Manifesting (continued)

The next important component in the art of manifestation is congruency. Congruency is when everything; your thoughts, words, and actions match up.
You have experienced incongruency when you have known someone was lying to you. You may not have known how you knew, but you did. The person's eyes may have wavered and been unable to hold your gaze, or they spoke with a crack in their voice that did not match their words.
Congruency is the reason you must believe you deserve and can handle what you want. If you do not believe in your desires or have confidence in yourself, it will take longer and be more difficult to manifest what you want in your life.
Your subconscious knows the truth about your beliefs and values. The good thing is that if you want to exchange your beliefs for better ones, you can do that easily with the power of your imagination. Anthony Robbins and Louise L. Hay are very good authors that have written about exchanging lousy beliefs for better ones.
So, after you begin changing your thoughts for higher-frequency ones, you need to make your words and actions follow suit. If you make a cutting remark to someone and then say, "Just kidding," the Universe will determine that you are just kidding when you make a request to manifest something. You have to be consistently congruent with your language.
You must also be consistent with your actions. Your word must become law. If you say you will be somewhere at a certain time, you must do your best to be there. If you say you will help a friend, you must do so. Learning to make your word law will give you self-confidence and you will begin to realize your power.
You can call upon Yeshuah,(the proper name that was translated to Jesus), and Archangel Gabriel to help you with your words and the power of your actions.

Manifesting (continued)

You are beginning to do well with changing your thought patterns. However, there is more.
The reason so many people have difficulty with positive thinking is that they think that is the end of it. They create fantasies like a Cinderella story and then slump back into their old patterns of thinking out of frustration.
First of all, you cannot give up. Persistence is the key word here. You must continuously monitor your thoughts. Constantly nip negative ones in the bud and replace them with believable, higher-frequency thoughts. You cannot just think, "Cancel, Delete," because no energy is ever lost. You must have a higher-frequency thought to push out the lower-frequency, negative energy of the old thought.
It must be believable because, if your subconscious is not convinced, it will not partner up with your conscious mind to create the conditions allowing you to experience positive change. For example, if you are thinking that you want to have all the money that Donald Trump has, your subconscious will know that deep down you really only feel capable of handling $50,000. The conscious and subconscious thoughts both cancel out as they are not compatible with each other.
Examine your beliefs and values to find resources of positive thinking. Teach yourself to accept that you truly only feel able to deal with a certain amount of money or a certain level of relationship - at this moment. Once you own that, you free yourself to move on and move up. You can build upon those levels of acceptance.
And that, briefly, is what persistence is about.
Any Angels, Guardians, and Guides can help you with persistence. A few particular ones are Archangel Uriel, Noah, Moses, Chief Joseph of the Nez Perce, and Lugh, a Celtic god of Harvest.

Manifesting

Manifesting is a big buzz word these days. People forget or do not realize that we are manifesting all the time. Whether it is something you think you want or something you don't want, you are still manifesting.
You manifest with your thoughts, by what you think about persons, places, things, or situations. These thoughts are usually in the form of judgements and, if you examine them, are mostly negative judgements.
By the Law of the Universe - What you put out there comes back to you - thinking negative thoughts directs negativity into your life. If you want to examine your thought patterns, just take a look around at your life at this moment. Your manner of thinking has brought you to this point.
If you want to change anything in your life, you must begin now to change your thoughts, your judgements about it. Then, be patient. Your thoughts are instantaneous, but it takes a minute for the Universe to convert that cyberspace thought energy into a physical manifestation that you can experience.
The Angels are excellent to call upon to help you transform your thinking patterns. Michael the Archangel can quickly dissolve negative thinking with his Blazing Sword of Light. There are also Ascended Masters that can help uplift your thoughts into a higher frequency such as Thoth the Teacher, Kuthumi the Sikh Spiritual Leader, and Melchizedek the Canaanite King.

Birthdays

I just celebrated a birthday & while some people may complain, I think birthdays are wonderful. I learned, many years ago, that for 40 days after your birthday, you can make wishes to the Universe.
Forty is an important number in many cultures. Remember the story in the Bible of Noah and his family enduring 40 days and nights of rain and Jesus fasting for 40 days in the desert? There are 40 days of Lent before the celebration of Easter. Psychologists say that it takes 40 days to cement a habit change in one's personality. It may take 21 days to change, but 40 is the magic number to confirm the change.
Making wishes to the Universe may be a bit Pollyanna-ish, but it offers a way to give back to the Universe that doesn't cost you money, just an effort to intend on purpose. You can wish for one thing each day, such as blessing the Rain Forest or sending anonymous blessings to shut-ins, or any infinite number of good wishes.
The wonderful thing about this exercise is that your wishes bounce back to you multiplied. You may not know which wish is returning to you in a good way, but the laws of the Universe make it so: "As above, so below" and "What you sow, you shall reap."
If you have difficulty in thinking of a wish to send out to the Universe, ask your Infinite Angels for ideas. They will offer you ideas that will be compatible with your personality, beliefs, and ideals.
And today, I wish that you find the Wonderment and Joy of a young child in each day!

Remembering Your True Self

The Greek admonition of "Know thyself" inscribed on the Temple of Apollo at Delphi is a task worthy of a lifetime of study. And, it usually takes a lifetime of observing oneself as we humans are complicated & complex.
It occurs to me that, when you learn to know yourself, you begin to have the recognition that you are not learning something new. You are remembering.
You begin to remember what you have experienced & with whom, what conditions formed your likes & dislikes, your personality. Then, you begin to have the ability to see others' perspectives, which widens your universe.
You can begin to remember that you are bigger than your experiences, larger than your conditions. You remember that, deep within you, you have a spark of God that is Your True Self.
That can be shocking & have a profound effect upon your personality. The implications may cause fear & trepidation. What if you are fabricating a fantasy? (You are not) What if all the criticisms you have heard all of your life are the reality? (It is not) What if you have to live up to a higher standard now & you do not have the ability?
Surprise! God has given you everything you need to succeed! You also have extra help from special helpers... your Angels, Guardians, & Guides. Push through with the solid knowingness that you can succeed in making your life better.
Remember who you are & remember you are not alone.

EARTH BLESSING ~by Jack Manno

I recently came across a prayer from the heart that I would like to share with you today. These are the thoughts in my heart as well.
EARTH BLESSING
May earth’s song reach us in our deepest & wildest places.
May it be heard as we move upon her, as we partake of her sustenance, as we nestle in her waters & grasses.
May we hear the voices of the stones, the winds & waters, creatures & plants, above the human chatter, softly but not silently, so we can heed them when we must.
May all those who try to conquer earth’s powers learn instead from compost & humus, and take from them humility, knowing any force conquered is lost forever to the conqueror.
May compassion wrack the polluter’s heart, so stunned the earth’s gifts their poisons cannot be released.
At long last, may earth’s protectors throw grand parties where victory is declared in a mighty sigh of relief.
May this exhalation resound in ocean depths, reverberate in humpback flesh & please all the watery souls.
May whales & wolves rejoice with weird shouts that all is well.
May we have a world’s celebration where everyone stays put, our roots seeking amusements together deep in the earth, our branches entwined in the winds.
May our grandchildren’s grandchildren share legends of when we brought about the end of the time of arrogance & waste.
May they toss stones from shores, hearing our names echo in the ripples.
So may it be. ~Jack Manno

Pulling Weeds

A lovely lady & prolific author, Louise L. Hay, whose teachings I have studied for almost 30 years recommends regular meditative practices of cleaning up your life.
One way to do that is pulling weeds. I did that today. Weeds can be symbols of those things in life that creep up on you. They get in your garden & before you know it, there is a big, ugly plant that has taken up root.
Weeds use water & nutrients from the soil that flowers & vegetables might use. The weeds of life such as negative thinking, pessimistic people, & low-frequency places steal life energy that you need to evolve & grow.
In using this type of meditation, you would affirm in your mind or out loud by saying, "I am pulling out & throwing away the weeds of my life. I am getting rid of anything that no longer serves my highest good."
As you pull the weeds out of the ground & your garden of life, you will be able to see a change right away reflected in the ground around your vegetables or flowers. Your subconscious mind will reflect improvements in your life by showing you more beauty within & surrounding you.
As always, you can ask your Angels for assistance with this project. Archangel Michael is a wonderful teammate as his Sword of Light can help with those especially stubborn weeds - of one kind or another!

Getting Quiet

In our hustle, bustle world, it is often difficult to hear or sense our inner guidance & messages from our Infinite Angels. Angels speak very softly, so when we are blaring music or arguing in our mind with others or ourselves, we cannot hear the whispers of support & love.
You may need to find a quiet place. Even the bathroom is okay, if that is the best you can do. Get as comfortable as you can, either sitting or laying down. Get all of your fidgeting done with as soon as possible. Calm your hands & place them in your lap or at your sides. Uncross your feet or legs. Move your head around so your neck is straight & in a comfortable position.
Then, breathe. Yes, breathe. Close your eyes. Notice your breath moving in & out of your lungs. Feel your chest move upward with an inbreath & downward with your outbreath.
Then, begin to follow your breath inward to your center, to the area of your heart. Feel the energy there, the love. Connect with your heartlight. See it in your mind's eye. Feel it growing brighter, stronger.
Feel yourself connect with your Angels as you become more & more quiet. You may actually hear them speaking to you in your mind's ear or you may have a sense of knowingness that is very firm & concrete.
Pay close attention to the loving guidance of your Angels. Notice how you feel with this guidance. True Angelic guidance will always feel comforting, loving, & gentle. You will always have a sense of forward movement in your life, that things are getting better in some way.
When you feel your experience is complete, simply open your eyes & continue with your day.

Angels Everywhere

There are an Infinite number of Angels everywhere in the universe. Most Angels are responsible for one task, such as helping you to find your keys. Some Angels, the Archangels, are assigned many tasks & can be many places at once helping millions of people.
The Angels can help you with things that you may deem unimportant but are significant to you. If finding a parking space close to the doors of the shopping center is an important accomplishment to you, it is important to the Angels.
Personally, I like for the roads to be clear of traffic when I come out of my subdivision & I want to turn left. Almost every morning, my Road Angels clear the way for me. I near my turn & put on my signal; pull up to the stop sign & stop to look right & left. Voila! The way is clear for me to make an immediate left turn. Thank you, Road Angels.
You can ask the Angels for all kinds of help that can make your life feel easier. Ask them to help you find your keys, your shoes, or how to put together a tasty dinner with what you have in the pantry. I even ask My Infinite Angels to help me with articles & what they want people to know about them.
They are your Infinite Angels, too & they are waiting to help. Find out how fun it can be to discover you have a team that is ready, willing, & able to assist you with your daily affairs.

Friends

It is nice to see old friends that you haven't seen in a while. I don't mean people you knew & were glad to not see for a time. I mean people who were meaningful to your life in some way; someone who was an important part of your journey through a troubling time or who shared a significant joy or accomplishment with you.
People come into our lives for a reason. We may glance at another person for a brief second, never to see them again. Within that moment may be a hundred-million meanings for you or the other person.
Every relationship is important. The most important relationship is the one you have with yourself. You are here, now, because you have a purpose in being here. You may not know what that is & you may never know until you have died & are in another realm. You may look into someone's eyes & change their life forever.
You are an angel on earth, a human angel. Also, you have Angels always with you guiding you on your journey. Sometimes they appear human & sometimes they actually are human.
If you are unsure or confused about your purpose, ask your Angels, Guardians, & Guides to help you. They will help you understand. They may guide you & you might need to trust their guidance until understanding is revealed to you. Their guidance is always good, kind, & full of love - never hurtful.
It can be helpful to you if you ask your Angels to be clear, understandable, & loud enough for you to hear them. Remember to say thank you & ask God to bless your Angelic helpers. They enjoy blessings, too.

Chop Wood, Carry Water

Many years ago, I learned of an ancient story about a teacher & a student. The student said, "Master, how do I reach enlightenment?" The master replied, "Chop wood, carry water."
The student then asked, "Master, what do I do after I have achieved enlightenment?"
"Chop wood, carry water," the master answered.
We are always striving for things to be better - prettier, costlier, more luxurious. Things do not change because we have reached some plateau of development. However, the point is that we change.
With experience & evolvement, we learn to handle things differently. The situation that made you angry in high school is one that you merely laugh at now. Of course, there may be different people, places, or things that rouse your anger & so what do you do? Chop wood, carry water. You learn to deal with those things in an evolved manner.
This does not mean that you allow an atrocity that you have the ability to prevent or watch on the sidelines while someone commits a crime. It means turning your experiences into wisdom by using your knowledge to choose the best course of action in any given moment. It means, rather than doing nothing, do whatever is best for the person, place, or thing in that particular situation at that time.
If you are unsure about what to do next, ask the Infinite Angels that surround you. Just say, "My Infinite Angels, help me."
They have always been with you & will always be with you to guard & protect you, to guide your actions in a good way, and to help you make loving choices.

Expectations

There is a paradox regarding expectations. You can expect a situation to turn out well, the way you want. This is called hope, but you may have a gut feeling - a knowing that things will not be the way you want at all.
You can expect something to turn out badly while knowing that it will actually be fine. This can be called hedging your bet.
So, what do you do? Do you plan for the worst & end up pleasantly surprised or do you fake it till you make it?
There is another choice. You could stay in the moment with no expectations. This takes some practice since we are trained to expect an outcome based upon previous experience. After all, this is the purpose of practice & training - to learn how to obtain a predictable result.
This is a wonderful thing when we are learning a skill & not so great if we would rather just enjoy ourselves.
The Angels can help you to stay in the moment, living your life to the fullest. Ask them to keep you in the moment, listening to your heartbeat & noticing your breath. Your Angels can remind you that each moment is new; each moment is unique. There are no ordinary moments because they are all filled with blessings, if you are paying attention.

Nature

Nature is an amazing Healer. Nature has intelligence that humans have tried to comprehend from the Dawn of Time.
When you are injured, get a cut on your arm for example, you do not need to think - my skin has just been cut, I should send some platelets to coagulate to form a scab so there is no infection. No; you do not need to do that because the natural intelligence of your body takes over & begins to repair your skin, muscle & whatever else it needs to do automatically.
Nature is good for your soul as well. Each day, you should spend some time outside. Even if it is only for a few moments, you should make it a point to connect with nature.
You can feel the Angelic Realm outside. Angels are everywhere, of course, but you can feel them especially outside in natural surroundings. You can hear Angels whisper to your intuition through the wind in the trees. You can see sparkles of Angel energy in the azure sky. You can smell the Angel's perfume in the aroma of fresh blooming flowers. You can feel Angel kisses in the sun's rays & in the drops of rain on your cheeks.
Make it a point to spend time out in nature each day, even for a few moments. Connect with the Angels to soothe your soul.

Distractions

It is often difficult to be in the moment when there is so much going on around us. It is difficult to keep connected with our inner power. Yet, that is where the true power is & where we must be to navigate through the amped-up energies of these days.
My beloved Elder/teacher, Shakmah Winddrum, says that everything around us is a distraction. Carefully consider that statement. "Everything around us is a distraction". And, ancient texts remind us that everything is an illusion. This is the same teaching.
I invite you to examine the distractions in your life. What is holding you back from fulfilling your dreams? What or who tells you lies that you are not good enough, rich enough, or smart enough?
Distractions, illusions, & lies. How can we deal with them?
Call upon the Angels. You may have a favourite angel such as Archangel Michael, Raphael, Uriel, or Gabriel that you call upon often. You may have a personal angel such as Angel Ibis or Blue Angel. You do not need to know an Angel's name for them to assist you. Just state your request & the perfect angel will be with you before you have finished asking!!
Please remember to express your gratitude for their loving service. This is as much for your benefit as it is a courtesy to the Angels!

Develop an Attitude of Gratitude

It is easy to be grateful when things are going well for you. These days, with unemployment in the double digits throughout most of States & considering the hardships people are facing in other countries, it can be difficult to find much for which to be thankful.
Let me help you a little. If you are reading this, be grateful for your eyes, your hands & fingers, & access to a computer or a friend sharing this with you.
You are breathing so say, "Thank you!" You woke up on the green side of the grass(even if you are in the desert) today, that's great! Even if you are in pain (if you are, I'm sorry & I pray the Angels give you peace & comfort), you can still be grateful for one more moment.
There is sky; there is air; there is sun; there is water. In the midst of horrible things going on around you, you can go into your heart, invite the Angels in & allow them to embrace you with love & affection.
This is an exercise I have practiced for years & it can get you looking forward to the day. When you wake up each morning, name 10 things for which you are grateful. You may come up with more than that, but at least 10 things.
Look for beauty; you will find it. Look for love; you will connect with it. See the beauty in all things & you will discover your attitude of gratitude.

Economy Increasing Stress?

The economy has been on a roller coaster for the past few years. It seems that just when we begin to recover, another issue shatters the peace and calm we have been building.
The cosmic energies have sped up, increased, and become increasingly noticeable. Many people do not realize it, but these energies are impacting us constantly just the same way we get a tan from the sun that is 93 million miles away.
We are feeling the impact of cosmic energy played out in our world economy, political conflict, and environmental issues. The fact that so many of us are not relating the "as above, so below" philosophy to the increasing stress we feel can cause confusion and frustration, exacerbating the anxiety we are experiencing.
The Angels are asking us to trust. They are available outside of time and space, so they are always ready and willing to assist us to calm our nerves and deal with any situation we are experiencing in the moment. According to cosmic law however, they need to have permission and we give them permission to help us when we ask. So, ask now. Just say, "Angels, help me!"
Allow the calm and peace of the Angels into your heart and your life.
