Channeling Princess Diana

Me: Erik, who are you bringing through now?

Erik: Princess Di.

Me: Oh, wonderful. She’s such a beautiful spirit! Hello, Princess Diana.

Jamie: Oh, she has such a pretty voice! And her accent is much heavier than John’s (Lennon).

Me: So, Princess Diana, I guess you know what this is all about and what we’re doing here.

Princess Diana: Yes, thank you.

Me: Do you understand we’re not here to create fodder for rumors, expose secrets or exploit you in any way—that we’re just here to give you an opportunity to be heard and understood?

Princess Diana: Yes, I do understand all of that. Your sweet son, Erik did fill me in.

Me: Good. Now, can you tell me a bit about your beliefs in death and the afterlife before you died and if that changed at all afterwards?

Princess Diana: Growing up, it was very Catholic. There was a lot of history and tradition in my family.

(Pause as Jamie listens to Princess Diana)

Jamie (to Princess Diana): Oh, you were listening when we were talking to John?

Princess Diana: My beliefs were much like John’s (John Lennon). I never argued with what I was being taught.

Jamie: Her posture, the way she holds herself, she’s standing. Her hands are crossed in front of her. She’s wearing something way more casual than I would have ever expected to see her in—a very comfortable, fitted, kind of high-end long cotton shirt. It’s very pretty. It’s cream colored; it has some kind of flowers, like three dimensional gathered fabric on top, you know, on one shoulder. Then she has slender pants on—a darker greenish brown—and heels.

Princess Diana: My beliefs were pretty much what the church taught. I was very much instilled with the idea of prayer, and I took a lot of comfort in prayer as well. As I was growing up, I didn’t quite question what was around me, per se, but when my life unfolded, my role in life such as who I came to be, there was no room or time to think about my beliefs. With the power of the Royal Family, with my ability to travel, that’s when I began to question what the church was actually feeding me. I grew up very simple, really.  It was the true princess story. The idea of being rescued by a prince and living happily ever after is not how my story played out, though. Through my travels to other countries to help the poor and the sick, I recognized that spirituality was in every element of what others do. You see it in their eyes; you hear it in their native tongue, though your ears don’t understand the words. You see it in the way they walk, in the way their carry themselves, in their sense of pride.  And this made me question, “Why did I believe I was right instead of them?” So, after my divorce, I really began to expand myself. I was very happy with myself after the divorce. Deep wounds do take time to heal, but the relief that the wound was not going to get any deeper was such a pleasure, a release.

Me: And I supposed it helped to be free of the restrictive beliefs and traditions of the Royal Family.

Princess Diana: Yes, of course.

Me: Can you describe your death, your transition?

Princess Diana: Very painful.

Me: Oh, goodness.

Princess Diana: I’m not one to let go easily.

Jamie: She has this cute little smile, and she leans back as she laughs a little bit.

Princess Diana: I’m sure you know, as much as you’ve seen my life in the public eye, I may look delicate, but through the years I have learned to hold my tongue, to fight silently. And when we were in the car, we were being chased. There was much panic in the car; it was not at all comfortable. Very much on edge, very much out of control . I wasn’t behind the steering wheel; there wasn’t much I could do or take care of myself. I was at the mercy of others, really. What people will do for a story! It’s quite disgusting, really.

Me: Did anything surprise you when you crossed over?

Princess Diana: Well, I was surprised by the way it happened. You hear these wonderful stories that when you cross over there’s an endless amount of joy and peace and happiness, yet all I could feel was the separation from my boys.

Me: Aw.

Princess Diana: That was the only life I knew, and that’s when I knew why I had been on the earth—to bring them into it—to house them and nurture them and let them make the difference that I couldn’t finish. I knew this to be true once I made the transition. All through my live, I never saw myself as an old woman.

Me: So, are you saying it was your destiny to die how and when you did?

Princess Diana: Well, I don’t know that I could agree with “how,” but I will agree that it was my destiny to die young. I thought it would be a little bit later. I thought I’d be around to see my sons get married. It was never my wish to leave them.

Me: Okay. Now, why was it your destiny to die young?

Princess Diana: I believe there’s a lot of power in the bereavement process. I believe there’s a lot of power in memories. I’ll always be held in the hearts of many. If I had stayed alive, the work I would have done would have been in and out of the media. There would have been years when no one would be interested, and then there’d be a project or scandal that would pique media interest. But, since I’ve left this world, all they have to hold onto now is the memory of who I was and what I’ve accomplished. That will keep being played back over and over. Often, the memory, the bereavement for a person is much stronger than having that person stand in front of you. It’s that bereavement that will always keep me alive in peoples’ hearts.

Me: What were you here to learn and to teach?

Princess Diana: What was I here to learn? I’ll take that as personal. (She laughs a little.) Maybe it was to keep a secret! How to keep a secret! But I feel a more appropriate answer would be to learn how to be forgiving. Every turn in my life, once I became an adult, was a lesson in how to forgive.

Me: And what were you here to teach?

Princess Diana: That humanity is larger than you culture you live in.

Me: Ah! So, can you tell me how you’re doing now? What’s the afterlife like for you and what do you do there?

Princess Diana: It’s not a big golden table with a bunch of royal snobs!

We all laugh, although I feel like this could get me into trouble. Gulp.

Princess Diana: My job here is to protect and take care of my family and my dear friends. I love the work Mother Teresa does here, and so I often work with her as well. There are so many wounds that are energetically based that we, in this realm, can help heal.

Me: So you help to heal energetic wounds?

Princess Diana: Yes.

Me: Good! Oh, how wonderful. Have you gained any new insights now that you have a fresh perspective in the afterlife?

Princess Diana (laughing): I’m a much better dancer!

Me: Oh, that’s great!

Princess Diana (looking at Jamie): I have to think about that. It’s hard to measure what I knew before I died and compare it to what I know now, because when you look back on your life, death isn’t really an ending. It’s simply a moment in time. You feel quite like yourself, still, and you’re continuing to be you. For me, I don’t get a sense of a before and an after. I’m still me.  The thing that excites me so, being where I am now, is the accessibility of what I can do, where I can go, and the new abilities of not needing to go through the proper arrangements to have something done. You can act passionately, and it plays out as such instantly.

Me: Do you have any regrets?

Princess Diana: Well, I have a few verbal regrets—comments that I should not have made, but let’s not dwell on that!

Me: Oh, no, we’ll keep those private! We’re not here to pry. God knows you had to suffer enough of that while you were here on the earthly plane! So, do you plan to reincarnate?

Princess Diana: I’d very much like for that to have been my last lifetime.

Me: Would you like to share what you think your proudest accomplishment was while you were on the earth and whether that has changed since you’ve crossed over?

Princess Diana: I have so many proud accomplishments. It’s very hard for me to linger on one. The work I’ve done in other countries, the awareness I’ve brought to others about peace over war, being a mother to my two boys. And I see my accomplishments in the same light today, but I also see that I could have simply done more. Yet sometimes, just being alive was overwhelming!

Me: Oh yeah. Absolutely. Okay, any messages for humanity? Is there anything else you’d like to tell the world?

Princess Diana: Prayer and thought are powerful tools, and they’re even more powerful when done in unison with others.

Me: Oh, yes. So, Erik, do you have anything you’d like to ask her?

Jamie (laughing): Erik! God, you’re going to do this each time?

Me: Mix it up a little bit, Erik!

Jamie laughs hard.

Jamie: When I asked him if he was going to ask the whole favorite color and favorite animal thing every time, he goes, “Fine. May I have this dance?” And they just took a little twirl around the room!

Me: Aw, Erik!

Jamie: It looks like, uh, I guess I would call it a waltz. They did maybe two little turns, and she’s giggling. She’s so nice. She puts one hand over her heart when she laughs. It’s kind of sweet.

Erik: Satisfied?

Me (chuckling): Okay, fine! As long as you didn’t step on her toes! Well, thank you so much for your time and your wisdom, Lady Di, I mean, Princess Diana. Excuse me!

Princess Diana: I thank you for your time as well and wish you farewell!

Jamie: She laughed when you called her Princess Diana. She says that’s what she’s quotably known as, but her title for the last part of her life was Diana, Princess of Wales.

Me: Oh, okay!

Princess Diana (in jest): Don’t get it wrong, or the Royal Family will get very upset!

Me: Oh my. We can’t have that!

Jamie: She kind of collapses her chest a little bit while she giggles on that one!

Me: I can just see her doing that!

Jamie: She blows a kiss to you.

Me (blowing a kiss back): What a sweet and gentle woman.

Jamie: She just left. Wow, she really is that elegant. I don’t know if that just came with years of training or if she’s like that naturally.

Me: I bet it comes to her naturally. Such poise and grace.

 

***ANNOUNCEMENT ABOUT THE ATLANTA TRIP***

Since Jamie has been so incredibly busy, it’s taken her a while to put plans together so we’re looking at July (8th-10th) as the dates. Let me know if you’d be up for that. The program will include two long channeling sessions with Erik, a class on communicating with deceased, using dowsing rods, learning how to see auras, a wonderful dinner together Friday night, and much more. We’d like to get at least 20 people, but if you’d rather pick another date, please let me know! The program cost will less than $300 for all three days total. Given what we’re getting in return, I think that’s a great deal!
