BLESSINGS TO YOU ON YOUR NEW BEGINNINGS

Beloved,

I don’t know about you but these last couple of weeks have been like I am on a merry go round. Everyone on the merry go round is going to the same place but their mode of transportation is different. Some are on a stationary horse, others on a stallion that goes up and down and others are holding onto the young ones so they are standing and being a guardian and others are sitting in the seats that stay put. Which one are you? I have felt that I have been on each mode. Sometimes being a guardian where I am helping or guiding someone. Sometimes I am so very peaceful and just sitting there enjoying the ride but being with my own thoughts. Sometimes I am on a quiet steed where I know that life is moving but I am being more of an observer of what is happening and what others are up to. Sometimes I am on this beautiful stallion and I am racing to the finish line because I KNOW and FEEL the glorious ride of life.

The last couple of weeks has brought up feelings and emotions that I “thought” I had surmounted and was finally done with. Surprise, they came back again just so I could “play” with them again. Some were downright uncomfortable and painful. Some were exhilarating, ie….A grackle landed on my bird feeder. Have you even seen a grackle up close? I never have but it is such a beautiful bird and quite large for my bird feeder which is one that is set up to feed the smaller birds like the goldfinches. I have never seen one that was all alone, they travel in bunches as they pick at the ground and they fly as one. I have always been amazed as to how they know when the whole flock is going to fly to another spot, they are totally in sync. I knew this bird was sent to me bearing a message as he was all ALONE and there were no others around because I looked everywhere.

I went to my Animal-Speak book by Ted Andrews to check out the meaning of GRACKLE.the Keynote is: OVERCOMING EXCESS AND EMOTIONAL LIFE CONGESTION. How powerful is that? It is so beautiful, about its head and shoulders are iridescent feathers that change from blue to green to purple or bronze, depending on the light. This coloring often reflects a need for those to whom the grackle comes to look at what is going on in their life differently. It says that situations are not what they appear to be and you may not be looking at them correctly – particularly anything dealing with the emotions. The grackle showing up is a sign to help you clear the emotions, especially feelings of guilt. Emotions that are not dealt with can congest our life, aggravating or even creating congestion in the body at some level. And..this before I came down with a supposed “cold”. Most illness is symbolic. Congestion can tell us that we are holding in our emotions. It can reflect a refusal to take in new life and new approaches to life, and so we become congested with old emotions.

I did something I have never done before. I left this book open to the page on Grackle as a reminder to me to read it over and over again so I would be reminded to release the emotions and look at them differently. It was such a blessing as I went through the turmoils of this particular period. Look for the messages that Spirit or the Universe is sending you. WE are not alone and there is help if we just ask. It may not show up as expect but be aware of your surroundings and events, there are messages for you.
I received another “sign” as I was pleading with Archangel Michael to sever the cords between me and this other person with love and then asked St. Germaine of the Violet Flame to cauterize both ends and bring the cords to the sun so they could be transformed back into Light. I do this when I need help in releasing emotions between me and someone else. All of a sudden the electricity went out. I was in my prayer area at my altar and I had the light on which went out and about one half a minute later went on again. I started to laugh as I realized that Archangel Michael was telling me by flashing the light off and then on that my request had been heard and completed. Now I know that it could be a coincidence as it happens every now and then but the fact that it occurred just as I was pleading with them, was a sign from them. Believe in messages and miracles because they do exist if we pay attention.

I have been having computer problems and I wanted so much to do this exercise yesterday. It is such a beautiful prayer and a way to heartfully make your New Years list reach in If you wish to do it, this is the link … http://spiritlibrary.com/ann-albers/creating-2014?utm_source=Spirit+Library+Updates&utm_campaign=a097dabd18-Daily_Update&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_ef6a5211f4-a097dabd18-120804410
I did it on google docs but for some reason my computer kept telling me the my google drive folder did not exist and yet I could find my saved articles in it. BUT it would not allow me to save it or to even print it. My printers would not work so I was unable to print it out which I had wanted so I could repeat it on New Years morning. I went to bed last night (before midnight) trying to surrender my frustration and disappointment.

I arose this morning and put on my computer hoping to be able to print the prayer and my list so I could include it in my morning prayers and meditation. Guess what, I have no idea what happened but I just followed my intuition (guidance) and I got one of my printers to work and all of sudden that exercise that I did popped up on my computer. These are such powerful reminders to allow what is happening to happen and go with the flow. Most of all to TRUST that if it is meant to be, then it will happen. Whew!!!

Today, I am by myself but I will be joining spiritually and telepathically with all of you and with the rest of humanity. I have three events I am going to join via the computer and if it something you are interested in, I will include them here for you to join me intentionally and share in the New Year’s Blessings.

MERRY CHRIST-MAS

Merry Christmas Beloved,

We do not have snow for Christmas, we had our two storms earlier and even the lake was frozen as I saw ice fishermen out on it. Personally I and others did not think it was frozen enough but they did. This morning there is no snow on the ground although it is 10 degrees and the lake is flowing freely because we had some 50 and 60 degree days. Mother Nature is always fooling us but she is creative. To my human eyes there is nothing that reminds me of the Christmas I have always known but…..I know it is Christmas because I have the Christ and His Unconditional and Divine Love in my heart. THIS ESSENCE is what I wish for you and yours.

Here is an article written by Donald Walsch that is epic. For those who have not read it before, I add the link here for you.

And…for the kids (and the child in you)

And….for the group

Remember it is OK to have an imperfect Christmas according to human standards and most of all our own personal standards of perfection. Give the gift of you, that is all you really have to give anyway. Have a REAL holiday not a PERFECT holiday. You are the star that the magi are following because the LOVE OF CHRIST is YOU.

I am grateful for your Angelic Light and Presence in my world.


Love and Light

DIVINE SOLSTICE AND PORTAL

Beloved,

Today the sun is out. Whenever the sun is out, it is a good day. I even got to sunbathe for 15 minutes until the phone rang and I received another request to borrow money from a family member. I leaned to say no in my travels through life but my weakness is my family. The requests always upset me as I struggle with myself. If I can donate to strangers, why can I not do it for my own family? With strangers we feel free to say either yes or no, with family there appears to be no choice. I struggle mightily with my answer as I feel I am on a seesaw, yes one minute and no the next minute.

If my loan would help avert a crisis, that is one thing. But…there always seem to be a crisis. And…they are legitimate crisis’. Being overdrawn at the bank so the automatic deposit will be taken to pay it thus leaving me no money to pay the rent…. the check for my rent bounced and I received an eviction notice….I don’t have money for my prescriptions which are ever so necessary….my car insurance is cancelled so how can I get to work or anywhere else. Soooo, my loan helps only in the moment until the next crisis

Most families have one person who seems to take on all the burdens even if they are self made. One scapegoat that has such a low personal opinion that they fulfill that prophecy to the letter. I am well aware that they are here for us to be able to find forgiveness, compassion and wisdom. Every person in our life is here because we asked them to be. They are here so we can teach them as much as we are here to learn. I THOUGHT I HAD LEARNED ALREADY! All I want for my loved ones is they are healthy and happy. I try to stay out of their business and let them lead their own lives even if I do not agree with them about how to do it.

These people sincerely do not realize just how small their world is, it contains only them. It is like the caterpillar in the cocoon. If only they would reach out and share who they are in whatever small way they can, it would create an opening for the world to give back to them what they need. In their minds, they are trying as hard as they can and they cannot understand why these things keep happening to them. What they don’t realize is that they feed on drama. They need the drama to help them feel alive and when they are in drama, people give them what they think they need. What they need is self esteem and self love. What they need is to feel inside themselves is the love they are seeking from others . Love thyself first., fill thyself up with love so that you have love to give. If you are empty of love, you have none to spare. These people do not love themselves even though they carry the air about them that they do not need others. They isolate themselves from society so they will not feel the hurt of rejection. I have reached my limit though and demanded a consequence( other than repayment) that has to be fulfilled or my answer is NO for all future requests. This consequence is one that the person has been avoiding but which I feel will help down the road so it is not something that can be done just one time. It is to be done weekly or my bank is closed. I have promised this to myself and I do not break my promises even to myself. I guess I can call a promise a vow and they are sacred…at least to me.

I need to thank this person for bringing up in me my fear. My fear of not being enough for my family, of not having enough love to solve all their problems, of being vulnerable, of being angry with them for not being who I wish they were, of challenging myself for my IDEA of who a mother is or should be, of being independent because I never had anyone to depend on, of not trusting in the Universe to care for those I love, for not giving them enough credit to take care of themselves, for the arrogance I feel that I SHOULD be able to care for them, for failing my idea of what or who a mother is, for bring up all my perceived limitations that I might look at them and surrender them to my Higher Self and to God. These are gifts even when they do not feel like gifts. Do you ever receive these gifts? Do you have someone that challenges you, especially at Christmas?.

Thank you for letting me share this episode with you, it really helps my heart and mind to release all I am feeling. I am so grateful for you, without you there would be no need to write this newsletter as there would be no one to read it. You are THAT important to me.Let us be there for each other and not just because it is in this season of LOVE. Christ is born in everyone and I empty myself that the Christ in Christmas is born in me.

I don’t know about you but I need some laughter and lighter energy about now. Enjoy.

I’m sure you are aware that tomorrow, Dec 21 is the Solstice. Hurray, tonight is the longest night of the year so from now on, each day will get to be longer and there will be more daylight. There are many meanings to LIGHT so I will be happy to have more sunlight, more light in my ideas(AHA moments) and deeper aware and understanding in the Divine Light. Here is a great article that explains the rest.

My desire is that this Solstice awakens in you the opportunity of this Portal and use the energies of this time to awaken in you the LOVE THAT IS YOU. With this next link is the joy that is given by the simplest act of Love for one another. Let it bring Joy to your heart. After all that is the reason for the season, JOY!!!!
