21st Sitting 23/01/2014

After the encouragement we received during last Monday’s Mercury Light sitting we decided to repeat our ‘cross experiment’ doing it in exactly the same way as last week.

The room was set up as usual and as always we kicked off with our ‘Rainbow Bridge Exercise’ at 8.30pm…

Liz started off feeling her feet on hard baked ground at the edge of an enormous lake. To her left was a huge bridge, like a suspension bridge, going up into the clouds. It seemed to be very industrial and busy with lots of traffic going over it. She didn’t really want to walk over the bridge as it was so busy and when she looked up she saw Chinese hot air balloons like paper lanterns coming down offering to carry her over the bridge and they did. There were Chinese ladies in wonderful silk kimonos with beautiful embroidery of trees, flowers and animals. Liz was told she didn’t have to traverse the busy bridge, which represented the world; she could circumvent it by imagination and over on the other side was a place of imagination. Exotic ferns, lush trees and most wonderful animals, which she recalled seeing before in a dream, like yellow tigers with green eyes and other unusual tame wild animals. One of the Chinese ladies became real and Liz sensed she was a friend. She told Liz there was a lot to study and learn there, lots of information available and encouraged her to feel she could join them at any time. She then gave Liz a lift back to her side.

I started off on a grass bank and before I got to the bridge I had to go through a swing gate and down a path lined with bushes. The bridge was big and seemed to get bigger the more I looked at it. It was particularly high in the middle. Then I found myself getting bigger and feeling disorientated before I shrunk back to my normal size. I was aware of a man in a grey bowler hat and suit who seemed to be trying to stop himself laughing. I didn’t see him as part of the scene but was just aware of him with me.  I made my way up the steep slope to the middle of the bridge and noticed a procession of tall giraffes going under it and it occurred to me this was why the bridge was so tall as their heads only just cleared the bridge. They all seemed to have several smoke rings around their long necks. I didn’t meet anybody on the bridge but still had the sense of the man in the bowler hat with me. Over the other side I saw a busy wide road with lots of traffic speeding up and down. Just before returning to my side I saw the man in the bowler hat on the bridge but he’d changed into what looked like a wizard with long white hair, beard and white robes…

I did the opening prayer and reminded the team we were going to do our cross experiment during the American Indian tune.

Liz was seeing a few light shapes in the room and described the atmosphere as marbling.

It looked speckly everywhere to me.

I felt a light touch under my right foot and around my right ear.

Then I got an itchy feeling in my left ear.

Liz felt a pressure on her face like she had it pressed against a window.

She felt someone was with her and she was looking at them through this window but not quite able to make them out.

She got the name Mary.

Liz felt a tickle on the left side of her neck.

It now looked black in the centre of the room to me but light and misty to my sides.

My feet were getting very cold spreading up to my knees.

I felt a tug on my right trouser leg then a touch on the back of my right hand.

I could sense someone to my right.

It was very light to my right and I felt a lot of touches around my right ear.

Liz said she could see a pink/gold light above me, a bit like apricot and she could see moving lights going up within it.

My right side was very cold and fuzzy.

I felt touches in my hair.

Liz saw a blue/green light near the ceiling. The colours made her think of a kingfisher.

I hadn’t noticed any of these colours but I was now aware of a salmon colour to my right.

Liz confirmed this described what she saw also.

Liz was aware of light and Gothic arch patterns to her right, a bit like an ‘N’ shape.

I heard a noise like a stomach rumble, it didn’t come from my stomach but appeared to be somewhere to my right. There is nothing in that area that could have made the noise. We do hear the adjoining neighbours sometimes but they are to the left of me. It was very quiet and Liz didn’t hear it but I was surprised to find it was picked up on the voice recorder which sits to my right, quite a distance from the noise.

It’s four seconds into this clip…

AUDIO CLIP

Liz was seeing black and beige speckled patterns.

I saw a bluish speckled pattern with a few vertical lines coming down and moving across like waves. It looked a bit like folds in curtains.

I saw a few white wispy bits looking like smoke spiralling.

Liz saw what she described as threads of light coming down from the ceiling which sounded very much like what I was seeing.

Then I saw a bright pin prick light flash on and off just above the table. It was as bright as the luminous tabs on the table.

Liz also reported a few pin prick lights.

It now looked darker to my right and the middle of the room looked light.

I saw another bright pin prick to my left then another above the table.

I felt a light touch on the back of my neck and something like a finger pushing down on the top of my head.

Both my legs felt fuzzy and I had a pressure on the back of my left foot.

I saw another pin prick near the ceiling.

Liz was very cold.

I heard the stomach rumble sound again to my right but it didn’t pick up on the recorder this time.

I felt a touch on my left knee, a tickle on my nose and a cold fuzzy feeling on my right hip.

The American Indian tune came on so we tried once again to see the cross.

Liz got very warm, the same as she had at this point last week.

I saw a very bright ball shaped yellow blob that was moving in a circular motion.

Then it seemed to come close to me filling my vision.

I saw pin prick lights within it then it changed to a blue/purple colour.

It seemed to be forming into a vertical line getting darker each side of it.

Liz saw a purple horizontal line going right across the room.

Then she saw a shining white vertical line but didn’t see both at once.

As soon as the next tune started the things we were seeing faded away.

We both noticed we had sticky eyes.

Liz felt a burning cold feeling around her head and shoulders.

I felt a cool breeze over my forehead.

Both Liz and I felt cold all over.

The tunes ended.

Liz did the healing exercise, closing prayer and our closing down exercise.

Another good evening, we seem to be getting somewhere with our cross experiment and will continue next time…

20th Sitting 16/01/2014

This week we decided to try an extra experiment during our sitting…

Anyone who has studied etheric matter or ectoplasm will know that it is extremely susceptible to the impact of thought both from the spirit operators and circle sitters. Many times in the past ectoplasm has been built into the shape of any thought-form that dominates the minds of the sitters during a séance. This usually happens without them realising they are doing it and they assume it to be the work of the spirit team. With this in mind we decided for the duration of one tune only to try and manipulate the ectoplasm ourselves. We chose the American Indian tune which is quite long and comes on about half-way through the sitting and decided to try and form a cross above the table.

Also the day after last week’s sit Liz found one of the pin-pong balls was missing off the table and found it under a chair. This was probably caused by wind as Liz opened the door as I’m sure we would have heard it bounce or seen it move by the luminous tab had it happened during last week’s sit.

Just to be sure this week we made a note of exactly where each ball was placed on the table and checked they were all still in their places when we put the lights back on after our sit.

As always we started with our Rainbow Bridge Exercise at 8.30pm.

Liz found herself walking barefoot through squelchy grass to the bridge which was shrouded in a dazzling mist and rainbow. As she walked onto the bridge she felt warm rough asphalt under her feet. A woman with wings, like a fairy, flew towards her then became just a woman in a simple duck blue dress with blonde hair coiled in a plat. She was very friendly and allowed Liz to touch her to show she was real. Liz felt like she was reaching out as the woman led her across the bridge. Lots of hands were reaching out to her drawing her on. The other side was just grass and meadow but full of lovely people. It felt like a nursery rhyme scene and the grass now felt dry beneath her feet...

I started on a grassy bank then walked down to the bridge. At first it felt I was still on the bank watching myself walk down to the bridge but I finally found myself there. I had to climb a lot of steps to get on the bridge then saw a slide in front of me which I slid down reaching the middle of the bridge which opened out into a stage. A group of female ballet dancers were spinning round on the stage while swans swam past on the lake below. Then the ballet dancers took off flying around above me. All I could see on the other side were trees with flashing pin prick lights between them. One of the ballet dancers came down reaching out her hand to pull me back up the slide so I could return to my side…

I did the opening prayer including a reminder to the spirit team that we would be doing our experiment during the American Indian tune.

I put the music back on.

I was feeling light headed and I kept seeing dim flashes in the room.

Liz saw wispy bits moving around over the table.

She saw blobs in the room and felt a cool breeze from her right.

I felt a fuzzy feeling on my right arm.

Liz felt a gentle tugging on her hair from the right.

I was warm but it was getting cold round my legs.

I could see a kind of moving fog to my sides and it was dark but blobby in front of me.

Liz had a drawing/tingling feeling on the front of her scalp as if her hair was being gently pulled again.

I felt a tingle on the back of my left leg then I felt three feathery touches across the back of the forefinger on my right hand.

The room looked light to me.

Liz saw lights in the middle of the room which changed into a misty form.

I could see a few wispy bits in the middle of the room as well as a line coming down from the ceiling.

Then it looked like smoke coming up from the table in waves which we both saw.

I had some tickles in my hair behind my right ear.

The room looked light and misty to me.

Liz was now seeing what she described as a geometric structure in the middle of the room which had a bluish light under it.

I couldn’t see this but I did see lots of white wispy bits swirling around in the middle of the room.

The room now looked darker to me.

Liz was getting lots of cool breezes and felt like a stream of energy was coming towards her.

She saw a flash near the ceiling.

I now felt very cold especially down my right side.

I also was aware of a glow to my right and felt a friend was standing there.

We both picked up a strong smell. Liz likened it to matches. I thought it was more like the ozone smell you get after a rain shower. Liz agreed.

We both couldn’t stop yawning.

The room was looking sparkly to me.

Liz saw bluish misty forms moving near the table.

I felt a pressure around my right ear and heard a faint crackling sound near it.

Liz felt cobwebs over her head.

It was time for our experiment as the American Indian tune came on.

We both fixed our gaze just above the table and tried to manipulate the ectoplasm into the shape of a cross.

After a few seconds I began seeing a few wispy bits.

Then I saw diagonal lines and pin-prick lights.

Next I saw a big yellow blob build up which looked like it was made up of fibres, a bit like fibre-glass matting.

Liz hadn’t seen anything up to this point but now saw what she described as yellowy cotton wool.

She was very hot and felt a strong drawing from her solar plexus.

The tune ended before either of us saw anything like a cross.

Despite this it had been an interesting experiment and obviously something was happening.

Liz summed up the experiment…

‘At least we’ve discovered that we’re not very good at making a cross… So if one suddenly appears it may very well not be us!!!’

I was now seeing diagonal lines from my top left to bottom right field of vision.

Liz saw them as well.

I got the feeling the table was going down as if I was levitating but my feet were still firmly on the floor.

I felt tickles on the back of my head and on my nose.

We both reported the ozone smell again.

Liz then described a blue plume going from bottom right to top left of her field of vision, like a bushy tail.

She felt something in her hair.

I was very cold.

I drifted off a bit during the penultimate tune.

I thought I heard somebody say that they had seen the cross. Then I had a vision of a beautifully crafted shiny black marble cross. It then faded to be replaced by two branches held together with string making another somewhat basic cross.

We both thought the room had gone uniformly black apart from the luminous tabs on the table that shone out like stars as the last tune played.

Then Liz saw some red blotches above the table.

I felt something in my hair.

The last tune came to an end.

Liz did the healing exercise followed by the closing prayer then the closing exercise for us both.

I put the red light on and checked the position of the balls and everything on the table which was how we had left it.

A good evening with plenty of phenomena reported from start to finish…

19th Sitting 09/01/2014

We were back in the garage after the Christmas/New Year break.

As always we kicked off with the rainbow bridge exercise at 8.30pm.

Liz found herself going down a forest path with ferns each side to a rocky beach where a stream ran into an enormous lake. The bridge was pearl white and a fine rain was creating rainbows. There were fish and dolphins jumping out of the water and Liz could see fountains, rocks and castles over the other side like a fairy tale scene.

As Liz walked over the bridge she saw Chinese ladies with fans floating towards her becoming more like cardboard cut-outs as they got close. Also a blond haired peasant type farmer with a horse and cart and a pig walked towards her. She felt she knew him. Liz decided to ride the pig which began to fly taking her to the other side. The farmer told her she could do whatever she wanted on that side. As the tune ended Liz got the pig to fly her back to her own side.

My visualization began at the bridge where I found a bicycle. I decided to ride it over the bridge; I was wobbling from side to side and stopped half way across. I saw a crowd of people walking towards me in dark robes and hoods. It looked like much of their faces were covered too. One was swinging a smoking thurible, something I’ve noticed before. Coming along behind them was what looked like the Mad Hatter riding a very tall penny farthing.

The smoke from the thurible was going into my mouth filling me with an energy. The scene before me became much brighter and clearer and the  people’s robes were now white.

They all then returned to their side and me to mine.

I did the opening prayer then put the music back on.

I felt pressure on my forehead and an irritation in my throat and I had an echoy sensation in my ears.

I saw a few flashes near the ceiling.

Liz was seeing moving shapes like cotton wool.

She had a sense of a network of fibres in the room.

She saw a fleeting light go from right to left.

She could see something like water, curling and coiling. A bit like clouds changing shape, reddish and misty.

I could see light coloured mist each side of me and a few wispy bits moving around in the dark in front of me.

Liz saw moving patterns like lines of iron filings or the patterns in wood.

It looked to me like it was getting darker and a bit bluish in the centre of the room.

Liz also saw blue in the room.

She could make out an archway going across the room.

My legs were now cold.

We’d both been warm up to now.

I had a fuzzy sensation on the back of my head.

My eyes closed for a few seconds then I noticed a flash which got my attention and I opened them again.

Liz didn’t see any flashes at that point but she had a sense of a shape in the middle of the room.

We then both had the sensation of misty light around the outside of the room but dark in the centre.

It was like looking down a cone or through a tunnel.

Liz saw a flash to her right.

I was seeing horizontal waves moving downwards.

My left ear was clicking and popping.

It felt like something came out of it and remained at the opening.

Liz felt a cool breeze over her left ankle.

Then she felt something stroke her left hand.

I was seeing bright white/yellow blobs coming and going in front of me.

It looked foggy to both of us.

I felt a pressure on the side of my right leg.

We now both thought the room was very dark.

Liz noticed a moving light on the table. It came and went suddenly making her jump.

I didn’t see it.

My nose was getting blocked and I was now cold all over.

Liz also had a blocked nose.

I drifted off for a bit at about the half-way point and came back remembering a dream…

I had seen a wall in front of me. It was bright and glowing and I noticed part of it had collapsed allowing me to get over it. I was then faced with a similar partially collapsed wall which I again went over. This continued until I reached a seventh wall but this time I couldn’t get over it. There was some sort of combination lock stopping me. I had the feeling I’d be able to get over the seventh wall when I’ve found the combination.

Things were quiet for a while with neither of us reporting anything.

Liz felt she was being overshadowed by another entity that was merging into her to experience what she was experiencing. It was a friendly insect-like entity.

I drifted off again towards the end and had another dream…

I saw the earth with a bright white foamy substance surrounding it. A bit like the frothy head on a beer. I got the impression this was the healing energy created and sent out by all the circles throughout the world. There was a giant man who was scooping up segments of the foam and directing it to specific places around the earth.

The music ended and Liz did the healing exercise, then the closing prayer and our closing down exercise.

We both felt this week’s sitting had gone really fast.

To help stay focused Liz had several times come back to the bridge in her thoughts to get the feeling of reaching out and wanting to make the contact.
