Today’s Message:Humanitarian Acts
29: In some respects we all share a very similar life purpose in that we all have something that we can share with others in need. These Humanitarian acts can complex or as simple as a smile or hug, kind or encouraging words or just being a good listener. Today the Universe is reminding us that we are all qualified to do these small and simple things. Make time today to be there for someone else. Embrace self confidence and listen to your heart as it guides you on this path of service. If it resonates with your spirit you are on the right path. In helping others we often find that we are helping ourselves as well and small acts of compassion and kindness can make a big difference.
Today’s Spirit Helpers include:
Archangel Zadkiel teaches us that true compassion and healing lie in our ability to forgive ourselves and others. This is especially helpful when we endeavor to lead by example. It is through forgiveness that we gain insight into what assistance will be beneficial to self and others.

She surrounds us with her gentle energy and helps to fill our hearts with love as she imparts feelings of peace and safety as she gently heals the dark, hidden places within while showing us the path that leads to compassion and forgiveness which are essential to healing ourselves and helping others.
The Celtic Goddess Aeracura shows us the way to expand and share our loving energy. She tells us, ” Playfulness and a carefree spirit are the heart of true abundance. By sharing of yourselves it creates an energy that spreads and grows.”

Inspirational Apatite helps us to be of service by encouraging us to be more open and at ease in social situations as it promotes a humanitarian attitude.
Chalcedony brings mind, body, spirit, and emotions into harmony by calming fear, anger or self doubt. It also promotes good feelings towards self and others.

The world would be a much better place if the simplest acts of kindness were not so rare; if everyone would find more ways to spread positivity and joy—and who doesn’t need more of that in their life with the world in its current state?
The list I created below is just some examples of the most basic form of human decency that so many forget to do.

EarthSky News: See the Unicorn on dark January nights
Tonight, treat yourself to a visit with a mythical beast, the constellation Monoceros the Unicorn. It’s well placed for viewing in the January evening sky, but you’ll need a very dark sky to see it. Monoceros will be out nearly all night long. It’ll be higher up and easier to see in the later evening hour.
“Every moment of your life is infinitely creative and the universe is endlessly bountiful. Just put forth a clear enough request, and everything your heart desires must come to you.” — Shakti Gawain
We hold the power to create whatever we desire. Our ability to manifest the changes we desire depends on the depth and passion of our beliefs and on the focus of our attention.
With this understanding, we, as individuals and as society, can design a whole new future for ourselves. Our challenge is to break free of society’s world view, to truly empower our imaginations to create brand new realities. It brings a whole new meaning to ‘vision.’
What do you passionately desire for your own life? For the planet?
“By believing passionately in something that still does not exist, we create it. The non-existent is whatever we have not sufficiently desired.” — Nikos Kazantzakis

Speech “Think all you speak, but speak not all you think. Thoughts are your own; your words are so no more.”
-Patrick Delany (1686-1768)
Our words come from us, and go out into the world. Once they are said, we can’t take them back. Remember when we were little, our mother’s used to say: “If you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything at all.” If we speak impulsively, we may come to regret it. Our words carry weight, and when we think about what we are going to say, we can make better choices about how to say it so that it is received in the best possible light.

Daily Tarot: The World
Take your place in the World and be in your element all day long. Your practical mind and easy nature let you cruise through the regular maze that is daily life. If anything out of the ordinary arises, you’ll know instinctively how to approach it and resolve things to your satisfaction. Today may not be easy or effortless but it will be rich in success and approval – from yourself and probably others as well.

The Desert Path: The dusty ramblings of a desert pagan. AND Cat’s Treasure Trove …. an eclectic collection of jewelry & gifts! https://thedesertpath.com
We all want to see world peace and healing. But it won’t happen overnight. All of us have a role to play in making things better. While some are bound to create big things the truth is that most of us can help by doing the small ones. Speak the truth. Speak with compassion. Do good where you can and be kind. Small, simple things matter and the more small, simple things we do the greater the effect and impact.
Small acts of kindness are important. Kind words, acts of compassion, a phone call, your time, a smile, a helping hand. We are all capable of these things every day and maybe right most of all. We are all in this together and through kindness, we can make a difference.
How do you face the world? Do you greet it with a smile or is your “resting bitch face” always in place”? This phrase has become the expression de jour in the last several years and is actually a mild form of rudeness that has become “acceptable.” A smile is a gift that takes mere seconds to share with someone. Smiles make you feel good and can release happy endorphins in your brain. A smile makes others feel good too. Share this free gift with those around you and change someone’s day.
Good Morning Beautiful Souls, grab a cup of your favorite morning brew and start things off with “Today’s Inspirations”. I hope you find something here that will make you feel good or help you on your path today.
Blessings, Cat

Climate change is destroying many places we love points out Trebbe Johnson, and while some of us turn away from admitting this, others are filled with sorrow. But here’s what’s most difficult: “Many of us are simply afraid that if we allow ourselves to wade, even for a moment, into the feelings of sadness for the living world that lap at the edge of our consciousness, we will find ourselves pulled so ruthlessly into grief and despair that we will never emerge.” So how to grieve wisely and honestly?

Is relaxation possible only when we’re not working? No. With awareness and practice, we can be relaxed no matter what we are doing. In fact, when we work in a relaxed state, our productivity increases as our effort decreases.
For true relaxation, we need to connect with our bodies — to consciously and intentionally become aware of tension and release it.

— Hebrew proverb
“Don’t hurry, don’t worry. You’re only here for a short visit. So be sure to stop and smell the flowers.”

Originality
“Originality consists not only in doing things differently, but also in ‘doing things better.'”
-Edward C. Stedman (1833-1908)
I think that this is what inventors have in mind when they come up with all these original concepts. It’s all about progress, growth, building on what has been done before and expanding on what we have learned. And isn’t life like that, too? With human relationships, and our own spiritual growth, we want to “do things better” and improve ourselves and our circumstances. We read books, and take advice, but how we apply it is individual and original to ourselves.

Beliefnet: 5 Reasons to Keep Your Heart Open
Keeping your heart open can be a challenge, especially when you’ve been hurt by someone you love but keeping an open heart can be the gateway to loving again. Here are five reasons to open your heart and trust again.
The Best Portion of Life: Cat’s Angel Message for February 9, 2019
February’s Theme: Trusting in the “unseen” and believing in yourself puts you on the path to manifesting your dreams and goals.
That best portion of a man’s life, his little,nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and love.– William Wordsworth
29: In some respects we all share a very similar life purpose in that we all have something that we can share with others in need. These Humanitarian acts can be complex or as simple as a smile or hug, kind or encouraging words or just being a good listener. Today the Universe is reminding us that we are all qualified to do these small and simple things. Make time today to be there for someone else. Embrace self confidence and listen to your heart as it guides you on this path of service. If it resonates with your spirit you are on the right path. In helping others we often find that we are helping ourselves as well and small acts of compassion and kindness can make a big difference.
Archangel Zadkielblesses us with mercy and compassion towards others and ourselves as he helps us to bring our divine light front and center. The Ascended Master Mother Mary surrounds us with her gentle energy and helps to fill our hearts with love. She teaches us about compassion and forgiveness which are essential to healing ourselves and helping others. And the Greek goddess Artemis reminds us to use our intuitive skills to help others. She says “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 are Kunzite and Rhodonite. Kunzite is a high vibration stone that can help to create a balanced partnership with the Universe as it opens your heart to receiving Divine love. And gentle Rhodonite helps to balance both mental and physical energy. It shows us all sides to any given situation and clears away confusion and helps to promote confidence. It’s calming influence helps us to ground and balance even during chaotic or upsetting situations.
Bright blessings for a magickal day!

Wouldn’t it be great if everyone made a conscious effort to brighten the day of just one other person? It’s actually pretty easy. Simple things like a smile, holding the door, or even a friendly ‘hello” can change someones day and make yours better in the process!
Creating Yourself: Cat’s Angel Message for January 7, 2019
January’s Theme: Stay focused on your desires and not your fears or past happenings. Our thoughts are ready to manifest into reality and by staying focused on what’s positive we lessen the power of the things that we fear.
Life isn’t about finding yourself.Life is about creating yourself.– George Bernard Shaw
17: Today we are being encouraged to embrace and explore our spiritual side. Remember that you can be spiritual and not be specifically religious. Allow your intuition to guide you on this journey so pay attention to the cues and clues that pop up. The Universe and our helpers are always sending us positive vibes. By remaining open to receiving these gifts you will experience growth on both spiritual and personal levels. They help us and can be used to help others as well. A simple way to grow and share lies in the acknowledgement of the good that surrounds us. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if everyone told someone else “Good job!” “Way to go!” or “Thank you for doing your best!” Simple things like these inspire us to see the divine spirit within and the divine spirit in others. Nurture your spirit today and create positive connections.
Archangel Chamuel helps us in regards to relationships. This includes the one we have with ourselves and our own spiritual nature. he helps us to build a strong foundation from which we can create our personal evolution. The Ascended Master Serapis Bey brings us spiritual insight He teaches us that by surrounding yourself with loving energy you can find the peace you need to deal with what life sends your way. And the Egyptian goddess Isis fills us with peaceful power, confidence and graceful strength. She helps our spirit to soar and encourages us to inspire ourselves and others. She tells us “Be grateful for the baby steps that move you along your path, for they are milestones on your inward journey. Celebrate these steps and appreciate every kindness shown as they are all part of a grand celebration!”
Our Sacred Stone for today is White Topaz. This gemstone helps to increase our connection to the Divine. This gemstone brings feelings of happiness and spiritual awareness. You can also use your Rose Quartz to help you “feel the love” that surrounds you.
Bright blessings for a magickal day!
