It was time for Liz’s turn in the cabinet.
As usual we set the room up exactly the same as in our Monday Mercury Light Circle, Liz and I swapped places and the music CD was a selection made by Liz.
Last Monday Liz had been given advice on sitting for trance. In the past she has worked in a more ‘inspired speaking’ way. This time she was going to experiment by just repeating words that come to her and try not to elaborate with her own imagination.
I did the opening prayer setting the intent for trance development with Liz then turned out the red light and put the music on.
The energy seemed to build quickly in the room and after about five minutes felt thick and dense.
I had pressure on my forehead and felt a few touches and tingles around my right ear.
It was getting very cold in front of me.
Liz said…
‘Toby… Tobacco…’
There was a white mist building up in the room.
I had a fuzzy feeling in my legs and a pulling from the back of my neck.
Liz continued…
‘Double eight… Eighty eight…’
I felt light touches on the back of my fingers.
The room still looked white and misty.
Liz continued…
‘Galloways… Oyster, oyster… Raucous, Raucous… O-sphere, like a double O… Goon… Unity… Dotty Cameron, Belmore Street, Shauna and Olatunji… Book end… Irandhir, Cursty… Fish head, lots of fish, Herrings… Stifle… Detective… Dobbin… Confucius or confused… Stertorous, sanctorius… Telephone link… Paderewski… Pomp and circumstance… Collosus… Silver… Ohio… Taylor… Finkelstein… Phew… Tobias… Narcissus… Narcolepsy… Naressa… Nemesis…’
The room was now looking a peach colour.
Liz continued…
‘Nat… (she couldn’t get this word but felt it was something nautical) Terrance… Hepsibar… Sibber… Astronomical… Horoscope… Chronology… Sidereal… Constants… Simarik… Susurrant like somatessa… Rosy, Rosia…’
The music ended.
Liz was slowly coming back after being in an altered state.
I then did the closing prayer, sent out healing and did the closing down exercise.
Liz had fallen asleep at some point during the session. She felt very disoriented when she woke up, thinking she was in bed. It took her a while to realise where she was.
Liz had sensed many people around she knew and felt they were all trying to get words to her.
She saw a lot to do with astrological charts and nautical terms but couldn’t get all the words clearly.
She’d felt a tight band around her middle.
Liz had also felt movements in her throat and had made a few quiet huffing and oooo sounds.
When Liz was telling me all this I saw a pin-prick light above me.
We both felt it had been an interesting and useful experimental session. We will continue in a similar way next time we sit unless we get any further advice to do things differently...
