The Art of Empowered Intentions by Shanta Gabriel

Aurora in Norway, January 20, 2012

There are moments in our lives when declaring our intention becomes very important. It is different than reciting our material goals. Our intentions draw to us the qualities we want manifested in our lives. It has been said that we can know our intentions by the results we see around us. The power of intention works whether it is conscious or not. During this time of accelerated growth during 2012 and beyond, making a conscious statement about what qualities we are choosing for our lives becomes paramount.

Once we make a statement of Intention to the Universe, this clarity of focus is released. It begins to work in the energy around us and manifest directly in our world by the Law of Attraction. An intention is the arrow sent directly to the Creator of our lives. When we make the statement, it is doing our part by pulling back the string of the bow and releasing our arrow to manifest the creative solutions we desire.

Never before has there been a time when the Power of Intention is so strong. Be direct and clear about what you want in your world. If there are material needs, know what qualities these will bring to you, and start asking for those qualities directly. For instance, if you want more money, consider asking for the qualities of stability and material security. Know that all your needs are met with grace and ease. Make your statements from a higher perspective, calling in those qualities you want and being clear what you are willing to give back.

Do not forget the grace that comes with gratitude. An attitude of gratitude is the quickest way to lift our spirits by increasing the frequency of vibration within and around us.

Intentions can be stated in many forms. Usually I consider it more workable to make your intentional statements in broader terms rather than being focused on form. We don’t want to limit the good the Universe is offering to us. I believe something greater than we imagine is available to us, so I use statements such as:

My work totally supports me on all levels. I work with Joy and Ease, and love the Creative Flow that inspires me. I am grateful that my God-given talents and abilities are being used to enrich my life and bless the world.

I was first introduced to affirmations in 1974. They are very valuable to use when the mind is stuck in negativity, so you can focus on what you really do want. Intentional statements can be used as a mantra to give your mind something positive to focus on. In the Eastern traditions the use of mantra is very valuable for this very reason. When Gandhi was killed his last words were the name of God in the form of Rama. He had been using that mantra his whole life so it became so ingrained that at the moment of death he could remember to say God’s name. In India this is considered a very auspicious action.

Because the energy frequencies have intensified, your mind has also increased in activity. It is very powerful to refocus it on what your really want to experience in life. The man who gave me this mantra was over 90, his face was glowing and he had no wrinkles. I decided I wanted whatever he had. Even though it has been over 30 years, I can still remember my first affirmation and pull it into consciousness when needed.

Living in God’s Will my life is filled with Harmony and Serenity, Love and Peace, Joy and Laughter, Health and Well-being, Truth and Success. My life is beautiful. I feel wonderful. All is progression. I look for good in every one and everything.

We can make our intentions from a prayerful state. We can offer intentions as affirmations. We can ask directly for the qualities we want to have manifest in our lives. We can also make intentions from a place of gratitude as if they were already accomplished. Perhaps you might even like to make a covenant with God.

Here is an example of a covenant I made in the 1980s:

I dedicate my life to planetary healing, to bringing more Light and Peace to the world, and to serve God through serving others. I ask to live my life in Love, Joy, Beauty, Peace and Abundance. I give thanks for the Wisdom, Guidance and Love that continually lights the path to my greater good. And so it is.

This is an intention I made this morning:

I give thanks for Union within me with all aspects of myself. As I love and accept myself, I know I attract greater levels of Love and Support in all my relationships.

One of my friends who has taken classes with me for a number of years, has her intentions honed to a science. I am sharing a few with you:

I feel safe and comfortable in every aspect of my life and on all levels (physical, emotional, mental and spiritual).

I feel balanced, clear and connected to the Divine at all times.

Creative Solutions are readily and easily available to me at all times, and are easy to implement quickly.

My home is neat, clean, comfortable and inviting.

With a bit of creativity, I am sure you will be able to open deeply and allow the desires of your heart to inspire your most powerful intentions. Ask for assistance with this and all the forces of the Universe align themselves behind you.

Tool for Transformation: Angelic Alignment Practice

By Shanta Gabriel

In the coming years Divine Light will be the most graceful and powerful tool for Transformation. What better way to eliminate darkness in every corner of your life than to fill it with Light?

Divine Light carries the Intelligence of God as well as Divine Love. It knows where to go and what to do for your Highest Good. The first thing you can do in every challenging situation is to bring Light into it to create positive change.

Chakra AlignmentOne of the most transformative tools I have been given in my 40 years of spiritual practice is the Angelic Alignment. Archangel Gabriel gave it to me in 1990 to help me cultivate receptivity and to gain access to the practical, inspired wisdom he was offering me. I have been doing this exercise nearly every day for over 20 years, and it has become a powerful way to become centered and connected.

When you create an Alignment through your being with the Highest Source of Light there is, you positively affect each chakra. Every cell of your body and your energy field is filled and cleared with Divine Light. Your vibrational frequency is raised.

As you ground Divine Light into the Earth, you become a sacred bridge from Heaven to Earth. This activity blesses the planet with Divine Light and creates more respect and sanctity within and upon the Earth.

It takes very little time in your busy life to create this powerful Alignment within your being that brings so much positive, grace filled energy into your life. With the power of your intention and this sacred ritual you can bless the Earth with the transformative presence of Divine Light to bring Peace and Harmony to the planet.

“Ten years ago I took your class and learned the Angelic Alignment. Ever since then I have been doing this process every day before I get out of bed. It is one of the most powerful things I ever learned. Thank you.” –A yoga teacher in Michigan

In this video, I narrate the beautiful, powerful alignment from Archangel Gabriel.

2012 – A New Evolution of Consciousness

Starfield.Diamond doorway through Space

 

People of the world, unite in Divine Love, and let your hearts sing together in the Light of true Peace.

The now infamous year of 2012 allows you many new opportunities to be what you came on earth to be. The responsibility you hold as Light Workers means that you are here to bring more Light through you to the Earth, and ground the evolutionary frequencies. Your willingness to work with Divine Light has been one of the powerful ways this new consciousness has been born onto the planet.

The new higher frequencies you carry are transforming your very being. As you allow these Spirals of Light-filled Consciousness to be integrated within you a newborn, complete 12 Chakra system is created for your evolution. These energy frequencies radiate through you and out to the planet. Through your agreement to carry new frequencies of Divine Light, you are literally changing the world.

So many are asking, “what is my Soul’s purpose?” We must answer; you are here to hold new frequencies of Light and to anchor them into the Earth. As you do this all, including the Earth, will evolve. This allows the particular form of your purpose to manifest in a more fertile environment in which you can work. Know that you are not limited in this process. Your declaration of intention will create the hookups necessary with the forces of Light working through you. In the meantime, dedicate yourself to creating alignment with the new elevation of your chakra system so you can ground and embody the manifestation of these energy frequencies in the world.

The support systems becoming available through this new evolution of energy systems are magnificent. As close as your thoughts, as near as your breath, you are interacting with higher frequencies of Intelligence and Love. The Christ Light shines as a brilliant Star of Consciousness that can be invited through your energy centers. Allow your very personal energy system to be lit up by this star. Through you this Divine Consciousness can be anchored into the Soul of the Earth, the deep and vital connection with your new 1st chakra. Know that it is safe to carry these frequencies of Light. Your energy system is evolving to allow you to use this awareness.

Bless all the Situations Within and Around You with Divine Light

Confusion and chaos around you may seem more intense. The truth of what it means to have an evolution of consciousness becomes more clear when fear is released and you allow yourself to stay in the present moment. Within the power of the Now you are cared for completely. You can trust that the consciousness you carry within your energy fields attracts the same to you in the future. Bringing Light into your present moment and staying in touch with your inner guidance system inspires heart-centered action moment to moment. Your clarity about the world you intend to inhabit and your intention for bringing more Light into every situation provide the keys to connection with this heightened guidance system.

You will be working with all the spiritual tools you have ever been given, and plenty of new ones, as the year evolves. Know that the years that follow 2012 are equally important. The shift in consciousness will not stop at the end of this famous year. After the upheaval and change in systems on a personal inner level, the physical plane must reflect the change in consciousness. This usually takes a longer period as new structures are put into place. That is why your grounded awareness and commitment to embody the new light frequencies becomes an important focal point of this new time. You cannot force things to happen. It is a lesson for you in allowing the creation of your highest intention to evolve in more beneficial ways than you can imagine.

But it will not be done for you. You are the ones who create the new world by your willingness to hold the new frequencies of Light, Divine Love and Universal Awareness. When you take it a step at a time, it will not be overwhelming. One more important thing for you to remember is, there has never been a time when you have so much Divine assistance as you have now and throughout 2012. Miracles occur when the Forces of Light are invited to assist the process.

Here is a prayerful suggestion for you:

Divine Presence, God, Goddess, All That Is,

Surround me with the Light of your protection. Fill me with the Light of your Love. Let this Light align my being with Divine Intelligence. Allow my body to receive and gracefully integrate these frequencies to assist my spiritual evolution. As I embody these new energy frequencies, I ask to be a grounded presence that anchors Light and Love. Let me be a blessing to assist the earth in receiving the respect and sanctity she deserves.

May all beings find Love in their hearts and allow Divine Love to motivate their actions. May Peace prevail within all people and all communities. And may the world leaders receive the Grace of Divine Intelligence and bless the world with their Peace-filled presence. May we always live in Harmony with each other and with the Earth.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.  So be it. Be it so. Amen

People of the world, unite in Divine Love. May 2012 to be a year for a spontaneous evolution of consciousness that allows the Earth and all beings to thrive.

And so it is.

What does 2012 hold for you?

If so, you are invited to join Shanta Gabriel in a seven-week teleconference, “Evolution of Consciousness for 2012.” We are now ready to put our time into Grace-filled action for 2012 and beyond. January 25 – March 7. Registration is open throughout the teleconference. Learn more here.

This is the time to let go of fear and reach your hand forward, to be held and led by the Angels of Light.


Dear One,

When you resolve to let go of fear, an amazing energy is set into motion.  It is as though hands of Angels join together in circles of light around you, keeping you protected and nurtured.  When you walk, you are carried by these Angels “lest you strike your foot against a stone,” as is said in Psalm 91.

Sometimes letting go of fear can feel as though you are walking off a cliff.  It is often necessary to take this large step in order to make the greatest progress in your life.  When your intention is to serve the Highest Good in all you do, and when you have the willingness to move through your fear of the unknown, this step off a cliff will be into the arms of these magnificent beings of light.  Angels will assist you to fly to the heights of grandeur and to the depths of peace.

The saying “there is nothing to fear but fear itself” is true.  Fear can play in your imagination until you are immobilized.  From this place you can easily sink into the pits of despair.  It will feel as though you are not moving toward your destiny, and that is the most fear-filled place of all.  This fear will play upon your issues of worthiness, because in your heart you want most of all to add value to the world.

Know truly that you were created to be happy.  Feeling joy is one of the greatest tasks you have in your life.  You are here to do great things, and this can be as simple as loving others and bringing more peace and joy to the world.  When you have joy as your intention, you will be shown what you have to do.

Practice

Take some time to sit quietly and breathe in a balanced way.  Imagine that you are standing on a mountain top.  It is the highest peak around you.  It is so high that eagles are flying below where you are standing.  There is a magnificent sunrise lighting up the sky and surrounding your body with golden light.

From this pinnacle of light, you offer yourself to serve God in the world and you ask for courage to do whatever it takes.  Call on the Angels for assistance to be all you can be.  At this moment you hear the sound of wings and you notice the light becoming even brighter.  You are surrounded by Angels and you feel your fear melting with their love.  They are holding out their hands to you.  It is such a reach to touch them, it is difficult to keep your footing.  In order to touch the hands of the Angels, you know you are going to have to take a step off the cliff.  You feel all the old fears beginning to surface again.  This time, you will not give in to fear.  Your conviction to have love and joy in your life and to serve in the world is greater than the fear.  You take a deep breath, and look into the eyes of the Angels surrounding you.  You see a hand of light reaching toward you and a beaming presence of love smiling at you.  The Angels are saying they believe in you, they love you, and know you can do whatever you want.  In this moment you know that the safety of that which is familiar cannot bring you the joy and the power of love you are feeling from the Angels.  Looking at the hands being offered, you let the love you are feeling in your heart uplift you, and you reach your own hands toward the Angels of Light.  You take the first step.

In this moment of free fall, your heart begins to pound.  But it is only an instant before arms hold you and you feel yourself being transported into the light.  The Angels are taking you with them. Let yourself imagine what it would be like to fly with the Angels.  Feel the warmth of the sun, the wind in your hair and let yourself be held and led where they will take you.  Know in your heart it is to your greatest good.  Allow yourself to fly with the Angels.  Feel the freedom that is there for you and let Divine love fill your heart.

Take a look at where you are held back by fear, and see the darkness there.  Are you willing to have it be different now?  There is help for you.  Angelic assistance is available.  This simple visualization exercise can have miraculous results.  It is your choice to take the first step by being willing to have a miracle change your life.

It is time for you to decide.  Do you want to serve God and let the Angels help you fly?  Are you willing to have miracles and joy fill your life?  Do you believe miracles are possible and Angels exist?  If your answer is yes – know that…

#6 ~ The Gabriel Messages, This is the time to let go of fear and reach their hand forward to be held and led by the Angels of Light.
