Sorcery

Since I started using Reiki I have already seen too many ‘coincidental’ healings to know that it is the truth and the way forward for me. However, it’s none too surprising that there have been many a jokey comment about witchery from close family, tinged with a slight element of fear of the unknown.  Particularly from my husband, who I know has been feeling the energy passing between us night after night.  ‘A few years ago they’d’ve burned you at the stake’ they laugh.  Their comments about the 'spookiness' of it all made me slightly sad because I know it is a wonderful gift from the Divine, but I couldn’t find the words to reassure them and to convey this to them, because it defies understanding.

This morning one of my daughters was listening to the car radio on the school run and she said ‘Isn’t it amazing how Ed Sheeran can record that song in a studio hundreds of miles away and that we can listen to it on the radio all around the world? I bet a hundred and fifty years ago no one would have thought it possible’.  My tongue in cheek reply? ‘A hundred and fifty years ago they’d’ve thought it was witchcraft’. She got the point.
