The Story of An Angel

"Give of yourself as the Angels do,
and wonderful things will come to you."
- Ramadan

The following is an Angelic Message that has been excerpted from a personal reading that was channeled in spoken word by Rev. Ana Jones. This message has been transcribed and edited into written word for the purpose of sharing it with a wider audience. All personal information has been removed leaving only the universal wisdom teachings that can apply to us all.

THE STORY OF AN ANGEL

A Message from the Angel Sarah
Channeled by Ana Jones


I hear the sound of the children, the child inside of you, the children in your life and the children of this world. I hear them all as one voice. I hear their laughter I hear their tears.

It is I, the Angel named Sarah, that chooses to speak to you.

The reason why the small minute details of ones life purpose needs to come about through your own personal realization is because your truth needs to be fully empowered within you. The only truths that are fully empowered in you are the ones that you, yourself have come to realize through your life experience, through direct self-realization. All other truths that you carry with you as truth you have some doubt about on some level. You have many truths inside of you that you accept as truth but yet simultaneously it is not fully empowered because there are doubts or fears around those truths or lack of realization around those truths

There are ways that we angels get around these things, through telling stories, through helping you in ways that you are not aware of, through bringing you dreams, through continuously guiding and directing you in your path.

Let me tell you a story, a story about myself, why I was created, who I am.

The name Sarah is just a name. It is a name I have given to you because you have given to me. You gave it to me long ago because of what it means and because of the strength that it conjures up and creates inside of you. I am eternal as are you. There has never been a time in which we have not been together. I was created for the purpose of being in relationship, to manifest love throughout the universe through relationships, through my relationship with you. In manifesting love in that relationship and manifesting love in our lives, I fulfill that purpose.

I was created also to be the one who listens, who is a great listener. We share this in common as well. There is great power in my listening. It is often taken for granted because oftentimes people think of angels and their greatest gifts as what they have to give. My greatest gift is not always what I give to you, but my ability to receive, my ability to listen. This is the action I am most empowered at. The way in which I listen is different than just hearing something. I listen by allowing all of those energies, all of those vibrations, all of those sounds, all of those essences to move through my being and be transformed by each and every one of them so that when it is time for me to give, I know what to give, when to give and how to give it. Especially to the children of the world.

You are an eternal child of God, that child inside of you is eternal, never grows old, weary, can never be harmed, can never be burned by fire or wet by water. That child can still nonetheless through compassion and love, weep for the suffering of others and this is also what I do in my listening. I often shed cleansing tears so to speak, in an absence of a way to describe it to you, as it is an energy that comes off of me. It is for cleansing sake, it is for purification sake. I have this role to play. When it comes time for me to give something back, it is cleansing and purifying. This is what I call healing.

CLEARING TOXICITY

There is so much toxicity, unbelievable amounts of toxicity, physical, emotional, mental, and even spiritual toxicity that is influencing the child within you and your ability to connect to that true child of God that you are. There is so much toxicity that is having a profound affect on the children of this world. No one is listening like I am listening.

One of the things that I will be doing to help you move into fulfilling your part of this purpose is to help you to listen more. You are afraid of listening the way that you have the potential to listen because of how sensitive you are. You have not yet learned that you can take all of that in as long as you are transmuting it and giving light back. You are afraid of it hurting you. I can tell you as your own toxicity clears, you become connected to your soul that infinite eternal child of God that you ultimately are, those fears will dissolve and be seen as what they really are: illusion! False Evidence Appearing Real.

So listening is the key, but not just listening to others, listening more to your Self. The time of deep self-exploration and transformation is now!

These levels of toxicity that I am speaking of that are happening on all levels of your being that are affecting you and each and every being on this planet, it needs to be decreased, especially in helping the children deal with this toxicity for they are being affected by it more than any other human beings.

It is a smaller list for me to describe to you the things that are not creating the toxicity in their lives. The most important thing is to not just eliminate all the toxins, but to actually change their consciousness, change the way they think, the way they see and view reality. This brings about true healing which is true transformation. It is not just about removing environmental or chemical toxins, even though those are a part of it, but empowering yourself, educating yourself so that you can then empower and educate them to deal with those emotional, mental and spiritual toxins that also are there, to transform many of them.

It may be easy to remove a chemical toxin from a food source that the children may be eating, but it requires much more in dealing with the emotional, mental, and spiritual toxins. It requires transformation and helping them to see more who they are and to think about themselves and this world in a way that is truly in harmony with a life in balance. Before you can do that for them, you must be there yourself.

DESTINY

Destiny has it’s timing. All things happen within a greater timing sequence that is predestined for a reason. Through your fears, through your resistances you could make choices to slow and delay that timing but not to remove that timing. Even with great resistance on your part, the ultimate timing in which the manifestation of your destiny will take place will occur. You have chosen it long before this life and you have ensured it with an accord between your will and God’s will. You chose that your destiny be fulfilled, knowing full well that you would go through all that you have gone through, and that you would most likely resist in the myriad of ways that you resist.

This is the good news and it is the bad news. It is the good news because you can have faith and trust that you simply need to move along the path as you are guided. Grow; cultivate that seed of life and creativity that is growing within you. It is the bad news because some part of you does not accept. What you don’t accept I cannot tell you, you must answer that for yourself. It is the bad news because if you don’t accept- even if you see your destiny manifest before you, if one does not accept it, you can choose to ignore it and something else entirely starts to occur.

For example there are people whose destiny has manifested right before their eyes again and again and again and they have not accepted it. I will leave you to imagine what that creates and what kind of life they live. There is always free will in everything. Even though I have described to you that your will and God’s will have co-created this destiny to unfold itself and it will, even in that moment of unfoldment, your will must be to accept it regardless of what it takes, regardless of your fears, regardless of your resistance, regardless of whether it is practical or not practical.

The time to start working on becoming more accepting and working on deep acceptance in your life is right now. You must walk in full acceptance.

CREATING A NEW WORLD

My role with the children of this world is to ensure also that they know and are given the tools to deal with what they know. I help the children of the world know what they are fully getting themselves into, what condition of the world they are inheriting and that they are not left alone to deal with that. With each generation that comes, comes an entirely new opportunity for peace in this world. It is like a new slate, a brand new slate and the world can be created in any way through that generation. They start creating it, they start creating the world, the current present world and their future world through their thoughts and beliefs and the experiences that they have, through the things that enter their minds, through the images that they see. The things that they hear have profound affects on them, more so than what they see. The sounds and the words they hear have more of an affect on them than anything they see or experience.

Part of my role and your role is to give them the tools, to help them to hear, to help them to see, and to be in a way that is going to help them create the future that they really want. They must create the world as it is in their hearts, a world of purity, a world of peace, a world of love, a world of laughter, a world of joy, a world in balance and harmony. It is not just with people because how can you expect people to be in balance with each other when people are out of balance and harmony with all other living things on this planet.

It doesn’t start with balancing your relationships with each other and then you’ll balance your relationships with all other things on the planet, it’s the opposite. You can’t do it. You can’t balance your relationships with each other without balancing your relationship with this planet and the other beings on it. It is just the way the system is set up.

It is not that I am limiting reality through what I am saying, there are certain sacred, and natural laws that the universe works within that all life within this earth and the universe must function within. Just like there are laws within your society that you must function within. These laws are beyond that because they are laws that cannot be broken. You can attempt to break them, you can try to break them, you can do everything in your power to go against them, you can use your will to directly ignore and deny them, but then you only receive the repercussions of that.

The time is now and the time is to come, as there is time still to make all the changes and the transformation, not a lot of time, but time, enough time.

I have not said all that you want to hear, but I have said all that you need to hear, here and now, for this stage in the journey. Know my love is a constant source of illumination. It is always there and is unconditional, all encompassing, because the love of God is always there for you, with you, and in you. It is always there and never goes away, it is only you that stops seeing it and feeling it. Energy goes where attention flows and where intention flows. Redirect your energy back to that love and miracles will happen.

A Message of Peace from Divino Maestro

"I can promise you that things are changing rapidly and that the way things are now will be very different than the way they were, and they will be very very different in the future…completely transformed." - Divino Maestro as channeled by Rev. Ana Jones

"Dear Ones. I have come in response to your prayers to speak this message to you today. I wish to begin this message with a simple teaching that is to bring you peace and to help you with all that you ask. The teaching is to ask you to become as a child for when you become as a child you shall enter the kingdom of heaven and I wish to explain this teaching to you. The kingdom of heaven is within. The kingdom of heaven is in your own soul…in your true self…it is in you and it is your nature. This nature, this heavenly nature, this divine nature that is within is the source of all peace. The place of all peace and it is very important to access it, to live from it, and to always be connected to this divine nature within you, this Supreme Spirit Soul residing within you and as I said in this simple teaching becoming as a child. Being a child, the child that you are, the divine child that you are is one of the keys to living in this peace, to being in this peace.

When I say become as a child I am referring to many things that I will explain here today. First, is that type of openness and acceptance that you see in children. This kind of openness and acceptance to take everything in. Be open and receptive to everything. This is the consciousness of a child. This is the heart of a child and this is the same heart and consciousness that is the key to living within that kingdom of heaven and to manifesting the kingdom of heaven here on earth. There will be many, many things required for this, but this is one spiritual key to be as a child. Accepting and trusting, with an open mind and open heart allowing everything in.

Another very important aspect that I am speaking of has to do with trust and faith. While your faith is strong it is to grow even stronger and while your faith is as strong as it is in its growth, it will become broader and deeper. Trust and faith go hand in hand. The kind of trust and faith that a child has is not naïve but is pure and is innocent none the less.

Humility is not in any way shape or form thinking less of yourself and devaluing yourself thus you must look at ways in which you are doing this. It is very important to be in a state of child-like humility and selflessness, while making sure that you have a self to give and that you are preserving and protecting first and foremost yourself so that you have a self to give. Your soul, your nature, the nature of this kingdom of heaven that is within is eternal…it is eternal!

Your commitment to the kingdom of heaven, your commitment to your soul, to your true self is the commitment to live in this truth and to remember is the process of remembering and going into the awareness of the child...the consciousness of a child. This does not mean that you leave behind the wisdom and the discernment of all that you have grown and all that you have experienced and all that you’ve accumulated. Quite the contrary for the divine child that has the ability to live within the kingdom of heaven and to enter the kingdom of heaven and reside there is The Child of Wisdom.

The Child of Wisdom uses all wisdom, not taking your self seriously, but taking the wisdom seriously. What I mean by “not taking yourself seriously,” is to not thinkso much of the worldly ideas of self…the mind, the intellect and all the things that you normally think of when you think of self…knowing that all of those things are of this world and of the material nature. Knowing that all of those things of this world and of this material nature are not your true self.

In order to remember who you are, spiritual life and spiritual practice is essential. Yes, these things require commitment and perseverance and persistence. However, spiritual practices such as prayer and meditation also require child-like qualities…joy, play, laughter, song. Sing a song, sing to the earth, sing to the elements, sing to the water and the wind, sing to the Divine that is everywhere…all around you. Songs of praise, songs of joy, songs of gratitude, songs within your own heart, the song of your heart, let it spring forth let it come forth like the prayer of your heart. Let it come forth like a spring, coming forth bubbling up out of the earth letting it bubble up out of your heart, letting it come forth out of your heart, pray the prayers of your heart. Put those prayers out there with sincerity and yet with that same kind of openness, trust, faith and joy of a child. Sing, laugh, and play where you are with the sacred land and the sacred place that you have been given that is connected to your mission and your destiny. Interact, relate as a child… see through the eyes of a child.

Think of the term of “beginners mind.” I use this term to describe to you the sight of a child. When a child sees something for the very first time it is this beginners mind that is used to see and to perceive and that is experiencing something. You have a long history with the people you are connected to. Because of this history it is very easy to loose this beginner’s mind. It can be easy to loose the sight and vision of the child and yet, it is key to entering the kingdom of heaven and living within the kingdom of heaven not only for you but for all who inevitably will learn this and come to their own realizations about this in their own ways. The spiritual enlightenment journey takes everyone to this point at some stage along the way and their own realizations coming to them about this.

Because of your personal history, it is easier to identify with your history and to see things based upon all the knowledge and the perception of the past that is there. Beginners mind, the child’s mind, sees each and every day, each and every experience as if it is a new experience! In the moments in which you have been able to do this you have transcended and transformed and I am encouraging you and giving you guidance today to truly focus your energy, your attention and your intention on increasing your ability to wake up each and every day and see every day as a new day ---- see it through that beginners mind.

Approach everything as if it is a new opportunity and a new beginning with a new situation because truly it is. Truly in each moment you have an entire new moment, an entire gift that is being given to you which is why ‘the present’ is called ‘the present’ because it is a gift. It is called ‘the present’ because it is a present to you…a gift to you that is anew.

A child does not know how to take the past and project the past into the present and project the past into the future. A child learns projection, it is conditioned and taught to them. This is not the way it was designed to be. Do not project the past into the present or into the future. Do not take the past and bring it in, in any way, to your vision of how things are now or how things will be.

I can promise you that things are changing rapidly and that the way things are now will be very different than the way they were and they will be very, very different in the future…completely transformed. A transformed vision is what is required to participate in this great transformation consciously. A transformed vision is what is required in order to fully fulfill all that you have come here to be, all that you have come here to do and to live within that kingdom of heaven and to manifest that kingdom of heaven here on earth.

You are to manifest the kingdom of heaven here on earth and it starts by living it within your own being. By living it within your own temple, within your own body, within your own mind.

You refer to this as peace and I am using the term kingdom of heaven to describe it to you because it is peace that is so much more. What I am describing to you is the peace…deep, serene, profound peace, unending, impenetrable peace but also wholeness, completion, love all of these are as one in the kingdom and the experience of living within the kingdom of heaven…your true nature…your birthright.

I encourage you to regularly and routinely make time to just connect and commune with yourself and with power sights and power places upon the earth where the energies are most conducive for prayer and meditation, where the energies are most conducive for connecting with that peace within, connecting, feeling and realizing the kingdom of heaven that is within. I encourage you to seek out the most peaceful, serene, powerful, energetic sights on the land around you. Go to these places of prayer and mediation for you and in your meditation quiet yourself through your breathing.

First begin to breathe in and out and in the inhale taking in as a child, accepting all that is and all that is around you and allowing yourself to just take it all in with the inhale…with the in breath and on the exhale, extending yourself, extending your love, extending your compassion, extending your light out to connect with all that is around you, all that is within you and all that is around you are interconnected and this simple breathing meditation will help to help focus you, quiet you and then just breathe once you have done this a few times inhaling drawing everything in connecting with all that is around you and taking it in and then exhaling taking all that is within you and connecting it with all that is around you externally.

Once you have done this for some time, for as much as feels right to you then just continue to breathe, relax, quieting the mind, going beyond the mind and into the heart.

It is your mind that is disturbed. It is your mind that is feeling the disturbance. It is your mind that is creating the disturbance that you feel and experience. In particularly it is certain aspects of the mind, the aspect of the mind that is the ego. It plays a very important role in the whole but it is not who you are and it is also just as important to learn to bypass it or to transcend it through meditation, through self-awareness, through spiritual life and spiritual practice. Go into what I refer to as your sacred heart.

The sacred heart is the seat of the soul, not your physical heart, not the heart of your physical body but the sacred heart which is the seat of your soul…going within that through the meditation in this place where these energies are conducive to live and to be and to connect with the kingdom of heaven within you and then once you have done this through silent meditation opening your eyes, coming out of the mediation open your eyes and see with the eyes of a child even if you have seen the plants, the trees, the land, the landscape, the stones, the dirt, the soil of this place thousands and thousands of times attempt to see it with that beginners mind through the eyes of the child as you come out of the meditation as if you are seeing it for the very first time.

See the beauty, smell the sweetness in the air, the beauty that is all around you. Allow yourself to see that with that eyes of the child and then sing, sing and laugh and play. It does not matter what or how but complete this process in this way and do this for a period of time, as much as you possibly can, and it will begin to establish a pattern, a new pattern as what is needing to shift and change our old patterns.

The transformation of this happening and occurring within you and around you and on the entire planet is to create completely new patterns of ways of being, of ways of living as the frequency of heaven on earth is being set into place. The kingdom of heaven is energetically already happening and over time, is being made manifest. The full embodiment of spirit into matter is what I am speaking of and describing. Some refer to this and call this the ascension of the earth and it is in my view and in my terminology a very good word to describe this.

You are here where you are as the soul and the spirit of who you are to experience and to play a role in this earth ascension and there are no accidents indeed. There are no accidents, everything is for a reason, and while this is something to be taken in reverence, it is also simultaneously important to receive all of this knowledge, to have all of this wisdom, to take all of this and move with it, act with it as a child…as the Divine Child that is your birthright and is your nature.

Heal the sadness that is within you, the medicines of laughter, the medicines of song, the medicines of dance, the medicines of play…these are the medicines to heal that sadness and to transform it and to transcend it once and for all and for ever more and eventually these medicines that I have described to you will take higher and higher forms of expression of which you will understand as you progress through the stages of enlightenment, as you progress through the stages of ascension and as you and all of the others who are meant to play the role in the earth ascension, play your role and do what you are meant to do…you are offering yourself in service.

Service is another quality of the Divine Child that is a great and magnificent quality that you already have…the desire to serve. This quality of the Divine Child is to selflessly receive and the selflessly give…unconditional love. This is love without attachments, it is love without conditions placed on it. Love without attachments to any outcome or to any result true, unconditional selfless love is already a gift that you have and it is something that you are meant to master in this life. I wish to remind you in this message today that you are loved. You are loved unconditionally in a way that is all encompassing for who you are.

This love I have for you, this love I give to you, this love is yours and you are only limited in receiving it and only limited in giving it by any conditions that you place upon yourself and by any conditions that you place on your own love for yourself. So, I ask you to look at the conditions that you place upon yourself…the limitations that are there because of the conditions that you have drawn on how much you love yourself. Allow yourself to receive the love that is there for you. Look at these conditions and limitations that you have placed. Identify them. Be honest and truthful with yourself about them, knowing that being honest and truthful about these limitations and about these conditions is true humility and once you have identified them, clear them, clear them on all levels----this is something that will take time.

The clearing will happen first and foremost on the spiritual for through the process of becoming aware of these conditions that you are placing on your love for yourself and on receiving this unconditional love through the process of awareness on the spiritual level, it will immediately transform through that awareness. It will immediately clear through the awareness alone. However, on the emotional, mental and physical level of which there also needs to be clearing of these there will need to be further steps taken and the proper guidance will come to you when that time comes. Listen, listen to the guidance that is coming. Again, this is an act of a child, to take it all in…to listen, to receive all that is there, to honor it and accept it. As you listen it will help to also connect you more to this peace. Listening to the still, small voice within is the voice of peace. Peace is not something that can be maintained externally unless it is maintained internally.

I have given you a great deal of information here today. It is not meant to be just information but to be a teaching for you to take much more deeply than what these words initially can do. I ask you to take these teachings and put them into practice. Take them to your heart, the sacred heart that I have described, the seat of your soul. Go deeper into prayer, go deeper into meditation. The depth of prayer for you goes beyond petitioning prayer and into prayers of praise. The more you go into prayer of gratitude and prayers of praise, the deeper your experience through prayer will be and all that you can access through prayer and it will become yet another access to the kingdom of heaven for you.

All of these accesses that I’ve described to you today; all of these keys that I have described to you today that are so important will eventually give way to an experience of the kingdom of heaven that becomes an on-going experience, that becomes an on-going perception and an on-going way of being, way of living in this world. For what I am describing to you is a way of living in this world and a way of being who you are that facilitates the manifestation of heaven on earth and the manifestation of the kingdom of heaven within as your daily reality. As the only true reality of the mind, body and senses and all aspects of your being and this is the spiritual shift and the spiritual transformation that you are undergoing and that all upon the planet are undergoing in this journey of enlightenment or what I would also call the Great Ascension.

In this Great Ascension you are all being lifted into the light: higher and higher frequencies and vibrations of pure love and this is what I give to you today. It is my gift to you today and my gift to you every day. I give you this pure love, this pure light a source of all peace, of all that is. Receive it dear one through the eyes and the ears and the open arms of the child that you are, the Divine Child that you are.

Thank you for your service and for your selflessness."

Offerings of Gratitude

Dear Friends, I am now sharing with all of you a special message from the Archangel Michael that I channeled a few years ago that applies even more today than ever before. I published this message in chapter 6 of my self-published book 'The Teaching of Archangel Michael: A Handbook for Humanity.' If you have the book then you can read the full message of what came before and after these teachings. Also published in the book is a step by step outline of the very simple yet profoundly powerful ritual/ceremony that Archangel Michael describes in this message. If you do not have the book and would like to order a copy please go to my online webstore at www.QuestingSpiritWebstore.com

In this message, Archangel Michael reveals to us that we are all needing to do ceremony as a part of our daily lives in order to restore balance once again. According to the angels, things are really out of balance right now in our culture and in our world, and this indicates an imbalance within us. AA Michael describes this as the imbalance between our giving and receiving, and in this message provides a detailed ceremony that he recommends we all do as many times as needed for bringing our inner masculine and feminine, our giving and receiving back into balance. In the process/ceremony that Archangel Michael gives us there is one thing that stands out to me as the key to the success of the ritual---GRATITUDE. As we see in this sacred ceremony, it is gratitude that opens our hearts and makes all things possible.I encourage you all to seek the guidance of the Angels, Guides, & Masters working with you in your life, as they can help to bring us peace, balance, and certainty during these uncertain times. Be grateful for all the blessings in your life and the role that these wonderous beings play in helping to bring those blessings about.Blessings of Love, Light, & Gratitude,
Rev. Ana Jones

Message from Archangel Michael
Balancing Our Giving & Receiving through Offerings of Gratitude

"Adonai Elohim Adonai, Elohim, Adonai, Elohim. It is I the Archangel Michael that speaks these sacred words. I resonate and vibrate these two sacred names of God for you to hear at this time and for those vibrations to be felt within your heart. These are two names of innumerable names that represent and call upon directly the one true infinite source of all sources, cause of all causes, the one true being of all beings, essence of all that is divine, God of all forms and of all creations.

I start this message with the Adonai Elohim chant because you ask me for a meditation. You ask me to continue in my message about ceremony and ritual and this is the first part of the meditation that I will give you, the first part of a practice in which I encourage you to do, each and every human being upon this planet. I encourage this practice every day of your lives: a ritualistic ceremonial practice, a meditative practice of reciting aloud and silently. Chanting, harmonizing, toning, repeating, stating whatever holy name of the Divine that speaks to you, that connects you. Repeating it again and again and again as a way of keeping you connected in this time.

This Age in which you find yourself living is the age of winter, the age of darkness, the age of the decline of consciousness also known as the Iron Age. Also known as the Age of Kali, the goddess who oversees life, creation and destruction. In this age, as I have spoken, there is a decline of consciousness, a decreasing, a waning of the light that is natural in this age, similar to the time period in winter. It is a natural age just as there are seasons of the day, seasons of the moon, seasons of the year, seasons of one’s life.

The ages that the earth goes through is also broken down in similar seasons that cover and expand over vast time periods. This season, this age that humanity finds itself in began only 5000 years ago and extends many thousands of years still into the future. Similar to the winter it is the time of the waning of the light, like the winter solstice. The time of the waning of the light, but also considered to be a very auspicious time for great growth and great expansion to take place. A time where it is more needed than ever that the light be generated, called upon, and invoked. The work of raising one’s consciousness is be the most important, great work, and in this age, this season, it has just begun. You have not even reached the time period of the greatest waning which the new moon and the winter solstice represents. If you think of the energies of the new moon and you think of the energies of the winter solstice you will understand what the energies of this age are and of what is still to come.

The practices of regular ritual, ritual that is intentional, focused with intention to continue to generate light and to raise consciousness and to connect you are very important. In previous ages, such as the Golden Ages, it has been incredibly easy for those who lived to maintain consciousness and awareness. Incredibly easy to maintain connection and awareness of your interrelations with all things and with us and your most important relationship of all, to The Divine, one, true God of all being, of all faiths.

It is possible and it is ordained for there to be a Golden Age within this age, for there to be a Golden Age within the Age of Iron, a summer within the winter. Many light workers, many healers, many teachers, many ministers and many people of all faiths all over the world are acting and serving and working in the truth of that one true light. The one true light that does not exclude anyone but includes all, working within it, as part of the Golden Age within this Iron Age.

The few years between now and the year 2012 are vitally important in the creation of the Golden Age. Setting the structure, setting the foundation for that to be. You will not see it manifest during this time. Think of it as if you are building it from the foundation and you are building it on the etheric level. Think of it as an umbrella within the storm which many, many will come to know and come to experience. But the age of Kali, this Iron Age, this winter that you are finding yourself in, this winter of consciousness, this waning of the light, it is yet increasing and will continue to increase as well. The effects on all of you, even those reading this who have been on a spiritual path for a long time, the effects of this will be very powerful and can be very deceiving and very deluding. This is the reason why I repeatedly, again and again, tell you the importance of daily spiritual practice, of daily ritual, of ceremony, of meditation and of prayer.

Meditation and prayer are easy places to begin and start out with for daily practice. However, it does take commitment and dedication for there will be all things that can deter you. Everything possible that can deter you from that practice will come along your path from time to time. This is the reason why ceremony and ritual are also important as a way of focusing that prayer and meditation and also as a way to continue to dedicate yourself to your regular practice and to your visions and your purpose in life.

I encourage you to do dedication ceremonies, ceremonies where you dedicate your intentions and powerfully state your will. One powerful dedication ceremony that is performed regularly amongst all the human race is the wedding ceremony. It is when two people dedicate themselves to one another. Dedicate their intentions and make vows to one another. Ceremonies like this are not intended to just be performed only once in a couples life. Nor is it to be the only type of dedication ceremony that one will experience in ones life, for there are so many other things that you need to dedicate yourselves to. Open your creativity to where you have the creative flow coming through, the intuition coming through because you will need to create some of these rituals and ceremonies for yourselves. You will not find them in a book, you will not find them being offered by others though there are those teachers and ministers who are being called to create new ceremonies and new rituals in order to serve the needs of the people during this modern age.

Ceremonies that dedicate yourself to your higher purpose, to your higher calling, to your great work even if you do not know what that is, you begin by doing a ceremony of dedicating yourself to know your great work and to live that and to do that no matter what it takes. Simply doing a ceremony where THAT is your dedication, where THAT is the vow you make. And doing that and making that vow and coupling that with the making of an offering in whatever way is right. It can be through an offering of lighting a candle, or an offering of something that you give to the earth. Anything that comes from your heart and has meaning and symbolism to you and whose symbolism has deep meaning that speaks deep into your unconscious mind will be valuable. The power of what you set into motion will be beyond what your comprehensive mind will be able to comprehend and understand. You will set energies into motions. Do dedication ceremonies for anything that you wish to dedicate yourself to, for anything in which you are struggling with. You can use journaling as a tool to help you get clear on what it is that you want to say and want to dedicate yourself to.

Also important in addition to dedication ceremonies are purification ceremonies and rituals that help to give back and balance the great imbalance that exists between so much of human kind and the earth. There is a sacred law, a natural law, a universal law, that all must live within. And that is in order for all things to be in balance there must be a balance of giving and receiving. That which you give and that which you receive must be kept in balance. This balance has been thrown off now for quite some time and will intensify during this age of which I am speaking. This imbalance will intensify unless you do some form of ritual, prayer, or meditation regularly. Focus your will and your intention on being in balance and bringing this imbalance of that which is given and that which is received back into harmony once again.

One of the ways in which this can be done, and there are many ways, is through simple rituals where you offer back something to the earth for all that you have received. You may not necessarily think that you receive much or that you take much from the earth, but the modern lives in which most of the people listening to this and who will come into contact with these words, the modern lives which you lead takes great amounts from the earth, each and every one of you. In order for this balance to be restored, you must give back. It doesn’t have to be great things at first, but small things done in a great way. For the healing and the restoration and also the creation of the Golden Age within this Iron Age depends upon not necessarily what you do, but how you do it, the consciousness in which you do it. Small things done in a great way with great intention, with great love, with great sincerity, with great compassion will have just as much an effect as any large thing that you could do or offer.

I say 'that you could do,' because it is also a possibility that you are offering back your ritual as an action in the world. An action that you choose to take for your rituals can very well be actions that you choose to take to serve this world. But there also needs to be the other types of rituals, the small offerings. So what I am going to do, is outline for you a ritual that you can do, that anyone can do and encourage anyone and everyone who hears of this ritual to do it once, twice, as much as you like, as much as you can whenever you feel you need it.

There is preparation for this ritual. First and foremost the intention of this ritual is to bring you back into balance, to bring this imbalance that I have been speaking of back into harmony once again. To bring you into balance with remembering who you are, with remembering what you need to remember. And to bring you into balance with your dharma, your purpose within this age. Each of you hearing this message or who may read these words from this message or are coming across this, it is being brought into your path because you have a specific role and purpose that you are playing within this age for the creation of the Golden Age within the Iron Age. It will also align you with Divinity in such a way that can bring you great insight, vision, and intuition.

For preparation, first begin with the day before choosing to do this ritual. The day before fast from all foods except fruits and vegetables that are raw and super fresh and alive. Begin also the day before by bathing or showering oneself in Rose water. Also do this on the day you do the ritual, before performing the ritual. Rosewater can be pre-made or rosewater can be made simply through soaking rose petals in water. The day of performing the ritual, bathe yourself in this rosewater and apply to all of the energy centers of your body, the essence or essential oil of angelica or white angelica. Wear the color of white as your dominant color of clothing, but pick any other color that connects to you that may have meaning or purpose to you that you would also add as an accent. And pick ahead of time a power place for you, preferably a place where all of the elements are present: earth, air, water, and fire. And if it is a place where you cannot have fire or build fire, do the ceremony during the day on a day in which the sun is high in the sky and the fire is there present in the light of that sun. Doing it in a power place also is important and anytime that you can do this ceremony at a time that is in alignment with sacred time, sacred times for the earth or sacred high holy days attributed to religious spiritual days, special days of significance. Equinoxes, solstices, new moons, full moons, eclipses, as well as any other significant holy days. Any day will work for this ritual, but to get the most effect of it, align yourself with a sacred space and sacred time. It may also be a sacred time for you such as a birthday, an anniversary, an anniversary of a passage or a transformation, or anniversary of a death. It may also be a sacred time for you personally, anything that makes it sacred to you. Take with you offerings, an offering for the earth, for the air, for the fire, for the water.

For the water take sea salt, for the earth take cornmeal, for the air take a feather to be offered to the air and for the fire take wood, wood that you have chosen specifically as an offering and that you offer with specific intentions of gratefulness and thankfulness.

One of the main things that you also need to give back is your gratitude. When these things are offered, when you go to the sacred space, on this sacred time, with these offerings, offer them to the earth, air, fire, and water with great gratitude for all that you have received. Offer them with humility, with gratitude, with compassion, with love. Be truly thankful for the many blessings in your life and the complete interdependence of all of those blessings and the very fact that your life is dependent upon the earth and the air and the fire and the water.

Then also take an offering for all of the angels and guides that work in your life. For all of the angels and guides that are in a relationship with you that are constantly there in your company, in your presence at all times, being with you, loving you, working with you side by side. Doing with you, not for you, but with you, as your constant companions in the spiritual world. Take an offering and offer it with the same gratitude of giving something back, with the same attitude of gratitude, thankfulness, appreciation, humility and love. Let that offering be whatever speaks to you. It could be a crystal or a stone of some kind. It could be anything that represents that to you but make sure it is not anything that will harm the earth, as you will be leaving this offering behind. You will not take it back with you for you must give something here. Make sure it is something natural and pure. For that is what the nature of our relationship is with you and that is the nature of who we are. Our nature is natural and pure. In fact we are known, we are recognized through our purity, through our clarity. So remember that in the choosing of your offering.

And last but certainly not least, for in essence it is the most important, bring an offering in which you offer to the Creator, to the God of all beings, of all life of all creation, the Divine Mother and Father of the entire universe. The most important thing when choosing this offering once again is to make sure that it is pure and natural and that you offer your love, that you offer your love. Gratitude will help get you there. Concentrate on 108 prayers of gratitude that you offer to the Creator. And after the 108 prayers of gratitude your heart will be open enough to be able to offer your love and your praise.

Through praising you offer your love and this brings me full circle to the way that I began this message. Through the reverberation of those holy name vibrations, through the holy names of the Creator praise and love can be offered and connection and communion can come into being. Union with the Divine, within your own soul for truly you are one, your soul and the Lover of Soul. You truly are one. After making all of those offerings, sit in silence. Meditate on your breath and be fully present in the moment. Take in the fullness of the moment, listening to all sounds, feeling all feelings. In that meditation which is also a meditation that you can do at all times, focus on quieting your mind, but heightening your awareness, to where all that you see, all that you hear, all that you feel, all that you smell, all that is stimulating your being is perceived as God’s touch. Perceived as the Creator everywhere. Omnipresent, Omnipotent, all around you and within you. There will be peace in this state, there is love in this state, and there is joy, joy of connection, joy of union and communion. If you attempt to do this meditation after making your offerings and you still do not reach some semblance of what I described, then return to prayer and in your prayers purify yourself through offering over all the things that burden you through offering over, giving it over, giving it away those fears, those doubts, the anger, the pessimism, the cynicism, the worry, the anxiety, whatever it is. Pray until you feel it release and shift. Until at least in that moment and in that moment is the most important moment for current moment is the only moment, in that moment you have given it away and then return to the meditation once again.

If you are in a power place that is not only a power place for you but is also a vortex of energy, a power place for the earth and you do this meditation you will find it much easier to do. Currently, the energetic body of the earth is being realigned to help to compensate for the things that are being done to the physical body of the earth by the harm that is being done by unconscious human action. The energy body is being changed. The energy body is being transformed. There is currently the undergoing of new power places on this earth and transformation of some of the places that used to be power places that will no longer be. The new power places will come into being. There will actually be some shifts in the locations of some of the chakras within the earth. But then there are those chakras that will remain that have been chakras, vortexes of energy, power places on the earth for a great long period of time, long before this age and will continue through this age. Those chakras, those power places, the energies there are being amplified and being made stronger than ever before. At some point in time everyone who is in alignment with this message will be called to connect with them and to do ceremony and ritual. Either the one that I have outlined here or others that you will create or will be channeled through in the future in those places for your personal healing and balance, for the earth’s healing and re-balance, for the healings of all beings everywhere and for the re-establishment of heaven on earth during this age of the waning.

For the victory of the light I offer this message to you. Victory to that light and to all beings everywhere."

ANGELIC MESSAGE:
FROM ARCHANGEL URIEL
CHANNELED BY REV. ANA JONES

" I bring to you today the divine white light that is the light associated with my energy and associated with my presence, offering to you once again the blessing of this light to guide you through these words, to guide your path, and every step that you take. It is the divine white light that is my gift to you and it is being received in many ways through these words as well as through an energy transmission, as well as through an energetic upgrade for lack of better terms…to put it in terms of which you can understand in your modern day society and technology. The Divine is giving you an energetic upgrade, upgrading your inner operating systems, re-creating your image of yourself, your ideas, your values, your principles, your truths. You are being upgraded on all levels of your being to the resonance of pure truth, of pure light.

I am the archangel Uriel, your friend and your companion.

The gratitude that fills your heart at this time, it is the fuel for your continued growth. Focus on it, let it grow bigger and greater as it is touching your heart deeply, it is expanding your heart. Gratitude is opening your heart up to more and more blessings that are meant to be given and received to you, through you and by you. Gratitude is like the currency for all in The Universe. Just like you have the currency of money that allows everything to be accessed by you in your current day, culture, and society, there is a currency in the spiritual world also. The spiritual currency is not a material thing. It has no material form. The spiritual currency is gratitude and the more gratitude you have, the more grateful you are… the wealthier you are! The more prosperous, abundant, and sustained in that abundance you are because it is the currency that brings you true wealth. Gratitude is the currency that opens up the access to everything that you are inviting, opening to, and welcoming into your life. Feel it, express it and let it be the currency that you base your daily life upon…. being grateful for all that you have and all that you are in the moment, here and now.

You are being asked to live in the now…to be fully present more than any time previously in this lifetime. Your financial situation is requiring this of you. The spiritual lessons that you are learning are requiring this of you. The lessons you are learning to develop and grow in the path that you are pursuing are requiring this of you.

Releasing of the fears for what might be, or what could be, fears for the future, fears that come from the past…releasing of those fears is an essential part of living in the present. In fact, allowing yourself to be fully present, coming into your presence in the now; being in your presence in the now is the way to dissolve those fears of the past and for the future.

Past, present and future truly are one. They are not the way that you think of them and that you perceive of them in your culture and society in this linear way. They all interconnect…the place where they interconnect is the now. That place of which the past, present and future interconnect and become one is the now and it is all there is.

Do not be afraid to make investments in yourself, your life path, and your life purpose, with the money you have saved for your future because the future is in the now. To save and to put aside money for specific goals and intentions; this is a wise and frugal thing to do, especially from the material standpoint. However, there is also this misconception that you must save for your future. The misconception lies in the thinking that the present, ‘the now’ is not the future. For indeed it is. And so it is, every moment.

This truth is what you are waking up to… learning that “in the now” everything that you think, say, do, feel, want, intend, and use your will for; has a ripple effect throughout all of time. Here in the now you set things into motion of what will be. Not just for tomorrow, but throughout the whole wheel of time, past, present, and future.

One of the reasons why you and so many others have not been ready to wake up to this is because of the responsibility that waking up to this truth brings. It brings a great level of responsibility! That you must be responsible for every thought, word, action, deed, feeling, intention, use of your will, and use of your creative power that was given to you through your free will. This does not mean that everything has to be serious, quite the contrary. It is a shifting out of everything being so serious and taken so seriously and into a lightening that is also happening in your life.

Accept the responsibility of living in the now and all of that which spiritual empowerment and spiritual enlightenment brings to you.

Accept the responsibilty with a light heart, with a grateful heart, with a lightness in your body, a smile on your face, a laughter in your voice.

Accept that responsibility for so many have resisted fully awakening and fully living in the now as an empowered co-creator of their reality because of the fear of this responsibility and because of the misjudgment that being responsible means that you will not have a joyful life, thinking that you cannot enjoy.

Oh, it is true, you will not enjoy things the same. It changes. Enjoyment becomes much, more fulfilling. This is what you are seeking…you are seeking fulfillment. There are lots of things that can be enjoyed without any long lasting fulfillment and those things, while they are important in different stages of one’s life…it is crucially important to seek the level of joy that you are seeking; that brings you the level of fulfillment that your soul desires.

Continue to seek relationships with people and organizations that are in alignment with you. However, know that no matter what, no matter where you go, no matter how much alignment there is; that there will still be negative energies, opposing forces, dark forces for lack of any better word to use for them. Not dark in the sense of no light but in the sense that the light is being obscured, the light is being shadowed or overshadowed, shadow forces maybe yet be an even better terminology to use to describe this to you. All energies and entities are ultimately of the light, in the light, attracted to the light and attracted by the light…all energies and all entities. This is an important lesson to learn and to always be aware of.

Yet, in this day and age, you will not be able to find any anyone or any place for which those shadow energies are not there, to some degree. Your own self included, because the shadow energies are also in you. You have a shadow just as everyone else does and the journey of enlightenment is the journey of taking all aspects that are within that shadow and returning it to the light. This is why it is called enlightenment. In the light…everything in and of that light nothing remaining in the shadow.

So the next step for you is to not judge another’s shadow but to look within your own and to do some of your own shadow work, knowing that this will be many, many layers as it is for every human being. There are layers to the shadow. The shadows that you carry. The shadows that you have created. You’ve all created them, you all have them, this shadow side, the shadow self. Look to excavate the shadow, transform it to enlightenment.

Many fear the shadow because they think that there are great, terrible things there. While indeed some of your least favorite things about yourself have been pressed into your shadow, oppressed and suppressed into the shadow; what I can tell you is that it is lined with gold in the sense that what mostly it is made up of are all of the greatest gifts, strengths, powers, talents, traits that you have, powers, abilities that you have. Not only as human beings but as multi-dimensional spiritual beings that have been oppressed there, hidden there. In some cases hidden there to be kept “safe” for that day in which it was “safe” to return the back to the light.

All of those thoughts, all of the feelings that create something to be pushed into the shadow, all the decisions that have been made that created something of the shadow are not based in the light of truth. But regardless, they are your reality and the reality of what you are experiencing needs to be honored but so does the truth. The truth is that everything there needs to be brought into the light.

As the shadow is being healed and transformed into it’s original light state, there is work to do in the world. There are actions to take, others to meet. You are where you are. You are here, now. Make the most out of where you are here and now.

Experience the fullness of each and every step of the journey, for you are forgetting that ‘life purpose’ is not about a destination. It’s not about a goal…someplace that you are meant to go to, get to and do while you are there as much as it is about the journey itself. Are there points of completion along the path…yes. There will be many points of completion along the path and with every completion; a new beginning. It is on the journey that the purpose of life is fulfilled.

The more self realized you are, the greater capacity you will have to serve with true respect and greater gratitude. The greater your gratitude, your spiritual currency, that currency will draw into your life a multitude of experiences for you to have financial security.

Remember that money is energy and there is an abundance of it; even in times in which it seems that there’s not. This is one of the mistakes that people are making right now in regards to the economic changes that are happening in your society.

Are there times in which the tides are high and the tides are low, yes. The tides are real. These energetic tides sweep through everything they don’t just affect the ocean; they also affect your emotions, they also affect your bodies. The energetic tides affect your monetary system which is an energy-based system like everything else.

Is this a time period of low tide? Yes, absolutely.

Is low tide worse than high tide? No it depends upon how you make it, what you make of it; what you do with it. It is no better and no worse than high tide. In fact, great loss can also occur at high tide just as great loss can occur at low tide; depending upon how you work with it, what you do with it. In this time of low tide for the economic energies; for the economic systems, your economic models are needing to be transformed which is ultimately the reason why it is happening in the first place. It is time for a major upgrade and transformation to all operating systems!

Stop being afraid and embrace what this time is about! Consciously choose to act and react. Consciously choose what you want and what you want to create for yourself. By doing so, you will create a whole new energetic reaction to this time which will shift the energy flow.

It is not possible for any of you at this time to change the current of the tide but it is possible and probable, and you have been given many blessings and abilities to do so, for you to live abundantly and prosperously within it. This does not necessarily mean extravagance, for abundance and prosperity in your modern day world has become synonymous with extravagance for many people and you know that this not necessarily the case. They are not synonymous with each other. In fact, simplicity and living simply; naturally and simply, and allowing things to grow naturally, simply, organically…this can bring great abundance and prosperity. This is an abundant way to live life.

However, do not let the choices that you are making to live simply and to simplify your life, to simplify your finances, make you think in term of lack or feel in terms of lack. For when you think and feel as if you are lacking, you will only manifest more lack for you are denying the truth… you are repressing the gratitude for the abundance which is there already…pushing it into the shadow.

Clear from your own shadow any disrespect that may be there and you will not attract it in the same way again. But this does not mean that the shadow will not be present in the organizations and in the people you will be working with in the future…it will. I guarantee it. However, you will attract differently, manifest and co-create differently, as that which is in your own shadow is brought to the light and you will be able to react differently. Thus, you will be able to be a more empowered agent of change.

When I say clear out any disrespect that’s in your own shadow, this means any way in which you currently disrespect yourself or any one else. Respect is foundational. Respect and cooperation are at the very foundation and cornerstones that all of the angels, all of us are always teaching about…the foundation to all that we do…the foundation to all that you can do with each other in your relationships.

Bring it all into the light."

"You cannot solve a problem with the same consciousness that created it."
- Albert Einstein

ECONOMIC PARADIGM SHIFT 2008-2012

"Money is energy. How you relate to it, whether you relate to it in fear or whether you relate to it in trust determines a great, great deal.... What you choose to consciously co-create can change everything!"- Archangel Michael

Aloha Everyone! In this current Celestial Voice Newsletter I am continuing to share with all of you a series of ongoing messages that I have been receiving from the Archangel Michael. In this recent message from Michael he was asked new questions about 2008 and the times of prophecy we are living in. This message has been excerpted from a personal reading that was channeled in spoken word and edited into written word with the intention of sharing it with a wider audience. In this message and many others I have channeled from the Angels this year, they directly address the important issue of our Economy, and share with us many universal themes that all of the angels are attempting to teach us right now. I have received so many angelic messages this year about the paradigm shift now occuring in our economic system, this message is one of great importance. I hope that you find this message from Archangel Michael as inspirational and helpful as I have. Its message has brought me some certainty during these uncertain times. The subject of his message is one that is relevant to all of us.
Blessings of Love & Light, Rev. Ana Jones
P.S. If you want to learn more about Archangel Michael's Messages and Teachings for 2012 consider ordering my DVD/film '2012 The Sacred Union' which is a live recording of a deep trance channeling of the Archangel Michael (see details at www.AngelicCommunication.com)

ANGELIC MESSAGE From Archangel Michael
channeled by Rev. Ana Jones

"It is I, the Archangel Michael that chooses to hear the prayers, questions, and concerns that you verbalize today. I hear that which is on your heart. You ask about the collective destinies for you, your family members, and for others in this year of 2008 and in the year 2012. What I can tell you is that even though some things are already set into motion, have already been co-created and will simply come about, that many things are still in the process of co-creation. All of 2008 will continue in an on-going trend and pattern of awakening; to be the fully, conscious co-creators that you are meant to be. 2008 will continue this ongoing awakening and it will continue to bring about new opportunities and new experiences to see how your collective consciousness and your individual consciousness interact. How your individual consciousness co-creates with the collective and vice versa.

The most immediate opportunity to see this and to know this right now is with the experience that is happening within your 2008 economy. Your nationwide economy, your global economy, they are all now seen and experienced as interconnected because truly they have always been and always will be. There is no way to disconnect them nor is it ever meant to be. Your personal economy is interconnected with the nationwide economy, with the global economy. It is through the economy that first and foremost, this awareness of interconnection is coming to the forefront in an entirely new way this year…and new responsibilities are coming with it.

For example, when fear ripples through the individual and collective consciousness it has an effect on the individual and the whole. Fears at this time for the nationwide, personal and global economies are very high and it is the personal responsibility of each and every person who is a part of your collective energy field to not respond or react to it in fear. Do not respond in fear, this is my advice to you and to all of your family members. And not just when it comes to the economy but in all things! Again the economy is presenting an immediate opportunity all throughout the year of 2008, a great opportunity to see this interconnected web, to see this interconnected energy, and to understand that all things are energy.

Money is energy. How you relate to it, whether you relate to it in fear or whether you relate to it in trust determines a great, great deal. The markets, the businesses, all of them…are run by people; all of them directly influenced by the consciousness and the energy of each individual and of the collective whole. This opportunity will help people to see how they react and how they choose to consciously create. What you choose to consciously co-create can change everything!

There are ebbs and tides, natural cycles that cannot be avoided. When the high tide comes in, you know for certain that there will be a period when the tide will be low. These natural cycles of the earth affect all energy fields. Just as there is a full moon, there will once again be a new moon and these cycles are constant. They are eternal patterns within the earth. All frequencies, all energies in the earth flow in cycles including your economic energies. It is good to know this because it is good to know that while much of this is being co-created and can be changed with responsible, conscious co-creation, the economic system is also subject to these natural fluctuations. These ebbs and tides are all natural energy flows in this material world. Knowing this also helps you to know how to plan for what you want to co-create.

Know what the energetic environment is that you are co-creating within, knowing and accepting that you cannot change the natural cycles. This indeed is a time of ‘low tide.’ It affects your choices as to how you choose to co-create but it’s nothing to be afraid of. There are different ways of co-creating during full moon time and others during new moon time. You can make something positive come about at both…high tide and low tide. Both are positive: one is not good, the other is not bad. This time of low tide for the economy is not to be feared and is not to be seen as bad but as a part of the whole and responded to through that consciousness. In this way you and your family members will be able to prosper through it all.

Prospering may look different, it may feel different but it is still prospering none the less. Be very careful and be very cautious to not limit your idea of what prospering is, what prospering feels like, what prospering looks like. What I can tell you is that you and many others have limited this idea and feeling of prospering and it is important to open yourselves to not limit in any way what prosperity and abundance can be like. Be open to all forms of its manifestation and you will be able to help the others in your family to do the same…to be a mentor to others that you know. There are fears to overcome. The only way to overcome these fears is through their medicine. Use the medicines of the fears. The medicines of fear are faith, trust, and courage. These are things that you do not have to wait until the absence of fear to feel. You have to feel them, you have to focus on making them stronger, focus on making them the single most important conscious experience that you have and the fears will then begin to dissolve. Feel, know, focus and strengthen your faith, your trust, your courage. Strengthen them and the fears will resolve and dissolve. Even if they don’t completely go away, they will be transformed. Your fears will be transformed by your conscious action of staying focused on the intention of what you want and why you want it…choose to create for yourself.

A great deal of what is to transpire in 2012 is still being co-created by your intentions. The messages that I am bringing through this channel and so many others all over the world that I am giving messages, energy, and support to are to help all of you to be empowered, to be the co-creators that you are, to get clear in the intentions of what you want to create for yourself and what you want to create for this world and focus on it. You are not to worry about or to concern yourself about what will happen but to concern yourself with what you want to happen and to stay focused on that with great enthusiasm and great discipline. This is a required discipline, for your minds are so easily distracted.
We know that you want to create healing. Right now it's OK to keep your intentions general and not to have a lot of specifics. However, as time is unfolding and as time is quickening there is a need to get more specific.

The role that you are meant to play as a Conscious Co-Creator in the 2012 era will still be decided…choose what you want it to be. The reason why I have called it ‘the sacred union’ and ‘the time of sacred convergence’ is that there is an alignment with the creative center, the creative power of your Universe that is happening and taking place with the creative within your self and The Creator. This is a powerful time of creation and it hasn’t been created yet. Yes, it is true that there are some things that have already been created, that have already been set into motion. Even those things that have been created, that have been set into motion, even they can be changed and transformed.

For example, there are many things that have been created, set into motion already with your earth and your earth’s climate and your earth’s environment. You have seen some of them manifesting, you have seen some of them happening and yes, there will be some of them that will still continue to happen and occur. All of the things that your scientists have been telling you is happening and occurring due to what has been created thus far is happening, but I am attempting to tell you that every single one of those things has a solution and that each of you have yet to create it. Create it in the realm of all possibilities; create it in yourselves, in your visions and your dreams. Create it in how you live your lives, create it by dreaming new dreams and by being who you are for your life purpose, what you are called here or created here to do. It comes from who you are and extends out from who you are…it’s not just something that you’re meant to come here to do. It’s someone that you are meant to be.

Focus on who you want to be and being who you are…knowing your true identity is a key in all of this for everyone. Misidentification with the physical body, over identification with the physical senses, misidentifying yourself with your mind and your emotions. All of these things have caused great, great problems and difficulties throughout the world and in your individual lives. As a result there has been a great amount of fragmentation and division, struggling in duality, that is meant to be shifted and transformed during this time of sacred convergence and sacred union.

What ‘sacred union’ means is coming back into that wholeness, that oneness, that union that already is. Returning once again into that state of oneness and connectedness that is your true state, returning your consciousness, returning your creation and your creativity and your creative processes into that alignment.

Everything that is happening with the energy crisis, with the economic crisis, with many of the things that you will see and hear being talked about as crises during this time, this year and the next few years to come are all opportunities. Each and every one of them presenting the opportunity to shift in consciousness to co-create consciously from a greater place of interconnection vs. a place of divisiveness vs. a place of separation, vs. inner consciousness that is lost or trapped in the illusion of separation.

There is individuality and there always will be individuality, but individuality does not exist outside of connected oneness. Individual yet indivisible. Your economies are showing you this, your energy dependencies and crises that are happening and will happen are showing you this.…all of it is a part of this sacred convergence, this sacred union, this return to the sacred awareness of being ‘individual yet indivisible’ and of being the co-creators that you are meant to be as a collective.

Being in right relationship with us, being in right relationship with others in your life…being in right relationship with yourself…being in right relationship with the Divine and with the earth as a whole. This is alignment…what I’m speaking of when I speak of right relationship, is being in alignment. Everything must be in alignment because 2012 is a sacred convergence, a sacred alignment, a time of alignment that is to bring everything into alignment…by doing so you will thrive, and the earth will thrive. Miraculous things can happen and will happen.

At first it is best not to look externally for the miracles…look internally. Look internally into yourself and the lives of those you love to see the real power and miracle of what is happening. Look internally and not externally. Externally it will seem as if things are not going well with the economy with many of the crises that I’m talking to you about that will be discussed more and more, that will come up onto the forefront, more and more. If you look at it just from the external it will give you a false appearance. Look at it internally…through the opportunity that it provides. This time of alignment provides the opportunity to change things from the inside out. This is true change…real change…everlasting change. You will see this in your own healing journey with your physical body. Only that which you have changed from the inside out will be long lasting. Change it from the inside out and it will be permanent, long lasting healing, permanent long lasting change.

There is no doubt in my mind or the mind of any of the others whom I am connected with in the angelic and spirit realm that you will be able to do this and move through this with beauty and with grace."

"When Angels are invoked there is a fascinating experience of never feeling alone, and the sense of always being in the midst of a constantly unfolding creation that is rich, awesome, brilliant, and complete. Each and every moment is stunning!"- Rabbi David Cooper

HEALING YOUR RELATIONSHIPS

"Make yourself familiar with the angels and behold them frequently in spirit;for without being seen, they are present with you."- St. Francis De Sales

In this Celestial Voice newsletter I am quoting from a very long message from Archangel Michael that I have published in my book 'The Teachings of Archangel Michael: A Handbook for Humanity.' The Angels are always with us, always helping to guide, direct, and protect us. They simply ask us to remember them and call upon them for their assistance. When we call upon the angels they know that we are consciously connecting with them and that it is our will and intention to be supported and guided, thus they are able to help us even more. The subject of this message is one that pertains to us all.

ANGELIC MESSAGE From Archangel Michael
Excerpted from the book "Teachings of Archangel Michael: A Handbook for Humanity" channeled and published by Rev. Ana Jones

Healing Your Relationships with Each Other

"Your relationships with one another are the key to the future and to the evolution of humanity and life on this earth! Everything is in relationship to one another--- EVERYTHING! You may think you are hearing these words and phrases as separate from one another, yet they are not. You think you are separate from every other thing, you are not. You may know this with your mind; your intellect is beginning to know this. Yet the key to really experiencing it is to engage in those relationships to the point where that knowledge is no longer just intellectual but it is experienced wisdom and you are truly able to live fully engaged in those relationships.

Take for example the relationship you have with this earth. Not only are the relationships with your family and the people that you come across important, but so is the relationship you have with this planet. This planet is a living being referred to by many, many names. Often referred to as the mother, this planet, in and of itself, is a being that supports life beyond what you are even able to comprehend. There is so much life that you are connected with---you are in relationship with it all.

As you are trying to focus on relationship and healing your relationships, you can't just focus on one only. Focusing in on one or two relationships and trying only to be the best, do the best, and love to the utmost that is possible in a compassionate way can help you, but it does not end there. Expand that out to others. It does not end there for all things are connected and you are in relationship with [beings] far beyond. So honor your relationship with the earth. Honor your relationship consciously by knowing that the relationship is there and engage in that relationship.

How do you do that? Think about how you engage in any relationship.

Think about your relationship with the person who is closest to you.

Think about what it takes, what is required of you to be in that relationship?

Think about what is involved in a day-to-day relationship: time, awareness, conscientiousness, humility, putting aside pride and the ego, truthfulness, faith, trust.

It also takes energy that you give and receive and taking the time to interact and to exchange with those energies.

It is difficult for you to take the time to interact and exchange your energies with the earth. It is also difficult for you to take the time to interact and exchange your energies with one another. The barriers that you have put up with one another are so strong and so powerful. Fear has truly caused great defense systems, shields, to be put up that disconnect you from the earth and all that you are related to on the earth, and from each other. If those very same defensive shields and mechanisms that you put up disconnect you from those things, how much more do you think they actually block you in your awareness of all that lies beyond the physical into the spiritual realms and the subtle beings such as ourselves?

One of our great concerns right now is to dissolve those barriers that you put up. Being with the earth and interconnecting and relating with the earth can help you dissolve your interpersonal barriers.

Exercises for Dissolving Interpersonal Barriers:

Sit alone on a beach and look out on the ocean, sky, sun, and the earth and all the creatures in their full glory and you will find that many of those defenses and shields and protective mechanisms and barriers that you have put up will start to dissolve. Yet bring people into that picture and that equation and you will start to see that [the barriers come up] once again.

Connect with the earth---this will help you.

Connecting with the earth in such a way will help you to become aware of how those barriers are there. But you will still need, each and every one of you (for those who have not reached full enlightenment all have this problem) will still need to work on the barriers and defenses that you have between each other.

Yes there are many things that people do unconsciously that can hurt another person. There are ways that each person, even a compassionate person who has fully good intentions, uses their energy to control and manipulate others in ways that they are totally unaware of. But still it is important to open your heart and extend compassion, and to deepen the relationship, to take time for one another. Do not defend against one another or be fearful with one another. When someone comes knocking on your door do not be afraid. When someone passes you on the street do not be too rushed to smile, to say hello.

The modern society in which you find yourself living functions in [rushed] segments of communication that are just sound bites. Communication needs to extend ultimately beyond that. When there is not time to say more than a few words to someone, make sure that the words that you do say are said truly with an open heart and without those defenses there.

Your Most Important Relationship of All


There are many among you who believe harmonious relationships among human beings are not possible ultimately. They believe that true peace on earth is not possible. They have given up. This message is a message of hope because we have not ever given up on it. For not only do we know that it is possible, we know it is probable and we know it is destined to be. We have reminded you that you are in our company and we also want to remind you that we are helping you and assisting you in this. The relationship we have with you is a special relationship and our relationship is meant to help you in all other relationships.

The reason why we are with you is to be in deep relationship so that you can be helped and supported in all other relationships, and especially in the most important relationship of all, which I have yet to mention. That relationship is with the Divine One, with the One who has been called by numerous names. It is the relationship that you have with the one named God, for that relationship is the most important relationship of all relationships that we are helping to guide you in and encouraging you to explore.

So as you are working on improving your relationships, remember THAT being--- the greatest relationship of all. Your relationship with that being is the greatest relationship which each and every one of you seeks after whether you know it or not. That love, the Divine Love, is the love that you seek after, long for, long to know and remember in every moment. This love needs to be consciously present in you, in all you speak, and in all the relationships that you have. That Presence is here; that love is here now in these words, Divine Love.


We the Angels love you---know that we love you!"

LIVE FROM YOUR TRUE WILL

ANGELIC MESSAGE as channeled by Rev. Ana Jones:

"One of the many things that we can teach you is to share with you teachings about your true will. Mere wants and desires are not equal to the true will. For knowing your true will is also knowing the will of the Divine. The will of the Source of Creation. Your will and the will of God, of All That Is, are one on the highest level.

So, when you ask, "what is my true will," you are also asking- what is the will of the Divine in my life? If you really chose to know it then it will be revealed.

To choose to know it means letting go of what the ego thinks, wants, and thinks it desires. Accepting whatever that truth ultimately is. Accepting it with an open heart, accepting it with a willingness to act on it once it is revealed to you.

There is no greater harm that can be done than the way you harm yourself by not acting on your true will once it is revealed!

Right now your heart speaks to you and you are at times confused in discerning what it says clearly. Within your heart is the Divine teaching you and guiding you, instructing you in your heart ---speaking to you.

The confusion needs to be replaced with the clarity of discernment.

There was a time when you had great access to knowing your true will and the Divine Will. You are returning to this with innocence and with love. Returning to the inner knowing that you had as a child. As your heart speaks to you now, what you hear is: it is time for change.

Already within you, you have changed and you have transformed and yet youa are still transforming. As above, so below - As within, So without !

Be Patient! The outer world must reflect the changes that have occurred within you so that there can be harmony once again. Until this happens there is disharmony, tension, anxiety, and what you call stress which is a culmination of all of these and more.

We ask you to have faith and to trust. To deepen your faith in the trust that you already have to a level that you didn't think possible. We don't ask this of you for ourselves. We encouraged you to have this for we know that this is what you will need to change the outer world. The world around you needs to reflect the essence and the truth of the soul.

Your fears are very strong, even though you are not fully aware of them. In this time your fears are your greatest obstacles and it is your fear that can hurt you the most. More than any other thing , more than lack of money, changing jobs, changing physical locations... more than any of those things, none of those things, nor even all of those things together. Nothing can equal the damage that your fears can do to you, causing you not to live by your true will.

Face your fears head on, not with arrogance but with love, not with greed but with compassion, not with ego but with heart!

This is how you must face the people that you interact with. The people who's lives are also co-creating the course that sets your future. You must reveal and reflect the truth within your heart to them. The truth of what you feel you need. Believe that all things are possible.

We will never say to you anything else, accept that what you desire is possible because it falls with the realm of all possibilities!

You and others like you stand a the brink of a time in which you can make those possibilities a reality. You have the power, the strength and the will, and you are coupling it with your faith and your deepened connection with the soul and to the Divine Great Spirit that has created you and makes all possibilities a reality.

There is but one key to make the impossible possible... be sure that all you aspire to, dream of, and wish to create, is of your true will.

Within you is your souls still quiet voice that speaks softly, lovingly, gently, compassionately, your truest will. You must have subtle ears to hear it and an open mind to receive it, and a clear intent as to what you will do with those messages.

We tell you that you are hearing it, you hear it in your heart, but you are still not clear on what your true will is. Nothing manifests for your highest good unless it is your true will.

If you want us to tell you what you should do and what you should not do, we can not, for that is not our role and that is not how we serve you best..we the Angels serve only your true will and the Divine Will.

We help to illuminate your true will--- for you and all to see."
