Calendar Angel Readings!

I have recently given myself an Angel Reading for the 2015 year, and was so excited, I thought it would be a good idea to share a fun offering to you! For a long time I’ve been wanting to offer some kind of book offering of a Reading COLLECTION that would cover a span of time. Calendar Readings seem PERFECT to introduce such an idea!

I love sending goodies through the mail, so this is a PHYSICAL BOOK you would receive in the mail – something to hold in your hands and sift through, keep at your bedside, and add your own intuitive musings to the book as well!

I am only offering this during the month of January, since this is meant to be a way to jump-start your focus for the new year, and to see what the Angels want you to focus on in the months ahead.

Since this is a new offering, I am offering this at an introductory price of $55.55 US.

Contact me if you have any questions, or go directly to my Angel Website Page for more info!

Lessons of LOVE

This year has been a year of learning LOVE lessons, for me.

I pulled a card today just because I wanted to start posting again, here. I’ve been a little absent!

This card has so much meaning for me, and I think it’s NO coincidence that it came up when the angels knew I was pulling a card with intention to write about whichever card came up.

Not only do the words express meaning to me, but the imagery is RICH with personal symbolism.

The lion, bear and wolf in the background communicate the dark energies around (and inside) me that threaten my LOVE energy that I’ve been working so hard in the past year and a half to REBUILD (mostly toward my husband – yep – it’s that time in our marriage when love changes, fades, or is drowned away by hurtful words and resentment). The lion, bear, and wolf could each represent something different to me. The wolf, down at the bottom, looking quite foreboding, could represent my fears that even though things are good right now, I worry that I have to keep myself on guard if my husband throws arrows at me again (can my love-shield protect me from the next strike?). The bear, a huge creature, is my own anxiety which keeps me in constant fear of being hurt again, which also leads me to a very dark place sometimes, following those memories that make me feel angry and depressed, shoving me down into my dark pit of despair. The lion… for some reason, the lion doesn’t look quite as foreboding to me – I get a sense that he is my independent spirit who could go either way.

And then there are the elements in the foreground: Jesus himself, representing the epitome and strength of love energy, and the lambs representing the fragile nature of love – the part that needs God’s protection through prayer and guidance.

And then suddenly I notice the little lamb in Jesus arms, looking at a monarch butterfly that has perched on his side!

At that I have to laugh out loud, because I see specific meaning there for me.

I illustrated a little children’s book this year for a friend called “Pretty Betty Butterfly” about a MONARCH butterfly (ha!! WOW!). I’ve been wanting to concentrate more on developing delightful and inspiring picture books for kids in 2015! This card feels like an affirmation that it is definitely along the right path for me to do so. I also feel that following this path will help fuel my love energy as well! Creativity is a wonderful and playful way to invite positive energies into your heart!

WHEW! Normally I’m not so long-winded with my posts, but I had a LOT to share about this message.

WHAT DO THE LION, BEAR AND WOLF symbolize for you? And what does that little butterfly represent for you as well? Feel free to share!! Love and blessings to all who find and read this post!

Life Review Time.

There are times where we are forced to sit and think about our lives, to evaluate what might be unbalanced.

When you are stricken with illness suddenly, this can certainly be one of those times.

This past week I’ve been sick, and have been very frustrated about it, wishing I could just feel better – not only because I was sick of feeling miserable, but so I could get back to getting things done.

The truth is, though, I had hit a wall. I knew I was being told to take it easy, but I was not feeling right about it because I still had a lot on my plate. People were finally approaching me to do artwork for them, and I had a pretty big stack building on my “to do” list. But I was feeling stagnant. WHY? I was wondering… and was very frustrated about it. Then I finally got hit with a MEGA bad cold which wiped me out for almost a whole week.

I finally took the hint.

I decided, Okay. I guess I need to just tell myself I’m taking “sick time” until I feel well, and really focus that time on getting well again… drinking hot tea and eating oranges all day, laying on the couch watching “Lost” episodes on Netflix. There were things that popped up which I had to work my sick time around… I suddenly received a response from a job application I submitted, and needed to come in to exhibit my skills at a workshop. Luckily no speaking involved, because my voice was gone, anyway. I also had committed already to help at the school Book Fair. There were things I had to let go of, like one of my son’s baseball games… and working on basically anything for myself, and even Facebook.

Shutting down for a few days really helped me to grow a fresh appreciation for feeling WELL again, and helped teach me which things in my life were most important. It also reminded me that I had been overdoing it with personal stress, which I know is one of the reasons my body was so susceptible to this nasty cold/flu. This happens way too often. You’d think I’d learn by now.

I like that this is the card that came up today, because it allows me to tell about my experience this week, and can be a good reminder to you to take a look at your own life right now. Ask yourself what might be out of balance for you in a serious way. Are you putting too many small priorities to the top of your list? What is REALLY most important right now?

The little things can wait, if you feel they are adding to overwhelm.

Trust Your Intuition, and Follow Those Breadcrumbs!

“Inner Power” and “Honoring Your True Feelings” = LISTEN TO YOUR INTUITION!!

I’ve been getting a lot of messages coming through to me on a daily basis. Sometimes I listen, sometimes I’m just too busy in my thoughts to pay attention. When I do cast the message aside, I almost always get a reminder later on. Sometimes I don’t even realize it’s a “message” I’m getting UNTIL I receive the afterward nudge. Repetition get s my attention, as it does for most of us… so pay attention to repetitious things you hear around you.

For example…

I was just posting on Facebook yesterday that my son wanted a lizard VERY badly, and I put the question out, “lizard or snake?” to my Facebook friends, knowing I would surely get some good responses and advice from my friends. I had begun to just wonder if a snake would be a better pet, so I wanted to just put the question out here. Before I even finished typing my post, I heard the kids talking upstairs, and Jack uttered the words, “lizards and snakes” to Rose.

That’s what I’m talking about… sometimes we don’t know we’re following an angel nudge until some weird little thing like that happens. To me, it communicated that I was doing the right thing, putting the question out there on Facebook, to see what kind of advice I would get back.

Angel nudges don’t always have to be some amazing awe-inspiring message. They can be as simple as a nod, telling you, “Yep – you’re doing the right thing there. Good job.”

I wish more people would listen to the little things. They are easy to overlook because they might not seem very important. But believe me, every message is important. Every little breadcrumb keeps us moving in the right directions.

I don’t know if getting a lizard for my son is a good idea or not… but I do know it’s a good thing that I’m looking into the idea instead of shrugging it off.

 

Each Day is a Succulent New Beginning – SARK

I’ve been having a rough time at home lately, and that’s putting it mildly.

I’m realizing I really need to get back to pulling cards each day to center myself, and get into a state of calm to begin the day… or just ANY time of the day. ANYTHING to keep myself from catapulting into a state of overwhelm, uncontrolled anxiety, or depression.

With intention to blog about whichever card I pulled today, I decided to try pulling from my SARK cards today. She always has a happy little message to share. Always uplifting.

The message, of course, was a perfect one for me:

“Each day is a succulent new beginning.”

I smiled.

Yesterday I had a panic attack after realizing I was out of color ink at home, and my son needed me to print out photos for his Animal Project which was due today. This might seem like a poor excuse to have a panic attack, but it was just the final trigger to put me into a tailspin. Sometimes all you need is just one more thing to go wrong and hat was it for me. It wasn’t that we were out of ink… it was the fact that I planned poorly, and due to my mishap, I had more stress to face for the evening (had to feed my kids dinner and get jack to his first baseball game, which lasted until 8:30pm). There was NO time to go to the store to get more color ink… and them I realized… “What am I so worried about? So we can’t print color… we still have a black and white printer!” (DUH!) So I gave myself the permission slip to print the rest of his project images in black and white.

SIGH.

And today is a SUCCULENT NEW BEGINNING.

I began my day with the intention to do some much needed self care, and to get some blogging done which has been pulling at my soul. I didn’t plan to write in this blog, but I am very happy I decided to, and hopefully can renew my pattern of pulling a card every day or so, to center myself and share my reading here.

SIGH. Yes, I’m ready for a Succulent New Beginning!  🙂

Calling ALL Angel Readers – Let’s HANGOUT! Google + Hangout, That is!

I’ve been thinking about doing this for a while, and I believe it’s finally TIME.

I want to try this… who’s with me?

It’s a gathering of us Angel Readers (certified or not) to practice our skills of intuition on each other, and learn from each other as well! What happens in these meetings? I had to sketch out the image above to help show you. We EACH get a chance in the spotlight where everyone in the group gives us a reading. So if you join the group, no only will you get to practice, but you will also get the chance to get a reading form every person in the group!

A group of us around the Cleveland area do this (just a small group – we meet in a living room), but I really want to do this with more people – I have so many angel friends here online, and this really seems like something fun to try with my online angel buds!

If you are interested in joining this group, please comment below and/or join the PRIVATE Facebook Group I’m setting up for us, so we can easily connect with each other. Also this way I can more easily contact you to set up our Hangouts.

I can also help advise you on how to get set up with Google + Hangouts. If you have a webcam, you can join us. And if we have enough interest, I could set up a FreeConferenceCall for those of you who can’t do the webcam thing.

So are you in? If so, join the Facebook Group, and I’ll see you there!

I am in an ANGEL GROOVE!

I am totally feeling the angel groove thang!

So I had to announce it to the world and urge you to take advantage!!

Recently I’ve even caught onto some past-life issues and spirit guides have popped up to surprise me during recent readings. This is not a normal occurrence for me, so I’m feeling especially tuned in.

The short of it: PLEASE contact me for a reading to launch your year, and be as specific as you want with your questions! Right now I prefer doing video recordings as a private link on YouTube, and I like to add some extra fun by including a fun giftie to snail mail to you (an angel card pulled for you to KEEP).

Magical Message from the Fairies – in my own backyard!

Sometimes the messages come from fairies as well.

I’ve been told the fairies are trying to communicate with me. This is the first time I’ve ever recognized a FAIRY message so clearly in everyday life. Divine messages, yes. Fairy messages, I’m not as familiar… BUT THIS TIME…

I just discovered a MESSAGE from the FAIRIES in my own backyard. At first I looked in the backyard and though, “oh how quaint – there’s a fairy ring in my backyard!” I had to snap a photo and share it today.

The more I explored it, chatting about it, the more I began to focus on the realization that the fairy ring was actually more like a figure-8 shape. So there are really TWO rings… two rings…

TWO RINGS.

HELLO.

I was struck by the literal words, “two rings,” linking together to form a figure-8 fairy ring in my backyard.

I’ve been having marital strife this year in a big way and I’ve been dealing with it by taking therapy and also by following The Love Dare. I took the imagery from the Fairies to be a visual communication – communicating that the fairies are with me to help with my marriage, trying to add levity in my relationship. I can feel their energy right now, as I let it in, speaking to me – letting me know that levity is something great that my marriage needs right now and that the fairies are happy to help me with that.

Wow.

Thank you, fairies!
Time for me to start paying more attention to you guys!  🙂

Time for a CHANGE? … But what KIND of change?

I’m way too close to this message, I think, to really understand what it means for me. It could be a change based on upcoming projects I have going on. Maybe one of them will actually spark a new direction for me. Or it could be a change within my workplace.

OR (for me) it could have to do with simply an angel nudge to CHANGE my negative feelings toward my husband today.

I do know that the message of “CHANGE” was strong for me today, because of this DOUBLE message.

I was taking my morning walk and found the path before me at one point was sprinkled with loose pennies, a dime, and a nickel. I KNEW that this had to be a message of some kind and spent the rest of my walk trying to figure out what the angels might be trying to tell me, leaving the coins on the ground to maybe pick up later on my return route. I immediately thought of the word “CHANGE.” After all it was someone’s spare change spilled and scattered all over the sidewalk.

Personally, I feel this message of change has to do with my feelings toward my husband today because I was feeling intense upset while beginning my walk. The appearance of the angel card later this morning was confirmation that I was on the right track. It was a gloomy morning for a walk. Dreary outside. I brought an umbrella just in case.

Suddenly the umbrella seems important to me. One thing I was remembering from last night was my husband was telling me to close the windows of the car  because it looked as if it might rain – even though I doubted it would rain. I’m getting the message to “change negative expectations.” Don’t expect the rain. Keep the umbrella at bay. Let the sunshine in. Stop carrying the cloud.

On my return walk, noticing the change was still there on the sidewalk, I picked it up, and of course there was a Canadian penny among the patch of change (I was born in Canada). I had to smile at that. I always look at the year, too, to see if that will have any significance. The year on the penny was 2003 – not a significant year for me, really, but it was a time period when my marriage was still fresh and happy.

What does the word “CHANGE” communicate to YOU today? Feel free to share!
