The room was set up as it is on Mondays, the only change being we swapped places and Liz sat in the cabinet and this time we had it closed.
The intention was that if Liz felt inspired to speak or felt she was to be controlled she would let that happen.
I did the opening prayer at 8.30pm, turned out the red light and put the music on which is a 75 minute CD with tracks chosen by Liz.
Five minutes later I was getting very cold round the legs and had a pressure on my forehead.
Then I felt tickles down each side of my face. It felt like something was trickling down.
I felt something tickling in my left ear.
Liz then began to speak…
‘Somebody I can see, a man with a sort of pinkie face, blonde hair, youngish… Open neck shirt, grey jacket. He’s been in the sun. Francis. It’s curly hair, very blonde, slightly red skin. Seems to be under a palm tree, flowering tree. He’s smiling…’
It was getting cold in front of my legs again, felt like a cool breeze.
Liz continued…
‘Get the word community, I think they want me to talk about community, comes from sharing, a sense of being united, enjoying shared endeavour and it’s that that we need to get back. The simplicity and joy of a shared life, like bees, it’s a harmony, to join in community, it’s a blessing. Has the same effect as singing in a choir where everyone has their part but the whole comes together as a harmonious enterprise, created unison’
It was looking misty in the room.
Then it started looking lighter, a cream/yellow colour.
I felt cold and fuzzy down my right side and I felt a touch on my left foot.
Liz seemed to be taken more out of it for a while.
She didn’t speak for about 25 minutes and then continued…
‘It’s the kaleidoscope, the pattern. Then you get bored, then it wears thin, you just a little wiggle and you change it. The same elements but a new look, a new way of seeing, a new pattern. And in community you come together, first one way in a joint enterprise, sharing and the elements break up and reunite and another way for another activity, like clouds… It’s the same units but the union. The knack is the point of change, to let go of the pattern so a new one can start to form, so trust… It’s like the bird has to break the shell to hatch. You have to let go of the old patterns and swim free from it and then the calling together, reconvening for new work is creation. This is the creation of new ways of being. Out of so many simple units repeated pattern you can get so many new formations…’
Me… ‘Are they like snowflakes?’
‘Just a twist of the wrist and the pattern’s broken and a new one begins to come into being, yeh, crystallization… But there has to melt, the crystals have to break up or it would just, everything would come to a standstill, frozen into immobility. But that’s not the way, movement and change, reshaping like the clouds in the sky…’
I saw a flash to my right.
Liz continued…
‘I feel I have a lady with me, Pat who I knew; I don’t know if she’s still… I had a feeling she’s telling me she had a stroke…’
Me… ‘Well she’s very welcome’
‘I think I saw her in a dream recently, she was the lady with the red hair’
Me… ‘Has she any other message for the circle?’
Li said she could feel them working with her throat, then continued…
‘The community, she was a dancer…’
Me… ‘Does she bring an energy with her?’
‘Yes it’s passing through me… Sam… and she was with the archaeologists… The great value of community, of the joint enterprise, of the sharing, of the striving together, to create and this is love in action. It’s the expression, the true community… But from where I am now I can see the great value, the importance, joy… and these little enterprises like the kibbutzim unions all these social enterprises are a forerunner, a shadow, an expression, an attempt to create the love in action… enjoy, appreciate…’
‘It’s the shadow dancing I can see, Pat’s hands, like on the sheet where you make the pattern and that’s what the spirits are doing behind the scenes they’re these efforts to reshape communities to come together all these enterprises where communities join they’re inspired, they’re the shadow dancing from, we are breathing into them, we are the motivators, we motivate, so when you see these efforts to combine, to produce new communities, new ways of coming together you know that the motivation is from spirit… We’re close behind; they’re shadows of our love…’
‘There are these invisible threads, runners, links, joining all these efforts together, into a mosaic, into a pattern. Then with one shake reforms and regroups it’s all manifestation of our motivation of our thought…’
‘Francis is here again, leaning on his spade or rake, he’s pleased’
Me… ‘Would he like to say anything to the circle?’
‘He just endorses the way of work, of simple simplicity, contentment’
Me… ‘Has he any advice for this circle?’
‘To allow the shining to come through, to turn to the light, to remain a conduit, to feel part of this larger community, to be aware, being a nexus, a link, a hub… For the power to accumulate for these patterns, to reform, to reshape, to regenerate these links are necessary, focuses of the light, the power. This is what we’re doing. It’s like we’re the shadow dancers for the motivation for the spirit. For it to come through you need the conduit, the nexus, the hub, the focus and that provides the energy to shake the strings and the threads in the material world and along those threads the changes, the pattern can begin to jiggle and change. The energy can accumulate to affect that switch over. This is happening, pattern is changing but the energy to make that flip over, we need these hubs, these vortexes, nexus, power centre and a force will travel along the threads out to give energy, to reshape and the time is coming when these new communities will form based on love, shared endeavour, all in the light, all united in love, in simplicity… in contentment…’
The music CD ended.
Liz was still a bit spaced out so I gave the team time to withdraw before doing the closing prayer, sending out healing and our closing down exercise.
Liz felt she had been taken partially out of it during the session and she’d felt a buzzing energy when Pat was with her.
