Hope and Confidence: Cat’s Angel Message for May 12, 2019

May’s Theme: This month brings changes into your life. While change sometimes feels scary, it is a necessary thing for our overall growth. Be willing to embrace it and allow it to happen naturally and get ready for better things!



Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope or confidence. – Helen Keller




512:  The work associated with change can be challenging to say the least. However, these changes that are taking place are for the best and the best FOR us. Today the universe is asking us to embrace the changes currently taking place. Transformations do take time but the benefits will definitely worth it as they help us to align with both life purpose and soul mission. The key is to meet change with openness and  optimism. This helps us to become more self reliant and confident as it  builds both trust and faith.This is the groundwork on which all new things start and the basis for personal fulfillment and happiness. Ask for help or guidance if you need it and remember that help comes in all forms and can arrive from any direction. Give yourself a BIG hug today, you deserve it!




Archangel Michael helps us to find the courage and direction that we need to work through any obstacles that pop up. He teaches us that we have what it takes to create new things for ourselves as he helps us reach new levels of self confidence. The Ascended Master Saint Germain helps us to find a cheerful and optimistic attitude and approach to working with the changes that life hands us.. And the Celtic goddess Brigid helps us to walk the path of the  loving warrior who holds on to their beliefs and meets challenges with an open and creative mind. Brigid tells us “Hope and optimism shine like the sun and like the sun they hold powerful energy. This energy will help you find your way.”




Our Sacred Stones for today include the following:  Rose Quartz which when used with positive affirmative thinking will enhance that energy and help you remember your  the intentions you set. Bloodstone gives us the ability to adapt to the changes that are  taking place more easily. It strengthens our intuition and promotes good decision making and  Sunstone which brings personal empowerment and fights procrastination. and  it brings out our natural optimism and self confidence as it soothes our fear of change and the accompanying stress it can bring.




Bright blessings for a magickal day!

May’s Theme: This month brings changes into your life. While change sometimes feels scary, it is a necessary thing for our overall growth. Be willing to embrace it and allow it to happen naturally and get ready for better things!




The past has no power over the present moment. – Eckhart Tolle




511: Today the Universe is asking us to focus on receiving and acknowledging the  messages and guidance we receive.  Remember to pay attention because  these messages can come from anywhere and at any time. So staying in the present will benefit you today as this information is directly related to the personal evolution and the changes taking place. If you feel that your communication lines are blocked try giving  yourself a creative project. Did you know that creative pursuits are  a form of meditation that opens the line to divine communication while it promotes clarity? Activities like painting, dancing, gardening, or crafting of any kind will allow your mind to stay present yet relaxed. Not feeling creative? Try yoga. This also promotes clarity and focus as it relaxes the mind. Be open to all forms of guidance, even if it doesn’t seem relevant now store it away for future use.




Archangel Jophiel teaches us to slow down and appreciate the beauty around us. By taking the time to simply breathe and absorb “beauty” it can help open our communication lines by lowering the barriers we have put up. The Ascended Masters, Jesus, Moses, Babaji and Yogananda, all demonstrated the ability to clearly hear the Divine during their time (s) on earth. They can assist in removing any blocks so that you can trust in the guidance and wisdom that you receive. And  and the Roman/Celtic goddess Sulis of the healing waters, tells us “Look to the sacred power of water for healing and comfort. Water has the power to cleanse not only your body but your spirit and energy field as well.”. When our energy field is clear messages come to us more easily.




Our Sacred Stones for today include the following: Iolite, also known as “Poor Man’s Amethyst” is a stone of vision that assists our intuition and aids us in setting things in motion. It helps you stay true to yourself and your path while freeing you from the expectations of others. Moonstone, the stone of new beginnings. This beautiful, watery stone helps to navigate the cycles of change and calms our emotions as it gently promotes creative thinking and creative problem solving and Selenite  which promotes mental clarity and helps to open the direct line to better divine communication.

Today’s Deity: Epona


In Gallo-Roman religion, Epona was a protector of horses, ponies, donkeys, and mules. She was particularly a goddess of fertility, as shown by her attributes of a patera, cornucopia, ears of grain and the presence of foals in some sculptures. She and her horses might also have been leaders of the soul in the after-life ride, with parallels in Rhiannon of the Mabinogion.

EarthSky News: Why can’t I find the Milky Way in May?


If you’re in the Northern Hemisphere this month, searching for the starlit band of the Milky Way during the evening hours, you won’t find it. That’s because, on May evenings, the plane of the Milky Way lies in nearly the same plane as that of our horizon as viewed from the northern part of Earth’s globe. The starlit trail doesn’t cross the dome of your sky after sunset in May. Instead, it lies nearly flat around your horizon on May evenings

Patheos-Pagan: The Spirits of Nature are Terrifying


I am an easily impressed person. A lot of things stir awe in me, and often a healthy amount of fear. Looking over the edge of a high cliff, standing in the vastness of the ocean, watching the waters rise dangerously in the creek near my home; these things make me afraid. So while I adore the spirits of the land and the waters, and I revel in their beauty, I acknowledge that sometimes they are absolutely terrifying.

Inner Journey:


HOW DO YOU PLAY YOUR ROLES?


“What concerns me is not the way things are, but rather the way people think things are.”

— Epicetus


When we are basically unconscious, we live according to social roles. We perform as sons and daughters, mothers and fathers, husbands and wives, employers and employees, as society expects us to.


As we grow in awareness, we gain the freedom to bring our own unique perspectives to these roles. We can express ourselves authentically and creatively, without letting our roles dictate how we should behave.


“Risk! Risk anything! Care no more for the opinion of others, for those voices. Do the hardest thing on earth for you. Act for yourself. Face the truth.”

— Katherine Mansfield

Learning


“I am still learning.”


-Michelangelo (1475-1564)


Michelangelo was a master – no one would dispute that. And yet, he knew there was always room for growth. I think we go around a little too confident in our own skills, and then we get reminded that we still have much to learn. We drive around everywhere, especially here in Southern California, almost on auto-pilot, not really aware of what we’re doing… until one day we get a ticket, and our attention turns to the laws of the road while we’re sitting in traffic school. There are spiritual laws that we know about, too, but are we paying attention to those? We can always learn more.

A Creative Vision: Cat’s Angel Message for May 10, 2019


May’s Theme: This month brings changes into your life. While change sometimes feels scary, it is a necessary thing for our overall growth. Be willing to embrace it and allow it to happen naturally and get ready for better things!




A dream is your creative vision for your life in the future. You must break out of your current comfort zone and become comfortable with the unfamiliar and the unknown. – Denis Waitley




510:  Our message today is all about being true to ourselves and trusting in our own inner wisdom. Sometimes this means that we must step out of our comfort zones to create the life we want. This creation process is more apparent during periods of growth and change so it’s important to pay attention to the messages and guidance that we receive. Remember that this information comes from many sources (the people around us, nature, dreams, intuition or from the universe.) and the signs are visible to those who pay attention. If you feel strongly directed to act then follow your heart and move forward. Likewise if it doesn’t feel right or makes you uncomfortable step back and examine you reaction and feelings before making a decision.  If you are unsure of what to do, or the best way to proceed ask for help. Divine guidance combined with your intuition will never steer you wrong.




Archangel Raziel helps us to access and fine tune both our psychic and intuitive abilities so that we are better able to receive divine guidance. Archangel Sandalphon helps us by delivering  our prayers and requests for assistance to the helpers that are best suited for our current situation.  The Ascended Master Serapis Bey helps us to release our troubles and offers clear guidance and motivation regarding our own self improvement. He also helps us gain spiritual insight and teaches us that loving care is essential to navigating change. And the Greek goddess Artemis teaches us about the power of our own inner wisdom. As goddess of the hunt she knows that focusing on our goals and tracking them to fulfilment = success. She tells us “All the skills and knowledge you need for success lives within you. Your inner wisdom is a powerful thing and you know in your heart when something is good and right.” 




Our Sacred Stones for today include the following: Tiger’s Eye helps us to accomplish our goals by showing us how to recognize and access our inner resources and the promotion of clear intentions. Howlite helps to calm stress, fear and promotes patience as it provides a link to the universal realms and prepares the mind to receive guidance and the gentle energy of  Seraphinite clears the heart chakra and helps to open us to love on all levels. It is also used to review the progress that you have made in life, and shows the changes that we need to make to best helps us on our path.

And leaped and danced as they had ravished been!

And Cupid self about her fluttered all in green.

Inner Journey:


How aware are you?


“The capacity for delight is the gift of paying attention.”

— Julie Cameron


How aware are you of:

– your senses?

– your body — its condition, needs and wisdom?

– your fears?

– your defences – how you hide what you’re really feeling?

– your self talk?

– your beliefs and their power to create your reality?

– your passions?

– your purpose?


Go on a treasure hunt to discover your authentic self and the truth of life in and around you!


“Relative to the level of awareness that is possible for us, our ordinary state of consciousness is as far from a direct experience of reality as sleep is from waking consciousness.”

— Don Richard Riso & Russ Hudson

Nut is a daughter of Shu and Tefnut. Her brother and husband is Geb. She had four or, in some sources, five children: Osiris, Set, Isis, Nephthys, and in some sources Horus. She is considered one of the oldest deities among the Egyptian pantheon, with her origin being found on the creation story of Heliopolis. She was originally the goddess of the nighttime sky, but eventually became referred to as simply the sky goddess. Her headdress was the hieroglyphic of part of her name, a pot, which may also symbolize the uterus. Mostly depicted in nude human form, Nut was also sometimes depicted in the form of a cow whose great body formed the sky and heavens, a sycamore tree, or as a giant sow, suckling many piglets (representing the stars)

Pulling Weeds: Cat’s Angel Message for May 9, 2019


May’s Theme: This month brings changes into your life. While change sometimes feels scary, it is a necessary thing for our overall growth. Be willing to embrace it and allow it to happen naturally and get ready for better things!




The weeds keep multiplying in our garden, which is our mind ruled by fear. Rip them out and call them by name. – Sylvia Browne




59: The personal work that we have been doing recently is helping to make our lives more stable. Through changes and the letting go process we are finding our balance and are gaining a clearer view of our life path. I like to visualize this path as being surrounded by vegetation. There are plants in various stages of growth, flowers, trees and of course…. weeds. The weeds represent things that we need to let go of. A we pull these weeds we are clearing the way for new growth. We may even find some of the thought seeds we had planted and forgotten about or bare spots where we can plant new things. The angels are simply asking us to do some personal gardening today. Set a goal of weed-plant-nurture to get your personal garden into shape!




Archangel Chamuel helps us to get back on track. He is showing us how to build the strong foundations we need to be successful in all areas of life. These foundations are created in part through the letting go process and through the positive changes that we embrace, and the Ascended Master Saint Germain helps find creative solutions during times when we feel unsure of our direction stuck in place. He guides us through the essential space clearing so that we can start the building and growth process. And the Greek goddess Persephone teaches us how to liberate ourselves from the things that are holding us back so that we can forge ahead on a new path. This lady has both an iron will and compassion. She tells us “Don’t be afraid to unearth what lies beneath. By shedding light in dark places we often find treasures we had forgotten. These treasure can form the foundations that you need.”




Our Sacred Stones for today are Rhodonite which helps us to shed old-outdated and harmful thinking and patterns. It helps us to find our confidence and clears away confusion as it helps balance our energy and Unakite which promotes rebirth and gently assists us in finding and releasing old things that are blocking our progress.

Thought For The Day: May 9, 2019 “Rudeness”

			
						

				Posted on   by  			

			
					


				

			
Happy Thursday ,


When people are rude there is always a reason. One popular excuse is “It’s just the way I am”. But there is more to it that that. Rudeness is born from our own insecurities. We may be scared, intimidated or uncomfortable in certain situations or  around certain people. Being rude does not make one interesting or cool and is in fact a weakness. Temper strength with compassion. This quote reminded me of something my always said “If you can’t say something nice, say nothing at all.”

Sky Nelson-Isaacs lucidly explains how we can move into rhythm with the flow of life so that Life can move into harmony with our highest goals. Read this excerpt from the book, “Living In Flow: The Science of Synchronicity and How Your Choices Shape Your World” to discover how we can even enjoy the dance

Today’s Goddess: Spider Woman (Na’ashjéii Asdzáá) 


Name: Spider Woman

Spider Woman is one of the most important deities of traditional Navajo religion. Unlike the Hopi Spider Grandmother, the Navajo Spider Woman is not considered the creator of humans, but she is their constant helper and benefactor. Spider Woman was the adviser of the heroic twins Monster-Slayer and Born-for-Water, taught the people the arts of weaving and agriculture, and appears in many legends and folktales to “save the day,” protect the innocent, and restore harmony to the world.

Patheos-Pagan: The Merry Month of May


Beltane isn’t just one day, at least for me. It’s a season. After a few years of seemingly endless winters, May seems like a definite “put the flag in and stake your claim” declaration of Spring. Feels like a bit of relief, doesn’t it? Plants are blooming, you can really start working on your garden, clothes seem lighter, and the sandals come out. It’s always Beltane in our hearts, we say. But what if it’s not?

Inner Journey:


A FOCUS FOR PARENTS


“Parents: persons who spend half their time worrying how a child will turn out, and the rest of the time wondering when a child will turn in.”

— Ted Cook


One of our responsibilities as parents is to become independent of our children.


Andrew Schneider notes that many of us feel inadequate as parents because we assume we are totally responsible for them, but we are not.


Schneider says, “Their soul is in charge of their lives, and nothing that you do can greatly interfere nor greatly help. Who you are as a being and what you model is the important reality.”


How specifically can we support our children? We want them to feel nurtured and valued. We want to support them in learning how to provide for themselves. And we want to help them build good relationships.


“The most important thing that parents can teach their children is how to get along without them.”

— Frank A. Clark


“There are only two lasting bequests we can hope to give our children. One of these is roots; the other, wings.”

— Hodding Carter

It may seem as if others can add to, or take from, what you have and who you are yet at the end of every day, what you have and who you are is entirely a function of your thoughts, beliefs, and expectations.

Today’s Recipe: Thai Yellow Curry


This curry is by far one of my family’s favourite meals. It’s creamy, savoury, spicy and has a hint of sweetness. This version uses chicken, potatoes and carrots, but you can use any mix of meats and/or vegetables and it’s an absolute delight

Learning


“It is impossible for a man to begin to learn what he thinks he knows.”


-Epictetus (A.D. 55? – 135?)


The most important ingredient in learning is an open mind. We need to approach each experience willing to take in the lesson and see the growth in ourselves. We can begin anytime, we can begin right now!


-Lissa Coffey

Dream a New Dream: Cat’s Angel Message for May 8, 2019


May’s Theme: This month brings changes into your life. While change sometimes feels scary, it is a necessary thing for our overall growth. Be willing to embrace it and allow it to happen naturally and get ready for better things!




You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream. – C. S. Lewis




58:  Today the Universe asking us to re-evaluate our current, overall situation. We have been focusing on letting go of what no longer serves us which also includes  all the things that are money and time related. You may be wondering “WHY” this is important. It’s important because today we are getting a green light from the universe in regards to projects and ventures that we have been considering or putting off. The angels are telling us ” Now is a great time to get started on what makes your spirit sing! We are here to help you achieve your goals!” Ask for guidance or direction and stay open to the messages that you receive. Remember to stay focused on making room for new forms of abundance and allow yourself to be excited for what lies ahead!




Archangel Raziel helps us to manifest prosperity and abundance in all forms. he also teaches us how to let go of outdated beliefs that are holding us back from realizing our full potential. The Ascended Master Solomon helps us to take what we are given and make the most of it. He teaches us how to do things more efficiently as he guides us through difficult situations. Focus and efficiency help us in our quest for personal evolution and help create the necessary stepping stones we need to move ahead.  And The Hindu goddess Kali helps to clear away what we no longer need and replaces it with focus for new beginnings. She says “Do not allow yourself to become bogged down in what you perceive as lack. You are far wealthier than you realize and by getting out of your own way you will see the truth in this. Remember that dreams must be created with focus and intent. I will help you to embrace the courage and motivation that you need to see things through to a successful conclusion.”




Our Sacred Stones for today include the following: Yellow Jasper helps to provide clarity on both mental and emotional levels. It starts us off in a positive direction while helping us to find realistic and workable solutions that help us to attain our goals and  Green Calcite which helps to create harmony and allows rigid beliefs and outdated programming and dissolve. It promotes mental balance, aids in communication and gently helps us to let go of the things that no longer serve us which helps us to draw good things into our lives.




Bright blessings for a magickal day!
