Journey 162 - My Son's Friend's Shoulder

3/7/05: A Journey to see if there is anything I can do to help my son’s friend, who has re-injured his right shoulder, weakened by a bad injury and subsequent operation was he was a teen. After the usual preparations, I lay down with the Drum CD poised and ready. I briefly saw Owl flutter down toward me from a deep Forest, and then found myself sitting once again on the surface of my Shaman’s Mirror. I then spotted hospital operating room a short distance before me. However, as I began to move toward it, the Blue Shaman (Spirit of my Mirror) Utawa and Pink Swan (my newest Journey Guide) both appeared, standing side by side, intending to block my entry. Apparently there is nothing to be done Shamanically to fix the shoulder outright. I then looked to my right and saw a small Fire burning. It was green in color. I went to sit by it, and my two Guides sat down with me. We Smoked a Sacred Pipe. I soon asked if perhaps I could try to find some extra money for his friend so he could afford an operation. The Helpers then handed me the Spiritual equivalent of my Hollow Bone. I looked inside and saw the operating room once again. I took some Sage and Sweet Grass, lit each, and blew the Smoke into the Room. The entire room then began to sparkle with Rainbow Colors. This told me that during any coming operation, the friend would have the protection of the Spirit World over him. I then asked once more if there were any way to generate some additional funds for him. The Helpers sent me skyward, and there I found a Spirit who I sensed was the Spirit of Numbers. His clothing was covered with many types of Numbers, some symbols I of course recognized, but the vast majority in writing and styles I knew nothing of..no doubt from other dimensions and times. I asked this Spirit to have pity on me and the person for whom I was interceding to find a source of money. He then suggested to me that the friend should play the following number sequence in a pick-4 lottery through and especially on April 15: 7 X X 1 (numbers withheld to enure a win for the friend..I'm sure you understand). I didn’t get the sense this was a sure winner, but that it was quite likely. I thanked the Spirit of Numbers and returned to the Fire. I then allowed both Helpers to merge with me so they could once again experience Life in a Human Body. They both enjoyed it very much. Pink Swan moved to increase my seeing strength with my Visual Cortex while present within me. I could see the Blue Shaman Utawa in his entirety. Once the Mergings were done, I left the Mirror and was standing before the Forest once again. Both Owl and Snake, my traditional Journey Guides, were there. After approving of my Work with my new Guides, each took turns in the unusual step of spitting on me, moves designed to vastly increase my Spirit Strength (or Windhorse as the Mongolian Shaman tradition refers to it). I rubbed the Sacred Water all over my Body, thanked all the Guides, and returned to my room.

Note: The color green is very powerful as a Healing agent. It balances energies and increase compassion. It calms inflamed areas of the body. It soothes the nervous system. It makes one friendlier, more hopeful, more peaceful. It strongly affects the Heart Chakra.

It was interesting to see so much interest paid to me afterward. Perhaps the Helpers are stealing me for an upcoming Spiritual challenge.
