A student asks: “I performed a Spirit Rescue session this morning for two people I knew personally. One was a train conductor I knew and saw most mornings and shared pleasantries with. He was 46 years old and died of a massive heart attack last week. The other was an Aikido associate who died about six years ago that I got to know fairly well. He died painfully of cancer. I get the feeling that both needed rescuing. At least one of them did, based on the kinesthetic feedback I got. Can you check on their status, and if one or both needed rescuing?”

Your overall perception is correct, that both needed rescuing and for differing reasons, but the dilemma was quite similar in that both were stuck and while this can vary with respect to the potential for it to be turned around, it is never a good way to start the transition because things will often deteriorate once the human spirit is set upon by the predators always lurking—the dark spirit meddlers seeking energy at all cost from anything that moves in the way of a human or a human spirit. So there is never a reason to leave these beings to wander. They are always lost—it is a given. There can be a short interval following death of the body when they may tarry because of close attachment to loved ones still among the living and that may be holding them back through a kind of mutual interplay. That is different and a person may well have high enough vibration to be safe for a time on their own in the lower astral plane because they will also be guided and watched, just as they were during physical life, and if they are open and inviting of divine support and protection, will do just fine until they are ready to further transition. So there are a variety of circumstances like this that can happen but your acquaintances both will benefit from your doing this on their behalf.
