Messages From Archangel Gabriel

Here is a question I received this morning on my email. It seemed so relevant that I thought I would post my answer.

“I was hoping I would be in Nirvana today. Nothing happened here today. Was there anything going on where you live? I felt frustrated and let down I was looking forward to feeling differently and very excited. Can you shed any light on what didn’t Happen today Shanta?”

My experience on Monday, December 12, was that lots happened for me. I listened to my own 12:12 meditation twice, and felt moved deeply each time. I did not have a big expectation about the day, although I knew it would be a turning point for our lives. My understanding of the experience is that it is a process that began at the 12:12 and will continue through all next year until 12:12:12.

I have a long history of feeling let down. I have attended many spiritual events and workshops that promised to change my life. I would get very excited, only to feel a letdown and disappointment after each one was over. One of the things that I have seen with my having big expectations is that I will always feel disappointed. Yet over time, it is very obvious that all those events have brought a profound change to my life. And much of what I was taught needed to be brought into a daily practice that allowed me to continue the process in purposeful action.

The prayers I have said and the intentions I brought to my life have also set a course that has allowed a beautiful unfolding, as well as many bumpy times over the years. I can be 66 years old now and look to see how everything that I experienced has been important for my highest soul’s growth in this lifetime. What I have also learned is that it is moving much faster now than ever before!

Archangel Gabriel has been beneficial in my understanding by helping me to calm my emotions so I can be more receptive to the flow of good from Source energy. Receptivity is so essential, and the best way to do that is to take time to find my center and breathe. By being as peaceful as I can, it ALLOWS the energy to work in my life in the most beneficial way.

We are in the process of evolution and the ascension means we are taking our bodies with us. As the physical is the grossest level of manifestation, it takes the longest time. We magnetize to us that which is in our consciousness. When we believe that all is in Divine Order, we are calmly receptive and allow the energy to transform. We begin to see the subtle changes occurring around us in miraculous ways.

It also means paying attention each day to our thoughts and attitudes and bringing Divine Light through us into the Earth. I feel that it is important to be connecting to as much Divine Love in our hearts as we can and radiate this love into the world to change ourselves as well as the consciousness of the Earth. It is called a “Spiritual Practice.”

These times in which we are living are asking us to use all of our spiritual tools to live lives with heart-centered awareness. As important as it is to have peaceful alone time, often it is important to interact with others in order to feel supported in this process of growth. There are millions of people now that are working to bring more light to the planet and be more loving, responsible humans.

When I have an experience of talking with another person who is going through a similar situation or is having fears and symptoms similar to mine, it allows me to lighten up. I can gain a much more expanded perspective when I am not taking it all personally. Working with others helps us all to feel loved and supported in the new energy on earth.

One of my favorite affirmations in life has been, “I now allow others to love and support me.” Try saying that 21 times a day for 21 days, and see what changes in your life.

Although I believe in Spontaneous Evolution and the Hundredth Monkey Affect, it has not happened as quickly as I had hoped …. YET! But the process is working very well and it is in Divine Timing.

Before I received that question this morning, it seems synchronous that I pulled a card from The Gabriel Messages that said: “Without Patience you will never understand the meaning of Divine Timing.” There is a post on this site that expands on that message, if you would like to see it.

As a friend of mine says of this time, All is well, all shall be well and all is as it should be in Divine Perfection.

Many blessings to you, Shanta

The Release of Fear is a Small Price to Pay for the Ecstasy of Full Merging with the Divine

Dear One,

Having come to a time of decision, you feel it is important to make the best one.  You know that what you decide will carry on and you are concerned and even fearful of the “what ifs.”  The only way you can truly make decisions that will best serve you now and in your future is to come to a place of peace and calm within.  And this means being in harmony with your Higher Self.

It is from this place that you will make decisions that are for the highest good of all concerned.  When you bring fear into your decision-making process it limits you by preventing the full expansiveness of the Divine Mind from working within your conscious mind.  It is this merging with God which enables you to feel free, whole and open enough to receive that which is right and true for your life at this time.

No matter how difficult it seems, it is very important that you learn to release the fear that constricts your thinking and actions.  Where you attention goes, energy flows.  When you focus on the fears, problems and the “what ifs” of your future life, this focused energy magnifies your fearful state.  It becomes ever more powerful and can even take over your world-if you allow it to do so.  Instead, put your energy into the creation of that wondrous state of being that will best serve you.

The first step in doing this is to breathe deeply and know in your heart that you are being divinely guided at this moment and at every moment in your life.  Prayer is also helpful in adjusting your attitude and opening yourself to truth.  You can say, “I surrender this fear to God, and I allow the One Mind to work in all my decisions.”  Even if you still have the feeling of fear in the pit of your stomach, the simple act of praying for release will start you on the path to right decision-making, and will open you to your highest good.  Yet often it takes a short while for the physical body to catch up with the mental processes, so it is important to give yourself sufficient time to come to a point of relaxation and expansion before actually making your decisions.

Practice

Take several relaxing, balanced breaths.  As you sit in this peaceful moment, allow your exhaled breath to drop heavily like a stone from the base of your spine down into the depths of the earth.  This will take the frantic energy from your mind and give you greater clarity.

As you inhale see yourself expanding with the pure light of God.  See it clearing your mind and calming your heart as you connect with your divine nature.  Now replace the fearful thoughts that so pervade your worldly consciousness with images of what you really want in your personal and professional life – images of radiant health, harmony in relationships, abundant cash flow, peace within your own heart.  Allow these images of your greater good to permeate your being.  Then give thanks for receiving them into your life.

Because you have been trained to be fearful and to worry, even though it is not productive, it takes practice to release the fear and to merge with your true divine nature.  The Angels are here to help you do this, enfolding you in wings of pure light and guiding your way to peaceful living.

So ask and you will receive.  Allow yourself to be open to the Divine Good, and to be receptive to all the beauty and truth within and around you, so that this good can begin to manifest and work though out your world.  If the bounty of the universe is what you want in your life, all you have to do is to let go of the fear that limits you, and allow the grace of God to work for you.  After all,

The release of fear is a small price to pay for the ecstasy of full merging with the Divine.

How to plant the Garden of your Soul

Since every new project requires some thought and planning, when you begin your inner garden, make it creative and fun. It could be a beautiful work of art with lots of color, magazine pictures or a painting. The shape your interior garden takes could be a pattern that inspires you. You may even decide just to make a list of those qualities of consciousness you want to experience in your life. The action of writing will assist the energy of your garden. The Angels of Creativity are available to work with you in this project, and can inspire you so it will be fun.  When your inner spirit is stimulated in this way, new life flows into your mind and heart, and you feel uplifted. This increased energy flow attracts more joy and you feel happier, which in turn, brings more creative ideas and a sense of wellbeing.  It is the beginning of an upward spiral that blesses this garden within you with new empowered energy.

When you see old patterns of thought and action manifesting, and you begin to feel stuck in problematic energies, consider them to be compost for your new garden. Ask the Angels working in your life to help you pull these weeds and transmute old ways of behavior with Divine Light. This will help feed the garden of your soul with loving energy. It is like adding a little water every day to help work the compost of old ways into the fertile soil of your garden. Soon you will see the new sprouts of a different way of being. Rejoice in this vibrant growth knowing that as you respond differently to old situations, you will receive fresh, positive results in every area of your life. By focusing a little bit every day on what you want to see manifest in your life, you provide a new structure so your interior garden will thrive.
