Yesterday I met a man who had cried when he witnessed my DVD, Healing Burned Woman. He said he often thinks of that time in our history and finds himself crying. I told him, “I think you are doing a SOUL SERVICE when you have that experience.” As those words, “Soul Service,” came out of my mouth, the thought came that I too was doing Soul Service that morning so long ago when I woke up hearing the words, “There once was a time a horrible time”
In the year 2000 Jim and I took a trip to Europe, visiting Findhorn spiritual community and joining a tour of sacred sights on Orkney Island, Harris and Lewis Islands and Iona. I had just met Mano. He told me he would be guiding our trip. I would see and feel his presence periodically as we traveled.
I had an awareness during a meditation some time in my 40’s. I became aware that I am a member of a spiritual team. I had volunteered to come to the world for a specific work and the other members of my team would stay in the heavenly realms and watch over me and guide my decisions and actions.
I have received the sweet newsletter, GNOME NEWS, for many years. Today I want to share some of the stories in the latest issue:
Last week I realized I need more time to myself. More time to do what is mine to do, my service to the world by being me. Doing what only I can do. As I look at my past I think my art, my painting, is my most focused and important service I have done.
Each time I go to the studio I align with my Council: Mano, Rama, and Joseph. After a period of meditation, I start painting by intuitively putting colors and shapes on the canvas.
A while ago I had a big surprise that turned into a revelation. The Visiting Nurse came to check my vital signs. They were all normal. The nurse was surprised, I was surprised, my caretaker was surprised. My daughter Donna Theresa was not surprised.
While sorting through papers to bring order in my sitting area I found a small stack of papers held together with a red paper clip entitled TREES. I want to share some of these stories with you. These papers were written between 1996 and 2001. The stories I share today were written when I first began learning and relating more deeply with a new dimension of Tree Consciousness available while visiting the Amphitheater.
Every morning for the last 20 years I do a three card Tarot reading. I type it into the computer and my Council, Rama (an angel), Mano (a gnome), and Joseph (of the Faerie Consciousness) guide my thinking and I write the interpretation into the computer. If I have questions, I write them into the computer and someone from the Council give me the answer. If I have any question about what I receive, I use my pendulum and get a yes or no answer to verify the accuracy of my hearing their guidance.
There is a little more to tell you of my Council.
Sometime in October each year when the weather has a special magical feeling called Indian Summer my friend Andrea and I take a Sentimental Journey. We drive south to the Monterrey/Carmel coast called the 17 MILE DRIVE. White sandy beach tucked into huge rocks with wild and splashing waves call us to sit and absorb this powerful and magical space where ocean and shore meet. Our next stop is to return to a favorite place, Asilomar Conference Grounds.
This is a question many people ask. I am reprinting Mary Jane’s Blog from 2013 with her understanding. My, Barbara’s, simple answer is to simply understand they are Nature Spirits in service to Mother Earth in the realm of air, fire, water, earth.
