This group began sitting in July 2013 as an experiment using the 'Basic Guide' published by the 'Scole Experimental Group' in 1996.

We've changed the way we sit over the years. I am continuing to develop trance mediumship and Liz gives a mixture of evidential clairvoyance, inspired speaking and trance...

Our intentions are to receive information that will help us understand the bigger picture, why we are here, what happens when we die, the mechanics of mediumship and how we can help in raising the quality of consciousness...

100th Sitting 06/04/2016


We had the room setup as last week and used the shorter music CD.
This will now be our usual setup unless we decided to change it again.

I did the opening prayer at 8.40pm, turned out the light and put the first tune on.
We did the Rainbow Bridge visualisation.

Liz started off on a pavement, on the kerb. There were puddles on the road and as Liz looked up she saw umbrellas everywhere, the road was filled with people holding umbrellas. As Liz tried to cross she was swept along in this sea of umbrellas and as it progressed the road petered out and seemed to merge into a dessert landscape, endless sand. She then saw pyramids which as she got closer looked more like white ziggurats. Liz was drawn towards them and she felt hands drawing her up the steps to a doorway that was engraved with patterns and signs. The hands pulled Liz through the door and she was suddenly in this absolutely cool space full of darkness and stars. It was like a sense of infinity, the whole universe all around her, an incredibly strange feeling like falling in a well. Liz then found herself in a school with children looking up at the stars and appreciating the infinity from the perspective of the Earth and then looking through a telescope like a scientist. There seemed to be a message in this and it was like there are so many ways to appreciate infinity. The children were being shown the appreciation of infinity through caterpillars and other creatures and looking at the trees and nature, a sense of exploration. It was as if every bit of learning we do is a learning of appreciation, a response to the great mystery of the universe, of infinity. Liz found herself back in the road of umbrellas but she knew that the hands were always there to pull her up and remind her and help with the understanding. Standing under the universe but it was all inside her…

I started off floating amongst white clouds; they were everywhere and looked like white candy floss. I wanted to know what they felt like so touched one of them and it burst and disappeared like a popped balloon. In its place was a man who looked like he was from India with a turban sitting cross legged playing some sort of wind instrument, floating in the air. I touched another cloud and again it burst this time leaving a large dog in its place like a Great Dane and then another one burst after I touched it leaving a white horse. Then all the clouds started to burst without me touching them and soon I was surrounded by hundreds of people and animals all floating in this void. I then noticed we all started to become connected by a thread which then pulled us all together forming one huge mass of people and animals which then turned into a bright white light like a star. Even though I was a part of this I seemed to be observing it from outside and I could see other stars surrounding it. They too became attached to this star by threads and were pulled into it forming one massive bright white light floating in this void. I tried to see it in more detail and as I looked I saw it was made up of all these strands of connection and I could also see all the people and animals who appeared to be oblivious that they were there as they were all going about their normal everyday Earthly activities, walking, working, reading and I saw Liz walking along the seafront looking at the sea and I even saw myself at home working on the computer and other people I recognised all going about their daily lives unaware that they were all connected and part of this bright white light…

I put the music back on and we continued the session…

I soon started to see silver/blue blobs floating about in front of me.
I had a pressure on my forehead which came and went during the session.

Liz became very hot.

I felt a few tickles in my hair.

Liz was now feeling cold.
I also felt cold.

I was seeing a few dim flashes around the room.

A few minutes before the music finished I felt a change of energy in the room.
It looked brighter, more charged and felt very dense.

When the music came to an end I verbalised that we would now sit in silence and anyone was welcome to communicate.

Liz then said…

‘I feel like I’m falling’

After a pause I asked…

‘Would it be okay to ask a question?’

‘Yes’

Me… ‘Okay, you’re very welcome. When the medium sits she feels a lot of presences around her, people she recognises. I’m wondering if you could explain what it is she’s experiencing when this happens?’

‘Memory… Right now the process is incomplete… time, next time… Memory is a song unsung, available to all, tapestry, field. Memory of the future, memory of the past, memory is the mirror, faces, memory is the mirror learning to see who you are, these people are always present, you can tap into them, glimpses, they are just connecting cords to strands, resonances. Sometimes the strands light up, become visible suddenly, it’s a resonance, tuning in to the song unsung so then it can be heard again’

Me… ‘Are the people that make up these memories aware that they are being remembered or have they gone on to do other things and are not connected to these memories?’

‘They are not what you think; they are both there and not there, both remembering their memories and forgetting them. They like echoes, they can hear as you sing their song, they too can hear and they may, they can be pulled into alignment. They are always there but always not there, always in many places, hard to describe being one and many. There are times, through a benefit of retrieval of the memory, it can be rekindled with part of the entity that inhabited it so yes and no. Yes you can frame it like that, yes those people are there, the people as they were at a time when you may have known them or before you knew them but they are also elsewhere so yes and no, they’re one and many, many and one, not only there but everywhere. So it’s useful to describe the memory in its clothing of familiarity but the love behind the memory is the active ingredient. Those that pass with great love and stretch out through all times, those of great love is like a very well-played, easily resonant string of a harp, it’s the one that always sounds, the one that even a breath of wind can activate, so sensitive, so responsive. Those are the faces, those are the people, those are the aspects of memory, the one to be reinhabited to let you know, to remind you of the love, to make you hear the unsung song which is always love and they come with that message, with that purpose, with that meaning, it’s their nature, it’s the connection. The only purpose of these presentations is to let you know that love has survived, that love is’

Me… ‘When you speak to me like this is it one person that is speaking or are you part of a team?’

‘It’s a memory speaking, the speaking is the universal words from all of us through the medium, or this one medium who is one and many, who is connected to all. The words belong to all of us but through the channelling the flavour is mediated through the channel’

Me… ‘Do you feel that the way we are sitting now is the best way for this development of communication or is there anything we can do to improve the way we sit?’

‘More spaces of silence, more patience, to allow the transformation. There has to be a shifting and it’s not always complete, not allowed enough time for completing. It will get quicker, it is already getting quicker but if you intervene too quickly the progress remains partial. With a little more patience we can allow for a complete transition’

Me… ‘So should I wait for more words to come through before I start to ask my own questions?’

‘That may help, that may be helpful’

Me… ‘Yes that makes sense’

‘Needing to reflect in already specific signals to the altered state, these are physiological changes that sign post the beginning of the readiness’

Me… ‘Maybe it would be a good idea if I wait for you to ask me to ask questions. That way I’ll know you’re ready’

‘That would be sensible’

Me… ‘Okay I’ll do that in future, that will give you time to settle in and make all the necessary adjustments’

‘That would because the medium is not quite sure what is happening’

Me… ‘You are still doing very well, very pleased with the results’

‘There is a serpent, a serpentine influence in the human mind and the desire to know definitively things that cannot yet be known and that impetuous desire for definitive knowledge curtailed the natural development of knowing. There is much uncertainty, unpredictability in a very probabilistic shifting creative reality. To pin it down can abort its optimum development process. That’s happened, that is happening all the time because of impatience, the desire for certainty, it’s been bred into the human intellect, it’s evolved in that way but it’s not fixed, it can be loosened like unloosening the hair. That will lead to a renewal, a regeneration, reshaping... “Ah love could thou and I with fate conspire, to change this sorry scheme of things entire, would we not shatter it to bits and then remould it nearer to heart’s desire” (from The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam) …but we fixed it trying to find the serpent prematurely, too soon, too inpatient’

Me… ‘Maybe there are no certainties?’

‘No’

Me… ‘I guess we have to learn to live happily with uncertainties and understand that we cannot know everything. We can get glimpses and ideas of things but it’s all very fluid, nothing is set in stone’

‘That’s true and you take the image of the butterfly lover that becomes a collector and his butterfly ends up pinned on a board. It wasn’t that he didn’t love the butterfly, he loved it but he wanted to hold it, to capture it, to keep it in one state and now he has it but it’s not flying there but the uncertainty holds in it or is held in love, it which is the matrix and that holds everything and even the temporary fixing, even the errors, even the mistakes, they are all part of love and there’s nowhere the human race or any being, or any reality any created aspect can go to be outside that love which is all. So the fear of the individual aspect that becomes fixed through its fear of uncertainty, its desire to be definitive, the fear is then that it is outside of that free flowing, free flying love and doesn’t know how to get back, but it’s there, it’s never been lost, it’s the unfixed. Become patient and in the fullness of time all will be revealed that’s meant to be revealed, will be self-revealing…’

There was a pause.

‘I’ve been with the little mother at Medjagorje. I’m glad to be with you now. Messages for many and for Sister Angela, you might know me as John’

Me… ‘Okay, would you like me to refer to you as John from now onwards?’

‘Sometimes, not always, but now’

Me… ‘Now you are John. Are you somebody I would recognise?’

‘No’

Me… ‘Are you somebody that the medium would recognise?’

‘Yes’

Me… ‘Are you coming through as your character on the Earth plane?’

‘Yes, that’s the connection, there’s a memory’

Me… ‘Do you have any memories of when you were on the Earth plane that you can talk about at all?’

‘Medjugorje, and the great love of the mother, the miracles, the devotion. These phenomena reminders resurfaced to link the human spirit again, to remember that they are all part of love, that it has never left. We’ve come now to the end and a message to relay to one and all that love enfolds the Earth in all beings for ever…’

Me… ‘Thank you for that’

As Liz started to come back she had a strange feeling of a serpent moving through her arms and hands, she couldn’t move for a while. She felt she was getting re-embodied as she came back.

Once Liz felt back with it again I did the healing exercise, closing prayer and closing down exercise.

Afterwards Liz felt that John was probably John Walsh someone she had known and who was connected with the Edgar Cayce Centre
