Coffee, Cake & Clairvoyance

Last night we held a Coffee, Cake & Clairvoyance evening at our Como Centre.  This was not something that I felt a particular need to do, but I have to recognise that a lot of people like this sort of thing.

The hall was full of people eagerly awaiting the medium, and a potential message.  The medium worked for a couple of hours and yes, there was coffee and cake too.  Those who received messages were happy and everyone agreed that it was a great evening.  We have even had requests to do it again.

So why am I not keen to do this sort of thing?  Well, firstly I guess because I no longer need proof of life after death.  I no longer need messages from my loved ones, they are with me all the time.  If I want to communicate with those who have gone, I am finding myself more and more able to do so.

You’ll notice a thread running through this – the word “I”.  So taking “me” out of it, because that is my selfish side, my ego getting in the way, I have to admit that a lot of people were comforted last night by the messages received.   And who am I to deny them that comfort?

Indeed, my own spiritual journey began on such a similar evening – in a Spiritualist Church receiving a message from my Mum via a medium.  And that message went on to change my life. 

There were those I talked to last night who were so stunned by the accuracy of their messages that they want to go on and learn more.  In time they, too, will come to understand that clairvoyance is only scratching the surface and there is so much more to learn.  And that is the essence of what we are trying to achieve at Como, to help those who are eager to learn; to provide a safe space for those who want to develop.  There is much work to be done.

So we will certainly do more clairvoyant evenings, and I will accept their value and just because I no longer have a need of them, others do.

Having said all that, it certainly was a fun evening.

Interpretation

One of my Reiki clients had been suffering from a whole range of emotional issues which led to addiction to medication and estrangement from a parent.  However, the Reiki and listening that I was giving was beginning to prove very beneficial.

Early one morning I began thinking about this client who was due for another Reiki session a little later that day.  Two pictures formed in my mind which seemed quite bizarre and not connected to my client – or were they?

The first picture was of an adult elephant and a baby one.  The large elephant was leading the way, the baby following behind and the view I had was from behind the baby.  A darkness surrounded the pair but there was light around the edge of the picture.   All quite strange and what did it mean?  I pondered this for a while and my thoughts were that the parent had always led the child and, in turn, had blocked the view of what lie ahead.  When the child found out that the parent was not perfect, a darkness surrounded their relationship.  However, the light around the edge of the picture made me feel that the pair would find their way through the situation.  Not sure why the elephants though!

The second image I had was of two empty bowls with spoons in.  I somehow knew that the bowls had once been filled with food and I felt that the parent and child had eaten the food together.  Another sign perhaps of a relationship that might possibly be on the mend.

It seems amazing that I am now beginning to get images and my intuition is beginning to give interpretations.  Is this the beginning of clairvoyance, I wonder.

On the other hand, I could have gotten it all totally wrong !!!!
