Francesca

This is your card reading for Tuesday, February 2nd/16 (my apologies that your reading didn't get posted yesterday...the internet was really acting up, and is slow even today!)
Your card flipped out of the 'Messages From Your Angels' deck, authored by Doreen Virtue. Your card is 'Francesca', and Doreen's message for the card is this:
"What do you desire right now? Visualize it, and it will come about.  Negativity will block your progress...
You have been asking God and the angels, 'What is next for me? Yet, we have been waiting for you to make that decision for yourself!  That is why you have felt stuck lately.  This impasse occurs because you are afraid of making a 'wrong' decision. We can help you to decide, but ultimately, the next chapter of your life is up to you.  This is a period of your life that is unscripted.
Your desires are like a painting that you create upon the canvas of your life.  Like an artist, you must decide what the theme, background, and foreground will be within your picture. Take some time out to meditate, pray upon, and contemplate this important decision.  Be creative, and maintain standards for yourself.  But remember:  If you don't make a decision, that's the same thing as deciding that everything shall remain the same."

My message for you today is this:
I truly believe in philosophy behind the quote by Wayne Dyer: "When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change."  How you experience life is often about your perspective and the lens through which you view it.  If you see your life from the lens of a victim, then you will dwell in victimhood, and thereby draw more of the same situations to you.  If you view your life and the experiences within it as opportunities and guideposts toward growth, then you will be proactive in moving in a positive direction. You are the artist, as Doreen alluded to, in her message above. Easy to understand and grasp and even to BELIEVE, but not always easy to implement in every aspect of our lives.  Choosing to live 'consciously' is not always comfortable and 'easy'---quite the opposite---it often requires that we get REAL with ourselves and take responsibility for what is currently going on in our lives.  Ironically, it is when we find ourselves in tumultuous times and energies that we forget, or don't  take the time, to connect with our Higher Selves and the spiritual guidance and support that are available to us.  Francesca is reminding you to draw on that...
Blessed be...
