Violent Death and the Soul

I wish to know what happens to a person's soul if they have been murdered in a very violent manner. I know this is a very difficult subject to broach upon and I appreciate any insight that comes my way. I am a very persistent person and until I am convinced that my daughter is now safe I will continue to search the heavens for her. Blessings Danya

Ultimately, in the higher realms where we truly come from, we do not live in dichotomy.  Therefore, I believe we know that we simply do not die and cannot be hurt. It just seems like it from down here and the pain of the people grieving our loss is very real, but the soul itself can simply never die - of anything - ever.  It just changes form and sometimes a soul will agree to such a horrible death for reasons that are loving but hard to see. For example, the person who murdered the victim - there could be soul reasons between the two that one (the victim) agrees from a place of high love to sacrifice their very lives to let the murderer learn something. (Just an example, not a statement of fact for all cases.) From my understandings, a murdered person may not know they are dead for awhile if it was quick, but a guide of some kind will come to help them adjust.  As they gain perspective of where they are and the veils needed to exist on earth begin to lift, I believe they come to see the larger purpose of their lives and why they were taken out the way they were.  Mind you, I believe some spirits have a hard time coming to peace with it, but most don't because it makes sense from a perspective we just don't have while in this life.  There are gifts even in tragedy and sometimes the most awful things will produce some gift.  At the very least, it can become recognizing that this life down here on planet earth is a tough assignment and released from it, we go home.  It is a joyous place and all wounds heal there.

From your note, it sounds as though you have lost your daughter in this way. My sincerest condolences for this loss.   If this is the case, your daughter would indeed be safe now - and home in a very real spirit sense.

These are some of my perspectives on the question.  Hope that helps. Mary-Anne

I understand your pain. Yes I do. I lost a son to a violent murder. He went to spirit very quickly and is still there doing a lot of good work. A lot depends on the age of a soul and how many times they have been reincarnated and how much they have advanced. So in that respect the level of spirit is maybe unknown. I can assure you she is at peace and at some level in spirit. She may still be healing and learning. It depends on how she was when she died and what her life had been like as to how much spiritual healing she will have needed if any. You live in the same province I do. She is in spirit and give her some time and you will feel her around you. The murderer will not be so lucky when his time comes. He has a lot to answer for and a lot to pay for. Blessings and hugs. I know how difficult life can be. I picked up my pieces and carried on the way I knew my son would want me to. I still miss his earthly presence but I feel his spiritual one. God bless,
Victoria

In my experience, a violent, traumatic death is a shock for all involved... and it can take some spirits awhile to adjust... I think that is why we find ghosts hanging out at the scene of terrible accidents.... and also why it is so important to send lots of love and prayers for all of those affected - including the murderer in a situation like you have described... hard as that might be....the good news is that there are spirits on the other side, and our guradian angels who will helps us to recover from such shocks... and with prayer and the messages of love, the soul on the other side can reconnect with themselves and find peace... I am sure that is how your daughter is recovering... with the help of angelic healers and a mother who won't stop loving... Lotsa LLLove, Danielle
