While the tiny Tazmanian Devil I live with sleeps I’ve just been quickly uploading the last interview I did to a safer location than my dictaphone.
One theme I notice with my interviews so far (a massive 5 done already! ummm… only another 35 to do according to my supervisor) is location. Noisy coffee shops with inquisitive neighbours might not be all that ideal.
However, its interesting to me that in considering the location for the Skype interviews I am scheduling I am very concerned about who will be able to overhear us… my husband at home, other grads at my college, should I book a private room at college, at my faculty? And yet I have a much more laissez-faire attitude to members of the public sharing our air-space.
I think its in part that I am feeding off of my interviewees’ attitudes. They really dont mind if Joe Bloggs hears them discussing the 5th Dimensional protection that they recently received from Archangel Michael. Because for many of them, they want others to know about the world changes, or the Ascension as some of them call it, that is taking place as we ALL start to operate at a higher vibrational frequency. So while I might plan my Skype interviews ahead of time and dictate the space I am in, when its face to face, the space that they are in is mostly influenced by their message. Something I need to bear in mind in my paper responding to the idea that being spiritual is to be overly individual and non-social in some way. Everything they do is about spreading out their message, even if their original journey is inwards, inwards to find the authentic self.
