Your card today was drawn from the 'Healing With the Angels' deck, authored by Doreen Virtue. Your card is the 'Dreams' card, and Doreen's message for the card is this:
"Pay attention to your dreams right now. Keep a dream journal."
My message for your card today is this:
Wow! Have you been experiencing a lot of lucid dreaming recently as well as vivid dream recall? Lucid dreaming means to BE AWARE that you are dreaming, while in the dream state. So, you may be having some sort of strange experience in your dream and then while STILL in the dream state you realize that, 'Hey, I am dreaming this', yet you remain in the dream state. This is a natural phenomenon, and can actually be fun and informative! As for vivid dream recall; that is when you wake up to remember graphically all the intricate details from the dream you had, and for a few moments, it's as though your are still 'in it'. When you are fully awake, and the conscious mind takes over, you will retain those details briefly, but not for long. That is why some people keep a 'dream journal' by their bedside, so that they can record the images and details of a dream and then look for messages that may have been conveyed within the dream. I have spoken many times about the 'cosmic energies' that influence our Earthly experience. I do not claim, in any way, to have in depth understanding about the cosmos, solar flares, planetary alignments, etc---but I DO know that I feel energetic shifts and that those energies absolutely impact my life. (I am SO grateful to Elizabeth Peru and Brenda Brush, and others, who lovingly share their knowledge of and understanding of the cosmic energies, so that we can utilize these energies and move through them with ease and grace!) During certain cosmic events, our dream experiences can be intensified, and we have been in just such energy recently...
We experienced wonderful Black Moon energy yesterday evening! When there is a second New Moon within a calendar month, it is called a 'Black Moon'---there was a New Moon on March 1st/14 and then again on March 30th/14. January also had a Black Moon (New Moons on January 1st and January 30th). To have a Black Moon in January and then the following March is astrologically very rare and yesterday's Black Moon was (and IS...the New or Full Moon energy impacts us for 24 hours either side of it) POWERFUL! I have stated before that New Moon energy is typically manifestation energy (Full Moon energy is characteristically about releasement and letting go...New Moon about manifestation and new beginnings). This Black Moon's energy is COMPELLING us to take action and to follow our DREAMS! THAT is the other aspect of your message today! There is great potential to make big changes---you are being called to action! Can you feel it? Be brave, be bold and be audacious enough to ask from the Universe what you DREAM for yourself! Take guided action in bringing your thoughts and desires (some of which may have been revealed to you in the dream state!) into reality! YOU CAN DO IT! You are SO supported!
Blessed be...
Your card today came flying out of the 'Crystal Ally Card Deck', authored by Naisha Aishan. Your card is the 'Evolution ~ Herderite' card, and 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 a 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 they ripples of past ways of being that need to be reformed or removed before you can experience your life on a higher level? 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: Crown and etheric chakras
Affirmation: I allow my physical self to align with my Higher Self now.
My message for you today is this:
When I picked the card up off the floor, where it had 'flown' out of the deck to, and I saw the image of humanity taking flight, I 'got' it! Perfect! This is an excellent card to wrap up your messages of the week and to pull them all together. While I have not been guided to suggest this previously, I DO suggest that you read back over the messages of this past week and see how they have led you to your message today.
Herderite is a relatively rare mineral, found most abundantly in Brazil. This crystal's energy supports and encourages the Divine within us...that is a piece of Herderite in the photo above. Herderite can be colorless, pale yellow, green, brownish, gray and sometimes lavendar. As stated in the 'Book of Stones', "Herderite has come at this time as an extremely powerful tool for the evolution of human beings."
What will be your unique Soul contribution for the betterment of humanity? Your contributions 'ripple out' in ways that you can not even begin to imagine! Be conscious and aware about the energy that you are sharing and projecting out into the World. To quote the country singer, Brad Paisley (didn't expect him to be quoted within the context of this message, I bet!): "Today is the first page in a 365 page book. Make it a good one."
Blessed be...
Your card today flipped out of the 'Divine Guidance' fractal art deck, authored by Cheryl Lee Harnish. Your card is the 'Gratitude' card, and Cheryl Lee's message for the card is this:
"Gratitude is a very powerful energy which can open both the heart and mind to all the wondrous blessings we are given. Take time each and every day to offer your deepest, heartfelt gratitude for all that you have and are given. Make a conscious effort to look for all the good that is flowing into your life. Send your love to all those you cherish and love. Your acknowledgement of the Divine flow, that supports and provides for you, opens your energy in a powerful way. You will become your own bright Light..."
My message for you today is this:
I have expressed many times in your daily card readings that 'the Universe loves gratitude' and how being in the energy of gratitude is actually powerful manifestation energy. The age-old adage, "Count your blessings", has stood the test of time for good reason!
When my 3 children were young, (around 7, 9 and 11, I believe) I remember being frustrated with their sense of 'entitlement' at one period in time...it seemed that they were complaining often about why they couldn't have or do this or that. I determined that they write in a gratitude journal each night...they had to write 3 things they were grateful for that day...in an effort to shift their perspective from 'why can't/don't I?' to 'I feel grateful'. I still enjoy reading those journals when I come across them. Of course, there were those entries saying, 'I am grateful that my mom & dad love me' and such. But there were also those entries that showed that they had given thought such as, 'I am grateful that, even though we lost our play-off hockey game today, I scored a sweet goal and I won the 'Heart and Hustle' award'.
We ALL need reminders to 'count our blessings' at times...that is just part of the human experience...and the truth is that there are definitely those life circumstances where it can be VERY difficult to find the blessings within a situation. Still, the Divine wants you to know that it is important to reach for the energy of GRATITUDE when you are able, even if it is in a small way, so that you can allow the Universe to assist you in manifesting what you desire.
You can always find SOMETHING to be grateful for...consciously strive to focus upon that, rather than the 'lack'. Witness how the energy of gratitude sincerely raises your vibration and thereby attracts good into your life!
Blessed be...
Your card today is drawn from the 'Path of the Soul' fractal art deck, authored by Cheryl Lee Harnish. Your card is the 'In Flow' card, the Universe has given you the PERFECT card to follow up the message brought forth for you yesterday! Love it!
Cheryl Lee's message for the card is this:
"This is expression in full flow. Let yourself be heard, let yourself shine! Time to take centre stage. This is all about feeling the universal flow of energy, joy, creativity and communication. Sing, dance and let yourself be seen in all your glory. Set your creative inner being free! Express all those things inside you that you would normally hide from the world."
My message for you today is this:
When Cheryl Lee states in her message, 'Time to take centre stage', this does not imply that you need be on a STAGE to shine your Light... This means that it is time to acknowledge your unique talents and abilities and to OWN them and express them...however that looks for you. Understand that YOU are the STAR in your LIFE. You are being encouraged by the Universe to feel the flow of that and to express out into the world your Divine self. It takes courage to allow our authentic selves to be revealed, and yet, think back to when you have done so and how joyful and RIGHT it feels when you let your Light shine; not from a place of Ego, but from a heart-centred place of service and sharing of yourself. It is at those times that we truly feel that we are in our PURPOSE. We are ALL creative Beings and the means by which we express that creativity out into the world are as diverse as each snowflake that falls from the sky...when you examine these snowflakes closely, no two are exactly alike...how beautiful is that? The Universe is reminding you today that there is no other YOU...only YOU can be YOU. To understand this frees you up from the need to self-criticize or compare yourself to others, thereby easing any anxiety you may have about expressing yourself fully. Be brave. Own your talents and abilities. Share your special talents from a heart-centred place. Experience the joy that doing so brings to you and those around you!
Blessed be...
Your card today dropped out of the 'Return of Spirit' fractal art deck, authored by Cheryl Lee Harnish, and your card is the 'Celestial' card.
Cheryl Lee's message for the card is this:
The Celestial card brings with it Divine energies of the benevolent beings who are here to assist you with the human journey of incarnation. Perhaps you have been struggling to understand exactly what your purpose or soul's role is on earth. You could doubt whether you even have a purpose, or if you hold any special gifts or qualities. This card has come to you today to reassure you that you are indeed uniquely gifted in your own special way. The Celestial beings who love and support you here want to ease your worry and doubt.
Most people find their purpose almost as if by accident. And although it would be nice to have a magical scroll fall from the heavens, which stated clearly what we are here to do, it isn't going to happen that way. We must discover this for ourselves. It is the act of struggle, and effort itself, which reveals to us our strengths and gifts. Each unique aspect of you and your life path, is revealed in its own Divine time.
Your Divine celestial beings are asking you to hold on to your faith, to trust the journey of discovery you are taking, and to believe in yourself. They ask that you simply take action and step forward---whether you feel confident or not. It's the movement forward that matters most here. You just might make a discovery about yourself in a way which you least expect!
The entire Universe is supporting you at this time. Do not give up on yourself. You are not alone or forgotten down here. Spirit is here with you, loving and guiding you each step of the way. You are on the path you are meant to be on and doing exactly what you should be, to take you to where you need to go.
My message for you today:
Perfectly said, Cheryl Lee! I say 'Thanks', I say 'Amen'!
Blessed be...
Your card today dropped to the floor from the 'Angel Tarot' deck, authored by Doreen Virtue & Radleigh Valentine. Your card is #3, 'The Empress ~ Archangel Gabriel' major arcana card from this deck. Within a tarot card deck, there are major and minor arcana cards and some choose to separate these two components of the deck. I choose to leave the tarot deck intact and allow whichever of the cards, from either the major or minor arcana, to reveal themselves as Spirit determines. There are 22 major arcana cards and the major arcana cards in this deck have each been aligned with the energy of a specific Archangel. These cards relate to major themes within our lives. The minor arcana cards fall into 4 suits: fire, water, air and earth. The minor arcana cards tend to provide us with information about the details of our lives.
Doreen and Radleigh's message for your card today is this:
"Your creativity and hard work are bringing you great rewards, according to this card. You have the Midas touch right now, so anything you nurture and give your loving attention to will flourish...Whether you're trying to give birth to a child, nurture life into plants or pets, or help a new project or business to grow, your creative endeavors will be successful. Enjoy the beautiful things in life, knowing that you deserve to be wonderfully provided for. Take excellent care of your body with massage, yoga; or anything that makes you feel healthy, vibrant, and luxurious.
My message for you today is this:
I think of Archangel Gabriel as 'the angel of communication'. She also presents to me as feminine in form, although Archangel's are neither masculine or feminine. They present as male or female, based on the energies and specialties that they share with us here on Earth. Gabriel's name means, 'Messenger of God', and many experience her aura as Copper in color. Crystals said to align with her energy are moonstone, aquamarine and citrine.
Gabriel has presented for you today to encourage you to give birth to your dreams. She advises that there IS abundance available to you, and that you need to believe that, even if it is not evident in your life at this very moment in time...your FAITH is a necessary component in allowing that abundance to come to you. Reside in the energy of feeling nurtured and provided for and in so doing, you invite the abundance to come to you. Express your desires and dreams clearly and then trust that you are supported in pursuing them! Take guided action in moving toward your goals. The Universe supports you! Call upon Archangel Gabriel to inspire you and to give you the courage, opportunities and faith to bring your dreams into reality!
Blessed be...
Your card today was drawn from the 'Daily Guidance From Your Angels' oracle card deck, authored by Doreen Virtue. Your card is 'Listen', and Doreen's message for the card is this:
"Quiet your mind, Beloved One, and listen to our gentle reassurance that everything has been taken care of. Stay in a a quiet and receptive state, without worrying about the exact nature of your desire's manifestation. A quiet mind and body hears us quickly and clearly. This is our request to you: Listen."
My message for you today is this:
You have been receiving the same message in a different way, all week long...
Know that the Angelic Realm, your Guides and the Universe as a whole, longs to support you on your journey! You have been reminded to be open and aware for the messages being shared with you---and as reiterated in today's message---to be aware often means to 'listen'. To 'listen' simply implies to be in a receptive state. Instead of expending your energy in asking and re-asking your question, once you have asked just KNOW that you have been heard and relax into trusting and allowing the guidance and messages to be delivered to you. If your mind is so full of the 'dialogue' and chatter of ASKING, how can you be open to hearing or receiving the guidance? I believe that it was the psychic medium, John Holland, who pointed out that, 'Once you have placed your order with the waiter in a restaurant, you don't keep calling upon him to place your order over and over again. You trust that you have placed your order and know that what you requested is being prepared for you even though you don't see it happening. You trust that, when the time is right, it will be delivered to you.'
John Holland uses this analogy to counsel us that, 'so it is with the Universe'...place your order (request) and then trust that you will receive your order (response) when it is ready (Divine Timing). Do not get mired down in the energy of ASKING and thereby stymy the energy of RECEIVING!
All week you have been reminded through various messengers (Yemanja; Archangels Jophiel and Michael; Guardian Angels) that Divine guidance and support is available to you. Ask, and then allow yourself to be a clear conduit for the messages to come through. Do not try to force or script how the messages will come to you. Trust in the Universe to bring the messages through to you in the best possible way. ASK. TRUST. ALLOW. BELIEVE.
It is that simple and that profound!
Blessed be...
