Seven of Fire


This is your card reading for Monday, March 30th/15.  Your card today dropped out of the 'Angel Tarot Cards' deck, authored by Doreen Virtue and Radleigh Valentine.  Your card is the minor arcana card, 'Seven of Fire', and Doreen and Radleigh's message for the card is this:
"Defend your beliefs and decisions. Stand your ground!  Choose your battles wisely...
Stand your ground and don't back down.  You might need to defend your beliefs or decisions, and you will be successful.  It's important to assert yourself and go for what you want.  There's strength in adversity, and you've got what it takes.  Stand up for your convictions!
Stay alert and vigilant. Don't drop your guard just because you're in the right.  Others may envy what you possess.
ADDITIONAL MEANINGS OF THIS CARD:  Choosing your battles wisely.  Learning to say no.  Self-confidence. Courage. Challenging those in power.  Perseverance."

My message for you today is this:
I am getting that, as we move forward, we are being encouraged to LOVINGLY ASSERT ourselves from a place of SELF-EMPOWERMENT.  So many of us had long held to the pattern of withholding our true nature and in playing the role that we felt that others needed us to play.  The current energy is lovingly pushing us toward expressing our authentic selves, and this begins with being true to ourselves!   Your past behavior may have been to undermine your true feelings and beliefs in order to make those around you more comfortable; and also to ensure that you were not attacked or threatened by the opinions and beliefs of others.  I know that that was a deeply engrained pattern for me---I saw it as a means to protect myself and my husband and children from judgment and ridicule.  Funny thing is that neither my husband or my children ever expected me to hide my 'psychic self' away...doing so was rooted in my own fears...not theirs!  Do not wait until you have reached the 'boiling point' to stand your ground about what is important to you---then, you will come from a defensive position that is combative, rather than self-empowered and assured.  You are being urged to stand firmly in your own power and to completely own who you are, from a place of self-love and also love of others.  REMEMBER:  True self-empowerment NEVER disempowers another.  To stand firmly in your power means to HONOUR yourself.  Self-confidence is all about understanding who you are and fully expressing that from a loving place.  Take affirmative action, and lovingly stand up for yourself.  You've no doubt heard the old idiom: 'You catch more flies with honey than with vinegar'.  It is far more effective to take your stand from the energy of self-love than from a point of attack.  THAT is what the Universe is encouraging you to move toward in this shift from the masculine paradigm that we have been living as a collective; toward the feminine paradigm that encourages cooperation rather than competition.  
Blessed be...

Awakening & Boundless


This is your card reading for Friday, March 27th/15.  Two cards soared together out of the 'Path of the Soul' fractal art deck, authored by Cheryl Lee Harnish.  Your cards are 'Awakening' (the card being 'held' by the angel figurine) and 'Boundless' the card on the right in the photo), and Cheryl Lee's messages for the cards are:
~Awakening~
"This card expresses creative energy and self empowerment.  It signifies a deeper inner awakening to previously unseen inner abilities, powers and gifts.  There is a strong spiritual and creative force rising within you.  Rise to the call!  Feel your own strength and utilize the many gifts you possess.
Empower others with your strong leadership qualities and ability to find creative solutions. Allow yourself to shine.  It is time to share your strengths and gifts with the world."

~Boundless~
"This is a card without limits.  It is eternal and infinite.  Either you are just beginning to experience your own unlimited nature or you are holding yourself back from it.  This card asks you to remove any doubts and fears you may have.  Move forward in faith, knowing the only limits you will ever experience are the ones you have created for yourself based on your own beliefs.
A world without boundaries or limits is opening to you.  Anything and everything is possible."

My message for you today is this:
Wow!  Two dynamic cards presented together for you today...and no wonder, with the energy we have been in!  Today is a super energy day, cosmically, and a good day for, as advised by Elizabeth Peru of Delta Waves, in her Tip-Off Global Energy Forecast:
"Creating new empowered habits; listening before speaking; trying something new; testing your limits."
As Elizabeth further states in regards to the energy of today:
"The cosmos has surprises in store.  The message is that...we are being delivered with something even better than we previously could have imagined.  How will you spot this delivery?  Trust, is the order of the day.  Trust in what? Trust that you work in tandem 'with' the Universe.  You are not an island unto yourself.  The divine forces are in sync with your desires and today we see the manifestation of this, and swiftly.
You are urged to consider bold and expressive moves today and be ready to promptly update your requirements at a moments notice.  We are stepping out of our comfort zone and this is a very good habit to get into.  The energy is asking you to follow and open up to the possibilities that you are creating for your life.
Manifesting skills are turned onto high.  You can make massive leaps and bounds forward on your most personal and meaningful projects this weekend.  The cosmic forces are with you.  What a team!"
So, I share this quote from Elizabeth's take on the energy of today, because it is NO COINCIDENCE that both the 'Awakening' and the 'Boundless' fractal art cards presented for you today!  You are being given the same message from many different sources.  We have been experiencing a recalibration vibrationally, and we are 'awakening' to the 'boundless' possibilities available to us!  Listen...I 'get' that many of us have been experiencing these recent energies as disconcerting...I have been one of those people!  Please know and understand that we ARE being pushed outside our comfort zones---to a place where we will shine our Light of Divinity just as we came here to do at this time!  Know that the Universe IS truly conspiring in your favour, by having you face and release what no longer serves you in terms of old habitual patterns and ways of being.  You are honestly being encouraged to step into your best self---acknowledging and releasing old hurts and patterns is often an uncomfortable process, but one that is SO worthwhile!  Today, embrace the knowing that you are awakening and that your potential is boundless...just sit with that and feel excitement for what awaits you!  The Divine sees you as a shining Light...it's time for you to fully recognize that, too!
Blessed be...

Healthy Lifestyle ~ Archangel Raphael


This is your card reading for Thursday, March 26th/15.  Your card shot out of the 'Archangel Oracle' card deck, authored by Doreen Virtue.  Your card is 'Healthy Lifestyle ~ Archangel Raphael', and Doreen's message for the card is this:
"Archangel Raphael:  Eat a healthful diet, get adequate sleep, and exercise regularly for optimal health...
ADDITIONAL MESSAGE:  You are co-creating your health by following your inner guidance about lifestyle habits.  I give you inner nudges to improve the way you eat, or exercise, or rest more often.  My prodding isn't to nag you or rob you of pleasure.  Rather, my urgings ar in response to your prayers for higher energy levels, increased well-being, weight loss, and a happier mood.  When you take excellent care of your body, your outlook and self-esteem naturally blossom."

My message for you today is this:
Archangel Raphael, whose name means 'he who heals', is known as the 'healing angel'. He is the Archangel that is called upon for matters of health and healing and he also will closely align himself with those who are healers themselves.  Many experience his aura as emerald green in color (as you see in the wings and head of the crystal angel pictured on the Selenite twin tower).  A crystal said to align well with his energy is Malachite (I keep a small piece of Malachite by my bathtub, and I put it in my bathwater when I am feeling less than well, to infuse the water with the healing energy of Malachite and to call in Archangel Raphael, also).  
Archangel Raphael has presented for you today because we have been (and will continue to be) in some very strong cosmic energies and Raphael desires to assist us in coping with and adjusting to those energies. Those of us who are sensitive to energy have been experiencing a lot of physical symptoms and sensations that I know are related to the cosmic powerhouse that is occurring.  This is not said to invoke FEAR, but rather to shift from a sense of powerlessness to a sense of empowerment, in dealing with these energies. We all know that these incoming changes are for our greater good, but that does NOT mean that our physical bodies and our psyche are always comfortable with the adjustments that are taking place!  The word 'adjustment' means to 'adapt or fit to different conditions'---understand that this is a PROCESS and rarely happens instantaneously---it is that PROCESS of adjustment that many of us have been experiencing of late (sometimes quite intensely).  Archangel Raphael will assist us with this adjustment by guiding us toward what is best for us in terms of diet, exercise, etc.  Although we are all in the physical, we are all unique, and what is best for one is not necessarily best for another.  One person's response to certain foods or beverages will not be exactly the same as another.  The type of exercise and movement that best serves one may not serve another in the same way.  You get it...
Pay attention to the 'nudges' or the 'intuitive hits' that you get---they are REAL!  Honour yourself by honouring the temple for your Soul that is your physical vessel.  Know that your physical vessel has been, and will continue to undergo, definite transformation in order to house and embody the infusion of Light that your Soul has been receiving.  The dichotomy about being human is that, sometimes what we reach for when we are feeling out of alignment, is exactly what will take us further out of alignment!  At a time when your body is calling out for nutritious food to nurture it, we 'crave' potato chips and soda to 'comfort' us. 
No self-judgment here---it's called 'coping' and at times, we are seriously just striving to 'cope'!  Understand though, that your body and Soul are recalibrating, and what once was a 'comfort food or beverage' for you may not sit well with you any longer.  Pay attention to these changes and honour them!  Call upon Archangel Raphael to assist you in honouring yourself through extreme self-care of your physical body.  You may feel called to have a massage or Reiki session to assist with some of the achiness that has been manifesting in many.  You may feel called to purchase that Qi Gong or yoga DVD or to attend a class, and to commit to daily practise.  You may feel drawn to take a class in nutrition. You may feel the need to take a nap mid-afternoon, even though this is has not been typical for you in the past.  Whatever the 'nudges', honour them!  Archangel Raphael, as an Archangel, has the ability to 'bi-locate' (meaning to be in multiple places at once), so you are NOT taking him away from assisting another by asking him to be with you!  You can even ask him to remain with you throughout this time of transformation, and to guide you in making the necessary adjustments with ease and grace.  You are not a victim here!  You are being offered Divine support, and remember---you CHOSE to be here at this time!  How exciting! Choose to be here and to experience it all CONSCIOUSLY! 
Blessed be...

Be Brave


This is your card reading for Wednesday, March 25th/15. Your card is from the 'Saints & Angels' card deck, authored by Doreen Virtue.  Your card is 'Be Brave ~ Guardian Angel', and Doreen's message for the card is this:
"Although it may feel as if you're unsafe or in the dark, your guardian angel assures you that you are completely safe, protected, and guided.  Don't be fooled by illusions of fear---instead, be courageous and shore up your personal strength.  There's a blessing in this situation, and by focusing on finding that benefit, you're sure to discover it.
Someone by whom you're presently intimidated by will soon prove to be your loyal ally. Do your best to see God within everyone, within the situation...and within yourself.  There's truly nothing to fear in these circumstances.  It's actually an opportunity for you to grow stronger and more experienced, and to develop higher self-esteem.
Don't run from conflict, but face it with grace and love.  Pray and ask for Heavenly help, and it's assured.  This situation will resolve itself rapidly in a miraculous way.  Your role is to stay positive, speak your truth, and be brave."

My message for you today is this:
Within the cards of the Saints & Angels deck that I used for your reading today, the cards are aligned either with Guardian Angel energy or the energy of specific Saints (such as St. Joan of Arc, St. Anthony of Padua, St. Hildegard of Bingen).  Today, your Guardian Angel has presented for you to remind you that you are NEVER alone, no matter what the circumstances in your life.  Yet, it often seems that, at the times when we feel most vulnerable, we forget to ask for help from our Spiritual Advisors and Guardian Angels.
It is my personal belief and understanding that we all incarnate with at least two Guardian Angels.  Additional Guardian Angels may come into our lives for a period of time or for the remainder of our lives, depending upon our life circumstances and our openness to connecting with the Angelic Realm consciously.  Guardian Angels are Light Beings that have never been in physical form.  Their mission is to assist us and support us in our physical experience here on Earth. They are governed by the Universal Law of Free Will, however, which states that they may not intercede in their human charge's life unless we have asked them to do so---simply put, if you desire their assistance, you need to ASK!
While they are Light Beings, and thus are not in the physical, our Guardian Angels will present to us in ways that we can best receive and understand, because WE are in the physical.  For example, my primary Guardian Angel, Isabella, presents to me in Victorian garb, with a high-neck collar and her hair pulled back in a high bun.  She has a 'school marm' persona in the way that she expresses herself to me, which makes perfect sense, because 'teacher energy' is a strong theme in this life-time for me. 
There are those who will say that a Crossed-Over loved one may serve as a Guardian Angel.  While it is true that Crossed-Overs can and will visit us here on the Earthly plane, (and will remain strongly aligned with certain Souls) they must 'work' to lower their vibration to do so, and so cannot remain here with us in this 'dense' vibration continuously.  Crossed-Overs will definitely be there to support us, on occasion, but they also do not have the 'higher', omnipotent perspective that your Guardian Angels do. In addition, Crossed-Overs are 'busy' on the other side, with progressing their own Soul and so cannot be available to us 24/,7 as your Guardian Angels are.  Guardian Angels vibration, as Light Beings, is such that they can be accessible to us at all times.  Your Guardian Angels are ALWAYS with you, whether you choose to consciously connect with them or not.  I guarantee that you have felt and experienced your Guardian Angel's energy and presence at certain points in your life! Yet, their greatest desire is to serve you and commune with you CONSCIOUSLY.  
Today, your Guardian Angel is encouraging you to 'Be Brave', and to understand that you are not alone.  Whatever your current life circumstance, it is your Guardian Angel's desire to assist and support you with it---please ASK!  
We are in some exciting, but very powerful energy at this time!  This infusion of Light and re-set that we are experiencing has many of us feeling off-kilter and vulnerable.  Call upon your Guardian Angels to assist you in moving through this and in integrating and assimilating into this new energy with ease and grace.  Please know that your Guardian Angels are NEVER about judgment! They see only the Light in you, and they KNOW that you are worthy just as you are!  Call upon your Guardian Angels and be open to consciously connecting with them...to do so will enhance your life in so many ways!
Blessed be...

Energy Healing ~ Merlin


This is your card reading for Tuesday, March 24th/15.  Your card propelled to the floor from the 'Ascended Masters' deck, authored by Doreen Virtue.  Your card is 'Energy Healing ~ Merlin', and Doreen's message for the card is this:
"The situation you've inquired about involves energy healing.  You have healing abilities that you can direct through your hands, thoughts, and heart.  Send loving energy to elevate and heal this situation.  You can clear the energy in a home, office, or vehicle as well.  Your experiences with energy healing may be so powerful that you decide to conduct healings as a profession.
ADDITIONAL MEANINGS FOR THIS CARD:  Take an energy-healing course such as Reiki, Qi Gong, Pranic Healing, or Healing Touch. * Your life purpose involves conducting energy healing. * Clear the space in your home or office through feng shui, burning sage, or other energy-healing methods. * Send love to the situation or person. * Avoid situations, places, or relationships with harsh energy. * Everything is healing and will be okay.*
MERLIN:  No one knows for certain whether Merlin actually lived as a mortal man or not. What is agreed upon is that Merlin is the quintessential magician and sage-wizard archetype.  He's associated with King Arthur's Camelot, Avalon, and Glastonbury.  He's also considered to be an aspect of Hermes Trismegistus, the teacher of esoteric wisdom.  Merlin is a powerful ascended master who helps spiritual teachers and healers focus their energies in beneficial ways."

My message for you today is this:
This card presented for you today as reassurance that, although you have been experiencing some powerful energy and shifting of late, all is truly well.  If you---like me--- have been feeling somewhat 'off' and out of alignment since last Friday's Super New Moon, Eclipse and Equinox; and if you have been enduring vibrational fluctuations and alterations, then know that Spirit is advising that you are being supported through this.  Rather than just fall victim to the ensuing energies, take good care of yourself energetically.  We ARE energetic beings, and you are NOT imagining that change is about!  Many of us have been experiencing both physical and emotional manifestations of the energies that have been prevalent.  Keep in mind that this change is for the good of all, including you; but if you wish to move through this with ease and grace and to do so CONSCIOUSLY, then you need to employ whatever means of energy 'self-care' comes to mind for you today.  If you have studied Reiki, recall that you can flow that energy for yourself...we often forget about that and only think of flowing Reiki energy to serve others.  We can ALL conduct energy in some way, consciously if we strive to do so---ask Merlin and the angels to assist you with adjusting to this infusion of Light that you have been receiving (that we have been receiving as a collective), with ease and grace.  Simply visualize yourself taking in the Light and having it flow freely into every cell of your body. Ensure that you avoid any harsh energy regarding people, situations or places; if you can today.  Be gentle with yourself, and strive not to fall into self-judgment or self-doubt about what you are experiencing.  This is a very personal experience and you are striving to acquaint yourself with the new you!  Give yourself some time today to just rest in this, rather than resisting it.  Practise extreme self-care in whatever way you can---even if that means just carving out a portion of the day to do so.  Be adamant about this---it is key to your opening yourself to being the embodiment of Light that your Soul so desires and that the Divine sees in you already! 
Blessed be...

Carnelian ~ Action


This is your card reading for Monday, March 23rd/15.  Your card today sprung out of the 'Crystal Ally' card deck, authored by Naisha Ahsian.  Your card is 'Carnelian ~ Action', and Naisha's message for the card is this:
"Carnelian has called upon you today in order to remind you of your course of action. Seeking spiritual guidance and advice is the first step in creating your reality, but the second and most important step is to take action upon that inner guidance.  Without action, there is no creation; and we have chosen to come into this world in order to learn to co-create with the Universe.
Do not fear action because of the possibility of failure.  There is no failure, just as there are no mistakes. Each action that you take leads you to a learning experience.  Every learning experience that you have adds to the store of wisdom that you can share with others, and leads you closer to your goal of self-understanding.  Listen to your higher guidance, open yourself to the path that the Universe is clearing for you, and take a step forward.  Carnelian has come to guide you on your path of action...
Another aspect of the energy of Carnelian is it's ability to strengthen and fortify the physical body, enhancing the flow of life force energy, and it's expression through physical vitality. Our physical bodies are the houses of our spirit.  When we neglect the physical, we are neglecting the temple in which our spirit resides during this lifetime.  Carnelian's energy resonates with the physical levels of our being, focusing our attention upon the state of our spirit's house.  We can strengthen our connection to the Divine by strengthening the physical structure with supports our spirit.  Carnelian reminds us of the value of physical strength and health.
CHAKRA: Sacral
AFFIRMATION:  I am willing to create my reality."

My message for you today is this:
Did anyone else feel this past weekend as though you were undergoing a 'rewiring' of sorts? I am usually an excellent 'sleeper', but Saturday night was a night of restless sleep and of also experiencing what I can only describe as a insurgence of 'energy' that left me feeling somewhat anxious.  It was one of those nights where you feel as though you haven't really slept all that much, yet you are aware that you must of slept, because you recall dreaming. Powerful, and somewhat discombobulating! Sunday was spent integrating that experience.
My take is that we are being challenged at this time to 'walk our talk'---time to get truly authentic, beginning with ourselves.  Any of that 'shadow' stuff that you may have strived in the past to deny or to bury, is pushing to the forefront to be acknowledged and dealt with. Know that to do so is meant to EMPOWER, rather than to DISEMPOWER you---no dropping into self-judgment here, because of old patterns or ways of being that no longer serve you.  You are being reminded at this time that acknowledging those patterns is the first step to changing or modifying them so that you can take CONSCIOUS ACTION and thereby walk the path that you are meant to at this time. This truly is a call to action. Some of your old ways of being will no longer feel comfortable.  Begin by taking that first step in changing what it is that you are feeling compelled to change at this time.  We are currently in a powerful portal for effecting change within our lives---particularly if that change is reflective of our Soulful Self.  Perhaps you have not been honouring your physical body as you feel that you should and you are feeling called to action to eat more healthfully or exercise more regularly.  Perhaps you are feeling called to dedicate a portion of every day to honouring the spiritual aspect of yourself.  Perhaps you are feeling called to actively pursue that learning or education or creative pursuit that you had been putting on the back burner.  Perhaps you are now ready to release and move past an old coping mechanism or habit that no longer resonates with who you know yourself to truly be.  Whatever it is for you at this time, KNOW that you are empowered and supported in taking the action necessary to make it so in your reality.  Wear or carry the crystal Carnelian, and it will assist and remind you energetically that you are not alone on this journey.  The Universe is conspiring in your favor on so many levels!  Take that leap of faith!
Blessed be...

Light Body Guide


This is your card reading for Thursday, March 19th/15.  Your card today skimmed out of the 'Divine Guidance' fractal art deck, authored by Cheryl Lee Harnish.  Absolutely PERFECT that your card today (we are entering the powerful cosmic energy of Spring Equinox in symphony with Super New Moon and Total Solar Eclipse that occurs tomorrow) is 'Light Body Guide' (thank you, Spirit)!  Cheryl Lee's message for the card is this:
"Lately you may have noticed some strange things happening within you.  Your Light Body is moving into a higher vibration and as this shift occurs, you may not feel like your normal self.  This guide has come to let you know that being absent minded, forgetful, unclear in your thinking, or feeling heart palpitations and other strange sensations, is perfectly normal at this time.  Light Body Guide encourages you to drink lots of water, and get plenty of rest. The butterfly over his heart in this fractal image is a symbol for you to contemplate.  He is here to reassure you that you'll be back to feeling normal very soon."

My message for you today is this:
In carrying Cheryl Lee's message for you forward, I would say that you will be feeling 'a NEW normal' very soon---the 'old normal' just will not seem to fit you anymore.  You HAVE been receiving an infusion of Light and thus are being shifted in such a way that there is no 'going back'.  You will find that you no longer resonate in the same way with what you once did.  There is no judgment here about being 'better than'---this is purely the energy of Soul progressing and evolving.  The Earth has been bathed, of late, with this infusion of Light, which has been eliciting various reactions and responses from the collective.  Your role in all of this, is to be responsible for how YOU integrate and utilize this infusion of Light.  How will YOU choose to move forward in taking CONSCIOUS ACTION as the embodiment of expansive Light here on Earth?  This is not a time to get caught up in the drama that may be playing out around you! Some are struggling more than others (either consciously or unconsciously) with the energies that have been abounding---these energies HAVE been chaotic.  Your role is to find your own personal 'center' and to lovingly take care of yourself energetically while we are in this intense energy shift---tomorrow (and in fact, the days either side of it, because energy is in FLOW---it isn't just 'clap on, clap off') is being touted as the most powerful cosmic energy event of 2015.  Choose to approach it consciously---from a place of personal responsibility, self-empowerment, and yes...even excited anticipation! Begin today, by making the commitment to connect with Spirit and to honour the spiritual aspect of yourself.  Be that by sitting in meditation; spending time in Nature; doing a card reading for yourself; journalling; taking a sea salt bath surrounded by lighted candles; practising Yoga or Qi Gong; going for a walk or a run---whatever feels Soul nurturing to you, just be sure that you make this important commitment to yourself today.  Engage in this activity MINDFULLY.  Call upon Light Body Guide to be with you and to assist you in assimilating and integrating this infusion of Light that you have been receiving 'for your greater Good', and in truth, the greater good of All.  These are exciting times!  Your Soul has chosen to be here to experience this, and you KNOW this to be true.  
Blessed be...
