Sharon's Take for January 2015 ~ A Year of Possibilities

As the new year begins I reflect back with a sense of awe as well as a sense of great change. So many changes happened that it actually astounds me as I think about them all. 

This year brought a new puppy with all its changes and what a gift, 2 new jobs as well as some wonderful reunions with spiritual family for the first time this life time and watching this all unfold in a most fascinating way to ending my radio show for a while. It has been 6.5 years of doing at least one show, sometimes 3 shows a week and has been a huge part of my life for so very long and at first it was going to be a temporary thing and still may be, however as the month progressed since I made that decision I am not sure how it will unfold and I am totally open to the experience. It has been an astounding growth experience and helped me in so many ways and I am so grateful and thankful for all of you that have helped, supported and listened over the years, I am humbled by the experience. It is time for me to finish up some project, start some new ones and also teach some local workshops and talks. I have my 2nd book that still needs some editing and it is ready to go as well as I want to do some more writing and do that 3rd book that is waiting to express itself. 

I love being a new mom again and am so enjoying this new puppy. She is such a joy and full of life, happy, keeps Pepé out of some of his trouble by playing with him...just what he needed...a warm puppy. I do so love having a hoard of animals and count my blessings on it everyday. Bella has adjusted fairly well and when they wrestle about and she wins, she gives Pixie a bath. The best thing to watch is my Mom's cat Sampson and Pixie together, it is like a long lost reunion and so very interesting since he doesn't pay much attention to the other dogs. I have had to adjust my morning routine greatly since Pixie joined us, it is amazing. Part of the changes that are finding their balance. 

This is an 8 year that we are now and as an 8 person, I am looking forward to in a big way that I don't normal feel when a new year begins. I am more of a yada yada, a new year, yada yada however this year feels like I really want to stand up and take notice to the vibrations around me and read the energy more and plan my day, be open to magical experiences and seeing it in action all around me and I feel optimistic in a new way that feels good. 

January of this year is about taking care of yourself, of setting up a plan to get back on track with your spiritual practice, which includes eating food that nourishes your body as well as your soul. Be creative and enjoy, but be sure that it is supporting you and your growth and not just your expansion (pun intended lol). Regroup and get ready for some purposeful action with a sense of satisfaction that you have not felt in a while and it is a nice change. There is some new opportunities for new relationships or new levels to existing ones that many of you have been waiting for some time now. 

There is a newness in the energy that hasn't been for quite some time and none of you will be left behind. Believing in that with all of your being is one of the most important keys to help yo through the doors, or perhaps its the light for those dark hallways between the doors. Don't get side tracked by the drama playing out around you as it truly serves no purpose to the advancing lightworkers which you are. The more you focus on the love, the journey and the fun, the better life becomes. It really is that simple. 

Have a great month, stay tuned for some updates as the changes unfold for I know it is going to be a great year unfolding and I think that for today, I will just be the happy penguin and go from there.

Sharon's Take, June 2013

Sharon's Take, June 2013 The Eye of the Hurricane

It has certainly been an interesting time on Planet Earth these last few weeks and months and June should bring us some clarity on personal and spiritual growth before we embark on the changes that we can expect for the remainder of the year. Mercury is going into retrograde on June 26^th so it is always best to get things in order and focused now so that you can take the time to relax, recycle and review during this phase. I have had a few remarks and questions about mercury these past few weeks as people have been noticing that machines haven’t been working the way they should and a bit of miscommunication has been happening. Sharon’s Take on that is that perhaps this alignment of Mercury, Venus and Jupiter might be having an influence. It has been raining here and cloudy at night, so I did not get to see the triangle effect, however have certainly been feeling it. I also feel that there is very much a quickening and the need to get things done to move on to new, more desired energy.  Definitely a desire for me to finish off things so I can move on as well as also feeling a bit overwhelmed by the demands and needs of others which need to be kept in perspective.  There is no quick magical fix that others can do for you. It is a journey we each must take and empower ourselves. Those we love who are used us fixing things in their lives are not always thrilled with the prospect of having to do it themselves, yet this is the greatest gift we can give them.  This is especially challenging for those who have been ‘the wizards’ in their family and friends circles for a long time.

The best gift you can give to yourself right now is to work on receiving and trusting the guidance you receive from your connection to your own inner wisdom and entourage of Light Beings.  Working on your own spiritual connection and creating a spiritual practice helps develop the empowered human and gives you the support, confidence and strength to motivate you forward to create in the physical while living in the 4D and 5D energy. You are ready and it is time. You have the resources and the ability to manifest you dreams and desires, and be in your passion. It is in the learning to understand the signs and symbols and trust in the messages you receive. The clearer your connection to your own guidance is, the better time you will be having.  As you learn to masters these skills and abilities, you will find that new doors or previous doors that did not open will be as exciting new opportunities come your way. This is the perfect time for career changes or advancement as well as changing aspects of your life that weren’t working for you previously.

Ask your entourage of guides, angels and masters to show you the way that brings you closer to your divine life purpose and to help you bring unfinished projects to a successful completion so that as you reach the half way mark in this year of mastery, you feel like you are indeed mastering it. Archangel Michael is the perfect Archangel to work with to help you make the changes you wish to make as well as to help you feel empowered and courageous through the particularly challenging ones.  He really is the ‘go to’ guy for so many of our earthly experiences and he is the perfect Archangel if you are not sure who or where to turn. He can help you to hone your skills and your talents as well as eliminate power struggles, conflicts and competition with others and focus on your path and what is important. The angels always remind me that if it isn’t for my highest good, it isn’t for the highest good of all that is.

This is a good time to do a review of how you have been progressing and evaluate how and where you want to go next. Look at the facts and figures and decide if it is really worth the ride, as it is time to move on in a new direction and embrace the changes that are taking place.  If you feel a firm connect and groundedness, it is much easier to go with the flow.  Those that are not focused and clear will often feel like they are trapped in a quagmire of earthly problems and lack the confidence to take the actions that are necessary or get stuck in the energy of too much going on and nothing getting done. Remember that you get what you think about whether you want it or not, so your thoughts and feelings are important to get into perspective and working for you instead of against you.  Again, the better you trust in yourself and your guides, the more clearly you create your ideas and situations you know you should be experiencing. You always have a group of beings guiding you, watching over you and protecting you.  Happy outcomes usually follow focused and positive expectations, so clearly state your desired expectations and focus on making them happen.

Several of the angels messages this week is have been wonderful snippets of advice  and this one in particular is a good reminder…

Curiosity

Explore this amazing world
 

Allow your inquisitive nature to help you explore the mysteries of the universe. As you desire to know and learn more about your life, the universe, and everything, more is offered to you. As you do, you will see the beauty that underlies all things.  Curiosity keeps you alive, interested and passionate about your world in these shifting times.

 

Explore who you are personally and spiritually and you will discover there is so much more to see and experience. It gives you a passion for life that brings you a never ending source of ideas and inspirations. It opens you up to the fascination and delight of experiencing a life worth living and helps you to see the beauty and joy that is all around you. Spend time on this journey of self-discovery and communicate your vision with others as a part of your spiritual practice.

 

There is so much available in this abundant universe, be open to explore and receive the wonders of life.                               

Affirmation: “I eagerly explore my life and the wonders of the Universe; I am alive with fascination for life the universe and everything.”

And so it is.

Working on expanding our personal light quotient is a great way to work on personal development and empowering ourselves and awaken our spiritual gifts and talents as well as those around us. For the lightworkers, this is a part of our life’s mission and for many it is the reason we incarnated at this time in humanities evolution. The spiritual teachers, healers and counselors are needed now more than ever and it is those of new thought and energy (power with not power over) that are needed to ignite and strengthen the divine flame in others as well as nurture and feed our own. Keeping on task and focused is often the challenge as many things appear to be happening all at once.

Take a sensible approach in dealing with your own life as well as others and keeping your courage and strength rejuvenated as these are keys to success at this time. Believe in yourself and your power to create, live abundant lives and feel a sense of accomplishment and expect to experience opportunities that are more in keeping with your hopes, dreams and desires will help you to yield the results you desire.

Remember, you the lightworkers and awakening ones are the Leaders of this great shift. Your strength, power, knowledge and abilities are needed. Do what you know is right and create and live by your own personal motto.

Take time and space for contemplation and look within as it gives you the opportunity to recuperate from some of the challenges of late as well as to reflect upon the way ahead. This will help you feel prepared for the next phase in your life and helps you have confidence in yourself and the choices you make as well as be living your life in your purpose  and your own growth to unfold. It is important to take time and space for yourself as it helps you to feel strong and powerful as well as kind and loving.

Many of you have been processing downloads and are learning and adjusting to new psychic and spiritual experiences at this time and this is what many of us have been waiting for. Don’t underestimate yourself or your power as it is a successful time of growth and change. You have been wanting this very time to come to planet earth, so don’t miss any of the opportunities and remember to enjoy life and the wonderful luxuries it brings.  Use your talents and skills to help you creatively co-create with the Divine and explore your creative potential and then get ready to fly. You are ready and the time is now.  Let your imagination flow and direct your creative energy towards projects and plans that speak to your soul and follow the path that leads to your passions, growth and expansion as you walk in mastery upon this beautiful earth experience.

Love and blessings, Sharon et el.

Archangel Michael and Releasing with Sharon Taphorn

Sweet Release with Archangel Michael Feb 17, 2013 by Sharon Taphorn

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It is time to let go of what no longer serves you or your mission and purpose. Sometimes this can seem overwhelming or confusing as it can be hard to understand what is holding you in stasis. This is an ideal time then for you to sit quietly and connect with my light and ask for me to help you clear away the thoughts and feelings that are confusing and cut the cords that bind you to lower energy, people and things.

 

Then, take some time and write down everything that you would like to release right now. Take the time to do a thorough job and you will feel so much better and brighter. When you are done and you feel your list is complete, place it in a fire proof container and burn the paper. As it is burning ask that you are cleansed by spiritual fire and let it flow all around you and through you, taking with it all that no longer serving you or your growth. As you are cleansed, and the paper burns, you will feel a release and perhaps even a vibration as it flows away. When you are done, ask to be encircled in a orb of light to seal in this clean new you.

 

Oftentimes lightworkers pick up the energy of others and it is important for you to cleanse and release old energy especially when you are in particularly toxic time. Clear your energy and use light for protection when you feel you need it and enjoy your steps on you path of enlightenment.

 

Communicate your visions and speak your mind with confidence. Keep your focus and be open to creative ideas and solutions from others right now. Looking at things from a new or different perspective can help you accomplish what is important for you. It is important to be yourself and be the best self you can be, as that is a part of the path of the awakening ones. 

 

Right now many of you are experiencing such tremendous shifting in your mental worlds; this is the world of your thoughts, your ideas, the work world, the world of the intellect, the world of justice and truth. There is much to look at and consider as it is an important part of the human journey and what will assist you the most at this time to find the balance and inner peace for yourself at this time and not get caught up in the energy of the mass consciousness. This is providing a challenge for many and it is therefore their greatest time to learn, as even if it doesn’t feel like it, it is offering you the most and greatest benefit. 

 

If things seem stale and they sometimes will, or unable to make a choice or decision on what is the next action you should take, it is important to release as you will just get more of the same and in a cycle of unbalanced energy as you try to get your footing. Use the power of your creativity, the power of your mind and the passion of your heart to get things moving once again. 

 

For most of you, things are looking up (for most of you reading or hearing this message, not necessarily all of those who are listening). You are finally feeling as if things are beginning to come together and make a bit more sense and rhythm. There is much to celebrate and things are going to feel more secure for you. New opportunities are going to start flooding in in the form of ideas, inspirations, offers of new contracts, new educational steps, and or any other area of growth you have been planting the seeds. Gifts of money, time and effort will be rewarded, just keep offering the best of you as it unfolds.

 

There is much to celebrate and wonderful rewards and opportunity coming and it is an exciting time. It is important to remember to think things through in a careful process and while time might be of the essences, it is also important that you feel confident in all that you sign and commit to. Make sure it feels right and good to you. You can always ask your angels if this choice brings you closer to your mission and purpose and what the path looks like as you head in that direction. This way you feel more in control of the choices that you make and more confident in it’s’ success. Remember to have fun and enjoy yourself along the way, this is most important. 

 

Take this next few weeks and find your base, find your center and create a structure with your environment that fits you. Clean up any unfinished business, revise any plans that need to be revisited and figure out clearly where you want to go. Make an appointment with someone who can offer you a higher vision right now as that can help you sort through what you need or want to keep and what you don’t.  Using this time to get your home, your thoughts and your emotions in order for the next phase is a most welcome activity and will help you keep the focus that you need. 

 

Trust that the seeds have been well planted and your dreams are indeed coming true, even if at first it feels like they have derailed or not turning out as planned. They have and soon you will see it, you just might need to sit tight for a time. The opportunities are still coming, and so do not waste any of it on unnecessary worry or crying over what might have been.  

 

You are an important part of the team of light beings who are here to make a difference, to make a change and it is time to ignite your passion for life and feel the energy and drive for the next phase, as there is an important part in coming. 

 

I AM Archangel Michael, and it is my honour to be called upon once again.

Mawu ~ Earthkeepers of Old

Mawu ~ Earth Keepers of Old  January 26,2013 through Sharon Taphorn

It is I, Mawu, guardian of the earth and her ascension into the next phase of her expansion. I am pleased that you have chosen to work with us and share the energy of love and stewardship for our beloved terra.  Much has been occurring on the physical level and you will continue to see changes and adjustments as mother earth recalibrates herself for new levels of light. It has been a very long time since the earth realm has held this much light and you are not going easily into that good Light.  It is time to cease pillaging her resources and leaving toxic wastes without the thought of how and what to do. As more of you become ill and must find a path of healing, you will be forced to wake up to the thought that you cannot keep spewing garbage into your earth and waterways. 

 

The earth is seeking to find her balance and each one of you is called upon to play your part. It is time to make a decision, to make a choice of what is going to be next on the path and evolution of the mother and your actions will speak louder than your words, although both are powerful. Pretending that all will fine is long past and I ask you to become the guardians and earth keepers that you long to help save her. And while this beautiful earth will last longer than the humans, and she really doesn’t need to be ‘saved’, it is the humans that have become ill from your own contamination of your food and water sources – in essence, your earth. She is a vital part of your weave and you of hers and together you form the web of life. The earth will find her balance, of that there is no doubt; the quest and challenge is in the human finding the balance to work and live with, on and within beloved Gaia.  Her life blood flows through you and when you begin to work symbiotically together, you will have created Eden once again. 

 

Review and evaluate what you do and how you live and how you can do things that better reflect the legacy you choose to leave behind. Do not give up. Protect that which has been given to you and have the courage to act from the best parts of yourselves as you do. Believe in yourselves and know that every step makes a difference. You are the stewards of the earth, the earth keepers of old who have come back again to see her safe arrival into a new vibration and expression. 

 

Do not give up! Protect that which you have created and have the courage and believe in yourselves and your cause. Remember that love holds the key in the challenges before you and know that the truth will be revealed and delivered to ‘we the people,’ by ‘we the people,’ from ‘we the people of spirit’, for “we the people “of that you can be proud and sure.  Those that speak their hearts with love will be the ones that are heard and can make the difference. It is therefore important for you to find this balance within yourselves so that you will be and feel completely connected to all that is. And use this connection as the essences in all that you do. It is a stronger energy that you any other you can utilize. 

 

Time is of the essence. Think through your plans carefully as you do not want to get caught up in the mental energy that is so prevalent and distracting from the actual purpose and cause. Do not see the differences in the colours of your skins or beliefs in your thoughts. Hold the power for the good of all and that includes everyone and therefore you also. Put down your swords of differences and work with the fire and flame of the all. Let go of the negative belief that there is only enough for one or the few and realise that there is enough for all and together you are so much stronger. 

 

Find the magic in the little things in life as these are the ones that hold the most value. It is not about who has the most or the best. It is about everyone having enough, enough love, nourishment and support, everyone having enough.  Together you are so very much stronger and when you begin to help each other to bring them up and expand, that is when you are in service to we the people and all that is. That is truly renewing your resources. The human evolution is the most natural resource you have and it is time to see the part it plays in all that is. 

 

Choose your battles wisely and also how you fight them. Defend your beliefs and decisions from the energy of love and it becomes more a way of being than a way which needs to be defended. There is much going on around you. Choose wisely and stand your ground firmly on those choices. This is a continuation of your spiritual teaching and your journey of self-discovery that leads you to the transformations that you seek. 

 

Listen to your intuition. Have patience with yourselves. These are significant and exciting life opportunities that you are experiencing as you embark on these changes. Consider carefully each step you take before acting and you will trust more in what you do. These opportunities are for your spiritual advancement and these changes are powerful and important. Spread your wings and get ready for the mission you have chosen as the earth keepers you have been and are again.

 

Become one with the earth and feel her heart beat and then feel the heart beat within you and blend it with the rhythm of each other and you will beat as one. Feel the power in the trees and the gifts they offer to you, and taste the beautiful nectar that is pure water, the life blood of the mother and that which makes all life as you know it exist in this realm. You are a part of each other and walk hand in hand. Awaken from the illusion of your separateness and work to strengthen that connection. Awaken to the love that dwells within the heart of the mother as it is expressed through all life and dance with the rhythm of that life. Let the heart of the mother blend with the heart of the masters and the masters that are becoming. 

 

This marks a time of positive change. There will be a sudden move forward and things are looking very good, so have your plans in place and have patience during this time of change. You have the resources and or the abilities you need to take you where you want to go, it is just that you need to believe in miracles once again. 

 

Do not look back with thoughts or feelings of regret as this will keep you in that energy and stop you from seeing the results you desire. When things don't turn out the way you hoped for it is important to look at where you thoughts were and perhaps they were blocking their creation, or you are being prepared for something better although you might not see that just yet. Find the gift in the experience and you are then on the path to healing and releasing it. 

 

Change is always happening and it is a sign that you are growing and there is so much more to come and more to do. Get ready for this time is near. The time of Lemuria is near, of being one with your earth and each other. It is time for you to work with the energy she offers you to enhance and ignite your journey. 

 

Feel the Full Moon's Glow and learn to utilize her energy. During the waning of the full moon you might feel a bit of melancholy as the build-up to this powerful phase is so strong for those who are open or opening to their intuitive and sensitive side. Trust in yourself and what you feel and know that there are always events and situations being worked on that you can't always see and so trust that there is more going on that meets the eye and that grander possibilities are possible. There is great change happening and you are an important part. Use the power of the full moon’s glow to help you work in the ebb and flow with the energy around you and that you are. 

 

Use the new moon to help you with your creations. A new perspective is always available and when you take the time to use the energy of the cycles you will find that it becomes easier to be in the flow. Use the daily cycles to be in the ebb and flow with your world. Small waves and large waves of energy happen throughout your day to utilize and help you create and expand. Your physical world offers you quantum possibilities and so there are many different opportunities and times that they are become more powerful. The clearer you understand and know what you want, the better you will become at bringing it into your physical world, the brighter, the faster and the finer. 

 

Carefully weight your choices and decisions and use your ability to organize in a logical structure so that is easy for you to understand and tackle. With a little self-discipline and work, you will get the things done that are important for you at this time. You have the talents and the skills; ask yourself if you have the heart. If the answer is yes, then you know it must succeed. Ask your guides and angels for guidance and then notice the signs, as there are many, and as you notice them, it will seem that more are appearing, and they are. 

 

Ask for me, Mawu to help guide you in ways that make your earth more sustainable and glorious. Ask for us to help you better understand the physical aspect of doing this journey as a spiritual being and I will happily guide you to the wisdom, understanding and passion that you seek to be fully present and a part of this unique and wonderful experience called you. I am happy to help you expand your connection to and with this world and your understanding of the importance that you bring to this time in our evolution and creation. 

 

I Am Mawu, goddess of the earth, goddess of the moon, an aspect of the mother and a part of every living thing on this beautiful earth, and a part of that is you, so I ask you to nourish, love and respect yourselves and this beautiful earth.

 

Working with Mawu: Mawu is an African Earth Mother and aspect of Mother Earth. She is happy to work with anyone who is an earth keeper or guardian of mother earth and will help empower and support anyone who is on a quest on behalf of the earth. She encourages us to take up the energy of stewardship for beloved terra and help her to expand her light and reach. She is the energy in every tree, every blade of grass and every drop of rain. She blooms in every flower and in our hearts. 

 

“Reflect upon the legacy you are leaving behind and do your best always for the generations that follow as they are you coming back to experience the cycle of life.” Mawu

 

She can help you connect and be one with the earth and all that is and feel the strength, love and beauty of this connection. 

 

Meditation with Mawu

Take some to just relax your body and become comfortable. Focus on taking some deep cleansing breaths and release as you exhale and bring in fine, high vibrating oxygen particles into your body as you inhale, allowing for the awakening of your cellular consciousness to the knowledge that something grand is about to take place within you.

 

When you feel relaxed and ready to connect with your earth and all that is, you will feel a tingling feeling and desire to move on to more. Imagine yourself awakening in a beautiful park, filled with sounds of the birds, water rushing in the distance and the wind gently rustling the leaves of nearby trees. The sun is shining brightly and beautiful smells of flowers and earth fill your senses. Then you are become aware of the earth beneath your feet and your connection with it. You can feel the beautiful grass between your toes and the coolness of the earth beneath your feet, and then you become aware of a connection of light that is emerging between you and the earth. It is as if you have become one and you can feel the heartbeat of the earth and your heart beat become one. As you do this, you can feel the connection and the love each of you have for the other and that you are a part of each other and you know that a part has always been connected because you work in unison with the other and you know this deep in your cellular consciousness.

 

Connect with the grass. Feel yourself merge and be one with the grass. Feel the strength and the bond each blade has with the other and just be in that energy for a moment. Ask how the grass experiences the human and feel that energy. Ask how the grass experiences the trees and feel that energy, ask how the grass experiences the human, and feel that energy.  Thank the grass for all that it has shown you and move on to stand beside a tree in the forest and feel the tree and how it so beautiful works with the human transforming human by-products into its food and its by-products giving life to the human and how you are so important to each other. Ask the tree if it has something it would like to share with you. When you are ready, merge with the tree and become one. Experience the life of the tree and how it experiences the other trees and then the humans and then the earth.

 

As you become one with the earth, you feel her heart beat, you feel the love. You become one. You begin to flow and experience life as the earth, with the humans, the plants and the insects and rocks and the crystals and the water and all that is. Feel the totality of mother earths experience and the grandness and the awesomeness of all of this. And you begin to understand why you chose to do an earthy journey and leave the love of all that is. It is to feel it outside of you and then feel the grandness of all that is as you become one once again.

And just in case you are not already saturated with this amazing love, take a moment to merge with your waterways and sense the beauty and gift that is your water. Feel its life force and how vital this precious resource is to the body of the human, to the body that is the earth.  Feel the wisdom keepers of the oceans, the mighty whales. Feel the knowledge that they offer the evolving human and let them share a gift with you this day. Feel the all-encompassing and powerful love of the dolphins, feel their joy and playfulness and how important that energy is for the human.

 

We ask for you do this journey, and as you are experiencing the weaves and the webs of life and how important each part works symbiotically with the other that you remember to cherish and honour all life as you begin to understand the importance of each thread and weave that is a part of the web of life.

 

As you do this meditation it will become easier for you be a part of the renewal of the earth and the earth experience, welcome home.

Working with Ishtar: Ishtar was a Babylonian and Assyrian goddess of sex, love, fertility, strength, and the underworld. Ishtar cults were formed during the middle ages which were probably where the ties between magic and witchcraft came to be seen as one in the same. She was also a warrior goddess on Venus during its time of occupation. She embodies all the feminine energy and aspects of a matriarchal society. She is a warrior of great strength and can teach us that our best weapons are our thoughts and our wits, often referred to as cunning; she says,

 

“Temper your words always with strength, conviction and love and you will understand the power of your words.”

 

Ishtar can help you develop more confidence and courage as well as how to work with your energy to help you achieve this. She is quick witted and has a dazzling smile if you return or appreciate humour.

 

Setting Boundaries January 23, 2013

 

Set healthy boundaries for yourself. With the increased sensitivities that many of you are feeling, it is important for you to establish healthy boundaries around yourself with your energy, your thoughts and your feelings. It is so very easy to try to fill in all the missing pieces in everyone's life, however this might leave gaping holes in your own. Love yourself and give yourself the time to replenish your reserves so that you are better able to serve where you choose. Give yourself time to adjust to your new sensitivities and practice working with them as you need. It is important for those who are particularly energy sensitive to know what is there's and what belongs to others, where you leave off and they begin, as these lines often become blurred, especially since you are truly not separate from each other. Just take a deep breath, go within and you will know. You are powerful, trust yourself.

 

You can always use shields of light to help you and remember to sweep your energy field at regular intervals as you are now more sensitive to others energy. Imagine a spiraling vortex of spiritual fire coming down from your I am presence to your crown chakra and spinning down cleaning you and out through the root chakra and into the beautiful mother earth for her to use. Then bring down another swirling vortex of spiritual fire and this time watch it expand to encircle your auric field and as it swirls around you, it cleanses your auric field and spins down to the earth for use as the mothers sees fit. Cut any cords or tethers that are connected to you by others and then seal your light with layers of colours that you feel are beneficial for you at that time.

 

Do this as often as you feel it is necessary and helpful. In particularly stressful situations you man want to do this frequently and daily.

 

If you find that you are receiving a psychic attack or unwanted energy that is not of your level of light, immediately put yourself in a cocoon of white light, invoke Archangel Michael and call in the protection angels and ask that they cut any cords attached to you and sweep away any lower energy. While the angels are doing their work, imagine all the wonderful thoughts and love that dwells within you and let that energy spread all through you and out your pores and into your bubble and stay in that beautiful light while the energy around you shifts.

 

Don't give up as you are so very close to creating what you desire. You have already created many wonderful things, relationships and experiences. Believe in yourself and what you give to so many for it is numerous. Much of the growth that you have been experiencing has led to significant changes in how you perceive your life and your relationship to everything. Trust yourself and have courage for you have only just begun to feel the new energy that you have stepped into. Powerful understandings led to great change and you are standing on the precipice.

 

Are you ready to soar?

 

You are coming into your own and with that there will be changes around you. Look for new partnerships or contracts as the time is right for the manifestation of your creations and it is time to move forward to what you have asked for. A new person will also be entering your life very soon to help you create these desires, or you will discover a new aspect an old relationship that previously you thought was not what it seemed. It is just this new aspect had not the energy to grow and now the timing is right. Be brave and know that the keys to the kingdom are available to all that are courageous enough to embark on the journey. You are on the right path of understanding and enlightenment and joy, gratitude and contentment are yours. Let your new heightened sensitivities be your strength and your guide.

 

Project your ideas into your life. You have learned many lessons since you began your awakening and now is the time to proceed further down the path and knowing you can apply what you have learned to make a better life for yourself. This is a time of positive change and you are ready for a great leap forward. Stay calm and get really clear about it is you want to create. You have all the things necessary and ready to line up, it is now time for you to make the choice in what you want to do next. Important decisions are best made on a full stomach, so ensure you feel balanced and whole so that you trust in your choices and don’t let old feelings of doubt become your focus. Quickly clear away all that no longer serves you from your thoughts and feeling and know that it is time to see things from a new or different perspective. Perhaps even a new area of study are called for or a complete change in all aspects of your life. Regardless what you choose, keep the faith and envision it happening for you and hold that thought that you are happy and fulfilled regardless of what you choose.

 

Make time for others in your life as it makes life more meaningful when you have others to enjoy it with. Taking time to enjoy yourself and play are an important aspect of life and this helps to feed all of your bodies. Let others see your warm, thoughtful and sensitive side as well as your more realistic, independent side. Use your charm and use your wit, as they will take you far and that is really where you want to go. See the humour in life and laugh often, this helps you to lighten up and be more joyful regardless what is happening around you and perhaps even to you. Laughter is such a healing energy and releases endorphins that have a natural healing affect upon the human body.

 

This is a time of new growth. An opportunity for expansion of all that you thought previously possible. This brings about new ways of thinking, being and doing. You have entered a new era, a new doorway into so much more as you awaken to the totality of whom and what you truly are. It is time for the empowered humans to step forward and take their rightful places as the warriors of light. Confidently accept the opportunities that are being offered to you right now as these are the steps that will help you fulfill your mission and your goals. Be strong and steadfast as you discover the resources you have as well as the ones you wish to develop in yourself.

 

You have the ability to manifest all of your desires, choose one and begin working towards it; all the others will fall into place when they need to. This can be a magical time in your life if you can decide what it is you truly want and work towards it. And remember to celebrate, you are now ready and it is time. Plant your seeds, nurture them and then watch them grow and use the powers that are natural to you enhance whatever you are undertaking and learn all that you need to know to help you grow. Communicate your vision to others and be the natural leader you were born to be. You are surrounded by beings in all dimensions that are available to help you expand, ask and you will receive.

 

Spread your wings. Sparked by a desire for something more, you are experiencing a desire to move on to something that feels better or right for you now. You are undergoing spiritual and emotional growth and transformation and you are also feeling bright new ideas and inspirations that hold great promise in your heart. It is time to take that leap of faith and just trust in your dreams. Know that it is finally your time, and you deserve great success. Have confidence in yourself.

 

Also give yourself time to process these changes on a physical level or you might you will be forced to take a break due to illness or disease. It is so much easier to process through the shifts and changes with a little rest and relaxation, some meditation and healthy simple foods than a full blown illness that makes you stay in bed, however both will serve their purpose. You will feel so much brighter and lighter and be doing what you need to bring these changes into your physical body and reality. Ask for and except help from your guides and angels and human angels that grace your life.

 

I am goddess Ishtar, the embodiment of Venus, the goddess of love and strength; it is my pleasure to share with you how to do battle, with your wits and your heart and be the changes that you seek.
