Just Believe:  Cat’s Angel Message for August 13, 2020

 

August Theme: Positive focus and creative solutions help to draw both prosperity and abundance this month. You are a powerful creator and all that you need is within your grasp!



Believe in the best and welcome what life has to offer. ~Cat




813:  It’s a good day to relax and just be. The Ascended Masters (AM’s) are chilling with us today and their message is simple, ” The Universe supports you in all that you do and all your needs are being met. Trust in the guidance that you receive and allow the blessings to unfold.” Gentle reminders like this are quite often what we need to initiate a little downtime. Remember that your ground, clear and center work is a good starting point for relaxation, then do whatever makes you feel chill or brings you peace. There are no right or wrong answers so allow yourself time to reset. Remember that the things that you give attention to through your focus, your words, your thoughts, and your actions are what you will manifest. It’s all about positives and negatives, so choose the best and let the rest…. rest.




Today’s Spirit Helpers include:


 


The Ascended Master Paramahansa Yogananda teaches us that during times of stress or loss of focus peace can be found through meditation. Remember that meditation can be as simple as taking several deep breaths and centering yourself. Use this as your personal reset button.


 


The Ascended Master Vywamus encourages us to continuously and consciously seek inspiration through the discovery and rediscovery of our own natural abilities and talents. He teaches us that healing can be found in change. If something is holding you back he can teach you how to let it go or let it be so you can continue moving forward.


 


The Ascended Master Maitreya (Laughing Buddha) helps us to find peace and harmony through laughter, this gives us a clear perspective and keeps our energy flowing. He tells us that laughter is sacred and when the heart is alive with joy we are connected to the Infinite and filled with Nirvana-essence. Center your mind with the intent of enjoying yourself and you will find yourself centered in the moment. Enjoy what life has to offer and enjoy the process!




Our Sacred Stones for today include:


Chalcedony brings the mind, body, spirit, and emotions into harmony by calming fear, anger, or self-doubt. It also promotes good feelings towards self and others.


 


Dioptase which helps us to create a more balanced life while we work toward achieving our personal goals. It also teaches us to see things with joy and the best in every action.


 


Softly colored Lepidolite helps us by filtering away distractions and obsessive thinking. It soothes and heals stress and reminds us to just breathe.




Blessings for a magickal day! Cat

Daily Good: Creating Welcoming Space


“Hospitality means creating welcoming space for the other. Henri J. Nouwen notes that the Dutch word for hospitality, gastvrijheid, means ‘the freedom of the guest.’ It entails creating not just physical room but emotional spaciousness where the stranger can enter and be himself or herself, where the stranger can become ally instead of threat, friend instead of enemy.” In a time when it is more crucial than ever for humanity to revisit its relationship to strangers, this passage from Sr. Marilyn Lacey shines like a beacon.

You can make today memorable purely by the strength of your unfailing hope for all things to work out for the best. No matter how muddled the events of the day, how confused or how many mixed messages people give you, especially at work, your innate hopeful spirit will cut through most of the mist and give you good results. Look forward to many satisfying encounters, however little or much gets done.

MNN: 11 things you didn’t know about opossums

There’s a lot to admire about these quirky critters.


Pity the poor opossum. The oft-maligned marsupial definitely suffers from an image problem — it is frequently perceived more as a giant, dirty, scavenging rat rather than a cute creature of the wild. But whether you love them or hate them, North America’s only marsupial has a set of unique characteristics that might transform aversion into affection.

Wise Woman Herbal: The Rhythms of Life

by Ann Marie Fryer Wiboltt


Today I went for a walk in my garden, which is nestled among the fields and woods with late summer flowers. It was humid and hot. The leaves of the near by maple trees had begun to turn yellow and orange, one by one spiraling to the ground. I felt the warmth of the air touching my skin and the wet, flexible soil below my feet. With my awareness I began to sense life itself. I sensed inwardly how the earth breathes and changes. I entered into the blue of the sky; let it permeate my whole being and felt the reverence that embraces the earth. I was filled with joy and reverence of just being.

EarthSky News: Moon to sweep by Jupiter July 12 to 14


On the evenings of July 12, 13 and 14, 2019, watch for the bright waxing gibbous moon to swing by the giant planet Jupiter. Fortunately, the king planet is so bright that this world can easily withstand the lunar glare. After all, Jupiter is the 4th-brightest light in the heavens, after the sun, moon and planet Venus. Venus is a morning object, virtually lost in the sun’s glare now, so there’s no way to mistake Venus for Jupiter in the July evening sky.

Patheos-Pagan: The Most Dreaded Cards in the Tarot & How To Embrace Them


It’s time for your annual reading or perhaps, you are having a crisis and need some insight… you head to your favorite reader and as the cards are slowly being turned over…one by one… your anticipation gets carried away.

Inner Journey:


A FOCUS ON YOU OR ME?


“Our deepest need is for the joy that comes with loving and being loved, with knowing we are of genuine use to others.”

— Eknath Easwaran


Are you more self-conscious or other-conscious?


Watch your motives for the day. Are they generally about you (your own desires and needs) or are they about others and their needs? There are no right and wrong answers here.


We must guard, though, that we aren’t using service to others as a means to get our own ego needs met. If we are, we would be wise to meet our own needs first so our interactions with others are not primarily self- serving.


“We are able to be of service to those who suffer only to the extent that we have been able to transform fear in our own lives.”

— Robert Sardello

Uncertainty


“The quest for certainty blocks the search for meaning. Uncertainty is the very condition to impel man to unfold his powers.”

-Erich Fromm


I think this is kind of like “necessity is the mother of invention.” What makes us learn and grow and propels us forward is uncertainty. If everything were certain we would get lazy pretty quick- Instead we are constantly challenged to find solutions and better our conditions.

Spiritual Unite: The 11 Types of Lightworkers Which One Are You?


While you may feel called to serve and care for those around you, the term Lightworker may be one you hesitate to fully connect with. This term may bring to mind overly new age individuals, preaching their views of spirituality to large audiences, saving large crowds of people with a single inspirational talk.

MBG: Weekly Horoscope: Time For All Of Us To Unleash Our Inner Activists

On Monday, Mars moves into Aquarius and calls on us to unite in the name of progress and idealism.


“A house divided cannot stand,” Abraham Lincoln reminded us nearly 160 years ago. This Monday, September 10, heroic Mars returns to the 16th president’s sign, making the call to “come together” louder and more urgent.

Daily Good: You Are Me and I Am You


The idea that we are one unified whole on this planet is a growing awareness across the globe. This awareness is made palpable and even aided by one of the positive aspects of the internet; that is, the ability to share events, feelings and consciousness at the same time on a worldwide level. Pierre Pradervand is a writer and social justice activist who is dedicated to helping others live in this truth that we are all connected. Though we may feel overwhelmed by the difficulties in the world, he wants to help people know that when we work together, we can create a more loving and just society. By creating love in our own lives, we can thereby affect the world on a universal scale. As Pradervand says in this article, “Every single progress we make, we make for the whole world – because you are me and I am you.”

Tetrakyts: Life Goals – Why You Need Them in Order to Be Happy and How to Find Yours

I don’t know about you, but I’m under the impression that a lot of people around me are quite unhappy. My wife and I are far from rich and we have to face difficulties from time to time. But still, we consider ourselves happy and we are always under the impression that the future is bright for us and our future children.

EarthSky News: Will you catch the young moon on September 10?


For some sky watchers, it’s great sport to try to catch a young moon that might – or might not – fleetingly show itself as a pale, skinny crescent in the western evening twilight. The chances of catching the young moon after sunset on September 10, 2018, vary greatly around the globe.

Patheos-Pagan: Fluffy Bunny Witchcraft is Good


Fluffy bunny Witchcraft is a good thing. I’m of the mindset that anything that brings someone to Witchcraft or Paganism is great. The more fluffy bunny practices are appealing to folks that are newer to the path, who may not have had a chance to try out many things or meet other people. And even if someone has been practicing Witchcraft for years, why should anyone care how they practice?

Inner Journey: 


VALUE JUST BEING


“To do great work a man must be very idle as well as very industrious.”

— Samuel Butler


Many of us have been taught to believe that we are valued for what we do, not just for who we are. ‘Doing’ is important, but to keep life in balance, we also need time to just ‘be.’


Henry David Thoreau expressed this so well in Walden Pond:


“There were times when I could not afford to sacrifice the bloom of the present moment to any work, whether of the head or hand.


“Sometimes, on a summer morning, I sat in my sunny doorway from sunrise till noon, rapt in a revery, amidst the pines and hickories and sumacs, in undisturbed solitude and stillness, while the birds sang around or flitted noiseless through the house, until by the sun falling in at my west window, or the noise of some traveller’s wagon on the distant highway, I was reminded of the lapse of time.


“I grew in those seasons like corn in the night, and they were far better than any work of the hands would have been.”

A Note from the Universe


What if you’re already doing everything right, even though you’re not sure?


And the surprises along the way have only sped things up, even though it felt like they slowed you down?


And all that you want is now barreling toward you, even though you can’t see it?


And when it arrives it’ll exceed your every expectation, even though your dreams were huge?


Wouldn’t you be making some really weird noises about now? Whoohoo’ing, howling… maybe even whoohoo-howl-barking?


Well?

Awareness


“Sometimes I think we’re all tightrope walkers suspended on a wire two thousand feet in the air, and so long as we never look down we’re okay, but some of us lose momentum and look down for a second and are never quite the same again: we know.”


-Dorothy Gilman, The Tightrope Walker, 1979


We are always growing and evolving, and we can never go back to where we were once we’ve grown past it. We’ve glimpsed the realm of spirit, we know the peace and joy in our hearts, and we want more of it, every day. It is ours! To experience, and to express… be aware of this wondrous gift!
