Archangel Michael Taking a Momentous Leap of Faith

Archangel Michael Taking a Momentous Leap of Faith

July 9, 2012 channeled by Sharon Taphorn


Dearly beloveds it is with great honour that I join with you this day. You are such brilliant sparks of light; it is a pleasure to sit in your energy, just as much as it is a pleasure for you to sit within our love. There is no greater honour than to be a human in lesson on the earth at this time. It is humbling to watch and assist in the transformation that is taking place in your time. We of the angel realm are so very honoured to be your assistants and servants of the light and to help you bring more light and love unto your world.

It is not always easy and we are with you in your darkest hours, holding you and loving you. When you feel that sense of despair and are discouraged from your path, it is in those times that you should call in your angels and ask them to help you find a better way. Share your heart with us as we do not judge, we only love you. These dark nights of the soul as you like to call them, are really a death, a letting go of an old, outdated you. Your thoughts, feelings and energy have changed so that the old you no longer fits. There are times when your entire life feels as if you have awakened in a different dimension and you don’t know how you fit in anymore, or sometimes some of you felt you never really did. Rest assured dear lightworker, you are not alone and there are many on the planet going through the same. We hear your cries and pleas, knowing you have done this before and wondering why you once again find yourself back in this same place. We ask you to see more and realise you are no longer in that place. This time you know you want something different or you would not be feeling such disillusionment and despair. It is time to release any unfulfilled expectations from the past and let go of any feelings of less than, as these hold you back from making the progress that you seek. We wish that we could show you how we see things from our side so you would know how truly right it all is, and if you find yourself somewhere feeling all alone and lost, this is the time for you to take the momentous leap of faith and trust that there are far better things that lay ahead for you than anything you have left behind. For you are still here, and there is more you want to do, that is how you know the best is yet to come. You say, but dear Michael, I have lost such great love, or wealth, or health, and I say to you, we know, we feel your plight, we want for you to understand that you will, and you want to grow beyond your current state for that we have given you nothing without your consent, co-operation, blessings and love. If you find yourself someplace that you no longer want to be, we are here for you and are indeed helping to light your way.

We tell you miracles occur every day on your planet and you say, but dear Michael, I have asked for you and god to fix my life, and we see nothing but more suffering and we say, “Look around for love, gratitude and blessings right there where you are where you see only pain and suffering. Look to see the ones that despite all olds, still know love and healing exist.” You do not need to be down on both knees before you stop and take the time to see the gift in where you are, and what is the best and highest way for you to complete this part of your journey. Possibilities increase as your trust and believe in alternatives. As well, detaching from the form of which they appear. Signs can come in many forms and we give to you the ones we think are best to guide you on your way. Perhaps you are drawn to a particular course of study or training, or an opportunity to pursue a hobby or a passion that feeds your heart in greater detail. The possibilities are limitless, so keep an open heart and mind. There just might be a particular person, experience or event that opens up new paths of thought and understanding for you now. Take these opportunities, even if the timing doesn’t feel quite right, and pursue the avenues that are available to you now. Trust that more will come to you as you progress along the way and it will indeed become so obvious, you will wonder how you could have been missing all the signs all this time.

We can offer you deep insight into understanding the what, where, why, how and, what was I thinking with humour and with love, which is how we suggest you always approach your journey – keeping this in mind. Each of you is a significant part of a greater whole and is just as important as any other light that is disguised as a physical being on your plane. Understand that each and every one of you is of equal importance in the scheme of the master plan and have a valuable contribution to make. You are no less important than any other being and we ask that you see yourself as a vital, quiet, modest being who knows your own worth and value. No one else needs to know this, for they will see and feel the changes that you make and then one day they will ask you for your magic secret. This is when it is your opportunity to synthesize all the awareness’s you have learned and kept in your store house of experiences for the moment to let your steps in mastery be your guide for others along the way. And step into the role of teacher at this time you will.

When you learn to trust your intuition and believe yourself powerful and worthy, that is when you begin to align yourself to the loving presence of the Divine that dwells within each and every one of you. When you believe in yourself and trust that you can accomplish your goals, you begin to see all the help that is available to you now and that you will indeed receive all help that you need. Listen to your body and your heart for they know what is right for you. If the thoughts energize you, pursue them, if they don’t, let them go. Ask yourself what is holding you back right now? It could be that you have a fear of failure or of success, that you do not trust yourself, or feel unworthy, whatever it might be. Rouse your spirit with your power to love and use that power to find your voice: ask your angels to be present in your life and know that you can achieve anything in your life if you set your mind and heart to it. Believe in yourself and trust that you can and will find a way.

Let your angels support you. Let us give you comfort and enable you to realise you hopes and your dreams. We can help you boost your positivity and change the circumstances in your life to better reflect the inner you and make the changes that you seek. Say out loud or to yourself, we prefer out loud as there is more conviction from your heart, the areas in your life where you feel you need support and then release the matter to your angels and trust that you will be helped and receive the answers that you seek. It is through trusting and unshakable belief; you can increase the flow of universal energy that is sent your way. Watch for signs of help from people, places and things. Be open to the possibilities and say thank you when you notice them along the way.

Let go of old ideas, feelings and situations that no longer serve your growth. These opportunities have helped you progress your life, even if you cannot see it yet. It is time to let them go so you can let the new energy enter and move forward with ease. Release, Release, Release. Shed your old skin and emerge from your cocoon . Sort out any area of your life that is holding you back or draining your energy as it is time to let them go. Let go of any painful thoughts or memories that allow for an old wound to fester and know that it is time to heal those wounds and let them be the catalyst that shifts the tides in your healing journey back to wholeness. The freedom that you seek is by releasing the ties that bind you to lower thoughts, objects and things. Imagine me cutting away the vines and ropes that bind you with my lightening sword of Truth and feel all the negative energy move away so that you are free to move forward with much more joy and ease. There might still be some constraints in your everyday life that are an essential part of your spiritual journey. We wish to remind you that you have a choice in how you act and respond. Make the choice to act from love instead of reacting from fear. Trust your intuition – the messages from your heart – and ask your angels to lend you courage to follow your heart, to break free from any imagined restrictions and to soar high, acting in love for both yourself and every other being of light that is flying with you, above you and beneath your wings. Choose to be free, choose to be your true self and soar.

Know that you are powerful and that this power lies within your spiritual awareness. It is within you to trust your inner wisdom, stand your ground when necessary and speak your truth from your heart always tempered with the energy of love. True power exists when it is used with the force of love. And, so we counsel you to use this power wisely. If you need to speak your truth, choose carefully the words so that they reflect your true spirit and the nature with which intent to impart this knowledge. Choose words that protect everyone involved and yet convey your messages with love, light, honour and respect, just as you too deserve mirrored back to you. There might be times when you are confronted by another human angel that seems to have no love or light in how they treat others. We ask you then to beam them love and know that they can never control or influence you without your consent or knowledge and you are safe and protected always by my light. Ask your angels to help you say no to anything that does not feel right to you and strength and courage to turn away. Act from your infinite self, in the highest light possible for you right now and for the greater good of all.

Know that you are protected by my angelic shield of light and that nothing or no one can ever truly harm you. If you feel vulnerable and need to shield yourself from negativity or negative energy from others, take the time to protect yourself in an orb of light cloaked by your angels to help you be more effective in your everyday life. We can help to safeguard your physical, emotional, mental and spiritual selves so that you feel your spirit is protected and you can do your spiritual work. Imagine yourself, or ask your angels and trust that it is so if you are not visual yet, to encircle you in an orb of light, wrap you in a cloak of light or place you in a bubble of light, it matters not which one you choose, it matters that only that it is symbolic to you. As with all your symbols and images, choose ones that empower you, and give you a sense of well-being. If it offers you power over instead of power with, then you know that it is energy of a time past and not of the highest light. Thank it for what it has given you and set it free. Then, choose a symbol that represents your true or authentic heart and assign it its new duties and responsibilities. Since colour is easy to visualize or understand, choose what they mean to you.
  • White light is associated with purity, protection and light. Ask yourself what you feel when you think of white light and let that be your guide when using a cloak or orb of white light.
  • A red light symbolizes to stop in your current world of time and space, and also represents the colour of your root chakra and your base needs. Red also helps you feel empowered and represent energy and fire in the practice of feng-shui . With so many choices, it is up to you to choose what it can represent at the moment you are invoking it as truly it is your intent, belief, and understanding that govern the results you will receive.
  • Red and blue together I use to represent my light, and together they make purple and offer you the gamut of my services when I encircle you in my light.
  • The healing light of Archangel Raphael is a brilliant shade of emerald green, yet can symbolize and ignite growth, therefore do not always stipulate how the healing should occur, let the natural wisdom of the universe and your angels to provide exactly what is needed to support that light and it will be so. Healers detach from the final outcome and know that every journey is honoured and is right, it is your responsibility to share love, share light and trust that there is always grander opportunities awaiting each ahead.
  • Gold is the light and love of the Creator Essences, the energy of god light in whatever form you choose. This can always be used if you are unsure what is best to do. Using Creator Love/Light is always beneficial for anyone and all. Offer no other agenda in your healing work than to spread thoughts of love and empowerment for all that you meet and you will truly be a messenger of Creator Love and Light and servant to all of humankind.
  • Blue, white and gold are colours often used by Archangel Gabriel and his league of helping angels to help you communicate more effectively and in love as this is the energy of which the strongest messages are conveyed and what the other bodies are attuned to the most.
  • Purple, red and gold represent Archangel Uriel’s light, and offer you enlightment, wisdom and knowledge of the most high. He is the keeper of hidden knowledge, who can reveal to you the mysteries of the Universe, along with Archangel Raziel, they will teach to you the magic of alchemy, the secrets of the Magi, to create in the classrooms of life. Ask for them to activate the love within you so that your soul can ascend to a higher level of being.

These are but a few tips and tools we share with you this day to help you with your journey, to help along the way. Know that not is always as it seems and trust only the energy that dwells within your heart of what is right and best for you and act from that infinite self in all that you do.
Say, “I am protected by the light, shield, sword and love of Archangel Michael and all the beloved angels of light, and nothing can harm me.”

Allow me to help you confidently share your presence and your light, knowing that you are strong, honest and true, that you are energized by the power of universal love, and seek just and fair actions and dealings with all others, especially yourself. Trust in your ability to have clear insight into all that you do and open yourself up to the flow of universal energy. Hold only that which is honest and true, and fill your heart, body and mind with feelings of passion for life itself, as you are completely supported by the universe. You are strengthen by the power of unlimited love and are free to be your true self. Believe in yourself and trust that you have the abilities, tools, time and money to create and accomplish all of your goals and as you align yourself with the loving presence of the Divine and become aware of the divine presence within you, and every living thing, that you are left with only the pure light of love to shine forth for all to see.

Ask for me to overlight you with my cloak of red and blue at any time on your journey that you need the energy of courage, protection, power, justice, release, insight and truth. I can reignite your passion for this journey, the flame of love that was once lit in your heart, and the strength and the spirit to see each part to its completion in the light of love it was offered, bringing the sun into your heart once more.

Beliefnet Angels ~ Ascension by Sharon Taphorn

Ascension

Sharon Taphorn explains the experience and symptoms of ascension.

BY: Sharon Taphorn

You are on a spiritual path.

Everyone and everything is on a spiritual . Just as the human has come to the earth reality to experience what it is like to live in a finite existence and not remember your true magnificence, so are all the weaves and experiences that exist with you like the insects, the animals, the plants and the trees. All are a significant part of this physical experience and you all together form the thoughts that create the vibration of mass consciousness in the Earth experience.

Some steps on the journey occur as life altering events, others may be smaller, simpler experiences. All are momentous; all are celebrated by your angels on this side of the veil. You are about to take a huge step upward in your spiritual journey as an individual, and as a species because enough of you are awakening to love. Make it your aim to bring awareness and love to all that you do. Trust that you are supported and guided and that you will know the next best step for you to take. You may not be able to see how the entire journey will unfold, but you will feel guided along the way, and truly it is about the journey, not the destination. If you did not want to experience it in its entirety, you would not have chosen to come to earth in the first place.

On the path of ascension you will find you are becoming more sensitive to the energies around you, including your angels....

“There are Far, Far better things ahead than any we leave behind.” - C.S. Lewis
You did not come forth to experience a journey filled with pain and heartache. Life is a celebration and is meant to be joyful, adventurous and even at times a bit daring. You came forth to flow and to love and to enjoy life. Perhaps that sounds a wee bit Polly-Anna or hippie like, however it is one of the main reasons you chose to do an earth journey......

Assignment Human Angel ~ To Everything there is a Season

Your mission…

Should you choose to Remember is…

As you begin a new cycle, which you frequently do, remember that new adventures signal a completion and therefore new growth, new opportunities and more. Welcome in the new and celebrate that which you have completed. Job well done and now it is time to move on!



We are always experiencing cycles, even if you have never really paid attention or gave it much thought. We are starting the 2nd half or 3rd quarter of the year. We are all in that cycle. Those of you born this month are in a new year, therefore entering a new cycle. Those of you born this month should be used to the change that cycles brings since we are a 7 - the number of transition, July babies should at the very least used to change, if not crave it. I am a July baby and would move my furniture once a week if it worked in other ways, I therefore use blankets and pillows on the furniture in different colours and themes to shake things up (and to keep the cat hair to a minimum lol).

It is natural for things to transitions as that is what happens when we are on an evolving planet in time and space. It is in resisting this natural flow that we create obstacles and drama's for ourselves. To everything there is a season. Keep this in mind as you contemplate a life review of where you have been, what needs to be let go and what you want to keep working on. We are nearing a mercury retrograde (which cycles through about 3 times a year) and that is the perfect time to take things a bit slower and look at how things are progressing with you hopes, dreams and desires. Also consider where you are in your year and how that works with where things are at. This helps you to see the growth you are actually making. The first time I took stock of my life I was actually astounded by what I had accomplished thus far with many pitfalls and hurdles along the way. That is when I began to see the gift and then look for it in other seeming adverse situations I find myself in. Take the time over the next few weeks to do a review. Keep a journal as these are great markers for yourself (as well as perhaps another great book), and make sure to date it. It is like writing in your book of life. Also journaling can help to open up your communication with your guides, angels and ancestors, as you are usually in an alpha state when you journal and that is the perfect mindset for communication. Do not judge yourself, love yourself through the process. We are all works in progress, or we would be done with the earth experience and go home.

Remember to be gentle with yourself. Make this a special time to look at your cycles and see which ones you are nearing completion and get ready to finish them off. Take the time to review and you will enter the next stage with much more focus and clarity, therefore creating what you desire easier, faster, and grander than you did before.

Love and infinite light, Sharon

To Everything There is a Season

To everything there is a season
A time for every purpose under Heaven

A time to be born
and a time to die
A time to plant
and a time to pluck what is planted

A time to kill
and a time to heal
A time to break down
and a time to build up

A time to cast away stones
and a time to gather stones
A time to embrace
and a time to refrain from embracing

A time to gain
and a time to lose
A time to keep
and a time to cast away

A time to tear
and a time to sew
A time to keep silence
and a time to speak

A time of love
and a time of hate
A time of war
and a time of peace
The lyrics are taken almost verbatim from the Book of Ecclesiastes, as found in the King James Version (1611) of the Bible (Ecclesiastes 3:1), though the sequence of the words was rearranged for the song. Ecclesiastes is traditionally ascribed to King Solomon *Wikipedia*

Sharon's Take July 2012 ~ The Inspired Warrior

As you seek to find balance over the next month, keep in mind that this balance brings with it opportunities to be in your truth and be who you are and also be in your passions. Own your power and know that it is safe for you to be powerful with love and compassion all at the same time. If you don't have a regular spiritual practice, begin it today, there is no time like the present. Keep your focus and don't let others distract you from your mission, the changes and creations you desire are very close indeed. Release the past. Release any regrets, any sadness, any anything that might be a block. See it's gift and move on for yourself and your own wellbeing. This action alone will create great waves of movement allowing the new energy that you so want to enter. The more trust you have to be guided, the more joy you will expereince as you life transitions over the next month.

Sometimes change doesn't always bring feelings of confidence, however as you begin to trust that you are supported and change only signals growth and new opportunities, you will soon know that much better things lie upon the road ahead. Trust that you have or will be divinely given the tools you need to move foward. Take a good look at what each path offers you at this time and what it brings to your life, and when you have weighted all the pros and cons, choose confidently and know that you have made your choices honourably and throughly and expect the best possible outcome for yourself. Enjoy the journey of discovery that you are on, and know that these changes are bringing you closer to your dreams and desires. If you should find doubt and other lower energies, immediatly transform them. Try to avoid the people in your life who don't feel like they are presently supporting you in your changes and trust that the right people who are supportive will come your way. Make no judgements about these situations, just bless them and move on.

Declutter your thoughts at this time, and do some mental housekeeping. Look at what thoughts you might be hanging onto that no longer fit who you have become. It is time for the world to see you in the light of truth and for you to stand fully in your power as the empowered lightworker that you. Don't take on responsibilities that you do not feel passionate about. While you might be good at many things, it serves your growth and the growth of others for you to set limits for yourself and to let them do their own journey, even if they don't fully appreciate your motives at this time. You have been shedding a lot of late and you may find you feel better when you are eating healthful, alive foods filled with life force energy and drink plenty of water. Make a committement to yourself to keep your meditation practice each day and spend time out of doors. This will help you in many ways and on all levels and it is what you deserve for yourself.

Take a much needed vacation. If you can't afford to physically get away from it all, take some time to explore where you are for a few days, go to the lake, the park or wherever you can get away from the phone, computer, and work. Make a point of giving yourself the gift of time out. It will do wonders to not only bring harmony and balance back to your life, it will help those around you. You are a far better world server when you are refreshed and rejuvinated. Do not let percieved stress and anxiety stand in your way. Do not let the thoughts and actions of others to knock you off balance as you are strong and have all the talents and skills you need to help you along the way. Trust in yourself and your ability to discern for yourself what feels right and what feels less than and release any thoughts of lower will.

This is an amazing time in your unfolding journey. Celebrate the changes and enjoy the evolutions that are before you. Support and love each other and let others know they are not alone. Reach out and touch the heart of someone you love and also someone you do not know, and if you are feeling particularly adventurous, someone you feel thoughts that are less than love for and transform them for your self. Keep preparing yourself for the shifts of transformation you are on and ride that wave!
