Water Holds the Memory
H-A Through Gilly Wilmot 11.6.00

"You are in the process of becoming, you are absolutely where you need to be."   H-A

Water is the guardian of memories and a great conductor of cosmic and celestial energies. The human body consists of 70% water and through understanding the true nature of this element on a spiritual level, we can become transformers and healers of ourselves and beyond to Earth itself. The part played by dolphins and whales, and the two energy forces: gravity and time

Before I have the honour to dialogue with you, I would like to return to the element of water. I have mentioned the river, the river in yourselves that flows very fast at the moment, taking you to the great ocean. When the river flows very fast, it dodges and weaves itself around the rocks and flows past the banks. There is a great momentum and it carries much with it-leaves, little creatures. When the river reaches the great ocean, it is then changed totally, it is still water but it is part of the whole ocean, it is part of many rivers joining that ocean. So, there is a need for a great settling, a great stillness, so that each river that enters the ocean can contribute its own essence, to be part of a balanced whole.

I speak metaphorically of yourselves as rivers, each a different river flowing into the ocean of the one. But I also speak to you of water itself, water being a great conductor of spiritual energies. I have spoken to you before of water spirit coming to Earth, that water would be the guardian of earthly memories. This was the contract between water and Earth, that the great oceans would hold the history of this planet before humankind set foot upon Earth. Water would hold all the memory of its development since inception. And this meant that, as guardian of memories. It would work with Earth spirit to know when it was time for a letting go and the shift of a group's memory.

There was one such time, for example, many thousands of years ago, when there needed to be a new beginning, a new phase, a time when it no longer served a great continent to be in a state of imbalance, it could no longer move forward in that way; and yet it could not quite forget its great and golden beginning. And so the water spirit enabled through her love and compassion a covering of the great continent you call Atlantis, embracing it and allowing a healing, allowing those memories to subside, to go into a deeper place for transformation. For memories, my friends, can be transformed, they are quite energetic in themselves. A memory can be changed into another vibration, a new stream, a new vibration.

Added to the memory that the great oceans can hold for the planet, you yourselves are watery beings. Indeed many of you spent a great deal of time in the ocean before incarnating into a human body, so as to understand that element. Your bodies are made up largely of water, and so you also hold memories; you hold memories of this life and other lives in this watery part of yourselves. Sometimes, of course, you hold too much, you become bloated and distended, you become waterlogged; your emotions become overblown, your water too much, and you can almost sink beneath the waves. Now is the time for you to release consciously this collection of memories, allowing them to be transformed. You can do this through meditation, but you can also work in collaboration with water itself, with a river, with a simple shower of water, or a glass of water. When you communicate with water spirit, you ask that that memory of pain or fear is transferred from the water in your own body into the glass of water and through you, or into that river or that shower; and water spirit will hear you, there will be a transference.

One day, this will become an easier way for people to heal. You see it was no accident that 2000 years ago that teacher immersed his students, his followers, in water; he was enabling them to be born anew, in a very real and profound way. But he was also enabling them to relate to another aspect of the water in their body upon Earth.

When you are a clear pool, when you have nothing in it like old memories, pains, fears and so on to cloud it, you become a very clear conductor for your spirit, you become a walking, talking, living channel without even being conscious of it. Each time you breathe, each moment you are alive, you are channelling your spirit through clear water. You can then communicate, channel your spirit through onto this plane. You can connect with water spirit in your pools, in your rivers and in your great oceans, as a conductor of spiritual energies.

Now when I speak of spiritual energies, I refer to those spiritual energies that are very cosmic, very celestial. Because there are many planetary spheres, starry systems, that are connected to this planet who have great love for what is here and who is here. Very often they do not incarnate; they try to communicate through guides. But they have to find another way for their love, for their vibration to enter this plane. How do they do this? They do it through the water on your planet, the great conductor between heaven and Earth.

the sound of the dolphin enables the water in that person to move…those depressed souls come out uplifted.

In the great oceans, you have beloved creatures who are very much in contact with other planes, with other planets, with other stars. I speak of course of the dolphin kingdom and of the whale kingdom. Through the sounds that they make, they are in direct communication with those spheres. Sonar is about sound and vibration passing through the water. When human beings enter water to be with these creatures, not only do they receive healing from the creatures themselves, but they receive a vibratory healing from those other spheres. The vibration that passes through the water, through the sound of the dolphin and the whale, enters the body, encircles the body, enabling the water in that person to move, to move, to release. So those depressed souls who enter the water come out enlightened, uplifted.

In times to come, I believe there will be greater understanding of how to work with this element, with the spirit of water. But in the meantime I offer you this idea with which to experiment and play. Above all, be willing to acknowledge the watery part of yourselves and how much you hold within you. This is not a time to hold on to anything. It is a time when, if you are able in your moments of uncertainty, to be with it and not strive to change it, but to accept it; then the opportunity for that which you wish will come more easily, will come without pain.

For many thousands of years it has been important for humankind to have a framework of certainty, a framework which meant it they knew which way to go at all times, perhaps sometimes to be told. But we are all moving beyond that, moving beyond the need to be rigid and fixed, into a time of flow. Until you stand on the edge of the abyss in uncertainty, you will never go into the unknown; and until you go into the unknown you will remain in ignorance. As you stand teetering on the edge with the subatomic structure in your body moving, that is your transforming opportunity. You can step back from the edge into a kind of safety which is illusion, or you can allow yourself to fall, to enter an unknown stream of energy and, at that point, it becomes known to you. When you are standing very much on the edge, you feel the tiredness, the effort, the struggle of not quite being able to let go, the struggle of push-pull: do I step over the edge, or do I step back? This is the moment to allow yourself to go where your spirit has already opened the door. Your spirit has already invited you into a new way, but your personality wants to stay close to the familiar, to Earth. Your emotions have not quite absorbed the spiritual leap, your mental processes have not yet integrated the experiences; and so there is a struggle and it is difficult to keep a balance, although on one level you have already taken the step.

Those of us who work on the inner planes never leave you alone. But we do honour the fact that there are times in your growth when you need to enter into an initiation; and in that initiation, the most important part of it is that you find and walk and be in your own power. If you think that there is someone there with you, it is all too easy to say: should I go this way or that way, here, there?

Until you stand on the edge of the abyss in uncertainty you will remain in ignorance.

When you feel that you are alone, you have your own self, your own strength, and your own wisdom, to make that decision. This is when we step back from you; we are still there but perhaps not quite so obviously with you.

Many years ago, initiations were carried out in a very physical way. Today, you undergo initiations on a very different level, through meeting the challenges of life, within your relationships to yourself, to your dear ones and to the planet as a whole. This type of experience is no less challenging, and it can be a life/death process. Those ancient initiations sometimes led to a physical death, when perhaps you made one choice and not another choice. You were living in a different particular tradition, with a different set of rules concerning spiritual practice.

Now there is another sort of life/death process. It is not a physical death, but it can be a death of hopes, of dreams, a setback in that you have to start all over again. It is neither bad nor good. It is as it is. But I am saying to you that at these times, living and dying, almost each day, be prepared to go with that 'death', not to hold on, not to grasp. If you hold beautiful flowers tightly and grasp them to yourself because they are so beautiful, you will crush them. Your hands need to be open to everything. So, dear ones, you are in the process of becoming. You are absolutely where you need to be. All of you…and now I would like to answer your questions.

Hello, H-A. Could I ask you whether you have any advice on how to use the vibrational changes in my healing work and how to reach for the patterns that cause the illnesses in people with whom I work?

First of all I would suggest that you simplify your work. You are studying several things, are you not? You have many, many dishes to take from. On one level this is very admirable and helpful, but it can confuse. When you are working with these patterns that you speak of, it is important that you decide which method, which technique to follow at any one time with a human being. Because when working in a vibrational way with humans, you can get a confusion of energies, a confusion of frequencies. When you tune into one of your patients, you are tuning into the frequencies of their being. If we think of this in terms of sound, you are tuning into their sonic being, their sonic framework, and so you need to be very sharp, very alert and very focussed. And when you have identified where the imbalance is in their pattern, you need to consider very carefully how to bring that pattern into balance and use only one type of frequency. Do you understand what I say? Yes

Otherwise it would be like listening to a number of different radio stations playing different things, speaking, music, you are bombarded. Do not mix your remedies together in that way. What is happening now, is that healing can be given on a much more subtle level. I have spoken before, through Tony, extensively about Homoeopathic healing, so I will not go into that today, but it is important that you as healers are able to bring your fellow beings into alignment in a more subtle way, you are able to, as you work on yourselves, to bring these new energies, to realign yourselves, to come more to a point of wholeness, so that when you are working with another, you need to do very little, because being with them, standing with them, the light of your own spirit will convey healing, will re-pattern that person. So like your homoeopathy, it is very fine in essence, it is a dilution. The more powerful you become the more carefully you use this energy in healing and this applies in whatever method you use, it does not matter if you are using homoeopathy or acupuncture, you need to be very much more aware that you have much more power and you need to use it sparingly, so it is all about less being more.

The thing I still find very hard to understand is that energetically, we can make changes instantly, or we can be in our power and surrender to divine will, knowing that things should be going in a certain direction. But in our physical time scale it feels as if things can be very slow, things can get stuck or things cannot happen. I just don't understand why that happens, why can things not happen immediately?

But they do, they do. They do change when you think them. But let me say to you that time is an energy. When you decide to incarnate onto planet Earth, you enter into two forces of energy that are around and within your planet. Those two forces are time and gravity. Gravity is an energetic force that holds you down in the physical world. That is one way you give yourself the discipline to be here.

The other energy that you enter is time. This enables you to have some way of looking at your journey. There is in a sense, no past or future, there is only the present. But you have to get some kind of idea, some kind of structure to this incarnational journey. It is most helpful to look back, to learn in order to help you move forward, and so you need a framework and this framework is what you call linear time - it is an energy stream that you enter. Time and gravity work together to enable human beings to live in such a way that they can study in Earth's schoolroom and learn to understand their journey. And so we come now to you and your impulses to move beyond stuckness. On the one hand you know you are a free spirit, you have in your water, in your being, an awareness that time does not exist. Yet at the same time, you have to fit yourself, your experiences, your wishes into this linear time scale. It is rather like, as I said before, you have made a mental leap and your physicality is waiting to catch up.

When you incarnate onto planet Earth, you enter into two forces of energy…time and gravity.

It is the same with you now; your spirit has gone before to make a choice. The rest of you is waiting, as it were, to catch up. You are in a physical body and physical existence can create little problems. Misfortune is to do with physical existence, spiritually it does not occur. So, if we think about your own life now you can see in your mind's eye what you wish, can you not? So, in that reality it is happening, you are working in that dimension now on one level, but there is a need for the physical to catch up. It is like your clients, you may jump very quickly to an intuitive sense of what is wrong with them, but you have to wait, do you not, for your client to unfold their own story because you know it would be quite wrong to force them. It is the same with you, you are working and forming yourself in another subtle reality and it will happen because you are creating with your mind energy.

Remember my friend that this needs to be done with the mind of your heart. It is not just mental imaging, it is the heart-mind experiencing and creating. When you try to deal with it, simply by mental imaging, it is a little cold, a little exact; it does not have the wisdom of the heart-mind. But when your heart-mind creates, it allows an understanding, a compassion for you to work within this time constraint.

Yes, but I find it a difficulty because my spirit, emotions and personality are often ready to go with it, and I am then anchored down by outer circumstances.

Ah, I am going to suggest to you that this means that your personality is not always then being truly in tune with your spirit. When circumstances seem to be adverse, it may mean that your spirit wishes you to wait a little while, that there is something different and more appropriate very close by. It is spirit'' way of saying this no longer serves you.

Life is ever changing, life is movement, life is not static; so be flexible in the same way, as a flower is flexible. A flower has many petals, it has many petals folded intricately; but those petals, when the sun shines upon it, need to open together in balance. You cannot pull one petal open and expect the others to follow, it does not happen like that; in fact the whole flower falls to pieces. You need to go to the very highest perspective and to ask and pray for understanding, that you fully under-stand the whole nature of what you are doing. It means looking at the centre of the flower, at each petal, when the flower is closed, when the flower is open, at all possibilities. But do not rush this; work with time…Thank you.
