...so one day a few years ago, I was practicing seeing if I could tune in to certain different energies. I thought it would be fun to check into a fan of mine. Old Al. Since I knew he was very different then me, it would be helpful to know if I could really do this (channeling if you will...) because his energy would stand out.

So I sat down with my coffee on the deck that morning and meditated about 15 minutes. and then I asked, and bingo. I had a fascinating visit with him. I was blown away. funny as hell in a very dry way, sarcastic --for lack of a better word and of course, smart as hell. When I came out of it I was laughing.

I asked for a little sign for confirmation but feeling very sure. I went in for coffee refill. when I came out and stood in the sun on the edge of the deck I was startled to see that there was a young bird, flapping away and dying slowly. It was being stung by what seemed like hundreds of bees (or wasps or something) it was covered with them everywhere! I was horrified, and shocked since I had never seen anything like that. Then I remembered I had asked for confirmation. So that made me laugh again --so Al, right, no issues with death, bring up the dark side to get to the light...

So I had to know, what the meaning was. I sat back into meditation and tuned right in again. What came up was that the bird represented freedom. The hive --they represented family. The bird had lost it's flight the hive was killing it. I love that now, it was so right. At the time I blew it off and laughed it away, silly Al --talking about general people, oh he's right I thought... but not about me...lol
Poor little bird was reborn though... :)
