HONOR WHERE YOU
ARE
Angelic Greetings!
So much is happening, isn’t it? Things are moving, rolling, and
shaking.
Whether those things are “good” or “bad” is really not the
point. The angels want us to try to pull back our focus, zoom
out if you will, to try to see and grasp the bigger picture. Try
to envision your “old self” and your “future self.
” See the lessons you’ve learned, the old patterns you are
releasing and changing. And see that you are doing and
experiencing everything perfectly to get to that future self,
which is the most authentic expression of your Self.
Honor your present self as the perfect blending of the past,
present and future. Honor where you are at this very moment.
Trust that the changes you are making and the transformation you
are undergoing are for the highest good of all. We are being
asked to forgive and make peace with past wounds. It is the only
way we can truly heal.
We are also being asked to honor our physical bodies by
exercising, building strength and stamina, eating more healthful
foods, and getting adequate sleep.
That last one is so important. So much healing, physical and
spiritual, takes place during our sleep. But, as a society, we
are cheating ourselves out of this crucial nutrient. There is an
epidemic of sleeplessness, as evidenced by the abundance of
sleeping aid commercials on television. The angels say that we
should use them, rather than drugs. First, as you are going to
bed, empty your thoughts, worries, and anxieties from your mind
and body by giving them to the angels. Use whatever imagery
works for you to “close the door” on the day’ s events and
resist focusing on the events of the coming day. Then ask the
angels to help you relax and get a restful sleep. You can ask
them for healing, clearer dreams, messages, or just a good
night’s sleep.
Please remember that you can never be “disconnected” from your
angels and the outpouring of love from the Universe. If you are
feeling that way, it is okay. Again, it is important to honor
where you are. Sometimes, when we are in the void, a place of
indecision and unknowing that often precedes major change and
transformation, we feel that way. So just surrender to it. And
sometimes, we are just not taking the time to connect. If our
focus is solely on the illusion of the physical, material world,
and we do not take the time to quiet our minds and allow our
energy to sense what lies beyond the physical, then we will not
feel connected. My personal experience is that the veil is
thinning and our abilities to perceive the messages of the
non-physical Universe are getting stronger and stronger. We
simply need to allow ourselves to receive.
Everything – the entire Universe – moves in cycles. Recognize
where you are in the cycle of life. Try to examine how you feel
during the cycles of the moon, or the different seasons.
Sometimes we are naturally more productive and sometimes we need
to pull back and rest. Even during the course of a day, you go
through cycles of energy. If you try to force yourself to be up
in a down cycle, or down in an up cycle, it will always feel as
if you are swimming against a strong current. As you understand
your own cycles, see the bigger picture, and honor exactly where
you are, you begin to flow more effortlessly with the currents
of life.
CONGRATULATIONS TO THE NEW AGP’S!
The last weekend of January was an incredibly special time for
me as I got to spend it with 7 amazing women (6 participants and
1 wonderful assistant) and one amazing man (my hubby!) as we all
journeyed through my first Angel Guidance Practitioner Course.
And what a journey it was. I have to say that it was even more
magical and more healing for all of us – including me – than I
had envisioned. The angels were present in a big way and
assisted us as we worked on so many levels – physically,
spiritually, and emotionally. The six women who participated in
the course are all amazing Angel Guidance Practitioners who
clearly received many beautiful messages. I know they are going
to bring blessings and healing to many others in whatever they
do. Thank you again, AGP’s, Debbie, and Manny, for accompanying
me on this adventure, and congratulations on becoming the first
AGP’s!
TO DO: UNIVERSE
We are all busy, busy, busy. And if you are like me, you have a
few “to do” lists going at once. I am definitely at the point
where I feel if I don’t write it down, I will forget to do it. I
also love the reward of crossing out the items that I have
accomplished.
I recently read about a new kind of “to do” list in the book Ask
and it is Given by Esther and Jerry Hicks. I have been trying it
for a while now and I want to share it with you. The premise
behind this is that if we have too many things on our list, we
get overwhelmed and never feel like we are making progress. And
perhaps, we are giving ourselves too much to do, when there is
help available.
So now, per the suggestion in the book, I have two lists. One
list is entitled just “To Do” or “To Do Today” and it includes
the things I absolutely need to and intend to get done within a
day or two. The other list is entitled “To Do: Universe.” This
is a list of things I am asking the Universe to help me get
done.
It amazes me how quickly and easily the things on the Universe
list get done! Of course, there is still human action involved.
But an element of divine timing seems to help these things
unfold naturally, without a lot of pushing. It’ s like
delegating. You put things in the trusted hands of the Universe
and know that it will get done at the right time and the right
place, and you will be guided as to when to take the appropriate
actions. Give it a try. It’s fun!
ARCHANGEL OF THE MONTH: JOPHIEL
Card: Clear Your Space
Message on
Card:
“Get rid of
clutter, clear the energy around you and use feng shui.”
About Archangel Jophiel (taken from Doreen Virtue’s “Archangel
Oracle Cards booklet):
Jophiel’s name
means “Beauty of God.” She sees beauty in everyone and
everything and helps you do the same. Call upon Jophiel anytime
you feel rush, stressed, or unhappy. She’ll increase your
appreciation of life’s everyday miracles.
Message from Jophiel:
“Pink roses. Lemon drops. Jasmine. Lavender. Just the thought of
these tingles your senses. Try today to smell a rose or taste a
lemon drop. Then give thanks for your unique ability to use your
physical senses to evoke joy and pleasure. Go into nature and
feel the wind’s caress on your cheek. Listen to sweet whispers
of the plants and trees. Feel the healing that water longs to
share with you. This is the unconditional love that pours forth
to you from God’s Beauty.
“If for a moment you have forgotten or forsaken your own Beauty,
go into retreat. This can be within your mind and imagination,
or in a physical place that brings you comfort and joy. Go into
silence and tune into all your senses. Some of you fear your
deep strong emotions. Do not be afraid to touch your feeling
sense as well. It is part of your aliveness, your Beauty, and
often gives you the gift of Truth.
“Do not limit yourself to what you think you can do. Expand into
what you feel you must do. Your Beauty is a shining essence that
begs to be seen and shared. Imagine going through your day
telling everyone and everything you see ‘You are beautiful.’ Try
it, if only in you mind. Do not forget yourself when you look in
the mirror. At the day’s end, you may receive the gift of
knowing just how beautiful you are in the eyes of the angels,
and in the eyes of God/dess.
“When you see the pink rose, it is me remembering you
remembering me. I love you unconditionally as you shall love
yourself. Jophiel”
Angel Blessings!
