Mother

This is your card reading for Thursday, November 9th/17. Your card today floated out of the 'Mother Mary, Queen of Angels' deck, authored by Doreen Virtue. Doreen's message for the deck is this:
"~I open my heart to my mother's humanness and her divinity.~
This card says that your current situation is rooted in your feelings about your mother. The first thought that springs to mind right now is exactly what needs to be addressed and healed. Regardless of your mother's lifestyle or history, YOU are the one currently living with your feelings. So Mother Mary seeks to support you in gently adjusting the way your view your past, to give you more freedom in your present and future life.
As you hold a compassionate viewpoint toward your mother and see her a fallible human who was doing the best that she could, you heal in profound ways. Having a healed viewpoint concerning your mother allows you to be more open to receiving God's gifts, help from others, and messages from the Divine. Ask Mother Mary for assistance in releasing any old or heavy emotions connected to your mother so that you can better enjoy each moment of your life."

My message for you today is this:
Your message today actually encompasses the maternal relationship on so many levels. Perhaps, like me, your mom is departed from this Earth and you were blessed with a loving mother that you feel deep gratitude for—even as you miss her physical presence in your life.  While I enjoyed a close, loving relationship with my Mom I still have moments of regret where I wonder if I expressed my love and appreciation to her enough while she was alive. At such moments, I make sure to express my gratitude to her with the understanding that she is still present and can receive my love and gratitude on the other side.  I have absolutely felt my Mom's presence and support from the other side at pivotal times in my life since her passing.  If your mom is no longer with you on the physical plane, your message today is that she is still available to you, and if there is something you feel was left unsaid between you, you can still express it.  A mother's love never dies. LOVE REMAINS. 
Another aspect of your message today is in regards to YOU as a mother. If you are mother, Mother Mary wants you to know that being a loving mother doesn't mean being a perfect mother!  Even the blessed Mother Mary's actions as a mother while here on the Earth plane would not have all been seen as 'perfect'. Mother Mary wants you to know that you are loved unconditionally by the Divine, who sees you as perfect, even in your imperfections.  Just as you hold a compassionate viewpoint for your own Mom, knowing that she loved you and cared for you the best way she knew how, hold this same compassionate viewpoint for yourself in the role of Mother.  To be a Mom is a highly emotional experience and will challenge you to grow in ways that no other experience can. Honour yourself as the Divine honours you on this journey. 
And the final aspect of your message today is in regards to a project that you have been striving to 'birth'.  Mother Mary acknowledges the love and nurturing you have been giving to this project and assures you that you are being supported in the gestation of this project from a Divine perspective.  The Divine timing of this project being brought out into the world is drawing near—trust in this. 
Mother Mary makes herself known to you today with the maternal, loving energy that she exudes.  Ask her to assist you and to be with you to support and guide you and she will.
Blessed be...
