Did you ever see the movie Amelie? Well, if you didn’t I will fill you in. Amelie is a slightly whimsical, very sweet and magical French film about a girl who discovers her purpose is to help others..She uses her imagination to assist those in need without them knowing they are being guided. In one story her intention is to help her father take a vacation, so she kidnaps his garden gnome and with the help of a flight attendant sends photos to her father of the little fella in front of famous landmarks around the world. The photos eventually convince him to take a long awaited vacation.

So, I thought it might be a nice idea to do the same thing with my Wishing book. My first photo of Wishing is here. I invite you to send me a photo of Wishing in front of a local landmark or at a concert or in a diner or a photo of you reading Wishing on a park bench or maybe on your bookshelf. Use your imagination - it might be fun. I will add photos once a week, maybe your photo will be there so remember to take a look. The tagline for the movie is “One person can change your life forever.” Well, maybe your photo can too! I am thinking this might make a nice competition, we can vote on the photo we like the best and then give a prize. I will ponder on how to do that.

OK, I know, its more angel information, but after writing my blog last night I had a visit from a presence that told me she (yes she) was Angel Ariel. I was a little confused as I thought Ariel was a fairy, but Angel Ariel put me straight and said she was a nymph angel - she watches over the nymphs. She also told me she was the angel of wishing. Some research revealed that she is indeed the angel of nature spirits and of manifestation. Always good to have some verification.

This morning the angels were back, but this time with a message from a young man named Daniel. So if someone is reading this who knows of a Daniel who would have passed into spirit in the past few years then this may be him. He died with a cloud of darkness around him which would have either been an illness or depression or maybe something that would have clouded his vision and senses. He comes with sadness and tells me that he wants to pass a message on to his mother, she is the one who is sad. The message relates to an animal that he says is like her child. He just wanted her to know he is around and supporting her during this time of sadness and that she is going to be OK. He shows me an image of his mother smiling in a few months, particularly February, and there are good memories around this time. I send this message with love from the angels who are currently working with me. 

Although we think there are coincidences really the fabric of time is multi-layered and coincidences are just signposts on the road we are traveling so we know we are going in the right direction. Today I spent most of my time surfing the web. I will be the host of About.com’s Carnival of Healing in January, so thought I’d get a head start by checking out some blogs. The Carnival is all about blogs focused on healing. As you probably know healing comes from an old word haelen meaning to make whole again. So when we talk about being healed we are saying that we are going back to being one - and we are all one aren’t we!

Well, I came across a site called Twitter and joined that, then found a couple of blogs on color, then Lisa my publicist sent me an article on color that was really about how our perspectives move from the right to the left brain once something is named, then more blogs, and finally when looking at my own blog I mentioned a couple of entries ago that I was experiencing more of an angelic presence in my life. Angels seem to be cropping up right, left and center. Doreen Virtue the angel guru used to specialize in weight loss, that was before she owned up to being psychic. It seems that my guides are leading me on the stairway to heaven via the angelic realm. Blogging is more useful than anticipated, especially since I see the angel trail throughout my blog. I had asked Karen my website designer to make this site lilac, blue, and white - the Guardian Angel colors of my Rainbow Spirit jewelry. These colors protect. I’d also wanted the angels to be present on my site. Those who read my newsletter will know this, but on the day my new site went live I opened my home page, looked at the ever changing From the Heart card and noticed the quote was one of three angelic messages. Later the same day I opened the home page again to find the second angel message parked on the From the Heart card. The third message came up on cue when I refreshed the page. Then an odd thing happened. Each time I refreshed the page one of those three angel messages would come up.

I contacted Karen to ask if she had placed the other messages or just the angelic ones. She had placed them all, the angels were talking. I mentioned earlier on this blog that when angels send messages to me they come in threes. The angels continued to bring up their messages care of my From the Heart card until finally I got the message - my site is hosted by angels!

I was reminded yesterday of my association with Archangel Michael. There have been a few burglaries in the area we are currently staying in, one had occurred in a home next to ours just before our arrival. Sometimes I see energy even when I don’t try to. Usually I shut down my psychic skills otherwise the input can be draining if it is 24/7. Well, when I spoke with the lady who had been burgled I noticed a lot of cloudy energy, like thick smog around the doorway and entrance to her home. In that moment I realized that I had to cleanse the area and ask for protection otherwise this smog would attract other like-minded souls - remember that like attracts like. I asked for light to embrace our homes, cleanse the surrounding areas, and for it to illuminate everything around it so protecting us in its radiance. As a final seal on the deal I asked Archangel Michael to protect the four corners of our property. Last night I met a lady who had also been burgled. She too, after the event, asked Michael to protect herself and her family. Michael is certainly busy here. 

I have started to create my own line of a color coded intuitive system. This is the first one, Out of the Blue. I feel it is the birth energy, the clear part of the rainbow energy, plenty of choices within the subconscious. The indigo above is like the night sky, but it is also connected with the root and third eye, the vision of life. Maybe our lives are dreams within this energy and can be whatever we dream them to be. I like this way of creating, on the computer first and eventually in physical form, kind of like spirit would create. This looks like I am re-creating other systems, but this is totally different for many reasons that will of course become clear once the system is complete.

I was asked recently on a radio show how to discern true messages from guides. My answer was to train the intuition to discover how this information is received by the individual. For instance, I tend to go with feelings, a heavy feeling is a no, a light feeling a yes. I am kinesthetic so my guides and those in spirit have the habit of tickling my head when they have a message for me. Angels reveal their presence in threes to let me know they have something to say. Just yesterday I had my three messages from the angels, today my father who is in spirit was around and tickled my head plus he always changes my Outlook to arrive at the one email message I have from him just to let me know it is him - in case I missed it! And just now I opened my website at the home page and there the small ever changing message on the “From the Heart” section at the bottom read, “Change is inevitable, pain comes when you resist the change.” Why is this significant? Because much of my life is about change and while some messages breeze by me this one stuck. Intuitively I know that this message is for me, I mean it’s really for me. We are constantly changing, that is the beauty of earth. Even her seasons and colors reflect our own transformation. Its good to be alive! 

I have just finished reading Brett Bevell’s new book due for release in October 2009 about Reiki. We share many of the same philosophies and I am pleased that this book stretches beyond Reiki, to guide anyone and everyone to heal different levels of being using invocations. Invocations are statements of power, they are similar to intentions although for me there is always the element of spell-magick within them. Years ago I ritually spoke the Great Invocation 100 times, three times a day. It was supposed to bring light into my energy field and clear karma. If the intention is to clear energy then the invocation will clear it, this does not however mean that it will magically be removed. It creates a vibration for clearing and hence can set up events that are needed to help clear karma or anything else that the focus is set upon. Brett’s book is a good foundation for working with invocations and Reiki. I’ll post it on my website when it becomes available.

Well, its a new day for everyone on some level. I visited friends recently and on the day we arrived I had a mass of spirit energy come around my head. Whenever this happens it usually augers some kind of shift or change or something a little ominous to be aware of. I feel spirit do this to let me know they are sending me an extra hug and lots of love. Then they stand back and observe knowing that I know they are there no matter what. So, the day after all the spirit energy my friend backed into my car, Angel. No one was hurt, but Angel’s bumper was a bit crushed. Even though this event is relatively small I feel my spirit family just wanted me to know they were there. It reminds me of the Footsteps story when a man walks side by side with the Divine and two pairs of footsteps appear in the sand. Then one day only one set of footprints appear, his own. He asked why the Divine had abandoned him. The reply came, the one set of footprints belonged to the Divine because it was then that the Divine carried him!

I have noticed more Angelic energy coming around lately. It may be because so many people are thinking about the economy and the change in government. They are loving and protective when they are here. I wonder if anyone else has noticed their presence. Angels are always working to balance energy, especially in cities where so many souls reside. You can help them by making an intention to be of service. Ask to work in your sleep but make sure you ask them to re-energize you before you wake up, otherwise you may be drained from all the work. Also ask the angels to help you remember your dreams.
