Here we go!!! New Years Eve and the day before the Super New Moon on January 1st/14!!!
Can you feel the new moon energy already? On that note, I was guided to choose from 2 decks for your reading today, and when I saw the 2 cards that literally dropped out onto the floor from each deck, and how they complimented and supported each other, I understood why I had been guided to do so! Your first card is drawn from the 'Saints & Angels' deck, authored by Doreen Virtue, and your card is the 'Commitment' card, which is aligned with 'Guardian Angel' energy. Your second card is drawn from the 'Return of Spirit' fractal art deck, authored by Cheryl Lee Harnish, and your card is the 'Power' card.
Doreen's message for the 'Commitment' card is this:
"Although you may have experienced difficulties or fear, this card is a message from your Guardian Angel to stay committed. Honor your promises to your loved ones, and keep your word to yourself and others. If you're feeling conflicted about having enough time for your responsibilities, then call upon the angels to help...Remember that you're ultimately in charge of your schedule. You have the right to say no to requests that pull you away from your commitments. Your angels can help you when you feel overwhelmed and overcommitted...Your Guardian Angels enfold you with their loving wings and help you enjoy yourself as you accomplish everything on your list."
Cheryl Lee's message for the 'Power' card is this:
"The Power card rules the third chakra, the solar plexus chakra. This is where we experience our own sense of personal power. If you have drawn this card today, it is because Spirit is asking you to focus on your own sense of personal power---and claim it. Have you been hiding from your power or afraid to own it? Have you been feeling powerless or feeling you aren't strong enough? It's time to focus on your solar plexus, and start to build your sense of personal power. Sometimes there can be a drain from our solar plexus because we are unintentionally corded to another person---most often in close relationships. This energetic cord runs directly from our third chakra and attaches to the other person. We unknowingly let others siphon off our power. This can happen if we are enabling or trying to please someone. It can also happen if we fear losing the love of that person or if we feel attacked in some way. It is time for you to look closely at why this has happened to you and to ask your guides and angels to assist you with cutting that cord. This card also comes if we are in fear of claiming our power; of standing tall and showing the world exactly who we are. Most often, we have had experiences in our early years where we personally witnessed the misuse of power or had someone attempt to diminish our own. This was in the past though, and you know how power is not to be used. You also know that not claiming your own power does not serve you. It's time for you to claim YOU---to claim your life, and claim the fact that you are a powerful, incredible soul."
My message for you today is this:
Another powerful message for you on the heels of your message yesterday, and heading into the new year of new beginnings! I don't believe that I have ever been guided to use 2 separate decks by 2 different authors for your daily reading, but we are in some magnificent energy right now! I feel that the message these two cards are bringing to you today is to understand that 2014 is going to be a year where you will be asked to stand in your power and to share your own unique Light with the world and to remain committed to doing just that! There may be challenges, both on your time and your commitment to being your best self, but if you view these challenges as opportunities to 'recalibrate' and 'readjust' you will flow more easily through such situations and circumstances. I have stated SO many times that standing in your own personal power DOES NOT IMPLY disempowering another! We are leaving that competitive energy behind as we shift from the 'masculine' way of being into the cooperative, 'feminine' way of being as a society (masculine and feminine do not refer to gender in this instance). Cheryl Lee referred to our possible past experiences with 'power' and how we learned from those experiences. We are learning that claiming our own power---our own Light---is empowering to all around us, when we do so with Love. Presenting the world with your BEST and HIGHEST SELF can only bring good to the world! The commitment aspect of your message today is reminding you that to make a commitment to something means to make it a priority in your life. Make standing in your power and shining your own unique Light a priority and commit to striving to do your best to do so. We live in the physical and we are often pulled in many different directions by the circumstances of life. In those times when you are feeling overwhelmed, call on your guides and angels to assist you with finding your center and standing in your power and having the strength to PRIORITIZE and remain committed to what truly matters to you.
It is also interesting that Cheryl Lee brought up etheric cords in her message...I recently received an email from a former student asking me some questions about etheric cords...she had read my posting on my 'Blog & Events' page on this site about etheric cords and had further questions. As I know that there IS NO COINCIDENCE, only SYNCHRONICITY, I feel the need to point out today that it may be important for some of you reading this to go to that posting and read what I have written there about etheric cord cutting. I will be addressing some of Diane's questions in a further posting (thank you, Diane, for taking the time to ask the questions!), though not for a few days, as I will be busy with my own New Moon/New Year ceremonies over the next few days! Let me say that, due to having been very involved with family and friend gatherings this time of year, etheric cords are prevalent! If you are energetically sensitive, you may be feeling drained and fatigued, even if you have had your usual amount of rest, or you may be feeling a 'funk' that you know is not yours... In this case, it is imperative that you take the time to 'cut cords'...check out my posting (you will have to scroll back to find it...I think it may have been posted in May?). If you already know how to cut etheric cords, then this is your reminder to do so! We want to enter into the amazing manifestation energy of the New Moon on January 1st all clean and clear and carrying our own energy!!!
And remember...enter into 2014 with the COMMITMENT to stand in your POWER and to let your LIGHT shine! Your bless the world by doing so!
Blessed be...
Your card today is drawn from the 'Crystal Ally' card deck, authored by Naisha Aishan. No surprise that we are beginning this week with a POWERFUL card of transformation!!! Your card is the 'Evolution' card, which is aligned with the crystal 'Herderite'. Naisha's description of the crystal, Herderite, from her book, 'The Book of Stones', co-authored with Robert Simmons, is this:
"Herderite has come at this time as an extremely powerful tool for the evolution of human beings. While many stones until now have worked on the physical level as well as the spiritual, Herderite's purpose is to aid in making the physical shift to the higher planes...Herderite has surfaced at this time to aid humanity in the evolution of the brain...because of its effect on the brain it naturally stimulates psychic capacities and enhances one's ability to consciously process energetic information. It has a particularly strong effect on the third-eye and crown chakras because it is so stimulating to these brain areas...It has come to assist humanity in activating areas of the brain that will assist us in integrating more and more high-frequency Light energies...Herderite is uplifting and enlightening..."
Naisha's message for the card is this:
"When Herderite appears as your Ally, you are being asked to acknowledge your part in the total evolution of humanity at this time in history. Your choices and actions are like a drop in the pool, its ripples affecting everything else around it. Are your current motions---your thoughts and actions---moving you toward a higher state of evolution? Or are there ripples of past ways of being that need to be reformed or removed before you can experience your life on a higher level?
As with any Storm element card, Herderite heralds a time of great change. When Herderite appears, it is telling you that this particular time of change is greatly directed by the thoughts and actions that you take. You know in your heart the direction Spirit is asking you to move in. If you accept Spirit's guidance, your actions will cause ripples in the entire fabric of humanity, moving the spiritual evolution of us all forward a step.
Chakra: Seventh (crown) and etheric chakras
Affirmation: I allow my physical self to align with my Higher Self now. "
My message for you today is this:
WOW! WOW! WOW! What a powerful card to drop out of the deck for you as we begin the week and move into the energy of the upcoming New Moon on Wednesday, which falls on January 1st...the first day of the new year...DYNAMIC!
As I stated many times, in 2013, we were COMPELLED and PROPELLED to step into our authentic selves and to get our feet firmly planted on our spiritual path. This was due to the energies of the SHIFT, the global shift in consciousness which has been building and made a definite adjustment in December 2012. Those sensitive to energy felt the chaotic and tumultuous energies that abounded in 2013, while understanding that it was all for 'the greater good' and that we are indeed moving in a 'positive direction'.
Today, as we move toward 2014, you are being reminded of how your personal 'shift' in consciousness...your choosing to live your life more from your 'Higher Self' and in connection with the Divine...is far more impactful than you can even imagine! Often we do not 'see' how our actions and 'way of being' trickle out to influence others. DO NOT PLAY SMALL! YOU MAKE A DIFFERENCE! This is what you are meant to hear today! Take responsibility for the part that you play and get CLEAR with yourself about how you see yourself contributing to 'the greater good'...you will be asked to make just such a contribution in 2014. When you 'shine your Light', you anchor more Light into the world and that is so necessary!
In 2013, you did a lot of 'releasement' and letting go of old ways and habits that no longer served you...while this is obviously an ongoing process in our lives, it was a powerful theme for many and most prevalent in 2013. Now, when you look to 2014, understand that you have done a great deal of 'inner work' and you are now asked to strive to approach your life and relationships from your 'Higher Self', to the best of your ability. Naisha has presented the energy of Herderite to support you in this...it is not necessary to hold Herderite in your hand to experience the energy...it's energy and support are being offered to you through this reading and the card that came up for you today... TRUST. ALLOW. BELIEVE. RECEIVE.
Blessed be...
Your cards today jumped out of the 'Gateway Oracle Cards' deck, authored by Denise Linn. I have had the privilege of spending time with Denise and having had her share her learnings...once at the 'Divine Wisdom' conference in February/13 in Scottsdale, AZ and then at the 'Celebrate Your Life' conference in Sedona, AZ in November/13. She is a beautiful Soul, who is approachable, accessible and very loving and humble, while being a strong spiritual messenger at the same time! My friend, Patti, took in the full day post-conference seminar with Denise and I know that she found it to be a powerful experience!
(I will post a picture of us with Denise on my 'Blog & Events' page).
Two cards leapt out of the deck together today...the 'Believing in Magic' card, and the 'Exceeding Expectations' card. As always, when this happens, the two cards are completely complimentary to each other and enhance the message being brought to you today. Denise's messages for the cards are as follows:
'Believing in Magic' ~
"True magic is abounding in my life! It is indeed a magical Universe. Spiritual dimensions and mystical realms are only a thought away. The key to opening these doors is to trust in something you cannot see or hear. You can have doubts yet still believe in a vast and mysterious universe, where signs, symbols, and coincidences reveal secret messages. Even if your faith is the size of a mustard seed, magic CAN abound. Believe!"
'Exceeding Expectations' ~
"I soar into excellence! This is the time to dream big and stretch yourself. Exceed your own expectations...and definitely the expectations that others have of you. Envisage that in the days ahead, you will be stepping beyond what others anticipate for you, and so it shall be. You may have been playing small, but now is your chance to dream big. Expect miracles. Believe that the best will occur for you, and it will. Make plans---big plans---for the future. Do not act as if you are inadequate in order to make others feel secure. In the months ahead, you'll be exceeding inner and outer expectations. Get ready to fly!"
My message for you today is this:
We are moving toward a NEW MOON on JANUARY 1st/14...WOW!!! WHAT AN AWESOME OPPORTUNITY FOR MANIFESTATION!!!! I have spoken here before about the full moon being great energically to support us in 'releasement' and the new moon being great energetically in supporting us in 'manifestation'. In 2014, the new moon falls on the first day of a new year, when people traditionally set their 'new years resolutions' and we have a powerful new moon ON THAT DAY to assist us with it's strong manifestation energy!
January will be a great month for being clear about what it is that you want to pull into your life experience, because there will be another new moon on January 30th also! Can you feel it? In 2013 you were compelled and propelled to step out of old patterns and ways of being in order to step more authentically onto your spiritual path...that felt pretty chaotic and uncomfortable at times, didn't it? But you have done a great deal of the work in that regard, and you have gone 'within' to be REAL about your PERSONAL relationship with the Divine.
THE VEIL IS THINNING and that is a beautiful thing for we, as individuals and as a society, yet, whenever you shake up the 'status quo' there are moments of resistance and adjustment and that was absolutely the experience for many in 2013. Your message today is to first of all believe in the magic of the Universe and all the potentiality and possibilities available to you! You are then being asked, as we move toward the new moon on January 1st, to take the time to 'go within' and dream the biggest dream for yourself! Do not be shy! It is NOT in EGO to shine your LIGHT! You have your own unique contribution to make in bringing Light to the world! Be brave and set your sights high...begin by asking 'How may I serve?' and then DO NOT FILTER THROUGH YOUR MIND THE THOUGHTS THAT COME TO YOU...RATHER, FILTER THOSE THOUGHTS THROUGH YOUR HEART. Believe in the magic of the Universe that supports you... Spend some time being clear within yourself that you intend to shine your Light and utilize the amazing manifestation energy of this upcoming new moon on January 1st to assist you in your creation. There is NO COINCIDENCE, and the fact that the first new moon of 2014 falls on January 1st is a Divine gift to you, so take it, and soar with it, because in that way you are honoring the Divine! I am sooo excited for you!
Blessed be...
Your card this Boxing Day was drawn from the 'Archangel Oracle Cards' deck, authored by Doreen Virtue. The card that dropped out of the deck for you is the 'All Is Well' card, which is aligned with the energy of Archangel Jeremiel. Doreen's message for the card is this:
"Archangel Jeremiel: Everything is happening exactly as it is supposed to, with hidden blessings you will soon understand."
My message for you today is this:
Archangel Jeremiel's name means 'Mercy of God'...he specializes in assisting us to heal our emotions. Many experience Jeremiel's aura as violet in color and it is no surprise that the crystal, Amethyst, is said to resonate with his energy as Amethyst is a stone of harmony and Divine connection.
Jeremial is stepping forward for you as we close the 2013 year, to assist you in sorting through all the emotions you may be processing regarding occurrences over the course of 2013 (which was a somewhat tumultuous year for many). Jeremial wishes you to see it all from a 'higher perspective' and from the place of knowing that 'all is well', which is NOT to say that 'all was always comfortable'!!! When you call on your guides and angels, and on the Archangels, to help you navigate your way through what you may view as 'challenges' within your life, they will help you to see that what you viewed as a challenge may not be a challenge at all. How did some of your perceived challenges shift your direction and set you on a course that was completely in your 'greater good'? Jeremiel will help you to recognize the blessings within various situations and will help you to heal your emotions surrounding certain incidents and occurrences. Strive to use the viewpoint of LOVE, and ask Jeremiel to assist you in doing so.
Perhaps you will sit with an amethyst or wear an amethyst or carry an amethyst and ask that it's energy of harmony and Divine connection pervade your body and your aura as you feel Archangel Jeremiel's energy also swirl around and envelope you. Breathe in the peaceful, harmonious feelings and know that 'all is well' and everything is progressing forward as it is meant to, even if you can't 'see it' or 'experience it' yet. Your faith that it is so is what will bring such circumstances into your experience. Notice in the image on the card above that Archangel Jeremiel is showering you with beautiful golden Light. Allow yourself to reside in that Light and permit it to permeate your space and to heal your emotions, and so it is...
All IS well...know this...have faith, and realize that you are completely supported and loved!
Blessings to you...
Wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas Day!
I am grateful to all who take the time to visit this blog for the daily card readings...it brings me great joy to share the messages with you and my prayer is that doing so serves you in some way!
Enjoy your day today!
Blessings to you,
Linda
Your card this Christmas Eve is drawn from the 'Mary, Queen of Angels' deck, authored by Doreen Virtue. Your card is the 'Quiet' card, and Doreen's message for the card is this:
"I go into peaceful silence, and I listen."
My message for you today is this:
Mother Mary has gifted you with the perfect card on this day before Christmas. Of course, I chose her deck because Mother Mary's nurturing, gentle energy will serve you well at this sometimes hectic, high energy time of year. How appropriate that she has given you the 'Quiet' card...a reminder for all of us that it IS possible to find that peaceful, 'quiet' space within, even though you may be surrounded by a cacophony of noise and people and ALL kinds of energy! This beautiful time of year, when we gather with family and friends is a wonderful way to end the year. Still, the 'busyness' of it all, and the dynamics of multiple gatherings and bringing many people together can feel overwhelming at these emotionally charged times, especially for those who are highly sensitive to energy. Mother Mary is advising you to that it IS possible to find a few moments to be still, breathe deeply and to rest in the stillness of your breath, no matter what circumstances you may find yourself in.
If you are feeling that you are carrying around energy that you have 'picked up' from another, and that is not yours, ask your angels to assist you in clearing away that energy as you breathe deeply and allow the energy that is not yours to be released. This is NOT in judgment that someone else's energy is 'bad' or 'negative' energy, only that it is not YOUR energy, and to be fully present to share of yourself means to share YOUR energy! Remember that the love energy ALWAYS remains, whenever you clear yourself energetically.
Mother Mary is also encouraging you to find some time over the holiday season, to just be QUIET... Give yourself the gift of quiet reflection (without feeling 'guilty' for taking this time for yourself!). Find a peaceful, quiet place, close your eyes, breathe gently and just allow yourself to BE... It is during such times that you will feel the presence of your angels, including Mother Mary, who has presented to you today, acknowledging that you ARE supported and unconditionally loved by the Divine. Mother Mary is asking you to enter that quiet space within and to allow yourself to be enveloped in angelic love and peace. Give yourself this gift...the gift of 'quiet' and feel your Soul be filled with calm and connection to the Divine.
Blessed be...
There is no card reading for today...I took my daughter to the airport this morning as she returns to live in Brazil and I am subsequently having a 'me' day...missing her already!!!
Wishing you a blessed day of peace and gratitude for all the blessings in your life!
Be sure to hug the ones you love today! I will post a reading for tomorrow, Dec. 24th/13.
Blessings to you,
Linda
