Eikon: Hello and welcome, all of you. Nice to see you. My name is
Eikon and I am here from the Spirit world that surrounds each of you.
And each of you have come with your cast and crew of Spirit Guides
who are taking their places and preparing for the evening to begin.
For the subject tonight is intuition which We are saying is a cognition
for uncertain times. The theme is such a mouthful that we will have
to take it piece by piece.
First ‘uncertain times’.
Intuition is the perfect vehicle to get you through uncertain times.
And if you are honest, you will
notice that every moment in your life is an uncertain time. For you
do not truly know what is next.
When trends come, when the climate changes, you are aware of the
uncertainty. But when the backdrop stays the same, one easily forgets
that every moment is completely unknown and has unlimited potential.
So the first thing is
accepting that times are uncertain. For you do not know what the
next time will be like. However, there’s
a part of you that is unchanged through all this uncertainty.
This is the part of you that perceived the world the way you did
as a small child, which occasionally and rarely you may have recurrences
of in your life.
[someone enters the room]
Because you never know when something is going to come in! It is
uncertain, for certain!
And who was really prepared
for that! But if we were tuned in, we would’ve known that
everyone was not here.
Nevertheless, it is the
mind that struggles with uncertainty. We will create uncertainty
and nervousness for them [those that are coming
in] by continuing to talk while they try and find their seats again.
For they will be disoriented and be concerned about everything
they’re
missing.
But intuition allows one
to find one’s center. For intuition
is only available when one is quiet. When one can feel the safety
and security support of one’s life.
The intuitive part is the natural part of being a human being on
earth. It is the natural way to orient oneself. And it is a pure layer
that is connected to Spirit, which you may or may not picture as Spirit
Guides or Angels, but nonetheless is some kind of super intelligence
that you can align with and can guide you even in your darkest moments.
For we are there to respond to the call from you, not to interfere.
Speaking of interference. Here they go! [a band plays loudly in the
garden] This will be rare, being accompanied!
The mind is a layer that
sits on top of this intuitive, natural mechanism. It has been taught
by repetition. For what you have learned in your
mind is based on what you call ‘laws’ and what you call
‘learning’, which is the application of repetitive facts.
Intuition, spirit and truth are not based on repetition. And the
mind is in love with repetition, as is the body. And this is the most
important point in understanding intuition.
As a human, you have three compartments: the body, the mind and the
feeling, which is connected to the intuition. The body and mind base
their existence on repetition and learn about the physical world through
this.
Spirit is about the unknown
entering and therefore is forever at odds with the mind and body’s
expectations. This is why each of you, having been well trained
by those that brought you up, are
forever learning to trust your intuition and Spirit. And forever
doubting it and resorting to what you have learned already. It
is your conditioning
or training.
And we wish to enforce or re-enforce your continued experimentation
and exploration of intuition. For it is your only line to truth. For
life does not repeat. Experience does not repeat. Yet forever conclusions
are drawn about repetition.
So enough repeating this
fact. The point is you are swimming upstream or rather jumping
off a cliff to get to a place where you are trusting
your intuition – forever doubting, forever learning. And for
each of you here, this is one of the reasons you have chosen to come
to live a life on Earth.
We call this faith. Faith is coming from the place of knowing about
something that has not manifested. Just like you know that if you
throw a ball, gravity will bring it down. You know that before you
throw it. Faith is about knowing the support of Spirit is there and
knowing that if you ask, a response will be delivered.
Learning to trust this is why each of you has come. And in various
levels are learning to trust it more by your opening. So you see,
the goal in your life is to not fear or create avoidance around uncertainty,
but rather to embrace. And become adept at navigating uncertain times.
For that is what you are given in this life, a lifetime supply of
uncertainty. And the question is, how will you manage that? For those
that are not as wise, the response is, by trying to create certainty,
reliability, stability and repeat-ability. But it is all temporary
and ultimately that house of cards will collapse.
As you embrace uncertainty, you move closer to the truth, which will
serve you in this life and the next. For uncertainty is only in terms
of events. For the loving support that brings your life force through
this body is certain, unchanging, uninterrupted, and unquestionable.
So what is uncertain is
what you would call ‘the way things
are going.’ For we know each of you would love things to be
going a little differently from time to time. And we say they are
going
the way they are to support you and to lead you to something for
your own growth and happiness. So please look under that rock when
you
are drawing your analyses.
For there is a reason for all experiences in your life. And if you
accept that your life is guided, you can avoid many unsightly detours,
which is what we would love for each of you.
How do you each experience intuition? Do you think a psychic has
something that you do not? Do you think that there are certain people
that are gifted here and certain people can only intuit so much?
For we assure you, none of you came to this planet knowing how to
read or drive a car or play tennis. And these are extremely complex
systems that you have mastered to varying degrees, however required
much effort to even approach.
We say intuition is far
easier, far more natural, and much more a part of your pure Self.
Yet there is no school until you are out of
school. For your school system of your governments do not wish intuition
to be steering the ship of its’ citizens. And it is understandable.
So we would love to hear from you now. For we love to hear where
you are and we greatly appreciate you sharing your questions, specifically
about intuition and your life. For we can be specific as you are specific
about what intrigues you and what frustrates you, and what you are
learning on this subject.
Q-1: Eikon, the intuition
that I sometimes feel I’m experiencing…I
don’t know if it’s my wishful thinking, my fantasy life
or whether this really is some intuitive input that I’m becoming
aware of.
Eikon: Yes, this is the
most important question that anyone could ask, and everyone does,
about intuition all the time. For intuition
is connecting with unmanifested possibility. And your imagination,
wishful thinking and so on creates unmanifested potentiality also.
So it’s as if the loading zone where you go to get your intuition
is the same neighborhood as where the imagination creates its playthings.
And the scenery is similar, but there are important differences.
This is where repetition
or we will say ‘practice’ comes
into play. For there is a distinctly different tone to intuition
and it has an interesting characteristic, which is: you would have
never
thought of it yourself. You would have never thought of it yourself.
And there is a way to understand this.
Your thinking is based on repetition and recreating same-type scenarios.
Intuition, the connection with Spirit, is about the unknown entering
into your awareness. You may begin to recognize the voice of your
guide or guidance in your life as having a distinct tone. But more
importantly it comes when you are not prepared and not ready and not
interested in what is being offered, very often.
For everyone here, we guarantee, we will not give a number, but we
will say the majority of guidance-driven thoughts, ideas are discarded.
They have no weight. For we cannot give the intuitive thoughts you
seek any weight. They are weightless. They are offerings. They are
unmanifested. Only humans can take that and wrap your passion around
it and bring it into a manifested act.
It is the same thing you
do with your own thoughts. I think I will go to the store and buy
a new box of pencils. It is something you
can do. You can take it from a thought and turn it into a reality.
Or you can decide I’ll just use a pen. I will not do this.
And discard the thought, and the manifestation never takes place.
It is the same with guidance.
We think you should call your brother today and see how he’s doing. We can whisper this to you and
you can ignore it. Or you can say, ‘Why am I thinking about
my brother? I just saw him a few weeks ago and he was fine.’
So it is up to you. But
it is certainly something you would not have considered. For it
did not necessarily make sense. The original title
of tonight’s talk which Robert crossed out and asked for a better
one was this: "Intuition: the power of not making sense".
And this is a way to discern it. The thoughts don’t make sense,
but they come pregnant with possibilities for you to align with.
And
until you have followed them and they begin to manifest, you may
not see this.
So it is following the unknown versus the expected and wishful known.
Does that give you a guideline?
Q-1: Yes, it does. Thank you.
Q-2: How can we lay the
foundation to open ourselves up to receive or to pay attention
more to this intuition, this guidance that’s
coming in?
Eikon: You need to send
yourself signals. For we are not speaking metaphorically when we
say you have been programmed
to ignore it. Your repetitive, scholastic experiences and structure
of your culture is dead-set against it. And you have denying thoughts
that say ‘Never mind’. You must counter this with messages
to yourself that say ‘I am receiving intuition now. It is really
happening.’
We suggest the most powerful way is giving gratitude
at the moment something appears. Even before acting on it
or understanding what it is. If you have been pointed in a direction,
immediately thank your guidance in whatever way works for you. For
you must begin to counter the messages that there is no such thing
to your ordinary mind, with ‘something has just occurred.’ That
is the first.
That is the easiest one and as you can imagine,
it is not so easy. For whatever you are doing, you know not when intuition
may appear. So it requires you to be on your toes and forever be ready
to offer that gratitude.
The next thing is to dare
to live the intuitive, say the intuitive impulse. Sometimes one
is presented with an impulse
to say something to another. This is quite often an interesting landscape
to experiment. For you feel you must bring up something but you
feel
it is awkward or inappropriate or you don’t even know why you
are led to do this. And perhaps it is a vain thought of how you will
be seen.
We encourage you to experiment with this. For
much about touching intuition has to do with inhibitions. For we know
that those here are interested in touching intuition, but we know
that those here are hesitant about diving head-first into the unknown.
For you have all had experiences where that has made you cautious.
So it is about diving
into the unknown and maintaining yourself and that is the skill – maintaining
your sense of yourself, your centeredness, yet living in an unknown
time. Which is the only
thing that is guaranteed.
Is that helpful?
Q-2: Yes, thank you.
Q-3: I write right now
and sometimes in the middle of writing I say ‘Oh my god, I’m making this up’.
Can you give some guidelines about when is it that you really get
what
you are to write or when is your ego setting in?
Eikon: What is your experience like writing?
Q-3: I love it! It comes easy.
Eikon: Exactly! It comes
to you and you are the author. You are fed by Source and you are
asked to write. When it
doesn’t come and it is invented, then it is the ego. When you
can barely keep up with the flow, you know it is authentic. For flow
is the medium or mode that Spirit moves in. So learn to go with flow
as part of your process.
It is common for writers to flow a writing and
based on their needs to then go back and doctor it up. Which for some
types of writing is necessary and for some is not. It is based on
who you are communicating to and what you wish to bring.
What is your deeper question here?
Q-3: When I feel that
I’m in the flow and
I’m not doctoring it up but as I write sometimes the message
I get is ‘Oh my god’. So that’s what I’m questioning.
Yeah, I have not been stopping and I don’t even re-read what
I write. But yet sometimes I stop myself and I look what I’ve
just written and I say ‘Is this really coming through me or
am I making it up?’
Eikon: That’s an interesting way of looking
at it. Am I making it up? In other words is it coming from a repetitive
mind that’s spinning a new variation on an old theme?
And we say there are two
different modes. There is the mode of channeling the writing or
flowing it out. And we would
only stop for a moment here and say for each of you, in many of your
pursuits, you are doing what we call ‘channeling’. Which
is allowing Spirit to allow you to effortlessly do work, what you
call ‘work’. Or with very little effort.
It is simple and it may be worth nothing to anyone
else or it may be life changing, to you at another moment or to another.
What is important is not judge it or have expectations. For that gets
you back into the repetitive, comparing mind.
So we will answer your
question this way: You are channeling pure information in the writing
where you don’t
look back. So that is a clear answer. And we encourage you to bring
this information through. For it is healing for you. For you are
standing
in a bright light when you do this.
Do you have any goals of what you would like to
do with this writing?
Q-3: At the present time,
I put myself on a forty-day plan…
Eikon: What day are you at?
Q-3: Today I’m on
eleven or twelve. But the goal of this forty days is to become
consistent. And then I will just
know something beautiful will happen. Then I go from there. Whatever
will happen I decide the next step. But first is the consistency
I
want to accomplish.
Eikon: It is exactly about consistency. Consistently
being able to accept whatever comes regardless of what it is. For
once you have learned the trick of this connecting, the flow is unending.
So you could do forty days or forty minutes or four hundred days or
four thousand days and it will not matter for the flow is not counting
days.
So you know that you have something remarkable
already. But what will you do on the forty-first day?
Q-3: I continue. It’s just I feel that because
I was consistent and I’m determined not to let any of these
days go, that I feel it will just be easier and easier and easier.
Eikon: It is easy, a hundred
percent easy as long as there is no judging. For one day They may
come to you and say ‘We
would like to write silence’ and you will start arm wrestling
with them for you may not be ready to accept that they have ‘nothing’ to
say. For sometimes their message is silent or motionless.
Q-3: Then I sit for three
pages and …
Eikon: Yes, you can keep turning the pages and
keep them blank and then pick up after that. But it is that type of
flexibility that you are looking for. And you are close to achieving.
So they are very pleased.
Q-4: Are dreams and intuition connected?
Eikon: Usually not. Rarely
does one have prophetic dreams. However meaning may be revealed
in dreams which may be what
you are saying by ‘intuition’.
In the Dream State you
are processing the pressures and negotiating the life current that
you are leading. Or we would
say your ‘current life’. Feelings that were not allowed
to come out or there was no time for, or you were swept away by the
energetic experience, now have time to bloom and fulfill their energetic
pathways in sleep. And you may be able to glean meaning…
We will all be dreaming this music [playing loudly
outside] out of our bodies tonight, for we are not allowed to express
what it is doing to us. And it is quite relentless. So the pounding
will need to be processed.
It is different from intuition, which works hand
in hand with the need to act in the moment. Intuition is not timeless.
It is time-bound. It is for you in the present to participate in your
choice-making, which is your life-making. So in that way it is different.
Q-5: In recognizing an intuitive thought or feeling,
is it more like a feeling? Is it more like connected with an emotion
or is it more like a lightening bolt that just suddenly, an epiphany
kind of thing?
Eikon: Yes, ‘I will build a fourth Great
Pyramid!’. No, it is…well, let us say this.
It is different for different people. For some
are emotionally intuitive. Some hear specific, concrete thoughts.
And some have a feeling in their body that leads them toward or away
from an experience or event.
It is like lightening in all cases for lightening
is unpredictable and it appears. But the motivation to act is subtle
not like a thunderstorm. So it is sudden for it is bound to a specific
moment in your life, and only that moment is it truly valid. So it
is sudden but weightless. And you are in front of a choice.
Q-6: Is it intuition in my work when words just
come and I know what direction to go and it just feels very clear?
Eikon: Without knowing anything about your work,
we will already say yes, but please share alittle of what you do.
Q-6: I am a therapist and a coach.
Eikon: Yes, exactly. And it is interesting, for
you are a professional of what all people are to some extent in relationships
in their lives. You are a professional supporter of others. And everyone
here is in front of the need to support another at different moments
in their life. But you are exactly right, for you have touched on
a vital point. It is the ease that you are presented with the material.
However, it is the flow
that is a sign. And there is another sign which you may also recognize,
which is you don’t
really know how it’s helping. You don’t really know if what
you’re saying is so-called ‘right’. But it comes and
the other person is supported. Have you experienced this?
Q-6: I guess it just seems to flow more and more
with such ease.
Eikon: Yes, you are learning to give up the control
and trust in the processes you have trained in. For those that originated
these processes were in touch with Source and needed to create a system
where people could come in and climb the ladder back to Source at
their own pace. So they were quite clever. And Source guided them
to create these mechanisms, which you are now participating in.
But we assure you that the distance is ever-widening
and opening for how much of this you can bring in to your practice.
For you are touching the surface, turning on the tap, and beginning
to let the water flow. But there can be much more. So we encourage
you to continue and know the Source is ever unknown.
Q-6: It’s easy to
tap into the Source for others than the Source for myself.
Eikon: Yes! Do doctors operate on themselves?
Support is metaphorically symbolized by the interrelationship of others.
The process you engage in and you have learned this in, requires partnering
of a kind. The intuition for yourself would be different than the
intuition you are providing for another.
It is far more difficult. For no one is there
encouraging you to act on it or even respond. So it is far more valuable.
For each time you are offered a choice. And the choice builds something
extremely valuable in you, one of the most valuable things you can
build in your life. Trust of the unknown Source which we call faith.
Do you see the difference between that kind of intuition and the kind
you provide?
Q-6: No, actually I’m
thinking about it and faith is also important for both.
Eikon: Yes, you are jumping off the edge in either
case.
In one case you can pretend
it’s part of
a system you learned and you are alittle bit more safe. And you are
a little less judging, for you are not both the judger and the
channeler
in the same chair. So it is an excellent platform for you to build
your faith for your own opening.
Q-7: On my way over here
my intuition told me that it was time. But I don’t know what it’s
time for.
Eikon: This message is always important. We are
hitting on some universal questions tonight.
It is time for you to step into who you really
have come to be. It is time to own the Divine gifts that have been
bestowed on you. For keeping them as a hobby is very safe, but you
are well aware of the power of what you are scratching the surface
of.
In your life moments come
where it is time to take a step. You know the step in your core.
You’ve known it
since you were a child. And a moment comes when it is time for a step.
And something in you resists the step, because you say ‘I am
stepping into an unknown square on the chest board and I do not know
what it will be like.’ But you have known since your beginning
that the step was coming.
Does this ring a bell?
Q-7: I’ll think about
that.
Eikon: You maybe cannot hear the bell!
Q-7: I’m just not sure what it’s time
to do. I don’t know what the next step is and I don’t know
what I’m supposed to do.
Eikon: Each person in this world has come to what
we see as a potluck dinner. You cannot show up and just eat. You need
to bring something. Each of you have been given something and it is
special and has been only given to you.
The dinner is not a dinner
if every person brings asparagus. So the Divine plan has created
a square meal by giving
each person something unique to bring. If they say ‘I will spend
my life doing this’ rather than giving what they have asked
to bring, then they will hear this message.
It is time to step into the dinner.
Q-7: What am I supposed to bring? What am I supposed
to do?
Eikon: You have a contribution that only you can
provide. For you, for example, you do certain type of sensitive readings
for people. It is the beginning of you exploring exactly what you
bring through this sensitivity.
The next step is this: you have established a
mini-practice of doing these readings. It connects you with Spirit
and intuition. You do not know where it will lead you or how to create
a life doing this. But we are saying that as you engage with it, you
will be led to the next step. But by sitting back and doing it only
in your spare time, you are not approaching the act of giving what
you have come to give.
Q-7: Thank you, Eikon for spelling it out.
Intuition is what you bring with you. In your
dream state, you bring it with you. But it has not been made alive.
It still has the cellophane on, the shrink-wrap.
You can be conscious in your dreams, aware of
what is unfolding. And you can be conscious, aware of what is unfolding
in your life. And as the dramas of what-will-happen-next-to-me are
presented, this awareness will allow you to stay calm, peaceful and
grateful. And will eliminate avoidance energies which create unnecessary
calamities in your life.
However, it is a question of values and this is
what we are hoping to ignite in each of you tonight. To understand,
to value the subtle whisper, the gentle hint, the indication over
the attraction.
For Spirit is asking you to choose your sensitivity
and to empower it. The choices of your life become chock full of wisdom
as they are guided with sensitivity. You do not give up your individuality,
you empower it. For you embrace the fact that your life is an unknown
time. And you will take the known quantity of Spirit-support you have
to navigate you through the unknown. This is far more intelligent
than trying to predict or assume based on repetitive thought and physical
patterning.
Q-8: Eikon, you said before
that intuition is time bound. I found that interesting and in thinking
about that, if
it’s time bound in this moment then in order to receive intuition,
it seems very important to be living in this moment, living in the
now.
Eikon: Exactly! Which
means not in your imagination. Not even deeply in your thoughts.
For they are smoke and mirrors.
Your body is in the present and its true job is to anchor you here.
So the awareness of the state of your body, for example breathing
is a fact. It is neither an imagination nor an invention. Your
weight
on the Earth is a fact. Your life through this body is a fact. It
can bring you into what you call ‘the present moment’ because
it is your time bound mechanism. So there is a clue there of how
to
get to a place where intuition is fertilely received.
Q-10: Eikon, I am a guest
and I appreciate the invitation. And as this music is playing I
would like to share that
in these last couple months Spirit has been guiding me to different
places throughout the world. And as this music is playing I was
thinking
of being in Israel. And the people were saying ‘Aren’t you
afraid to be here?’ And actually Spirit was leading me to go
to different places at night and pray. To see the potential of peace.
And this music is playing
I’m thinking about
the celebration and also about the wedding that’s happening tonight.
And that those people are really joyful. And that we’re here
in this group realizing our full potential and our intuition.
The two points that came
to me were in the two places in the Middle East and also in China.
In the Middle East I
could feel the sense, especially the indigenous people living in
the desert, they had such free expression of their feelings and
intuition.
And this impelled me to buy a couple horses. And I don’t know
why I’d want to do that. But I did, because I felt it was symbolic.
It’s the year of the horse and it seemed strange to buy horses
in Egypt. But we were planning a peace conference there in the Fall,
so I thought well maybe people could ride the horses. But who cares.
And then in China I felt
a little frustrated because it’s a communist country and people
were not allowed to express their feelings.
Eikon: America is a free country and people are
not allowed to express their feelings either!
Q-10: Yes. And now coming
here tonight and not even expecting to be here in this circle.
And I’m just realizing
that everything is all right, it’s perfect.
Eikon: Yes, and you have purchased symbols of
your freedom. And that is why you needed to invest in that, for that
is where your value is. And that is a wonderful action that will pay
you back constantly. For choosing freedom and being open to the unknown
is the way to freedom and peace and alignment. It is just taking a
little step out of the ordinary. You have taken more than a few little
steps. And it is a wonderful example for all.
Know for each of you that as you bring your intuitive
guidance into action on this planet, you are contributing to the banquet
that every living being feasts on. So following your intuitive guidance
is not just to make things better for you. You are truly changing
the quality of energy on and around the Earth one drop at a time.
So we thank you all for your continued efforts.
And we thank you all for coming tonight.
Goodnight.
