I continue to work with the situation and a nasty thought comes into my head. I think, "Oh my gosh. I can’t say this about Elena’s dying mother. This can’t be so."

Elena and I keep talking and I keep working, but finally I have to say it.

…"Did something sexual happen between your mom and her brother?” 

"Oh my gosh!" Elena says, "I’ve been thinking that same thing!!"

“I almost didn’t bring this up,” I say.

Even though the brother is younger than Elena's mom, I see that her mother defers to him. He holds some kind of negative influence around her.

As we go on I finally grasp that Mom is terrified to die, afraid that she will go to Hell.

Before I got the thought about her and the brother… I felt that all the negativity coming from Mom was actually fear and loathing and abuse and more... but I didn’t know where it came from or why.

It turns out the mother has always been a good Catholic girl! 

I say to Elena, “It seems ridiculous for the Church to say to your mother that she’s going to Hell, considering how the Catholic Church has been found to preach one thing and do another!"

But Mom is totally convinced that to get to Heaven she has to be as sexually innocent as the Church demands she be and that she is evil and going to Hell as she is not a virgin, was not one at a young age, and therefore is not innocent and not pure. After all she had sex with her brother! Burn in Hell!

I mention to Mom and Elena that what is considered evil in our time period was expected and even demanded in other times. 

I remind them of the Egyptian royalty who married their siblings and the English royalty who married their cousins. It was normal and expected, but look what happened to them, all the illnesses, pointed heads, lolling tongues, deformities and drooling stupidities. 

We currently have a rule not to be sexual with our relatives because we now understand about inbreeding and genetics. 

Elena and I discuss all this in front of her mother’s body with its remnants of personality while the soul of the mother sits calmly away from it.

As the Beings tell us "We Are All God And God Loves All Experience."

"So Go in peace, Mom," I say. "All is well."

REPORT FROM ELENA AFTER THE SESSION

“Venus, here’s what happened after you worked with my mother.

"It’s only Wednesday, but from Friday afternoon through Sunday, after I talked with you, we really moved through energy with my Mom in the most graceful way and she passed at 6:15 PM on Sunday night. 

"It was sort of this breathing thing, and then she stopped and it was super peaceful. We were all in the house and it was not weird or an absence of energy, just nice, like a fresh air feeling but not cold or hot or anything, just a little dizziness in my head as we all ate spaghetti. My dad, my sister, my niece, and my brother in law and I just eating quickly. 

"The day of her death we had another priest come to see Mom and that went well. 

"So thank you, thank you, thank you Venus.

"I also saw this partnership you saw... between the body and the spirit and really kept that energy up for her body of 'Its OK, its part of the journey, you are free', and I was getting the impression that we as people also start out as a body and then we are spirit all the time now on our journey. It's like we are showing the ropes to the body of how to be a spirit and have a body and disintegrate the body into new energy. I’m not sure where all that came from but it helped me in the moment. 

"Thank YOU so much.” 

Elena

 

SIDE NOTE:

"Elena" is a fake name. My friend gave me permission to use her story, but I changed her name to Elena. 

When I had written a rough draft of this, I sent it to her for her approval. She was wowed by the name I chose. 

"Elena was my grandmother’s name! This is awesome."

I had to agree it’s pretty trippy. We think her grandmother approves of the telling…
