EARTH ANGELS

When you are born into this dimension, on this earth, the first thing you do is take a breath. You in-breathe life giving oxygen that is vital to your survival outside of your mother’s womb. Where do you think that comes from? Trees.

Trees are Earth Angels that, through photosynthesis – the interaction with the sun – convert the toxins dispelled from our bodies through exhaled breath into the very component that we need to survive – oxygen.

We can survive for weeks without food, for days with water, but only minutes without the life giving oxygen provided by these Earth Angels, trees.

Not only do they provide for our physical survival; they stand up tall to show us how to be emotionally stable, mentally honorable, and spiritually reaching toward heaven and all its goodness.

If humans were removed from the planet, it would only take 10 or 20 years for Mother Earth to restore herself to the pristine condition that is her divine right. Earth does not need humans; humans need their Mother Earth. And, trees are the skin and hair of Mother Earth. Trees are the Earth Angels that are the sentinels providing shelter and protection. They keep the soil/skin of the earth from eroding so that humans can grow food as well as being Wisdom Teachers for us. The Native Americans could tune-in to the knowledge of trees and plants for medicine long before the first pharmaceutical company had any thought of extracting chemicals from plants or moldy bread.

Here is a chant to honor Trees that is often sung in prayer circles:
Trees, trees, trees, all I ever dream is trees,
Pine, cedar, redwood, and hickory, let them all grow.


Native American chants are usually sung in four rounds to honor the four directions. Also, you can change the names of the trees to whatever you like such as:
Trees, trees, trees, all I ever dream is trees,
Birch, maple, poplar, and ironwood, let them all grow.


Honor the trees in your environment. Speak to them – out loud or in your heart. They have a divine intelligence and they can hear you just as clearly as your Guardian Angels or any of God’s Angels can. They will be thrilled just to have you acknowledge them. Do what you can to care for trees, perhaps just picking up any trash around them or in their branches.

They give their lives for us; there is no greater love.

Infinite Blessings from your Infinite Angels.

WE ARE ALL TOGETHER!

The Angels want me to tell you today that we are all together. What they mean is that we are not separated. The Angels are a part of God as we all are, as all of creation is – even as a grain of sand is a part of God.

As such, we are never separated. Just as all of your fingers are part of your hand and are included in and make up your whole hand, we and the Angels are part of and within God.

The reason that we feel separate is because we have free choice in this realm. We have, over many thousands of years lost the focus of our god consciousness, focusing instead upon material things, lack, and the differences in human personalities that cause feelings of estrangement and division.

When you call upon the Angels for assistance, they respond from within you as well as from without. You know this is true because sometimes, things do not change in your environment so much, but you feel different inside. The Angels' response to your request within your being, your physical / mental / emotional / spiritual body is the Angels activating within you. Your gratitude and acknowledgement of their presence within and surrounding you will increase your consciousness of the Angels and your experiences with them will keep becoming stronger and better.

Sometimes, the Angels may show themselves in the twilight of a rising or setting sun. Look to the South (not at the sun) and bring your focus closer to you rather than looking at the far-off clouds. As you look up into the sky, bring your focus to a range of 3-4 feet from you. You may see sparkles of light darting quickly around – so fast they resemble the brief illuminations of a Fourth of July sparkler. This may be the reason the Angels are called deva (pronounced day-va in Sanskrit), which means the shining ones!

When you activate your Angelic presence within, you too, will feel joy and shining.

Infinite Blessings from your Infinite Angels.

DIRECTIONS

As a modern society, we have lost our sense of direction. I do not mean that we are morally bankrupt, although that may be true in some cases. I mean that we are unfortunately unaware of the energies of directions, although there is a faint archaic reference in the story, The Wizard of Oz, in which the directions are aligned with specific ‘witches’.

Most churches of all denominations around the globe have their doors open in the east. If there is an altar, it too faces east. Ancient peoples and those indigenous peoples who are relatively unscathed by what we term “civilization” also face certain directions, drawing upon the qualities of the directions to enhance and fortify the intent of their prayers. This is something that I learned from my Beloved Elder, Shakmah Winddrum, many years ago.

It is an ancient belief that the four principal or chief Archangels: Raphael, Michael, Gabriel, and Uriel rule the four cardinal directions of east, west, north, and south.

Turn to Archangel Raphael in the east to enhance the qualities of illumination and enlightenment within you. All things begin in the east. The sun and moon rise in the east. Native Americans believe that the soul enters this dimension and becomes infused into the infant from the east direction. This is the direction of spring and new growth.

Archangel Michael rules the south. This is the direction of relationships and emotion. Michael offers comfort and consolation when we feel unsteady in our relationships. Michael is also the Protector Angel, providing defense and safeguard when we pay attention through our intuition and insights.

The west is ruled by Archangel Gabriel, the messenger. The west is the direction of rebirth in the sense that we can dissolve old patterns and habits that are no longer serving our highest benefit and develop or birth new, better ways of being. Gabriel is the Angel that told Mother Mary that she was pregnant with Yeshuah, who we know as Jesus. You can consult Gabriel when you want good, clear communication skills, or whenever you want to be a better messenger.

The qualities of wisdom and clarity are enhanced in the north, which is ruled by Archangel Uriel. These qualities are symbolized by crystal clear ice and pure, white snow. This does not mean that we need to be cold as ice to be clear, but with a warm heart and caring concern, we can learn to be clear within ourselves as we learn to have clarity with others.

Whatever direction you are facing at the moment, resolve every day to communicate with your beloved Angels who are always ready, willing, and able to guide and protect you.

Infinite Blessings from your Infinite Angels.

MEANING

Everything that happens in our life does so for a reason. Everything has meaning.

We may not want to think this is true. We may want to think that only good things that happen are gifts. The reality of life is that things happen that we approve of – that we like or enjoy. And, things also happen that we feel are hurtful, painful, or that we believe make us suffer.

The paradox is that, for some people, it is not suffering. We can observe two different people in the same condition and they will each handle the situation differently. One person can be devastated by a disease, divorce, or loss of a job or home. Another person can look at the loss or illness as a blessing; as a gift of a new and better relationship or as a way to live closer to nature.

The meaning that your life has is whatever you give it. Your life and your experiences are whatever you perceive them to be, for better or worse. If you assign a meaning of regret to an experience then, no matter what anyone else tries to tell you about your experience, it will always hold regret for you.

Here is the magic in that paradox: If you look for the good in every experience, you will always – I mean always – find it! Even if it is an experience that happened to you fifty years ago; you can go into the treasury bank of your memories, review the events or experience and create a new feeling for it. You can take an experience in which you may have felt devastated, and decide to feel differently.

For example, suppose you had a horrible experience as a child, perhaps you were made fun of or you got beaten up. You could decide to be sad about that or you could decide that it was an experience that made you stronger, made you a person of great strength and fortitude today. In other words, the experience was the fire that forged your personality and made you great. You can look at any situation of detriment in your life in this way. You can flip the coin of bad happenings in your life to reveal the silver linings.

Archangel Chamuel, the Finder Angel, can help you. Just ask, “Archangel Chamuel, please help me find a way to see unfortunate situations in a new way. Help me to see the true meaning of love and goodness in every experience of my life. Thank you!” Chamuel and all of your Infinite Angels are always around you to assist you with these wonderful changes.

Infinite Blessings from your Infinite Angels.
