Channeling Transcript

Me: Do astrological signs really influence our nature or personalities?

Erik: Yeah, the time you’re born, when you’re born, actually influences your personalities. And people forget to ask this: The pre—

Jamie (to Erik): Are you saying preconception?

Erik: The preconception period also defines your personality.

Me: What do you mean by that?

Erik: How your parents were behaving, what they were thinking, what they were going through as they were making that egg or that sperm, and what they’re emotional state or balance was during conception. That helps make the foundation of who you are. It’s not just conception on.

Me: Well, how do these astrological signs wield their influence on us?

(Pause as Jamie listens to Erik for a while.)

Jamie (excitedly): Oh my god, that was the most brilliant definition I’ve ever heard! 

Me: Aw, good job, Sweetie!

Jamie: He floors me! I love it! I love learning something new from him every time!

Me: Aw!

Jamie: Okay, so he describes it really simply. Like you go into a room and the furniture is arranged a certain way. Let’s say the couches are turned to face against the wall. You can’t sit down on them, and you’re looking at the backs of the couches, and you’re born into this kind of environment. It would affect how you are in your environment, how you react to this space that’s given to you.

Me: Oh, okay.

Erik: Yeah. So, let’s say that you were born into a room that had a ton of chairs.

Me: Okay,

Erik: A ton of chairs, but like no bed, no nothing.  The placement of each piece of furniture and what kind of furniture it is and what color it is will affect your mood. But it will still affect you as an adult. Let’s say you walk into a room and there’s nothing to sit on.

Me: Mmm.

Erik: You’d make do. You’d adapt, but you would change what your likes and dislikes were so that you could adjust to the space.

Me: Ah! I see.

Erik: So, where the planets are, think of that as pieces of furniture—where they are in space and what kind of energy they’re holding for what kind of cycle—we call that our year. That is all going to affect who you are when you come into this world and breathe into it. It’s not about the building of the baby, because you’d think your true moment of entry is conception, but that’s not true because you not interacting with environment. You’re only interacting with Mommy inside the womb.

Wow, it’s been a long time since I heard the word “mommy” come out of his mouth. Sounds nice.

Erik: So, it’s that moment of air when you come out and you touch environment. That’s when it’s documented, and that’s when we can find a correlation with it reflecting on how you would be.

I’m not sure I understand, but as the long list of famous dead people collects dust on the desk in front of me, I think to myself, ‘One of the blog members will make sense of this.’

Me: How cool!

Jamie: I’ve never heard it explained in terms of furniture placement!

Me: Well, Erik doesn’t sit on chairs. It always had to be a countertop or the back of a sofa.

Jamie (laughing): Seriously! You know, he IS on the back of my couch again!

Be sure you mark your calendars for the Channeling Erik Weekend of Enlightenment in Austin, TX on March 2nd through the 4th. It looks like we’re going to have a big group, and it should be so much fun! Details about accommodations, the program schedule, etc. will be posted as soon as Jamie let me know.

    It’s so great all this information… I find it so interesting…
    The more I read from different channels, past and present, the more I find pieces of the puzzle that make up life and spirituality… So awesome… thanks again, all three of you…

      Your so very welcome, Pete.

    How cool, Shree! Truth be told, I didn’t know what the heck he was talking about. Now, with these two explanations, I’m starting to get it. You know, if we start that Channeling Erik Radio show, you’d be an excellent regular host if you’re interested.

    • Shree

      Yes, most definitely .. I would be honored !

      • http://www.channelingerik.com Elisa Medhus, MD

        Awesome! I think we’re gonna discuss on a conference call after thanksgiving, but I’ll let everyone know on a post well in advance!

  • http://www.channelingerik.com Elisa Medhus, MD

    Wow, rotten eggs and spoiled milk!! That’s pretty gross Stan Da Man. (heehee)

    Oh, Erik would LOVE it if you channeled him! Have you memorized his voice? He’s very chatty and has a playful energy that’s easy to recognize.

    On the subject of astrology, I probably know so little it could fit in a thimble and still float. That makes it difficult to word questions in the best possible way to ensure accurate responses. Can you help me formulate this question for you?

    • Tomatoseed

      Elisa, I am pretty sure I have Erik’s personality down, and probably the voice too. I know he has been around my room lately, haha, but I need to relax and not be so fearful so that I can really hear or see him.

      I’ll go on a little tangent for a moment–I have been trying to astral project, but I am really scared that I will see some scary spirit as soon as I pop outta my body, so what I do sometimes is tell my spirit guides to “phone” Erik, see if he is available, and if he is, tell him to meet me on the other side if he wants. I know that in the afterlife he is busy, that is why I ask my spirit guides first because I think they would know if it was an appropriate time to contact him. Maybe when you’re ready, Elisa, you could learn to astral project and possibly see him! (if you haven’t already, I dunno.) Astral projection is intense stuff though, you really have to be mentally ready to try. As soon as I feel myself leaving my body I always either cry or I chicken out, lol! You have to be calm if you want to AP.

      Ok, where was I..Oh, well in regards to astrology, there are the Western and Eastern(Vedic in this case) types. Your natal chart is a chart that shows where the planets are when you are born, not just the sun. So you could look in the newspaper and see that because you were born on say, June 12th, that you are a Gemini. But the day and time of birth will determine what sign and “house” your moon, mercury, venus, etc. is in.

      Anyway, Eastern astrology follows a different formula than Western. So, I could give two astrologers my birth time and my chart would look entirely different depending if it is done Western or Eastern. So, in Western, I could be a Cancer with the moon in Capricorn, mercury in Cancer, my “rising sign” in Pisces. But in Eastern I could be a Gemini with mercury in Gemini, Moon in Saggitarius, my rising sign Aquarius. Those are very different signs.

      So I just wonder if one style(eastern or western)is more valid? Or what each style’s significance is? Like what is the meaning?

      Hey, I want to say that I love your blog. I appreciate so much and want to share it with as many open minded people as I can. It really provides a lot of comfort to many and helps raise the consciousness of this world immensly. You should be really proud of yourself!

        I would love to astral project and I actually bought several books to try to learn! But the PTSD needs to be healed first, I think. That’s a huge block. I’m doing the EMDR and plan to do the IADC after that. I have seen and hugged Erik a few times. He comes to me in dreams and has also come to me physically, so it’s been so cool. Still, I’d like to be able to visit him any time I want.

        So I was born April 21, 1955 in Galveston, TX 1:01 AM. What’s the difference between the Eastern and Western versions of my chart. Anyhoo, I’ll put that question on the list. If I don’t get to it, we can ask him on one of the blogtalk radio shows!

      • Tomatoseed

        Oh yes, I think the PTSD would need to be dealt with first. Myself, I am still too dang afraid to AP because I have such a wild imagination…I worry that some spirit will decide to play a prank on me and come as the black alien monster from the movie Alien(movie scared the crap out of me as a child) lol!!! Of course, nothing can hurt you in the spirit world as long as you walk in love and ask for protection!

        I read the post where you talked about how Erik came and hugged you-it was so beautiful and moving! I think it is so cool that he comes to you in dreams too. Yes, we visit all sorts of people in dreams, and they visit us! Thanks for touching on my topic in question. Would be interesting to hear about it on the radio show or blog!

        Blessings!
