		<description>I'm so sorry things have been so rough. I know how much you miss your brother right now. I also know he has faith that you'll find a way to save him. Deep down, he knew there was no way to stop the deal, but he never doubted you'd find a way to get him back.

I believe your theory that he's found a way to try to reach you. There are better ways to strengthen that connection, ways that don't hamper your judgment when he does come through. And, no! It isn't some lengthy, complicated ritual. Magick is much more useful when it's kept simple. Before you go to sleep tonight, try the following (alcohol free):

Light purple and red candles. Purple is for increasing and focusing the brain's natural psychic abilities and red is for protection. Also burn wormwood or cinnamon incense. They both work for protection and psychic abilities. As the candles and incense burn, clear your mind and focus on your brother. Meditate on him and what he is trying to tell you. It may take a while to take effect. It might even manifest in your dreams.

We'll do our part and send positive energy to you both. Hugs from TX and hang in there. You'll get him back.</description>

		<title>Comment on Little Help, Here&#8230; by artemis luna</title>

		<description>Hey, artemis here again. I'm glad to hear you're going to take that guy's advice. He seemed to honestly want to help. And I imagine being able to take action of some sort will help not only Dean but you as well. When we lose someone special to us it is so easy to drown in the despair. The ability to find a reason to get out of bed and face the day can be the first step to healing.

Also, I wanted to let you know that your friend W.O.D. and I have our coven working overtime to see if we can come up with any spell, ritual, or help from a Pagan god (whatever it takes) to get Dean back. The minute we find something I'll e-mail you AND post it here. You both mean a lot to us and we want him back too. Big hugs from your girls in Texas.</description>

		<title>Comment on Dean&#8217;s Visit by jsmith</title>

		<description>I had a similar experience shortly after my father passed away. Though he didn't make a physical connection, instead manifesting visually. He was only there long enough to tell me "Don't give up." It took me a few weeks to figure out what he meant exactly. I too have psychic gifts, which I wasn't fully aware of until after his "visit". I believe he was urging me to use my gift to help others, not to give up by burying something that terrified me.

I'm not sure what your brother was trying to tell you. That is something only you can figure out. But I suggest that you find someone else with our gift, someone proficient with it, to help you interpret what he meant and to help you put your gift to good use.</description>

		<description>I thought your idjit brother was the only one that screwed up in the head. Apparently your Daddy did quite a number on the both of you to think so little of yourselves. Makes me wish I could drag his ass back to Earth just so I could kill him myself. The man had no clue what great kids he had, not just great Hunters but great kids. Or the smarts to tell THEM that once in a while. I think no matter who raised you boys, some things would never change. You would still be the most important person in Dean's world. He would still do everything in his power to protect you. And you would do the same for him. That was simply how it was meant to be. 

What would Dean tell you if he heard you blaming yourself for any of this? Damn right! He'd smack you upside the head and make it clear that that Yellow-Eyed son of a bitch was the one to blame. Of course, inside he'd blame himself. I don't know what to do with the two of you. If you didn't feel a part of you was missing without Dean around, then I'd be worried. He was as lost when you died as you are right now. We will get him back. You know we will. And when we do, he's going to need you more than he ever did before. You need to be strong for him. We both do.</description>

		<description>I don't know you or your brother, but from how you've talked about him here he obviously cared a great deal for you, as much as you obviously care about him. And I doubt he'd consider what he did a waste. You are going through something very traumatic right now. It's only natural that you feel responsible even though you aren't. He made the decision to sacrifice himself. What do you think he'd say right now if he heard you beating yourself up about it? :) It's ok to grieve. Just don't let it consume you. The fact that you are still posting here also says you are stronger than you think. And smart enough to know that getting your feelings out helps you move on, honor your brother's final wishes.</description>

		<description>Poor guy! Older sibling know-it-all and parental guilt all rolled into one. That's got to be rough. Sounds like he got off easy with pink socks and underwear. Oh, and you should tell him that only pansies read Dan Brown. ;)</description>
