Journey 114 - The Niece

11/1/04: A Journey taken to try to explain an event that occurred to a Niece of a Woman for whom I have Journeyed earlier, quite recently, to meet with her twin Sister who had gone before her in disease. The Niece, who had recently lost her Mother, was lying awake one night and saw a white mist rise from her body. She then saw a dark shape moving in her room. The Woman wanted to know what this might mean. To me, right off the cuff, I felt the Dark Being had taken a piece of the Niece’s Soul for its own use. But I wanted to Journey to get to the total Truth. After Smudging, Lighting the Sacred Candle and Rattling, and placing my Azurite Stone on my Brow Chakra for added Vision, I began my Journey. I immediately asked both my Upper and Lower World Guides to accompany me for maximum safety, for I knew we were going to deal with an Astral Entity, which can be dangerous. I found myself walking with my Guides, Owl and Snake, in their human form along a lawn toward a darkened house of several stories. Above me I could see the spinning Wheel of this Time Frame, the recorded Energies of every single event that has taken place in this reality. My Guides told me to take their hands and to not let go under any circumstances. We were suddenly standing on a set of stairs inside this house, but were not allowed to go up any further despite several attempts. So we went back out on the Lawn..and as I looked at the House I saw a bluish-white mist pouring out of the Chimney and up toward the Wheel in the Sky. Owl and Snake were suddenly back in Animal Form, and I had turned into my inner Hawk. The three of us went into this Column of Light and were suddenly zooming skyward through the Tunnel into the Upper World. We flew up to and over the Spinning Disc of Recorded Time, and as we looked down, we saw a slender sliver in the green grooves that was pulsing golden light. We went down to this section, which contained the record of the Niece’s event. We entered the sliver, and found ourselves in a golden chamber that gradually turned into a hallway as we walked through. We entered a bedroom to the left. I sensed a strong foreboding as I entered, and remembered to hold the hands of my Guides tightly. We came to rest on a tall bureau, and looked to our right at a younger Woman lying on the bed on her back. Hovering over her was an old Woman, who once she sensed our presence became a black shape with piercing red eyes. She came up to us and looked at the three of us, one at a time. My Guides told me not to fear, as she only sensed we were there, but was powerless to effect us, as we had come in from outside this Time Frame..we were only visitors. The Shape resumed its human form and went over to the bed, on the left side when viewed from the front. A window behind her was letting some light in, enough to see the scene fairly well. I saw the old Woman. Her face was full, eyes small beneath folds of skin, and her hair gray. Her Hair was pulled back, and was tied in the back, possibly in a bun..I didn’t get an excellent look in the semi-darkness. I saw her reach into the center of the Niece and pull out some Spirit Energy. I realized as she did so that she had reached down into the Niece’s soul and removed some of the Energy from one of the Niece’s former lives..not this one. The Soul stores all the Energies of all the Lives we have lived, and this elderly woman was in search of a Scene to inhabit while in the Astral Plane. We were allowed to examine the Scene, and found she had gone back to a former lifetime of the Niece that was probably set in the late 1700s, although there is a large margin of possibility here for the exact time. I saw a small cabin lit by candlelight in a wooded area, and it seemed to be from several centuries back. Apparently this is where the old Woman wanted to stay while on the Astral Plane. No doubt the inhabitants of that Cabin would have recorded strange ghost-like events occurring back then due to this visitor from the Future. It was not made clear if this was the Niece’s mother..in fact, I got the distinct impression it wasn’t..but it might well have been a different deceased relative, to know where to go looking for the information she wanted. We saw the Niece alone in her bed, the Old Woman now gone to her other Time. The three of us then left the room, the Circle of Time, and returned down the Tunnel to the Lawn we had started out from. We then crossed into an adjacent Field to sit around a Fire of Purple Flame, to Smoke a Pipe and talk. Owl took out my Pipe and handed it to me to light. I laughed and said it was amazing how it was always my Pipe he came up with. As we Smoked we considered what we had seen. We relived the Visit to make sure all the details were fresh in mind for this Journal. My Guides told me that retrieving this piece of lost Soul was not something I was quite ready to do on my own. However, they told me to take a subsequent Journey to meet with an ancient Spirit Shaman named Ooszhiwieja, or Forever Still, who would do this for me. I shall take that Journey ASAP. I then thanked my Guides and returned to the Room to the Call Back.

In this case, the lost Piece of Soul will not have an obvious effect on the Niece. What was taken was a very small part of one of her past lives, and this will not manifest itself as a major problem. However, she will now make decisions and choices ever so slightly differently, her moods and approaches a bit off-key, since part of her total Being has been disrupted. How we behave in this current life is effected by the sum total of Energies of all our past lives as well. Therefore, it is still important to attempt to retrieve this missing piece, and to release the old Woman to the Spirit Camp where she can be healed.
