Daily Photo – Moving On…

Still working on the new Presets… soon, soon! This is my place here in New Zealand! I’m actually in the middle of selling it… I literally have no idea what I will do next. I feel drawn to Japan lately… maybe I’ll get a place there for six months or a year… or maybe even Scotland. I figure the universe will let me know. We seem to have pretty good communication lately, as you may be aware if you’ve read my latest book!

What Happens After You Die and Before You Decide to Come Back to Earth? PART 2

More thoughts around the ideas of the book…

Some New Presets?

I’ll release some new presets soon! Do you get my newsletter? It’s pretty awesome, if I do say so myself, and I do! Usually that’s where I release stuff first and sometimes exclusively. Anyway, if you want added just email [email protected] with the subject Presets and we’ll sort you out with news… In the last newsletter I asked if people wanted more presets and for which applications. It was actually a 50/50 split of Lightroom and Luminar! I haven’t released any in over two years, so I’m going through the process now of re-organizing and packaging them. Luminar is a little clumsy for installing them. Anyhoo… we’re on the case talking to Skylum to solve that! Here’s one I just finished editing with one of the new presets!

Discussing My Experience

The Introduction

Here I am, reading you a section of my new book. Enjoy! Oh, and don’t forget to join up for my new FB discussion group too…

Discussing the New Book

Oh, and it’s hit #1 on a bunch of categories over on Amazon. Pretty cool! Thanks all who bought it so far.

Guess what? I kinda died and left the Earth to go to the Spirit World for a while. And now I wrote a book about it!

Bet you didn’t guess that, right?

I have a new book! This is a very personal book about an unexpected adventure in spirituality. You all know how I’ve been to all 7 continents? Well, now I left all of them behind, basically died, and left my body, flying into space with my light-body and arriving in the Spirit World for a stint. Yep. You won’t believe it, but it’s all true. Obviously “they” sent me back into my body. I don’t think you can send newsletters from the Spirit World. Anyway, in all seriousness, my time on the Other Side was BY FAR the most transcendent experience of my life.

It happened exactly a year ago, on July 7, my birthday. So, for the past year, I have been researching to figure out what the hell happened to me. Spoiler alert: There is no hell. Thank God. Little afterlife joke there for you. So, I’ve taken all my adventures and learnings and put them together in this book.

I’ve always been fascinated by the nature of reality. I mean, what the f_ck is going on? Anyway, I think I figured it out, or as much as the monkey mind can understand, and it’s all so beautiful and full of love. No, I’m not some born-again Christian or anything. No religious stuff in here… simply a blending of a lifetime of scientific skepticism fused with spirituality… what happens after we die? What’s goin’ on with our souls? What’s the point of it all? All that good stuff is in this whopper of a book, along with my adventurous and hilarious tale which you will not believe. But you should. Cuz it’s true.

We made this one available for Kindle, Black and White Paperback, and Color Paperback. (You’ll probably want to change to your local Amazon site before clicking “buy”.)



Trey Ratcliff's Soul's Compass Book Cover | Trey Ratcliff on Amazon

Below is the official blurb on Amazon.

“In Soul’s Compass: An Awakening Odyssey Beyond Earth, the author’s transformative experience in Scotland catalyzes a profound spiritual and existential journey. Transitioning from staunch atheism to embracing spiritual mysteries, this journey begins with the involuntary phrase of twenty-four enigmatic words, leading to an immediate collapse on the bed, and then his soul leaves his body and visits the spirit realm for a transcendent experience. The narrative vividly charts this dramatic shift, offering a candid look at the path to reconcile scientific evidence with mystical experiences, sparking deep introspection into the nature of existence, consciousness, love, and reality itself.

The account delves into extraordinary and harrowing circumstances, including multiple stays in mental hospitals across continents and profound understandings about reality. Despite these tumultuous events and moments of profound isolation, the journey leads to transcendent and revelatory states. Moments of incredible insight and beauty illuminate the true nature of the soul and our purpose, highlighting the interconnectedness of the universe in a fresh, enlightening light.

Soul’s Compass navigates this extraordinary transformation with openness and humor, along with ample references from the ancient to the modern. This blend of sincerity, curiosity, and levity renders the book a compelling testimony to the resilience of the human spirit. It stands as an illuminating beacon for those navigating their own existential inquiries, offering both laughter and profound insights for readers daring to confront the vastness of their beliefs and the cosmos with an open heart and mind.”
