The medium was seated in the closed cabinet in blackout conditions for the first half of the seance before, upon spirit invitation, the red lighting was set and the cabinet opened.
Witnesses: Chris. Pat. Lynne. Margaret.
During the blackout period no sounds were heard from within the cabinet area. Sitters were happy to sit and singalong to the CD being played. The energy within the lodge if always a pleasure to be enjoyed.
When the cabinet curtains were opened the medium was seen to be laid back in an unusual (for him) position. He appeared to be physically under spirit control...rather than simply experiencing an altered state of consciousness. During this part of the seance it appeared that his head was supported by 'others' and flopped around upon his shoulders whenever a spirit visitor withdrew.
The transfiguration phenomena displayed was strong, perhaps stronger than previously witnessed. A couple of the faces were almost alarmingly clear in their presentation...the strength of the accompanying personality becoming felt (even by Chris who is about as sensitive as a brick).
At the end of the evening a face became presented towards Chris that was so powerful that she forgot to breathe! The skin appearence was smooth...rather like the Alien posters...with deepset eyes and mouth. The face seemed to 'connect' with Chris and she found herself saying "Heck..I've never seen you look like THAT before!" ...referring to the spirit person (not to be medium).
Frankly...it's the following day now and I remain puzzled by this experience. At the time, I felt that I was recognising the face, but that he had never shown himself 'like that' before. But the fact is...I didn't and still don't know who it was! Ok...maybe it's my spirit guide FC...I admit that this crossed my mind...but at the same time...I am not sure. I asked FC if it was him at the time and did not receive confirmation. I have spoken to FC this morning and asked again, without receiving a response. I can't see why he wouldn't say 'it's me' if that had been the case. I remain baffled. But then...he's a joker and it'd be 'just like him' to leave me 'chomping at the bit'. To a very great extent the Circle was founded upon the strength of my curiosity...and FC knows exactly how to inspire and hold my focus of interest! Chris
All too soon the evening drew to a close. We are already looking forward to the next sitting!
NOTE: Due to a holiday period the Spirit Chamber circle will now be taking a three week break.
