Posted on by
Happy Friday.
We all have Life Goals. Some people will say they want to be wealthy and  famous. However those things do not bring happiness. If you look at our thought for the day the life goals on our list show the things that bring true personal happiness. They fill us with love and a desire to be the best person we can be. maybe it’s time to update our list of life goals!

MNN: 13 inspiring quotes from Martin Luther King Jr.

King’s famous words are a reminder of how to live in any era.

Martin Luther King Jr.’s name is synonymous with the civil rights movement that swept the nation in the ’60s. He fought for equal rights for African-Americans at a time when segregation was prevalent. From his iconic “I Have a Dream” speech during the March on Washington in 1963 to his famous Alabama march from Selma to Montgomery, King was a beacon of hope during a dark time in American history. He advocated for non-violence, preaching love, acceptance and equality while pushing for change.

Beliefnet: Dream Building Lessons From The Movies

Movies allow us to experience our grandest dreams. They inspire us, take us on journeys, and offer new perspectives.

They plant ideas and give us the visual language to describe and understand them. Full of symbolism and metaphor, quotes and history, and the possibilities of tomorrow, they share the dreams of others that have become realized, and help us to experience our own.

mindbodygreen: How To Make Your Small Space A Sanctuary

As a yoga teacher, wellness blogger at Om & the City, and proud dog mama living in New York City, my home is my sanctuary. Whether I’m trying to drown out Manhattan traffic to tune in to my meditation practice, streaming my favorite soul 1970s tunes to test a yoga flow, or asking Alexa to turn on a podcast while I’m cooking, Sonos helps me take control of the big city noise and fill my home with the sounds that enhance my life. In small urban dwellings like mine, listening better truly means living better.

Spiritual Unite: When You Experience 4th Dimension Spiritual Awakening

When we experience 4th dimension spiritual awakening, we move from a perspective of the world rooted in the physical to a higher level of perception. Where we begin to see that the trappings of the third dimension are meaningless in comparison to what lies beyond it. This is a time of significant personal development and the stepping stone towards 5th-dimensional

Patheos-Pagan: Why We Believe in Untrue Things

I got through most of the Ostara/Easter season without seeing the dreaded “This is Ishtar: Pronounced Easter” meme. (For those of you not in the know, Ishtar/Easter is an inaccurate meme often passed around by Pagans and atheists near Easter. Ishtar was never pronounced “Easter” and the holiday we call “Easter” in English wasn’t called that for several hundred years. In other words, the entire theory is silly.) But things turned around on Easter Sunday with the Ishtar/Easter meme coming back to life on social media. (Sort of like Zombie-Jesus, but I digress.)

Inner Journey: Nothing Needs To Be Fixed

“If you are ready to accept all which you find in yourself, you will be able to move through everything with deep sensitivity, awareness, love and understanding.”
— Gerd Ziegler

As we understand it, the spiritual journey is not about becoming perfect. It’s about acceptance, releasing judgment, and embracing everything in wholeness.

This is a great challenge for our personality. We’ve grown up comparing ourselves to others, always judging how we’re better and worse than those around us. And many of us are very good at finding fault with ourselves.

If we release judgment, then nothing needs to be fixed — including you. Explore inviting your soul to help you accept all that is and experience a whole new way of living.

“Wherever you are is always the right place. There is never a need to fix anything, to hitch up the bootstraps of the soul and start at some higher place. Start right where you are.”
— Julia Cameron

A Note from the Universe

For simply giving thanks when you lie down to sleep each night or from time to time, for no reason or rhyme, you’ll begin to move with life instead of against it.

You’ll be shown that life could not possibly be more beautiful than it already is. You’ll see that you are the fountainhead of your experience. You’ll remember that you transcend all things time and space, and thus are their very master. And you’ll find that you live in a paradise where the only thing that truly seems impossible is how powerful you really are and how much you are loved.

What else would you think about, anyway?

Phew!

Peace

“I have found that life persists in the midst of destruction and therefore must be a higher law than that of destruction. Only under that law would a well-ordered society be intelligible and life worth living.”  ~-Mahatma Gandhi

With everything we’ve been through these past few months, these words ring true, loud and clear. Peace is a process, an ongoing movement that doesn’t stand still. We are all a part of this process, and our contributions to a peaceful society make a difference.

MNN: Act like a Swede and take a ‘fika’ break today

The American concept of a coffee break sometimes feels like something of a misnomer in that the “break” aspect means little more than heading to a coffee shop or cart, getting a tall/venti/whatever size to-go cup of coffee and returning to your desk.

The hustle-and-bustle expectation of the American workday isn’t really built for an actual break, but the Swedish workday is constructed with such breaks in mind, and there’s even a word for it: fika.

Change is Knocking: Cat’s Angel Message for April 5, 2018 


 April Theme:  We are being challenged to change ourselves. You have the power to make things happen and the Universe is on your side.




 One expected growth, change; without it, the world was less, the well of inspiration dried up, the muses fled. – Charles de Lint






45:  In previous readings we have talked about how change is necessary for our overall growth. Unwillingness to embrace change not only only keeps us from growing it keeps us from moving forward and fulfilling our dreams and goals. Our energy becomes blocked and all the wonderful things that Universe is trying to send us doesn’t arrive. Today is a reminder to stop fighting the changes that life is offering. You know what you need to do and now is time to allow these things to happen. How we view change lies in our perception of it. There are two choices, fear change or see change as a new adventure. Remember that a long with our human support system we also have the Universe on our side as well. Ask for help, courage and strength and they will be there for you. The changes that you make are a good thing and will benefit you and your loved ones. Be bold and embrace these changes head on!






As you work with change call on Cordelia the Celtic Goddess of Spring. She can help you face these changes with a light heart or the Yoruban Goddess Oya who teaches us that change should not be feared but embraced as an adventure. Archangel Jeremiel can assist in all areas of life changes and the Ascended Master Maitreya who shows us that the path to change ins’t so scary when faced with laughter and joy.




Our Sacred Stones for today include: Zincite which helps us manifest our full potential as we embrace life’s changes. Bloodstone brings the ability to adapt to change more easily and Chrysocolla which allows us to accept change with calmness and serenity making for smoother transitions.






Bright blessings for a magickal day!

Thought For The Day: April 5, 2018 “What Does Normal Mean Anyway?”

			
						

				Posted on   by  			

			
					


				

			


Happy Thursday,






We’re all unique and in our own way we’re all normal. Sometimes we have doubts about ourselves and sometimes we wonder if we talked, acted or looked different if we would be happier.  Happy people are the ones who accept themselves and everything about them. Do they want to change things… of course. The difference is that they want to change to please themselves, not somebody else. Love yourself and everything about you. Dare to be yourself, the unique, amazingly “normal” person that you are!

A Bountiful Moment


The answers to your questions, dreams, desires are around you everywhere you just need to be aware.


Daily Thought: It is easy to feel like you don’t have the answers or become overwhelmed at a situation that is new. But the answer to what is creating the anxiety is there right in front of you. All you have to do is sit still for a moment and listen. Quieting your mind and being open to the answers that surround you is the challenge not the situation you are facing.


Daily Practice: When you are faced with a challenge today look at it clearly by quieting your mind and looking past what is creating the fear. Take a deep breathe in and slowly release it two to three times. Now relook at the situation and act on the solution that enters your mind. Move through the situation by acting not thinking.


Have a Great Day and Believe in Yourself!

Patheos-Pagan: Paganism as an Orientation


Back at the end of February I came across this excellent piece by Heron Michelle titled Witchery as an Orientation and Sacred Mission. It’s her story of how being a witch isn’t a choice for her – it’s part of who and what she is. The essay is worth your time to read in its entirety – here’s a key quote:


Witchery isn’t a choice for me. There is a being-ness to witchery, the aptitude for deeply, broadly sensing a far greater “normal” than others … Those with an orientation of witchery, naturally glide past the veil of illusion as our second-nature. This tends to become isolating, as muggle-society pushes us to the fringes, and calls us “crazy.”

Inner Journey: Open to Awareness


“Mindfulness means moment-to-moment, non-judgmental awareness. It is cultivated by refining our capacity to pay attention, intentionally, in the present moment, and then sustaining that attention over time as best we can. In the process, we become more in touch with our life as it is unfolding.”

— Myla & Jon Kabat-Zinn


Why do we want to become more aware?


If we remain unaware, we:

•repeat the past,

•remain stuck in relationships,

•live superficial, literal and one dimensional lives,

•lack experiences of love and beauty, and

•have limited connection to others and the universe.


With awareness, we are fully involved with life. Awareness is sensing deeply and sensitively for what really is. To do this, we need to approach the present as totally new. When we can be open and attentive in each moment, we begin to free ourselves from the conditioning of the past and the suffering that it so often brings.


“If moment by moment you can keep your mind clear then nothing will confuse you.”

— Sheng Yen

Paste new pictures in your scrapbook, on your vision board, and around your home and office. Physically prepare for the changes that you wish to experience in your life. You’ve done this before. You know it works. You’re due for an encore. It’s time to amaze. That’s why you’re there.

No Conditions: Cat’s Angel Message for April 4, 2018 


 April Theme:  We are being challenged to change ourselves. You have the power to make things happen and the Universe is on your side.




 It is a law of life that problems arise when conditions are there for their solution. – Walter Sisulu




 


44: Our Spiritual Helpers (Angels, Archangels, Ascended Masters and Deities that are not our patron) surround us all the time even though we may not be aware of it. Their job is to protect, help and guide us when we need it. Our helpers will always do what’s best for us, but remember that we limit their influence when we give them specific instructions or place conditions on what kind of help we need. Asking for help and then letting them do their job opens the way to receiving all the blessings the Universe has in store for us including some we never even dreamed of!






Strike up a line of conversation and communication with your Spiritual Helpers today and simply ask for what you need right now. (protection, healing, assistance etc.) You can also call on the Archangels for help or for specific concerns:




Ariel helps with all areas of environment concerns and animals.


Azrael helps the grieving and those who are transitioning.


Chamuel helps in all areas of relationships.


Gabriel helps artists and all issues of fertility.


Haniel enhances our healing abilities


Jeremiel helps us make positive life changes.


Jophiel helps to work through ugly situations and promotes a new positive light on them


Metatron helps issues involving children.


Michael offers protection.


Raguel empowers the underdog and helps resolve arguments.


Raphael assists in all areas of healing.


Raziel helps us to manifest what we need.


Sandalphon delivers our prayers to the Divine and to specific angels or ascended masters.


Uriel helps in all areas and life lessons


Use  one of your  angel crystals today, Angelite, Celestite, Apophyllite, Seraphinite or Moldavite to assist in divine communication.






 


Bright blessings for a magickal day!

Thought For The Day: April 4, 2018 “Building Your Dream”

			
						

				Posted on   by  			

			
					


				

			


Happy Wednesday,






Everyone’s dreams are important….. yours, mine and theirs. Each of us is responsible for building our own and we can’t rely on others to do it for us. Sometimes we get suckered in to helping others  create their dream. They don’t care about your dream they just want you on board to help make theirs happen. This is not okay. Remember that your dream is just as important as theirs. if it meshes with yours… great! If not then make sure that you don’t let yours fall by the wayside. Our dreams create hope and energy which we need on this adventure we call life!

Our angels like to send us signs to let us know they are listening and working on our prayers and requests. Symbols like feathers are most important when they are meaningful to the person who receives them, especially if you have asked your angels for a sign. The first question to ask is “What does the sign mean to me?” What were you doing or thinking about when you noticed the sign or feather? When analyzing anything, ask yourself first always, “What does this mean to me?”

Daily Practice: Visualize today the completion of something you have set into motion. See yourself doing it. What do you look like? Where are you at? What and who is around you? Spend time in that space several times today and act as if you are already there.


Have a Great Day and Believe in Yourself!

Peace


“Our goal must be not peace in our time but peace for all time.”  -Harry S. Truman (1884-1972) Informal remarks, Galesberg, Illinois, 1950


In turbulent times, where is our attention? On the problem? Or on the desired outcome? What can we do to help the world situation, while we are here comfortable in our homes and we know that others are suffering? We can’t all go out and battle, nor would that help even if we could. We must think peace. We must bring our attention to peace. We must create a unified consciousness of PEACE ON EARTH, GOODWILL TO ALL. We must build a class consciousness of love and caring. Starting right here and right now, with each one of us.

Support Is A Blessing: Cat’s Angel Message for April 3, 2018 


 April Theme:  We are being challenged to change ourselves. You have the power to make things happen and the Universe is on your side.




 When your whole family is loving and supportive, it is a great blessing. But when family members are indifferent or hostile, release your expectations, and find the love and support you need elsewhere. – Jonathan Lockwood Huie






43: Everyone needs a loving support system, and this consists of friends and family. However we also have help in the Divine realms in the form of the angels,the ascended masters or our patron Goddess/God. By sharing our hopes, dreams, fears or even grief with our support systems the wheels begin to turn and things are set in motion.  By working together we can elevate our success and healing rate. We then find that we are able to work the small miracles that enrich our lives as well as appreciating the tiny miracles that bring peace and joy on a daily level.


Archangel Azrael can assist those experiencing grief, Archangel Michael helps us to find solutions to problems and surrounds with protection. The Ascended Master Buddha brings us to find peace on all levels and the Hindu God Ganesh helps to remove the things that stand in our way. For healing of heart and spirit The Celtic Goddess Nemetona (Lady of the Sacred Grove)  teaches us how heal through nature and wild places and the Goddess Sulis teaches us about the healing and spiritually cleansing power of water.


Our Sacred Stones for today are:  Rose Quartz, this essential healing stone truly helps on so many levels. It’s gentle energy soothes our emotions and hearts. It helps us to both give and receive love and shows us a positive side to the world around us. Amazonite helps to soothe emotional trauma as it eases stress and worry and Pink Beryl (Morganite) helps us to overcome  resistance to healing. It also promotes awareness of any unfulfilled emotional needs and feelings that need to be expressed.




 


Bright blessings for a magickal day!

Thought For The Day: April 3, 2018 “I Think I Can”

Happy Tuesday,






Our thought for today reminds me of the “Little Engine That Could”. Do you remember that story? It’s about believing in yourself and making a concentrated effort to make things happen. You can do anything you set your mind to so don’t sell yourself short and be Negative Nellie. You’ve totally got this!
