Wear Nothing, But Your Confidence

Went to the Gathering Place yesterday. Well, I call it the Gathering Place - because that´s what it feels like... it just doesn´t feel like a church. I had another medium reading. The lady said I was firmly grounded. I´m in a good place. I feel it... She said I´m getting a woman. You´re are alike. I feel it´s a Mother... a Grandmother... I said it´s my Mom. She passed away. I´m wearing her sweater. The lady said your Mom says you are in a doing place. You´re doing well. She said you can take back or let go... I knew what she was talking about. I´ve been stepping back from people in my life that add no value to my life. It´s nice to know she´s watching and she approves. She said my Mom is hugging me. I smiled because I know she is. She hugs me every time I wear her sweather. That´s why I wear them. After the reading I felt calm. Happy. Peaceful. It´s a pretty amazing space. She continued on with others... after the gathering we had coffee and treats. It was our Christmas gathering. Thank you Mom for spending our Christmas gathering with me xx And thank you Mary for making it possible xx

Last week on Sunday, I returned to The Star of Hope Spiritualist Church. We did our meditation, we had the opportunity to receive a spiritual healing, which I excepted. I brought a friend along, Jane, and she as well wanted to receive a spiritual healing. I actually felt a very warm vibration before the healer even touched me. She was moving her hands down my arms and I actually felt the heat from her hands. She said she liked the shirt that I was wearing which was actually my mothers who passed away to years ago. I told her that she said good, I feel your mother is here with you. That was very powerful. We had the service and the speaker did a spiritual reading for some of the people in the room. She reached out to me and said my grandmother was standing on the right side of me and she was holding something that looked like a stapler. And she was punching it down like as if to say It’s done it’s over put it all together complete it and Move on... everything is OK. I knew what she was really referring to and I felt extremely relieved. During my entire time there, I felt my Mom and Grandmothers presence. It was very strong. After the service my friend and I went outside into the gorgeous sunshine. Went for a walk and then went for a nice lunch. We both left the gathering feeling very happy, light and positive. On another note, it’s funny how the universe brings people together. One of the people there was selling their car. My daughter and her boyfriend desperately needed a new car but they didn’t have the money to buy one. This person sold them his car for an unbelievably low price that they were able to afford. These are the blessings that come from the space

Last week I went back to this church. Again, I walked away feeling loved and supported and just in a state of well being. Our special guest was Indigenous Elder John Trusscott. He created a drum ceremony with the respect and knowledge from the ´old ones´ helping to ensure his culture in our community, with his connections to the past wisdoms of his spiritual traditions. I asked to do a healing drumming circle for someone I was concerned about. After everyone had an opportunity to ask for a healing drumiming circle, he passed around a feather and if we wanted, we could say something... many had messages and visions. Some had messages for me. When it was my turn, I thanked Elder John Truscott and I thanked everyone for their messages. I also expressed that I had a vision when we drummed for the Children in unmarked graves. I saw a forest. With a river softly streaming. There were birds in the sky and it was a sunny beautiful day. There were children holding hands in a circle and they were dancing. They told me they were happy now. Tell everyone not to worry anymore. I did. I also had a feeling while drumming for the person I was concerned about. There were about 3 times that as I tried to lift my drumming stick and it was resisting me. I don´t know what that meant. Someone said the stick respresented the person I was drumming for. They were the stick and my hand was covering them like protection. They felt my protective hand.

What is a drumming circle? I found this article that explains what drumming is all about:

Michael Drake, Healing Power of the Drum Circle, Sacred Hoop Magazine, Spring 2003, Issue 40. Experience the power of drumming.

A friend invited me to an event today. It was a Sunday service with the Star of Hope Spiritualist Church. Not knowing what it was going to be like, I went because I liked that it was a spiritual church and because they were going to have a drumming circle after. I think I have been looking for this church all of my life. The firstly acknowledged the land the church is on (I am of two minds about this), then we had an opening prayer and song. The key speaker was a woman who spoke about angels being the messenger between God and us and then she proceeded to go around the room and ask if she could give each of us a spiritual message. It was fascinating! When she came to me I was nervous. I have had trauma and loss in my life and I was praying that I was going to have a positive uplifting message. Do you know what she said? She said that I need to be where she was standing. I´m going to go back to school to study ministry! Was she out in left field? No. I have thought about this most of my adult life. And I had just asked the Pastor about how he became a Pastor just before the service began. What a message!! After the service, we had a drumming circle in which we could ask for a healing drum for someone/something. It was very powerful as I have never participated in a drumming circle before. I found this church incorporates alot of indigenous traditions in their service. I love that.

Had the wonderful opportunity to visit Metepenagiag Heritage Park in Red Bank, New Brunswick. My great grandmother was of the Mi´kmaq Nation. The Mi’kmaq of Metepenagiag have lived in this place since time immemorial. Handed down to them through generations of oral history, they have lived on this land, a vibrant and spiritual life, and inseparable from Mother Earth. I stayed in a tipi, and booked the Ookdotaan experience. Our tour guide Malcalm guided us through their modern Metepenagiag Interpretative Centre, took us on a guided tour, and then, together, we made an authentic lunch: Bass from the river cooked in hot stones from the fire, elderberry tea, and lusknikn (sounds like loose-skin-agin) with jam and butter. If you ever have the opportunity to visit, do so! I was disappointed. We left the day the Pow Wow began :(
I would lilke to make this experience a yearly one!!
