Working Back from the Results

Today started off full of promise where I jumped out of bed with my mind buzzing with ideas. I quickly wrote them all down in my journal and started to put together my thoughts for my forthcoming talks on 7th and 8th June.

As I was rehearsing my talk I found myself distracted by internal and external events, e.g: cat meowing for food; my tummy rumbling; partner coming in and out of the kitchen. I felt my resolve quickly transforming into frustration. So, I decided to take my work to the library. As I parked near the library I changed my mind as I didn't fancy walking through the rain to sit in a stuffy room with other computer users whilst I tried to create.

This pattern continued through lunch time until I decided to practice what I was trying to share. I meditated with my crystals and let them help me release my internal blocks to creating, which were evidently being symbolically shown to me in my external world.

Did this stop the distractions? No, of course not: I watched 'Loose Women' (a women's chat show) and had something else to eat, read my emails, went on face book and then sat down to write this post. As I was in my flow I got a call from my loving other half to help him with something...

So, what is this all about?

Sometimes, it is not enough to have that brilliant idea; the best tools and techniques to move on; the time or space. It is about knowing, what it is you want to achieve. You need to have the result in the fore of your mind and work back ward.

This is sometimes harder for creative people who need to be in the moment; to get the inspiration; to go with the feeling. I have all that, what I need at the moment is structure to keep me focused.

I continued with my ‘running around’ for another two hours where I picked up my son from work, went food shopping and booked a client in for crystal therapy. In amongst all this I also promised my event organizer that I would have my bio ready within the hour (I never said which hour J )

Food is in the oven I am back on the lap top and finishing off this post. My head is clearer even if my body is more tired. There are still hours left in this day where I can finish what I started at 7 am this morning.

Message from my angels (Have just picked myself an angel card as I write)

‘I am the Angel of Marriage and I am assisting you right now!!’

In other words, I need to find some time for my other half…today!!!!

Think Love!

The angels answer my question on how to deal with 'the runaway stream of life' - life happens and sometimes we get lost in the 'tumultuous rivers'. Following is their message;


'Be still child, when tumultuous rivers run over you, BE STILL!

Do not fear, you will not be washed away.

Your true essence will remain intact.

BREATHE and this will be the signal for us to throw you the tow line.

Hold on to it, hold on tight, with your thoughts of love.

Do not allow thoughts of dread and blame take over, for once you let them in you will lose your grip. You will be then taken by the illusion of the river running down the mountain, with its fury and blame.

Once you are in the sea of fire, you cannot do anything but PRAY and weather the storm.

You are safe though, we will be guiding and protecting you no matter what.

But, we cannot make you choose which thoughts you think.

So, THINK LOVE and you will be saved from the scathes and scratches of the runaway stream of life.

Angels with love and jubilation.'


Much love Christina xx

Healing

I have been thinking about healing this past week, and how some people heal and others don't.

I haven't had a cold for some time, and for a while have been passing headaches, aches and pains and stuffiness as symptoms of energetic shifts. I am sensible though and use my instincts to assess if it needs the doctor's input.

I came down with a really bad sore throat over the weekend. I 'knew' why! Despite the fact that my son has had a cold all week, I understood, energetically, my body had created this illness for a reason.

Symbolically the throat is the seat of the will. I have been battling with, 'God your will not mine' for some time now and not really feeling it. I am so headstrong that my stubbornness seems to take over.

To top that I then feel angry that I am not GETTING IT!

I do what most people do- beat myself up- for not being this, not doing that, not achieving this, not understanding that.

The more I internalized my anger, my throat let me know what a sore point this was for me, by manifesting into a sore, painful throat.

So why is my son ill? And later on that day, why was my daughter complaining of a sore throat? ANGER!!!!

Is this their anger, my anger, anger in general?? A bit of everything, they are teens and that is enough on its own, but I believe as everything is energy, what is the strongest feeling, is what is felt the most.

Now guilt was setting in so I decided to call upon the angels help!

I used some angel visualization to heal my throat. I asked Archangel Michael to cut away any negativity within and without me, and for my children.

I then asked Archangel Raphael to put his emerald-green healing light over our throats.

I then let go (or tried to) waiting for the instantaneous healing I have read happens to some people.

Nothing!!!!

I tried again, but then remembered that it is not the amount of times you do it, it is the trust that healing is already given.

So I started affirming, 'I am healed!'

I had a fitful night, where I can't say I felt the angelic miracle of healing, but awoke then next day with no sore throat, but a very runny nose. So It did work!!!!

I am still ill, but I feel that this is a deep release, and sometimes we have to go through it to become healed. Also, I have spent some low down time, where I have had a chance to re-charge and re-assess my life.

I have spent some lovely moments in nature as well, planting my vegetables on my allotment, where I feel that miracles have been happening all around, helping me heal.

So, why do some people heal and some don't??

I believe, that there are blocks to healing. Our beliefs can be blocks, the belief that 'it takes time' to heal is very ingrained. Or a fear to heal. Some people feel a form of addiction to not been well, they can use it sub-consciously as a reason to procrastinate. Also it is leverage; pain, illness or trauma, is a manipulation tool.

There is also the belief that 'I don't deserve' to be healed, happy, whole. Or the collective belief, especially with flu and viruses, that,'I am bound to get this since this is what the news, the doctors, the parents at school... are saying'

And then there is the need to go through the pain sometimes, to become aware of what is really happening. Sometimes, we need an illness as a way to make us STOP!!!!!

New Moon Creations!

I would like to introduce you to a new friend. I drew this angel a couple of months ago and then put him away in my drawer. As I was rummaging away, looking for something, I caught sight of his knowing face.

So, here he is, too cute to stay hidden away in some dark draw. Symbolic really, coming out of the darkness of our mind, we are greeted with the light of the day, where everything seems much more clear.


When there is a New moon I become very creative, and I need to express my creativeness. So Last night a lovely little fairy and her Unicorn graced my space.

I love the creating process that art gives me. It is like giving birth to your child, you know them already as they are inside you, but you still have that excitement and anticipation to see what they look like, and more importantly to see if they are well.

Express your self in creative ways, the New Moon energy is urging us all to let our light shine.

Growing- reaching completion!

Finally I have my little plot of land that I can plant my Little seedlings in!

The council here in Birmingham UK, rents out little plots of land called allotments. You can grow your own fruit, vegetables and flowers.

I was so desperate for some 'Earth' as I live in an apartment, I wanted to have some land where I could feel grounded.

I have only been waiting for two months, there is usually a long waiting list. It seems my positive intentions have drawn the allotment to me.

Unfortunately, most of my seedlings that I planted have died. Some died when I re-planted them into bigger pots, the rest perished when my daughter accidentally knocked them over.

I have three little aubergine shoots left. They are my babies and I feel apprehensive in putting them in the vast open air.

The allotment needs alot of work. It is quite large and if I'm honest looks like a field. But its mine (for now)

We were given the choice from 9 plots, I chose mine for two reason;

1) There was a lone daffodil at the outskirts of the 'field'.
2) There was a lone soft, white feather.

My Angels where guiding me to take it!

Also, it was plot number 63. I'm not sure if that number has any special meaning, but what little I know of numerology, 6 + 3 = 9
Some meanings for the number 9 are;

The nine Choruses of the Angels:

Seraphes, angels of love and light;
Cherubs, angels of wisdom and intelligence;
Thrones, angels of force and life;
Dominations, angels of liberty;
Principalities, angels of eternity and memory;
Powers, angels of holiness;
Vertues, angels of humility;
Archangels, having for attribute the justice;
Ordinary angels, to which we attribute the innocence

The number nine is held in great reverence in the occult sciences; and in mathematical science it has properties and powers which are found in no other number.

It is the last of the digits, and thus marks the end; and is significant of the conclusion of a matter.

Nine is the number of finality or judgment.

So, as I am angel guided and am committed to following the guidance I am shown, I have been thinking about what this plot of land is showing me symbolically.

The following is what I have come up with;

- There were nine plots to choose from and the plot was number 63, 6 + 3= 9, so 9 is important
- As nine is the number of finality, there is something in my life which is reaching completion.
- There are 9 choruses of Angels with different attributes. Are these the attributes I am learning and is it here on my plot that I am going to learn them?

I am sure I will learn alot here on my little plot. I need to start from scratch, The land needs cultivating, plowing, and all the other gardening jargon I don't know about.

I will need patience and respect for nature, I will need to become humble and trust the force of life.

I hope that here on my plot I can learn about all I need to know, basking in the light of the Divine.

I feel blessed!

Relentlessly Positive

I gave an Angel card reading to the lovely Sarah Clark, who is a member on the site High Heeled Guide to Enlightenment. Sarah, kindly interviewed me after the reading, wanting to find out more about Angels, Angel card readings and Moi!

You can find the interview on her blog Relentlessly Positive

I Can't Hear You!

I haven't picked a card today!
I haven't picked a crystal!

I feel I want to be in my own thoughts and take my own counsel.

I haven't forgotten my Angels, and I am still carrying my crystals with me, but I feel I need to give another message today.

The message of trusting your own counsel.

But what if your own counsel is rubbish?

So be it!

It is learning to trust that whatever thought you receive, whether you believe it is from the Angels, God, the Universe, you are a part of this equation too.

So, today, I am not listening to the Angels, I am having a day off.

It doesn't mean that they are not there waiting with love, for us to ask for assistance or whisper some loving message into our consciousness. For they do not leave our side, but they respect our wishes.

As humans, we have free will and this can rule the roost sometimes. My will is ruling today. I don't want to listen to anyone, not even my beloved Angels.

I want to feel sorry for myself, and be a little selfish. I want to not be wise, or gentle. I want to be irresponsible and lazy!

I almost hear a few giggles!

'Who's there?'

I see in my mind's eye a flurry of material swishing off.

My angels are having a laugh with me. They don't take my moods seriously, they understand that I need them now and then, but always see the funny side of things.

I 'imagine' they are ruffling my hair saying as you do to an impetuous child,

'You in a bad mood?'.

This puts me in a badder mood, stomping my feet as a child.

'I can't hear you so go away!'

I suddenly think that I should apologise as I don't really want them to go, so I just ask them to be patient with me today, as I am having a 'woe is me' day.

I picture them smiling and I feel all warm and safe.

It doesn't matter how hard we try to block out the guidance, from God, the Angels, the Universe, we are always loved and supported, and they wait patiently for our requests for help.

So go ahead, listen to your own counsel today if you want, if you get it all wrong, there is always another day and another way, and of course you can always ask your Angels!

All is Alright!

It is a Full Moon today!

I am a 'sensitive' which basically means I am very sensitive to the energies around me from the environment, cosmos and other people.

I have been feeling very wobbly and having heart palpitations and dizziness. I have come to accept these feelings, however uncomfortable and celebrate them instead of fearing them.

When I do go into fear mode and think I am going to have a heart attack or combust into flames, I use by breath, re-centre and pray for more courage and assistance.

A few days before a Full Moon, I seem to feel these 'symptoms' more acutely. We all feel the phases of the moon, movement in the heavens, the electromagnetic fog from electrical appliances and the negativity/positivity of others. Some of us feel it or are more aware of it more than others.

I received a simple and clear message today which I would like to share:

All is Alright!

All is clear.
All is bright.
All is here.
All is alright!

Do what makes you feel alright!

The Angels guidance is to spend time alone in nature. Do what makes you feel feel bright, present and has clarity.

Reminding yourself, ALL IS ALRIGHT!!!

Daily Angel and Crystal Guidance

I just had an amazing meditation where It felt like I was being connected to a very high Source of spiritual guidance. I had to break away from the meditation as I felt it was too intense, so much so that I needed to ground myself down.

Whilst making a tea (tea grounds me quickly especially if accompanied with a biscuit) I had a random thought that I should pick an angel card daily for my blog and also a crystal.

As I have a natural affinity with both angels and crystals, I do this daily for myself, but the thought was very specifically for the blog. So as I am angelguided I offer you today's angel and crystal picked intuitively (may be this can be another post on how to pick cards, crystals or anything intuitively)

Angel card for today (Oracle cards 'Messages from your Angels' by Doreen Virtue)

Archangel Michael
