Archangel Michael

This is your card reading for Thursday, September 3rd/15.  Your card bolted out of the 'Healing With the Angels' deck, authored by Doreen Virtue (the first deck she ever published).  Your card is 'Archangel Michael', and Doreen's message for the card is this:
"CARD MEANING:  This powerful Archangel is with you right now.  He gives you courage and helps release you from the effects of fear...
Through this card, Archangel Michael is making his presence known to you.  He is the symbol of true courage, stemming from knowing that God's love is the only power there is. Michael is letting you know that, as you make changes in your life and as you encounter challenges, you are safe and secure.  God and the angels help you stay true to yourself during trying times.
Have heart-to-heart discussions with Michael often.  Pour out all of your concerns to him. Don't worry about overburdening him.  Michael, like all of the archangels, is able to be with everyone simultaneously who needs him.  He has no limitations of time or space, so he can help you and others concurrently."

My message for you today is this:
Archangel Michael's name means 'He who is like God'.  Michael is often referred to as the 'supreme protector' because his major theme is to assist us with fear, and clearing energy.
Archangel Michael also supports us with our life purpose.  Recall that I have stated here many times that 'life purpose' does not refer solely to your CAREER; although, if you are indeed living your life 'on purpose', then your career WILL reflect your life purpose. 
We are in the energies at this time, that have us feeling a sense of URGENCY to take steps in truly living our lives 'on purpose'.  This means letting go of old patterns of behavior and belief that may stifle our creative expression...some have shared with me that they were feeling anxious and a little sad yesterday.  My advice was to relax into it and to take some time to clear your energy, as in taking a wonderful Himilayan sea salt bath or shower; and to also employ the support of crystal energy to help you release and also to lift you up and fill you with Light, following the releasing (Smoky Quartz is wonderful for clearing, Petrified Wood is great for grounding, and Selenite is a gentle yet high vibrational stone for bringing in the Light and Angelic energy...although there are MANY other crystals that would assist, also).   That energy may have carried over into today as we move toward the 'get 'er done' energy that we are heading into. Think of what you are experiencing now, as preparation for moving into a 'lighter' place that is in resonance with your authentic self and who you are NOW.  Call upon Archangel Michael to be with you and to support you---as Doreen suggests in her message to you above, speak your fears or concerns to Archangel Michael, or journal them to him, if that feels more appropriate for you.  Ask him to cut cords and to clear you of that which is not yours and which no longer serves you.  Energetically sensitive people are also picking up on the abounding energies and the 'angst' of the collective...so...let it go!  
There are 44 cards in this deck, and only one is an Archangel card
---the Archangel Michael card---THAT is the card that revealed itself for you today, so know that Archangel Michael was determined to make himself known to you!  You ARE supported by the Angelics, including your own Guardian Angels and Spirit Guides...don't forget to call upon them to assist you...particularly during these intense energetic times!  
Blessed be...
