This? Everyone is getting ready to celebrate Halloween, and yesterday I saw my first Christmas decorations. Outside the supermarket, three young men lit lanterns around pine trees. Already? I thought, then panicked when I asked myself, 'Have I bought everything yet? I took a deep breath and smiled. No need to rush. And as I sat in my car and watched the high school students perform their market entry ceremonies, I remembered why December is so important to a newlywed, how his dream came true and the lesson that the wind blows at its own pace.
When Jeanette called for an appointment, the oak trees on the front grass had fallen off piles of bright red and yellow leaves. I made up my mind to hire a young man who lived down the street for a pittance.
I closed my eyes, prayed quickly, and then asked Jeanette's mother to speak. My mother also came with Uncle Barry and his wife, who said that she was happy whenever Jeanette wore the brooch that she had left with Jeanette in the will. Then I passed on some information about the house that Jeanette and her husband had recently bought, and a few other things that I do not remember now. But I remember what Jeanette said when I asked her if she had any questions.
"When will Bill and I have our first child?"
She and her husband had been trying to conceive for three years, and the couple were considering a maternity clinic.
To my mind, Jeanette's mother whispered bitterly, December!
"The spirit tells me she's going to get pregnant in December," I said. Jeanette was overjoyed. December was two months away, and the way she was expressing her happiness, it seemed she could not wait to call Bill for a happy afternoon.
Shortly after Christmas, I received a frustrated email from Jeanette. She was not yet pregnant.
I felt a pull in my stomach. Jeanette was overjoyed when the spirit, for me, gave her that message. In my heart, I knew that the spirit was never wrong. Did I misinterpret something? But I could hear my mother's voice!
Over the next few weeks, I reflected on that reading. And then, as time went on to create a distance, the memory of Jeanette's session disappeared. Winter becomes spring, leading to cool summer and wet autumn. Farmer's Almanac predicted a severe winter. I made sure I had enough wood in the basement to feed the stove.
On December 15, I received an unexpected phone call. Jeanette, overjoyed, told me that she was pregnant.
My spirits rose. "I'm happy for you!" I said I remembered my mother's voice. December! And here it was, December - but after one year. So the spirit was right. It was not just the December I thought the spirit was talking about.
That was a good lesson for me. Time is different from the spirit world. There are no watches on the other side of life. The wind does not wear a watch. It is only here on the ground plane that things are expected to be done by a certain deadline. So now, when the wind gives my client the most important day or month, I add: "But it may not be this Tuesday (or October, whatever)."
I thought about that as I watched the boys decorate the pine trees outside the supermarket. Now what if I haven’t bought holiday gifts yet? No rush to go shopping. I have a lot of time.
