Faye Schindelka Author of "Poppies From Heaven"
I contacted Shawn Leonard for a telephone reading on a whim a few weeks following my brother’s death. I’d come across his website and was impressed with his testimonials. I had some personal issues I was having difficulty with that were unrelated to my brother’s death. I figured I’d perhaps gain some clarity on these issues and at the same time speak to Shawn about the signs and communications I’d been receiving from my brother. Shawn began the reading by asking me please to not offer him any information. He instructed me to try to limit my answers to ‘yes’ or ‘no.’ He immediately tuned into my guides and told me that he was being shown how much I love ‘pretty things that hang from the ceiling,’ and that I had them all over my home. He then said that my guide sends me rainbows to remind me to lighten up. I was nearly rendered speechless. “Yes,” I told him emphatically. At that very moment, I was lying on my couch, staring up at a rainbow of prismatic light that danced on my ceiling. It was a refraction of light from a crystal that I had dangling from the ceiling in a corner of my living room. Along with this crystal, I also have many other sparkly items hanging from my ceiling; a red etched glass star, a purple crystal globe, a chandelier with added hanging decorations, a glass candle holder, and a myriad of other singular dangling crystals in various rooms of my house. Psychic medium Shawn Leonard then began to mention a male guide of mine that he said helped me to write and communicate ideas. He kept insisting that he saw a ‘book’ of some sort in my future and that he saw my life purpose in general as being a ‘communicator of ideas.’ At the time of the reading, I had no inkling or idea of any kind to personally write a book and I told him that I believed he was tuning into my song-writing endeavors or perhaps some illustrations I had done for a friend who had written a poem that she was considering publishing into a children’s book. While he did not negate my song-writing interests or illustrations for the children’s book, he kept swaying back to ‘a book’ of my own and he even said that my brother was verifying this for him. Disinterested, I simply encouraged him to move on and told myself that he was getting ‘mixed signals’ regarding my song-writing. I actually did not even remember about his continued reference to ‘a book,’ until I was well into the writing of my book about life after death, Poppies From Heaven. I was casually perusing the notes I had taken during my reading with Shawn and was stunned as I read about and then fully recalled Shawn’s insistence that my brother kept showing him something about a book I would write. Shawn also said that he was getting the number eleven around my brother and was being told that this was of importance. He also said that my brother had chosen the specific day of his death as he wanted to be ‘remembered.’ My brother Murray died in his sleep on the morning of 11/11, which is Remembrance Day in Canada. This is just a sampling of the stunning accuracies psychic medium Shawn Leonard hit upon during my reading. He was extremely warm, compassionate and professional, actually going a bit over the allotted hour I had paid for. It is clear that Shawn Leonard has an incredible gift and I’d highly recommend him to anyone seeking proof of life after death and assurance that their deceased loved one continues to live on. I liked the fact that Shawn is both a psychic and a medium in the sense that not only does he tune into the spirits of deceased loved ones, but he also tunes into guides and future events and circumstances.
