I Met My Guardian Angel! w/ Tiyi Schippers
What Researchers Found
The Story
TI was a young girl living in a haunted house in Chicago during the mid-20th century. The trigger for her near-death-like experience was repeated frightening encounters with spirits, especially a sad man in the closet who filled her with overwhelming grief. One night at around age five, she woke up terrified as the closet door opened and the man appeared, sharing his deep sorrow. She felt his agony intensely. Then, a loving presence she thought was her guardian angel whispered not to open her eyes and to lift out of her body. TI's consciousness separated from her physical form with a pop. She floated above her body, then went outside where everything glowed in amber light without shadows or sounds. The angel guided her to fly freely around the yard and house. As dawn approached, she worried about getting caught and was told to fall back into her body, landing with a jolt. After this, TI used out-of-body travel to escape fear and later relieve pain from a misdiagnosed illness at age 13. She became a skilled astral traveler and spirit medium, helping others connect with the deceased. In her 40s, she realized through another out-of-body trip that she was her own guardian angel from the future, confirming timeless spiritual connections and deepening her life's purpose in mediumship.

This account features voluntary childhood OBEs and astral projections without medical crisis, including one moderately specific remote viewing of friends' activities verified post-experience by partial corroboration from peers, alongside partial verifications in mediumship experiences with historical figures; however, lack of clinical death context and inconsistent verification timing constrain evidential strength.
Score reflects verifiable perceptions reported. A low score indicates the experience was primarily spiritual or subjective, not that it didn't occur.
Score reflects transformation as described. Domains scored 0 indicate the topic was not discussed, not that no change occurred.
