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.
