May 2012 saw the first sitting of a new mediumship development circle in Eastbourne, East Sussex.

We sit in Liz's fully blacked-out converted garage. I sit as the medium with Liz as sitter and we are sometimes joined by other guest sitters.

We treat each sitting as an experiment with no expectations from us and ask our Spirit Team to work with us in the most efficient way to produce evidential mediumship to help us understand ourselves and the bigger picture.

Each sitting is recorded, I transcribe the recording verbatim and include in the final report of the transcript any additional unrecorded experiences that Liz and myself remembered from the sitting.

I publish these reports to give people the opportunity to read or listen to the communications and hopefully increase their own understandings.

I welcome any comments or questions and my contact email is nickp7871@gmail.com

It's up to the reader to make up their own mind as to the source of the communications and phenomena reported and hopefully be inspired to set up a development circle to get their own experiences...

Double Cabinet Christmas Seance 23/12/2012

We had our Christmas Seance on Sunday 23/12/2012 with both the Mercury Light and Mercury Star Circles together. Both Syann and myself sat in cabinets each end of the room!!!


Just after 5.00pm we all met at the ‘Garage’ for the start of our Christmas Séance.

I’d got there an hour earlier with our old cabinet and the green chair and got the room set up with a cabinet each end of the room.

We’d had some advice from Chris Di Nucci’s spirit friend ‘FC’ who’d suggested we have the glass dome in the centre of the room and that both mediums sit in the same conditions. I don’t use arm restraints so we didn’t use them this time on Syann.

I put out both trumpets placing them in front of each cabinet and I put the glass dome on it’s table in the centre with a few toys on the floor below it.
I had a feeling Syann would make a few changes when she arrived and sure enough she wanted the glass dome at ground level…



Syann used the usual cabinet in it's usual place...


...and up the far end of the room I used our old cabinet which I'd dusted off and repaired for the evening


I'd decorated the trumpets and placed the glass dome in the centre of the circle on it's table...


...Syann preferred it at floor level


Offerings to the gods and the card that 'found' Syann in Brighton... just like that!!!

As we all made our way from upstairs down to the garage we noticed a white feather on the carpet outside the entrance to the garage. It’s possible someone had brought it in on their shoe but none of us had noticed it earlier and it certainly got our attention.

Syann and I both sat with the cabinets closed and FC further advised that once the opening prayer had been said we sit in silence with the red light on for about one minute while the energies settle then put on the music and turn out the light.

Syann sat in the usual cabinet with Tasha to her right, followed by Liz, me directly opposite in the old cabinet and Travis on the other side of the room to Syann’s left.

Travis had been promoted to circle leader for the night and was also in charge of the red light and music which included a few extra Christmas songs. Liz had control of the other red light and the closing music.

Travis opened in prayer at 5.45pm.
After the one minute settling down period he activated Syann’s mp3 player. Not the easiest of tasks as it’s so small and ‘Little One’ came through Syann to ask if he was managing alright just as he hit the right button and the music began… phew.
Then Travis turned out the red light.

After about five minutes a few noises came from my cabinet.
It sounded a bit like ‘Little One’ at first then the familiar ‘All here… all in room’
Followed by… ‘Both teams in room’


Tasha drifted off into trance and continued to drift in and out of it throughout the evening.
When Tasha came back she commented on how light the room now looked.
She was starting to get cold round the legs and felt she had been given some healing while in trance. She said she now felt great.

Liz could sense something to her right, between her and my cabinet.
She was seeing blobby shapes around the room and Travis was seeing blue.

Tasha now thought the room looked darker.
A few minutes later she drifted off into trance again.

Liz saw a spark of light near Travis, then a clear flash to the left of him.
She started to see lots of lights flashing around the room making her dizzy.
Travis was seeing a lot of blue in the room.
Liz also saw blue but only in the area of Syann’s cabinet.

Then Liz began to see green and yellow energy in the room.
Travis confirmed seeing green but not yellow.
Liz saw the green/yellow energy build up as an arch across the room linking both cabinets.
She later told me it had reminded her of an angular arch bridge which tied up with something a communicator mentioned later in the sitting.

Tasha came back and she was very cold.
Liz was now seeing blobby shapes moving around the room and saw a flash at ground level near Travis.
Tasha felt a vibration under her foot.

A few voice noises started from my cabinet.
The voice was quiet. It appeared to be Tob (from the Mercury Circle) sounding like him at first then morphing into different voices.
Tasha drifted off again.

‘Is Tob… is Tob… eh Tob…’

Travis… ‘Hello Tob, how are you?’

‘Good, good, good… eh good, I good… good to be through this way and work again, work, work, work… We work on voice, we work on communication. So far we have now come through this way, it will be perfected. The voice. For we have all our different personalities to come through but it will take a time for each to… to bring each of ourselves through in a different way. So for now we are able to speak like this in a more general way for we can get close to the energy of the link’

Travis… ‘Is that both links or one link?’

‘An interesting question... Each link has own energy surrounding the vessel… also a joined energy which we are able to utilize. Each link can connect. This way we are able to use both energies simultaneously. This is of a great benefit for us at this time. It help both teams to… each team can take a piece of the energy from other team to produce more voice and phenomena so we work together in this way’

Liz… ‘Is this the best way of working, with two cabinets?’

‘It is another way to work, not the best way, all work is of benefit however you sit. We have own circle for each team which will develop in it’s own way but a combined work… a combined communication opportunity as this, will also benefit each team so there is no preferred way to sit. Each time we do sit we make the most of the opportunity to come forward in this way’

Travis… ‘Understood’

‘Did you see the bridge between each link form?’

Liz… ‘Is that what it was? I saw like a bridge. It was yellowish and green’

‘Some of you would be able to perceive the energy between the two. It’s what we use. We have been building the bridge for a long time…’


Tasha came back saying she’d just seen a Napoleon era soldier in a dark uniform with a white front standing with his hand resting on my cabinet!!!

Liz felt footsteps on the floor and also felt like someone was pushing her chair from behind.

A communication started from Syann’s cabinet.
The voice sounded muffled and slurred.
Liz thought the voice was coming from a different location.
Then ‘Little One’ came through…

‘Hello… hello everybody’

Tasha… ‘You’re here!!! I didn’t think you were coming’

‘We’re all here’

Liz… ‘Is it difficult using the voice-box this evening?’

‘In some ways yes… We’ve been building it up’

Tasha… ‘Is that because there’s two vessels in cabinets? Because they’ve got different energies?’

‘Yes and no’

Liz… ‘Well you’re doing well, we can hear you’

‘We’ll try again in a minute, we’ve been working on other things’

Liz… ‘What things have they been working on?’

‘Phenomena’

Tasha… ‘I want a cuddle before you go tonight’

‘I’ll try… I think they’re gonna have the light on soon… Travis’

Travis… ‘Hello, yes’

'You've got the light haven’t you?’

Travis… ‘I’m in charge of the light, the lot’

‘You’re very important tonight aren’t you, ha, ha, ha’

Travis… ‘That’s a change’

Liz… ‘Don’t let it go to his head’

‘Can you put the light on after this song please, just for one song’

Travis… ‘I will indeed’


When the tune ended Travis was struggling to find the red light switch. Liz offered to put the other red light on but Travis then found the switch just in time.

Clyde asked for the red light to be left on for the next tune which was the last of the evening.

Liz saw a line of light like string flash on and off in front of Syann’s cabinet.

As the last tune ended Clyde came through…

‘Good evening friends… Christmas greetings to you all my friends. We are to have a few weeks rest now I believe. We look forward to meeting again in your new year after you are rested and well. All the spirit teams extend their thanks to you all’

Travis… ‘Thank you very much. We thank them all and you for your help’

‘We’ve all worked hard this last year, donating energy, our travelling, our time and the giving of our love to these special meetings. All actions are noted and appreciated more than our world can express my friends. We will leave our friend’s team to close with a few words… and Travis we will ask you to close when they have finished… good evening friends’

All… ‘Good evening Clyde. Love to you all. Happy Christmas’

Attention switched to the other end of the room as a communicator took control of me. Again it sounded like Tob beginning the communication before the voice changed...

‘Eh Tob… eh… Thank you Clyde for kind words… ah, good evening. We appreciate all your efforts… We look forward to joining and mingling with you again soon. This time is a beneficial time for your world. The children of your world in anticipation of the day create a loving atmosphere which they send out into your world which we can use to help those who are not so fortunate, so happy, for there is also sadness in your world which we are well aware and can direct the happiness of the children to that, to ease their sadness. So enjoy your weeks of holiday. Come back refreshed for another year of communication, of phenomena, of sharing the two worlds together… bless you my friends’

All... 'Thank you'


Travis did the closing prayer then Liz put on the closing tunes.

I came back quite quickly and Syann returned soon after.

Syann felt she’d come back a couple of times during the evening. She remembered hearing some of our singing and had experienced some phenomena in the cabinet.
Something had been poking the side of her foot. She’d felt a hand over the back of her hand and felt something over her face.
She had felt movement coming out of her mouth brushing against her lip.
Clicks were heard to her right in the cabinet and she’d had conscious lucid dreams like she was in a removed space but had no idea how long they’d lasted.

The closing music was having the opposite effect on Tasha as she was drifting off and fighting to stay with it. We turned it off before we lost her!!!

For me it had been an interesting experiment. I felt I’d been aware throughout. At times it was as if the spirit control of me was stronger while at other times I felt much more aware. I’m not sure if this was because the teams were shifting their attention from one medium to the other throughout the evening.
My hands and arms were moving about and at one point it felt like the back of my hand was touched by something.
It was nice to have Tob communicate through me. He has done it once before when I sat with Dan in Polegate. Travis has spoken to Tob many times through Joan and afterwards he thought it was Tob talking throughout my communications despite the voice changes. I felt it was Tob initially then other communicators taking over but it is very difficult to tell for sure at this stage and at the end of the day ‘who’ does the communicating is not as important as what is said. With time and development all will eventually become clear I’m sure.

Once we were all back down to earth and had a cup of tea we headed out into Eastbourne town centre for an excellent Indian meal.
If you’re ever looking for a good Indian restaurant in Eastbourne we can all now recommend this place…





*******happy new year*******



30th Sitting 18/12/2012


This week we sat on Tuesday as Dan was unable to make Monday and it gave Liz an extra day to get over her cold.

This was the 30th sitting for the Mercury Light Circle.

Liz opened at 8.30pm and put the music on while Dan put out the red light.

After ten minutes Liz told Dan she could see a small amount of light getting in at the edge of the curtain round the door frame.
Dan couldn’t see it as he was looking from a different angle.

I was aware of the conversation and felt concerned about the light getting in and was unable to get it out of my mind. I wanted to tell Liz to get up and move the curtain. Then a communicator took control saying more or less what I wanted to say.
It’s difficult for me to know if it’s me speaking or the communicator or a mixture of both? Possibly I started the communication which was taken over by the communicator?...

‘I do believe… is light coming in through curtain to you?’

Liz… ‘Yes’

‘Do you… are you able to adjust the curtain?’

Liz… ‘I can try’

‘Slow… slow movement towards curtain and see if you can adjust for you… be careful how you walk’

Liz… ‘Yeh, that’s good, that’s it thanks, that’s made a difference, that’s better’

‘Cannot… can you not see now the light come through’

Liz… ‘Yeh that’s better, that’s good, that’s blocked it now’

‘Because we do not want you distracted from our own light that we can produce for you’

Liz… ‘Yeh it was distracting, I thought I could see other lights but I couldn’t be sure that it wasn’t just… There’s a very feint light from the trumpet in the middle’

‘This is normal yes?’

Liz… ‘Yeh, okay that’s good… shall I turn the music up?’

‘Please put music up and increase energies once more thank you’


We hadn’t charged up the luminosity on the trumpet this week.
Liz could see it glowing lighter then darker intermittently.
Dan couldn’t see the luminosity at all.

Nothing else was reported by Liz or Dan in the room for the next 40 minutes.

It seemed to be all happening in the cabinet this week as my arms were being moved about most of the time and I was quietly mumbling away and could feel my face being manipulated.

I was aware of a bright light behind me that seemed to work it’s way round my sides becoming very bright in front of my closed eyes.
I’ve noticed this before when sitting in the Mercury Star Circle but this was more intense.

Then while two American Indian type tunes were playing I was aware of a very strong presence with me. It caused me to sit forwards and all the muscles in my body tensed up. I began to shake as a loud voice came from me almost knocking me off my seat! The strong sensation of the voice coming up and out of my mouth was no different to the sensation of being violently sick. It was a mixture of words and noises coming out, mainly incoherent.

Dan and Liz asked the communicator to be steady and take it easy.
Liz also felt a degree of control from an entity as the tunes were playing.

While the communicator was coming through me both Liz and Dan noticed a lot of light in front of the cabinet near the trumpet. Liz described it as like a flame from a fire and it actually made her feel hot while Dan said he remained ambient.

When the communicator withdrew they both noticed the room return to being dark.


A few minutes later it looked misty to Liz and Dan.
Liz was aware of a kind of distortion in the atmosphere between her and Dan.

Just before the last two tunes played a communicator came through…

‘I say thank you, you both, for continued attendance each week. We thank you for your energy and love. We appreciate the time that you spend with us. We look forward to continue development in your new year for we appreciate the time now come for you to have a holiday, a break, for your festival of light that you will celebrate with your family and we look forward to come back with you in new year…’

Liz and Dan… ‘You’re very welcome, we look forward to meeting up again…’


Liz then asked the Spirit Team to start drawing back as the last two tunes were playing.

I came slowly back, not feeling totally with it until the end of Liz’s closing prayer.
It looked white and misty in the cabinet.
Dan and Liz said it was dark in the room.
All three of us were now very cold.

Liz had the impression of a lady between her and Dan. She looked Victorian with her hair coiled around her head. Liz said she looked very happy and gave the name Catherine…

The following day while talking over the séance with Syann she said her gut feeling was that the light I saw come from behind me was one of my ‘guides’ moving in close and the reason why I see it in the MSC because they are working with me there as well.
She also received a ‘thought ball’ that for our next MLC sitting we need to set the red light low, rather than black out.
I too have been thinking about using red light but wasn’t sure if directions would be possible from the cabinet to Liz about when to turn it on or off. This week we did have directions to sort out the light coming through the curtain and turn up the music so I guess that answers my question…

Next sitting for the MLC will be in three weeks on Monday 7th January but before that we have a special Christmas séance on Sunday 23rd December with both Syann and me in our own cabinets each end of the room!

I guess it will be a Mercury Star Light Circle… should be interesting!

29th Sitting 10/12/2012


Dan was back with us this week and sat with Liz at the far end of the room.
The extra chairs were left in the room and as usual the MLC trumpet was placed about four feet in front of the closed cabinet.

Liz gave the opening prayer at 8.30pm, turned out the red light and put the music on.

After about ten minutes there were a few noises from the cabinet.

‘Hello, hello, how are you… all in room… we are here all here…’


Liz reported seeing areas of white blobbiness on the floor either side of the trumpet.
She also saw forms moving around in the room.

Dan could sense a light behind him.
Both could see flickering patches around the room and they were both feeling cold.

Liz saw blue streaks in the middle of the room.
Then she had a static electricity feeling in her hair to the left.

They were both feeling colder.
Dan saw shafts of light.
Liz could see blobs of light and they both commented that a lot of visual phenomena was happening in the room.

Then they both said it had suddenly got darker.
Liz had a strange sensation of a bridge going from one side of the room to the other.

About 50 minutes after the first few noises in the cabinet had finished a quiet voice was heard.
It wasn’t coherent at first then a few words were spoken…

‘Time is of your side, a necessary ingredient for you… you are constantly with time, all time, you need your time to put a perspective on your life. You need time to gauge one event to another, each time continues in your life, as you grow older time continues. It has the illusion that you are getting older yet time does not exist for us. We do not need time, we have no need for time. We see how it works for you and you will see for yourself how each piece of time follows each proceeding piece. It is a necessary part of your experience. In your life now you cannot perceive a life without time, it is necessary for you…’

Another communicator came through…

‘Edith… Edith here, yes’

Liz… ‘Do we know you Edith?’

‘I have always been here but I don’t think I have spoken in this way… in quite this way before’

Liz/Dan… ‘Welcome’

Another communicator… ‘Can you hear me?’

Liz/Dan… ‘Yes we can hear you’

‘Ah, good I do hope I can be heard’

The communicator then faded out.


As the second to last tune played Liz reminded the spirit team that it was time to start drawing back.

I felt fully back as the last tune ended.
Dan also felt fine and hadn’t ‘gone off’ this week.

After checking we were both okay Liz did the closing prayer.

I didn’t feel that I had dropped into trance this week but remembered nearly going off a couple of times then coming back with a jump.
I could also recall ‘seeing’ a box of files and papers?

It didn’t seem to me like 50 minutes between the two communications.

A lot of what was said at the end I heard before it was said and when it was being said though me I had the feeling it was just mixed up words coming out and was surprised that it kind of made sense when I heard the recording.

Also while listening to the recording I thought Edith had spoken some time ago but after a quick check through the archives I found it was Enid who had spoken before...
  

28th Sitting 03/12/2012


It was just Liz and me this week.

We normally take all the unused seats out of the room but Liz felt it would be better to leave some in as she somehow felt she’d feel a little less ‘on her own’ that way.
I could see no reason why not so we did and if any of our spirit friends wished to use them they were more than welcome!!!

Liz opened with a prayer at 8.30pm and I was feeling quite light headed as she said it.

Five minutes later there were noises from the cabinet and the familiar… ‘All in here’ and ‘all in the room’ …etc.


For the next hour there was no noise at all from the cabinet apart from the odd cough.

Liz had a strong impression of a white wolf.

Liz then began to get quite a light show.
She reported seeing swirling lights making a marble effect in the room.
She saw torch lights swirling towards the ceiling and said some of them almost dazzled her.
There was a blue ball of light that appeared for a while to the right of the trumpet.
Then a build-up of light in the centre of the room.

Liz saw a few blobby shapes moving around and had a strong feeling of someone to her left.
She became very cold.

The room went very light and misty and she felt there were a lot of people near her. She felt some of them were healers.
Her vision became distorted.

Meanwhile in the cabinet I was drifting in and out of consciousness.
Some things I remember well but I’m sure there were other things happening which I can’t recall.
It almost felt like I was going to sleep but different. I wasn’t at all tired before or after the sitting. There were times when it felt like my body was asleep but my mind still aware. I remained still most of the time whereas usually my arms are moving around.

I was aware of having various experiences or dreams; three of which I remembered well.
They all took place out of the cabinet but still in the room.

The first was just outside the cabinet and my awareness was at ground level next to the trumpet which stands about four feet in front of the cabinet. I perceived the trumpet lying down but don’t remember seeing it fall over.

Next I was near the wall to my left and I noticed what looked to me to be a long row of windows along the top of the wall near the ceiling. Some of the windows were open and remember feeling concerned about this but someone who was with me assured me it was okay. It could well be that what I saw wasn’t windows at all, maybe some sort of portal but because it was something beyond my understanding I saw it as windows.

Then I was in the centre of the room and I saw two people sitting at a table talking to each other. I had the feeling there were more people than that but only saw two. They didn’t take any notice of me being there. It was a very dusty atmosphere and reminded me of a bar in a Western movie.

In all these experiences I was still aware that I was in a séance and knew I was sitting in the cabinet while my awareness was in the room. I didn’t see Liz and didn’t seem to be in the ‘here and now’ as everything I perceived was different to what was physically in the room at the time.
I don’t remember coming out or going back into the cabinet as my memory of each experience started and finished in the room.

At other times my awareness was back in the cabinet and there were also a few ‘blank’ periods.

Just before the last two tunes played there was a communication from the cabinet…

‘Hello, all is well, we worked well today, worked on link, worked on bringing him down. We bring him down and a good result was achieved this evening with boy for he held on to a lower conscious state for a time. He was held for a time in a conscious state, a lower conscious state. He was able to experience part of what we see in the room for he was brought out of cabinet. Piece of consciousness, part of his consciousness was brought out into the room. It enabled him to experience a different perspective on what happens in your room. He saw some subjects which were laid out in front of him for he was able to experience these in a similar way to how we are able to experience your room.
We thank you for your constant patience in coming each week for we hope you have experienced some phenomena tonight. We hope to come more close in future and bring our voices to you to talk about the experiences that we are able to relate to you in this way.
Time now I believe to withdraw slowly but I thank you again for your presence in the room tonight’

Liz… ‘Thank you, I hope it was helpful’

‘Ah yes it always is helpful to us. We look forward to many more opportunities to come close and work with you all thank you’



Liz saw a flash in front of her as the communicator withdrew.
The music had ended and she started to call me back. I replied but didn’t feel completely back.
I couldn’t speak properly and felt very shaky, like I was full of electricity.

Liz put the red light on dimly and did the closing prayer including a closing down exercise by which time I was fully back.

The cabinet had looked very speckly inside when I first started to come back but was now looking more like a white mist either side of me.

At the end Liz said there had been a lot of energy in the room despite there being only the two of us and she’d had the feeling some of Warren’s team had been in the room.

We are currently looking for one or two extra sitters and also one new sitter for the Mercury Star Circle. If you are interested, local to Eastbourne and feel you can add to the development of either circle please let me know…
