In working with Feng Shui and
healing earth energies I never cease to be amazed at the synchronicity and
coincidence of events in my many every day experiences. I would like to
share a recent story.
At the end of May I
held an "Introduction to Feng Shui" course at a venue near Boston in
Lincolnshire. The format of my courses is very open and informal, and I
normally start the day by asking each attendee to light a candle, chose an Angel
card, and introduce themselves to the group and say what they expect to get out
of the day. On this particular course there was a mother and daughter.
The daughter introduced herself saying that she had come along with her mother
for a day out together, and she was an Engineer by trade. She then very
politely explained that if there wasn't some form of proof in the form of a
formula, equation or explanation for this theory and philosophy, she would find
it hard to accept it's effectiveness. Her Angel card was "Integrity".
The Oxford Dictionary defines this as moral uprightness, honesty, wholeness.
The Angel Card book suggests "Stand up for what you believe in. Act in
congruence with your values and follow through on your commitments". I
silently thought I would have my work cut out that day!!!
The day went very
well in it's normal format, and as it turned out to be a beautiful sunny
afternoon we decided to have the final session in the garden. So we had a
break to get some refreshment, and by "coincidence" the lady who had organised
the event had an unexpected visitor. He was one of her clients who turned
up on a Yamaha 1300cc motorbike. He had just casually called by to leave
something with her, and curiously asked what the meeting was about. She
briefly explained the subject of the day. As we sat down to reconvene he
introduced himself to the group, and told them he had a Feng Shui consultation
about 2 years previously. At the time he was focusing on his work and
wanted a salary increase. He lately secured a promotion and an "obscene"
pay rise!!! He then went on to say how much he admired all the people
there who had given up their day to learn about the subject and emphasised that
his experience in working with Feng Shui had proved it to be a very powerful
tool of transformation. I asked him if he would share his date of birth
with us as we had just briefly discussed the subject of Nine Star Kiology as a
group. He freely gave us this information which enabled me to give a brief
character description and suggest the energies of the year he was probably
experiencing. It was amazing how positively he kept agreeing with my
analogy. I was silently thanking the Angels for sending him!!!
As he jovially went
on his way, I very light heartedly said "I'll send my Angels with you on that
bike!" At the end of the day I mentioned to the organiser how amazing it
was that whenever you needed proof it appeared. We had also both noticed
he had some Angels wings embroidered on his leather jacket!!! To finish
this part of the story, the young lady who questioned the subject earlier in the
day had taken a deep interest more and more throughout the day, especially after
the positive input from our visitor.
A few weeks later I
called the lady who had organised the event, and during our conversation she
told me that a couple of weeks after the course, our unexpected visitor had been
involved in a very near miss accident on his bike. I have since spoken to
him and he explained there was a group of about ten bikers travelling at speed
on a joy ride along the country lanes. A couple of the bikes in front had
noisy exhausts, and unfortunately spooked two horses and riders to cause an
incident. A car had stopped to try to help, and as our motorbike friend
came over the brow of the hill within a split second he saw the scene and had to
take desperate evasive action. He braked and skidded the bike,
experiencing his head banging on his arm and struggling to avoid a major
catastrophe. When he came to a halt all his friends were expecting the
worst, and were amazed when he just stood up without any obvious injuries.
His crash helmet was split, his ankle was sprained and he had two small burns on
his arms. No one else was injured, but his bike was a complete right off.
In fact when the insurance loss adjusters saw it they confirmed there was not a
single piece which was salvageable. When the group regained their senses
he got on one of his friend's motorbikes to get home. He said that when it
was happening all he could hear were the words "I'll send my Angels with you on
that bike!"
So thank you Angels
for all the unseen help you give us whenever we need it, during minor and major
crises ...
