We had everything set up as usual this week.
We decided I would turn down the music when Liz began any
inspired speaking.
I did the opening prayer at 8.30pm then we did the Rainbow
Bridge Exercise.
Liz started going down a narrow track lined with bulrushes
leading to a full flowing river. There was a stone bridge to her left but she
felt she didn’t want to go left and saw another narrow white convex bridge to
her right. It was a metal lattice work bridge with an asphalt path over it. Liz
started to walk over it and felt lots of children there, one with golden hair
and a brown child ran ahead to lead Liz across. She saw a rainbow arching from
where she got on the bridge to beyond where she got off. On the other side she
saw rolling green fields and pastures with sheep, lambs and goats and there
were shepherds and huts. It looked like a nursery rhyme scene. The children led
Liz up into the hills, then beyond the hills along a beautiful grassy path. She
looked back and saw the river below, it was a beautiful place. Liz felt she
could stay there for ages. She then came to a large grassy clearing with old
grey stones and a group of adults like druids in white and grey robes in a
circle and they invited Liz to join them. It was all to do with ‘feeding the
lambs’ and they told Liz that in May there was going to be a great input of
energy and we would have some fruition, we will begin to be feeding the lambs
then but this is spiritual food. There’s a gathering of druid like priests and a
great force of energy being put into the earth and to the spiritual realms and this
great input of energy is for the feeding of the lambs. Liz was told we would be
participating in that in May. She then glided back on the rainbow…
I started off in the air held up by two white birds with
orange beaks. They lowered me down onto a beach of soft orange sand then I
walked down to the edge of the water which looked foamy. Opposite me was an
island that I wanted to go to but I saw no bridge so decided to create one by
visualising a black line running over to the island and this black line then
became a bridge that I crossed over. As I did so I realised the bridge was
actually a prehistoric animal with a large body, long thin tail and long thin
neck and head. I climbed on at the tail and off at the head. The island was
sand and palm trees and children were swinging from the trees. I carried on
into the island and saw lots of small ponds. The water was still and clear like
a mirror and I knelt down beside one to see my reflection but I also saw
another face reflected opposite mine looking like a Buddhist monk in an orange
gown. I then looked up expecting to see him opposite me but there was no one
there. The refection was still there then when I looked up a second time I saw
him sitting opposite me smiling. He began to speak about reality and illusion
and how not everything is how it seems. He held out his hands saying feel I am
real and sure enough I touched them but when he did this a second time I
couldn’t touch him and my hands when through his. He went on to talk about how
I had been thinking about this sort of thing and that I was on the right track
but had a long way to go and had a lot to learn and experience. It was now time
to go and the two white birds returned and flew me back up into the sky…
I put the music back on and we continued our session.
I had a pressure popping sensation in my left ear.
It was getting very blobby in front of me and light around
my sides.
I felt a sensation of something like an energy move through
me from behind and into the centre of the room.
The room was now looking very dark to me.
Liz was suddenly cold round her legs.
We were both drifting off for a while.
I got a strange vision of a white boat with a giant light
bulb on top of it.
Liz got the name ‘Denise
Levertov’ a poet, connected with ‘Hannah’
Liz was inspired to speak…
‘I’ve got an image of
gold plates, ornamental round gold plates, a bit like the sun, something to do
with a ritual. I’ve a feeling these two women were involved in a ritual, I
think Hannah was my grandmother. They said something earlier about the birthday
boy, lighting a candle for the birthday boy, one candle. These gold plates I
think are for the offering, the plates represent an abundance of offerings, I
don’t know if the offerings are poems. I’ve got a feather, white feather and
that sense of snow again. I see footsteps, behind the footsteps there’s a
circuitous route. They’re going back on themselves leading through this
terrain. There’s that grey wolf again and this is the shaman path, I see all
these creatures…’
‘I’ve got the ginger
bread, it’s like the Hansel and Gretel story, like that sweet house, the
distraction takes you off the path, sets up a trap, the honey trap. It’s a
caution not to be seduced by being very hungry, it’s a comfort, a safe familiar
gingerbread house, it’s a honey trap’
‘I’ve got all these
amulets, I got very hot, it’s like looking at these beads, these amulets all
the paraphernalia of the shamanistic path but looking beyond there’s a deep
pool just going towards the mountains, that’s where you should be setting your
sights, this deep crystal pool, the clarity, just don’t get caught up with all
that ritual and paraphernalia. It’s the pure clear water that’s to drink. I’m
just holding onto that image of the crystal clarity, that great pool of water’
‘I can see the light
in the candle stick again. I think you can use the light of the candle flame in
the same way’
‘I’ve got David. I’m
just welcoming David to the lights, to the candles that have been lit there to
welcome him. I’m telling him it’s okay, these lights are to welcome him into
his new life, that he’s still alive, it’s another vibratory level’
‘I have an image of
servants, ready to serve. It’s the plates, the service, it’s the gold plates of
the service and it’s the feeding of the lambs. That’s what’s the significance
of the gold plates, gold plates is the golden service, the service of the heart
of gold to purify that heart, to get to the crystal waters, the cleansing, the
purification’
There was a click that came out on the recording.
On this clip at 8 seconds.
‘It’s only a
reflection of the master, the master mind behind the gold plates, an image, the
signs are everywhere, there are the hints, the tender reminders that a force
and power behind the paraphernalia, behind all images, all the imaginings, all
the phenomena, all the magic and mystery. The gold plates of service are a
simple reminder of the great pure love, the joy, the abundance, the creative
spirit’
‘It’s the yearly
reminders, the birthdays, that what is born will die, that behind that is the
unborn and in that which is born, which dies is also the unborn. The birthday,
it’s to remind that behind all phenomena, changing phenomena, is the reality of
the unborn, uncreated, that which is the truth and to have a glimpse of it you
have to find your way to the crystal water in the high hills and these are the
words… Who shall ascend the hill of the Lord and who should stand in his holy
place, he who has clean hands and a pure heart who does not lift up his soul to
what is false…’
(Liz was quoting from psalm 24)
‘The years are flying
past all at different speeds but they are an illusion, there is no time, all
time is one time, all is one. Hannah just wants to remind that the candles of
the birthday boy are just to remind of the truth that that which is born dies
and that beyond all birth and death is the one, the ineffable, the true light,
without name, without form, that which is’
‘It’s Denise Levertov,
her book of poems, it’s taste and see and the taste is the drinking of this
deep, deep water of life, that crystal water is the water and if you drink this
water you drink deeply and never go thirsty again. You have to follow that path
into the wilderness through the wild places, the pure places avoiding the honey
trap. The austere hills, the mountains where the origin is the waters, untainted,
the source, go there and drink’
‘I think I’m being
shown there’s a quality to this water, this pathway in this physical reality
that registers the essence, this essential truth that allows it to be recorded
in the heart, that allows it to be seen more directly, more deeply, to
penetrate. It’s an equity of focus that if you get it while you are here it’s
lasting, can never be taken away. It’s the opening of the doorway to the never
ending stairs…’
The music ended.
Liz did the healing exercise, closing prayer and our closing
down exercise.
During the healing I had seen the two orange beaked white
birds again flying around the room in the energy.
Liz felt many presences with her during the session. She felt like a conduit
with a circle around her, a vortex of energy.
