird, since I hadn't really spoken with him in 20 years or so. Each time, I apply due diligence to understand the message I'm being given. I ask the spirit for confirmation that I interpreted their message correctly, which is important especially when it's concerning news. I fully expect that these sorts of interruptions will continue as long as I continue to practice and strengthen my skills. It comes with the territory, but it's still a strange feeling.
