Maintaining Our Course: Cat’s Angel Message for January 17, 2025
The year 2025 is deemed a Universal Year, with the single digit 9 (2+0+2+5=9) representing the end of a cycle. This suggests that we should mindfully release things and allow relationships, ventures, jobs, habits, etc., to reach their natural conclusion. Rather than forcing outcomes, we should let them unfold naturally, surrounding them positive energy and then releasing them. It is time to make room for new beginnings.
January Crystals:Garnet: Strength and protection. Rose Quartz: Creativity and imagination. Amethyst: Problem solving and decision making.

Today’s Message:Maintaining Our Course
117: We are architects of our own destiny and the creators our own reality. Although this may sound cliché, it is the truth, and the Universe is encouraging us to remain on our path. Maintain your course and identify the things that are important to you and make a conscious decision to focus on them. Simplify matters and make adjustments as needed to stay on track. Our spiritual guides understand that we feel discouraged when results are not immediate. Therefore, they remind us to have faith in ourselves and in the loving energy of the Divine. Wheels are turning behind the scenes, and things are falling into place.
Today’s Spirit Helpers include:
Archangel Chamuel assists us with relationships, including the ones we have with ourselves and our spiritual nature. He helps us build a strong foundation for our personal evolution. Archangel Chamuel also aids finding what is lost. If you feel you have strayed from your path, lost faith, or are struggling to find your way back, he can help you find your way.
The Ascended Master Vywamus encourages to consciously seek inspiration through the discovery and rediscovery of our own natural abilities and talents. He teaches that healing can be found in change. If something is holding you back, he can teach you how to let go or let it be so you can continue moving forward.
The Greek goddess Persephone instructs us on the balance between light and dark, emphasizing the significance of the shadows to what is lost or forgotten. Persephone tells us “Don’t be afraid to unearth what lies beneath or has been hidden. By shedding light in dark or weedy places you often find treasures that you had forgotten or set aside. These treasures can form the foundations that you need to navigate your path in life.”
Today’s Sacred Stones include:
Aquamarine balances emotions that can become frayed during changes and new cycles. It helps us to move forward and navigate the ebb and flow of life. This gemstone also shields the aura, aligns the chakras, and promotes communication from the higher realms.
Sandstone clears the mind of distractions and enhances overall creativity. It helps find the truth in people and situations, which is essential for making sound decisions.
Unakite, a green and pink stone, assists in revealing the blocks we have created within ourselves and shows us how to remove them. It aids in and gaining clarity from the present moment and works with both the base and heart chakras.
Blessings for a magickal day! Cat

Did you feel the energy shift on April 30? The annual Sun/Uranus conjunction happened on that date and this one was turbo charged. It brought all of the weird, tough, challenging, topsy turvy energy of April to a close on a high vibe note, just as we turn a corner and move into May.

A practice for accessing the power of liminal dreaming
Liminal dreaming is a remarkable mind state, one you can channel for creativity or problem solving, use as a form of metacognition to explore your thought processes, or simply play with as a form of consciousness exploration.
Sea spiders are long-legged marine arthropods that inhabit oceans around the world, from the frigid waters of the Southern Ocean to the balmy Caribbean.
Vega is a lovely star to come to know. When I was first learning the night sky, more than 40 years ago, I spent hours, days, weeks, months poring over charts and books. So I sometimes came to know the names and whereabouts of certain stars before seeing them in the night sky.
Astringents are used to firm and tone the skin. They constrict the pores and create a protective layer of firm tissue to fight against natural elements. However, some astringents can be harsh due to their alcohol content, thus, drying the skin. So why not create your own astringent at home?
Today’s recipe uses non-drying ingredients — witch hazel, lemon juice and, don’t be surprised – tea!
This ritual was written by our lovely kitchen Witch ritual team, huge thanks to Ness, Sue, Josh, Gwyneth and Heather for allowing me to share it here. It is written for a group but could easily be adapted for solitary use.

Inner Journey: FIND PEACE INSIDE
“All spiritual disciplines are done with a view to still the mind. The perfectly still mind is universal spirit.” — Swami Ramdas
Getting into the habit of meditating, praying and/or resting daily helps us pull back from our preoccupation with the material world. In silence and solitude, we have an opportunity to pay attention to what’s happening inside rather than outside.
When we do this consistently, we learn to relax and to quiet and detach from our mental chatter and our turbulent emotions. As we begin to witness ourselves in personality, we also begin to experience our soul.
“Meditation may require a lifetime to master, but it will have been a lifetime well spent.” If you want to judge your progress, ask yourself these questions: Am I more loving? Is my judgment sounder? Do I have more energy? Can my mind remain calm under provocation? Am I free from the conditioning of anger, fear, and greed? Spiritual awareness reveals itself as eloquently in character development and selfless action as in mystical states.” — Eknath Easwaran

A Note from the Universe
Often, simply showing up is enough.
Because the friends, abundance, and health you now dream of possessing have long been in place.
Because the coincidences, surprises, and serendipities that will transform your life already lie in wait for your passing.
And because little else could speak louder of your belief in success than physically putting yourself in a position to receive.
It’s fun to stay at the YMCA

Daily Wisdom May 6, 2021
Philosophy
“As a human being, you have no choice about the fact that you need a philosophy. Your only choice is whether you define your philosophy by a conscious, rational, disciplined process of thought and scrupulously logical deliberation – or let your subconscious accumulate a junk heap of unwarranted conclusions, false generalizations, undefined contradictions, undigested slogans, unidentified wishes, doubts and fears, thrown together by chance, but integrated by your subconscious into a kind of mongrel philosophy and fused into a single, solid weight: self-doubt, like a ball and chain in the place where your mind’s wings should have grown.”
-Ayn Rand, 1982
One of the really cool things about living this life is that we have so much self-responsibility. We think our own thoughts, we make our own philosophy, we live our own life the way we choose to live it. Be aware, think well, live well

Daily Tarot: Temperance
Pace yourself today and get more done than you might imagine as the day begins. It’s all right to be tired from time to time. It doesn’t have to cripple all your plans for the day. Maintain a sensible balance, remember to eat healthy, take a short break once and a while, and don’t aim too high. There’s plenty of work to be done that you can handle with ease.

Faith is a companion to hope. ~Cat

321: We are taking a look at our faith today. While it’s important to have faith in the Divine Source it’s just as important to have faith in yourself. This can also be seen as as an extension of yesterday’s theme of hope and new beginnings. By having faith in ourselves we are effectively acknowledging our readiness to embrace these new beginnings and the hope we have for better things to come. We can also gain valuable insight on a personal level as we gain a better understanding of our own strengths and weaknesses. The key is to maintain a balance of faith between yourself and the Divine. Remember that you are a powerful creator and that the Universe is on your side and always ready to assist you!
Today’s Spirit Helpers include:
Archangel Chamuel helps us to recover things we have lost. while he usually works with lost items he can also help when we feel out of balance by showing us the reason behind it. He also assists us as we navigate our path by helping us to find the direction and guidance that needed to move forward on this journey of self discovery. If you feel like you have wandered off your path and are having trouble finding your way back he can help you get your bearings.
The Ascended Master Kuthumi helps us to navigate the distractions of everyday life. He encourages us to focus on what’s important right now and to stop fighting the things that we have no control over, which blocks our problem solving and creative flow. Things flow easier when we are not struggling against the “what if’s and maybes.
The Hindu goddess White Tara embodies the beauty of Divine love and shows us the path to strengthening or restoring our faith. She says: “Come and sit beside me. I will help ease the worry in your heart and teach you how to replace it with gratitude and joy. This is where faith dwells and we must only open the doors and invite it forward.”
Today’s Sacred Stones include:
Azurite increases our ability to receive spiritual guidance and helps us to see through illusions and clears the mind so that we can see our path clearly. It helps to develop our intuitive skills as it expands the mind to promote clear thinking, understanding and new perspectives.
Labradorite, called “The Bringer of Light” It is both protective and mystical. Turn the stone in your hands and see the flashes of color and light. They create a connection and helps to raise the consciousness to the energies of the Universe. Labradorite is also used to relieve fear and insecurity caused by old hurts and disappointments. It also strengthens our faith as it removes the projections of others that are holding us back.
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.
Blessings for a magickal day! Cat
I invite you to share my work as long as no changes are made and to check out my websites:
Winter will not last forever. Look for the first signs that the earth is stirring and making ready for new life, new beginnings. Find hope in these things and let it fill your heart and spirit!
The new year is just getting started but many of us are still struggling with the crappy leftovers from last year. It truly is going to be okay, just hold on. Inside you is the spark of HOPE. It is there I assure you, even though you may have to dig it out and dust it off. Show your spark to others. Show them that is okay to bring theirs out into the open too. This could start a movement! A movement of HOPE… wouldn’t that be a beautiful sight? You’ve totally GOT this!
As we prepare to say goodbye to the old year we are given a reminder about hope. Hope is like a spark that lives within us and is something that we must nurture to fully appreciate. The last year has been crazy, scary and often dark but we have persevered and made it through because we have hope that things will get better. It will happen a little at time. Find your “hope spark” and embrace it. Feed it each day with optimistic intentions and loving kindness. Never give up… you’ve totally got this!
Sunrise and sunset are magical times. With the sunrise we are given a new day and a new beginning. At sunset we are reminded of the magic that surrounds us and that there will be more magic tomorrow. Embrace the things that bring you hope, joy and optimism. Look for them in the simple things found in Mother Natures garden.
Faith and Hope:Cat’s Angel Message for September 14, 2020
September’s Theme: “What Do I Want?” This is a question that we often ask ourselves. So as we head into Autumn and the time of introspection ask yourself that very question.

“Ask for what you need and hold faith and hope close to your heart.” ~Cat

914: Like any good friend the Universe and it’s helpers are always here to assist us. We can ask any questions and make any request. This starts the ball rolling and when we do our part by adding our energy to that of our divine friends things begin to happen. The key is in remembering that the wheels are always turning and the assistance we need is always there. Today we are being asked to maintain a positive focus on our goals and to have faith particularly in the areas that are most important to us and that we are currently working on. Remember to have patience as sometimes things don’t move as quickly as we would like. Divine Right Timing always plays a part and when we are ready on all levels things will naturally fall into place. Today the Universe is saying, “Ask for what you need and hold faith and hope close to your heart.Look for my divine clues in the smallest gifts.”

Archangel Jeremiel helps us to make positive life choices. He understands that it’s hard for us to let go of people and situations even though they are holding us back or causing us unintended stress, drama or harm.

Ask him to help you see your path clearly and to assist you in taking the necessary steps to embrace your future.
The Ascended Master Saint Germain helps us to persevere in our personal quests and provides us with courage and direction. He teaches us how to clear the way and free our minds from worry so that we can work on more important things and shows us the way to comfortably interact with people and situations that can help us achieve our goals.
The Yoruban Goddess Oya embodies the winds of change. She tells us, ” Allow the winds of change to flow through your being. In their wake they will leave new energy seeds for you to plant. Use these seeds to help you on your journey. Remember child, that change must be embraced, not ignored or simply put up with. Allow these changes to inspire and encourage you to transcend your self imposed limitations.”

It promotes balance and clears and re-energizes the chakras.

Hope is a wonderful thing and is the color of sunshine. It can bring us joy, happiness, and even feelings of contentment. Its tiny spark glows from within and it is yours to care for. Nurture it, tend it with love and let it light your way when things are dark. By choosing to embrace hope we are choosing to walk our path with faith and confidence.
Sunflowers are happy flowers. They are bright and cheerful and apparently, they are smart too. The flower heads follow the sun as it travels across the sky. Even on cloudy days, they look for the light turning their faces to catch even the faintest glimmer. To me, they symbolize hope and optimism and even a bit of faith. Embrace the sunflower spirit today. remember that the light is always there. Keep looking for it and follow it, have faith in it, and be guided by it!
