Angelic Counsel

Hello again!

Here I am on the healing side of the flu and grateful for all the help from my angels.  In a previous post I reported what our angels had to say about their true identities, so I won't repeat that here except to say that to simplify things, I'll simply call them our angels.

Two weeks ago I had scheduled two clients for yesterday afternoon.  Then the flu set in on Christmas Eve and I wondered if I should reschedule.  But I asked my angels for help and knew I could do the sessions without symptoms.  So yesterday morning I lay down for one of my meditation naps, thanking them for their support.  As I woke they offered this:
"You achieve more than you know.  When you build the link between us, you raise the consciousness of the planet.  When you build your immune system by allowing us to help you, the immune system of the planet is improved.  You can see why when you ask for our support, in addition to personal help, you/we are supporting the condition of the planet."

This reminds me of the message from my father shortly after I opened to channel in '83.  He passed at age 40 when I was 13, so issues remained in our mutual assignments.  He said, "Know that when you heal something about us, you are also healing me."  

This is one of the pivotal messages I've received.  It opened my thinking to consider that nothing we do is solitary.  We are all engaged in a unified purpose.  The Consciousness is a single thing in which we all swim, like whales in the oceans.  What one does affects each other one, somehow, in some way.  

We say we want to make a contribution, to serve, to see  a reason for being.  Here it is.  If I say I want peace on Earth, then to achieve it, truly it must begin within me.  And when we consider that our communal immune system is affected by building stronger links with our celestial ancestors, then I am excited.  Amen.

With love and respect,
Phyl-EL

Grieving Part II

Good Morning!

A follow-up to yesterday's post, to report that deep crying is very good medicine.  Yes, I took my homework seriously, and some deep crying yesterday really lightened my load.

Do you also observe that logic can get in the way of a good cry?  While I was terribly hurt for my nephew, who lost his dear furry friend in tragic incident, my head got in the way of deep grieving. After a short cry, I carried the grief until our angels prompted us yesterday.  Then the waves of grief came up. I not only grieved for my nephew but also for other situations I had only briefly touched.

Sometimes my head tells me that I don't need to indulge myself in crying or shouting.  Sometimes when prayer or deep breathing is the way I choose to support a person or situation I put aside the grief that tries to rise to the top.  And there are times when I've cried deeply about something over time, I feel like it's too much to cry even one more time.

Whenever I substitute any alternative to deep grieving the weight of it haunts me.  As the angels reminded us, depression is always the result of suppressed emotion.

This reminds me of our friend, Barbara, who lived her last two years in a state of joy.  Maybe it's more accurate to say that her final stage of life was emotionally spontaneous.  Because, while her joy was authentic, when she felt sad she simply burst into tearsBarbara lived in Wholeness.  She taught us so much and continues to enrich our lives. Thank you, Barbara.

Crying deeply means letting it all hang out.  I've cried a lot in this life, but often it has been what I call "sideways" crying. The tears leak out, I feel deeply sad, and I go on with my day - as if I have grieved.

So I've gone on about this as long as needed.  Life is good. Grieving is as natural to life as is dying.  Amen.

Grief and the Holidays

Hello again,

This is a season of celebrations, yet several people have posted on Facebook that they are facing losses and grieving deeply now.

Having had our mother pass this year affects how we feel about the holidays.  Several people I know are grieving a deep loss, facing the end of life or dealing with serious physical issues, so my feelings are close to the surface, too.

I have asked our guides and angels for help.  Here I am in the wee hours of the morning asking whether asking for help is enough or if there is something they can suggest that would help all of us.  This is their response:

"First, grieve deeply.  Do not suppress your feelings.  This may seem obvious, but any suppressed feeling must grow stronger to insure you pay attention.  Feelings are messengers and they must not remain quiet.  You may find that other conditions, such as regret or anger, lie under the layer of grief.  These feelings affect the whole of your being until they are released.

"When your holidays arrive, the contrast to suppressed emotion grows stronger.  You think you should be feeling joy, but emotions you have not yet expressed fully come to the surface instead.  They must persist until the energy of them is exhausted.

"Talk out loud to the one or the situation you are grieving.  Be loud and stay with it until you feel spent.  Practice shouting or crying loudly - or singing.  Breath is the key to feeling, and your voice is the instrument by which you exercise release.

"Think how often you have a strong feeling and push it down. We realize that you may have to delay acting out your feelings until you are in private, but the feeling is still there waiting your attention.  It is best not to ignore it.  Emotions do not go away.  You may shelve them, but suppressing them causes depression.  Yes, depression is the result of suppressed emotion.  Always.  No exceptions.

"And, yes, ask for our support.  Our presence can trigger insights and strong emotional expression when you open yourself to our help.  Asking for help is good practice in receiving and most people need that practice.  We wish you peace"


I have my homework to do.  I hope this helps you, too.

Peace,
Phyl-EL

Choosing versus Being

Good Sunday Morning!

We are a collective of decisions.  Our lives spiral out from a central mechanism of choosing, from what to wear each morning to how we position a pillow as we go to sleep - and all the mundane and profound decisions in between.

We've been schooled and reinforced throughout our lives that making a decision requires much thoughtful, analytical process.  Thus, we live self-consciously, weighing and measuring the possible result of each choice we make; among them, how will it affect the people in my life, what will others think of me, and finally but principally, will I be/feel "safe?" 

Using this logical and emotional equation is so much a part of who we are that we hardly consider what motivates us and what energy it takes to live in this fashion.  We have yet another decision to make: choosing to live in the ease of Knowing.

Example: I knew the church I attend occasionally offered a service I knew I would enjoy today, so I woke wondering if I would attend.  Not "should," but would.  Also on my mind was Christmas shopping.  Knowing my System would advise me, I breathed and allowed.  "Shopping" came up, deleting thoughts of attending church.  Not because one is "right" or "wrong," but simply the best option for me today.  My System contains a greater Knowing with more implications than I know or need to know.  If you've had this experience, you know what a relief it is not to have to know, but simply to follow your Inner Knowing.

The Core of Cosmic Consciousness, the God in us, The All That Is, always knows, and it Knows in a comprehensive Wisdom well beyond our human understanding. Our option now is to practice living in the Knowing, allowing Wisdom its voice - and enjoying the Ease that results.  

The other aspect of choosing is what we interpret as a timeline necessary to feel comfortable with our choice.  No such timeline applies to Knowing.  Relaxing and releasing a time factor is part and parcel of allowing Wisdom to advise.  Wholeness eludes us when a part of us keeps an eye on the clock.

As I continue to practice with the intention to one day master this freedom, I wish each of you this increasing Ease.

Breathing deeply with you,
Phyl-EL


Breath is the key, of course.  And the longer we practice that breathing when faced with a choice, the more vivid the result and the more grateful we are for finding ourselves whole, as we are intended to live.

Where is the JOY?

Greetings!

Our angels are not addressing our subject this evening, but they have posed a question: Where is the JOY?

Of course, it's a good season to ask the question, and I have to say first that I do know a few people whose joy is so obvious that this question is not about them.  If you are one of those fortunate folks, you'll be teaching the rest of us by your example.

I'm a happy person most of the time.  I'm grateful for my life, find joy in lovely moments and find my family, friends and clients a source of loving delight.  And I realized some time ago that my true joy is often hidden under disguised grief and anger.

Perhaps you have a complex history, too, with a similar experience - a happy person without sustained joy.  This means, for me, doing my homework.  I have done a good deal of it, including raging in private.  Also, I bolster the joy with singing, engaging with loved ones, etc., but when the angels ask me/us this question I have to admit that I have more to do. 

I need to be more actively engaged in emotional expression.
To unearth more joy I need to pay attention to my emotional symptoms and treat them with the same attention and respect as I would the symptoms of a cold or an injury.  My emotional body deserves the same attention I would give a raging or grieving small child.

We all deserve to live a joy-filled life.  It is our right by birth, yet as we grow we file away many complex feelings, and most parents are not skilled at teaching emotional tools to address the layers as they accumulate.  It is up to us now to parent ourselves.

I have a new impetus and a newly kindled desire to nuture myself.  Some wise person recently suggested that we write on a piece of paper each good thing that happens as the year passes, stuffing them into a big jar, then at the new year taking them all out to read them.  I love this self-therapy and even more stimulus to express gratitude.

I am grateful to know that breath is the key to this internal journey.  And I am grateful to our angels for posing the question, Where is the JOY?   

Happily, and breathing deeply,
Phyl-EL

Love as Life Force

Hello Again!

Angels have still more to say to us, so I'm prompted to listen and report here this evening.

Love is the word of the day.  Now, love applies to so many parts of our lives that we might think we know all about it; an old subject, so what would angels have to say about it.  No doubt something important or I would not be sitting here with my computer wondering what is coming next.  And so...

"Love is an interactive condition much greater than humans usually experience.  We do not minimize the nature of human love.  As you will see, although it is not the whole, it is essential.

"Love at the level of Cosmic Consciousness is a state of being.  It is the core energy that produces all life and supports it into infinity.  Think of your survival dependent on breath and you have a better idea of this core energy.  We might use the word, "spirit," but there are so many interpretations of that word, it is best to frame our conversation in a concept we all understand. In fact, the human word, "love," is insufficient, but it is our common reference.

"The question is, how might you expand your experience with love, thus deriving benefit from this cosmic core condition and sharing it even better with others?

"We, your angels/star siblings, live in a constant state of this core energy, so we are your best link with the essential energy of all life. Use your breath, then, to align with us, breathing deeply to connect and to be as open and receptive as possible.  Receiving this core energy is energizing, so you could benefit most at the beginning of your day, or whenever you need a boost.

"Sharing it with others will come naturally as you go about the business of life, breathing deeply and observing others without reaction or judgement, as best you can.  The less you think about how it works the more naturally you will share it.

"To say we love you is also insufficient.  We see you in all your radiating, pure energy.  We see anything you call sin or flaws as the human experience through which you learn and become more.  The energy exchange we encourage is unconditional - and that is what this love is.  Pure, uncomplicated LOVE."

With Gratitude, Breathing deeply, Namaste'

P.S. to earlier post

Hello Again,

Two things I didn't include in my earlier post...
My thanks to Judith for prompting me to blog about our angelic relationships and our service to the planet.  I benefit so much the conversations and energy we share.

And I've had reports and noticed for myself that we can feel quite exhausted after a night of this work.  This is not necessary, but a very human result of "hard work."  We have only to breathe deeply, surrender to our angelic partners and affirm sleeping deeply, thus being renewed by our service.  Our partners are only too happy to support us.

Blessings!

Angels and Assignments

Greetings!

I'm seeing angels each time I close my eyes to meditate, and knowing they were prompting me to pay attention, I asked for guidance.  Talking with my sister this a.m. about the messages I've received, she prompted me to blog about it, so after a very long hiatus, here I am.

My reference to angels may differ from others.  I can only report what feels "right," and encourage discussion, through which we all learn.

Angels are our messengers from the star systems from which we all come.  The twelve tribes which invested consciousness in Earth were each from a different star system.  Each of these systems was and is unique unto itself.  Just how unique I can only surmise, and perhaps they will further advise us as we open to accept more of our inheritance.  Each of the tribes was therefore unique, as are the indigenous peoples who have evolved from them.  And each of these now comprise the most diverse community in consciousness, which was the Plan.

So we can see that our star connections were essential to the creation of the human race as we know it.  Along the way we have been guided by our star ancestors, which I have learned are the angels we've come to mythologize.  They still show themselves to me with wings most of the time, while advising me that, while this is a mechanism they use to meet my expectations, they are not winged.  It is their radiating energy that gives us the impression of wings.

These days these star siblings are more present than ever because Earth is in an accelerated state of evolution that depends upon our human conscious, intentional interaction with our star systems.  Thus, we strengthen the conduit between us.  And they do call it a conduit we are re-energizing between each of those star systems and Earth.  And these angels/star siblings are so very present to assist us in achieving this assignment.  In service to Earth, Archangel Michael is the steward who guides us. Likely, each of us might realize our own star/angel guides to personalize the experience and give us a sense of belonging.

The good news is that we can fulfill those assignments without ever understanding what they are or how they are accomplished.  Most of the work is done while we are sleeping and therefore absent of emotional reaction and thoughts that might interrupt the flow.  Hurrah!  We are not helpless in the face of the Earth's challenges.  We are more or less involved depending upon how aware and intentional we are.  Ah ha!  And so our metaphysical paths are explained. We can more intentionally participate by thinking about our angels as we fall asleep or stating our intention to fulfill our service to the planet. 

Just as essential to the whole are those people who are not actively employed in forging the conduits so essential to Earth's balance.  Each Plan is perfect.  None of us is absent of perfection.

As we are activating our star consciousness, it's good to understand that this activation varies according to the star system from which each of us came originally.  We each came to one of the original Earth tribes from our own star system; Arcturus, The Pleiades, Syrius, etc.  Each of these was essential to create the most diverse complement in consciousness, creating a diverse Earth community.  These conduits we strengthen now are essential to support Earth's current state of evolution by supporting its diversity, while striving to achieve unity.  We might think of Earth as a cosmic melting pot, as the United States is considered a melting pot for all cultures.

Until we meet here again, Namaste'
