Journey 148 - The Non-healing Sore

1/21/05: Spirit Sister wrote last night to inform me of a friend’s condition, and to ask me to Journey on his behalf. Her are her words: “I do, however, have permission for you to take a look at my friend, the husband in the couple I stay with down here. He's the quadriplegic that has been in bed for ages from a persistent bed sore (a type of ulcer). It will be 3 years next week that he's had it. It has gotten quite a bit better over the last year, but it just won't completely heal over. Of course his overall state is very hard. What he has is either MS or something that acts like it. His wife thinks he was poisoned by a chemical back when he was working. “

So today I took a Journey to determine what might be done for this man. I Rattled, Smudged and lit the Sacred Candle, as always. I held to my chest a printout of a picture Sister had taken of an Eagle that lives nearby down there where she is staying. If knew that would increase the amount of Energy from the man for me to read. Even as I was finishing up my Rattling, I could sense and see the Vortex spinning around me, so I knew I was already to go even before starting the Drum CD. As I was lying down to begin the Drumming, I found myself sitting at an old table in an ancient catacomb. Two Spirit Helpers were there with me..Eagle Claw and Blue Shaman. On the table before me I saw some playing cards appear. There was a King on top, a second row of three cards (1, 3, and 7) and a Joker below. In Mongolian Shamamic card reading, the distance between the King (male presence) and the Joker (the granter of all things) shows that a total physical cure for Peter is almost certainly not in the cards, so to speak. The meaning of the 1, 3 and 7 cards is not known to me..perhaps the man or the Future will reveal it. The three of us then walked over to a section of the catacomb and saw two Medieval Soldiers lying there, still in their war dress. They rose and came to sit at the table with us, still in full regalia and looking as they did centuries ago. They did not speak. I was allowed to merge with one of them and was shown the following about them by actually witnessing part of their life from their own memories..in essnce, being one of them: they were very bloodthirsty, and enjoyed killing very much. Even woman and children were fine sport for them. They eventually died of exposure to a brutal winter, but left this world without any remorse whatsoever. I learned their names, Peter and Anthony. One was a direct ancestor of today’s man.. The warriors then returned to their resting places. I went up to them with my Shaman’s Mirror (Toli), home of the Blue Shaman, and removed the centuries-old Dark Energies from their bodies. I could see the black mist drifting into the Mirror. Once that process was complete, I pressed the Mirror down onto the Ground, and Mother Earth absorbed the Energy and transmuted it. The bodies of the warriors then quickly collapsed into the dust they should have been. They had finally been cleansed.

Eagle Claw then turned into Owl and lifted me out of this scene and into a blossom-filled Apple Tree. He handed me an Apple and had me dissect it. It was hollow in the center, where the seeds were. I was told that this meant the man had an emptiness inside him, the seeds representing an unfulfilled talent. Owl then took me and we headed across the Middle World through a purple spiral horizontal Tunnel. We ended up in the correct state. I saw the man lying there. I saw the Sore (or metaphorical rendition thereof) towards the back of his upper right leg. I moved to investigate his Sore, and saw a long, ancient, and crusty Spiritual Medieval Spear sticking out of his leg. This was something that had come down through the ages, as an attachment. Perhaps (my surmising here) it was the cause of his paralysis. I dissolved this Spear using my Toli by pushing slowly into along its length. I then released this Energy to her Earth. Sitting in a chair next to the bed was a part of the man’s soul. Looking like a fully-functioning man, he was obviously quite bored and disengaged..like he’d been there for years. When I removed the Spear, he slowly climbed back into Peter’s body and reassumed his place in the man’s Spiritual house. A woman Spirit then appeared. This was his Guardian. She spoke to me, and told me what I had done was essentially all I could do for this man. She told me then that when he was a young boy, the man really loved Horses. She said he should paint or write about them now (is this unreleased seed mentioned above?). I realized after the Journey that with his lack of ability to move, this would be quite difficult for him. However, modern technology now has voice and eye-motion recognition software that he could use to begin such a career. I then asked her about finding his Power Animal, and she looked at me and smiled the smile of one who is patient with careless thought. I then realized, of course! Horse IS his PA! Duuu-uhhh. Anyway, I was then allowed to ride his Horse, and we toured his body together. We strengthened and cleansed his Spirit Body. His Aura was totally restored. I then was taken to a future scene. The man was lying in a hospital-like setting, hooked to an IV. I was shown that he will depart this Life from here. But I saw his released Spirit, all young and vibrant, jumping for joy. He was so thrilled to have lived life in his crippled body, he said, for he had experienced love and caring from his wife and others beyond anything he would have had if living physically whole. He had succeeded in his Spiritual Mission for this life, and was full of the enthusiasm one sees from someone who has just emerged from a first dive into a cool pool on a sweltering day. He said the experience was “great!” The imagery then ceased, and I thanked my Helpers and advanced the CD to the Call Back.

1/28 follow-on: Here is the answer I got back concerning the Man from Spirit Sister:

"He has been talking about his horses. He was on a horse pretty much as soon as he could sit up...being raised on a cattle farm near the everglades. Some traumatic times there, too, since he had a cruel father who gave away his horse."

To which I replied: "I was very happy to hear that the Horse was indeed a pivotal player in his youth. This would explain the Soul Piece sitting next to him in the Room where I saw him and his Guardian. That must have left him when his father gave away his Horse. This would of course have contributed to his physical ailments. That soul Piece has been re-united with him, though, so he should be feeling both the intensities of the anger he felt when young, but also have the ability to now release it..to forgive."
