Quickwater Oracles

Award-winning poet Ruth Thompson offers an exhilarating collection of channeled conversations, meditations, and poems in Quickwater Oracles. The skeptical product of an agnostic, scientific family, Thompson began learning to channel with the intention of deepening the intuitive sources of her poetry. But her channeling quickly expanded to include lively, frank, and sometimes hilarious conversations with an extraordinary range of beings, from trees and animals and landscapes to faeries, Dragons, Singers and others.

Conscious channeling involves intentionally connecting and communicating with nonphysical fields of consciousness. Thompson's gift is knowing (claircognizance) that is instantly expressed in words. Because she is a poet, it was natural for her to translate in language that is poetic - that gives us not just a summary of her experience but a personal connection with the experience itself.

When Thompson began channeling she was in a state of grief and rage over the state of the world and the destruction of the planet. Yet these messages spoke of happiness, of joyous celebration, and of unconditional love as her work. At the end, the beings she calls The Dolphins tell her: "Your realm is what you create in the moment of singing. That exists. That exists and you have created it. It is a joy-making of being together and singing with us, of us, as us, merged with us, our song."

Wise, enlivening, and unsentimental, these channels will inspire discussion, journaling, and daily meditation among readers of all kinds. Although this book can be read from beginning to end as the record of one woman's journey as a channel, poet, and Singer, it can also be used as a collection of daily meditations or consulted as an oracle.
