Elba Shares Her Monet
During a recent session in mediumship a beautiful woman in spirit, Elba, reaches out to offer evidence of her existence in spirit by drawing her daughter’s attention to something Maria would recognize. Because I have no knowledge of the item in question, three things have to happen.
-
-
- Elba needs to describe the item step by step in order to lead me to describe it well enough for Maria to understand
- I need to convey my experience of clairvoyant (visions), clairsentience (knowing), clairaudience (hearing) without editing, judging or letting my ‘brain’ get in the way
- Maria has to remain open to the possibility I am being guided by her mom – i.e. be patient, with a willingness to consider my description will lead to something significant.
-
Here’s how things went.
As I meditate, I receive a strong feeling Elba is about to reveal something of import. I hear the word, “Buttercup” but do not see a flower. Instead, two colours appear; first a bright yellow, then to the left, blue begins to swirl. The way these colours blend together I am reminded of a Monet painting. You know––the one of the lilies? But all I see is colour, so I don’t mention anything about Monet.
Although the colours have not formed into anything recognizable to me, I hear again “Buttercup,” then a third time, “Buttercup.” When words repeat in this gentle way, I know nothing else will be revealed until I share this particular idea. Without judgement I say,
“She (Elba) is trying to show me something of importance. First, I see yellow, then the colour blue appears beside it. I can’t see what it is, just yet. But I have the idea of flowers. Wanted to say ‘buttercup’ at first.”
Now it is Maria’s turn to make a connection with Elba’s sharing. Maria explains, “She loved flowers so much. She had a garden at her house and took care of all her flowers like her babies. That was before I moved her in with me.”
While I appreciate Elba’s love of flowers, I am certain the imagery she is sharing is not about her garden. This is not a general idea of a love of flowers. Elba is trying to show me something specific. I reach out to Elba to confirm my knowing and ask her for more details.
Elba shows the following sequence.
A line appears and wraps around the colours in my vision in a rectangular shape as though the colours are now on paper. The paper moves upward, as though an invisible hand is holding it. I get the idea of a bookmark (brain intervention – it is not my place to interpret but I do need words to portray the idea), or something similar. I have just googled Monet paintings and taken this snippet to try to show you an example of what I see in my vision.
The rectangular image moves a little distance away from me. I have the sense it is being placed or taped on a wall. Although this doesn’t entirely make sense to me (a bookmark taped to a wall?), I trust it has meaning and share it with Maria. I say,
“Whatever this is, it is almost the size of a book mark… I want to say it is sideways on the wall, like notepaper, or paper, or a card….
Maria disappears for a moment. When she returns, she sends this photograph and explains, “This picture was by her bed… … (it) was hung up beside her. It was a picture one of the grand-daughters made for her.”
Here is Elba’s Monet!!
If you were playing charades and had to describe this beautiful painting given to you by your beloved grand-daughter, how would you go about it?
Elba steps:
Buttercup (do you imagine a yellow flower?)
Yellow has blue beside it
Like a Monet’s painting
On rectangular shaped paper
Taped to the wall
Brilliant!
Thank you, Elba for sharing your Monet with me and for helping Maria know you are still close by.
With love,
