Got a hunch your lover's playing away? The unexplained dinner receipts, text messages, new wardrobe… But what if you had no reason to be suspicious? That's where Spirit comes in - or did in Lorraine's case (p4 )! She'd been happily married for a year, then a disembodied voice said: ‘George is cheating!' Sure enough, the truth came out. Lorraine knew her marriage was over, and she'd never take him back… Or would she? Crisis can be a marvellous healer. Orb of love I took this photo of my friend before the start of the service at my Spiritualist Church. The medium gave her a message from her son who’d died. I think the orb is proof that he was with her that night. Margaret Banks, Runcorn, Cheshire February…

Colours of death From a very young age, I've been able to see visions and connect to the other side. I tried to ignore it, but when I started nursing at University Hospital Lewisham six years ago, it became impossible. I’d see red and black around incredibly ill patients – this was a warning they were about to pass. I’d do my best to save them and it was heartbreaking when there was nothing that could be done. Once, a woman died, but I was left with a message to pass on to her family that she was with her husband. It gave them comfort. After a year, I quit nursing to become a full-time medium. Without my experiences on the ward, this would never have happened… Now I feel…

Jamie Oliver’s Sugar Rush flagged up the dangers of high levels of sugar in our diets. Sugar causes tooth decay and is linked to obesity, type 2 diabetes, cancer, bowel and heart disease. Not so sweet Every year in the UK, 26,000 primary-school children have teeth extracted due to decay. There are around 7,000 amputations in adults because of type 2 Diabetes. There are obvious sources of sugar in our diets, like Valentine’s Day chocolates. But there is also hidden sugar we eat in dangerous quantities. Two types Naturally-occurring sugars found in milk and fruit. Free sugar (the ones we should reduce), added to food and drink as well as honey, syrups, fruit juice and fruit juice concentrates. Too much? Current daily guidelines recommend: Children aged 4 to 6: max…

Why is it that with some people you feel instantly drawn to and yet others you wouldn’t give a second glance? It all comes down to that magical thing we call chemistry. Learn the secret signs of attraction and you’ll know when you’ve met your perfect match... Mirror mirror If someone mirrors your body language, it's a huge sign telling you that they like you. They probably don’t even know they’re doing it, as it’s something we do subconsciously when we’re attracted to another person. If you put your hands on your hips and the person you’re talking to copies you, their body is doing the talking, and it’s saying, ‘Yes please!’. Looking good Of course we want the person we've set our sights on to think we look gorgeous…

Screwing up my eyes, I prayed with all my might. ‘I need a man. Please send one to me,’ I begged. Psychic all my life, I’d always trusted the spirit world to help me whenever I needed it. There was just one problem – I was married to a woman! I’d always known I was gay. When I was young, I used to dream about Richard Chamberlain, the handsome actor in 1960s TV show Dr Kildare. But I grew up on a rough estate in Hackney, London. Coming out was the last thing you’d do if you valued your life! Living a lie So I kept up the pretence, dating girls until I finally tied the knot with Melanie in April, 1985. But we bickered non-stop, made each other miserable.…

He was really menacing Dear Roi de Lune This dream terrified me… A hooded youth knocked on the front door. He asked if my family was in – they weren’t – but I said yes. He tried barging in, but I rammed the door shut. I chased him up the drive, but he pulled out one of the bars on our wrought-iron gates and ran away. Caroline, 45, Sheffield Dear Caroline Something’s making you feel oppressed and hunted, which is worrying you. But you know that, deep down, you have the inner strength and energy to deal with it, however strong the force might be. Culture corner Langston Hughes (1902-1967) was an internationally renowned American poet and writer, known for vivid depictions of American black communities. He was a very…

It’s all a bit of a blur Dear Miss Crimebuster My daughter, who’s a university student, had been on a night out with some friends. She was drunk, and says a cab driver mugged her on her way home, although it’s all a bit of a blur in her memory. I’m worried – is this really what happened to her? Anna, 46, Bristol Dear Anna It seems your daughter’s telling the truth. Unfortunately, she was picked up by an unlicensed cab driver that night who’s been taking advantage of vulnerable young people. It was a regrettable experience for your daughter, but your gran in spirit – who also liked a tipple! – was watching over her and kept her safe that night. She had drugs on her Dear Miss Crimebuster…

Some faces burn a mark on your memory. You can never forget them – no matter how much you want to. For me, killers Myra Hindley and Ian Brady are two such faces. In the 1960s, when the monstrous pair began their murder spree, I was a child, living in Glossop, Derbyshire. When their crimes came to light, I discovered they lived just 20 minutes away from my family, in Wardle Brooke Avenue, Greater Manchester. Such horror A chill ran through me as I passed the police cordon around their house. It’s hard to describe the horror that engulfed the community when they were found guilty of killing three youngsters: 10-year-old Lesley Ann Downey, John Kilbride, 12, and Edward Evans, 17. We hadn’t known then that they had also murdered…

Chills washed over me as every hair on my body stood on end. The house was quiet – and then the voice spoke again: ‘He’s cheating on you. George is cheating on you.’ I couldn’t tell if it was male or female, or from which direction it came. I’d no idea from whom the message was coming, either. All I knew was it was wrong. A voice ‘My husband loves me!’ I spluttered. ‘Go to his job site now,’ the voice murmured, and everything was silent again. George and I had been married for a year, and together for four. I’d never suspected George was unfaithful, and I refused to accept it now. I was a believer in the spirit world but I’d never had a sign like this before.…

‘You’ve changed,’ my friend Terri Powell snapped. ‘You’re so angry! And you’re drinking too much.’ ‘I’ve changed?’ I spluttered. ‘That’s rich, coming from you. You’re like the lady of the manor, bossing me about, treating me like a skivvy!’ We glared at each other. ‘What’s going on with us?’ I gasped. ‘We’ve been friends for years. Why are we fighting?’ ‘I think I might know,’ Terri said. ‘But you’ll have to be regressed…’ Creepy It all started in 2005, when I took over The Royal Oak pub in Swanage, Dorset, where Terri did cleaning as a favour every now and again. Psychic since childhood, the pub gave me the creeps, but I never saw any ghosts. Terri, a medium, did though. ‘There’s a girl called Lizzie, a grumpy old man…

Male thinking So, it seems men really are from Mars and women from Venus! Scientists noticed changes in the brains of women who have a sex change. They start to think more like men after treatment with testosterone. They were less able to multi-task, but had better spatial awareness. OK, they may be better at parking, but I bet they miss cooking, loading the washing and sending e-mails at the same time! Pad it out More than 15 million days a year are lost at work to back pain but a pad wrapped around your leg could give relief! Gently putting pressure on an acupuncture point in your calf presses on the sciatica nerve and breaks the pain signal going through the body. Insta Life acupressure pads could help you…

Crystal fact Spessartite This flamboyant garnet gets its name from Spessart (‘forest' in German) in Bavaria where it was discovered in the 19th Century. Spessartite comes in shades of orange, yellow and red, and jewellers are particularly partial to fiery red with orange flashes. It’s thought by healers to aid depression, the kidneys, bladder, and the reproductive system. Spessartite is also said to encourage helping others! It’s mainly found in Tanzania, Kenya, Nigeria, Madagascar, India, Namibia and Zambia. Ghostly Inspirations Mary Wollstonecraft Before Mary came to Dolben St in London in 1788, she worked as a governess in Ireland. Mary disliked her employer, but the home she provided gave her a haven to immerse herself in sincere ideology. Her doomed love affairs raised eyebrows, and she twice attempted suicide. Mary…

You’ve all heard of holy water – H20 that’s been blessed – but, according to the late Japanese author and researcher Masaru Emoto, we can all exercise power over water. We were so fascinated by the snippet in December’s Outer Source on this subject, we decided to investigate further! Being postive Emoto, a uni graduate and Doctor of Alternative Medicine, who died in October 2014 at 71, began analysing frozen water under a microscope in the mid 90s. He looked at crystals made by tap water, rivers and lakes near big cities. But he didn’t find anything particularly pleasing. However, when water from rivers that were away from development was frozen, Emoto found it formed unique crystals. He went on to observe the crystals formed by frozen clean water after…

Star letter A dream come true Weeks ago, I needed £125 for a bill I had to pay, but I didn't think I'd manage to save up. Then I had a dream I was at bingo and put £1 in a slot machine. Loads of pound coins came tumbling out. A few days later, I gave it a go and put £1 in. To my surprise, 125 pound coins fell out. I’m stunned – nothing like that has ever happened before! Kathryn Croft, Hayling Island, Hants Long-lost hubby In September, my story was published in Chat it’s fate about me being Catherine Eddowes (a Jack the Ripper victim) in a past life. Since then, a man has contacted me saying, for a long time he, too, has had a fascination…

Your relationship If your partnership has developed into a meeting of minds rather than an emotional connection, the Sun’s move into your Relationship Sector on the 19th is a chance to turn things around.

Your relationship Explain to your other half why your relationship isn’t your main focus at the moment. This should keep things ticking along amicably. There’s no reason why spending less time together should be detrimental to you as a couple – it could have the opposite effect. Absence makes the heart grow fonder, after all. Pencil in Saturday 6th and Friday 26th as potential date nights. New Love It’s a lively month for gossip, and you enjoy talking about love. An online flirtation proves to be a lot of fun and a good way to find out more about each other before you meet in person. Try not to rush into a new relationship – do your groundwork. With lusty Mars in your Secrets Sector, delve deep to reveal emotional…

Your relationship While Jupiter’s in retreat in your Relationship Sector, you might feel as if your love life’s going backwards.

The Full Moon on the 22nd rekindles rapport. New love Friendship and fun are linked, whether you find yourself attracted to a friend or a mate’s introduction comes up trumps.

They say the eyes are the window to the soul. But I think you can tell more about a man by his shoes! So, when I got chatted up, it didn’t matter how good looking the guy was – if I didn’t like what he was wearing on his feet, I sent him packing! One day in 1989, age 24, I was in a pub in London with a friend. A man came up to me. In the stars ‘Hi, I’m Martin,’ he grinned. He was tall and good looking, with dark curly hair, just like my heartthrob, George Michael. I looked at his feet. He was wearing lovely Chelsea boots. Love at first sight! You’re going to marry this guy, I thought as we talked. I didn’t have a…

Every so often, my wife Sara sends me a link to a story she thinks I’d find interesting. And she’s often right. A paranormal investigator like me, we share an interest in the strange and mysterious. Bizarre sighting This time, her link took me to a rather bizarre story – complete with footage – from China, concerning, of all things, a floating city. Reading further, it became clear that this wasn’t just a one-off sighting. Thousands had seen this city in the sky, seemingly emerging from the clouds, complete with huge skyscrapers. Wormhole? But what was it? Where had it come from? And could we rent a house there?! Within a short space of time, the rumour mill was spinning faster than a fast thing that had just had a…

Q & A I get repeated infections Dear Jenny The doctors haven’t been able to find a reason for my persistent chest infections. I’m also obsessed with Cornwall, though I’ve never been there… Rommy, 28, Swaffham, Norfolk Dear Rommy You had a tough life back in the 1800s when you were a man called Sam. You worked below ground in the Cornish mines. You used explosives, and, in those days, although it was harmful to breathe in the post-explosion dust, you couldn’t waste time waiting for it to clear, so gradually your lungs became diseased. Go to Cornwall and visit the old mine remains in the Truro area. There’s a little part of you still there. Find that part and your lungs might be healed at last. I can only…

Q & A I can’t take off my rings Dear Jayda Why do my hands swell when I exercise? My rings get stuck. I’m worried something’s wrong. Paula, 44, Whitley Bay Dear Paula It’s nothing to worry about. Exercise increases blood flow to the heart and muscles you’re working, which reduces blood flow to the hands, making them cooler. Your blood vessels react by widening, which may be what makes them swell. Take off your rings before a workout and keep stretching and opening your fingers in a fist to improve circulation. Jayda’s hot tip February can be a gloomy month when winter seems never-ending. Try a Danish hygge. Hard to say (huegah), it’s also tricky to translate. It’s a deep cosiness – and to hygge, you make ordinary things…

Am I on the right track? Dear Lorelei Luckily, I’ve published my own novel, and my company has helped others to do the same. I want to do more writing, and I’m planning a teaching arm. Is this the right path for me? Jennifer, 36, Liverpool, Merseyside Dear Jennifer The pale blue area shows you’re soft-hearted. Lovely though that is, it doesn’t always make the best business sense. Show others how to do it, but make sure you get paid for the teaching, too! Your fave colours interpreted Dear Lorelei I was ill and off work for six months, but I've now returned to a new position. Will I get more confident? My favourite colours are turquoise, royal blue and yellow. Sharon, 37, Stanford-le-Hope, Essex Dear Sharon Turquoise is the…

Face the challenge Recently, I've been reading about a couple of women from the Medieval Ages: Dame Julian of Norwich and St Agnes of Assisi (see right for more on both). They lived when women had little freedom, but chose to stand up for what they believed to be the path God chose for them. Because of that strength, their stories live today. It started me thinking about how easily we can give up on things, as it’s simpler to run. Trust your Guardian Angels to help you believe in yourself. Think of the joy you’ll feel when you say, ‘I won through’. Plus, you’ll be following in the footsteps of some amazing people in history!

Bestselling author and medical intuitiver Rita Louise says: ‘It is only in recent years that the world of science is beginning to understand the nature of our Universe - it is all just energy. Theories of nonlocality and quantum entanglement suggest that objects can influence each other even when separated by large distances. Dr Emoto’s work has captured the magnificence of the Universe at work. He has not only documented the power of our intention but also the effects of our environment – all in a frozen drop of water. If, as his work suggests, what we feel and experience influence water, how are these same energies affecting us?’ For more info on Dr Rita Louise, go to www.soulhealer.com LIFE! DEATH! PRIZES!

Signs across the divide Fat chance! Listening to David Bowie, and drinking pop, I felt like the bee's knees. It was the 70s, and me and my mates had bunked off to hang out at a friend’s house. ‘Want to have a go on my Ouija board?’ my mate asked. We were all intrigued, so we set it up at the dining table. We put our fingers on an upside-down glass and said, ‘Is anyone there?’. The glass moved, spelling out a word – yes. Someone’s moving the glass, I thought, suspecting my pals! When another friend asked, ‘Who are you?’ the glass made its way around the board. H…E…N…R… ‘Henry VIII!’ I said when it was finished. I still thought it was one of my friends. ‘My mum said…

Your relationship Mighty Mars is the planet that rules your libido. Currently strong in Scorpio, this gives your passion a hearty boost. But you’re in danger of losing your sex drive if you and your other half share different ideas about sex. Gentle persuasion works better than throwing a hissy fit, and who knows what thrills might be in store if you make the first move? New love You won’t have any problem meeting new people, but the focus is on friendship, not love, and you may feel disappointed if the person you like only sees you as a good mate. When you turn your attentions towards a colleague, you activate the lust barometer, which shoots from cool to hot. Career and money Don’t shoot yourself in the foot if…

Your relationship You may have a tendency to romanticise the past, so take care this doesn’t derail your current relationship.

Your relationship Love planet Venus blesses your Relationship Sector until the 17th. Make the most of the hot vibe and have fun. A wedding invitation or romantic holiday will do nicely.

All my life, they’ve been there. Watching, waiting. Just like they were the night they took my child. It was Christmas Eve 1969. My belly was swollen with a growing baby inside. My heart was swollen with excitement. ‘Next year, it’ll be a new decade, and we’ll be new parents,’ I said to my husband, Dan. Bleeding We’d got married two years before, when I was 21. And at five months pregnant with our first baby, we were off to a party. As I was getting ready, a red dot appeared in my underwear. It got bigger and bigger until it was dripping down my legs. ‘Dan!’ I screamed, as I blacked out. I came round at home the next day, feeling I’d missed time. Dan and a doctor were…
