When you meditate or visualise or even dream – who stars in these? And what does that mean? This was received from a former student of mine and we thought it may help those of you to whom this has happened...“Recently I woke up in the early morning (about 4am) feeling panicky and emotional. I had no idea why – consciously, there was nothing obvious on my mind. I decided to do the “Repairing Your Shield” meditation you taught us, although I hadn’t done it for several months.
Often, I struggle to “visualise” in these meditations (ie I get irritated that I can’t nail the details of what I’m seeing) but on this occasion it was brilliant. I was in a sunny, airy room where I was very comfortable and could work on my shield with complete clarity. What was interesting is that two people came into this room (although I know that’s not the aim of the meditation). One was unknown to me: an older, bearded man, who felt like a guide. Not a guide who had been present previously; I felt he was Australian. His message was clear and positive.
The other person in the room was you, Julianna… speaking in your typical, very direct voice!! And just as useful and welcome.
So, my question is this: when we are meditating, how should we interpret the people who come to us? Since you’re not a guide, I find myself wondering whether your presence, Julianna, was my brain giving a very familiar face and voice to the information I had learnt from you previously? Or is there another explanation? I’m intrigued because both people present felt equally “real”, although they were imparting very different information. Love to hear your thoughts.
… Oh, and yes, I did ultimately get back to the purpose: repairing my shield!!!” Ms J.
Hey Ms J, you just highlighted a key insight into the difference between a Guide and another entity, person or representation within your meditation when you said: “One was unknown to me: an older, bearded man, who felt like a guide.”
You see it is quite important when learning Guidance and Intuitive Development that you learn to FEEL the difference. Many practitioners will teach you what I consider to be dogma, or as my Dad would say, ”the hoodoo of their trade”, which is how we should recognise our Guides by going through a phase of wrapping protection and such around us before we “connect” with this entity. I remain in the K.I.S. camp with development: Keep It Simple.
You are a frequency, not an energy. Frequency is a form of energy but is externally derived - like a radio band that you tune into. Your Guides are also separate frequencies. When these frequencies – yours and theirs - are tuned into each other you will FEEL the sensation and have the realisation that your Guides are around you. It is in basic terms a knowing.
When you experience this tuning in or knowing there is no need, in my opinion, to examine why your Guides are there but rather to trust your ‘knowing’ to move on the information without any mental rhetoric from yourself.
In the instance when someone you have known, currently know, or have been in development with, such as a teacher or mentor
appears, often they will do so for no other reason than it is a representation of what you need to be working on or with. So in the instance with Ms J, I would have come in as a representation or reminder of what she needed to review or implement within her life in that arena again.
Both your Guide and your ‘Representation Person’ (for lack of a better word) will come in and feel equally real because each form comes in with viable and usable information. Whilst one is within the solid form of a Guide, the other is your neurology or subconscious coming in via a form that is familiar to you to trigger your memory retention so that you can re-apply the information.
I personally love when this happens as it is a combination of Spirit and Neurology and I often feel that the Neurology is supporting what Spirit is telling me I should be looking into or at!
So go day-dream, meditate and ponder. Allow your Neurology to play with Spirit and learn to develop your Intuition to a keener position!
