Channeling Transcript
Me: When our soul group was in the “between lives” phase just before this life, Erik, what did we want to accomplish? How were we to help each other? What were our individual and collective destinies? I know what your destiny was, but what other key elements were involved in creating that spiritual blueprint for the group?
Erik: Well, it wasn’t just between the two of us, Mom. It had to be the whole family or nothing, because even though you were the one who “let me in”—
Jamie (laughing): He’s showing me this image of opening the gates, like “come on in here!”
Me (laughing): That’s funny!
Erik: As a family, we all work together, even if that “together” is a push and a pull sometimes. It has to happen in unison for it to occur.
Me: Yeah, yeah.
Erik: I knew that I was coming into a family that would support me—
Jamie: He puts his hands out—
Erik:—Losing my marbles!
Me (with sadness): Awwww. Yeah.
Erik: I couldn’t go into a family that wouldn’t support it, because then my work wouldn’t have been achieved. In our family, I was accepted for who I was. I needed that from a family unit so that I could complete that, um, not be the perfect person and still be loved. So often, people come in, they’re not what they consider “perfect,” and they feel the pain from other people rejecting them, judging them—constant rejection.
Me (tearfully): Yeah, I know, Baby. I wish I could have protected you from all the pain people outside of the family caused you.
Erik: And it’s hard to get back on your feet with that. But with us, in our family, you taught us, Pappa taught us, that we all hold hands through anything.
Me: Yes, always. Always.
Erik: You know, that’s part of why people need a belief or a faith.
Me: Um hm, exactly.
Erik: I don’t care if people say they’re atheists, that is still a belief.
Me: Oh, yeah. Sure.
Erik: They believe. They think they’re being all witty and getting around it, but in that system of believing—even if that belief is that there is no Higher Power—you find community. We’re not meant to be on our own.
Me: No, we’re all connected.
(Long pause)
Me: Okay, now what are you trying to say with the goosebumps, Erik? I never had these intense localized goosebumps until after you died. What’s the message you’re trying to send? “Yes go with it,” or “No don’t think or do that?”
Erik: Uh uh. I’m saying, “Yes. Yes, go with it.”
Me: Okay, glad to get that cleared up.
Erik: I’m making you stop and realize that this is where you need to be.
Me: Okay.
Erik: That’s what more people need: to stop and totally be aware of where the hell they are in life. So many people say yes and go forward, and it’s total shit. They need to stop and get centered before leaping forward.
Me: Oh, yeah! But I do get the feeling that you are telling me, “Yep, go for it,” or “Yes, you’re right.” Sort of an affirmation. That’s what it feels like to me.
Erik: Exactly.
I think you’ll all find the next few entries fascinating in that they deal with complex and controversial subjects. Tomorrow, we’ll scratch the surface on religion, then Wednesday, we’ll delve head first into the mind-bending subject of Time.
And now, I’d also like to share a bit about Jamie today, so I’ve attached her brag sheet and qualifications below! Please get to know her and her long lists of talents and accolades. She truly is a gem.
Jamie Butler
I have retained the ability to see and hear spirits (clairvoyance and clairaudience, respectively) since birth. From the age of eighteen I have given readings publicly. I also am able to see energetic fields (what some people term “auras”), and I have the skill to channel spirit, where a spirit relays messages by borrowing my voice and body during a reading.
Now thirty-five, I have built a client base solely by personal referrals, working with people in over forty states across the U.S. and internationally in fifteen countries. I have been a guest speaker at the University of Florida, a frequent presenter for several spiritual groups in Georgia and Florida, and I have been a guest on Atlanta radio: Steve and Vicki in the Morning, and television: Peachtree in the Morning.
