Just Ask

This is your card reading for Thursday, August 10th/17. Your card today leapt out of the 'Spirit Messages' deck, authored by John Holland.  Your card is 'Just Ask', and John's message for the card is this:
"There are many here in the Spirit World that can assist you at this time. We are made up of the Divine Source, your loved ones, friends, Guides, Angels, and Spirit Helpers who are waiting to assist you. We are your Spiritual Team, and all you have to do is ask for our help and guidance.
We bring you this card at this specific time because we want to remind you that even though you're reaching out for answers, you don't necessarily need a special tool to ask us for our help. We have always been here and always will be, and although we cannot interfere with your karmic lessons that you're meant to learn, we can come to your aid by gently inspiring, guiding, and helping you to recognize synchronistic signs.
During your lifetime, you may have tried to do or have done things on your own, which can be rewarding, but when it becomes too much, and you start to feel drained or weak, or you don't have the strength to go on...then call on us, and we'll make every effort to help you. Remember once again that we cannot interfere in your life until we're asked or invited. Know that we're always here and waiting---and most important, that we love you."

My message for you today is this:
The messages that I share here with you come 'through' me, and are not 'from' me---I know and understand that. The intention in my doing these daily card readings is that the messages presented here will resonate and serve a collective, rather than an individual---and I am included in that collective! So, the messages are for me, also. I have a confession to make: It has been shared that we are in a powerful time and that the energies being offered are conducive to accelerated movement forward...that the Universe is indeed conspiring in our favour. Yet, I personally found myself in frustration yesterday as a very heart-centered project of mine seemed to have been stymied, with no forward movement when we are 'so close' to birthing it, despite concerted efforts to bring it to fruition. I believe absolutely in Divine Timing, and that our Spiritual Advisors and the Divine are there to support us, even when we don't necessarily see evidence of that here in the physical at certain moments in time. Yet, even when we strive to live our lives consciously, we may still drop into moments of doubt and/or frustration. That's part of being human. As has been said so often here...we are not meant to DENY our feelings, but rather, to use them as guideposts. Sometimes, feelings of frustration mean it would be best to redirect ourselves. How do we know? WE JUST ASK! Ask your Spiritual Advisors to assist you---trust, allow and believe the guidance being offered, and then take guided action.  When I checked the Inbox on my computer this morning, a very possible solution to yesterday's frustration over my heart-centered project awaited me, from a source I hadn't imagined!  To receive such assistance, we must ASK, due to the Universal Law of Free Will. Our Spiritual Advisors cannot intercede in our life experience without our permission and so, we must ask. What is interesting is that it is often in those times that we require their assistance most, that we 'forget' to reach out to them!  Working consciously with your Spiritual Advisors doesn't mean that you will never encounter challenges or times of frustration.  It does mean, however, that you will move through your life with greater ease and grace and that the challenges and frustrations will not be the prevailing theme of your life experience.  This message has presented for you today---when we are experiencing an INTENSE energy period in the month of August and the eclipse season---to remind you of the support that is available to you. Utilize that support to employ these energies for your greater good, and you may find your life progressing forward in ways you could not have imagined!  Just ask...and TRUST!
Blessed be...
