Interview with Sara Schurr, Channeler

copyright © 1996, by Karyn Greenstreet. All rights reserved.

Who are the Pixies? The Pixies are a group of seven entities channeled by Sara Schurr.   They have a light hearted style that has brought them their name and they are very capable of tackling the most difficult subjects with clarity, depth and laughter.   Here they are!

Aranya, an ascended master and unofficial leader of the Pixies, is the author of A Journey to the Center and is a regular contributor to Spirit Speaks magazine.  He has a wry sense of humor and is very wise.  He will tackle any topic gladly and loves to talk.

Harmony, a light being or angel, has a childlike beguiling persona and the ability to cut to the heart of any issue like a flaming sword through butter.  She especially likes to address the creation of nature on the planet and our ability to manifest.

Melody, a light being or angel, is known as the staff psychologist.  She has a quiet penetrating style in which her ability to work with human inter-relationships shines.   She especially likes to discuss judgment and forgiveness in our lives.

Symphony, the third light being or angel, has a somewhat gruff persona and he easily tackles issues that people have resistance to.  He likes to address the balance of the universe, the nature of thought and the mind of God.

Hon Sone Lee, a fifth density being, has a physical body like ours but lives in a density where there is space but no time, judgment or limitations.  He enjoys talking about our relationship to the planet and to our bodies and about the flow and use of energy.

Symbala, another ascended master, is a kind, very soft spoken warrior.  He sees life as a dance and enjoys talking about the lonely process of enlightenment and about healing at all levels.

Ramana, a cosmic amoeba, is an uncategorizable multi-dimensional, multi-universe being.  He has a huge voice and energy field and likes to stretch minds like rubber bands.  He enjoys discussing parallel universes, circular logic, chaos theory, and the universe as a hologram.

KG: Sara is a channel of 7 entities known as Aranya and the Pixies. She's a full body channel (she'll explain what that means later), as well as having a doctorate degree in Developmental Psychology from Harvard. Ready, Sara?  

SS: Yes, let's go! 

KG: Sara, what was your earliest psychic experience? 

SS: When I was six my father died of a heart attack. I was down the street playing with a friend and was not allowed to return to our house that night. The ambulances and fire trucks came. My friend was wondering what had happened and was making up stories like someone had broken their neck or someone had the plague (she had a great imagination).  I simply said, "He had a heart attack. He's dead." My friend's mother who was watching blanched and asked me if someone had told me that. I said no, I  just knew it. She didn't confirm or deny what I said, but I knew at the time I was right and I was.  

KG: Yes, often when we're young we have these abilities sometimes gets dampened when we're older. Sara, you channel entities tell us, how and when did you first meet a spirit guide/entity? 

SS: I had my first contact with guidance after meditating daily for about 4 weeks. I had begun meditating because that seemed to be the only important thing to do at that point in my life. I wasn't trying to contact my guides. I was simply meditating. The contact came in the form of a voice that I heard in my head. It spoke to me for about 15 minutes and then I went and wrote down everything I could remember from start to finish. This became my "form" for the next 2 years. In time I decided this guidance was coming from my higher self. 

KG: How did it feel? How did you react? 

SS: It was absolutely wonderful! I felt so honored! The contact felt wonderful and comforting. I was very concerned about what would come next in my life and the voice began by saying, "Yes my child, you have many concerns." I'm not sure who I thought the voice was but I said, "Father?" meaning I suppose God. The voice replied, "I am not your father but you may call me that if you wish." The energy was always kind, comforting and demanding. And I was never afraid, only thrilled and honored.  

KG: Are your guides always around or do you have to try to contact them when you want to communicate? 

SS: I have a number of different types of beings I make contact with. Higher self is always there if I can get quiet enough to listen, i.e. into a deep meditation. I have also made contact with a master teacher and a group of guides I call the circle of light. They do not seem to take as much clarity and quietude on my part to contact. I hear them in meditation and know them by where their voices come from around my head. The Pixies, the entities I channel, are always available on demand. I simply close my eyes take a deep breath, focus on them and they arrive and begin to speak through me. They seldom speak to me in my head as my other guides do but will on a rare occasion. I do not picture any of my guides as being with me or not with me. It is more a case of am I open to them or not. The Pixies will on occasion hang about around me and I can feel them. They are only a thought away otherwise. 

KG: Do you have any particular technique for "calling" your guides? 

SS: I've always used meditation. At this point, I get most of my information either by doing writing practice or by simply being open to answers. But in the years I wanted to "call" guides, I used meditation. At this point I'm very good at dropping into alpha and getting a fast connection. I do this with devas and nature spirits in my garden along with  contacting guides and "calling" the Pixies to channel. 

KG: If you could suggest one simple exercise for someone to do, to be introduced  to their guides, what would it be? 

SS: Since meditation has worked so well for me, I suggest that people use that. I tell people to form a question in their mind. And then letting go of the concerns of the question and the expectation that they will get an answer or make contact, sit in meditation. Sit until full quiet comes to you and then sit some more. Enjoy sitting. Be open. Let anything flow to you. Don't draw things towards you. Be like a riverbed    and allow energy to flow to and through you. If you do this regularly without attachment to results, I believe results will come.  

KG: Are angels part of your spirit guide "group"? If so, do they feel/act differently than other guides?

SS: I channel three being that call themselves angels. They are light beings. They have never been incarnate. They are light and a soul. They are very light and expansive. They feel very different than a guide in that they are much more playful and less "concerned" than the guides. They do everything with the idea of joy and experiencing things fully. They do not have the "helping" feel of the guides. Their viewpoint is much broader and totally unencumbered by judgment, i.e. right and wrong and good and bad. This sort of angel makes a very poor quality "guardian angel." They don't think anything is wrong so they won't "warn" you or stop you from doing anything. 

KG: How do our dreams help us with our psychic and channeling development and understanding messages from our guides? 

SS: Some people get their best information from their guides in their dreams. The advantage of this is that you clearly aren't "trying" to make contact. The guide comes to you. The problem is that many people discount the information or don't remember it. In my early years of channeling, I experienced the entities "downloading" information to me while I slept. Occasionally, I'd wake up and realize this great information was coming through. I'd ask if I should get up and write it down. They'd say no, just go back to sleep. They were placing information into my subconscious so that I wouldn't be so freaked out when they began to talk about new concepts and ideas later on. I know that often times, guides will place information in your subconscious so that at a later time you will be more receptive to it. It can also be put there so that later on it will "drift up" into consciousness. If they place info in the subconscious or intertwine it into the dream then when you receive a message later it can be much easier to understand. I know also that many people who get images, get them explained in their dreams. And the reverse is true too. I used to have my dreams interpreted for me in my daily guidance sessions in meditation. The guidance would use the dream as a jumping off point for some area I needed to work on or understand.  

KG: What form do the guides take?

SS: I really don't know. I've never asked. I like their information. It feels good   to be with them. So I invite them in. The folks that talk to me in my dreams are mostly the Pixies (2 ascended master, 3 angels, and two odd balls <grinning>). 

KG: What does it feel like to channel? 

SS: That's a hard question. I enjoy it. I sit and listen to what is said through me. I feel very detached from what's happening. But everything is VERY clear and makes sense while it's happening.

KG: Do you write it down, or tape record, or anything? 

SS: The guidance I get in my head. I type. The full body channeling is all taped. I've got 9 years worth of tapes--hundreds and hundreds of hours at this point! 

KG: Someone will get rich transcribing for you!  Who, or "what" is Aranya and how big are the pixies?  

SS: Aranya is an ascended master. He's the "head Honcho" of the crew because he showed up first. The Pixies are a pet name my husband gave to the angels when they first showed up. They're as big or little as they want to be.   I think what you're feeling is nature spirits. Most of the ones I've "felt" or met were about three feet tall and would answer very happily to pixie.

KG: After speaking with an entity or guide, sometimes people have a  hard time confirming it, in what way is it confirmed for you? Or is it just a feeling of knowing it to be true  and real?

SS: It's mostly the feeling of solidness. Every once in a while the entities will say something to someone that is known only to them and those confirmable but mostly I tell people to take what "rings their chimes" and leave the rest.

KG: That makes sense, Sara.  That feeling of solid "knowing" often is the only confirmation we get.   Do you have specific reasons or special times to call upon specific entities? 

SS: Not really. I know people who do this.  But the "folks" I have available to me at this point are all pretty good at anything I want.  Now if only I could get one of them to go to the dentist for me.<grin> 

KG: If you find one who will, could you ask if they'll go for me, too? <grin>

SS: I'll let you know.

KG: Do you type the information as you get it or later on?   Can you remember later what you  received if you don't write it down?  

SS: I started out simply listening and writing it down later. I have this incredible memory (it got me through graduate school!) that allows me to run things like a tape recording. I'd   just start at the beginning and it would run. Later when we got a computer I took dictation. I still do that but most of my work is tape recorded now.

KG: Is clairaudiancy the same or the beginning of becoming a channel?

SS: I think it depends on your definitions. I think that clairaudiancy is a form of channeling. But some people think that channeling only starts when you have a flow "through". It gets to be like splitting hairs to me. <grin>

KG: Good thought, Sara I never thought of it that way. I’m still confused...but time will tell.  Do you feel a "presence" when someone/thing comes to speak to you?  For instance, do they ever come to you and "knock on your   door" to get your attention? And how do you respond?

SS: Oh boy, yes. For years I'd feel folks knock on my door. And it scared me to death. My husband was the one who was supposed to be the channel. <grin> I now feel the presence of my group of seven regularly. If I want to have them do their thing, I just let it happen.   The opening is more like a stepping back and letting go of control.  

KG: Sara, have you ever experienced an entity that you were uncomfortable with ,and when asked to leave, the entity choose not to leave? If so how did you handle it? 

SS: Nope, nope and nope.<grin> I've not had anyone "arrive" that I wasn't happy to have with me. I do know folks who have had it happen and I've counseled them on it. You tell them to leave and you get rude if you have to.

KG: Sara, it is an honor to listen to your experiences. How did Harvard feel about your psych experiences?  Have you run into opposition? Or do they now develop this ability in a classroom?

SS: Big grin! It was a well kept secret! Though my room-mate in social psychology is who introduced me to astrology.   I "received" the idea for my dissertation but didn't realize until later what had happened.   

KG: Shhhh...don't tell "the establishment"  <subversive grin> What is the difference between automatic writing and channeling?

SS: Well, let's see. Automatic writing is really a form of channeling.   When I use the word channeling I mean voice channeling, as in an entity speaking through you using your voice   and making your lips move etc.

KG: OH, thanks!  Have you had any problems with what you do, psychicly, along  the lines of family members or in laws, if so how did you handle  that? 

SS: Not really. I have an aunt who simply has stopped talking to me but since she lives 1,000 miles away and I haven't had the need to see her for 10 years it's no loss. The rest of my family either ignores it and doesn't talk to me about it or thinks it's fascinating. I'm real lucky.<grin>

KG: Sara, do you think everyone has guides and/or that everyone could contact them if they did?

SS: Yes, I think that everyone has a whole bunch of guides and that they can learn to contact them.

KG: Have you have or known anyone to have problems with fear in this line of work.  If so, how do you think it effects ones psychic work?

SS: I think fear is the biggest block people face in learning to open up to their guides and to more complex forms of channeling. The fear of being wrong and the fear of my information being rejected certainly were big challenges for me to overcome as I learned to channel.  I'm sure that's true for practicing psychics too.

KG: I have a question about channeling, I have tried a few times and I am not sure if I am reaching my spirit guide or not,  I was wondering how I could take a better approach to this?   

SS: I tell people to meditate. But then I also tell people, when in doubt make it up.<grin>   Keep working at it and don't worry if it's "true."   Doubt is a big barrier.

KG: Yes, I like the idea of using your "imagination" it stretches the intuition muscles. <grin> How many spirit guides does anyone person have? Do we all have just one? 

SS: Everyone I've ever met has had more than one.   Often times we have bunches. I seem to have 20 or 30.<grin> But then I always was a party girl.<grin> You can focus on them like they were only one but I think there are a bunch out there. But the numbers aren't important.    It's what they have to say and what you do with it that's important. And most importantly it's  learning to trust yourself and the listening  and the receiving.

KG: Well, we've run out of time for tonight.  Sara, thank you SOOO much for being here with us tonight!!! Pop in anytime <grin>!

SS: I've had a great time.  Good Night!

KG:  Good night!
