Rune came back from racing with no broken bones or bruised pride. He won the heavyweight twins category and I think maybe some others. My eyes glaze over when he talks about motorcycle or mechanical stuff because it’s way over my head! Erik would have lapped it up. In fact, I’m sure he was riding on the back of Pappa’s motorcycle more often than not. 

Tomorrow, we get ready for the trip. I hate packing, but what I hate even more is the fact that we have to drop Bella off for Annika to take care of her in College Station, TX where she’s going to school. Annika is very paranoid about anyone else taking care of Bella, thinking she’ll be snatched by a hawk or drown in our pool when Lukas or Michelle look the other way. The inconvenience of the 2 hour drive both back and forth pale in comparison to that of Annika constantly calling to check on Bella. 

Many of you enjoyed Emma’s channeling so much that you want to book a session with her. Apparently, her return emails go missing, so she asked me to give you this message:

Me: Hi, Robert!

Robert: Hi, is the light okay?

Me: Yeah. A little dark but good enough. Do people really want to see your face anyway?

Robert: Not really. I wouldn’t want to.

Me: I’m kidding; I’m kidding. I should make my face dark too just to spare people. Okay, first of all, I want to say hi to you and hi to Erik.

Robert: Hello.

Erik: Hi, Mom.

Me: Hi baby. How are you doing?

Erik: Fan-fucking-tastic.

Me: Well of course you are. Who wouldn’t be, there? So I have been feeling fat lately, so I had to start on my treadmill again, which I hate. I mean, I hate exercise. I don’t like hearing the sound of my own panting! It’s just awful.

Robert laughs.

Me: It’s true, but what makes it easier is for me to watch TV to get my mind off of it. So, I was watching Ancient Aliens, and I thought it was kind of interesting, things about the pyramids or actually about the Great Sphinx. We’ve talked about the pyramids before, but we haven’t talked much about the Sphinx.

Robert chuckles and rolls his eyes.

Me: What? What is he saying?

Robert: Oh, nothing. He’s making a crude joke.

Me: And? You can share with the class. Or can you?

Robert: When you said, “Sphinx,” he said, “Oh, sphincter.”

Robert and I laugh.

Robert: He does this kind of stuff to distract me. I’m trying to listen to you—

Me: I know!

Robert: –at the same time, and then he says something completely the opposite to what’s going on, which means if the conversation is serious, he’s going to say something not serious.

Me: Oh yeah.

Robert: It’s this imbalance, so it throws me in two places at once.

Me: Oh course it does! Hey, it’s a dirty job, channeling Erik, but somebody’s gotta do it.

Robert: Well, I guess that’s why I use that word.

Me: I guess so. So, who built the Sphinx? The Sphincter. No, who built it, Erik?

Erik: The Egyptians did.

Me: Did they have any help?

Erik: No, not from aliens, anyway.

He had said earlier that the aliens did help build the pyramids, though.

Erik: Not in that case.

Me: Okay, well they’re saying that the head of the Sphinx is kind of small compared to the body so they’re thinking it was a bigger head and they carved it down.

Archeologists say the Sphinx was carved from a solid block of sandstone unlike the pyramids which were built from stones that had to be cut and moved into place.

Me: They think it originally was the head of a dog or jackal being, Osiris. Then they eventually carved it down to look like the pharaoh of the time. His name starts with a C, but I can’t remember it. Cadre?

Erik: It was built for a pharaoh.

Me: Well, was it built as Osiris? There’s a reason I’m asking this, so I want to make sure that you’re accurate, Erik.

Robert: First he was talking about something else. He said that first they went through 4 iterations of the head, and it changed based on—well like the first one was because it was too big, too heavy, and somebody said that it would eventually break off.

Me: Okay.

Robert: And then the other three were because of—I’m trying to figure it out. He’s showing me this visual of –like it was to pay homage to different people.

Me: Oh, okay. Well, what the Ancient Alien historians say is that it was built in the Golden Age of Egypt 12,500 years ago, and it started out as a depiction of Osiris who apparently was an ancient alien. He was depicted with the head of a dog and even the body of the Sphinx, you know, it’s supposed to be that of a lion, but they looked at a lions’ bodies, and it’s just structurally not the same. It’s more like the shape of a jackal or a dog.

Robert: I was just getting ready to say that! You took the words right out of my mouth! He said it was a jackal.

Me: Oh, okay.

Erik: Because they’re agile and cunning.

Me: Was the original one a depiction of Osiris?

Erik: Right, the first one with the big head, but it was too big, and they took it off because the engineers said it wasn’t stable. Long term it would fall off.

Me: All right.

Erik: But yeah, that was the original intent. Osiris was more of a deity to them than an actual being like an alien. They worshipped things that they didn’t understand or that were different from them as gods. Anything they didn’t understand, they humbled themselves to. They put them on a pedestal as a god.

Me: What did they think Osiris was, then?

Erik: The Keeper of the Earth.

Me: Ah, okay. Can you elaborate, Erik?

Erik: He was there to keep things in balance and teach human beings that everything requires balance.

Robert: He was showing me all these visuals so I was trying to keep up with him. He does this a lot of time. I think others have said this, too, when he goes really, really fast.

Me: I know!

Robert: So anyway, he shows me this visual of the earth with human beings doing all these things, taking everything for granted so that everything gets out of balance. Humans then become threatened because of that and so does a lot of other life on the planet.

Erik: So, Osiris was about keeping everything in harmony. Sometimes that required controlling others who weren’t ready to do that. It was like having a leader that guides other people. That’s what Osiris was meant to represent. Hierarchy among humans, up to a point in their evolution, is required because it helps everyone catch up and become homogenous in a philosophy of keeping things in balance. Does that make sense?

Me: Yeah, interesting.
