The Equinox of Your Soul


A Message of Balance from Archangel Gabriel

Dear One,

This is a time for profound and very deep healing.  Just as the earth moves through the seasonal balancing point of Equinox, all of life strives to reach this place of perfect balance.  At the point of balance, the energy in the body aligns with the blueprint of Divine Perfection with which each soul has been blessed.  To be in harmony with your most authentic Divine self is to be in alignment with the place of balance that provides healing on all levels.  This is the true state of Oneness all souls are seeking, even though it may not be conscious.

Refined elements of healing are available to those who are led to a place where they desire balance in their lives.  It takes a surprising level of awareness in the western culture to even realize that balance is what one is seeking in life. Most of the ancient systems of healing understand this principle and teach many ways to reach the place of balance within the mind, emotional state and physical body. The gaining popularity of Yoga, Tai Chi, and Chi Kung are assisting many people to find balance and better health.  As all exists as one body, this balance will greatly assist the health of the Earth as well.

 The Need for Balance

Once the awareness of the need for balance becomes available to the mind, situations often arise in life to be a reminder of that which is missing.  It may appear that suddenly the mental and emotional state is out of one’s control, as if an old relation is jumping out from within the subconscious.  The child self may become more prominent to the great horror of the controlled adult.  Indeed many old patterns and parts of your inner self may be showing themselves to you now. Often your child or adolescent self has felt neglected or unloved in the past but now would like to be invited into your adult world to bring some fun and laughter.   Perhaps these aspects of the self are seeking harmony and balance with your responsible adult self who works so capably in the world. The joyous freedom of childlike wonder brings magic into an overly responsible adult life.  Creative projects, nature settings and other playful activities can help these parts of you to come into greater harmony and balance.  This healthy integration of your mental and emotional selves can bring greater happiness into your daily world.

As your soul seeks balance in life, your physical body can also demand attention.  Disharmony in the body manifests as acute or chronic imbalances requiring your immediate attention.  Most of the time, small signals from your inner self have been ignored and allowed to blossom until they must be addressed before dire consequences result.  To correct an imbalance in the human system, you may be taken to the proverbial edge of the precipice of life.  From there you are given an expansive vision of possibilities so you can make choices, consciously or unconsciously, that bring you to the still point of balance and oneness with your soul’s purpose.  There may be many probabilities for your future self, but it is at this turning point you can make the choice for your soul’s most optimum future.

As the planetary energies continue to shift, change and quicken, all life is being called to integrate these frequencies or perish in the process.  Many people will find it beyond their means to make the inner shifts necessary to find inner balance in this world.  There are many souls ready to complete this incarnation in order to choose another time more harmonious to their needs.  Those beings, making a choice to stay on earth through these times of transformation, will need to seek inner balance, as well as harmony with the shifts in seasons and vibrational frequencies of the planetary evolution now in progress.

You are a Beacon of Light

There are tremendous levels of support available for those who choose to stay on earth through this, often tumultuous, time as a Beacon of Light.  The invisible support of enlightened master teachers, the empowering presence of the Angels, and many beings from the starry realms are making their presence known in ways that range from the subtle to the miraculous.  Every synchronicity you notice in your life is a sign from those planes of existence beyond the human eye.  All manner of assistance is available to your beck and call.  Just remember that it is your frequency of resonant vibration that is the key to your level of attraction, because you attract into your life only that which is in your consciousness.

Alignment with your Divine Self is a demonstration of the balance and harmony within your being.  Seek out this balance on every level within your body, mind and emotional state in order to be receptive to the Divine assistance available to you now. Be willing to ask for the help you need in every area of your life.  Humility in action brings compassion to the self, that part of you who feels powerless in the face of life challenges that may seem overwhelming.  Stories abound of the many souls who felt beaten to their knees until they were willing to cry out for help.  This act opened the way, allowing the Divine to intervene in their lives.  It takes courage to recognize that a human being alone is powerless to make the great change necessary so that life comes into Divine Order and Balance, but as scriptures say, “with God all things are possible.”

Healing takes many forms, and one can never presume to know what is best for another person.  The Divine Spirit working within each being knows the truth of the soul’s path, and each one comes to a time of choice.  When you survey the possibilities of your life, what will you choose?  The next time you find yourself feeling powerless, beaten up by life and confused about your next step, consider all the help that may be waiting for you to ask.  Know that being open to Divine Assistance brings help in ways that may look different than you imagined.  Have the faith to believe you are being cared for in the way most appropriate for your soul’s growth.

This is a Turning Point

Imagine that you are on that figurative mountaintop, a turning point in your life.  You are so elevated, you can see the vastness of the world before you.  It is your time for choices.  There are Angels of Light all around you.  Your soul is calling out for inner balance and connection to that which you hold most dear.  As you surrender to the love your soul is offering, the Angels uplift you in their Wings of Light.  You are enfolded in the power of compassion, grace and mercy. Allow their loving presence to guide you through your next steps in life.  Ask for your true path into harmony and balance to be revealed, then humbly allow yourself be led by your soul and embraced by the Angels of Light.

It is time for all beings to find alignment with their Divine purpose.  When you seek a place of Harmony and Light within your being, the heavens rejoice, and your life becomes a reflection of that still point of Balance, the Equinox of your Soul.

And so it is.

Lessons from Archangel Gabriel about Spiritual Principles

From the beginning of our association in 1990, Archangel Gabriel spoke in terms of Spiritual Principles. They would all be in capital letters ~ words like Harmony, Peace, Beauty were characteristic of the principles that he would lay out for me and through his energy I would also be able to experience those qualities within. Once I was given the experience of that higher frequency of energy, I would be able to recreate the experience on my own as my body created a new template.

As we try to ride the big waves of energy in these accelerated times, this has become one of the most important of the teachings I received. When I don’t remember to hold my energy in a higher vibrational frequency, I get tumbled in the turbulent power of the white water I am surfing to the beach.

We are rapidly moving through the emotional 4th dimensional energies on the way into the energy frequencies connected to a new world that is becoming through 2012 and beyond. In the vibrational frequency of a 5th dimensional space, these Spiritual Principles become the operational essence of our lives. They carry spiritual consciousness and an empowered presence that is palpable when we allow ourselves to receive from this place. When you stop and breathe in the essence of Grace, a new resonance is set into your being. For instance, it is especially profound in this high-energy time to bring Grace into your solar plexus. The calming affect is important for your personal electrical system as well as your emotional state.

As the 3D world continues to destabilize and structures we have believed in disappear, when we concentrate our attention on the presence of these Spiritual Principles, they will become the new structure of our lives. If we allow it to occur we can use these tools to bring more balance to our emotional being and create greater stability in many areas of life. Spiritual Principles become a living force with the vitality necessary to act as a guidance system for our minds to follow.

A Simple Practice:

When I am caught in traffic becoming anxious, what can I do? What would be the spiritual quality I need the most at this time? A personal favorite, I ask for the soothing quality of Grace in my Solar Plexus (the area between my rib cage and my pelvis that houses my emotional reactions).

Who do I ask? When I put out a special plea for help, I believe it goes to the Universal Resources of Spirit who are Equal to Any Demand. Too expansive? In short, my Higher Self is the place that fields information for the good of my soul, whether it is going in or out.

So I breathe Grace from the Divine Presence into my being and allow myself to feel more calm and centered. Grace is a living frequency that acts on my nervous system and my consciousness. On a practical level, Grace can also inspire synchronous activity within me that allows me to move into a state where I can see creative solutions and intuitively make a turn or take an action that would assist my progress in that moment.

A meditation to bring Divine Grace into your solar plexus[A meditation to assist with bringing Divine Grace into your solar plexus is now available in the Resources Center here.]

That this is true in traffic is just a metaphor for my life right now. When I exist out of harmony with this living vibrational field of Grace and Well-being, there is a sense of frustration and lack. I begin to focus more and more on those lower vibrational qualities that I am now attracting into my energy field through the Law of Attraction. My world looks darker and I do not see opportunities. I feel stuck. When this happens now I know it is a sign for me – not a little stop sign, but a huge lighthouse in the middle of my path. This massive structure is making sure I STOP where I am going and regroup. I need to stop my forward motion and remember what vibration I would prefer to have in my world, and consciously call that energy into my being.

I ask for Clarity in my mind, Harmony and Alignment with my Source energy, and Peace in my heart. These are the qualities that will bring more Well-being into my life. When I focus on these spiritual principles, they become a living magnetic field of energy that attracts more of the same through the Law of Attraction. When I use this practice before it is an emergency, it becomes brilliantly graceful, especially as I remember when I invite the principles to also ask for Grace and Ease.

These are powerful spiritual tools that allow us to move into new 5th dimensional reality fields where we become the vibration on which we focus our attention. This Path of the Heart means there are no limitations to the abundant demonstrations we will receive from Pure Consciousness when we invite the gift of Spiritual Principles into our lives.

As Archangel Gabriel also says, And So it Is.

A Vessel of Peace

Dear Ones,

The past two weeks have been a powerful period of awakening. In the process you have been instrumental in creating a new template for Divine Love on the planet as well as assisting in bringing an immense download of this love and powerful light to create positive change on the Earth. Because Love will literally bring up all that is unlike itself within you, many are experiencing upheaval in their emotional states. In fact you may be noticing increased turmoil in many areas of your life.

There is a rewiring occurring in your nervous system. The evolved consciousness coming into manifestation on the Earth now is creating waves of emotional clearing. This can lead to volatility in those not adept at working on their emotional states with peaceful intentions. When you are feeling inner turmoil, consider the waves this creates around you in your energy field, like ripples on a pond. It is important that you deal with your emotions so you become a peaceful presence. This is part of your soul purpose at this time. You may be noticing how turmoil has escalated in more volatile arenas in the world. When you become aware of these situations, it is important that you take the time to send the power of your loving awareness into those areas. There are extensive networks of connection between minds and hearts everywhere. The web of existence is becoming more fortified. Your soul agreement requires you to anchor the light of peace for the Earth now. This does not take much time or energy, but does require your focus of intention to become a vessel for peace.

There are many ways you can create sacred actions that are in alignment with your soul purpose and with the promptings of your heart. There are light beings seeding creative solutions for a peace-filled world and offering spiritual practices that can assist the process of awakening. Incense and the burning of sacred herbs have been used for centuries to purify and cleanse energy fields. This ritual practice has been observed by indigenous peoples all over the world and was adopted by organized religion. Consider using variations of this process in a way that will remove any stubborn obstacles so more harmony exists in your relationships and those situations that have captured your focus of attention.

Imagine a beautiful vessel of crystal, shell, pottery or any attractive metal that inspires you. Your vessel holds the incense of pure love. Through your prayers you ignite this essence so it can open doorways and clear all energy fields of disharmony. Your vessel of peace is in keeping with the ancient tradition of burning sacred herbs for purification. This incense of new life, peace and harmony holds Divinity. Your clear intent can send it where it is most needed.

Imagination is a key component in the activation process inherent in the awakening of consciousness on Earth. Whatever you hold as clear vision can have a powerful affect on the focal point of your thoughts. As you hold your vessel containing the purifying smoke of peaceful awareness, first use it to clear your energy field of any disharmonious thoughts and feelings. You begin by creating a pure heart and mind in yourself before you continue with any outer work. As you light the sacred herbs in fact or symbolically,  you ask that the smoke clear away all obstacles to peaceful co-existence within you. After you feel clear in your mind, heart and solar plexus, you can send this powerful purifying smoke across the web of space and time to clear the energy between you and another person or you and those living in an area that causes unrest in your thoughts and feelings. When you send this cleansing energy on the sacred smoke so it will remove all obstacles that interfere with Peace and Harmony.

Sacred herbs have been burned in shells, sacred vessels, on rocks and in many forms. The smoke from these herbs is beheld as sacred and has been used for cleansing and purification for centuries. When you carry on this tradition of clearing fields of energy, you are bringing more peace into your personal world and on to the planet. You can literally burn sage, cedar, sandalwood and other plants that are held in a sacred manner. You can use pure aromatherapy in a spray or a burner with intention for the purpose of clearing and purification of energy fields. Some feel they cannot use smoke or actual scents in their ritual for whatever reason. If this is true you can become adept at sending energy with your prayers and intention to clear obstacles in the way of harmony within a space or relationship. This ritual can become a powerful symbolic act that will bring you the blessing you seek and will strengthen the template of Divine Love on the planet.

Be the one who carries out the sacred acts and bring blessings into the world. Much can be learned in the new times when we honor the sacred ways from ancient traditions seeking to bring more harmony and sanctity to life. When we add our prayers and connection with the Archangels and masters from the earth and the stars, true power and awakening is the result.

Here is a prayer that may assist you:

Divine Presence,

Into the sacred vessel of my heart, I create an offering for the purification and clearing of the energy and web-like existence within and around me. I clear any disharmony from my energy field, from my thoughts, and from my heart. As I hold a relationship or situation in my awareness, I ask that I be free of any negativity, and bring an open heart and mind into this moment. In that way I know I will be open to harmony, new ideas and creative solutions. I ask for Divine Light to open the way to new life, more love, and peace within me as well as on the Earth.

For all these blessings, I am grateful and so it is.

May all your actions be inspired by the sacred vessel within your heart and inspire Love and Peace in your world.

A Shared Practice for the 9 Days of Awakening Light

For centuries spiritual masters have recommended a daily practice to strengthen your connection to the Divine, as well as to achieve certain goals such as spiritual awakening. For the next nine days from August 11 to August 20, we have been told that there is an opening for Spontaneous Awakening on the planet. We know that by working together in a shared vision we can achieve the Peace and Harmony in which billions of people all over the world would choose to live. People have been asking what we can do together throughout these powerful days of Light. The following suggestions are ways that we could share a vision and create a sacred practice, inviting more Divine Light and Love into our personal lives and into the world.

Archangel Gabriel has said many times that the vision of the Earth surrounded by Rainbow Light is a very powerful image that can act as a catalyst for Divine Shifts in Consciousness. Many have spoken about the power of a Rainbow Bridge between dimensions to link humans with the Angelic Realms and the Ascended Masters. The following suggestions use time tested practices such as conscious breath, prayer and ritual in order to engage our collective spirits and offer a way we can work together for the next 9 days to become the change we want to see happen. In India a specific and directed program for a particular goal done as a spiritual practice is called an “Anusthan.” We are offering this anusthan as something we can do together for 9 days to Spontaneously Awaken Peace and Harmony Within all Hearts on the Earth.

The Anusthan

1. Create a special place for your altar to be placed. Make sure it is clean and uncluttered, as sacred as you can. It does not need to be fancy but it does need to be as beautiful and precious as you can make it. Often the simplicity of a piece of polished wood or a beautiful cloth over a box will make an altar that is meaningful to you.

2. Have a white candle symbolizing Divine Light on your altar. You can also have flowers, crystals, meaningful pictures, or anything else that engages your spirit.

3. Every day, as close to the same time as possible, sit in front of your altar and light this white candle symbolizing the Light of Peace and Harmony in the world. As you do this, you can use the following prayer to invite the spiritual realms to work for the sanctity of the Earth.

The Invocation

We call on the Angelic Dimensions, the Ascended Masters, the Beings of the Earth and the Starry Realms who hold the light of sacredness for the Earth to be present during this dedicated time today.

We are asking that the Earth be restored to its original Blue Print of Perfection. We ask that the hearts of all beings be blessed with the greatest power of Divine Love that has ever filled the earth. We invite Divine Light to create a spontaneous evolution of consciousness within each person on the Earth so that Divine Love prevails and a Beautiful, Peace-filled planet is the result.  

May all beings live in Harmony, Peace and Love.  May all feel the blessings of Divine Light within their hearts, and may the Earth be empowered by Divine Grace.

We give thanks knowing that it is so. So be it. And so it is.

The Meditation

Sit in a receptive state of mind and heart. Visualize a green and verdant Earth thriving as it is surrounded by Rainbows of Divine Light. Know with every fiber of your being that Peace and Harmony on all the Earth is your Divine Birthright. Know that there is enough water, food, shelter, energy and all else needed for a vibrant, healthy and thriving world.

See the beautiful Earth surrounded in a Rainbow Bridge. Imagine that on this bridge there are millions of people who want Peace and Harmony in their lives. We are all holding hands in a joy-filled union. There are so many of us we completely surround the Earth with our Love.

Affirmation and Breath Practice

Do the following practice at least 12 times each day. You can say the affirmation out loud, to yourself or write it. These words can be said in any language you feel most comfortable using. The breath practice is very good for raising vibrational frequency so you are more in tune with your higher self. The total time for each segment of the breath is about 3 counts but can be adjusted to what works best for you.

The affirmation that we will be saying together every day for 9 days is:

I AM One with the Hearts of Millions of Beings Gathered in Peace and Harmony on the Rainbow Bridge Surrounding the Earth.

On your in breath say:  I AM ONE WITH THE HEARTS

Hold your breath lightly and say: OF MILLIONS OF BEINGS GATHERED

On your out breath say: IN PEACE AND HARMONY ON THE

Hold your breath out and say: RAINBOW BRIDGE SURROUNDING THE EARTH.

After this practice, sit and breathe normally visualizing the beauty and harmony of a peaceful world. Know to the depths of your being that

All your Needs are Met with Grace and Ease and You are Cared for Eternally.

And so it is.

Please share this freely.

I just found this on another site:

http://www.facebook.com/pages/Rainbow-Bridge-Society-for-the-Activation-of-the-Noosphere

Since the Winter Solstice in 2011 people in 90 countries have been focusing on a mass visualization to synchronize with the 2012 harmonization vibe. They have been visualizing a Rainbow bridge around the global Planet Earth.
As 2012 and Mayan Calendar expert Eden Sky explains on the 13moon website.

“The intention of this collective visualization is for our global community to open ourselves to new positive realities for our Planet, and open ourselves to unify our hearts and minds with each other, and with the Mind of Earth, so that we may work as One for the highest good of the Whole of Life. The Rainbow invokes the full spectrum of light/information to illuminate our shared journey, and its imagery conjures possibility, magic, and divine benevolence.”
She goes on to say that, “It is called a “Rainbow Bridge” because it is understood as bridging the Aurorea Borealis lights from the North Pole with the Aurora Australis lights of the South Pole, encircling the Earth as a “World Protection Belt.” These charged particles that generate the Auroras originate in the magnetosphere and solar wind and, on Earth, are directed by the Earth’s magnetic field into the atmosphere.”
This is one of the most beautiful sights and it is around the Earth as we speak, most of us just never think about it. It is something to take wonder of and share with everyone in the world.

If there is magic in the universe, the Rainbow Bridge is an example
