What Are You Feeding Yourself? & Good Tidings To You All

Blog, December 3, 2018

What Are You Feeding Yourself?

Here we are at the year-end Holiday Season having just gone through Thanksgiving. This is a season of parties, dinners, social gatherings, work-related parties, and such with the usual array of foods and drink. So, I want to ask you ‘what are you feeding yourself?’ Are you making sure you’re feeding yourself good food, good emotions, good thoughts, good behavior? And what defines good? Ultimately you do. You decide what tastes and feels good for your body and spirit.

The Microbiome

There’s been a lot of scientific talk lately about our microbiota or microbiome. This area is home to the trillions of bacteria, fungi and other microbes that constitute our ‘gut feelings’ or our second brain. Science is finding that this microbiome communicates with our entire physical body in a myriad of biochemical messages, especially with our immune system. In fact, 70% to 80% of our immune system is in our digestive tract. Our immune system depends on the healthiness of our digestive system. All our good bacteria, specialized immune cells and hormones work together to keep our gastro-intestinal or GI tract at its optimum.

This leads back to the positive emotions and thoughts. If you are allowing yourself to feel calmness and a sense of well being, you’re feeding yourself good emotions. If you’re able to quiet your ‘inner critic’ and listen to your ‘inner cheerleader’ you’re feeding yourself good thoughts. And these two, our thoughts and emotions, definitely have an effect on our GI tract. Anger, anxiety, sadness…all our emotions and feelings can trigger intestinal distress and we wind up with our GI tract in a knot. We also can have feelings of happiness, well being, joy, even laughter that can trigger the microbiome to flood our system with good vibes. Our gut brain talks to our head brain via the vagus nerve and vice versa. The vagus nerve is the highway that has a mixture of parasympathetic connections and sympathetic connections for sending their messages. So, the body-mind connection is very real.

Personal Experience

I speak from my own experience. Several years ago I had a bout of food poisoning and it really threw my GI tract out of whack. That, along with aging changes in the digestive system, sent me into a downward spiral of worry and concern as I struggled to get myself balanced again. It took a few years of diet management, hypnotherapy, meditation, and mindfulness to calm and re-balance my digestion. I learned a lot from first hand experience about the interrelatedness of my brain and my gut. Flares of negative emotions would (and still can) send me into a tailspin whereas cultivating a state of calmness and well being brought my body back into balance.

So I ask you, what are you feeding yourself? As we go through this Ascension process our bodies are changing also in ways that may or may not be detectable by the medical field. Symptoms of dizziness, ringing in the ears, heightened sensitivities, tingling sensations, aches, pains, kundalini energy bursts, sleep pattern changes, even mood swings. I know, I know…how are these symptoms any different from the normal aging process or just plain stress? They aren’t and if you have any worries or concerns you should definitely see your physician. I mention these symptoms to give more awareness to the need of ‘feeding yourself good stuff’. By ‘good stuff’ I mean healthy food that your body wants and needs and healthy thoughts and emotions to keep everything balanced.

I know I wrote a similar column/blog/newsletter about this in the past year or so, but it is doubly important as we enter the festive holiday season. At the holiday gatherings with family, friends, and co-workers; remember it’s not just the physical foods that you’re digesting. Be sure you’re engaged in healthy laughter, joy, and fun with the party crowd and not depressed, ‘less-than’ feelings, anger and other gut-wrenching negative thoughts and emotions that play havoc with our entire system. Have a healthy, happy well balanced Holiday Season and pay attention to what you’re ‘feeding’ yourself!

Happy Eating!

A HOLIDAY MESSAGE FROM ARCHANGEL JOPHIEL – DECEMBER 3, 2018

Good Tidings To You All

As we look forward to 2019 we see a bright future for you all. You have done a massive amount of work to reach this point. Quite frankly, you all have moved more swiftly than any thought possible. We are quite aware that the majority of you do not feel growth is occurring, in fact just the opposite, but growth/ascension/shift has occurred at a rapid pace. You are bringing more and more transgressions to the surface for you all to see and change. Before all this work that you’ve been doing since 2012 and before, many of you were unaware of the enormity of the lies, misdeeds, and imbalances of power and justice that were all over the world.

Due, in great part to your social media channels, much has come to your awareness. While there is more to come, you have uncovered so very much. As polarities are seen in a wide array of your social institutions of government, religion, education, and many more; you are able to begin addressing them, as you have, and seeking a remedy that is more inclusive rather than exclusive. Yes, there are some seeming to exclude rather than include, but this is the nature of duality of the 3rd dimension and as you move deeper and deeper into 5th dimension you learn how to have more and more unity. How to include the disparate voices until all are heard and respected and all have a seat at the table.

Now, as you look to 2019, it is time to think as to how you wish to see your next decade (and beyond) unfold, both individually and planetarily. Dream, cogitate, intend and ponder what attributes do you want in your life, your society, your planet? A life of abundance, peace of mind, compassion, kindness, quiet joy, and dare we say, Love! A world society that reflects these same attributes and more in the way of social justice and equal treatment for all peoples. A world that reflects your Declaration of Independence in the United States which states: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed, by their Creator, with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.”

It is possible to have a life, a society, a world that reflects those very sentiments and you are striving mightily towards it. Yes, there is strife, dissension, arguments and conflict and you will work through all these to resolution. The resolving of differences so that all feel heard and understood. So that all can go forth in the pursuit of happiness. And why stop at happiness? You will have it all as you travel through this Ascension period. Humanity is in various stages of awakening. More and more of you awaken every day and know that all will awake and ascend on their own timetable. As this awakening proceeds, more and more of society will see how to include their fellow human with kindness and compassion, not just tolerance, but Love.

We realize this may seem far-fetched as you hear the news and look at the world, but understand…it is changing at an incredibly rapid pace. You are in the midst of it so it may seem slow to you, but to us, viewing from another perspective, we applaud you and support you. You are doing it in the most powerful way possible…by changing your hearts and minds to ones’ of awareness, understanding, compassion and love. As you do this your life becomes one filled with abundance of all that you need and thus society, through your collective consciousness, changes and grows exponentially to the LoveLight!

So dream! Dream your life and world into being the way you wish to see it. One of unity rather than duality. Sharon had an ‘aha’ moment recently as to why Odin, the god from Norse mythology, has only one eye. She knew mythology said that he had traded the eye for wisdom, but as it was explained in the recent talk she heard, his eye was traded so that he would stop seeing the world of duality and see the higher world, the greater world of unity. He had a change of perception. Now we are not saying you have to sacrifice an eye or other body part to achieve your ascension goals. Not at all, just continue growing compassion, kindness, love and peace in your hearts and minds. This will crowd out the negative lower energies of envy, greed, power over, and the like. You will come to see the unity of all and be pleased at the new life and world you are creating.

Blessings to All,

Archangel Jophiel

A Change Is Gonna Come & Steadfastness

Blog, October 20, 2018

A Change Is Gonna Come…

Those words are sung so eloquently by the late, great Sam Cooke and they echo where we are today. You’ve been told by myself and others that we would see positive changes begin to emerge more and more as we slowly clean up the chaos that has accumulated over the eons. While there still is much to clear and clean up as we go through this Ascension process, this time of Transition, I want to share with you a few of the brighter spots I’ve noticed in the news.

Millennials

A difference the Millennials may be bringing to society is that a study has found that they are divorcing at a lower rate than baby boomers. While they may be three times less likely to marry than their grandparents; when they do marry they appear to stay together. Read more here: Millennials.

Religions

A Rabbi, a Minister and an Imam in Seattle have been meeting since 9/11 and having discussions, lecturing together and offering joint spiritual teachings. Rabbi Ted Falcon, founder of Bet Alef Meditative Synagogue; Reverend Don Mackenzie, head of University Congregational United Church of Christ; and Jaal Raham, Sufi minister at the Interfaith Community Church have co-authored a book, “Getting to the Heart of Interfaith: The Eye-opening, Hope-filled Friendship of a Pastor A Rabbi and a Sheikh”. Read what they have to say in this interview about awakening spiritually to inclusivity within all religions: Religions

Banking

Now I know there have been other stories about social changes like I just shared, BUT have you seen much about financial banking sector changes? I hadn’t, but I found this story to be most interesting.

It seems in England, April 27, 2018 to be exact, Parliament passed a provision of the Criminal Finance Bill, “The Unexplained Wealth Orders”. This provision is already active in Australia and Ireland. This allows British law enforcement agencies to investigate the source of someone’s money and, if it is corrupt, more easily return the money to it’s rightful owners. Since the British Isles have been identified as one of the key destinations for corrupt money this is a very important tool for Transparency International UK and other anti-corruption groups to use. Here is a story about a woman who spent 16 million pounds in ten years at Harrods, an upscale department store in London. Oh by the way, 16 million pounds is equivalent to 20 million plus US dollars. Quite a shopper! Read it all here: Banking

Making the Impossible Probable

I know it can be difficult, if nigh impossible, to see any changes occurring in our society. Any changes that spell fairness, compassion, kindness, goodness and love, but they are occurring. Cull the Internet and social media for stories illustrating where we help one another. Read the mainstream news carefully to pull out stories that are harbingers of change for the positive. They are there, shining softly like fireflies in the mist. They are showing how we are making what was once deemed impossible become the probable. There are websites and newsletters and blogs that stress the positive, good stores that uplift the spirits and show our compassion for one another as a society, as humankind. We can and are doing it. And, if you have given up on all of that — here’s a reason to continue on, striving for a better world: Probable

A MESSAGE FROM ARCHANGEL JOPHIEL – OCTOBER 20, 2018

Steadfastness

Hello Dear Ones,

We come today to speak to you of steadfastness. Steadfastness is for one to be sure, dependable, reliable, constant and unwavering. In the face of these very tumultuous Transition Times, being steadfast can be a challenge.

We wish to speak to you of steadfastness of your Heart. We have spoken before of the need to be loving, compassionate, forgiving, and kind-hearted as we bring into being an Earth that is balanced, loving, and just for all, not just for those at the top of society.

I use the pronoun ‘we’ when I speak of bringing Earth into a compassionate balance being. We in the angelic community are standing side by side with you all as we work to bring about positive changes for Earth and Humanity. We have spoken of a New Age and time of Earth as we all want to see come into Being and you all have worked steadily toward that goal. Yes, you may slip from time to time with despair, or hopelessness or even anger, but most of you are able to allow these feelings to pass through you and see again the light of love shining ahead. And no, it is not a train! It’s a bright beautiful world we’re all working to bring about.

This is where the steadfastness of the Heart comes in. As chaos ensues it can appear hopeless, but this is not the reality. There is much activity going on ‘below the radar’ to bring positive, permanent changes on behalf of all of humankind and Gaia. Standing steadfast with one’s heart does not mean stubbornly digging in one’s heels and hunkering down. No, steadfastness of heart requires one to soften the heart, to open it to everything, with forgiveness and love. Allow the heart to guide you to the attributes of Love, Understanding, Wisdom, Grace and Ease, to name a few. Your heart knows and sees the wonderful world we are birthing into Being. Trust your heart to be there with its LoveLight shining when you become disillusioned and unable to find a ray of hope. To stand steady with an Open Heart allows the darkness and chaos to pass by you. Your Heart knows what is true and good and right and will guide you to your goals, your desires – a peaceful, loving world.

Many, many eons you have been ego driven and that time is passing, rapidly we are happy to say. Its time for your Heart to guide you. We can be of great service here in assisting your to have a steadfast heart. We energetically support you and are always with you. More and more of you are tuning in to our presence and that fills us with unbelievable joy. Even those of you that have no inkling of our presence are sensing great changes in the world. Your growing interactions with the unseen worlds, or inner dimensions, are all part of the Ascension process. As the energy around Earth becomes lighter and lighter you are dropping many of the ego’s old strategies to make you ‘fit in’ or ‘play small’ so you won’t be noticed.

Your Heart wants you to be filled with joy, laughter and ease as you choose your Path through the chaos. Your steadfast Heart stands ready to be your guiding heartlight. We, the Angelics, the Ascended Masters, your Ancestors, the Elementals and others, all send you messages of great love to assist you in having a Steadfast Heart. So stand with compassion and a soft open heart as we continue through this birthing process.

With Deep Love We Are With You

The Great Awakener & The Beauty Of Resilience

Blog, August 20, 2018

Okay let’s talk about Uranus! Yes Uranus, the planet of the surprise, the unexpected and the so-called, ‘lightening bolts out of the blue’ effect it has on life. The Awakener.

Astronomically speaking, Uranus is the seventh planet from the sun and wasn’t discovered until 1781 via telescope. Uranus is tipped over on its side with a tilt of 98 degrees, this means it spins on it’s side. So you can see this is very different from the other planets.

Astrologically speaking, Uranus is the ruler of Astrology and it’s energies are electric in nature and all about sudden change. It’s considered to be very forward-looking, not too fond of tradition and celebrates originality and individuality. It takes 84 years to circle the zodiac and spends seven years in each sign. Uranus is the only planet names after a Greek god, Ouranos, all the others are named after Roman gods.

Planet Characteristics

Uranian characteristics are surprise, ruling the future, new technology, innovative, the unexpected, unpredictable, idiosyncratic, experimental, imaginative and resourcefulness. Uranus’ job is to break the roles, demolish patterns and structures that it decides have outlived their usefulness. Thus making way for the new and improved. It rules creativity, space age, scientific genius and is the Great Awakener. It rules the astrological sign, Aquarius, the Water Bearer and we are now in the Aquarian Age of Uranus rule. Global brotherhood of man is how the Aquarian Age is described and Uranus holds sway over societal change along with environmental and humanitarian concerns.

This planet of brotherhood or platonic love at it’s best gives us a sense of universal connection to one another. It helps remind us that sharing resources is the way to thrive collectively. Think of modern collective systems we have presently like social media, the internet, ride-sharing, crowd-funding, co-working spaces, festivals like ‘Burning Man’ and you get a glimpse of Uranus at work. In Astrology, Uranus is seen as the higher octave of intellectual Mercury and is strongly objective and brainy with little to no emotional side. It helps us stretch from our visions to our beliefs….blending fact with intuition as we look for universal truths.

For the Next Seven Years . . .

So, why am I talking so much about Uranus? Around about the ‘60‘s we realized we were leaving the Piscean Age and moving into the Aquarian Age (remember Hair?). Well, Uranus just recently moved from Aries to Taurus. A change denoting a new seven-year period. Of course planets don’t move into a new sign and always stay there, there will be a retrograde or backwards moving to Uranus returning to Aries where it had been for the prior seven years.

Uranus in Aries

Uranus moved into Aries in March 2011 and stayed there until May 2018. Then, Uranus returns to Aries on November 6, 2018 until March 6, 2019, a five month span. When Uranus is in Aries, individuality comes to the forefront. The self finds new ways and means of expression often through revolution and upheaval. Power struggles internationally, leadership changes, financial adjustments…all changes and revisions that Uranus sees as being needed to bring about a more balanced society. Uranus in Aries stirs everything up to give us a chance to respond and direct the energies of self into positive avenues for change in a major way. I’m pretty sure we’ve seen a lot of this type of action in the past seven years. Uranus awakes the spiritual social warrior within us all. It behooves us to find constructive ways of expressing that energy.

Uranus in Taurus

Currently Uranus is in Taurus until November 6, 2018, returning to Taurus in March 7, 2019 until 2026. With Uranus here we will see changes over the next seven years in currency (bitcoin?), real estate, business and possessions, all Taurian concerns. Globally, Uranus will look at society and see where freedom is restricted and where there is imbalance, (1% vs 99%?); curtailed monetary freedom, (credit card debt/mortgage debt?)…any systems which keep the majority down doesn’t last on a Uranus transit. These changes will start small (as when Uranus moved into Taurus in May of this year) and the changes will come back more powerfully as Uranus settles into Taurus in Spring of 2019. We will see massive changes in our world governments and business systems. Yes, these will be upheavals but we can weather these changes and bring about much more balanced financial, housing and governmental systems for this world.

Uranus in Taurus can bring us to the realization of how much we each value ourselves and become clearer about how we want to move forward in our societal structures. Maybe we’ll become tired of being distracted by social media, governmental & infotainment issues, one right after another, and decide what is of true value to each of us personally. What do we TRULY value in life? We are in the midst and entering more deeply into a time of realigning our values into ones that are more sustainable and of service to the earth and ALL her peoples.

Interesting!

We are in for a fascinating, exciting time as we create this new earth for us ALL to live upon in joy.

I’m pretty sure we’re living up to the adage, “may we live in interesting times.”

Love & Light to All,

The Beauty of Resilience

You may not think of Resilience as beautiful, but it is. It is a trait, a characteristic that you humans have that is of great importance and great beauty. Resilience is defined by your American Psychological Association as ”the process of adapting well in the face of adversity, trauma, tragedy, threats or significant sources of stress — such as family and relationship problems, serious health problems or workplace and financial stressors.” The absolute beauty of this trait is how it allows you to recover, regroup and find new ways and means to deal with the difficulties or challenges in one’s life.

The adversities you face may vary in their duration and intensity. There can be intense stressors such as undergoing a disaster of some nature or there can be chronic continual stressors in one’s life such as financial worries. Either way, the stress is present and you devise ways to come to terms with it. And herein lies the beauty. The beauty of turning within and accessing your inner strength and skills.

How can I call this Beauty you ask? How does one gnashing their teeth and pulling of hair in complete emotional turmoil have beauty? The beauty lies in your strength of character, your ability to access your resilience that you didn’t know you had. Having a positive view of yourself and your environment; being able to manage intense feelings and impulses; having problem-solving communication skills; and being able to develop realistic plans to resolve the issues is a great beauty and skill.

It may not be the beauty of a sunrise over a mountain lake or awe-inspiring beauty of a snow-capped mountain, but it is the beauty of using your internal core of peace and knowing that you have more impact on your life than external circumstances impacting your life. The more you are able to access your inner core of stability, your Higher Self, your Soul/Spirit, your Higher Heart during moments of stress the more your inner beauty comes to the forefront.

You all have such a vast wealth of Light and Love within and it is a glorious Beauty to behold. At times, the moments when you call on your resilience, can be the moments you see your Inner Light and come to understand your great Inner Wisdom. Having a loving supportive family, friends and community can give you breathing space to tap into your resilience. Strategies that you use to strengthen and build your resilience such as accepting change as part of life; viewing crises as obstacles to overcome; engaging in activities that lead to self-discovery; and taking care of yourself with activities that bring you ease and relaxation all serve to aid your resilience.

This is where Beauty enters in your building of life skills that come to the forefront when you are faced with circumstances that call on your resilience. One of the beauties of resilience is that it can be strengthened at any point in your life. Struggling at one time in life does not mean you’ll have a lifetime of struggle, you learn and incorporate those skills that serve you well and they are there for future use, if needed. And this is one of the ways that we of the Spiritual Dimensions can be of service. As I have stated in prior letters, we are always with you. Each of you has a Spirit Guard or Guardian Angel and also Spiritual Guides throughout your life. We enter this earthly life with you and offer Emotional/Mental/Spiritual support when you request it. You have free will so we do not interfere, but we are there when you call on us in whatever means you choose to use. We shine Light on your inner resilience so you can more clearly see the strategies and ways you have of resolving your challenges.

With Blessings,

Frequencies and Vibrations

Blog, July 29, 2018

I could write about astrological events. We’re in the midst of an Eclipse Alley, as some call it with a Solar Eclipse July 12th and a Lunar Eclipse July 27th and another Solar Eclipse August 11th! We’ve got Full Moons, New Moons, Blood Moons, Grand Trines, and a bunch of planets going retrograde, Mercury included!! But I’m not going to write about all that. Just to say that the Eclipse Alley we are in now is rather intense energy-wise, but then I’m sure that most of you are VERY aware of that.

Major Upheaval

No, I’m going to talk to you of frequencies, vibrations and the inter-relation we have to each other and the Universe. In many newsletters I have spoken of staying positive, be full of gratitude, practice forgiveness, be compassionate and the like. All in the name of LOVE. I know, I know…unicorns and rainbows; bunnies and butterflies…but that imagery or even feeling like that can be very tenuous with all the chaos going on around us geophysically, socially, politically and economically. You name it, whatever sphere you look at in the world is undergoing major upheaval that is most unsettling.

How’s Your Immediate Space?

How do we even begin to stay positive or grateful with what we’re facing? I know that one of the first things we each have to do is attend to ourselves. Right now, as you read this, are things okay in your immediate space? If they are, you have much to be grateful for. I live in California and there are 18 wildfires burning as I write this and it’s been this way off and on since June. There are continuous smallish earthquakes happening somewhere in this state on almost a daily basis. And, yes all this is nerve-wracking on a basic survival level, but is it happening to you right now? Are you experience a geophysical upset of any kind? If not, this is part of what I mean about being centered and quiet within. If you’re physically okay for the moment you have space to center, breathe and just BE. From this center you can reach out to loved one, family, friends and ascertain if they’re okay. You’ll be of much more assistance to them (and yourself) if you’re centered and coming from a place of strength rather than panic. Action rather than Reaction.

Your Grounded Core

If your immediate environment is safe and economically you’re okay, for the moment, and politically laws have not immediately been gerrymandered to put you in harm’s way…you do have a bit of breathing room! From this tenuous space you have a grounded core that will allow you to be present for yourself and for important others. You can choose to help address societal and political wrongs through peaceful protests, votes, signing petitions, volunteering…helping others in whatever ways feel right to you. And I do mean feel, sense, be aware of what your heart-soul tells you is right for you. Let yourself be led by your heart, not the media, not what others are espousing on social media, but hear your heart’s song. You do know what is best for you and thus in turn the best way to be of use to society if you so chose. Again, this can be as simple as a smile for the grocery checker, allowing a car to pull in ahead of you in traffic, holding a door open for a stranger or cooking a loving meal for family and friends.

Feeling Positive – a force for good in the world

So how does this all tie into frequencies, vibrations and the inter-relation we have to each other and the Universe that I spoke of? All this LOVE stuff…kindness, compassion, forgiveness and such are much much more than just nice emotions. These emotions are also frequencies, vibrations, that we all emanate from our being. Yes, you, me, your neighbor and everyone else on earth. All of humanity. We all give off vibes. Remember the Beach Boys and their song and ‘Good Vibrations’? It’s as simple and profound as that. If you’re able to give off a loving vibration it affects and effects the environment and others around you; the inter-relation I have spoken of, the Collective Consciousness. Feeling positive is not just some New Age blather, it’s actually a force for good in the world. Choosing positive vibes over negative vibes is up to each of us. There’s a lot out there trying to pull us to the negative vibes (“come to the Dark Side, Luke”) but we have choice. We can allow ourselves to act positively (Love/Light) rather than react to a negative urge (Dark/Anger).

Frequencies and vibrations. Everything in the universe is made up of energy vibrating at different frequencies. Even solid looking things are made up of vibrational energy at the quantum level. Everything is vibrating at one speed or another, nothing ever really rests. However our frequency is different from other things in the universe and that’s why it seems like we are separated from other things. But we’re not; we’re living in an ocean of energy and everything has it’s own vibrational frequency. There’s a lot more about all this in the field of quantum science, but just know we’re all one incredibly large vibrating energy field. So this is where being able to have a positive frequency and send out positive vibrations helps not only ourself, but each other. Enough positivity will eventually counter the negative vibrations; hence the Transition we are undergoing now as we strive for good vibrations.

Maintaining a Positive Vibe

Yes, this may all sound nice, but how does one go about maintaining a positive vibe?

— One way is to be conscious of your thoughts. When a negative thought (fear, jealousy, anger, etc.) shows up, take the time to acknowledge it, thank it for showing up and drawing your attention and dismiss it. This can leave you free to use the energy for a positive thought.

— Another way I like to lift my energy is to find something beautiful and appreciate it. This can be something in nature (flora, sky, rolling hills, etc) or art work or something manmade. Whatever you admire and appreciate in the way of beauty.

— You can be conscious of the food you eat. Foods have different vibrations with blueberries having a high vibration and a Big Mac, not so high. The good vibrations from the food aid your own personal pool of vibrations and disseminates them throughout your body.

— Along this same line of thought you should always drink plenty of water to flush your body of toxins. This helps your energy stay up and light.

— Meditation or prayer is a wonderful way to bring our scattered energies back to the center and calm our spirit and achieve a peaceful state of mind. Just 10 minutes a day helps.

— Gratitude is a major means of shifting your vibrations to what you do have in life; not what you don’t have. Just think daily of 5 things you’re grateful for in your life. The positiveness will accumulate.

— One of the most satisfying and soul filling ways to be positive is being kind. In 1982, Anne Herbert wrote on a placemat in Sausalito, CA — “random kindness and senseless acts of beauty”. She was inspired to do so based on the phrase “random acts of violence and senseless acts of cruelty” oft mentioned in the media. She took a negative phrase and turned it into a beautiful positive phrase. So practice kindness without expecting anything in return, just enjoy being kind to others.

— We can always try movement to jazz up our vibrations. Movement often makes us happier and draws good vibrations to us when we’re in a positive state. Run, walk, swim, laugh, dance…just move!! (C+C Music Factory’s — ‘Everybody Dance Now’ keeps running thru my head!)

— I’m sure you can think of many other acts and images to increase your positive outlook (laughing babies, puppies, kittens, sunsets/sunrises, etc.). The list can be as long as you want, just as long as it makes you feel good in your heart and this in turn adds to the greater whole.

Mother Gaia & Her “Rights”?

Blog, June 29, 2018

There is a river in New Zealand, the Whanganui River. It is the largest navigable river in New Zealand, or Aotearoa as the Maori call New Zealand. This river became the first water system in the world to hold legal ‘personhood’ status in March of 2017. The river is now recognized as a right-bearing entity — the Whanganui River is no longer property of New Zealand’s Crown government – the river now owns itself. (info from Earth Island Journal, When Rivers Hold Legal Rights, by Shannon Biggs, April 17, 2017)

Why is this important? Because it shows a slow-growing understanding by some of humanity that Earth/Gaia, is an entity in and to herself. She’s been our Home for as long as we have been. She has shared her resources with us which provide our shelter and nourishment. Somehow, in our travels to where we are now, we forgot that we were supposed to be sharing. Instead, we’ve been grabbing and taking, like greedy 2 year olds wanting all the toys and candy. In the process we’ve pretty much trashed the place. And, incidentally, killed off a lot of the other life forms.

Isn’t the Entire Earth Precious?

There are many breath-taking, awe-inspiring landscapes and waterscapes on this planet that fill our souls with joy and are transcendent in their beauty. Some of these places are protected from our rapaciousness by being set aside as national parks, wilderness areas and the like. BUT isn’t the entire Earth precious to us? Shouldn’t all of it, in it’s entirety be cared for supported by us as we partake of her bounty and beauty? Why does a river have to be given rights in a court of law? Isn’t it ‘right’ just in it’s Being?

I had the extraordinarily good luck to be raised in a family that enjoyed and treasured the outdoors. Our family camped, fished and hunted through much of the Sierra Nevada during my childhood. Almost every weekend during late Spring into early Fall we’d pack up food and pile into the station wagon on Friday afternoon for 2 or 3 days out in the woods with Dad usually trout fishing in the rivers or bass fishing in the ocean. This fostered in me a deep love of forests, bubbling creeks and rivers, mountains, deserts and oceans. Luckily we lived in the midst of all different types of terrain that we were able to explore within a few hours travel. While others I know grew up on prairies with vast vistas and wide wide skies or deep in mountain valleys with flower-dotted meadows and earth reaching for the sky. Even friends I have who grew up in cities have shared childhood memories of having a garden or flower-bed that gave them nurturing of both body and soul. A visit to the city park for the day for a picnic is deeply appreciated by many a city denizen. Being in Nature is a great healing for us on so many levels.

Time of Clearing and Cleansing

Many of us are aware at a deep soul level of the love of Earth and Nature. Right now, Kilauea is demonstrating the power, strength and beauty of the fire element of Nature. Yes, property is being destroyed but more land is being built from the lava flows to the sea. The rivers of lava are beautiful and dangerous as they flow across the island. I’ve spoken before about how this Transition Time is a time of clearing and cleansing as we settle into 5D, and Earth is clearing. She’s trying to do it as gently as possible but we have dumped a lot of negative energy into her space with our power struggles, jealousies, angers, hatred and continuous wars, wars, wars. You can imagine she has a lot of s**t to clean out!

Simple Appreciation

So, yes Earth can be scary to us humans but not if we allow ourselves to share in Earth’s glory and not keep trying to conquer it. Thankfully, many people, for decades have worked to raise our awareness as to the needs of the Mother through a myriad of ecological programs, protests, campaigns and the like. It is now time for each of us to allow our love of the Earth to pour forth. I’m not talking about marches or petitions (although, those are fine if you desire); I’m speaking of simply appreciating Earth and Nature with your actions. Look at the sunrise/sunset and appreciate the beauty of both. Shoot…hug a tree if you feel the urge! Stop and really smell the roses and be awed by their beauty and perfection. These simple but powerful acts of appreciation and love go a long way to helping restore equanimity in humankind’s interactions with Earth. The energy we pour forth in love and acknowledgment of Earth’s gifts to us are important and each of us can do so in our own way. I realize some of you are saying, what will that do?, but do not underestimate the power of love, gratitude and appreciation. Gaia is appreciative.

Small Gestures?

Maybe you recycle, or tend a garden of vegetables or flowers, or walk on the grass barefoot, or sit and lean against a tree in a sylvan setting, or note the particular shade of blue in the sky that day….there are as many ways to express your love for the Mother as there are people on the Earth. These gestures may seem small on your part, but they are not. Think about the happiness your Mom has expressed at getting a phone call from you after not hearing from you for a while. (Not the nagging about how you never call but the real joy at the connection.) The indigenous peoples had and many still have a reverence for Earth and demonstrated this often in their interactions with her in the past and now. A clear understanding with gratitude for the beauty and bounties offered up to them. A reciprocal exchange between Beings, like the New Zealand River. Earth/Gaia is a creation of Spirit/God and our show of gratitude to her is gratitude to Spirit/God/ Universe/The Force/Etc. It’s all a beautiful cosmic dance that we get to play in and against a glorious backdrop of Earth.

Inherent Rights

We have treated Gaia as property and this has brought us to the brink of ecological collapse. Different groups are working to change human laws into rights-based laws that recognize Nature, to help human laws conform with Natural Laws. Many of us are shifting away from the idea that earth is just a resource for our use. We are growing to understand that Gaia is a Being governing all life upon it, one with inherent rights that can and should be protected. We can do it, each and every one of us starting with our love and appreciation.

A MESSAGE FROM ARCHANGEL JOPHIEL – June 29, 2018

The Elementals and You

As we have told you, you are not alone during this time of Change. One of the group of Beings who are working with you to restore Gaia to her pristine beauty is the Elementals. Elementals are Beings of the Devic Kingdom that work with the energies of Air, Fire, Water and Earth. The Elementals have been with Earth since Earth’s onset, but due to the increasing negative energies on Earth, generated by humankind, they drew back from their duties. Since Earth and Humankind have moved into the Fifth Dimensional energies, the Elementals have joyously returned and are working diligently on the restoration of Gaia. These Beings work with you and help express the love and appreciation you have for Nature and all her expressions.

The Air Elementals, the Air Beings work in Nature with the air currents around the world. They guide and aid the winds as they encircle the globe. They are of paramount importance as they assist Gaia in cleansing the atmosphere of negative energies that pollute the skies. This is done as gently as possible, but at times fierce air movements are needed for ‘breathing space‘ on the globe. The Air Beings work with you personally through the breath expressions of your Air Vortex which is near the throat chakra.

The Fire Elementals, the Fire Beings work with the expressions of fire throughout the world. Guidance of fire for warmth and nurture and fire for cleansing the earth are all Fire Beings’ work. Again, when fire is used for earth cleansing it is done with as much care as possible for humankind. On a personal level Fire Beings work with your Fire Vortex which is near the middle of your chest. Here it works with your creative thoughts to give them expression into the physical plane.

The Water Elementals, the Water Beings work with all waters of the Earth. Rivers, oceans, lakes, rain, and all other expressions of water on your beautiful planet. The Water Beings’ greatest joy is when they can direct and aid in bringing life-giving rains and showers to plants and humans. But, they too, assist in the cleansing of Gaia which at times calls for enormous forces of water to cleanse and charge the energies. Your body’s Water Vortex is near your root chakra and here the Water Beings help you release your emotional energies. Most of humankind’s energy is released via emotions.

The Earth Elementals, the Nature Beings work with all the physical manifestations of your earth. Nature Beings help give shape to all the mountains, deserts, plains, forests, savannah’s, valleys and other physical features of your planet. They work in concert with the other Elementals to bring forth the plant life and nurture animals and humans. Between your feet is where the Earth Vortex pulsates and aids in grounding your physical bodies.

Most indigenous people acknowledge and honor these Elementals. There are many sources of information you have access to that describe in detail ceremonies, rites, prayers, and other communications that have been used through the centuries to communicate with the Elementals. These rituals were born out of respect, care and love for the Mother. It’s how a bowl of milk is left out for the Little People in some of your cultures. You can make contact with the Elementals through your meditations and inner musings if you desire. You may also ask your Spiritual Guides, Angelic Helpers, Higher Self for assistance in making contact with Elementals.

Again, I say, you are not alone. Many are here awaiting your request for our assistance and we are very happy to be of aid. We are all working as one to bring Gaia back to the beautiful, pristine world she was and will be again. This is a glorious transformation and we are honored to work with you to as you restore earth to her Beauty.

With Love and Light, Archangel Jophiel

Why Am I Here?

Blog, May 12, 2018

I often get asked questions that have to do with one’s purpose in life. What am I here to do? Why am I here now? I recently found a wonderful answer that I want to share with you. These words are paraphrased from a Kryon Book*.

Kryon is a disincarnate being who channels through Lee Carroll since 1989 and provides us all with a wealth of information on spiritual matters. Kryon says there are five types of spiritual seekers.

We all have different spiritual tasks or life purposes here right now. Kryon says that the thing that drives us is our Akash, the spiritual record of our past lives. The energy of who we were, what we’ve done helps to create who we are now. Here we talk of spiritual purpose, what you’re doing this time around. Kryon describes them in 5 different segments, but also makes it clear that this is not a hierarchy. This categorizing is not linear as we usually think of lists, it is more circular and blended then separate and sequential.

NUMBER ONE

Akashic Entanglement – This is the person who is pushed by their Akash, their past lives. This person has difficulty deciphering the reality of that which is Earth now from the reality of the Akashic past or what exists on the other side of the veil.

If one seeks spiritual growth these attributes become activated; if you choose not to accept or seek them they will not occur. You always have Free Will. But if you seek out spiritual enlightenment, growth, the Path…whatever you deem to call it, these attributes will capture you in a good way and push you so that you focus on getting the message out.

Many of these people, who are constantly pushed to do the work, show up as channelers, authors, writers, speakers. Their life may appear normal but they are not. All they do in their waking hours is think about why they’re here. They push themselves constantly with the energy from the Akash, until the day they take their last breath. It is about one singular, focused, pushed thing. And it’s great because they get a lot done.

These people push the new energy into fast-forward. It’s all they want to do. They see the beauty and the splendor of Spirit and they want to talk about it, teach it, and be it. They don’t end anything, and often they don’t look back to review anything they did. It’s never complete. It’s always new for Number 1.

NUMBER TWO

Partial Akashic Entanglement – This person is a little more relaxed, they may feel pushed, but they know how to retire or relax with life. They do, however, feel they have a solid purpose on the planet. These people deal with duality and 3D, and the Human Body. They are healers and the ones who look for solutions to support the Number 1’s. Number 1’s tend to overdo it, and need Number 2’s to heal them.

Number 2’s, the number of duality, are often system workers and they figure things out. They come up with systems that help humanity. They are focussed and remember they were healers before and recall some of the systems they used. They bring those Akashic recollections forward to Now and write and teach them for Today. They steward new systems and they love to put things together. They are a support group for humanity and the Number 1s.

NUMBER THREE

The Meditators – Number 3 has had lifetimes of being a monk all over the planet and has learned to sit and just be. Three is the catalyst, it moves things while it, the catalyst, stays the same. They are so comfortable sitting and meditating for days that they come out refreshed. They often sit in one position for the hours and hours as they meditate.

They are holding the energy of all of us together and they can do it because their consciousness is steady. They hold harmony, quietness, and beauty. It sets the stage that all others feel. When 1 is frustrated, number 3’s energy is part of him to help him relax.

Number 3, the Meditator, takes our energy to another level, in a quantum way, and shares it with all. So 1 and 2 can find a bit of space to relax for a moment. Number 3 also needs 1 and 2 also because ‘just sitting’ there doesn’t accomplish what 1 and 2 are able to do. All are needed in this spiritual spiral dance.

NUMBER FOUR

The Tree Hugger – Kryon calls Number 4 The Tree Hugger. This is the person who is intimately connected to Earth or Gaia. Many don’t even know they are Lightworkers, Old Souls, Seekers or on a Path. They just know that they are connected to Earth. They find their inner peace planting their garden, walking in a forest, climbing a mountain and whatever makes them feel at one with Earth. They also are the ones who are the animal lovers, the ones connected to the consciousness of the animals and commune with them. Number 4 also hears the plants and they just have a deep love for the planet.

Number 3 may not really understand the gardner who rises early to plant things and just loves doing it. The animal whisperer is whispering for number 1, 2 and 3 also. They may not hear it or know it, but it’s happening anyway by default.

We are all connected through consciousness in a quantum way, we are not isolated. The quantum system is made of many parts that mix with the other parts, yet some of the parts don’t know each other, or even understand each other. The whole is stronger than the parts because of this.

NUMBER FIVE

Anchors – Number 5 is the number of Change and 5 is the biggest changer of the planet. The Anchor group has more LightWorkers, Old Souls, and Seekers in this group than any other. They anchor 1, 2, 3 and 4. These are the ones of us that live without writing a book, without being on stage, without doing anything ‘important’ as they perceive important. They walk, day by day, not understanding that they are on this planet spreading compassionate action. Compassion is the key word, it is what Earth needs to change and compassion ‘anchors’ balance.

Every day, the Anchor goes to work, has friends and family, goes to school, and all the other things that life offers. Number 5 is the one who anchors us all and does more to help this planet than all of the other numbers together. The Anchor spreads the compassion that this planet needs, so that all the other numbers can work their specialities.

What Anchors do is critical to the system. Without Anchors, numbers 1 thru 4 won’t accomplish anything. Number 1 can pound the message home to a dispassionate Humanity and it won’t matter at all unless there is support. Number 2 can have wonderful systems and can give them to a dispassionate Humanity, and nobody is going to hear it, unless there is support. Number 3 may sit and ponder everything for years, yet it won’t do anything to help a Humanity that doesn’t care. Number 4 can hug all the trees he wants to and be connected to Gaia, but unless there is a compassionate Humanity, nothing will change. Number 5 can help prepare the planet but without the other four numbers not much get accomplished at all.

WHICH ARE YOU?

So you’re probably asking, which am I? Kryon says you may be a combination of several and that’s fine. Remember these are not linear, but quantum. Mix 1 thru 5 in a blender, that’s quantum.

This is how spirituality honors the differences. This system of new energy being put together by LightWorkers, Old Souls, and Seekers is where everyone plays their own specific roles. It’s not where everyone does the same thing, or follows only one rule of truth. This is a confluence of energy that works this puzzle in a beautiful golden circle. We don’t all have to wear the same outfit, or face the same direction, or speak the same language, to change the planet. We also don’t even have to know each other.

Don’t beat yourself up mentally because you don’t think you measure up to your neighbor, who you feel is doing something more important than you. God sees all of us working the puzzle together.

With Light & Love

A MESSAGE FROM ARCHANGEL JOPHIEL – May 12, 2018

The Beauty of You

We often speak of Beauty and how the appreciation of Beauty brings joy, peace and calmness to one’s life. And, while this is true, the greatest Beauty you can appreciate is yourself. You are a piece of God, the All, the Whole. All sentient beings, corporeal or incorporeal are a piece of God and therein lies the Beauty.

Beauty of Light and Love that shines forth into the Omniverse. Most of the readers of this piece are working on becoming brighter and brighter or ‘letting their light shine’ as the saying goes on your planet. This ‘Light’ is truly a thing of wonder and awe as it is a reflection of All That Is. When looking at babies one often feels, if not sees, the brightness of their Light. It’s one of the reasons so many people are drawn to babies and want to hold and cuddle them. Their Light shines so very bright because they have not yet acquired the layers of physical living ahead of them.

Your Light shines with a different and glorious Beauty because of the ‘polishing’ you have done. This ‘polishing’ is the inner work you have done to achieve a sense of purpose, a sense of who you are and a sense of how you best operate in the world. Your Light has many more colors incorporated into it than a babies. Babies shine with a Light of Purity. You shine with a Light that has many colors burnished and gleaming into a whole that shines with more intensity and aspects. You have and are working on allowing yourself to hear your inner truths; to decipher the ‘messages’ you receive from other dimensions and to appreciate the synchronicities that occur in Life as you travel your Path.

Each of you has a different quality to your Light. Your Light reflects the growth you have had in your lifetime and the work you have done to find your Self or your Higher Self. This is why each and everyone of you is of so much importance…your Light adds to and enhances the whole of humanity as you reflect back the All. This Light has grown in intensity recently as more and more of you have increased your auric light. We have spoken of the fast moving changes occurring on Earth as you and Gaia traverse Ascension and this pressure has aided in so many of you brightening and shining.

Yes, we know the world seems impossibly chaotic right now with wars, atrocities against one another and the like, BUT this is rapidly changing. We are here to tell you that though you may not see these positive changes they are all around you. They don’t make the mainstream news yet, but they are there. Inventions to better your life, health and welfare; groups working together to bring systematic changes for the betterment of your life; and more and more inner growth happening on a hourly basis for everyone.

True, some chose to ignore these prods to their inner Light, but the prods are there nevertheless. The polarity you are experiencing in your social institutions is allowing for clear and unambiguous choices in your life as you become clearer and clearer as to what you want and stand for in your life.

We, in the archangelic realm see the steadily increasing Light shining brighter and brighter on Earth as your radiance comes forth. It is true Beauty to see and one that you, all of you, will begin to see more and more in your fellow humans. We send much love and support to you all as your Beauty comes forth in it’s many, many forms of Light.

With Love and Light,

Archangel Jophiel

A Month Of Allowing

Blog, April 10, 2018

Allowing

March was a month of allowing for me. Allowing myself to sleep in when I wanted to. Allowing myself to stare into space for as long as I wanted to. Allowing myself to goof off whenever I wanted to. Allowing myself to burrow in and work when I wanted to. Allowing myself to follow my inner guidance in a deeper way than every before. And it was/is fun to explore.

Becoming Quieter Inside

I managed to do this allowing because I became quieter inside. Oh I still talked and laughed with family and friends; and worked with clients in my psychic therapy practice and did many of the mundane activities one does in Life, but it was all from a deeper, quieter still point, center point within. I slowly became aware of this as I felt an expansion inside, more space…I hadn’t even been aware of being a bit cramped, but I did take note when I had more internal spiritual space.

It All Somewhat “Gelled”

How did this happen? I’m not quite sure. Yes there were meditations, daydreaming, listening, reading and journaling, but I guess the main difference is that information, energies, knowledge all somewhat ‘gelled’ and I had a different, new understanding of my inner process. I began to understand on a deeper level that while this Ascension or Change is progressing I undergo cycles within cycles of ingesting information and then reaching a new level of comprehension. This comprehension is usually across all areas: physical, mental, emotional and spiritual.

More Physical Activity

Physically I came to understand that more physical activity is called for. Well this seemed like no big revelation and it wasn’t, but my understanding of it reached a deeper level when I weeded our front area. Aha, my body said the next day, as you can see I (my body) need a bit more activity to keep flexible. I thought Yoga was the answer, but not so, at least not yet. I need a more active, moving physical activity. Mentally, in March, I came to see that my mind did not want to indulge in reading any ‘heavy’ tomes; lighter fare was called for in the manner of MAD Magazine, Funny Times monthly newsletter and such. While I had a few more ‘serious’ books to address my mind had other ideas so I went with the flow. Then there were my emotions. A few instances occurred that had ‘triggered’ me in the past and, lo!, there was no reflexive response!! Yea! Dismantling of my emotional reactive trigger points is an on-going process and has been for some time so it’s always great to discern when there’s been progress. Lots more deep breaths and long walks with a quiet mind and calm emotions has been the reward. And spiritually? Well I guess it all comes together to give me more inner peace so I can hear my Guides, Higher Self and Intuitive hits that much clearer and louder. It’s wonderful to have my connection to Spirit become deeper and wider.

Getting Out of My Own Way

So here we are in April and more cycles within cycles are occurring. All of the above areas are returning in somewhat different forms as opportunities for growth and knowledge. It’s an on-going process that is open-ended and can be fun when I allow it. We all have inner voices that may tell us we’re not ‘good enough’ or we can’t do that, what will people think? No one else is doing it so what makes me think I can do it? Allowing really is the key, it’s not hard work, it’s just learning to get out of my own way.

Time to Bloom

Allowing myself to Be, allowing myself to ‘flower‘ along with the tulips, hyacinths, daffodils and other Spring flowers. They do it so naturally, just follow their inner urges to reach upward, outward and bloom! I’m guessing when the flowers are getting mixed messages from the sun to bloom and then a cold snap hits, they just allow the weather patterns to be what they are and bloom when the weather is right. There’s always tomorrow or the next season. But there will be a time to bloom.

A MESSAGE FROM ARCHANGEL JOPHIEL – April 10, 2018

We Are With You

We always send you messages that we are with you and offer support, but there are times when you are ensnared in an emotional dark storm and you only see the dark. Know at these times, even though you do not perceive us in any form or fashion, we are still with you. We will be there when the storm passes and you can hear us again and this spiral may happen time after time during this Transition Time. Yes we say spiral because you are continually moving upward during this process. True, there can be two steps forward and one back or even one forward and two back, but you recover and move three steps forward next time.

Incredibly Pleased

We offer energy of encouragement, love, support and deep deep compassion. You are the warriors in the trenches and we honor you. We acknowledge that what you do is difficult and exhausting at times and can even seem hopeless, but it is not. Earth and Humanity are moving towards a time when Compassion, Love, and Kindness will guide all. As you look about you now you question this statement, we know; but also know that behind the scenes, behind the distracting show on stage, there is a massive scenery change taking place. When the curtain lifts on the next act you will be incredibly pleased with what you have accomplished.

Easier and Easier

Darkness has engulfed Earth for eons and now it is time for the Light. What you experience now is the dark before the new dawn. You have a saying…’it is always darkest before the dawn’, no? This is true with what you’re doing now. And don’t think that because you’re not a healer, channeler, author, or some other type of ‘expert’ that you’re not aiding in the change. Every time you show compassion to yourself, to another, share a hug and a smile with each other you add to the Light. As you do this more and more it becomes easier and easier. That doesn’t mean you won’t have emotional upheavals now and again. You will, that’s all part of being human, but they will be fewer and fewer as you clear the dark energy out of your space.

Nurturing in the Dark Moments

This is why we call you warriors and offer our love and admiration for your courage. What you do is not easy, but it is powerful. Loving one another, being kind to one another and most of all, having compassion for yourself are so important now. When you feel troubled allow the feeling to pass through you, it will. It will pass easier if you do not resist it. Curl up within yourself and nurture yourself during those dark moments. Believe that we do help if you ask during those dark times and our energy holds you and helps clear the emotional storms. We have great love for you and all you do as all of Earth and Humanity move up the spiral of Growth.

I am Archangel Jophiel speaking on behalf of the Angelic Kingdom.

Blessings and Love To All

Our Own Voice

Blog, February 21, 2018

Leaders

For eons we have been turning to figures of authority for our guidance. Governmental leaders, religious leaders, military leaders, social leaders, philosophical leaders, you name it. A constant turning outward to find our way. While many figures of authority have wisdom and guidance that we have relied on; it is time for us to add a very important voice. Our own!

Our Own Voice

Our own…our own Higher Self, Spirit/Soul, Heart, I AM…whatever name you give the connection within yourself to God/Cosmos/Universe/Prime Creator or “Fred” (to use Colette Baron Reid’s name for Divine Guidance). Humankind has been led to discount this inner guidance as not viable, that we need others to tell us our worth and how to proceed to live our life. While wisdom coming from others is most valuable and may be considered; our own truths, inner wisdom, or messages from our Soul should have a seat at the head of the council table.

At one time humankind had a very strong and robust inner connection to the All That Is. Our truth, our spiritual guidance led us to choose with clarity and understanding. We learned what worked best for us as a spirit in a human body and what didn’t work. Yes, we talked with others about their experiences and what they had learned, but others’ experiences did not necessarily outweigh our own. We understood that each of us had a unique voice and had something precious and vital to add to the whole.

Lost Connection

As millenniums went on we lost this connection to our inner compass, gave up our seat at the council table and became filled with self-doubt, fear and confusion. We came to believe that only others, those that we named as leaders, could be the ones to make our decisions and tell us our truths. We began to need intermediaries to carry our message to the spirit world. Someone who know more or had better connections then us, or so we thought.

And so we wind up here; dictators telling their people that they, the dictator, know best; religious factions all screaming my way, my god is the best; political factions each touting that they and only they have the means to govern the populace. Business leaders insisting that the amount of money garnered is the only way to measure the worth of a company or corporation. Your educational wisdom is measured by how well you can pass a test and not how much compassion you have for your fellow humans. Social media telling us that how many ‘likes’ helps us decide what to do or how to dress or how to think.

Now Is The Time

It is now time to find your inner voice. It’s always been there, we just haven’t listened to it for a very very long time. Throughout the ages there’s always been some that have listened and spoke to us of finding that path within. But their voices were but a puff of wind in the face our hearing the voices of our designated leaders. Those teachers through the ages have all spoken of the treasure within each of us and the joy experienced when it’s found.

Contemplation, Meditation, Prayer, are three of the many methods that can lead us to our inner counsel. But there are many other ways to hear your soul’s voice such as being in Nature with quiet joy and reflection. Music is another means that can lift and elevate one to inner states of receptiveness. Whatever will allow one to have a quiet moment or two inwardly, where the mind becomes calm and quiet and you can begin to hear your True Voice.

Negative Voices

The voices that speak of negativity and how undeserving you are, or worthless, or incompetent and such is not the voice of your Higher Self. Your soul’s voice will speak of your self-worth in positive quiet ways, it will lead you to see your inner beauty and accept who and what you are. Which, again, is a Spirit having a Human Experience. Many of us have a cacophony of inner voices all speaking at once and giving us confusion. Most of the voices are filled with messages that negate one’s self worth or repeat how worthless or dumb we are. These are the voices of fear, shame and indecision. These voices have developed over the eons as we lost touch with our Inner Guidance. The voices have reached a crescendo within many of us as we can see when we look at the injustices prevalent in the world.

We can regain our inner Touchstone, our Center of Peace and Calm our Guidance System by allowing ourselves to be still. My first recalled memory of clearly hearing my inner voice was when I was going through a divorce. I was crushed, defeated and inconsolable. At one point when I was emotionally thrashing about looking for something, anything to hold on to, I very clearly and quite loudly heard ‘Be Still Child, I Am With Thee’. I jumped and looked around me to see who had spoken and looked at others in the room to see if they had heard the voice. I then realized it was an inner message and I felt a modicum of calmness overtake me. I know that we all don’t have a booming voice within and I’ve never experienced that again but I have learned to listen within.

Listen

The light energies on Earth are the highest they have ever been and they will continue to grow and grow in intensity. These energies are helping us all to clear out the negativity within and hear our Higher Self and know our Truths. Quiet yourself, allow space within and listen.

A MESSAGE FROM ARCHANGEL JOPHIEL – February 21, 2018

Space. Allowance. Patience.

Space

We wish to speak of Space. You all need to give yourself permission to have Space. Space in your thinking. Space in your emotional state. Space in your life. You tend to crowd yourselves with ‘to do’ lists, appointments, deeds to fulfill, and more. This lack of Space for your Self can make you feel overwhelmed. Crowded, dense, pressure on all sides.

You are beautiful beings who have so much to give yourselves. Yes, we understand that there is much to do in order to keep functioning in the your world. And yes, we understand that you must do deeds to continue your life. We are suggesting however that you allow more room between the ‘to do’ lists, the chores, the appointments. Take time to allow fresh air to fill your inner space. You will see that your responsibilities will still be accomplished and you will have space in between deeds for your self. An ease will enter your actions and all will flow with surprising grace. You are so much more powerful in controlling your space than you allow yourself to be.

Allowance

And that leads us to Allowance. Allowing yourself to make a misstep and understanding that errors are part of learning will allow you to move through your day smoother. Allowance lets you have room to recover if you make an error or mistake. Errors are something intrinsic to learning. You try different ways to find the one way that works best for you. Allowance gives you license to experiment and find the correct path for you. Each of you is unique and have your own way of achieving goals. Allowing for this uniqueness gives you much more latitude in solving problems and accomplishing goals. Allowance is an expansiveness of energy that gives you elbow room to tinker and putter as you go through life. Allowance gives you permission to seek new ways of doing old chores or deeds. Allowance will help you find easier, smoother and therefore faster ways to handle your responsibilities. You sell yourself short when you do not give yourself the room of allowance.

Patience

Patience allows you to be good to yourself. You can give yourself the gift of Patience and not have to berate yourself for a perceived negativity. Patience gives you space and room to spread your wings and move about easier. Patience with yourself is a wonderful gift to give yourself. With Patience you can be compassionate with yourself when you make a perceived misstep. With Patience you can smile and laugh at yourself with love and try another route. Patience allows you to hear your fellow human and see that they too are attempting to foster Patience. Allowing yourself Space and Patience is a wonderful way to be good to yourself and foster self care.

You are much loved and we stand by to offer assistance in any way that we can. We are always with you. Each and every one of you.

Blessings To You All,

Archangel Jophiel

Feminine Energy Continues

Blog, January 28, 2018

Emotional Energy

2018 has started with lots of astrological energies. We had a Super Moon on the first day of year in Cancer. A Super Moon is when the full moon appears closer to the earth than usual. This is due to the elliptical orbit of the moon. This full moon was intense with a lot of emotional energy highlighting the feminine. This is demonstrated with the Women’s March, the #MeToo and #Time’sUp Movements and the revealing of the darkness exposed in the USA Women’s Gymnast Team doctor’s recent trial.

Positive Energy

We had a wonderful positive showing of the rising of feminine energy when Minnie Mouse finally got her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, on January 22nd, 2018 — a mere 40 years after Mickey’s star. (Even Donald Duck got a star before Minnie, in 2004.) She was very appreciative and gracious about it though, saying “I’m so grateful and I want to thank all my friends from around the world. And Mickey, I’m so happy you’re here to share this wonderful day with me. This really is the best day ever!”

Lunar Eclipse

Now we step into the energies of another Super Moon on January 31st in the sign of Leo. This moon is also a Blue Moon, meaning that January, 2018 has two full moons, the 1st and the 31st. As if that is not enough for this full moon it will also be a total lunar eclipse or a Blood Moon; so you can see Wednesday, January 31st with a Super Blue Blood Moon is going to bring us a lot of cosmic energies. The last time we experienced a Super Blood Blue Moon Eclipse was 36 years ago, but having this type of eclipse in the sign of Leo is extremely rare and has not occurred, some are saying, for 150 years. This total lunar eclipse may bring up past memories of our childhood and how it reflects in our life now. Early Wednesday morning will be a good time to set aside some time for meditation and reflection.

While you won’t actually see the moon appearing blue you may see it appearing as a blood moon, kind of a rusty color. Here in the United States we can best see the lunar eclipse just before sunrise, especially in the West. The eclipse will begin at 3:48 PST, total eclipse at 4:52 PST and the moon will be in the Earth’s shadow for a bit more than an hour.

As with all ‘cosmic triggers’ this is an excellent time to reflect on your inner truths, hearing your inner guidance more clearly, and considering what you want to achieve or manifest in your life. Check on those resolutions or intentions you made at the beginning of the month and tweak them and make adjustments accordingly.

Your Sign

How does this important moon affect your sign? There will be a lot of energy coming forth that will initiate changes in areas of our life needing course corrections. Here are some of the areas to be aware of.

ARIES

Relationships may be affected now. Troublesome ones could end or reveal issues that you can face and heal. Being calm and clear during this time may be challenging, but all changes will be for the better. Your finances may undergo a correction at this time, but it is all manageable if you do not act with haste. Calm decisions will assist your financial growth.

TAURUS

Career-wise you need to prioritize your duties. You may feel a bit overwhelmed. Making corrections or changes will be important at this time. There may be issues of home and family pulling you away from your business and, for awhile, you may have to focus on these issues.

GEMINI

If you are a student or studying something at this time you may have changes of school, teachers or courses. Discipline yourself and stay calm and you will succeed. Be sure and back up your computer files and other electronic devices and take good care of your vehicles. Those around you may be having crises and the best help you can be is to listen and support them calmly. Pay attention to your finances as they may need correcting at this time.

CANCER

Be sure to rest, relax and meditate during this lunar period. With the Moon being your ruler it important to give yourself time and space. Now is a time to look closely at yourself and decide how you want to go forward. See what’s holding you back from clear self-expression. Allow yourself to self-discover and improve yourself from now until the next lunar eclipse in July, 2018.

LEO

Attend to your health needs during this period of the Lunar Eclipse. Be sure you rest well, sleep well, and good care of your health. Listen to your body’s messages and needs. This eclipse is giving you a chance to learn more about yourself and rid yourself of negative self-images and restrictions that you no longer need. Your sense of spirituality will grow and change during this time, also, as you see which directions you need to go. It will be a beneficial change in the long run because your beliefs will reflect your true self even more-so than the past.

VIRGO

While these eclipse energies are strong and unsettling for everyone you will weather it rather calmly. Spiritual energies will come to the forefront for you and you will re-examine your beliefs and ideals. Romance will be relatively unaffected, but you may have to show patience with your partner. Your partner may be dealing with stress in their life and not in the best of moods. Friendships will be strongly affected by this eclipse and problem friendships will come to an end. Other friendships will heal issues that have arisen in the past.

LIBRA

Your friendships may have a few problems in that your friends are having problems and they share them with you. They will need your support during this period. Your computers, and hi-tech gadgets may rebel at this time. Be sure and back everything up and check your firewall. If you need to buy any replacements try and wait until a week or so after the eclipse.

SCORPIO

Lots of career focus for you with this eclipse. If you work for others you may make major changes like changing jobs. If self-employed you’ll probably make a few course corrections. Be decisive and calm and all will be well. Your beliefs and spiritual goals may be due for an overhauling as you realign issues to make matters more harmonious to you. Family may stress you or unsettle you a bit, but nothing that you haven’t handled before.

SAGITTARIUS

If possible don’t do too much traveling during the eclipse as plans can go awry. If you’re a student during this time you may have issues arise with your schools or studies. Things may be topsy-turvy for awhile. You may even make major changes in your schooling. You will be letting go of a number of feelings, beliefs and ideas that no longer serve you. You may also experience significant changes in your work environment.

CAPRICORN

Be cautious during this period. You already know this being a Capricorn, but just a reminder during the eclipse time. In your love life have care with health matters. Try not to have arguments with your partner during this period. Now is not a time for adventure in the romance department. You want to keep an open mind, not rush into decisions and be calm. Trust yourself.

AQUARIUS

Your love life will be tested to the maximum with this eclipse. Everything will come up for attention. Handle these situations calmly as possible. For the most part, this is all happening to heal the relationship and make it stronger, not to end it. A clearing for a fresh start. If alone you may feel depressed, but this is a time to explore loneliness and what it means in your life. How to make ‘friends’ with loneliness so loneliness is no longer a factor. There will be job changes with this energy, again these changes will be ultimately beneficial. You also must be sure you get enough rest and sleep. You may need to tweak your diet a bit too have the most beneficial health at this time.

PISCES

Your health is spotlighted during this eclipse in a very positive way. Your health schedule should just need minor changes in your diet, exercise and sleep. Listening to your body’s needs will continue to guide you in this area. Any changes in work will all be for the positive with a minimum of stress. Your children’s financials may undergo some stress. They will correct them with your advice.

Calm, Centered, Aware

So as we ride the cosmic waves of this upcoming Super Blue Blood Moon may we all stay calm, centered and aware of our I AM (Soul/Spirit) presence. These waves of energy are pushing us forward in the Ascension process.

With Love To All
