Welcome to the SAGB!

Got my ticket in reception. Smiled at ‘Arthur’.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle gazed at me from the cover photograph of his book displayed on a shelf.

Well, I felt a pull coming from his picture. Sometimes, I make connections like that.

Welcome to the SAGB!

The Spiritual Association of Great Britain, 11 Belgrave Rd, near Victoria Station, London.

That was in 2017. The room where they held public demonstrations of mediumship had a piano by the door and rows of seats facing a standing desk for the medium.

December & Christmas — my saddest time of the year.

Would my little brother in spirit come through today? Would he leave me a message to cheer me up?

In choosing a seat by a large window, my field of vision registered a green mass with pops of colours.

🎄 My! Most marvellous Christmas tree I had ever seen!

It was likely a real conifer. Maybe a spruce.

The tree was artfully bedecked with large golden baubles, red ribbons, angel figurines, tinsel, and a silver star on top.

This evergreen conifer was captivating.

It wasn’t just the beauty of each single ornament. One could sense the love and care of the hands that had decorated it.

The Christmas tree was aglow and emanated a magical energy.

It had absorbed the higher vibration of the hands who adorned it.

Moreover, it stood in a room filled with high vibration from medium prayers and communication with departed souls.

I kept admiring the tree, wanting to take a picture of it. Yet, I couldn’t bring myself to take a picture.

Anyway, a picture couldn’t have captured what I felt with all my senses. How could you capture a sense of comfort and reassurance?

So, that’s how and where I saw the most magical Christmas tree.

An elegant Christmas tree

Any plant can be a Christmas tree in my imagination.

Like this ornamental pomegranate shrub pictured above, gracing the courtyard of a former Inn in Malaga, Spain.

Bearing fruit and foliage, it would make an elegant Christmas tree. Just the way it is.

Its pomegranates resemble decorative baubles in shape and, with their red skin, stand out from the oval and glossy green foliage. PrĂȘt-Ă -briller!

Just add water, and its grace will keep on giving.
