The Art of
Automatic Writing
By Wayne Hatford | Submitted On June 29, 2011
So that an automatic writing session may be accomplished, it is first
necessary to establish an etheric link. The actual mechanics are fairly
straightforward, mostly involving creating the time and space for it to
occur. To that end, I have designed a ritual whose purpose is to clear
the air vibrationally, anchor myself in the moment and call forth the
necessary guides and technicians, those on the Other Side who can help
to effect communication. Yes, this is one time when it does take more
than two to tango! We, meaning the scribe and the soul essence in
question, need helpers, those who hold the 'wires' and plug us in, much
like telephone operators once did in the early 20th century.
During each session the power resides at the point of my pen as there is
a force present, separate from my own, that is moving it. Of course, I
am also involved but have set aside some of my own energy in order to
allow the entity I am channeling to come through. At certain times the
writing is very fast-paced. At others, it's slow and deliberate. I may
hear the words in my head as I write or I may not. However, all that
does not matter.
What is important is that I'm able to get out of the way to a certain
extent so that communication can take place. In fact, I am in a partial
trance, my "NOW" focused solely on what is before me. Time seems to
disappear, folding into itself. I do not consciously know what I have
written until later when I transcribe it. Very little editing is
required. What comes through, therefore, is exactly what wants and/or
needs to at that particular moment.
Interestingly, a rather unique phenomenon occurs each time I do this
work. I yawn once going in, which is to say at the beginning of the
invocation/clearing process, also upon coming out of the experience,
while re-grounding. I interpret this as a physical manifestation of the
joining of forces necessary to make such an event take place. There's
always a certain amount of merging going on in any channeling work which
requires a great deal of trust, on both parts. The yawns are just a
device, to let me know exactly when the merge begins and ends, analogous
to a barometer. Let me assure you, they have nothing to do with feeling
tired or bored. In fact, just the opposite is true; I am always fully
alert when I channel, perhaps even more so than at other times in my
waking life!
Automatic writing should never be done for a lark. If you are inclined
to pursue it, make sure you have good reasons for doing so, for example,
your own or other people's edification and evolution. That said, there
are also a couple of other cautionary notes that I would like to sound.
First, make sure you cleanse the room vibrationally before you begin.
Second, it's important to see yourself grounded, and 'in the Light.'
Only then may you call forth the essence of the individual you want to
communicate with and ask them to be present. Best if they sign in too;
it's always good to confirm who, exactly, is speaking to you. Actually
from my point of view it is mandatory!
Here is how the phenomenon of automatic writing was explained to me by
someone in spirit. "To effect this means of communication, we on this
side first have to find and then wrestle with a ripple in the space and
time continuum. Once achieved, we pass the energy through the Veil and
down a focus chute, working as a unit. All this must occur sequentially
as well as concurrently in order for my thoughts to be able to connect
with the tip of the pen in your hand. The energy used to channel is like
tension in a wound-up clock spring, completely available until all of a
sudden there's no more torque. As a result, every automatic writing
session has a shelf life, able to last for only a certain amount of
time."
