On the stage was a large mirror, seemingly hanging in midair without any support. I could see the mirror, but it did not reflect anything that it should have. \u00a0I kept watching and after a while things started to emerge from the mirror. The first things I saw were fountain pens and drawing pencils, but as soon as they emerged, they evaporated. After more objects emerged and evaporated, I knew I must respond to what emerged in some way. As I did this, the objects no longer evaporated but stayed present. The pencils and pens reappeared, and I welcomed them. Then words emerged and I welcomed them as well. Then musical notes. I tried to hum what they seemed to be forming. \u00a0Then ideas appeared, in the form of illustrated sketches. Some ideas I did not grasp, and some seemed to be related to different things I am working on. \u00a0As this went on, I became more excited and as the session ended, I felt this excitement continuing. It was if I had now a scrying mirror but operating in reverse and bringing things into my awareness in this extraordinary way. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Comments or questions are always welcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ruass\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have acupuncture on Wednesdays and very often I cannot think of anything better as a thought for the day than the autonomous vision I experience.
