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...

105th Sitting 14/07/2014


This week we sat in white light and set the room up as we had been instructed last week.
I sat out in front of the cabinet, Liz sat as usual to my right and we placed two white lights on tables at the far end of the room.
I put the voice recorder on a chair to my left.

Liz did the opening prayer at 8.30pm then put the music on.

I had feelings around my head, face and right ear, the same as I usually experience when in blackout.
I also had a noticeable tightness in my stomach which I don’t usually get and this lasted about 10 – 15 minutes at the beginning of the session.

Liz could see a dark aura around my head and what looked like a dark beard and fringe appearing.

About five minutes after the opening prayer a few noises started from me and Liz turned off the music…

Liz… ‘Hello friend… welcome’

‘Good evening, good evening… All good, good, work, work, we are able to work in this way’

Liz… ‘That’s good’

‘Ok, ok… it is… it is a new experiment for us to work in this way. Having sat for so long in the dark, we have a chance to bring the voice forward in the light, in your electrical lights. There is an abundance of energy for us to work with. It build up quick and we are able to plug into energy and bring forward voice… Slowly more come through for us to… Say hello, hello… Now come forward, circle of light that we are all a part of, this circle of light we are all able to touch this vibration that you are now a part of. There are many here who wish to bring themselves forward to speak’

Liz… ‘You’ll be very welcome’

‘They all carry with them a state of excitement, they wish to come through. We can allow some to step forward; it is a balancing act that we use to allow each communicator to come through in this way. Once they have stepped into the energy they find their excitement is increased as they remember, as they find their memory of physical experience once again coming to them for they are once again experiencing a physical vibration. They need to learn to control these feelings before they can bring their own message through but this is a good opportunity for them to practice’

Liz… ‘That’s good’

‘I now step back, we will allow, keep your music off for a period now’

Liz… ‘Okay’

‘We will see what we can achieve so let it go quiet for a brief period…’

Liz… ‘Certainly’

A different voice started to come through…

‘Hello, hello…’

Liz… ‘Hello, I can see your dark shape’

‘Hello, hello… I… Can you hear, can you hear?’

Liz… ‘I can hear you and I think I can see you’

‘Good, I can hear you… and I feel that it is such a wonderful place for us to come, settle I settle, I settle down…’

Liz… ‘Have you been here before?’

‘I have been. I did say a few words some time ago… adjust, adjust… we need to adjust… yes… I go… colour, colour… recognise… Dear Paul, dear Paul he alone has not come through as yet to be able to speak in his voice, now, now can you hear?’

Liz… ‘Yes’

‘Correct… there’s… Come through in a correct way, yes, just working, we working… We work, Paul now, Paul he has, he is here…’

Liz… ‘Welcome Paul’

‘Now can… He can work; he can work forward, forward… Paul, Paul, circle, circle… We will, very good… decimal recreation, recreation is a lovely place, is open to all, it is open to all to explore, but sometimes there are those who push their way into the mix but we have a hold on the situation’

Liz… ‘That’s good’

(Banging noises are coming from next door)

‘There needs to be a… We need to keep a state where by we have control and we are directing those who come forward. We have a strong hold on the situation’

Liz… ‘Good, you need to be gate keepers’

‘Yes, sometimes we have what for you will appear a mixture of personalities at the same time. This is how it will appear to you at this time for although we are coming through in an organised way the result of new personalities impinging on the mind will result in a mixture of words coming through your end. It is, this evening we are trying a different approach as the conditions are set in a different way but we find this is a benefit for the overall development of our trance communication for we are seeing the weak links that are apparent. These conditions are showing up weak links that we can work on when we return to the blackout conditions next week. So for us it is a good learning opportunity, it is opening up the communication for us to work on. It is a difficult thing for us to explain to you but rest assured we have it under control and we find it beneficial to us to work in these conditions’

Liz… ‘Good’

‘Now we have a hold have you any questions for us?’

Liz… ‘Yes do you find that without the cabinet you can still maintain the energy you need with the medium, the energetic connection with the medium?’

‘It is a different way for us but the energy we work with when in a lightened room, the energy is more… is in effect closer to the physical body of the vehicle we work through. When we work in blackout conditions the energy is a looser energy, it is allowed to move away from the physical body. That is why we sit in the cabinet for the cabinet it’s self is a physical structure and we can allow the energy to spread out to the barrier that the physical cabinet has created’

Liz… ‘So the energy is more tightly centred on the medium in the light?’

‘Yes, this is normally how a trance medium would work. Trance mediums do not need to work in blackout conditions’

Liz… ‘Okay, I can see what feels like a band of energy, a sort of darker area around the medium’s head. It’s about an inch and a half in width. Is that the energy you’re talking about? Seems to get larger at times’

‘It is an effect of the energy working around the medium. There are…’

Liz… ‘And I can see shapes, black shapes that are moving on the wall behind, dim black shapes, clouds, is that also another… what is that I’m seeing?’

‘As we move close we can be perceived by yourself. It is not a physical visual effect; it is what you would call a clairvoyant vision, a clairvoyant effect. You will perceive it as a physical effect. There are many energies which build up around the medium at this time. The energy we work with would not be visible to you. It is an energy within the physical structure of the medium but as we ourselves draw close a visual effect will be perceived by you’

Liz… ‘The entity Paul who came through, who was trying to come through earlier, is he still around?’

‘He is, like many, close at this time. He had, he wanted to speak, he will speak, maybe not this evening but when conditions are at their best he will take a hold of the situation and bring himself through’

Liz… ‘Is he known to us, either of us?’

‘Only he will be able to tell you this. I am not permitted at this point to talk about the personalities of those who are gathered. We have decided that when the time is right then each personality will tell you themselves. This will be so much more evidential for you, for you will feel the personality as well as their spoken word. You will get a connection; you may see a picture of that personality for when they come close to the medium they are also close to you. You have already felt the presence of many in this room. This is a joint experience when this happens, when these personalities are close to you they are also close to the medium but until the medium is sufficiently withdrawn they will not attempt to bring themselves through in a trance capacity. They will wait until that opportunity is forwarded to them so they can speak with a clear, with a pure message which will be recognised by you or whoever else may be in the room at that time for we wish to work in an evidential way when these opportunities come forward. It is no good us giving you information from another for they have to work at bringing their own evidence through to you…’

Liz… ‘First hand’

‘…yes, I hope you can appreciate the importance of this’

Liz… ‘Yes, and you are acting as the presenter, as the doorkeeper’

‘At this time yes, I am a control of the medium, one of the controls, I can speak in a clearer way, I can keep hold of the medium’

Liz… ‘Yes you’re very clear. Have you worked through a medium previously?’

‘Yes, yes I have spoken in your physical world through another medium… Now you’re going to ask who was that medium and I will not say at this time but I will, I will at times give you clues as to who I spoke through. You will also find when you delve into your books, your history books of physical mediums you may pick up a feeling for one of those mediums, you will recognise something about that medium which gives you a hint into who or what I am. For I worked and I gave a name when I worked through another medium. That is all I am permitted to say at this time, all will be revealed in the fullness of time. We are getting closer to a time when we will bring more information for you but for now we will continue to talk in a more…’

Liz… ‘General’

‘Yes, general way, we can tell you about the mechanics, how we work, and we can tell you something of the energies that we work with as we have done in the past. These are all interesting subjects but you are welcome to ask anything’

Liz… ‘Will you attempt to produce a direct voice, external voice box with this medium?’

The voice changed a bit at this point. It sounds like two or three different voices were being used at different times before returning to the original voice.

‘We are already working on this, there are in place various energies which are being developed at this time and there will be attempts at speaking independent of the medium. We have been working for some time, we have tried various ways to produce a sound in your room, these are, these are attempts. We have built; we have brought forward an energy which we can work with. It will eventually give you a sound in your room. Yes so in answer to your question we will bring the voice forward, we will bring the voice out of the medium, we are developing an independent voice’

Liz… ‘Is there anything that I can do as a sitter to help with this’

‘When you sit, you need, you will at times feel a slight pulling from yourself… Have you ever noticed a pulling sensation?’

Liz… ‘Yes’

‘When you notice this let us know for your energies are also being used in the production of independent voice. You will know when this happens as you will feel a pulling sensation. So when this happens report it, we will know that we are succeeding in drawing a small amount of energy from yourself’

Liz… ‘I can feel a pulling sensation from my fingers’

‘Yes, so this will happen, you will also feel it from your forehead’

Liz… ‘Is it better not to eat for several hours before a session?’

‘We recommend a period of two hours before you sit. Do not eat but do not sit when you feel hungry, the most important ingredient to bring to the séance is a feeling of well-being, not hungry, not over fed, a balance between the two. You need to feel as ease both in body and mind then we can work with you, this also applies to the link we work with. Some people have been known to not eat for lengthy periods before sitting. They believe this to help but if they feel hunger while sitting this will detract their mind from the harmonious mood they need to be in. So although we ask for two hours before you sit make sure you have had sufficient during your day. Do not warrant a hunger feeling when you sit. Does that answer your question?’

Liz… ‘Yes it does thank you’

‘We are enjoying this session in the light, you may have noticed a varying energy, a shift in energy at times. We are moving in and out of the energy of the link. We are varying the energy brought forward’

Liz… ‘Okay, yes my hands are feeling very buzzy’

‘Yes you are feeling the energy as we work with it’

Liz… ‘It’s relaxed my diaphragm which was feeling very tight’

‘Yes you probably felt a tightness at the beginning of our session’

Liz… ‘Yes’

‘This was necessary for us, for the initial build-up of our energy. Once we have engaged our contact then we are able to relax that hold of you and of our link. We needed it to step into, now we are here we are able to work in a more relaxed way… We are going to step back for a while. If you could put your music on we will work with the conditions while you play your music, thank you’

Liz put the music on…


Liz was still getting a strong pulling from her fingers.

After about 15 minutes a few noises started from me again, and then a few random words until the communication became more coherent…

‘Thank you for creating this place for us, so good for us…’

Liz… ‘You’re very welcome’

‘This safe environment that we use…’

Liz… ‘Does it make a difference having a dedicated space?’

‘It is so much better for us to have a dedicated space like this. A place where only physical mediumship and healing takes place. It allows so much to be achieved; we are able to build our own store of energy in this room. Each time we meet like this we introduce another part of our energy, another piece of the puzzle to build and grow. It becomes a store house of energy… It is a… We are creating a picture. We are adding to this picture each time we work with you. We are also painting this picture, the more detail we can put into this picture the more the greater part of ourself is… This picture represents our energies in this room. We are able to put our energies into this room; we can leave a piece of ourselves in this room. We are building this picture up in your room so that one, at one time; at a time in the future there will be a finished picture in your room. This finished picture will represent the build-up of development. It will represent a pure connection. A connection which we will use to bring our communication, we will be able to bring forward these personalities who wait. We will be able to engage in a recognisable, informative way’

Liz… ‘When you use the word picture, I’m not quite clear how that is going to be perceived, whether it’s a structured environment, a simulation of the physical?’

‘We use the picture as a way to describe the introduction of energies into your room. Various forms of energy are brought into the room. In the same way as various colours are used in the production of a picture, a painting. Each energy is represented by a different tone of colour. The way the energy is brought into your room is represented by the way the brush strokes on the canvas. The direction, the force of the brush on the canvas to create shadow and light. We cannot explain energies in a way that would be understandable to you’

Liz… ‘I’m trying to fathom whether you’re referring to the re-creation of personality that’s recognisable to us?’

‘That is something which will come through when the picture is at its peak. The picture is a preparation for us. Once the picture is created then the personalities will come through’

Liz… ‘As you are talking do you feel yourself as a personality still or are you beyond the level of personality. Do you locate yourself in a particular personality?’

‘As we step into your physical atmosphere we need to bring a personality through. If we were to communicate in the way we are now you would not receive, you would not recognise a communication. We need to use a personality for you to recognise, for you to give…’

Voice changed several times…

‘It is… physical… a physical vibration… for communication to take place in a physical atmosphere a recognisable physical personality is required to communicate. We have a build-up of personalities that we can join with. We on our own, on our own we are but a force, but an energy, but a motivating force on its own would not produce the required physical contact. When you take part in your own experiments, your journeys to our side, then you are engaging with our true motivating force. You are leaving; you are taking yourself out of your physical atmosphere and adjoining with us’

Liz… ‘Okay, but the actualization of that intent, the focusing of it needs a personality’

‘Yes we need to be understandable to you; we need to be recognisable, so yes a personality is required, is used, is taken up and assimilated forward’

Liz… ‘Right, I can get a picture of that, feels a little bit like having to use a mould’

‘Yes, is able to come forward’

Liz… ‘Yes you’re coming into a dimension, into a vibrational level where shape and form are very important, structure, structural’

‘Yes you have built for yourself a model of your reality and we need to match that model. It would be impossible for us to step into your reality, your created reality, in anything but what would be recognisable for you. Only when you yourself step out of your own reality can we become, can we communicate with you in a non-physical way. This is why it is so difficult for you to remember…’

Liz… ‘Yes the dreams, the teaching in the dreams, to bring it back…’

‘…the dreams and those experiences you have had but do not despair for those experiences are still with you. You will be able to engage with those experiences when you step out of your physical experience. There really is no separation. It is all one, it is just a case of where…’

Liz… ‘Shifting focus’

‘…where your focus is now, you have chosen to have this physical experience now but because of your interest and your desire to expand your mind you are allowed brief excursions into further experiences. Many on your side are satisfied with their physical experience this is not a problem for they are still working on many different levels at the same time. They just do not have an awareness of this but by keeping their focus in the physical they still are presented with opportunities, learning opportunities, they have choices, and they make their choices based on the point they have reached. All on your side are at a stage, a stage you have; you have come to from that learning, that choosing…’

The communication faded out but carried on whispering incoherently then got louder and started to get more coherent again…

‘…Yellow, yellow, purple, orange, red, blue… They are the colours, we have all the colours, we all mix with you, we come, we follow the colour until we get that feeling of closeness, closeness creeping up on us, it is a circle of light, of colour, colours surround this place, colours leek into the atmosphere of the room one at a time. Each colour can move towards the centre mixing with the next colour until the mix is perfected then we will step in, we will step into that colour and bathe our self until we have a physical effect, a physical presence in your room. We can move close, we can touch; we can bring you a picture, a vision of our self… Each time we come close we are accompanied by further colours that follow. They all mix together; there are so many colours, so many textures interwoven one into the other forming a tread, a thread of communication from our side into your room. Communication and feeling that experience binding together until a feeling is brought forward, thank you’

The communication faded again but incoherent mumbling continued…

Liz thought it would help if the music was put on and asked… ‘I’m going to put the music on for a little bit if that’s alright?’

‘No, thank you for your concern… we are trying, we are working without music for now, we find this is…’

A few minutes later after more incoherent mumbling another communication started…

‘Jacob, Jacob…’

Liz… ‘Hello Jacob?’   

‘Yes, Jacob, hello… Happy, happy, find myself, so I find myself here, so for is, is it, is it okay?’

Liz… ‘It is okay’

‘Thank you for letting me come’

Liz… ‘Welcome’

‘I don’t, I find, what, where, what is it, where am I?’

Liz… ‘You’re here in the Mercury Light Circle’

‘The circle, yes, that is it, that is what they said, they said it was a circle yes, well…’

Liz… ‘What brings you here Jacob?’

‘I was… I was attracted, I found, I saw this light and I found myself, it was working, there were…’

Jacob faded out.
Then after a couple of minutes…

‘So now, can you play please the music for a short while thank you’

Liz… ‘Yes, yes certainly’

Liz put the music back on.


After about 25 minutes more noises started up from me and Liz turned off the music again…

Liz… ‘Hello friend, ha, ha, we’re near the end of our session…’

‘Once again we reach the end of our special session. We have enjoyed sitting in the light. We have experimented, we have brought forward various personalities, some were easier to break through, others still have to practice, it is all good practice for us. We next week we will return to blackout conditions. We shall continue in blackout for several weeks now but we will return, we will return to lightened conditions again. It is all experimentation but now we have reached the end of our energy and we give to you a piece of our love to take out into your physical world to spread amongst your friends, your acquaintances, all who you meet in your daily life. Thank you for this time and we now draw back and we say goodnight, play one more tune as we ease ourselves away back to our own environment, thank you, goodnight…’

Liz… ‘Goodnight friend, thank you very much, our love and blessings with you’


Liz put one last tune on.
I came slowly back and felt fine by the end of the tune.

The session had gone on for two and a half hours this week.

Liz did the closing prayer, sent out healing and did our closing down exercise.

I think I had gone off for a while at some point before the last communication came through. I remember being woken up by a prod in my side.
I had remained aware during the communications but as always could only remember bits of what was said afterwards and it had felt to me like there wasn’t that much said so I was surprised when I listened to the recording.
When Liz asked the communicator if he had spoken through another medium previously I could feel myself wanting to say ‘no’ like a kind of knee jerk reaction wanting an easy way out but whoever was in control managed to block that and say ‘yes’ This I found to be an interesting experience and more evidence for me that it is indeed separate entities speaking through me and not something coming from myself.
It had felt much like when we sit in the dark the only difference being the noticeable tightness felt in my stomach at the beginning and my mouth had felt very dry after the communications.

Liz had noticed a few different faces on mine; one reminded her of an 18th century French person.
She thought the communications had sounded the same as when we sit in the dark.
