I figured it out

When I hear other psychopomps talk about their work, they talk about seeing the being and talking to it, convincing it to pass over or connecting with past issues and working them out. But my work is all . . . feel. I feel the attachment. I say a greeting, and I may see and "hear" a response, but not often. Usually I just connect with the light, feel the unconditional love that awaits on the other side, and feel the being leave me. I am not a wordy person and am especially not good at persuasion.

And that's what I figured out: my "skill" is that connecting with the light. I "channel" the goodness and joy that awaits. It's okay that I don't do words.

The nasty being that hollered at me about dabbling was an "incarnation" of my insecurity. I don't do things the way others do. And that's okay.

A bridge without attachments

My work situation now allows me time to resume my practice. This was made known to me: Recently I didn't feel like myself-- dark, cranky, lacking joy. On the second day, I remembered Rossco's post about attachments. I sat, met my guide, and connected with the light. I did not have any visual or auditory awareness of the attachment; it was more of a bodily/kinesthetic awareness. I showed it the pure love of the light and apparently it agreed to move on. After clearing the first attachment, I felt another "grabbing me around the legs." When I acknowledged it, I felt some nasty being yelling at me. It was angry that I was dabbling. I replied that I was offering all I had at the moment. We had a peaceful parting. I was able to remove the energetic attachments. I felt much better.

I now start each work day by sitting and making myself available.
