Hola!

Well this beautiful sunny weather is getting me ready for Spain!  I am looking forward to meeting up with friends, making new contacts and chilling....  A meditation on the beach is definitely called for - I could bottle the peaceful sound of the sea, couldn't you?.

This week has been really busy as usual but it's all good stuff.  My home-town local press did a write-up about the finals of The People's Book Prize click on the link to read it! http://www.runcornandwidnesweeklynews.co.uk/runcorn-widnes-news/runcorn-widnes-local-news/2013/06/06/runcorn-psychic-alison-wynne-ryder-honoured-at-london-book-awards-55368-

My column this month in Prediction Magazine is about automatic writing and for those of you who have read my book The Quirky Medium you will know that this is something I do regularly with the help of my wonderful spirit guides and the angels.  Automatic writing is a way of connecting to the guidance from your higher self and I ask you to go for it and have a go yourself!  So sharpen your pencils, what are you waiting for?  If you would like to read the magazine, the June edition is in the shops now - you will find it in W. H. Smiths. I didn't realise that I had been writing for the magazine now for a year now!  How time flies when your having fun.  Talking of which, my Mum Joyce who is 80 this year came to the park today with me and my 3 little grand-daughters. Here she is enjoying herself which I feel proves that your inner child should come out and play no matter what age you are!

I don't often get time to read but I do look forward to my Prediction Magazine being delivered and I skip straight away to the horoscopes pages.  Not only are there the usual astrological messages particularly for us Gemini's this month, but I absolutely love the Chinese Horoscope, & Native American Horoscopes.  In the Chinese Horoscope I am a pig!  oh grunt....  which I am happy about because the qualities of the pig are fab especially combined with my astrological sign of Gemini.  Part of the message for us pigs this month is 'At last, things are on the way up Pig!'  Oh how lovely! especially when it says that me and fellow pigs 'will find it easier to rest & recuperate this month'. In the Native American Horoscope I am a Deer and I belong to the butterfly clan. Prediction also includes an Angel-scope for each astrological sign and mine for Gemini is relating to the angels of attention - where attention goes, energy flows. This is so true in terms of The Law of Attraction and Cosmic Ordering, so make sure you are being positive and that you visualise yourself doing something you love to create an abundant future. If you see yourself doing well, you will do well.  Don't let 'Doubting Thomas' rear his ugly head!

As a spiritual life coach I hold classes each week and my students are doing extremely well.  Yesterday I shared a beautiful meditation that I had written about The Nature Goddess who gave each person a healing session and strengthened their third eye - beautiful!

I am really enjoying this beautiful sunshine which we don't get much of in the UK so I am making the most of it when I can.  It's amazing how lovely weather makes us feel so much brighter!. I hope you have a wonderful week.  If you love angels, feel free to join either or both of  my angel pages on Facebook - Angel Magic is a closed group and Archangel Harmony is an open group.  Or you can follow me on twitter @rescuemediumali

I am taking names already for my next Angel Workshop - 'Angel Magic' which is all about getting creative with the angels.  There will be more information coming soon, but the date for your diary is Sunday 15th September 2013.  Please drop me a line via my contacts page if you wish to come along.  Places will be awarded on a first come first served basis.

Just before I go, I thought I would share this gorgeous angel poem my good friend Lorraine wrote for me: - I hope you enjoy it.

With love, light & angel blessings,  The Quirky Medium!

Hi there, beautiful people

It's The Quirky Medium here!  First of all, I would like to thank all of you who voted for me for The People's Book Prize which took me to the finals yesterday.  It was an amazing evening full of glitz and glamour and talk about being wined and dined!  I had a fabulous time.  I didn't win, but it doesn't matter because I wouldn't have missed the event for the world especially as I didn't think I could go initially until the angels intervened.  The message came through a good friend who persuaded me to pull out all the stops to go along and I am so glad I did.  Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your support - I met some wonderful people, new contacts and at long last met my Publisher Nigel Peace from Local Legend who has given me so much encouragement from the start - see our photo below. My husband John accompanied me and he looked amazing in his birthday suit err whoops what a Quirky Medium I am, I mean his dinner suit!!  I kept calling him James all night aka Mr. Bond but it was me who was shaken and stirred especially with the initial filmed interview.  However, everyone was lovely and they didn't have to do any takes which was amazing! I will share the interview with you when I receive the clip.

I have a lot coming up, check my forthcoming events page for further details and keep your eye out for new workshops in the pipeline. Remember to keep smiling, and have a magical week!

Feel free to get in touch if you would like to receive more information.

Well it's been a funny week and I've fitted a lot in.  Last weekend I held one of my popular Angel Breath Workshops and we had an amazing day!  The energies in the room were, as ever, beautiful and working with the angels at such a deep level touched many souls in attendance. See below for a couple of pictures of our lovely day.

On Friday I went to visit my good friend Barbara and we spent a lovely day together.  The messages and signs from the angels have been coming thick and fast as confirmation that I am on the right path and the day with Barbara was no exception.  As we were walking along the canal tow-path I had to laugh as we passed a boat I have seen before in our own home-town.  It's called the 'Wandering Angel' - for those of you who read my regular blog updates you will remember why it's called that. Behind it was another boat called 'Serenity', and last but not least was 'Nutmeg' which is a term I use for anyone who is acting the goat. As if that wasn't enough, I reached into my pocket for my phone, and out flew a white fluffy feather!  It circled over our heads, and landed in a field nearby obviously waiting for someone else to find it as a sign that their angel has been near.  That evening my husband John had arranged a surprise meal for me for our up and coming wedding anniversary.  Imagine my surprise when I walked into the bistro to see Barbara and her husband Nick sitting there!  She said it had been extremely hard for her to keep quiet all day as she was trying her hardest not to slip up.  We had a fabulous evening of fun and laughter - what a wonderful surprise.

I woke up on Saturday to a beautiful sunny day and gave thanks because it was our friends son's wedding and we were invited to the evening reception.  John and I took our time getting there during the afternoon and booked into our hotel room at our leisure- we could see the wedding party outside in the grounds of the hotel having their photo's taken.  As we were getting ready for the evening reception John reached into his holdall and pulled out a small angel photograph - neither of us had put it there,and he had only used the holdall two days before when we went to the gym - how did it get there?  we don't know, but it was a wonderful gift from the angels as confirmation of their presence.

On Sunday my Mum came to our house and we nipped to the local garden centre for some plants- we had a BBQ as it was such a lovely sunny day, and I pottered in the garden planting and admiring my handiwork!

As I am typing this blog on Bank Holiday Monday I'm glad we took the dog for her long walk earlier as it is pouring down with rain.  It is mine and John's wedding anniversary today, 11 years of marriage and I wonder where it has gone.  We've done well, and although we've had our ups and downs as most couples do, I feel blessed that I have shared my life with a wonderful caring and supportive man who I love very much. He loves me too, quirks and all!

Here are the earth angels who attended my angel workshop - look out for new dates of the next Angel Breath Workshop and the higher level workshop- details of both coming soon.

Hello my lovelies

It's been a busy few weeks but in a good way.  Spirit have been keeping me on my toes and I had an amazing time last night at a psychic supper where my good friend Paul Demartin invited me as special guest.  Along with the ladies in his psychic team I did one to one readings and carried out a psychic demonstration  in front of an audience where I was given wonderful messages for the people listening to the show. During the 1 to 1 readings I had a little boy with me and when I mentioned it to the lady I was doing a reading for she said she hoped he would come through - it was her son sending his love to her from the spirit world. He gave me so much information as confirmation of his presence and it was a joy to be able to pass those messages on to his Mum.  On my last reading a gentleman came forward and I heard "It's about bloody time"!  when I conveyed this to the client she fell about laughing. She said it was her step-father and it was him to a tee. He also said to her "The grass really is greener over here"....  Apparently he said before he passed that he would come forward to make his presence known and to tell her what it was like in the afterlife. This was just one of the messages he shared during the reading.  I was honoured to be able to pass on so many messages of comfort during the evening.

Prior to this, a couple of weeks ago I had noticed a lot of spirit activity in our house.  Some of it was the usual stuff such as lights going up and down on their own which has always happened and is due to my own psychic energy but this was very different. Here is what happened: -  It started off when our little grand-daughters were stopping over on the Saturday evening.  They had been in bed for about an hour and I had checked on them regularly.  John and I were downstairs watching television when I heard someone walking around upstairs and the dogs tail wagging and banging against the radiator.  Her tail only wags when she is getting fed, or she is pleased to see someone!  I ran upstairs thinking one of the girls had got up, but they were all fast asleep in bed. Very strange, but not as strange as a few nights later when I heard a rattling coming from the kitchen.  When I went in to see what all the noise was about I could see a coffee cup rattling around on the saucer of it's own accord.  I asked who it was, and as soon as I spoke it stopped rattling. It was poltergeist activity but I wasn't scared and the pets weren't freaked out either. So what was going on?  I didn't have to wait long to find out.  A few days later John went over to our place in Spain to get some work done and I was alone in the house with our pets.  I woke up this particular night and looked at the clock which said 4.04am.  I wondered what had made me wake up and then I heard it.  A very strange sound which seemed to be all around me, then it moved to the wall. Surely it can't be inside the wall? I banged on the wall, and the sound moved.  I went onto the landing to try to locate where the sound was coming from now, and I opened the front spare bedroom door and  an eerie cold met me.  The sound was coming from inside the wardrobe in that room and I have to say I felt quite scared at this point so I switched the light on, and the sound stopped abruptly. I walked around the house checking where the animals were, who didn't seemed perturbed at all.  They were all asleep in their respective beds.  It was obvious they were aware of our 'intruder' but they weren't freaked out by it and I just knew it was a spirit child.  The noise sounded like a toy - similar to a small ball going round and round in circles but with a strange thud, then it started up again.  I knew the sound was familiar but I just couldn't place it...The next evening the same noise woke me around the same time only it was louder this time - I knew whoever it was wanted my attention but I shouted out to them to stop saying I was tired, but it carried on and on. When my daughter came over the next day we went into the spare bedroom and she exclaimed how very cold it was in there.  At that point I heard the noise and hoped she'd heard it too, which she had.  She said "Mum, it's a spinning top"! Of course - that is what I had heard - the spinning around, and the thud at the end was when it had stopped, then the whirring sound of it going round and round again. When Lauren had gone, I opened up and asked my Spirit Guides to help and I wrote down the messages I received and linked in with the spirit who was a small spirit boy called Samuel who definitely needed my help - it was his time to go over, but I knew I couldn't do this alone so I asked my friend Sarah to come and help. My friend Stephen suggested that I put some flour on a board in the room with some toys and coins around it as all children like to play with coins, so I did exactly that, explaining to Samuel what I was doing. I added some farm animals to the board, a little toy mouse, and some coins. When Samuel came forward he overshadowed me and some of what he conveyed was too awful to comprehend but he was mostly upset by having to leave his little brother Tom who he had been looking after. He had lost Tom's spinning top and kept going over and over the last time he saw his little brother and his beloved toy. Healso mentioned an older sister, Mary,and when the light came, they both came forward to guide him over to the next life. It was such an emotional rescue, but the room seemed to 'lift' as soon as the little one had gone over.  We blessed the room, smudged it, did our angel incantations, and drew the reiki symbols over the walls which made the room feel warm and inviting - just as it should be.  Here are a few photo's where we captured an oblong orb, a 'normal' round orb, and I wonder what you make of the red light around the figure on the front of my Spirit Guide's book?.  As you can see, a couple of the coins had been moved and it's all pretty amazing stuff, but the most amazing, was when Sarah said "Look Ali, look- and pointed to the flour - there, as clear as anything was a small smiling face.....  A thank you from Samuel for sending him over to his loved ones and confirmation that he is now at peace.  I haven't heard the spinning top since. - Thank goodness!

This week I was a guest on the paranormal Radio Blog K.T.P.F.  They had a camera crew in the studio recording some of their shows and it just happened that they wanted to film whilst I was doing my readings on air.  I did a few readings with excellent feedback and also did a mini reading for one of the guys from the crew.  He said he was quite skeptical about psychics but when I said I could see a little leprechaun dancing around he laughed, as he had just come back from Dublin with some of his friends, and they'd had a conversation about a little leprechaun on top of their Guinness!  It made us all laugh and I really enjoyed the show.

Today I have been catching up on some work, e-mails, and on the way home from Byley this morning I wrote a meditation in my head for my angel workshop. You'll be pleased to hear I wasn't driving at the time!  I'm really looking forward to the workshop and meeting everyone. Don't forget if you are a friend on facebook and you love angels, you are more than welcome to join my closed group 'Angel Magic' or my open group 'Archangel Harmony'.

I will love you and leave you for now, and wish you all a magical weekend.  Let's hope the weather gets better as today has been a strange mix of all our seasons together.  We've had sun, rain, hail and sleet- no wonder mother nature is getting rather confused.  I feel confused, too - who am I?!

Tata for now,

With love & blessings,

The Quirky Medium   x
