A word about what Ruburt calls his “helper.” In the past he drained his reserves. Now they are building up in all areas. There are excess energies now that act as magnets, drawing other positive energy to him in such proportion that the entire gestalt becomes in effect a psychic helper.

Now this does have personality characteristics in terms of consciousness and intent. Very positive ones, initially set into motion by Ruburt’s desire to help others, and attempts to do so. This is a form built up by him unconsciously in a realm other than the physical, and it is gaining in strength and expertise.

He will be able to send it to help others, and it will learn to do so with practice. It will become then more powerful in terms of good. It was always available. His late feelings of joy and release and the refreshment he is finding in nature, released him from private circles of nervousness, and opened channels through which positive energy did accumulate.

It will also be able to guide him in a highly personal manner, again, as it continues to develop. It is born and nurtured in those feelings of peace, joy and contentment that he experiences watching his oak tree. (Out the kitchen window.)

That was his black thing, formed by him.

In your case, Ruburt’s black thing served for both of you. By watching him you learned many lessons that you sorely needed to learn.
