We had the room setup as usual.
Liz did the opening prayer at 8.10pm and included the question...
'I would like to know how our spirit team, those in spirit who are working with us, whether some of you have experienced and are adept at working with producing evidential physical phenomena such as the Scole Group produced. We know that there are some excellent physical mediums alive and some who are now in spirit, people like Alec Harris and many others who were able to produce whole body materialisations and much evidence for people that their loved ones were still alive and also of spiritual knowledge and understanding. My question is whether there are scientists amongst our spirit team who would wish to work with us in this way if it is possible and are able to bring this phenomena forward. We have asked for evidential mediumship but have become aware that the form of that evidence often takes a different form from what we anticipated but we know that people who join us in our group may expect a more traditional form of physical phenomena to be produced, moving objects etc. So if there is physical mediumship planned for this group and it's possible, is that within the auspices of the spirit team that is working with us, is it a part of the remit of our team and is it desirable and best suited to us. Any advice and comments on our way of working and our future methodology would be much appreciated'
Liz turned out the light and put the music on...
After two minutes the first communication started and Liz turned down the music...
'Good evening, good evening...'
Liz... 'Good evening and welcome to you'
'Here we are once again... we wait for our turn to come through and we make use of the energies of your room and we appreciate you asking us a question for it gives us something to concentrate our own energies on, it gives us a focus for we have spoken many times and we have developed a pattern in our own thinking, a pattern that develops each week and in that pattern are many smaller patterns, smaller reflections of the greater pattern and they makeup that one pattern. We are a group of conscious entities and we are blended together. We each represent one of the smaller patterns within the larger pattern. You too as you sit are creating your own pattern. The medium also has a pattern which corresponds with yours and those who sit with you, they too as they sit will develop a corresponding pattern. All spirit communication has to have some form of order, some form of... each individual has to blend with the rest, there could be no communication if one entity did not correspond to the rest. The purpose of a circle is to create one entity from many. This can only be achieved when each individual produces an identical pattern to those that sit. We speak of patterns, that may not fully describe what we try to get across. It could be explained as a frame of mind, a state of being. You all experience different feelings, different states of mind, your state of mind is constantly going up and down. When you sit together you pull each other towards a central focus. We too are pulling towards you. As we all blend together we create one entity, one larger consciousness, both you and us. You can feel our presence for you are blending with us. Your room is a focal point for you and for us. There is much that can be built, much that can develop when the harmonies are blended. When you feel us, when you see movement within your room that is us becoming closer, that is the blending of minds. As a circle develops a stronger reaction will be felt, the intent of the circle will guide the power of attraction towards that what is intended. You ask of physical phenomena, the physical world is full of phenomena, that phenomena is governed by the rules of your world, of your physical reality. Those rules can be broken but only when the harmony has been achieved throughout your circle and the circle that surrounds you from spirit. When you all become one and we become one with you, your thoughts become our thoughts, we begin to experience your senses, a feeling of power will fill your room. Try to imagine your physical world where all entities were connected and working as one, it would not work, it would cause... it would break up your world. The physical world works because you all work as individuals yet in the physical séance you can become one with each other and with us... I think you need to play your music for a while'
Liz... 'Alright I will, thank you friend'
Liz turned the music up then down again eight minutes later as another communication began with a different voice...
'Yes, the physical circle is always an adventure, an adventure guided by your choices. We will not tell you what to expect for you have to make your own reality within your physical circle. You have to make the choices; your adventure will be guided by those choices. Anything is possible, anything can be done, you are in charge but your choices must be made with love, love-based choices will work for everyone. Try not to expect, try not to build up expectations in your mind, allow the adventure to unfold naturally. You have seen and you have read about the mediums of the past and the phenomena that was produced. This was beneficial for many, it showed them that their loved ones did not die, did not become lost. It gave them the opportunity to think for themselves and question the physical world and see how the physical world was surrounded by more, more opportunities, opportunities beyond the physical yet now more questions are being asked. Models of reality are being produced in the minds of those who think, those who do not rely on the words that have been spoken in the past. You live in a time of change, why repeat the phenomena of the past when there is so much more to be discovered, so much more to be learnt, so much more that will help you live a more productive physical life, helping yourself and others. We can help you to understand your physical world and we can help you understand your place in that world. There is always something new to be discovered when you keep your mind open, do not expect that what has gone before to continue, keep your mind open, enjoy reading that what has happened before but know that your world is moving on, that the minds within your world are discovering new ideas, are putting their own ideas on the old ideas. Continue to sit as you do and you will create your own physical phenomena that will give you the understanding to help you appreciate the circle of life, the expansion of life, how life came to be and where life is going for you are that life. You can see beyond the physical phenomena of the past. You ask about physical mediums that have moved into spirit yet consider that they have themselves grown. They enjoyed a physical life, a temporary physical life yet their real life is permanent. Try not to build a picture of a spiritual vibration with physical images, the physical world is but a small part of the greater reality yet an important part and as time goes on it will become more important for it will bring together those who think for themselves, they will form groups and as the groups grow the quality of the consciousness within those groups will grow with it and the physical world, the vibration of the physical world will heighten. You are playing your part in the circles that you sit, keep your mind focused on the adventure ahead, let go of the past, you will soon see the benefit of an open mind... Please replay your music once again'
Liz... 'Certainly...'
Liz turned it up again.
Liz thought it looked lighter at the top of the room, like an arch of light.
18 minutes later another communication began with another different voice.
Liz turned down the music...
Liz... 'Welcome friend'
'Take the words physical mediumship, replace those words with spiritual mediumship. You are reaching out to us, you are wanting to understand the spiritual vibrations yet you call yourself a physical circle. Physical mediumship, what is physical? Do you truly understand the word? The word that conjures up the images of a physical world that seems so real yet can dissolve in one thought. Focus your mind on the world that we live, focus your mind on the spiritual vibrations. You sit in a room, you place physical objects in that room yet you work with spiritual energies, you work with the power of your mind. Your mind is not physical. We will work with you in the best way that we can but we require you to open your mind, let go of all that is physical for the time that you sit. You are not physical you are spiritual, you are a spiritual being. You are the same as us yet you will not let go of that physical world. This is understandable for you are connected to the physical world but that does not prevent you from raising your vibrations, working with us. Imagine your room as an opening to the spiritual world, your time spent in this room is a time spent in spirit. We will work with you on that level and we will help you to understand the reality of that level'
Liz... 'Are you suggesting that we are misplacing our energies if we focus on physical phenomena, it sounds as if you are suggesting that we are...'
'You are restricting your understanding yes, when there is so much more'
Liz... 'Limiting our scope'
'Exactly yes, there is a greater adventure to be undertaken'
Liz... 'I suppose from... how I see it from what you are saying, the magic effects when people want physical phenomena, those are effects that are brought through from a larger consciousness system that can operate to overturn or to cut through the normal physical laws that govern our particular frame of being and that while we're still limited by those physical laws that's not going to be possible but if working from the higher vibrational level of spirit that is where those law breaking physical effects are possible and so we are limiting what can take place by focusing on this need for physical phenomena such as ping pong balls moving and trumpets flying in the air and cardigans turned inside out but if we're focusing on that we are missing the point that those phenomena are coming from the greater consciousness system of a higher spiritual vibration'
'It is better to understand what causes the physical phenomena than to witness the physical phenomena. There is so much more to understand, that what lies behind the physical phenomena. Yes, you have answered your question yourself. We only wish for the best. We can understand how your mind works for your mind is with us and we can see the possibilities. We wish to help and we wish to give you experiences. Let go of the physical and you will experience so much more. There are no limits apart from the limits that you put on yourself'
Liz... 'So, during our work with you, during this time that we spend in this room dedicated to reaching out to you, our focus should be on attunement with spirit, on letting go of the physical and raising our vibrational level so that we can experience things from the spirit point of view, from the higher vibrational level'
'Yes, you are merely tuning in to that greater part of yourself'
Liz... 'And from that part presumably many things are possible that we haven't even dreamt of'
'That greater part opens up possibilities, opens up a new view point, a new perspective, something which will grow, something which can be fed, something which will enable you to understand so much more and in doing this you are helping others. You are creating a loving vibration which will shine out throughout your world'
Liz... 'The mediums through whom physical phenomena are manifested, the production of apports, ash, materialisation, those sort of effects, are they working at a higher vibrational level or is it because in the trance state spirit has been able to work through them?'
'All mediums have their own way of working depending on their own makeup, their own beliefs, their own fears. You are all made up of many components. A medium will allow only so much to be transmitted but the production of the mediumship is dependent on those who support that medium. The medium does not work alone, the medium works in a circle. All the sitters play their part, create the atmosphere. The atmosphere will be closer to the physical yet the medium may well travel into the spiritual vibrations. There is an attraction to entities in the spiritual world created by each circle and when expectations exist within that circle that attraction becomes more delicate, is faced with complications. An open mind allows the simplicity of spirit to work at its greatest...'
Liz... 'Power?'
'Yes power... the complications cause restrictions. Mediumship is always developed from both sides'
Liz... 'So, are you suggesting that by limiting ourselves to a particular form of mediumship an expectation of a particular type of mediumship we're actually restricting and limiting how spirit can work with us?'
'Yes, because you have to make the choices. We will not interfere with your choices for your choices are what create yourself, create and develop your mind, your inner being'
Liz... 'But are you saying that if we are too definitive about our choice of what mediumship we want we're limiting the opportunities for growth?'
'You are cutting yourself off from greater possibilities, you are holding yourself back until you discover, until you realise what you are doing'
Liz... 'So is the best approach for us to open our self to spirit and to be open for spirit to work with us in whatever way is going to be possible rather than specifically asking for physical mediumship with the understanding of what physical mediumship is by many people which is the production of phenomena, apports, lights, materialisation, tables lifting and moving, noises, those sort of things?'
'You merely need to ask for the greater understanding and a greater ability to love. You will always receive what you ask for, but that has its own limitations'
Liz... 'Okay... So are you saying that it we ask for balls moving, objects flying and for sounds and materialisations and magical phenomena we will get it but that maybe limiting ourselves, that there is more to be got. Is that what you are saying?'
'You are diverting the energies to that what you wish. Do not give diversions, give an open road'
Liz... 'Right, so we may miss the greater good, the greater understanding, the greater treasures as it were. Are the greater treasures then the treasures of thought, of thinking, of vision?'
'The greater treasures are yet to be discovered'
Liz... 'So perhaps they are of the direct perception of spiritual reality'
'You may not see us but you can blend with us and become us and share our thoughts. You do not need to believe, you only need to experience and once you have experienced you will not want to go back, you will be a part of us'
Liz... 'But I guess the first-hand experience is more difficult to share, for somebody else to believe, because they need to have that experience themselves, but I guess that is the fascination with the production of physical phenomena that a person who sees that for themselves, who experiences it because they're using their physical senses will be convinced of something other worldly having happened, something that would seem to be impossible and that can be very evidential'
'Some people will be convinced; some people will be sceptical. Is it not better to be sceptical, to think for yourself. Do not believe what you see'
Liz... 'It's true that some people even after seeing the phenomena still doubt it'
'You can never be sure of anything, you have to use your mind, you have to think for yourself, you have to be prepared to accept new ideas. Keep your mind open but question everything until you build up a knowledge so solid that it can support you, yet even then there is still so much more. Life is never ending, knowledge is never ending, the adventure has only just begun. Keep your thoughts pure and simple, do not complicate your life... Thank you my dear friend, I feel we now have reached the end of our session, we have spoken many words and we have created ideas and pictures in your mind. Use your intelligence to think about what we have said and make your choices in the best possible way for you and for others. Please take a piece of our love, take it out into your world, spread it amongst those who you meet, thank you, may God bless and keep you all, goodnight'
Liz... 'Thank you friend, goodnight and God bless you all'

I felt back with it after a minute.
Liz did the closing prayer, sent out healing and did our closing down exercise...
