Manda Scott

It's in my heart space and it's kind of rhomboidal, very elongated.

It's got a long upward point.

It's quite hot.

It vibrates at a particular tone with a particular texture.

It has a particular scent.

I have spent quite a lot of my world because I do psychic work and working with the Claire's building up my internal vocabulary and capacity to explore things.

It doesn't take that long.

It just takes a willingness to sit with the uncomfortable things.

And this is by the time I've given it my full attention, pretty darned uncomfortable.

And so the thing that I really want you to take on board is this is not about the trigger.

OK, it is never about the trigger and the story does not matter.

Please listen to me on this.

It's not about the trigger.

The story doesn't matter.

This is not about my relationship with the puppy.

This is old.

And actually, if I feel into this, it has an archaic sense to it that I think quite a lot of this is ancestral, which isn't surprising.

My father's family were semi-peasant farmers in the south of Scotland as far back as we know.

I got something like 12% Viking blood and that's because we lost the Battle of Largs in 1263.

Actually, we didn't.
