Pendle, Oh Pendle

by

Today, we completed our musical recording of an old local folk song about Pendle Hill, sung by our very own angel, the talented Vanessa Reynolds, who is also the manager of the Sanctuary. The song has been skilfully arranged and edited, and features backing vocals by Wayne Avanson, a member of our inner Joseph group, with additional support provided by Sanctuary acupuncturist Sue Keedy, who also possesses an angelic voice. For an exclusive preview, click the player below and please pay particular attention to the second and last verses.

‘Old Pendle’ by The Sanctuary of Healing

This was truly a family affair, and there’s no way I can wait until the film is complete before sharing the song with you as it’s absolutely amazing, and I’m incredibly excited about it! Therefore, and as a precursor to the film, allow me to share with you an advance airing of the song – you are the first listeners (excluding our producers and singers, of course) ever to hear this version.

We are currently producing a short film that illustrates the significance of the location of the Sanctuary (the home of the WMA and the Joseph Communications) which is situated at the geographical centre of the UK. This location is a focus for magical, mystical and, most importantly, spiritual energies and is situated directly beneath Pendle Hill, which is historically renowned for its witch lore and also as the location where George Fox received inspiration leading to the establishment of the Quaker movement.

Symbols of Intention

by

The word Intention crops up in so many areas. I am clear that an intention is the first step in creating our future. Here is a beautiful article my wife, Sheila, gave me about how candles have a Universal Intention:

Candles are one of the few objects that have a universal appeal and are ancient, having been used by different cultures throughout history. They are not only beautiful to look at but have cross-cultural significance, which has contributed to their longevity. In many major religions, candles play a significant role as a symbol of passion, devotion, and connection to a higher power. Lighting a candle for someone signifies an intention to pray for them, and it is a practice that is widely adopted across different faiths.

The practical function of candles in everyday life cannot be overstated. They cast a soft, unobtrusive light that creates a restful and reflective atmosphere, perfect for relaxation or meditation. The idea of candles being used as a symbol of peace and tranquillity is one that is embraced across many cultures. In Christianity, lighting a candle signifies the remembrance of light being anchored into the world, while in Hinduism, it is a strong symbol of hope and prosperity. In Buddhism, the burning candle flame represents the light of the Buddha’s teachings.

The use of candles and incense also invokes the idea of change, which is a constant in life. Just as candles cannot exist without fire, humans cannot exist without a spiritual life. Candles are a reminder that we are part of a larger universe and that we can tap into our spiritual selves to effect change in our lives.

The use of candles as a symbol of intention is deeply ingrained in different cultures and religions worldwide. They have both practical and symbolic significance, serving as a source of light, hope, and connection to a higher power. They remind us of the power of intention, and the importance of creating a positive vision for our future.

Spotting the Miracle: The Sequel!

by

A miracle from one of our Friday family of meditators: 

Over the last two weeks, I shared two amazing, miraculous experiences that happened to my immediate family at the point of my brother’s passing. One of our weekly meditators shared this story with me and gave me permission to pass it on. I will refer to Her as Alice (although this is not her real name). 

Alice has a husband and children and they live in a rented house. They have lived there happily for a good few years. Recently, the landlord decided he wanted to sell the house and warned them that he needed them out and would be issuing two months’ notice. 

The discussions with him were strained and, even though Alice explained that they could not find anything suitable to rent or buy (given the current state of the market), he made it clear that the house was going to be sold shortly and they must vacate. 

Alice speaking: 

During the last month our meditations have been based on the topic of Empathy, and during this period the landlord asked for a face-to-face meeting to discuss the future. 

As a total surprise to myself and my husband, our landlord had completely changed his position! He talked about how tough it is to get on the housing ladder and described how he had been considering his own position – that he didn’t need the money from the house sale and that protecting our family was important to him. 

Ultimately, he has given us a year to either find an alternative or arrange a buyout. This was a complete turnaround, and I am totally convinced that the Empathy vibration and weekly meditations made all the difference. 

We were both elated after the meeting. Not only did it relieve a lot of pressure and give us time to make plans, but his compassion was very uplifting. In that moment, I fully understood the significance of the Intention of Empathy that Tony had been reading out in the meditations. Our landlord had reflected on his position and chosen kindness and compassion in his approach. 

I genuinely recognised that ‘wow moment’ – a moment of alignment with the divine. I feel that our meditations are making a difference to attitudes. The next intention is ‘Trust’ and I am now able to give myself completely to the Intention. I trust that things are going to be just fine. I’m not alone.

Our new Intention from Monday is Trust and the words behind the Intention are really exciting, we have a window of opportunity to strengthen and deepen our individual links and spiritual connections like never before.

Spotting the Miracle

by

This is a piece I wrote about an amazing spiritual experience my direct family had the privilege to go through recently with the passing of my brother in hospital. I was humbled by the large number of people from our group that responded and decided to put the event on the website. I do this to share how being aware of situations from a spiritual perspective can bring wonder and awe into a sad situation.

Last week my younger brother, Philip, died of a new and rare illness called Vexas syndrome.

What I would like to convey in this message is the incredible events leading up to his passing.

He had been in intensive care for six weeks and we, alongside the medical team, decided that it was appropriate not to resuscitate. He was moved out of the ICU ward on to another ward. It was a very busy ward.

The family comprises of myself, my sister and, would you believe, our mother who is 95. Two out of three of us were visiting every day, with Saturday being my sister’s day off.

The Saturday that Phil died, Jill (our sister) had an intuition that she would like to attend with us but when the three of us arrived, we saw for the first time the busy ward he had been moved on to.

It was very, very busy and noisy as we had entered at visiting time. We managed to squeeze around his bed and close the cubicle curtains. As usual, I connected by putting my hand on his heart. The energy was enormous! I suggested that Jill did the same. She could really feel the energy. Our mother then joined in and also felt the enormous energy.

At the point where the three of us were connected to Phil, the ward became silent, and I mean silent, not just quiet. We experienced that total silence for at least ten minutes, and there was an incredible feeling of love and peace.

Phil died peacefully within an hour. We were there and able to be part of the process.

Looking back, I realise that what happened was that time stood still for us and Philip. We had connected into that Divine passing.

Angelic Intention: Trust

by

Here’s the new Intention, delivered, as usual, by the Persian Gentleman. You can listen to Tony’s reading of the Intention, or read the full transcript, below.

PG: …Trust. And there is a dual-purpose to this Intention:

The first thing that will happen during this period is that people will have a stronger connection to their inner voice, and that inner voice will reveal to them the truth of situations that cannot be ignored. And therefore, they will have to listen to that voice and will have to trust, perhaps for the first time in their lives, that what is coming to them from within is the truth – and not what is being pushed towards them from outside of themselves. The inner voice will repeat and repeat and repeat some concepts and some realisations to them during this period that they will eventually, it is hoped – if they have enough moral fortitude – take on as truth and change their view.

They will, during this period, learn to trust from within – because what is being said to them will be reinforced in some way; will be reinforced perhaps just by someone speaking to them on the street; or reinforced from a global perspective as a result of something that will be revealed to them… so that they will know from within and without that what is being said to them is right and that they were right to trust in the inner voice.

…Vitally important, because that inner voice is the voice that will guide people through this misguided time.

Secondly, there is an imperative – a persuasion from within – to trust in the greater power; to trust in the greater vibration. To trust in the Divine. And to allow the Divine to flow through some situation in their lives that can only be resolved through trusting in that greater power. …It is an extension – an expansion – of trust in the voice within. It is the ‘layering’ of the voice within – so that there will be trust in the concepts that come to them from within and also trust in the vibrations that lie behind those concepts: the honesty; the direction; the guidance and the love of the Divine.

This, therefore, as with all of the Angelic vibrations that I pass on – and I do pass them on to you…they do not originate with me, they originate in higher spheres of consciousness – is an important vibration: an awakening; a blossoming …certainly for the first time with many souls… of the inner voice. A realisation that that inner voice exists; a realisation that that inner voice is telling them something, and then a realisation, subsequently within this period, that what they are being told – what is being impressed upon them from within, from that inner voice, is truth and can be relied upon.

This will be a jolt for many souls. This will jolt their world view. This will jolt their perspective. This will change their perspective and allow more Light into their own souls and allow more Light into the world.

Be at peace during this period. I’m speaking to you as meditators …be at peace during this period. Do not be anxious during this period. Do not focus on anything other than the will of the Divine; the will of the Angelic host being achieved – being present – infusing souls on earth and changing the direction that society and the world are taking at present.

Farewell until next time.

Angelic Intention: Empathy

by

Here’s the new Intention, delivered, as usual, by the Persian Gentleman:

Michael: PG today is dressed in blue-to-purple robe.

P.G.: What I haven’t said before is that, although you’ve inferred it, the colour I am dressed in each time reflects the nature of the vibration I’m about to announce. So today’s vibration is, colour-wise, within the blue/indigo/violet waveband and the title of the new Intention is:

EMPATHY.

…Empathy.

There is no greater lesson for souls as to how they should treat their fellow beings than to be placed in their shoes – if only for a few seconds. And for the duration of this Intention, which begins on the 28th of January and remains until the 19th of February, the vibration reaching the planet will encourage souls to empathise with those around them – with the plight of those around them; with the conditions of those around them.

During this time your personal empathy for people, as meditators, will also probably be heightened. Not because you need to have it heightened, but because the overall vibration will cause a heightening of that connection with others. So please don’t be alarmed if you find yourselves deeply moved by the plight of others, by the lives and circumstances that others have to go through on this planet, during this period.

It is intended, however, that the main power of the vibration affect those souls who have yet to learn that their actions have an effect on others… and for those souls to admit this vibration sub-consciously so that they will be made aware, during the time of maximum potency of the Angelic Vibration, of how it feels to be on the receiving end of their vibrations: How it feels to be oppressed; to be restricted; to be placed in positions of helplessness and pain and suffering.

There will – it is hoped, it is prayed for – be a time within the experience of each soul during this particular vibration reaching and infusing the planet… there will be a period for each of those souls during which they will become acutely aware of the effect of at least one of their actions on others. They are, of course, at liberty to recover from this sensation and to carry on as they are doing, but for many the sensation, the recognition, will be so strong that they will – it is hoped – be halted in their tracks and be placed once again on a heart-mind course that will lead to them expressing love rather than the darker side of their emotional spectrum.

Empathy…

Watch for it! Watch for cracks in the veneer during the time of this vibration and also be kind to yourself if you find you are over-reacting, or appear to be over-reacting, when considering the lot of others. This will simply be as a result of you already being sensitive and reacting to a vibration which will stimulate all souls (as each Angelic Intention stimulates all souls on earth) to be heightened in their response to the negative aspects of the lives of others. But, in the case of those souls who are acting out of dark motives at this time, it will be – it is hoped – an awakening to the Light.

Thank you as always for your participation in this great movement to shift the consciousness of the world – of humanity – back into a state of  love and harmony and an appreciation of the spiritual energies and Intentions that flow through all Creation.

Defeating Negative Vibrations

by

We can use anything in a good way or a bad way. The actual thing used remains the same no matter our intention. Consider how a weapon can be used to kill or protect. The weapon that kills is the same weapon before and after the act that kills. It is what we do with it that makes a difference. It is the same principle with vibrational energy. It is there to be used but it can be used in both directions. What we do with it matters.

Human beings use energy in every breathing moment. We use it to create our reality and that reality can be positive or negative. For example, we can create anger or get angry at a situation or person. But anger has a powerful resonance that will affect you by emitting a negative feeling. If it is aimed at a person, they will unconsciously receive it.

The pool of all human consciousness that acts like a collector of similar resonance will increase in strength. This pool of anger then reflects back onto humanity, making people feel deeper, that which might have been a minor irritation. Make no mistake, in this situation, the anger you created has just increased in strength within you. It will grow and express itself in situations that previously did not make you angry. You become the product of your thoughts.

So, what do we do?

In this scenario, we don’t do anger. That’s the one thing that we don’t do.

But how do we NOT do that which we have become such an expert at doing? It takes practice, almost like a new hobby. You are learning whole new ways of being. I shall keep with the same analogy of anger, or let’s say road rage as a more specific aspect.

First, be aware of all aspects of your road rage. Do you say things to yourself? I bet he is going to cut me up, or he did that on purpose! Do you see the offending driver as a demon with your inner vision?

Notice the inner-feelings, spot where they live within you. This is a big step! You are now noticing the process of what is happening rather than being the product of the emotion.

Now, being aware of exactly how this is affecting us, we can do something different. We plan that change in advance by rehearsing a new inner-speech and a new inner-vision, both of which will lead to neutralising that crippling gut emotion we all feel when angry (or afraid).

So, just as an example, you might cut short the inner-speak when it starts like a worn-out record and change it into a positive statement. The statement can be neutral, like:

I better hold back. That driver needs space.

Or my personal favourite:

I bless that driver so that he may proceed safely for himself and others.

Change the inner image. Again, by rehearsal: With your inner eye picture the driver as somebody you are close to or know well. Put your awareness into your lower stomach and pay attention to your breathing.

If you do this, you will break the old pattern that leads to the heightened emotions of anger or rage. The anger will not happen, and you will have lightened your bodies negative emotional load. You will have lowered the universal load of anger, helping humanity regain its natural positive nature.

Working on, and neutralising, negative emotions is a huge step towards clearing our spiritual pathway. A huge step also for deeper meditational experience. In a future article, I will take this one step further by focusing on forgiveness.

Angelic Intention: Transparency

by

Below Michael introduces the Persian Gentleman, who then reveals the new angelic frequency:

Michael: PG is dressed in yellow with some green in it, and he says that the vibration is one of change, which is why he is suitably attired.

PG: …and the title of this new Intention is:

Transparency

The Intention runs from the 21st. of December till the 27th. of January. There is a special gift during the period of this Intention, because the vibrations reaching souls on earth will enable them to define the truth of situations by looking through the deceptions that are around on earth at this time.

In the spirit worlds, in the cleansing spheres, the motive of a soul is displayed – writ large – in their aura. There is no difference between those cleansing spheres and here on earth – except on earth there is a density of negativity that acts as a smokescreen; and there is a gullibility with certain souls because they are used to handing over their personal responsibility to others.

During this period the vibrations that reach souls will, without them consciously knowing it at first, act within them to allow them to be more discerning, to allow them to see when talking to someone; to see when reviewing a situation; to see when listening to someone, the truth of what is being presented to them.

The reason that this vibration is with you at the moment is because there is an urgency at this particular time – and as a result of certain conjunctions of ‘heavenly bodies’ – to strengthen this imperative. There is an urgency for more souls to decide, as it were, which side of the fence they are on, and the more souls that awaken as a result of this vibration and come down on the side of wholeness, of creation, of goodness, of Divinity, the less hold the negative vibrations will have on the earth and on those putting them forth …because these souls are also being influenced from ‘beyond’, but not in a good way.

And it is intended  that the ‘see-saw’, the pivot, will be weighted more on the side of the Light than it has been for the past several years.

This is an important vibration.

Please, during your meditations, see in your imaginations the warmth of your love surrounding each soul, every soul, on earth. As a result of surrounding them with love, with Light, that vibration will be more accessible to them. You will also see, nationally and internationally, as a result of the new Intention, a number of reveals that are as a direct result of your meditations, of your spreading this particular frequency around the globe.

This is a time, due to religious observance for much of the world – not for all of the world but for much of the world – when the world becomes, as a result of more peaceful thoughts… more familial thoughts… becomes more receptive. Souls become more receptive because their minds are turned away from the material, the every-day, the work life, the worries, the monetary worries, and so the Intention has a far greater opportunity to gain purchase and to be effective than it would at other times of the year.

And this is reflected in the strengthening of the Intent via the conjunctions that are around at the moment in the ‘heavenly bodies’. As you know, I studied these when I was on earth… I studied the stars, the planets, and so I am delighted to see this particular conjunction come to pass in the constellations.

Transparency…

Breathe it.

Live it.

Meditate on it and spread that concept, that Light, that vibration to All during this period, please.

-My love, peace and gratitude to you all.

– Quite a lengthy communication this time, with ‘P.G.’ detailing the vibrations we will be sending out to humanity and the planet throughout the Christmas period and into the New Year.
