CORRECTION TO JULY ISSUE OF RADIANCE NOW: The first paragraph of the article: “Stepping Into Your Power: a Journey of Trust” begins with the quote “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate...” cites Nelson Mandela as the author, which is incorrect. Marianne Williamson wrote it. These are Ms. Williamson’s words “Several years ago, this paragraph from my book: A Return to Love began popping up everywhere, attributed to Nelson Mandela’s 1994 Inaugural Address. As honored as I would be had President Mandela quoted my words, indeed he did not. I have no idea where that story came from, but I am gratified that the paragraph has come to mean so much to so many people.”

iving in Peace:

A Natural State of Being

U

nless you have experienced the calmness of being present in your everyday life, absent thoughts of frustration, anxiety, angst, impatience or anger, you may not even know what a peaceful existence is. I know until recently, I did not. I was unaware how to get through the day without a negative feeling or thought; it was so far off my radar that I didn’t even know to strive for it.

The process of finding peace for myself began when I recognized that I was angry every day; in fact, several times a day. It was my natural state of being. I had grown so accustomed to it that I was almost completely desensitized to its perpetual existence. I was tired, exhausted and bored with such a unilateral personality and way of life. so it began with a question, “Why am I so angry?” Think about your own natural state of being: Are you depressed, sad, guilty, anxious, insecure, etc.? You know what plagues you. If not, start with the question: “Why do I keep doing certain things? Or, “Why do certain things keep “happening” to me?”

If you remain calm and dedicated to the process, the answers will start to come.

As your web of beliefs begins to unravel, you may start to realize your reasons (which seemed so incredibly

right at the time) do not appear to have the same meaning you originally gave them.

If your “unhappy” natural state of being involves another individual, then set the intent to understand their emotional limitations as a cause of their ill treatment towards you. Send them love and light knowing their behavior is due to their own pain and not a personal attack against you.

As you continue wading through whatever is keeping you in a state of mind (other than deep calm and peacefulness) your successes will begin to have an impact. Each time you work through something, you will feel lighter, quieter, clearer, more open minded, more patient, more understanding; the list goes on and on. Eventually, you will pass the mid-point where you begin to spend more time happy than unhappy. It accelerates from there as you begin knowing the true effects of self-healing and what you have to look forward to as a result. It just gets better and better every day.

I am not sure what my future holds, however, I do know that my states of peacefulness last much longer, and when I do get upset, it passes much more quickly and with far less effort. Weeks pass by now without feelings of unhappiness, whereas before, I was lucky to go a few hours.

We all have the ability to heal from our wounds. We can meditate ourselves into a deep understanding or reach out to others for help. The method you choose is less important than setting the intent to have the life you deserve: that being one of a natural state of peace.

Namaste, Rev. Danielle Marie.

“There Is a Web of Women”

by Barbara Ardinger

There is a web of women living lightly in the world.

As gently as hand upon forehead, checking for fever, the web touches the pulse of the planet with intention to help to heal to comfort.

There is a flood of women weeping softly for the world.

As tender as hand upon heart, cherishing her precious children, the web cries for lost intention to heal to comfort to help.

There is a circle of women dancing joyfully through the world.

As exultant as hand touching yoni, celebrating our mysteries, the web sings for intention found again to comfort to help to heal.

There is a web of women tenderly enclosing the world.

As sturdy as hands setting roots, planting community, the web encircles intention held to help to heal to comfort.

On her website, Barbara writes, I’ve used this poem in several versions in several places, even read it in a ritual or two. Because it has four stanzas, it can be used to cast a circle. This is the one poem that actually got me out of bed and turning on my computer at three a.m. so I could format it properly. For as long as I can remember, I’ve been besotted by words, in love with the English language. My parents read to me (as I read to my son) practically from the moment of my birth, and when I learned to read, I always received books for Christmas and my birthday and had finished reading them within the week. I still have some of my childhood books: old editions of Little Women, Grimms’ Fairy Tales, Andrew Lang’s fairy books, Hans Brinker, The Wizard of Oz, all the

Nancy Drew and Cherry Ames books. My mother was a member of the Literary Guild and because she never got around to sending the post cards back, I got to read her books, too. (I learned early on how to climb up and get the ones on the top shelves.)

She gave me her official permission to read Gone With the Wind when I was eleven. Boy, was that an eye-opener for a naïve little girl! My parents also bought my brother and me The Book of Knowledge; I read straight through all twenty volumes. Yeah. I have been, as they say, bookish all my life. Today, of course, I spend most of my time editing and writing.

hen 9/11 happened, I had just returned home to Honolulu from an extended trip working in New York, Columbus, Ohio and California. The next morning we received a call from a relative in New York to turn on the television. I felt I was watching a movie, since not long ago I had been there and now suddenly the picture that was unfolding on the screen seemed in many ways unreal and very difficult to grasp at that moment. Then we learned that all U.S. airports were closed.

The next few days were spent finding some way to understand what was happening 4,000 miles away, while a few minutes from my home was the pristine, turquoise ocean with all its enchanting surf and wild nature. It was like I was experiencing two realities at the same time, but which one was real? I knew from the start what had happened deep within myself and it took some days for me to be able to listen to information that was being channeled through me.

On Monday, September 17th, 2001, six days after the event, I finally succumbed to writing the channeled message I had been receiving. I am now being guided to release it as we mark the tenth anniversary.

9/11: A

Universal Perspective

THE CHANNELED MESSAGE: Yes indeed beloved one, what took place a week ago in the city of New York? Was it known that this was going to happen and what was the real purpose created by this?

Many answers are already answered by the event itself. (A little note on the side, as this event will be seen as a war between good and evil, look at the word evil backward: Live.) Understand that there are many hidden clues and various ways of perceiving this and it is certainly not only about good and evil even though on one level that is certainly part of it.

Dear Aros, you do know deep within yourself what this is all about. Be aware of your hesitation of truly feeling the answers you are receiving. Being in the truth and having the courage to feel it and express it, many times takes great faith and compassion for the larger picture, especially when the entire human race is the witness by their opinions, feelings and turbulent emotions; this you are being shown quite clearly. Dare to feel your heart in this delicate situation; then you will have the courage and strength.

No matter how devastating and awful the situation is, you will see and understand that in this giant transformation there is a great opening in the human consciousness to be witnessed. >> continued on page 12

destruction have been like a dormant seed within the human consciousness ready to burst out and bear fruit.

Many of the wars that have been fought on your planet through the millennia have, to a certain degree, limited this to fully explode in the same way that many small earthquakes release the pressure preventing a big one to take place. This is only a temporary relief, as sooner or later everything hidden within the matrix of the human pattern and evolution must surface to be transformed and give room for a new creation to come into being and understanding in the new dawn. The night of destruction will be no more and the daylight of love and inspiration will be the stars of the new evening sky. The planets will have gained back their true source of origin and instead of creating challenges, they will now be in full synchronicity with the human thought and the wellbeing and gracious rhythm of the divine heart.

Beloved one, in such an event, everything and everyone on the planet, every plant, animal and living thing has a purpose and a role to play. Why

continued from page 10 >> Please be in the understanding

that nothing of this caliber, like a tidal wave crushing on the shores of the world, can take place without carrying in its immediate wake such tremendous transformation on a very huge scale that will eventually liberate the human mind and set it free to become part of the divine mind.

The Earth, the divine mother, the spirit and the almighty One is calling forth the united truths in all being’s hearts. The matrix of confined understanding is being exposed, dissolved and realigned to merge naturally in the new paradigm that is being birthed and is the true witness to all the different events and upheavals. This is a natural response when the human consciousness has been in a sleep state of ignorance. In the awakening, there will be many dramatic occurrences, because when the limited consciousness once again remembers that its true state is full consciousness, that realization will cause a certain reaction of resentment and anger to flare up and to be realized.

All the transformations, no matter how they are expressed, are truly part of releasing the consciousness from the chains that held it down.

Unfortunately, sometimes these chains can be the government of a country, a religion or any organized institution, that is allowing them to set themselves up as the saviors of the world. You will come to see that it works both ways. It is truly the giant will and longing of the human heart to find its own purpose and feel its divine nature. It is like a child learning to walk; it is like a sleeping volcano awakening to express itself and its own divine power in its eruption. In that eruption, death, destruction and challenges will become very evident. Yet beneath all of this, a tender sprout can be seen and the soil of the earth of that divine madness will be so exquisite and give birth and give the opportunity for a whole new world to come into being.

For this to become very evident, the notion of good and bad must be dispelled from the human consciousness. In the cities of New York, Washington and other places exists sacred monuments and symbols and energies that date back well over thousands of years and because of the limited consciousness, the belief in religious dogmas are now surfacing and creating a chain reaction that shows up as more fear, chaos and anger so it can be dispelled from the human consciousness once and for all.

Also, it is wise to remember that these actions of

see far beyond the battlefield of blame and guilt.

BLAME IS ALWAYS BORN OUT OF GUILT. Knowing that, anyone and everyone can now choose to perceive what is truly happening. Both sides of the battlefield carry tremendous aspects of guilt. Understand it! Let go of the judgment!

Look into the horizon of splendid light and compassion and unconditional love. ike it or not, sooner or later everyone will have to come to this realization: there is no one to die for or fight against. It is truly the bell of freedom rung by the sensation brotherhood of man.

Everybody must face themselves in the giant mirror now being displayed right in front of the human race. The truth will set you free on all levels and the self of each being can be fully recognized and honored as the creation of this world. This will free you from all traps set by the hunter of duality and inspired by its master, the king of fears. Death as such now experienced, is not only on the physical plane, it is happening as well on many inside planes. Millions of people are experiencing the death of the old world with all its traps and limited values.

It is the dawn of resurrection for the human consciousness and the final battle of global transformation. From now on, transformation will not be a battle. Instead it will be in the flow of certain souls have chosen certain parts to play, is the full divine enfoldment based upon unity in all not for you or anyone to dwell upon, because the things.

Tips Heart Chakra Tip:

Quips Quick Heart Chakra Cleansing and Balancing Tip:

Are your sugar cravings out of control?

There’s a good chance that your Heart Chakra is blocked or out of balance. When your Heart Chakra is blocked you aren’t feeling the love and you are cut off from the sweetness of life.

We tend to compensate for that sweetness with sugar. Cleanse and balance your Heart Chakra and get the love flowing!

Focus your attention in the center of your chest area and visualize a pulsating emerald green ball of energy, spinning in a clockwise direction. This is your Heart chakra, the chakra of Self-Acceptance and governs your thoughts and feelings concerning love and relationships. Mentally see or feel your heart chakra and release any blocks to SelfAcceptance by simply saying to yourself, “I willingly release any fears or struggles I have about giving and receiving love. I witness the release of any unresolved emotions or blocks keeping me from experiencing sweet, loving and compassionate relationships. I love and accept myself. I am beautiful, I am perfect, I am very loved and I gladly allow this love to overflow from me to others.” Feel the warmth that this love spreads through your body.

Feel your whole body light up with the knowledge that you are so worthy of this love. And see or feel your heart chakra open and bloom into a brilliant pulsating emerald green flower completely cleansed and flowing with Love. Breathe this self- accepting energy of love into every cell of your body.

Return Home from Separation.

Reunite with Your Soul

By Susann Taylor Shier

R

eunion with the Divine is our purpose.

Embodiment of that union is our fulfillment.

What a wonderful time we are in on this glorious planet we know as planet Earth. We may feel more at home in the stars of the heavens above, but Earth is certainly where the galactic focus is right now. Every aspect of the field of creation that this universe is part of is indeed like a loving cheerleading squad, holding a holy space for our soulful reunion, individually and collectively.

We may have parts within us that are struggling with feeling separate in their various ways from Spirit’s wealth. That is real. Whether we are caught in hopelessness, helplessness, grief, fear or powerlessness, we are simply experiencing a color of the rainbow of separation from our soul and its connection to Spirit that leaves us feeling ambushed by our emotional state of disconnection.

While this is transpiring, our souls are jumping for joy to be part of this magical time that we are emerging into. The process of spiritual transformation is truly happening on a grand scale and it is certain in its movement. Do you feel that sense of knowing, even if presently it feels tucked away in a small treasure chest within the recesses of your sacred heart. Maybe you are feeling it in every fiber of your being, but have been

16

cautious to truly claim it.

Now is your time to know that all is working out and will be given expression and fruition. It has been scientifically proven that what we hold in our hearts and consciousness does radiate to the whole world and beyond. So, if you KNOW that “IT” is working out and a large orchestration of factors is conspiring to co-create with us, then you are allowing all to be reunited with the universal field of creation right here on planet Earth.

Our single most important purpose at this time is to simply keep putting one divinely connected foot in front of the other.

We are each a master, here to bring forth our soul’s purpose, our heart’s fulfillment, and our life mission. It is our job to understand why our soul chose to come to Earth and how it is to bring Light into a world at a time when great darkness prevails. Each soul has many helper aspects. It is innately connected to guides, angels, councils of beings, and Soul Families. Through our souls, we belong to a collective, unified energy field that is working for all humankind. This appears to be true more than ever at this highly significant time in our universal history.

Each moment that we lead our life from our heart and soul, we are aligned with our destiny and we are practicing soul mastery. As simple as it sounds, accessing the gifts of our soul is the greatest offering we each can make to return the world to the Earth blueprint based on love. This is the world that we all feel in our hearts is possible.

Our connection to these larger universal realms for co-creation is our true nourishment. The larger worlds we come from as part of our soul heritage are continually holding that space of love and pure connection for us to be part of. The beings from our soul heritage who know and understand us and our soul plans and purposes are our true “god parents,” They are in alignment with our mission to take on a human body to execute the purposes of the collective universal mission.

Our soul is part of a collective of souls who are deeply connected to us at many levels. If we haven’t yet turned toward our soul, and this collective of souls we are a part of, there is a longing present

Return Home from Separation, Reunite with Your Soul

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 17 >> We all chose to step

into the shoes of a human form communing with infinite Spirit. We said “yes” to this experience of consciously creating through the six senses moving in the physical capacity for expression. Your body longs to be unified with your soul so that you can have the greatest fulfillment possible of this physical experience called life.

Our body, as a vehicle for physical, mental and emotional expression, is longing to know Spirit’s movement through it again and be reunited with the universal life source that gave birth to us. It is continually regenerating itself to give us renewed possibility to know wholeness in all ways possible.

The marriage of body and soul is a primary life purpose for each of us. And it is the only way for us to truly know divine fulfillment.

There are two routes to take to experience union of body and soul. First, your body and consciousness must awaken to receive Spirit’s revelation as your guiding light. Second, the soul must honor the physical experience it has chosen.

In the first instance, separation occurs because we deny Spirit’s gifts. In the second instance, separation is known when we try to live a spiritual life which is not embodied. We keep our spiritual wealth in an energetic realm when we enter higher states in ourselves, leaving our body, mind and heart high and dry from being engaged in this energetic wealth we touch. This occurs in times of heightened states of meditation that take us to euphoric states, or bring us grand visions that we find difficult to implement. This also occurs in moments of disregard for our physical expression, or when we act from unconscious patterns of withholding from fully engaging in life here.

The body, in and of itself without a conscious spiritual connection, prefers comfort and protection.

It is resistant to change and anything out of its structural comfort zone for maintaining a survivalbased existence. The soul is the adventurer and risk taker. It came to this realm of physicality for the adventure of physical life. It already knew how to be a soul being.

This state is captured by the image of an angel plucking on the universal harp. It is the soul that loves the infinite field of physical experiences that provide endless possibilities for creation and play.

It is the soul that guides us to experience what the capacity for physical and feeling sensation brings, the endless joys of being alive in a body: dancing,

singing, smelling flowers, eating fine cuisine, seeing sights of exquisite beauty, knowing the full range of sensation in lovemaking, and on and on.

Our consciousness has lost its lighthouse of Spirit in attempting to navigate the complexities of human existence. The fact is, our lives only become complex and stress filled when our internal compass is not unified with Spirit. A human void of connection to love will choose overprotection or destruction, such as greed, fear or manipulation, as its guide. This choice brings about the state of living beyond our means on all levels. Soul reunion is the union of our capacity to know physical aliveness with our soul gifts and strengths.

As our soul gifts find space in us, first in our sacred heart and then into the rest of our capacities, we awaken to the true enlightened state of being in Love with life itself. We discover the joy of igniting creation through our abundant means for its revelation through human form.

What

Feeds You? T

by Rupina Meer

he food that we eat is vital for optimal health and balance, but what really feeds us—a full and fulfilling life—doesn’t come on a plate. “Primary” food is so powerful that it can fast track you into the express lane to achieving your optimal health and happiness.

The 4:00 pm chime of my cuckoo clock pierced the afternoon stillness. My deadline a mere 60 minutes away and I was nowhere near ready to send this baby off to my editor. As an adrenaline junkie, I thrive on deadlines as they seem to transform me into this supernova with magical focus. A few well-placed snips here, a tuck there and I somehow made it. As soon as I hit the send button, a warm victorious flush, like a red wine stain, spread through my insides. But I also became aware of the notso-faint growls emanating from my stomach. I suddenly realized that I had skipped lunch, but I didn’t need to eat.

I was nourished by the creative spirit of my writing. So, what feeds you?

Remember when you were a child and you got so wrapped up in playing, imagining or creating that you didn’t want to stop when it was time to eat? Do you remember what it was like to spin and spin and spin as you staggered to the ground in a gaggle of giggles to watch the clouds spin into swirls? You were a bride to amazement and innocence. Everything was exciting and new. Colors were vivid. You forgot all about food and the passion of play took all your attention. At the end of the day, you’d come in exhausted and go to sleep with no thoughts of food at all.

Or, remember a time when you were deeply involved in an exciting project. You believed in what you were

doing and felt confident and stimulated. You lost all track of time. The outside world faded away. You didn’t need to eat; someone had to come by and remind you.

At the Institute for Integrative Nutrition (IIN) where I studied, we constantly discussed the importance of “primary” food. Just as in the human body, there exists a literal anatomy made up of bones and flesh and a poetic anatomy made up of chakras and energy, primary food is equivalent to the poetic anatomy. It feeds us, but doesn’t come on a plate. Often we are fed not by food, but by the energy swirling in our lives. We hunger for play, fun, freedom, touch, hugs, art, music, self-expression, success, adventure and spirituality. These primary foods feed our souls and our hunger for living. When they’re balanced and satiating, life itself feeds us, making the food on our plates secondary.

Modern nutrition — carbs, proteins, fats and micronutrients — is really just one source of nourishment. Obviously eating is a vital biological activity and without it you will wither away in a week or so. But unless you’re literally starving or stranded somewhere with no food or water, other dimensions of the human experience are generally much more important than the food we put in our mouths.

In his eye-opening book, Integrative Nutrition: Feed Your Hunger for Health & Happiness, Joshua Rosenthal narrates an example that really drove home the concept of primary food in an impactful way. As an owner of a health food store, he routinely observed the persnickety customers shopping at his store. They were extremely diligent about the quality of foods they consumed, asking tons of questions and picking the organic produce with great care. Their diets seemed perfect, but they didn’t appear to be the healthiest, happiest people around. In direct contrast, the soda gulping, popcorn munching folks at the next door movie theatre, in spite of their destructive heart attack-waiting-to-happen habits, seemed to exude this joie de vivre, enjoying themselves with their friends or romantic partners. It seems that the movie goers’ primary food was nourishing them at such a deep level that it negated some of the harmful effects of the secondary foods they were consuming.

Now, I’m not suggesting that you gorge yourself with Twinkies and Mud pies thinking you have immunity if you’re in a happy place and life is nourishing you in other ways. But the next time you’re feeling some inexplicable urges or cravings, go a little deeper within.

Instead of sanitizing, rationalizing or tranquilizing the urge, simply bring awareness to what your body, mind and soul are really hungry for. Is it primary or secondary

24

food? And what happens when you substitute one for the other?

Think of a time when you experienced bone-crushing isolation, corrosive depression or the inevitable dismantling of self that occurs when life throws you a curveball. You were starving for primary food. No amount of secondary food would do. You can eat all the broccoli and kale in the world but you’re not going to be living life at full capacity. Children innately understand that food is secondary to what is most nutritious and primary in life: play and love. But as adults we seem to have lost our instinct to prioritize play. For me, part of my own personal growth has been to lighten up.

I’ve had to learn to spice up my profundity with a dash of play here and a touch of joy there. Even in good times, how many of you have fallen into the old refrigerator-stare habit, inhaling cold spaghetti, when you come home at night when all you really want is a hug or a friend to talk to?

The more primary food we receive, the less we’ll depend on secondary food.

The opposite is also true: the more we fill ourselves with secondary food, the less we are able to receive the primary foods of life. That is why every spiritual tradition encourages followers to fast, to have times during the year when secondary food intake is reduced, so that we are more able to be present to God’s love and the primary foods in our lives.

What Qualifies as Primary Food?

At IIN, we embrace a radically holistic approach to nutrition as we evaluate the below four forms of primary food and how they impact our clients’ health as a whole:

struggles with others. But today many of us lead overly isolated lives plugged into our 24/7 media. The irony is that the more we’re plugged in, the more disconnected we’ve become. The most chilling example that comes to mind of the decline in meaningful relationships is the case of a UK woman who announced her suicide on her Facebook wall. None of her more than 1,000

Often we are fed not by food, but by the energy swirling in our lives.

”

“friends” contacted her in response to the posting, and many simply argued back and forth about the legitimacy of her posting. In fact, MIT professor Sherry Turkle purports in her book, Alone Together that more people need to put down their phones, turn off their computers, and learn to communicate with one another face-to-face. She laments, “We have invented inspiring and enhancing technologies, yet we have allowed them to diminish us.”

Some of you may enjoy the solitary life and be energized by time alone while others at the opposite end of the spectrum may need lots of socializing and intimacy. Avoid making judgments about what is socially acceptable or superficially desirable and simply take the time to reflect on what style of relating works best for you at this point in your life. The goal is to balance your togetherness-aloneness equation—it’s

a bit like discovering the ideal amount of protein, carbs or exercise that is right for you. And know that these needs will change over time just as our dietary needs, bodies, relationships and the very earth that sustains us are fluid and fleeting, fueled by the breath of change.

• CAREER Most of us spend more than half of our waking hours at work, yet how many of us really enjoy it? Are you one of those pragmatic types that simply views your work as a means to bringing home a paycheck, but haven’t allowed yourself the opportunity to seek out something that’s truly fulfilling? Finding the work you love is a key element in living a nourished life. One way to identify meaningful work is to notice what you already spend your time on. Make a list of all the things you love to do, including your hobbies, leisure time activities and subjects that ignite your curiosity.

Make sure the list is exhaustive as somewhere on this list may lie the key to your new career. Or simply reflect on what’s working and what’s not working in your current career. Try making some key adjustments--such as asking for flex time or joining a new project—that could make your job more rewarding.

• PHYSICAL ACTIVITY: Our bodies thrive on movement. Notice I use the term movement as opposed to exercise as the latter often conjures up negative connotations of something you have to labor at. Movement can be anything you enjoy doing from playing volleyball to gyrating your hips to hypnotic tunes at a Zumba class to surfing. Be experimental, understanding how different types of movement nourish your body and then putting together a menu of sustainable activities that will keep you in balance. Check in with your body and choose the activity accordingly. For instance, if you’ve been failing frail and unfocused, choose a vigorous workout, such as kickboxing or running that >> continued on pg 28

continued from page 25 >> will make you feel stable and powerful. Conversely, if you’re feeling tight and tense, limber up to a yoga or dance class to increase lightness and flexibility.

• SPIRITUALITY: We all search for meaning in our lives and spiritual nutrition can feed us on a profound level. You may be inclined to follow your birth religion, explore other forms of spirituality or evolve an integrative approach. For me personally, I was born into the ancient Zoroastrian religion but following dogmatic scriptures that I didn’t understand did not come naturally to me. And over the years, I’ve become more of a spiritual “mutt”, embracing practices that resonate with me and my journey to freeing myself from conditioned patterns of the past. My spiritual practice revolves around yoga, meditation and just being still in nature. I also have the privilege of being schooled by a wise Zen master, my 12-year old Chihuahua, who is permanently sutured to my hip. He’s seen me in moments of fragility and majesty, but never judges from the surface and his simplicity and naturalness of being constantly remind me to be in the now. In fact, he’s taught me the deepest spiritual lessons without uttering a word. What does your spiritual practice look like? Take some time to reflect on what spiritual nutrition you need.

Circle of Life

osenthal recommends this simple exercise to discover where you’re stuck and which primary foods are missing in your life. Print out the below diagram and place a dot on each line marking how satisfied you are with each area of your life. A dot placed at the center, or near the middle, indicates dissatisfaction, while one place near the periphery indicates happiness.

This exercise helps to give feelings of imbalance a visual, and makes tangible the areas that need attention. This mapping can be emotional, so give it a try when you are feeling emotionally neutral and see

what you discover.

I once saw a refrigerator magnet showing a woman standing before an open freezer, saying, “Amazing!

Perfect ice cubes again.”

If perfect ice cubes, a dazzling sunset or an old song hasn’t made you feel alive, why not? What’s keeping you from feeling your rapture? What makes you light up? Make time for it this week. Even if you don’t have much free time for fun, try approaching a “serious” activity with an attitude of play. Be a scientist of your own primary food experience and discover what nourishes you from the inside out.

Meeting Your GUARDIAN ANGELS T

hink of your best friend. Have you known them since childhood, high school or are they new to your life?

Do you tell them and share everything? Do they know you inside and out, sometimes even better than you know yourself and love you unconditionally? That is a true friend, someone who stands by through the ups and downs of life, offers guidance and support, and tells the truth even when you don’t want to hear it. I hope each one of you can think of one person in your life that fits that description. If you cannot, then I have news for you, you do have friends like that! They have been with you since birth, actually before you were born, and stand beside you right now – they are your Guardian Angels. They are assigned to you alone, and won’t go work with anyone else because they cannot; they are your true “best friends”.

I have heard many different responses when it comes to the subject of Angels: “I’m not religious; The Angels don’t like me; I’ve done some bad things in my life,” are just a few that come to mind. Even though Angels are found in all religious denominations, fellowship in a religion is not needed for their guidance. Fear of judgment from any past actions will block the connection since any judgment is through your own filter. The Angels love you unconditionally. We are all able to benefit from their love and guidance.

When you move away from your material world and change the belief that if it cannot be felt, seen, or heard, then it will cease to exist, and a new perspective on your earthly existence will emerge.

Within that new understanding and the application of the following steps, Angelic guidance will be inevitable:

ASK Just ask for what you need and

thank them in advance for the solution. It is important to ask since the Angels will never interfere with your free will, except if you are in a situation that will end your life before your time.

SURRENDER THE PROBLEM Hand it over and let your Angels handle it. This means really emotionally releasing the problem to them. Do not think, worry or doubt that the problem will not be resolved.

TRUST This is a difficult step but a vital one to receiving the solution to the problem. Your Guardian Angels always have your best interests at heart. They have a resolution to the situation that is better than you could ever dream. Do not give a script to your Angels on how you want the answer to appear in your life.

Let them surprise you with their Divine solutions.

FOLLOW DIVINE DIRECTION You may

be given some human steps to complete.

These directives will come through a dream, a vision, or an intuitive/gut feeling.

Your Angels may ask you to go to a particular place or call a certain person, or even work on doing some emotional healing. It is important to remember that any Angelic guidance always comes from the ultimate Divine source and is filled with love and support. A good rule to go by is if it doesn’t feel good, then don’t do it.

A great way to start communicating with your Angels is to ask for something small. Remember you are testing the communication, not the Angels. For

Marybeth is originally from New York and was drawn to metaphysics at a young age. Early on she began to ‘know’ the outcome of events, feel unseen energy in the room and talk with her Guardian Angels. Marybeth now lives in California and helps individuals connect with their Angels through diverse workshops, classes, and private consultations. She is also a paranormal investigator and helps earth bound energy cross into the Light and acts as a spiritual medium for those wishing to contact relatives that reside in the Light. Marybeth uses her gifts of clairvoyance, clairsentience, clairaudience and claircognizance to assist in connecting with the Angels so that her clients receive the clearest channeled information from the Divine.

example, something small would be a parking space or as I call it ‘Rock Star Parking’.

Angels have never walked the physical earth; their energy is lighter and more expansive. They understand your problems but from a broader perspective, they do not get caught up in the details of life, and they can see results and happenings long before you can see them. That is why it is important not to tell your Angels how you would like a problem solved. They will come up with something amazing; I’ve seen it happen in my own life. I am always surprised and truly blessed by their incredible work in my life. Your only job is to stay open to receiving and try not to control the gift that they would like to give. Your miracles are waiting. Enjoy the discovery!

TEMPLE of LIGHT We are co-creating a healed world where our human family knows the truth of who we really are: that we are beings of light with the ability to love unconditionally, to live without fear and to live in the “now�. We are aware that we manifest all aspects of our existence, and that anything created can be uncreated. We know that we live in a safe universe and that no real harm can come to any of us. We understand our pain as an elaborate projection of our negative subconscious thoughts. We recognize we are beings of love who have simply been taught to fear and we are skilled at consciously moving beyond that into our most magnificent expression.
