oh Sol you're asking me to do something that's actually quite difficult, given where i am at in the writing of the current novel (which is where the central character takes the shadow into himself that he spends the rest of the story freeing himself from)

I know we all have/carry subpersonalities. archetypes, and entities that influence our behaviour, guides and guardians eg in my case a silver dragon that two friends of mine have seen though I haven't and a big cat (sometimes a tiger sometimes a black panther) that i feel especially when i dance. i have a feeling the being/energy that you and your wife saw is connected to the being/energy that protected you in the hill and the wall incidents you described last Sunday.

Researching walk-ins may be helpful given how completely you have retracked your life, though your NDE might have had the same effect as a walk-in. It may have been one or both that redirected you.

AND this is all about phenomena. One of the two gifts I received in the long morass that is Kerry's interview with James of wingmakers was the reminder of how we humans avoid the void that is in us all, yet to realize who we truly are I believe we do have to come to terms with the emptiness/unmanifest. In other words you have received tremendous gifts in the experience you had today and in the incidents you described on Sunday. Enjoy them, be grateful for them, know that some of us (ie me) would be envious if that was an acceptable emotion(!) and don't become so attached to them that you stop looking beyond them.

Hey, how I like to be asked to preach!!!
Hope this is useful.

love to all
PS I meant also to say something about taking it to heart being more important than defining it with the head and I am a fine one to talk!
