ISBN 978-1947369016 16.95CHAPTER 3I Love You To TheMoon And BackI am deeply grateful to Jerry for allowing me to tell his story.All names, locations and details are factual.“Where there is love there is life”Mahatma GandhiLOVE NEVER DIES. Although mourning is an important human custom and ritual, thelove we have shared is never lost, and no love is ever wasted. Love is a precious jewelthat we can take with us when we leave this place. At least that is what I have come tounderstand from the years I have been a humble student of life after death.Love never dies. Theemotional pain of losingsomeone dear can becrippling a parent, spouse orchild even a pet, but sharedlove creates bonds beyondthis earthly existence thatsurvive death. This is what I’vediscovered as someone whocommunicates with those inthe afterlife: “life is eternal” andwe will be united with bothbeloved humans and animalsagain.But don’t take my word for it; Iinvite you to read it for yourself.The following is a chapter from,Love Never Dies-A PsychicArtist Illustrates True Stories OfThe Afterlife. After 30 years ofmarriage, Jerry and Robin wereseparated by cancer’s deadlyblow. Learn how Robin’s spiritaccurately tells her skepticalhusband of her undying lovefor him, from the other side oflife by communicating a secretonly they knew.My friend Jerry and I were relaxing during a rare windless evening at Cannon Beach onthe Oregon Coast. Robin, Jerry’s recently departed wife, had loved Canon Beach. Seabirdswere nesting on Haystack Rock, which towers 200 feet in the air, and glorious tide poolswere filled with bright purple starfish nestled beside orange ones. We had visited themearlier; the soft green sea anemones grabbed our fingers, thinking they were tasty fish.A bright red crab was trapped in a deep pool, having missed the outgoing tide, andseagulls watched hopefully from overhead. We saw tufted puffins diving and swimmingto catch little fish and they seemed to cheer Jerry up a bit.We built a fire on the beach that evening. Sheer sandstone cliffs gave way to a vastexpanse of beach where rocks the size of buildings dotted the rugged coastline.Transfixed by the flames that warmed our faces, the fresh, cool air at our backs, and theocean’s muted roar in the distance, we were possessed by a Buddha-like calm.This night was the one-year anniversary of Jerry’s wife’s passing, one year ago thatvery night she had died. Well, of course she really wasn’t “dead” dead—she had left hercancer-ridden earthly garment behind, and the true essence of Robin had returnedHome, to Heaven.We laughed, talked, and remembered dear Robin, saying prayers and sending her ourlove and good wishes on the other side. The past year had been grueling for Jerry, themost difficult of his life.“Look!” Jerry said suddenly, pointing behind our heads at the moon, startling us half outof our minds.I saw something like a candle in a paper bag floating gently toward the star-filledsky. Hmmm what is that am I dreaming? Hauntingly beautiful, magnificent little hotair balloons floated weightlessly, snaking upward, like an E. E. Cummings poem. A dozenwarm, luminescent flickering flames, juxtaposed against the cool dark cobalt sky.“Chinese lanterns!”

Jane de Forestseems to have unconditional love inside. The trailing energy fieldlooks like translucent gossamer film over her pulsating, glowinggown-flowing radiant streamers that feel like silent satin. I seefloating diamonds, maybe crystals that refract the light, flashing amillion tiny rainbows my Heavens, it’s remarkable!” I felt unableto do it justice. Words seemed inadequate and I was muddling upthe vision.“She is trying to give you a message let me allow space in mymind to receive the communication clearly,” I said.Chinese LanternsThe night was getting late so I returned to the cabin with myelderly mother, leaving the rest of our group. Jerry explained laterthat for some reason he had felt an inexplicable urge to turn andwatch the first lantern. The flickering renegade lantern rose farbeyond the illuminated parade, possibly 1,000 feet, then pulledaway from its group and headed straight for a low-hanging cloud.Though Jerry expected the cloud’s moisture to extinguish theflame, he still kept searching for the solo flier.Out the lantern popped, having penetrated the cloud.Intrigued with the unfolding journey of the rogue Chineselantern, he kept vigil, watching until the lantern became a blackdot silhouetted against the full moon. Then, slowly, the shadowdescended, falling back down to earth, swallowed by theevening’s exquisite stillness.I had promised Jerry an intuitive reading, and was looking forwardto the opportunity to help him. So the next morning we headeddown to the beach before the family woke up. The summer daywas a typical one for the Oregon Coast: cold, wet and windy. I waswrapped in my Columbia fleece, wool hat and flip-flops and araincoat.“She was sharing the evening with us last night on the beach withthe fire. I sure felt her, did you?” I was getting an awareness of theprevious night and the moon, with a feeling about falling back toEarth. “She is communicating something about the lanterns yousaw.”In my imagination she expressed the idea she had joined us thenight before. Because I had turned in early, I missed the roguelantern’s adventure, so I mistakenly thought she was telling meonly that.“She keeps showing me the moon, hmmm, and the lanterns. Didthe two of you share a significant memory that included Chineselanterns?”“No.” Jerry wanted to make my story fit; he has a generous heart,which is one of the reasons I adore him.I was hearing, seeing and feeling the message, but translatingbetween the two worlds can be tricky sometimes. The languageof the spirit world presents itself in symbols that need to bedecoded, not unlike a dream. I could feel Robin’s presence andher willingness to communicate with me, but I was missing themessage. I decided to stop forcing the process.“Falling to earth—did you have a favorite song, one that belongedto just the two of you, such as Walking On The Moon?” I got creative. Jane de ForestJerry and I made a wind block with my half-dome tent and gotcomfortable. I breathed, centered, and prayed. My intuitiveprocess of opening my sixth sense took a moment, but beforelong I felt the familiar, comfortable and warm feeling ofconnection, and impressions started coming fast.“Robin is here now, and I love her,” I said, remembering her lovelyenergy. We had met once before. “I see her and, my Heavens, sheis exquisite!” I sensed her presence and felt like crying. She wasglowing with such magnificence — luminous strands floated inmy mind and I could feel the tone of her life force energy.“She is wearing a long glimmering gown, and frankly the outfit’samazing. The dress is alive.” Somehow intelligence seemed to bewoven in. “I feel angelic resonance and, well, hmmm, the garmentThe Rogue Lantern’s Message

Excerpt from Love Never Dies-A Psychic Artist Illustrates True Stories Of The Afterlife. Author,Illustrator Jane de Forest, Illustrated Tara de Forest. 2017 Jane’s Inspiration, LLC“No.”Well, hmm, this is starting be about as much fun as a root canal. Icould feel Robin strongly; sometimes things do not jibe until later,but I wished I could nail the reading right then.“Did you have an inside joke, like ‘she takes you to the moon?’” Iqueried.“No, sorry Jane,” he said kindly, but I’m sure he felt sorry forme by this time. I understood I felt sorry for me too.Fearwas approaching and slithered into my belly. Anxiety felt likeelectricity spreading throughout my body. I can do this, I toldmyself. I have helped people over the years, this is no different You have help. I prayed hard to the “Big Guy.”“Let’s try this one more time. Take you to the moon, bring youback, love you as big as the moon?” I said, grasping at straws,determined to overcome my adversity.There was a long silence. The cool coastal wind whipped aroundour little tent and sand hit like tiny bullets. A seagull swoopeddown looking for a morsel, but there was only Jerry and me sittingcross-legged on my Pendleton woolen blanket with black, red,yellow and green stripes.“I love you to the moon and back,” said Jerry, putting the piecestogether. “Robin said that to me every single day, and to the boys.Nobody knew. Just our family.”Phew, I got the message! Geez, my body let out an involuntarysigh. I could feel the tension drain from my face.The Chinese lantern had gone “to the moon and back”, asymbol of their undying and eternal love, in addition to a literalinterpretation of the phrase that Robin repeated daily. That wasthe sign she was trying to send Jerry through me. She had mostlikely taken control of the first lantern, sending it far above theothers. From my experience, spirits or souls seem to be able toinfluence matter.“Of course Robin knows your mind and knew we were gettingtogether.
