I really love when I find a message that inspires me. The messages I have read lately all somehow feel that they are directed at me with regards to career. I love how there is always some advice that I can take from these messages...always something to help me along my path. Man, I feel really good!!
Today's Angel Card Message for Monday, October 24, 2016 It seems that you are feeling really good about a few things in your life and some decisions you've made. However, you may have some interference coming from loved ones and friends, because they don't agree wholeheartedly with the direction you're taking. This is placing you in a very vulnerable position, because it's questioning for you what your heart is compelling you to do. You have resorted to keep it hidden from them until you can get more comfortable with the choice you've made. Meanwhile, you've created a wonderful world where no one else exists and neither does their two cents of input! You feel really good about what you are doing and enjoying. Your soul is alive and your pulse for your life purpose is strong. This situation may also involve a romantic relationship. Although you have a solid connection developing between you, it's time to start looking at where this is seriously going. The only way to discover that is to see how it perseveres in the actual journey of your lives together and individually. Your heart's potential is open to successful outcomes. Whether you are pursuing a relationship or a career, a path is unfolding for you to channel what you have learned into really sustainable, stable, and prosperous opportunities!
Standing before you is a gateway into a whole new paradigm of existence and consciousness. It's a new world order, where you're truly ruling your reality from the heart. Your heart is orchestrating completely new conditions, as this Emperor is possibly exemplifying by the symbols of his reign. Your thoughts and actions are not solely dictated by reason and logic, but also motivated by your passions. They matter and are given more prominence in your decisions, as they rightly should. This card, in this regard, is also saying that you are doing what is best for you, and that you are learning to follow the structure and direction that your soul's path has carved out for you. It's also saying that you are not taking a back seat anymore, and that you are partnering and participating more consciously in the choices and developments of this divine plan. New foundations are being placed to stabilize the core of your connection with your higher self, and within the core of your relationships. As this expands, you come to realize that there was never an intention to separate you from the world of your Source and the physical world you interact with. This partnership and connection was provided to enhance and to secure your existence within the universal framework of life.
A fundamental issue is to play down the resourcefulness and powerful tools of your intuition’s ability to assist you in practical decision-making. It's not something that has an on and off switch. To deny its value is impractical and unreasonable. Its purpose is not only to inform you of what's ahead. It's sole reason is to constantly remind you of who you really are, and what it is you desire, that makes you feel happy and valued. There is no greater purpose for your divine guidance. It's a compass that knows “locations” (as in situations, relationships, environments) where you are most fulfilled and successful. These “locations” are vibrational realities where the potential is active, realized, embraced, supported, nurtured, and sustained by your inner being. A perfectly formulated and constructed well made plan is waiting for you to seek it out and experience it. Of course, this is not always easy to do, when there are too many other voices and other types of distractions occupying our minds and attention. The Emperor is asking you to stick to the well laid out plan of your heart, which may mean setting boundaries, making a schedule to curb idleness and frivolity, and being firm and determined.
The Emperor may indicate that you have great ideas floating around, but you aren't making any concrete plans or decisions to develop them into tangible goals. Perhaps, you are afraid to ask for help or seek out some advice from an expert. If you have issues with authority and giving up control, this is going to create an obstacle or some form of stagnation in your process. No one is going to steal your idea and alter it somehow. It's clear that you need some form of assistance, recommendations, or insights to expand your experience or goals. No one ever does anything completely without others. There's a reason why each of us has a speciality or a unique perspective that another doesn't have necessarily in the exact same way. Our diversity is there to bring options we couldn't have explored or expected, otherwise. You need the interaction to spark new ideas, and to possibly renew your motivation and passion. You have a strong desire, but you're lacking will and conviction to follow through. It's time for you to come down from those clouds, and begin building connections to help you get things done.
If you are dating or have been admiring from afar, it's time for you to implement the steps you have been guided to take. This goes for anything. Your focus of inadequacy is disabling you from experiencing the happiness you seek. It doesn't matter what you are thinking in your head. What matters is what you are hearing in your heart. Trust it. Don't worry about the outcome. The outcome is not the practical purpose of the action step. The universe always has a strategy to help you get uncomfortable being in your shell. You want to move from one shell to another, and have it always be and feel comfortable. But, what if being comfortable is the crutch? What if it's keeping you stuck in a similar pattern or environment, where you aren't gaining any real knowledge and understanding of who you are potentially? What if you you being comfortable is what's really making life uninteresting and unsatisfactory for you? So, what if it doesn't turn out the way you hoped? Look at it as an opportunity to discover another aspect of your strengths and weaknesses you weren't aware of, and that you have a chance to try something different. These experiences offer you an opportunity to refine yourself, in order to better align with your true purpose, passion, and potential.
Instead of taking action, based on an expected outcome, make the success of your goal purely about trusting your instincts and wisdom. You have to be able to rely on them as a Emperor in order to gain experience. For example, you're guided to apply for a higher position in your job. The outcome is obviously to be hired. Yet, the focus from your angel's perspective was to apply, because you deserve to know your potential. As you put together the information to complete the application, the resume process causes you to look at your skills and experience in a way completely different from your comfortable position. As you start to transfer the skills and experience that outwardly fit the position, you may start to see other things you've done since your last resume. Because of your current job guidelines, you may not have realized the extra skills you've picked up, which were indicating that you were ready for something more. You were too comfortable in focusing on the outcome of the reliable paycheck to ever pay attention. People don't take advantage of us, as much as, we just don't pay enough attention to ourselves in a credible way. The outcomes aren't as important as what you gain and learn about yourself along the way.
You have to start thinking like a leader or creator of your reality, and less like the outsider or underdog in your own world. Get uncomfortable in this situation. Sometimes, the universe will shake up your world for this very purpose, as the guidance was to assist this process. Once you are finally awake, you're ready for a powerful and true outcome worthy of your heart's valuable contributions and leadership. Don't wrestle against the plan to mold you into a better version of fulfillment and happiness! You are loved too dearly to ever let you stand still in such blandness. If doing something alone does not make a difference or brings unfavorable results, then get back up by asking for help from persons qualified to help you see yourself in the likeness of your Creator's vision of you. The plan is to inspire you to discover the best possibilities to make the progress you seek. Trust and believe in yourself and your intuition. You have strengths and power yet to be unleashed. Now is the time to forge them! May the Source be with you always!
Last weekend I went to go see Bridget Jones' Baby. I have followed each and every one of of the movies. I am already waiting in suspense for the next one! While I was watching the movie, twice there were scenes where Bridget is in Greenwich Park. Each time my heart jumped. Why? Well it was really quite weird. It is because I knew someone who actually sat in almost the same spot as where she was sitting! I have never been to London so for me at that point I could actually see what this person must have seen when they were sitting there. It was like I was looking through Bridget Jones' (Renee Zellweger) eyes!! I felt as if I was sitting there too... I loved the movie! This is the soundtrack - FABulous!!
I love listening to music in the car while on my way to a meeting, as I feel it helps me to prepare for the day that waits. I think it is like the memoirs to my life as it has been there throughout everything with me. Music is one of the most important and powerful things in my life. My life without melodies and harmonies would be totally empty. Listening to different songs helps me to de-stress, relax and it can also help to motivate me in trying times. I believe music has the ability to convey all sorts of emotion. Whether the emotion is joy and happiness or sadness and despair through rhythms, harmonies and the lyrics music shows it. The effect that music can have on our emotions is tremendous, as it can bring people to floods of tears or bursts of laughter. Music has the ability to transport me back in time just like a time machine. It lets me revisit lost and forgotten moments in life. To me music is more than just something to listen to, it’s something to feel. Driving off this morning to a meeting I had Metallica on the radio. Their song "Nothing Else Matters". The acoustics are just so amazing as well as the lyrics. I cannot explain the emotions that ran through me! Then to end the day I was taken back in time with Pat Benatar on the radio, belting out "All Fired Up". Just so awesome! Trust me, you don't want to know me when I start singing along - teeheeheee.
Wow! I am completely blown away!!! Stunned actually and at the same time soooo happy and overwhelmed! I have taken on a new opportunity over and above what I normally do. In this economy I just had to. I have been stressing BIG TIME as to how I am going to make this work and yes, stressing over all the details. I am quite honestly drained. I have even developed a frigging pain just below my right shoulder blade - like a pinched nerve or something - when I turn the wrong way I get this shooting pain through my back! Not nice :( - Getting back to my story - I have been having sleepless nights because my head is spinning with all the things on the "to do list" and yes, questioning my ability and my confidence. My insecurities are getting the better of me. But, being me - who I am - I am determined to make this work. I questioned it all at first but have now seen the potential. Damn - it is there! I have had some hunches but was too skeptical to pursue them and today I just thought - bugger this, I am going to follow my hunch. I am so HAPPY I did. The result from my hunch has opened a completely new door!! I am so stoked. At lunch I took a break and went on to FB and read from some of my favourite groups. I came across these two posts. I could not believe what I was reading!! It's as if these messages are directed at me!! Yesterday I also had a message that I posted here that I also felt was aimed at me. The message was to trust my true instincts and that is exactly what I did today! So, so, sooooo AWESOME!
Today's Angel Card Message for Tuesday, October 11, 2016
The first impression of this card is strongly advising you to open your heart, and shower yourself and others with compassion. It's a signal for you to give everyone, including yourself a huge break! An important opportunity is available, but you're spending too much energy stressing over every little detail. It's draining everyone involved, and creating high volumes of frustration, anxiety, and fatigue. Nothing good can come from this approach. The King of Autumn would suggest that you are working against yourself. Like him, you're very accomplished in your area of expertise and very talented. Instead of grinding away, you need to step back and celebrate your achievements. It doesn't make sense for you to feel insecure about the steps you're taking to bring some important plans or goals to fruition. You're on the right path. You may not see it in this moment, but everything is in effect going quite well! You just need to hang in there, continue with what you are doing, and take advantage of this time to improve how you go about reaching your destination. This card also represents a very sweet and kind person, like a new employer, that you might meet. It could represent your role as a leader of a team or division on your job. Whether you are in a leadership position, or it represents your respectability and influence to shape a particular point of view, you need to trust these impulses and take action about something you know is right.
I'm getting a strong feeling that you've been unable to rest adequately, because of some changes you're pursuing, or considering, in your life. These changes are giving you the chance to set some things straight, which are very important. These huge opportunities are going to make all the difference in the world for you and your loved ones. They will help you to have a completely different lifestyle, where you'll enjoy certain freedoms you couldn't possibly afford otherwise. The opportunity is available because you deserve it, and you're more than qualified with the outstanding skills and experience you have. In spite of knowing this, you are wavering in your confidence, and making the process more difficult than it should. It seems that you need to relax a bit more. The more you focus upon the list of things you need to fulfill the requirements, the greater your anxiety spirals out of control. It is counterproductive to your own flow of well-being and abundance, which is actually blossoming for you at this time. If you're working toward a specific goal, the king might indicate how close you are to succeeding. He may also represent how well you are perceived by others in an interview process, for example.
You are doing a really great job in your preparations. If you applied for employment, a loan, or perhaps met someone you're interested in, this card could highlight how well you're doing. It could show the level of interest in you from the other party. It feels like the faeries are giving you a thumbs up. This might come to comfort you and ease your fears about your chances in this situation. Again, I keep picking up on the need for reassurances, as unfounded insecurities are significantly high. The King of Autumn would suggest that the gifts you've prayed for are available for you to receive. You just have to stay positive and believe. Perhaps you are inspecting some financial prospects, but you're not sure if they are solid leads. This card would affirm your decision. It would also suggests that there is a quick financial turnaround and other possible rewards involved. It's a favorable investment, but it will require more of your time and focused commitment to get it up and running. You'll have to wear several hats at the same time. Even though it will seem slightly stressful, you will feel good about what you are doing. After the initial stages, things will slow down enough for you to have plenty of time and energy to enjoy what you have established.
The King of Autumn would suggest that you focus less on your concerns and put more energy into developing opportunities for yourself. He's surrounded by lots of grapes hanging from the vines. Growing up, my grandmother had two in her backyard. I could stand there all day and eat them. Of course, I did overindulge a few times and gave myself a sour stomach. However, there's no such thing as too good of thing when you are doing what you love. There are always new possibilities unfolding. Instead of never eating anymore grapes, I learned better not to worry about getting sick, but to pay attention to noticing when I have had enough. Some of you may have misjudged something in the past, overindulged, and paid some heavy consequences for them. Yet, this doesn't mean that you should stop trying. Don't take precautions by over analyzing what went wrong. And, don't try to anticipate your actions beforehand. Basically, you'll end up sabotaging yourself and what's important to you. Trust that you will know the right thing to do when the moment arrives. The same impulses that have stirred you in this wonderful direction will continue to provide the wisdom and insights at anytime you're unsure, and need assistance.
Another aspect of this card's meaning may signify physical clues, “chance” meetings, or having a spiritual vision or dream come true. Gifts appear in different forms. You may receive them very clearly and accurately while you're doing something creative or following up on a hunch you have. Don't be afraid of a sudden opportunity to speak or display your talents before an audience. Even if you don't feel ready, go for it! You are more than ready for the opportunity that has been set up for you. You'll feel a strong spiritual connection and will be surrounded by God's grace and love. When you feel drawn toward a wonderful new opportunity, trust that behind the door is an extraordinary blessing that's beyond your imagination of good. You haven't begun to see the peace and satisfaction you're meant to have. Think less about doing what's right, and start with doing what feels good! May the Source be with you always!

A message aimed at me. Awesome!! Today's Angel Card Message for Monday, October 10, 2016
The Queen of Autumn (Pentacles) reminds you to take time to consider what you want out of any situation, which may come up suddenly. Instead of reacting to something that occurs, tune in and seek out a creative approach, which will be an unexpected response. Yet, it will help you to manifest the best outcome, and be of great assistance to everyone involved. You may need to seek out someone like our queen, who is very adept at guiding you to shape an idea or goal in a very better way. This person might be of assistance in helping you turn your dreams into a success. Perhaps, you have been observing your situation from the wrong point of view. You're clear about what you want, which you are lacking, that it's distracting you from discerning what steps you should follow, in order to start experiencing it. However, there's a sense that some of the details of things you want to see are beginning to come into focus. You'll take some creative risk or advice, which will launch new possibilities and financial opportunities through this process. Pay attention to persons, who are dedicated to helping you fulfill your commitment to your dreams, and willing to provide some of the advantages you need to do so. Gifts transpire at the right moment when you are fully receptive.
Think of the Queen of Autumn as the goddess of the harvest season. There is an opportunity for you to reap the benefits of what you've sown. You can see that her ability to focus within allows her to tap into the infinite flow of abundance, which she's able to conjure at her will. She's reminding you that you have the gift to change your circumstances by giving yourself permission to believe you deserve what you desire. It's also a time of discernment. You can't keep offering more questions to answers, which are already inside you. When you choose the direction of your desire, more answers unfold naturally leading always toward further information and inspirational experiences. Her long flowing robes indicate, that she is always moving with the flow, even if the conditions aren't favorable. She knows resistance amplifies the unwanted. She's patient about what she believes in, and doesn't cut corners to achieve her goals. Her greatest joy is discovering new possibilities and opportunities, as they unfold within the process of shaping and sharing her desires.
The Queen of Autumn lives fully in each present moment and is receptive to all sorts of ideas and input. This way it allows her to draw from a variety what she likes. It provides her with choices, which she divines from within. If it doesn't resonate with her, she won't second guess her instincts. She has a keen sense about what's right and wrong, which is why most find her guidance to be sound and reasonable. Her heart is brave and strong. It feels like you're becoming more secure about what your heart really wants. Her creativity flows freely, because she always applies her talents to the things she loves. This aspect of your soul is calling you to make choices like this, which help you to shift into a position of prosperity and happiness. It doesn't mean that you have to drop everything at once, that you've been doing. However, you're being encouraged to allow yourself to embrace changes that are practical and appropriate for you to begin. You may not feel like you're ready for these important decisions, but your spirit is!
Decisive signs will appear to help you become certain of the best way for you to go. Listen carefully to thoughts that repeat in your heart, which seem to keep coming to you. It's similar to a tune that pops into your mind, and no matter what, you can't stop humming or singing it all day. These moments are not coincidences. You're receiving a message from your angels and God, which they are playing in your heart. No matter how much you try to resist it, it stays right there making you happy and fulfilled. It would seem there's no way to escape it. Another way they may get a message through is by using speech. I've had this experience of thinking to say one thing, when I keep repeating another during a reading or when talking to someone. I clearly have this strong knowing and conviction, that what I'm saying, not what I am thinking, is a message. You'll get it, because you can't override the impulse. They have a way of using impulses to foster or highlight clear signs of inspired action to pursue. It's equally important not to become derailed by a negative perception of the details. At this point, you may not be seeing all the facts in the best context, which is distorting the true outcome.
At this point, don't take conflicts too seriously. It's important to lighten up your attitude and find more ways to enjoy what you're doing. If you're not careful, you can easily overlook opportunities headed in your direction. Like the Queen of Autumn, you have to be ready for whatever comes to you by staying in touch with your inner desires and truth. No matter what happens, she never loses her connection to it or her intention. It helps her know which choices are suitable for her. She has developed a penchant for rewarding experiences, and people she can collaborate with. There's a synergy she can always spot. It helps her to read where a successful opportunity is possible. Her advice is to focus on goals that spark your heart and have strong impulses with many leads. Also, don't force anything to happen. Notice what's happening in relationship between you and your purpose. If it's for the best, you'll feel a strong surge of momentum and positive influence. You won't have to seek out the details you want, you will feel guided by them, as if you are being drawn to what you need instead. Trust your true instincts! May the Source be with you always!
What do you do when you feel the need for change? Do you sit idly by and hope it will happen? Do you implore other people to intervene? The only way for a problem to resolve is if YOU are willing to pursue a solution. Usually, this requires standing up, being counted, making your voice heard and your desire felt. Some of the situations you find yourself in are far from ideal. But there are avenues that you have yet to discover. Don't be so worried about the blind alleys that you refuse to explore the roads to success. Now is the time for personal growth and to find new meaning in your life's journey.
