Today’s Message:The First Step
96: How do you know what your life purpose is? Well, that can sometimes be a little tricky. Some people intuitively know, while others are left scratching their heads. For those who already know the universe is sending a gentle reminder that good will and peace start at home. Check your balance there and work on areas that need a little boost For those who remain unsure the universe says to start small, do what you can for one person at a time including yourself. It’s time to lead by example and by sharing your unique light with those around you. Be a peacemaker, a leader, or a role model. Remember that all your needs are being supplied and manifested along the way!
Today’s Spirit Helpers include:
Archangel Chamuel helps us in creating and maintaining strong and loving relationships. While this includes the one we have with ourselves and our own spiritual nature, it helps our relationships with others as well.

She says: ” Personal boundaries are important to your well being. It is sometimes best to walk away. I can help you to step back and give you the self assurance to do what is in your best interest.”
Today’s Sacred Stones include:
The gentle energy of Blue Lace Agate helps our overall communication skills by teaching us to freely express thoughts and feelings in a peaceful manner.

Today’s Message:Trying Something New
93: The Universe is encouraging us to open doors by trying something new today. Maybe a new project, or trying something you’ve never done before. Trying new things will draw new blessings (abundance, relationships, opportunities) into our lives and can even help us in our quests for personal evolution and self exploration. Remember to continue making room for new things by throwing out outdated thoughts, feelings, habits or things that no longer bring you joy ( remember that holding on to things out of habit holds us back). This makes some much needed room for the new blessings headed our way and gives them the room to grow and flourish. These things will help us in our quest to see the big picture and help us to embrace our personal and spiritual journey!
Today’s Spirit Helpers include:
Archangel Raziel can assist us in both embracing our unique divine magic and in the overall manifestation process. He tells us that growth and freedom can be found when we let go of what we have outgrown as well as our limiting self beliefs and fears all of which hold us back from achieving and creating the life we want.
The Himalayan Ascended Master Babaji helps us to achieve the personal and spiritual growth necessary for the letting go process. He assists us in detaching ourselves from both material things and things that no longer serve us. He teaches us that letting go is a form of simplifying your life. It frees your energy so that you can work on what’s important so that new blessings can be received.
Epona is the Celtic goddess of horses, fertility (cornucopia) and dreams(keys). She has ridden into our message today to remind us of the importance of sowing fertile ground to nurture our body, mind and spirit. The keys to this can often be found in our dreams. She says ” As you ride into your evolution remember that you are the key to unlocking the doors that will lead you on your journey. Clues can be found in your dreams and daydreams so don’t gallop past the way markers.”
Today’s Sacred Stones include:
Moss Agate. This gentle stone promotes new beginnings and can help release the blocks that are keeping us from moving forward. It attracts new forms of abundance and teaches us how to channel our energy in new, creative ways. Often referred to as the gardener’s stone Moss Agate helps us connect to nature, the earth, and our own inner garden as well. Carry it with you or wear it during times of new growth.
**Copper is a conductor that moves energy and helps us communicate with the higher realms. It can also increase self esteem and self awareness which are essential to embracing our divine spark and our powers of manifestation.
Sodalite is a stone for the mind, it promotes clear and calm thinking. and activates intuition as it draws down information to the physical level. It dispels confusion and releases outdated thought patterns while creating space for new ideas. It also helps us to look for and find the truth and makes it possible to stand up for our personal beliefs while remaining true to yourself by boosting our confidence and self esteem.

Today’s Message: Look For The Signs
92: This month we will be working to discover who we are and what we want. As we grow mentally and emotionally our wants and needs change. The key lies in our ability to acknowledge and adapt to the changes and new growth that are taking place. It’s like a new project and like all new things requires faith in yourself and in the universe to make things happen. Even if you aren’t exactly sure what your direction is (not knowing is OK), be assured that if something compels you to take action and feels right that you are on the right path. Ask yourself ” Am I where I need/want to be right now?” Be open to what your inner guidance tells you and you will always be headed in the right direction, and don’t forget to look for signs along the way.

This is an important lesson on our path, if it makes your heart sing then it’s the right direction.
The Egyptian goddess Hathor helps us to find the answer to the question “How shall I live my life?” She tells us that every moment gives us opportunities for growth. ” When you are filled with indecision you move away from yourself and your power as a creator. Indecision silences you ability to hear your own inner wisdom. Remember that each moment gives you the opportunity to learn and grow. It is what you were made for!”

The Celtic Tree Month of Vine September 2nd to September 29th.
I dreamed this mortal part of mine Was metamorphosed to a vine, Which, crawling one and every way… from Robert Herrick’s “The Vine”
VINE LORE
The month of Vine is the bridge between the Autumn Equinox and the dark time of the year that begins at Samhain. Muin is an Ogham word that means highest of beauty and strongest of effort and the Irish word Muine means thicket.
Vine symbolizes emotion and sensuality and represents the clinging aspirations of artists and of poets. Vine refers to specifically to the Grape Vines. In mythology, the grape vine is personified in the God Dionysus or Bacchus, who brought the art of wine making to mankind. Carvings of this god show him with an ivy wreath upon his head and his body covered with grapes and leaves. As such he resembles the GreenMan of the celtic traditions. In Pagan/Wiccan traditions the five pointed leaves are sacred to the Goddess as is the spiral growing pattern of thevines themselves.
OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA
PLANT INFORMATION
This is not a tree but more like a shrub and is probably the oldest cultivated plant in the world. It is a long lived plant and scientists have found fossilized grape leaves that date back 40 million years! These vines have large lobed leaves and produce small whitish flowers, that in turn produce grapes. Vine can grow up to 115 feet in length and live to a recorded life span of 600 years. The stem of very old grape vines have been know to produce “planks” 15 inches wide when cut. This vine has no uses other than wine making.
In healing, vine is known for it’s restorative and regenerative powers. It can help with fever, the leaves and seeds were used to stop hemmoraging, bleeding and inflamation. Grapes are rich in iron, and vitamins and provide an excellent source of instant energy. They are also a laxative and a diuretic. Blackberries were used by the ancient Greeks to treat gout. In England the leaves were used to treat burns while berries were used to treat bug bites, loose teeth and sore throats. The bark and roots are known for their astringent properties and are still used today.
VINE IN MAGICK
Vine is female and is ruled by the moon. It can be used to promote prosperity, fertility, mental powers and can be used in garden magick. Ritual uses include celebrations, grounding and faery magick. Use the leaves of this plant to enhance your own goals and ambitions. Vine is also one of the nine sacred woods burned at Beltane as a symbol of joy.
Vines properties are as follows:
Thistle: Protection, strength, exorcism, hex breaking Blueberry: Spirituality, protection and dream magick Grape: Garden magick fertility, prosperity/money and binding Blackberry: Protection, healing and properity
To dream of grapes/blackberries is a sign of abundance, if the leaves are green then success is coming your way and if you are harvesting the berries your income will be a good one. To dream of walking through a vinyard fortells of prosperity.
Here is a recipe for Vine Moon Tea (good for use in Earth magic, sex magic, overcoming difficulties): 1 part blackberry 1 part dandelion splash of currant wine or Grape juice pinch of hibiscus (dutchie.org)
VINE PEOPLE
Vine people have high personal standards and tend to be natural socializers and well organized. They also have well developed insticts and an eye for detail however this can become an issue as they can be highly self critical. They are also secretly romantic and sensitive. Vine people have a dual personality and can be happy one minute and down the next. It is important for Vine people to learn the importance of balance between giving and receiving.
To choose Vine as a magickal name can indicate that you are a climber and have great potential. You are willing to work hard to achieve what you want.

“Your fears are not walls, but hurdles. Courage is not the absence of fear, but the conquering of it.” — Dan Millman
How do we conquer fear? With action. Millman says that action is the ONLY way to move through fear.
Fear aims to stop us in our tracks. When we step forward anyway, our anxiety eases. We begin to pay attention to what’s actually going on instead of being trapped in fearful speculation. When we’ve done it once, we can do it again. And again. And again.
“Many of our fears are tissue-paper-thin, and a single courageous step would carry us clear through them.” — Brendan Francis

Today’s Tarot: Wednesday
The Tower If any problems arise today, they will probably come out of being careless about something simple and normally no trouble at all. Carelessness is the chief threat to having things go smoothly. Even if only small things are lost, broken, or need to be redone, it can make tomorrow even more of a mess than today might be. Pay attention to details, take your time and do your best.
Today’s Tarot; Thursday
The Magician: It may be hard to be serious and stick to those dull but crucial tasks that keep the day running smoothly. Be systematic, cheerful, and don’t let it show if you feel undervalued or underappreciated. Save your sharp wit and cleverness for another time and place. Time spent with younger people or children can lift your spirits and keep things in perspective for you.

Today’s Message:Personal Quiet Time
830: Today is a good time for a little meditation and self-care and the Universe is asking you to hold a little light and simply be at ease. Enjoy the beauty of nature or soothing music and fill your mind with your favorite energizing, soothing or healing color. These are different for everyone, personally, I like watery blue-green or aquas and soft pinks, so whatever color speaks to you today just enjoy it! Personal quiet time plays an essential role in your emotional and spiritual well being. Use that quiet place to relax and reset. Too often we forget or put off doing something just for ourselves so a bubble bath for the soul is always a good thing to indulge in!
Today’s Spirit Helpers include:
Archangel Raphael teaches us that it is through our spiritual journey that we can heal our selves and our lives and regain our self confidence and faith. This opens our spiritual eyes so that we may see what we have and how blessed we truly are as it teaches us how to make room for new things through the clearing out process. He helps to clear the way so that we can achieve balance by removing the blocks associated with giving and receiving by promoting flexibility in thinking and attitude.
The Ascended Master Melchizedek helps keep our energy balanced and flowing. This is essential for using our gifts and understanding the information we receive. He can also help to diffuse unpleasant situations that can arise as we go through change and transformation. Since he helps us heal through color, pay attention to the colors that draw you or feel relevant.
The Celtic goddess Nematona teaches us that healing can be found through nature as she helps us replenish our energy. She says, ” I am the spirit of the sacred grove. I invite you to worship in my temple and feel the heartbeat of nature. This communion can heal a weary and battered soul and replenish your spirit with hope and divine peace.”
Today’s Sacred Stones include:
Pink Banded Agate: This stone is a member of the Botswana Agate family. It teaches us how to look at our lives and see the big picture, as it helps us to use our creative problem solving skills through focus and attention to detail. it is a good stone for women who want to embrace a more feminine attitude by drawing their nurturing side forward. Pink Banded Agate also helps us to feel good about ourselves and is said to help ease stress and anxiety.
Chalcedony that brings mind, body, spirit and emotions into harmony by calming fear, anger or self doubt. It also promotes good feeling towards self and others.
Ulexite (TV stone). This clear stone helps to burn away mental fog and promotes clarity of vision and thinking. It can be used during meditation and to promote relaxation.

Today’s Message:You Are Blessed
829: Today we are continuing to make room for new opportunities and abundance. Through the releasing of things that are no longer relevant, not in our best interest or no longer bring us joy and peace we are giving ourselves some needed pre-fall cleaning. If you’ve been doing the work you may feel peaceful, centered and light in spirit. This inner “freedom'” helps to draw the good things that will help us along our path and will assist the work coming up in September. The angels are sending us a strong message today. ” Have faith in the knowledge that your needs are being met and that you and your loved ones are being cared for. By surrounding yourself with positive people and energy you will be opening the doors to the blessings that we are sending your way!”

Archangel Uriel helps us to let go of the past and invite essential new growth into our lives. He helps us to find harmony in the things going on around us and reminds us that letting go is essential for change and transformation to take place. Today is a good day to simply touch base with him, ask for help if needed or simply express gratitude for the blessings taking place in your life.
The Ascended Master Vywamus teaches us that change can be an opportunity to heal. He encourages us to continuously and consciously seek inspiration through the discovery and rediscovery of our own natural abilities and talents. If something is holding you back let it go and continue forward.
The Roman Goddess Vesta who oversees hearth and home. She helps us to clear space (both in our physical home and our inner home) to make room for new things and teaches us the value of letting go of what we no longer need. ” If something does not make your heart sing put it where it belongs or set it free. This will clear your inner and outer sacred space. Then open the doors and invite the new blessings inside.”
Today’s Sacred Stones include:
Larimar helps to remove self-imposed barriers that may be keeping us from accepting our personal power and stops self-sabotaging behavior by bringing out the best in us. It helps us to see the things that we have to be grateful for and the tiny miracles that we take for granted. This sky blue stone also helps to ease our obsession for material things and shows us how to put things into perspective so that you manifest what you really need. It shows us how to go with the flow.
Rose Quartz brings us inner peace and harmony which is essential to increasing our faith. The energy of this stone is very soothing and can help calm frazzled nerves. It helps to promote the softer, move loving view that we need to embrace gratitude, it soothes and clears the emotions and fills us with loving compassion. It works with the heart chakra to gently wash away negative feelings that we harbor against ourselves and lifts the emotions to promote joy and peace. It opens our heart and shows us the love in relationships and situations, which helps us find a balancing point Use this gentle stone to shower yourself with loving care and to send healing to those little places that most need it.
Try placing Amethyst and Quartz Crystal clusters throughout your home to promote positive energy and to promote a peaceful and relaxed atmosphere.

“Employ the power of positive quitting. Most of us view quitting as something negative, but it’s not. ‘Winners never quit,’ we’re told, when, in reality, winners quit all the time: choosing to stop doing things that aren’t creating the results they desire. When you quit all the things that aren’t working for you, when you quit tolerating all the negative things that hold you back, you’ll create a positive ‘charge’ in your life as well as create the space in your life for more positive experiences.” — Jim Allen
“I like thinking of possibilities. At any time, an entirely new possibility is liable to come along and spin you off in an entirely new direction. The trick, I’ve learned, is to be awake to the moment.” — Doug Hall
“Persons and societies do not submit passively to surroundings and events. They make choices as to the places where they live and the activities in which they engage — choices based on what they want to be, to do and to become. Furthermore, persons and societies often change their goals and ways; they can even retrace their steps and start in a new direction if they believe they are on a wrong course. Thus, whereas animal life is prisoner of biological evolution which is essentially irreversible, human life has the wonderful freedom of social evolution which is rapidly reversible and creative. Wherever human beings are concerned, trend is not destiny.” — Rene Dubos

Today’s Recipe: Air Fryer Hearts of Palm Sticks
I’d never seen a recipe for air fryer hearts of palm sticks but I’d seen artichoke hearts and mozzarella sticks fried in the air fryer, so I thought…why not? What a pleasant surprise! They take on the look of mozzarella sticks but have a tangy, meaty texture in the center. I serve them with marinara sauce for dipping, and ranch salad dressing would also be great.

Today’s Tarot: Monday
The Hermit: It might be a busy day, but try to make some time for yourself. Any time you spend meditating or settling your mind will be time well spent. It doesn’t have to be spent sitting around and being idle all day. Staring pensively into that cup of tea for a few moments can be equally beneficial. Calm your mind, and your heart, and make it an at-peace day.
Today’s Tarot; Tuesday
Strength: Anger could raise its ugly little head today, but you have things under control. Don’t engage, if possible, and tactfully deflect the worst of whatever misunderstanding caused the outbreak. If it’s repressed anger, there may never be any loud or angry words. You can smooth any ruffled feathers simply by standing up and not being intimidated or rushed into any action or opinion. Be at your best today.
