3/31/05: A Journey to see if a new job prospect for my wife will work out for her. I prepared in the usual way, and set off with a 10-minute Drum Loop. As I entered the Middle World (somehow I knew this would be a Middle World Journey), I found myself lying face down on a steep hill of wet mud, clawing my way slowly up to the ridge. Owl came out of the nearby woods, and landed close to where I was climbing to. When I reached the top, Owl was at my left side, and a short distance away I saw four Native Elders gathered around a Fire across a grassy divide. They were Smoking the Pipe, and seemed to be considering an issue..no doubt my wife’s issue. One even looked over at me and turned back, and they all nodded. Suddenly, a large column of golden Light shot down from above and encircled the Elders. They dissolved into the Light, and the colors representing what they were streamed upward into the column, in a circle. Owl and I then walked over. Owl shape-shifted into Eagle Claw, my Upper World Guide. I told him I wished to see what the prospects for this new job were, and he pointed to the Column and in we went. We quickly zoomed up the Tunnel and were soon in the Upper World. We stood on top of the Clouds, which were numerous and white and cotton-ball-like. The sky was still a light Blue above us. I saw a Blue Heron fly by fairly closely, and then numerous other Winged Ones flying along at various distances. They were all flying exactly parallel to the Cloud tops. I then looked to my left, and saw a stairwell forming in the Cloud near me. It looked like a staircase one would see coming down from a rooftop. We went down into the Office where my wife works. It was dark. We went over to her desk. On it, lying sideways, was a set of dead Roses, with a Valentines Card from me. We then moved on into the place where personnel records are kept. Eagle Claw opened the drawer where my wife’s records are, and implied there was something damaging about her in there. We then went up the stairs leading to the lobby. I saw my wife over at the desk by the door, in her new job. She seemed quite happy and busy. She seemed to be well-liked by customers and her boss and some of his associates. But then we pulled back. I suddenly realized that she was lonely. There was no-one there to talk to, no radio to listen to. She seemed to be less happy, looking a bit like she regretted being there. We pulled back even further, and were above a less friendly and more aggressive supervisor's office. She seemed to be glaring out at my wife, plotting her demise. Eagle Claw told me that my wife should be very careful in whom she is competing against. If she beats out a person another supervisor wanted in there, the latter will actively work to hurt her. I then saw my wife being shipped off either to other offices in other towns, since her job in records had been filled. I then saw her back downstairs in the well-lit office, happy. I was told that by working her 6-7 hours overtime, my wife actually makes the same salary she would get if she went to the new, slightly higher-paying job upstairs. We left her workplace and went back to the Cloud Tops. A short distance ahead I saw a large and unusually beautiful Tree. It had large branches widely spaced, and its canopy was a mix of green, yellow-orange and red-orange. Eagle Claw and I climbed up the trunk a bit and came to a large knothole, where a glass mirror formed. In the mirror I saw the face of my wife with her beautiful smile. That faded, and then I saw some of the VPs of the office all gathered around for a group shot..and they were all wearing scowls. We left the Tree, went back to the Clouds, and dropped down through the Tunnel back to the grassy field. I thanked all the Spirits and faded out of this Journey.
Notes: This Journey implies obviously that the new job is fraught with possible bad outcomes for my wife. All she gets in return is slightly more money, lack of friendly contact, and people with more power than her plotting against her..and a possible long ride to a new location. The VPs obviously do not hold her in really high regard, given their surly faces at the end, implying they would not go to bat for her.
The dead flowers seem to suggest the death of a happy time when she would show these flowers around to her friends. In fact, last Valentine’s Day she was the only one to get them at work.
The fact 4 Elders considered her request before zooming up the Tunnel shows she is held in high regard by the Spirit Elders..she should trust her instincts, for they will be informed by these Guardians.
The Birds all flying horizontal to the Cloud Tops suggests the need to remain level-headed. Blue Heron leading the way implies the Great Spirit was also involved in painting this Journey.
Journey 2: 3/31/05: Journey 2 today was a short one, to meet with the Spirit of my little Moqui Stone that sits on my indoor Altar with my Pipe, Mirror, etc. Sacred Space was already open, and so off I went. I took the “Little Mo” and placed it on my Mirror as I lay on my back. I was suddenly lying on my back in the midst of a forest of very tall Trees, like Redwoods. I went very quickly through a day-night-day sequence. I was lying there again, and suddenly I saw an Orange Blob approaching me through the Tree Trunks. It seemed to have emerged from the Trees, and I knew it was an older Nature Spirit. As the blob came right up to me, I could see an elderly face outlined within the top portion. It looked a bit Native American, but also a bit Mongolian. It spoke to me and mouthed the word “grandson.” He then handed my little Moqui Stone to me, his right hand to my left. I got the insight that he is an old Shaman Spirit. I then realized that he was my ACTUAL Shaman grandfather in a prior life! I really AM his grandson. He then dissolved into the Moqui, and I saw him living in there in his hut, puttering around with his Pipe, and very content. I then found myself turning into an orange blob. I was floating in the Void..it has been a while since this happened. I knew I was suspended beyond Time and Space. In fact, I saw little scenes from “reality” forming in a wisp and then disappearing again..merely hints and suggestions of the World we live in. Grandfather then told me that he would serve as the coordinator for all my Shamans tools and Stones and Feathers sitting on my Altar. He would be the Head Shaman to offer the most Spirit power to them. Utawa, my Shaman Mirror Spirit, was thrilled to have a companion to keep him company when I am not using the tools. I am also thrilled to have my actual Shaman Grandfather helping me. That is a real WOW!
