Cindy Heald 

NORWAY —   Her eyes close, she relaxes. She breathes softly, in and out, in and out. Her entire body begins to quiver. 

Her breathing becomes heavy. The room is silent, the lights are dim. 

In a circle, 14 observe. No one speaks. 

It is around 7 p.m. Outside, a full moon hangs, veiled by a thin sheet of clouds. There's a light breeze. 

Meanwhile, inside, she continues to breathe deeply in and out. Her body trembles. She begins to weep.

It is Halloween night.

'Time is of the essence' 

 A few minutes pass. The circle of observers continues to sit silently. 

She inhales. She exhales. Another minute passes. Her entire body continues to shake. Abruptly, but in a low, raspy tone, she speaks. "We are many," she says. 

"There's so much sorrow ... What happened?" Her weeping has become uncontrollable. 

"So much destruction," she clamors. "Who? Who is in charge? Who allowed this? Oh, many, many, many lives." 

Her sentences are garbled. Tears moisten her cheeks. "The devastation!" she cries. "Ruined!" 

She gasps. "We were prepared, but not for this."

Someone has taken over her body. It is not the same woman I had spoken to just a few minutes prior. So it seems. 

"Calendars are ending. Those who have been set for centuries, they are ending and we begin. We begin to take charge of ours." 

"It will be hard for many of us ..." she says. "The way we do things, we will have to modify and some things we've never modified before," she stutters. 

"Time is of the essence," she says. "Times are changing." 

Spirit speaks

Who is speaking? Is the end of the world approaching? 

These are a couple of questions that come to mind. 

Cindy Heald, though physically present, seems to have been taken over by some higher power. Heald, R.N., is the owner of Heald Within Holistic Health in Norway, where she offers services such as Reiki, Zero Balancing and craniosacral therapy. 

She also has the ability to channel spirits. 

"We will be changing how we do things, how we treat one another," says the spirit from within. "We need to combine love and kindness on all levels." 

"Always honor one another," she continues, shaking. 

We must work together, she says. We must agree to become community, "with honor, kindness and respect." 

Another few minutes pass. She sits cross-legged, her left hand rests on her knee. Rapidly, it begins to vibrate, back and forth. 

 But, we ask ourselves, who is this spirit? 

Power, ego 

"I am the power. I am the ego," Heald exclaims, her voice ascending. 

"I am the boss of me!" she yells.

"That's the problem. Self-ego. Ego is good because if you don't have ego, you will get hurt; you will fall into danger," she says. Her voice is crackly.

"Where is the power? Most of all, where's the love, the kindness?" she asks. 

Everyone watches perplexed. Again, she sits quietly, meditating on the questions being tossed about the room. 

'I am Pagan'

"Who is present?" a member of the group inquires. 

"I am," is the response. "I am. I am. I am." 

Heald awaits an answer from the spirit within – "I am Pagan," she reveals.  

Now, it feels like the spirit is present.

"We have many here now," she says. Her eyes slowly open. "Who brought them all?" 

Everyone in the room submits questions on a slip of paper for "Pagan" to answer. 

"Is my grandpa in heaven?" "Will I have children?" "Are my kids safe?" are some questions asked. 

"I can tell you today that you will have children," the spirit responds, "but you will have an accident and there will be no children. Things happen everyday, in a split second ..."  

No angel 

"Where do you reside when you are not speaking with us?" someone asks. 

An evil laugh bursts from within Heald. "Wherever I want to," "Pagan" responds. 

"I have never been, or to my memory, not on Earth ... I am very old, yes, but I don't just pick one spot, or one dimension, or one time. I just am." 

"Are you an angel?" another inquires. 

"No" the spirit says. "I am not. I am just old ... but we have many angels, and we have ... many who care for us and guide us."

"Why are you here?" "Are there others with you tonight?" are other questions. 

"Pagan" says her purpose is part teacher, part guide. She also admits there are other spirits present in the room. 

Again she sits, body tremors, eyes closed. "I grow tired, and shall leave the body, for it is time ..." 

Aftermath

It's like she has awakened from a dream. One that she can't remember. It takes her a few minutes to return to physical reality. 

She opens her eyes, appearing tired. She requests a glass of water. 

One woman says she just felt someone touch her that wasn't actually there. 

Another says she "kept getting chills." 

"I started to cry," says Heald, about watching herself on camera one time after a channeling. 

"When I heard it, I'm like, 'Oh my god, this really is real.' I was really amazed." 

Heald says after she awakes, she has a difficult time remembering everything that happened. She says she feels "numb." 

"I don't remember a lot of it," she explains. "I remember the emotional part; I don't remember the actual words."
