Cassadega

Near my town is a place called Cassadega which is a Spiritualist Camp. Its a 116 year old community filled with mediums who offer you communication with the spirit world through seance or individual readings. At their church service, which I attended with my beau, there is a room of people--smaller than a regular church as to be expected. The purest most peaceful music plays that harmonizes with the rhythms of your body--it has an extreme calming effect. It was near Easter and their were tons of Easter lilies in potted plants, each plant dotted with a dozen blossoms. Huge caribbean blue curtains hung with a picture on the back wall of a tilted sunflower open and honest. After everyone is settled, a few words of prayer are spoken and then a guided meditation. Then the medium came into everyone's vibration and gave them a 2-3 minute reading. They asked for a 5$ donation at the door.

For my reading, it was very personal. He talked to me about my grandmother who has been gone for 14 years. He said she had her hands on my shoulders, telling me it was okay and that she was at peace in the after life. Ever since she had past I was worried about her in the after life. In her final days she had her legs amputated. After she passed the movie the Sixth Sense came out to which the idea came to mind that ghosts aren't hideous, scary creatures, but people who were looking for help in the afterlife, help crossing over. I was only nine years old, and I thought that if people saw my granny, with no legs, in the misery of her final days, they wouldn't help her, they would turn her away. This is an idea and a thought I have kept with me since I was nine years old (and I'm now almost 23). The medium told me that she was telling me everything was alright and that there was no pain, and that she was okay where she was at.

Its strange to be told these things. I don't know if I know the validity in it, but it feels right and it felt good to be told these things. I cried (I'm a terribly emotional person so of course I cried) during the reading, it was emotional. But I'm skeptical, of course.

I wanted to share this because it really is inspiring a lot of my work. I want to use a lot of natural stones, because of the energy they hold. A lot of my inspirations are now esoteric, mystical, mysterious things.

Thanks for reading,
