A Magical Encounter in Minneapolis - 10/1/10

On my return flight from Portland, Oregon, I had a stop in Minneapolis with a layover of about an hour or so.  I was sitting at the gate for my next flight and happened to notice a group of people sitting two rows up with their backs towards me.  There was a middle aged woman on the left, a man of similar age (who I took to be her husband) sitting in the middle and a younger man with long hair sitting on the right.  I'd first noticed the younger man because he had a t-shirt with a wolf on the back of it.  This group didn't appear to be family, but the intensity of their conversation with this young man was compelling me to watch.

The young man reached into a leather case and pulled out a large quartz crystal and placed it in the woman's hand.  She held it for a few moments.  I couldn't see if she gave it back or not.  Then the woman took her husband's hand and the younger man placed his hand on top of theirs.  They all bowed their heads as if in prayer.  I saw a small human like figure fall down into their clasped hands and then a large, egg shaped energy field appeared above them.  In a few moments they unclasped their hands and the husband and wife said thanks to the younger man and they all got up and got their things together to board another flight.  When the younger man got up, he put on a western leather jacket with beading on it and a black southwestern type hat and I realized I was looking at a medicine man (healer).  That was the first time I had ever actually seen healing energy and I felt really blessed to have been a witness to their encounter.
