Seagull: An Angel Message

Traveling down the road of life, angel messages often take the ordinary stuff and make it extraordinary.  Nothing in the physical has actually changed, yet everything has by a shift in one's perception.

This photo was taken while living near the Bay at Virginia Beach.  I was attracted to the reflection of the seagulls posted on the fence.  When uploaded, these words on the side mirror caught my attention in a new light.

 OBJECTS IN MIRROR ARE CLOSER THAN THEY APPEAR

In Animal-Speak, I learned that seagulls are associated with both land and water as well as air.  It combines the gifts of both swimming and flying and can teach lessons on how to navigate in other dimensions. Shorelines are areas of great mystery between land and water and are often associated with fairy contact. When a gull appears, it can help teach one how to open communication with the Faerie Realm of life, especially water sprites.  Seagulls also indicate lessons or abilities on the proper behavior, courtesy and communication in our associations.

At resort areas, tourists tend to view seagulls as pests, but in their communities their behavior is quite different.  They do keep the shoreline clean and can reflect to work on cleaning up the shore areas of our own life.

Enjoy your day with the Angels.

An Angel Message from Hitchhiking Lizard

                                           Lizards on a Dolphin Statue in the Garden

Sorry I didn't have my camera today when I spotted a cute lizard dashing across the windshield. Elliot and I were driving through the neighborhood on our way to lunch in a nearby city.  He slowed down and the little fellow clung to the windshield wiper, head held high, like a regal hood ornament.  As soon as possible, we pulled off the street, but rather than turn him loose far from family, we slowly headed back to our driveway, encouraging him to hang on.  He seemed grateful when the car came to a stop and he leaped off in a familiar spot, home.

Lizard brings the message of detachment, of letting go of your fears.  When under attack, a lizard can snap off its tail to entertain a predator so he can freely make a get-away to safety. Lizard is also symbolic of dreaming and to pay attention to your dreams.

The angels are encouraging us to detach from the dream of separation as quickly as practical.  To wake up to the truth that we could never be separated from God, All-Knowing, All-Seeing, All Loving, All in All.  So whatever is absorbing your time and energy, take a lesson from lizard and detach from appearances. Choose to see things from a different perspective, one of a Spiritual being, made in the Image and Likeness of God.

Enjoy your day with the Angels.

Love and joyful blessings,

A Caladium A Message from Angels

                                         (A surprise Caladium yesterday)


The resurrection energy of Spring is bursting forth under the auspices of Archangel Raphael governor of Spring.  From recent blogs, you can see how nature is communicating.  Grow! Bloom! Be!

While eating lunch on the porch yesterday, Elliot spotted this big caladium in the corner. It had just shot up in a crowded pot with a bromeliad and some other plants I brought inside last winter.  I honestly don't remember the caladium being in that large pot, so imagine my surprise to see how it wended its way around the other plants and grew much taller to unfurl its angel leaves.   More was happening than met the eye as I later learned the caladium is symbolic of great joy and delight. It is also known as the Heart of Jesus or Angel Wings.  I love the message from nature: Keep on growing where you are now with your thoughts reaching higher day by day, you will rise above your circumstances and create the expanse for your angelic unfoldment.

Enjoy your day with the Angels!

A Purple Spiderwort: An Angel Message - Bloom Where You Are Planted

Spiderworts have always been a favorite. They are low maintenance and bloom where they are planted, freely sharing their beauty.  This flower apostle recently popped up through a break in the concrete sidewalk leading to our front door. I wondered how I'd missed it, growing wild, but we mostly take the stepping stone path from the driveway to the porch.

Its cheerful presence took me by surprise as angel messages often do.  "Here I am!" The victorious little spiderwort seemed to shout.  "Against all odds,I made it! Where there is a will, there is a way!" Smiling in purple blossoms of joy, it was just the message I needed to keep on keeping on.  Even more surprising, it had  survived the lawn mower the day before! Its zest for life must have touched the heart of the lawn care man who decided to let it be when edging the walk.

So, dear friends, if you are facing a challenge of any kind, just know that there is a power within you that is greater than your circumstances.  Rely on that loving Presence to see you through to the light of a new day.

Enjoy your day with the Angels.

Easter Messages from Nature

Happy Easter!

Before I could open my eyes this morning, a sweet little bird whistled a merry tune as he flew by the 9th floor baloney at the hotel where we stayed at Daytona Beach.  His cheerful song reminded me that Christ Has Risen! Sleepily, I thanked the little warbler as I hurried to the window in hopes of seeing the sunrise.  It was still dark..so I crawled back to bed.

Later, I had such hopes of capturing an Easter sunrise to share with you.  A thick cloud cover shrouded the horizon, but it couldn't fool me.  I knew the sun was still shining despite appearances.   The sun is always shining...something we often take for granted.  Another Easter "gift" was waiting on the outside of  the car door as we were leaving for home. The little winged one had hunkered down in the gusting winds waiting for calmer weather.. Seeing it there brought a smile. A bee is symbolic of doing the impossible (Their bodies aren't aerodynamically designed for flight but they do!) An angel message that brought to mind what Christ did on that triumphant Easter morn thousands of years ago!  He has risen, indeed!

Enjoy your Easter blessings!

Live and Let Live: An Angel Message

You know the angels are around when you find yourself suddenly noticing something new about something old.  That happened to me yesterday. A favorite shirt was hanging on the clothesline in the laundry room.  Passing by,  I yanked it down. When folded I saw the neck tag:  Live and let live.  I've had the shirt for several years but the message seemed timely.  Christ came that we might have life more abundant.  LIVE!   The more we live and breathe and move in His consciousness, the fuller and richer become our lives and so are the lives of those around us.

Enjoy your day with the Angels.

An Amaryllis Surprise: An Angel Message

How are you doing working with Archangel Raphael and the nature angels of Spring? Resurrection energy abounds with opportunities for healing. Our challenges can  bring unexpected blessings... if we can keep our focus on the spiritual truth of Life. Angels enfold us, always.  The substance of divine Love fills all space and form.  

Yesterday while watering the garden, my eyes leapt at the sight of this unexpected beauty.  An amaryllis welcoming Spring with open petals.  In the Victorian Age, an amaryllis indicated success after a struggle.  Also, a flower that represents a job well done.  To give one to an artist, is a way of encouraging creativity.

So, if you're reading this, take heart that your efforts to keep your thoughts on upward wings are working beneath the surface and when you least expect it, you will benefit from the blossoms of a job well done just like the Amaryllis.  Keep expressing your creativity...
sharing the unique gift of you!

Enjoy your day with the Angels!

Angels Everywhere: Psalm 91

Yesterday morning I found myself interrupting the task at hand and grabbing a book off the shelf, one from an eight volume set by Joel S. Goldsmith, author of The Infinite Way. The books were a  gift from a dear friend several months ago.  I'd been feeling deflated, but you can imagine my surprise to open  the book God Formed Us For His Glory and land on a passage titled, Angels!  That synchronicity shook me awake...more is happening than I know. Angels are always guiding us in the subtlest ways, although unseen they are not unnoticed.  The paragraph began with that comforting scripture, Psalm 91, "For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways."  

"in ALL thy ways"...the more receptive we are to acknowledging this help, the easier it becomes to pass through our trials with more peace, love and joy and to avoid those obstacles that try to block progress.  Thank you! Angels.

Enjoy your day with the Angels.

Love and blessings,

Baby Squirrels: An Angel Message

What an action scene to watch two bushy tails draped over a high limb on the 80-ft tall oak in our backyard. With the zoom lens, I expected to see two squirrels but the close up shot was more endearing than expected. I thanked them for the reminder that a little tender loving care goes a long way. 

Squirrels are very communicative, chattering away, so it's not surprising that their appearance is a reminder to develop our own communication skills. It will be an  important part of our preparation for the future.  Squirrels bring a message to use proper balance in work and play but do it with TLC.  

Enjoy your day with the Angels.

Angel of Tenderness

The Angel of Tenderness was my random card for today.  The angel shown on the card was sharing a tender moment with a cat. And, soon, I had a chance to practice tenderness with our furry feline, Angel who had arrived at the office before me.  Rather than disturb her, as she warmed up the chair, I remembered the Angel of Tenderness and pulled up a seat beside her ready to do a blog.  

Enjoy your day with the Angels.

Owl With a Vision: An Angel Message

I found myself trying to come up with a blog today.  While searching old files,  fresh inspiration winged its way into view outside my den window. To my delight, this wise old owl had perched on the garden trellis. His back was toward me, but when I zoomed in with the camera, his feathery brown head swiveled all the way round backwards.  Two large eyes stared at me intently.   

An owl in the daytime I marveled.  These birds are nocturnal. His pose seemed important as he turned round to see me.  I thanked him for the message, and no sooner did he spread his wide wings and land on a high tree branch to survey the big picture.   

I thought that his visit may be on living in the now. New ideas are coming to you in exciting ways, so why look back for inspiration.  Keep your eyes on the present front, in the now, and fly up higher. From a higher limb, you too will see from a better vantage.

Owl is the silent guide WHOoo teaches us to trust our own instincts and silent impressions. To see an owl is an indication that help and guidance are available, but we must act on it. 

Enjoy your day with the Angels and follow the wisdom of your heart.

Love and blessings,

Don't Look Back: An Angel Message

Don't look back,
Don't you look back
Keep your eye on the steady track...
Don't look back.  Don't look back. Don't look back.
                           Elliot Chiprut
                           Sing That Country Music 

This morning's meditation was pleasantly interrupted by the sound of a train whistle. The timing made me chuckle as I'd started to drift toward an old issue from the past. Hearing that whistle blow, reminded me, Don't look back!

The start of another year has a whole new set of tracks that lead onward toward new destinations.  As the locomotive surges full steam ahead, the old caboose at the end of the line, gives thanks for the memories that brought us to a new beginning.  

Enjoy your day with the Angels.

Love and blessings,
