I’m from South Philly and sometimes go with my sister Lucy to
the neighborhood senior center’s Zumba class. When the people at the center
found out that I had recently wrote a book, they asked me to do a book signing
for the first book in my apocalyptic series, Roof Oasis.
While talking about my book, the subject turned to my doing
ghost investigations and one of the people there for my lecture contacted me
later to talk about her own experiences with the dead. Join me as I question
Psychic Judy Ritchie Hand.
Marie Gilbert: “Judy when did you first notice your ability
to see the dead.”
Judy Ritchie Hand: “I’ve lived many places like Boston and
Canada, but I was born in Philadelphia. I think my ability or clairvoyance
began while I was still living in Philly and when I was around the age of five.
I was hospitalized after falling off a wall. This injury led to me developing
lockjaw and being in the hospital for months. Right after this incident, I
began to see shadow figures and I began to know things.”
Marie Gilbert: “I’ve found that this gift is usually
hereditary. I myself inherited my gift from my grandmother and mother. Were
there family members that also had this gift?”
Judy Ritchie Hand: “Yes, my mother had this gift as well as
my natural father. My real father died when I was around three years old. He
was in the Merchant Marines. It was around 1946 and they think he was murdered,
although, his body was never found. I do sense a male figure protecting me and
think it might be my dad.
I was born with a veil and back in those days, they were
given to a captain of a ship. It was for protection of the ship. There was
another incident that leads me to believe this gift runs in the family. I was
told that when my grandmother died, her children saw her spirit standing on the
roof. After that accident, I was able to see the dead.”
Marie Gilbert: “I didn’t know that your dad was murdered. That
must have been very hard on your mom. Can you tell us about your mother?”
Judy Ritchie Hand: “It was hard on her. My mother was
Blackfoot and Crow. She was an Indian princess.”
Marie Gilbert: “That is awesome. You know the tribal
connections pass down through the woman’s side. You should contact the tribe to
see if you have remaining family members.”
Judy Ritchie Hand: “I have and that is why I surround myself
with Indian artifacts. I also have an Indian spirit guide. And, I know that my
brother visits me. While alive, he loved to play tricks on me. He still does
when he wants me to know that he is there with me.
Marie Gilbert: “When did you start reading cards?”
Judy Ritchie Hand: “I started as a teenager. I didn’t have
tarot cards, but used a regular deck and only looked at the back of the cards
to help me focus. Today, I do readings at my home and I will do ghost
investigations if people need me to do this. You can give out my phone number
for people to contact me.”
Marie Gilbert: “I will do that Judy. Have you ever done
public physic events?”
Judy Ritchie Hand: “I worked for a public Radio Station
where people would call in and talk about we’d talk about past lives. I can do
this, read them over the phone. There are times that I see people from another
time period. I’ll see the women and men wearing period clothing and even the
surroundings around them are from that time period. I do have an interesting
story to tell you about a home I lived in on Bainbridge Street near to Front
Street. It had a tunnel that in the older days led directly to the river. We
were told that these tunnels were used as wine cellars or maybe an underground
railroad, but I knew better. I’d seen the women and men dressed in clothing
from long ago. I don’t know if the tunnels are still there, because so much as
changed since the building of the highway.”
Marie Gilbert: “Oh my God! Judy I believe you about the
tunnels. I was just at a book signing where an author friend of mine, Harry Kyriakodis,
did a slide show on the history of Philadelphia’s waterfront from his book,
Philadelphia’s Lost Waterfront. He talked about these tunnels and that people
coming over during William Penn’s time, would have lived in those tunnels until
they were able to find a home to live in. The spirits you saw in that tunnel
were they dressed in that time period’s clothing?”
Judy Ritchie Hand: “Yes and there were people from other
time periods also.”
Marie Gilbert: “This is so amazing. I do have to let Harry
know about this. Judy, do you have one more story to tell my readers before I
go into your feelings of what is psychically happening in the world right now?
”
Judy Ritchie Hand: “This particular event was very
interesting. I had accompanied a friend to Boston to visit the grave on one of
his family members. When we have reached the cemetery we could not find the
grave. An old black man standing next to a vintage truck began to speak with
us. He said “You should go to the office.” After my friend went to the office,
the man vanished. My friend came back with the location of his aunt’s grave.
Funny thing was that the people in the office didn’t have a clue as to who the
man in the truck was. It didn’t matter. I knew he was a ghost and I saw him
vanish.”
Marie Gilbert: “It’s frustrating when people don’t believe
you. I think they’re afraid to open their minds. This leads me to my final
question. As a psychic have you been sensing a big change coming? I know my
friends and I have been for some time now.”
Judy Ritchie Hand: “My head has been hurting. Earth is
changing, going off course. We are picking up too much radiation from television,
computers and the movements of planets. We are in a Mercury retrograde. Truth
that has been hidden for a long time is now coming becoming clear. People are
becoming aware of lies told to them over a long period of time. I fell that my
mother and grandmother are sending me messages about what’s happening.
Marie Gilbert: “I am glad that you brought this up, Judy.
These signs and dreams that my friends and I are having are all the same. There
are a handful of powerful people who spread lies to frighten and control the
populace. I’m talking about organized religions and governments, but people are
opening their eyes and their minds, and now, they are starting to question
those in power.
It was a pleasure to chat with you, Judy. We will get
together again because I wanted to know how Astrology has helped you in your
day to day life. If anyone is interested in having a reading done, or a house
investigated, you can contact Judy Ritchie Hand at this number: 1-267-579-8075
