My husband and I leave for Brazil on Wednesday, October 1st/14, to visit our 'kids' who are living there! We are so excited to spend time with them! Our daughter and her boyfriend are newly situated in Sao Paolo, and I can't wait to see their new home, and to experience this city that we have previously only 'flown through'. Our son and his wife now live in the beautiful coastal city of Vila Velha---we love spending time at the ocean and venturing around the gorgeous surrounding area! The photo posted here was taken at sunrise on a morning hike we took to a historical monastery on a vista above Vila Velha during our visit last February---breathtaking!
I will not be posting your daily card readings consistently during our 3 weeks in Brazil; but if I have the time, and feel so inspired; I may post the odd reading here and there, so watch for that!
Blessings to you!
Linda
This is your daily card reading for Tuesday, September 30th/14. Your card spun out of the 'Path of the Soul' fractal art deck, authored by Cheryl Lee Harnish. Your card is the 'Revealed' card, and it is pictured with these photos that my dear, dear friend Jan, captured and then gifted to me yesterday, of a rainbow positioned directly over our home! How awesome is that? I am so deeply grateful for the gift of Jan's friendship in my life, and for the beautiful reminder that special friendships reveal the rainbows in our lives---especially when we are unable to see them for ourselves! (This photo does not do Jan's photos justice, by the way---they are gorgeous!) A true blessing! Thank you, from my heart, Jan! I just love ya!
Cheryl Lee's message for the 'Revealed' card is this:
"Do you know how beautiful you truly are? It is time to stop hiding from the world. The Universe is calling you. You have so much to offer, so much to give. This card is a reminder for you to see who and what you truly are. You are a part of the One. You are beautiful and perfect in every way.
When you hide yourself you are with-holding, not only your energy---but your Love. Love for yourself and and Love for others. Embrace yourself and all your quirks---we all have them!
Let yourself be free. Let yourself shine."
My message for you today:
Like all the vibrant colours of a rainbow, this fractal art card is brilliantly coloured! The colours of this card stand out and capture your attention---just as you are meant to 'stand out' in your own unique way! There are infinite means of self-expression...how will you express yourself out into the World? Revealing your Love to the World can be as 'simple' as a kind word to a stranger; or in giving a very thoughtful gift 'just because' to a friend! Not everyone is meant to express themselves in a large, public forum (as I have stated so often) and this does not mean that your impact is not significant. ANYTIME you share Love, you are enhancing and uplifting all whom you come in contact with, and you are actually shifting the vibration of the planet! Remember the Beatles song, 'All you need is Love, Love...Love is all you need'? Love is the highest vibration and it is a powerful energy! Why then, are we often 'shy' about expressing our Love? Because it is the AUTHENTIC aspect of who we are, and to reveal our authentic selves can feel intimidating at times---we have learned to hide ourselves away, in order to 'protect' ourselves, and to conform and fulfill the roles that others may have assigned to us. No self-judgment about that...we ALL do so in various ways and at various times in our lives. Today, you are being asked to be brave enough to acknowledge your own brilliance and to then lovingly reveal it and express it out into the World. The Divine did not intend for you to hide away the gifts that were bestowed upon you...how will you shine your Light?
Blessed be...
This is your daily card reading for Monday, September 29th/14. Your card blew out of the 'Gateway Oracle' card deck, authored by Denise Linn (and how appropriate was THAT, considering how the wind is raging here in south/central Alberta right now?). Your card is the 'Soaring into Joy' card, and Denise's message for the card is this:
"Childlike wonder fills my life...
Card meaning: Celebrate and live life with glee! Clap your hands in delight! Be madcap and spontaneous! All is truly well.
The Universe wants you to know: Allow a childlike wonder and joy to fill your entire being. Your happiness makes a difference to others, for as you experience true delight, this radiates out from you like ripples in a still pool and touches the souls of many. Take time for yourself. Find ways to experience joy in every moment. Even when doing the most mundane, boring, or gritty tasks, look for ways to find genuine happiness. If you have trouble finding pleasure in certain situations, start small, and eventually you will soar. To feel joyful is a gift. It rejuvenates you and heals the world.
Questions to ask yourself: What gives me the greatest pleasure? What might be blocking my joy? What's the key to experiencing more bliss in my life?
My message for you today is this:
Sometimes, happiness and joy are a CHOICE. Radical thought, eh? Yet, sometimes, if you shift the way that you look at or approach something, you can shift the energy or vibration around it. Yes...you ARE that powerful! This is not to imply that you deny or squash any emotions that come to you; but rather that you allow them to flow through you and then CHOOSE to embrace a different vibration or emotion (as Panache Desai states, "Emotions are energy in motion'). You have no doubt heard the phrase, "What you focus upon expands." So...today, choose to focus upon JOY... See what happens... I guarantee that you will not only impact how YOU move through your day, but you will also impact those whom you come in contact with. Just for today...soar into joy!
Blessed be...
This is your daily card reading for Friday, September 25th/14. Your card erupted out of the
'Goddess Guidance' deck, authored by Doreen Virtue. Your card is the 'Pele ~ Divine Passion' card, and Doreen's message for the card is this:
"Be honest with yourself: What is your heart's true desire?
Message from Pele:
If you listen to the sound of your heart and breath, you'll recognize the ancient rhythms of your own internal drumming. This forever connects you to the Mother of all creation, and to the sound of the planet Earth. These rhythms can't be faked or forged; they're natural and eternal. What part of you are you trying to ignore? What part of you has been overly concerned with pleasing others, to the detriment of hearing the sounds of your own rhythm? Dear child, reach out and extend your arms to embrace your dreams. They're just as much a part of nature as are the trees, animals and sunsets. Don't your own dreams deserve the same respect that you accord everyone and everything that you love? Listen to them, my child. Listen to your dreams. They'll activate the powerful eruption of passion in your life. Don't be afraid of your own passion, for it will propel you naturally and will excite and invigorate you. When you dance to the rhythms of your life, you're truly alive in all ways!
Various meanings of this card: *Make sure your career matches your true interests. * Take a class or start a hobby that really excites you. * Change jobs. * Go on a wonderful trip.* Invest time and money in manifesting your dreams. * Give yourself permission to go for it. * Start a new business. * Make an honest assessment of how you spend your time. * List your priorities. *"
My message for you today is this:
Pele (pronounced PAY-lay) is the Hawaiian Goddess of volcanos. Just as many cultures use fire in ceremony to release the 'old' and make way for the 'new'; so does Pele implement the energy of fire to assist us in igniting our passions. Pele's energy is cathartic-- as the heat of the flame transforms rock from solid to molten form within a volcano; Pele inspires us to seek the fire within so that our own lives will 'flow' for our greater good.
This card and Pele's message fall in perfectly with the messages that have come forward for you this week---you are being urged to be honest with yourself and to take the next steps in living your life in an authentic way. This is not to discount your past and all the experiences that you integrated and experienced there! Your past is what brought you here---ALL OF IT! No self-judgment or recrimination! Having said that, NOW is the time to incorporate the lessons learned and to move forward in your life by following your passion, rather than remaining 'safely' in the 'status quo'. How do you know when you are following your heart's desire? It is when you feel that sense of excitement and underlying 'knowing' that this is right for you, even as you may also feel some trepidation and nervousness about what you may need to do to get there. Living a passion directed life does not mean that you NEVER experience anxiety or even fear...it means that you move forward REGARDLESS of that fear, knowing that the fear may actually serve you as a guidepost as to how best to proceed.
It also means that the over-riding emotion is excitement and anticipation and PASSION! When people follow their passion, they make immeasurable contributions to humanity---it is NOT a selfish act to live in your passion---when you are in your passion, you serve yourself and others! So, go for IT---whatever IT is for you! Know that there is no one else on Earth who can express themselves out into the world in the same way you can...there is a Divine spark of passion within you just waiting to be expressed as only YOU can! Call upon Pele to support you on your journey.
Blessed be...
This is your daily card reading for Thursday, September 25th/14. Your card flew out of the 'Ascended Masters' deck, authored by Doreen Virtue. Your card is the 'Go Now ~ Serapis Bey' card, and Doreen's message for the card is this:
"It's time for you to go, either away from a toxic situation or toward something desirable. This card signals that it's the right time to make your move. The conditions are ripe and perfect, and the universe is poised to support your move.
Additional meanings for this card: * Quit your job. * Leave a toxic relationship. * Move to a new location. * Start a new project without delay. * Take a vacation. * No more excuses---just do it! *"
My message for you today is this:
Serapis Bey (pronounced Sir-RAP-is Bay) is an Ascended Master who is a premier 'life coach' and motivator in caring for ourselves on the spiritual, physical and mental levels. He is an Egyptian God of ascension and many see him as a link between Heaven and Earth.
Serapis Bey has presented for you today as we have just experienced the New Moon energy last evening, and we continue to reside in New Moon energy today. Of course, New Moon is all about new beginnings. Serapis Bey is urging you to take the next step in making and effecting positive changes in your life. In truth, you have been working toward this change for some time and you have reached that place where you must now take that 'leap of faith'! This could be in relation to either a spiritual, emotional or physical aspect of your life. Perhaps there is a friendship in your life that no longer serves you, and may even 'pull you down'; perhaps you are in a toxic situation at the work place that needs addressing; perhaps you have been putting off exercising or caring for your physical body in a way that you 'know you should'---whatever first comes to mind for you in relation to taking that next step, know that Serapis Bey is there for you to support you in that! Call upon him as you take action and feel how the Universe is championing for you! Know that this is a positive move for you, and that only good can come from it. YOU CAN DO THIS!
Blessed be...
New Moon today!
This is your daily card reading for Wednesday, September 24th/14. Your card flew out of the 'Healing With the Fairies' card deck authored by Doreen Virtue. Your card is 'Honouring Your True Feelings', and Doreen's message for the card is this:
"By drawing this card, you're urged to listen to, and follow, your true feelings. Do not betray yourself, or rationalize that it's acceptable to deny your inner voice of truth...
You have an inner counselor who is very wise. This source of wisdom speaks to you in both physical and emotional ways. Perhaps you have gut feelings that are speaking loudly to you, or physical reactions to situations, such as a tightened jaw or a nervous stomach. Your heart may be drawing you toward a particular geographical location, a specific career, or a
certain type of relationship. You may feel compelled to leave a particular situation that is unacceptable.
The fairies know the importance of heeding their own feelings, and they ask you to do the same. They say, "Please don't discount what you know to be true in your heart. Follow your emotions, as they are your inner compass that will steer you home and keep you warm, safe, supported, and joyous." If you're unclear about which emotions you're experiencing, write down your thoughts and feelings in a journal to gain clarity and understanding.
Affirmation: I listen to, honour, and follow my true feelings, knowing that they are answers to my prayers."
My message for you today is this:
Wow! Excellent card to come forward for you today, considering the energy of the current New Moon, and the overlying cosmic energies of the day!
As Elizabeth Peru (of DeltaWaves.com.au), informs us in her 'Tip-Off Global Energy Forecast', the cosmic energies are encouraging the following for us today:
"You will likely feel under some pressure today. What sort of pressure? Well, it is soul, bursting through the surface of your skin, demanding that you take the leading role in your life. Soul is talking to you personally (heart to head) and desiring to lead. Drop the control and trust. My advice is to do what feels good in your heart and you will not go wrong."
Elizabeth's message for today tellingly melds with what the fairies have presented for you also! Beautiful synchronicity! We are also in New Moon energy today, and the energy of this New Moon urges us to truly recognize what our Higher Self is saying to us in regards to how to best move forward in living a Soul-filled life.
Fairy energy abounds these days, as in the Northern hemisphere, we experienced Fall Equinox on September 22nd. We are in the autumn season...a time of harvest...of 'reeping what we have sewn'. Be conscious of the seeds that you have planted and take a heart-centered look at your 'garden'. Consciously choose, from that heart-centered place, the seeds that you will plant for the future. Honour what your Higher Self speaks to you through your authentic feelings. Ask the Fairies to assist you with this. Fairy energy is powerful, but also playful. Their energy is strongly aligned with the Earth and Mother Nature, and their vibration is such that they are more easily accessible to us than other aspects of the Angelic Realm. They have presented for you today, on this powerful New Moon, to support you in making the connection to your Higher Self, and the emotions and feelings that act as your spiritual guidances system. There is magic about---embrace and utilize it for your Soul's greater good!
Blessed be...
This is your daily card reading for Tuesday, September 23rd/14. Your card dropped out of the 'Angel Tarot' deck, authored by Doreen Virtue and Radleigh Valentine. Your card is the major arcana card, 'The Emperor ~ Archangel Michael', and Doreen and Radleigh's message for the card is this:
"It's important to cultivate logic, discipline, and order right now. This card signifies that although your dreams are valid and sound, they still need guidelines and organization so that they can manifest properly. Create a detailed plan for how you'll proceed, and maintain kind but authoritative control over how that plan is implemented.
Feel empowered to take a leadership role in your career and any projects you're working on. Structure and order are your friends as you move from the preparation stage into the execution of your plans. Believe in your ability to be a positive and diplomatic leader. Get organized so that you can be more effective.
Additional meanings of this card: *The desire to be a success.* Stability.* Making wise choices. * Security. * Government agencies. * Law enforcement. * The respect of others. *Fatherhood. *
My message for you today is this:
The major arcana cards within this deck deal with the larger issues or themes within our lives. An Archangel is aligned with each major arcana card, and Archangel Michael is aligned with your card today. Archangel Michael's name means, 'he who is like God', and many experience Michael's aura as royal purple in color. Archangel Michael is the supreme protector and he also assists us with our life purpose. He has presented for you today to indicate that you are on the right track and you must stand in your power in order to bring your desired outcome to fruition. Call upon Michael for guidance and support in moving forward in the best possible way.
Blessed be...
