When I received the answers to Bobby’s questions, I felt such dread. Sometimes it’s so hard to deliver news that I know is not what that person hopes to hear. But Bobby was so wonderful about it. For that, I’m grateful to him! He’s obviously a man with an iron constitution.
Since this was the last question I could squeeze in for the session, I had only a couple of minutes to ask Erik what’s been up in his “life.” His response was a bit of a surprise!
Bobby’s Question
Though I’m fortunate to not be grieving any relative’s passing at this time, I have been very troubled by an intermittent relationship with my now ex-wife. Its caused me years of grief and an inability to move forward in my life. I would like to ask Erik to find out what role this person played in my past life. I feel there is something I need to do, some lesson I must learn from this relationship in this life, but I’m stuck. I need some guidance. Any light Erik could shed would be GREATLY appreciated. I live in North Hills, California and am 41 years old. Vickie, 38 years old and she lives in Covina, California.
Please ask Erik, if I’m supposed to not be with her anymore. What keeps me drawn to her?
Thanks again for the work you do. When I found your site via the Huffington Post, I spent the better part of a whole work-day reading it…could not stop.
Much love to you.
Bobby
Channeling Transcript
Me: This next one comes from Bobby, a 41 year-old guy living in North Hills, California. He’s having a hard time with his relationship with Vickie, his ex-wife. It causes him such grief and makes it difficult for him to move forward in life. He wants to know what role she played in his past life and what lesson he must learn. Vickie is 38 and lives in Covina, California.
Jamie (laughing): Erik calls her “The Wicked Witch!”
Me: Oh, no!
Jamie: Apparently she is kind of manipulative and painstakingly mean.
Me: Oh, gosh. Any reason for that? Is she there to teach him something, to learn from him?
Erik: Yes, both. The main lesson is that Bobby was supposed to stand up for himself as soon as it felt wrong and say, “I don’t accept this! I don’t like this!” And then he was supposed to cut it clean. But you see, then that would be cutting the person he loves. That’s what he couldn’t learn. So he had to suffer again and again and again until finally he was so beaten down, he had no other choice.
Me: Okay.
Erik: So it’s about self-worth for Bobby. Setting boundaries. And Mom, will you just remind Bobby that within this freedom he will find a really passionate love for himself?
Me: Sure. Of course.
Erik: He’s going to be so happy once he’s done being tired. He’s so tired, because he’s still thinking about it all the time. And they did have past life relationships, male/female, same roles, husband/wife.
Jamie (listening to Erik): Holy cow! Are you kidding?
Me (very concerned): Oh, no! What is it, Erik?
Erik: She would poison him a little bit every day until he finally died, and then she took his estate.
Me: Oh my God!
Erik: Apparently, he was a wealthy businessman in England, and she wanted to marry somebody else. But if she got a divorce, she wouldn’t have the house and everything like that.
Me: Oh!
Erik: Every day she poisoned him through food and all the things that are supposed to nourish you!
Me: Oh, no! That’s horrible! This is going to be so hard to tell him. Is she here to learn anything? Was this part of a spiritual contract they made with each other between lives?
Erik: No, Mom. Sorry, but she’s really just a bitch. But they chose that pattern again, because the love is so strong. They’re familiar with each other. They knew they could love each other, but Bobby stayed in it too long. If he had stayed even longer, he would have become physically ill just like he did in that other lifetime. He would have had to suffer through all that.
Me: Okay. I guess that’s all the time we have. Erik, is there anything else you want to tell me? Anything new in your life?
Erik (excitedly): Oh, yeah, Mom! I met Diane!
Me: Okay. Who is that? Do you mean our neighbor, Donna who died of cancer?
Erik: No, no, Mom. I mean the princess. Princess Di.
Me: Lady Diana?
Erik: Yeah, her! She’s still working with spirits, about uniting the world. I met with her, because this is something similar to what you’re doing, Mom.
Me: Oh, really?
Erik: Yeah, you’re just doing it in a different way. We talked. She’s really pretty, still.
Me (laughing): Awww! So did she come up with advice or anything?
Erik: Well, the big thing that is so impressive is that you are on the blog site every day.
Me: Uh, huh.
Erik: Cuz people are looking for help and reading every day, and they want to know that this security exists. And so if you were gonna cut back to once a week, it wouldn’t have the same feeling.
Me: Okay. I wouldn’t do that. This is good for me, too. It helps with the grief.
Erik: Believing that you’re there and that you’re human. That was the other thing that she thought was so cool about the work we’re doing. You’re so simple with it. You’re not putting yourself on a pedestal. You’re treating everybody the same, and you’re all about people, and she says that’s so important.
Me (chuckling): Yeah. Well, that’s because I am a person like the rest of ‘em! Okay, I guess that’s it. We’re out of time. I’m so glad to have met you, Jamie.
Jamie: Me too. Erik is such a blast. And now I’m going to check out your website. I was too chicken to do it before!
Me (chuckling): Okay. And Erik, I love you!
Erik: I love you more.
Me: Aww. I’ll talk to you on the 16th, then!
Erik: Perfect! I’ll be there!
Me: Okay, bye!
Bobby’s Response
Wow. And Wow.
Can’t wait to hear the rest.
No wonder I feel kind of sick around her…and no wonder I can’t cut her loose.
Thank you so much Elisa…and Erik.
