Spiritualism Good Old Fashioned Seance

Spiritualism Good Old Fashioned Seance
Seance. That's a word you don't hear very much anymore. At the turn of the last century, and prior, it was all the rage. Mary Todd Lincoln was a participant in some seances that were held to try and connect with her deceased son. Houdini was another famous person who tried his hand at it in an attempt to communicate with his mother.

Today, in some circles, this practice is still going strong, as in Spiritualist churches for example. Outside of parlor room entertainment, the practice seems to have fallen into disfavor by New Agers. Instead we have "channeling" done by people who claim to have the "gift." The channeling usually takes place in private, the message written down, and then passed on to others who might be interested in what is being relayed.

The difference between seances and channeling is that we don't have the props of the seance, the dimly lit room with people sitting around a table, usually holding hands. I've been to some channeling sessions where the lights were bright as day and people sat in chairs watching the channel do their thing as if we were at a poetry reading.

Many of the voices coming through the channels nowadays are not exclusively those of the dead, but may also be from entities from other star systems who may not necessarily be dead in the conventional sense of the word. They telepathically deliver messages to the world at large about current times and what they hold for the people of the planet.

These messages are usually about Ascension and Earth changes and changing frequencies, etc. Of course, you could always pay the channel for a private session if you're inclined to know about health, wealth, and relationships. The big three unknowns the ego is fixated on. At a seance, the message is usually directed to individuals concerned about the well being of departed loved ones.

Montague Keen and his wife Veronica are something of a throwback to the heyday of seances, in a nostalgic sort of way, almost like looking into a timeline of the past. There's a subtle quaintness about their messages, not filled with the sometimes outrageous promises of some modern day channels.

Veronica is a medium who channels her husband routinely. He was born in 1925 and passed on in 2004. His messages are very much in keeping with other channels, concerning Ascension and 2012, though there is that unmistakable old school quality about them. In the seance I listened to, you can easily envision Sir Arthur Conan Doyle sitting at the table.
