Sacred Scribe – Your Guide to Automatic Writing
by Angela Levesque
Many people want to increase their intuitive abilities. Automatic writing is a perfect introduction into intuition development; a great way for those who have not yet developed their clairvoyance and clairsentience enough to access the universal intelligence and their spirit guides. As a caution, while automatic writing can be used to channel spirits and other beings, for novices we will keep to communication with your higher self and your spirit guides. Here’s how you do it.
Grounding
The first part of the process is to find a quiet spot where you can be left undisturbed for a chunk of time. This is a private space that you feel safe, calm and centered. Once that has been attained you can begin the process of grounding. Grounding is a very important part of channeling, even if it is your intention to simple access the wisdom of your higher self. Grounding accomplishes two specific things – it brings your awareness and attention into the present moment, and it also establishes a connection between the spirit world and the world of matter.
So sit at a desk, in a comfortable high back chair, with your feet firmly planted on the ground and begin by taking three deep cleansing breaths. Draw the breath deep into the belly and exhale slowly through the mouth. This allows any stress and negativity to be removed out of the body. Then simply begin breathing in through the nose and out through the nose, finding your own rhythm and pace. Once you feel calm and centered imagine that roots of a large tree extend from the base of your spine and flow deep into the center of the earth. You can also imagine more roots flowing from the base of your feet into the earth’s center as well. Spending a few moments holding this visual in your mind’s eye until you feel connected and centered.
Intention & Protection
In this calm and mindful place, it is time to set your intention and create your boundaries. This is very important. Keep your intention positive, in the present moment and say it out loud. State that it is your intention to receive guidance from your higher self/spirit guides and/or guardian angels on a specific matter. State that you would like to receive this guidance with clarity, honesty and integrity, in a way that honors you and your highest good. Ask this with gratitude in your heart and ask for protection in this matter from your guides and angels that are beings of only the purest light and highest intention. You may also wish to visualize a blue egg around yourself as you request the guidance and protection from your spirit helpers.
