"Why is direct connection to beings in other dimensions a natural ability for a few people and yet seemingly impossible for so many others?"A piece of this puzzle revealed itself to me during a casual conversation with a dear friend. Lois is a delightful, adventurous, spunky woman well into her eighties. She shared how she'd been opening up spiritually for sixty years, but was still unable to see or talk with her spirit guides-St. Germain, Jesus and Sai Baba-or with angels and nature spirits.
"So many times I'll feel a warmth akin to a presence in room with me. The connection gives me a vivid sense of serenity and comfort. But that's as far as it goes."
Questioning her, I learned she sometimes feel an energy emanating from her plants, but is never able to see plant's aura or subtle body, or to have a dialogue with spirit of plant.

She strained and squinted. She still didn't see anything unusual.
I urged, "Do you sense anything? Do you feel a presence, a warmth, any unusual sensation at all?"
Discouraged, she sighed and responded, "No, nothing."
