ACTIVATING THE LIGHT GRID

2011-11-30T10:18:00.000-08:00

On September 1997, I was called upon by Archangel Raphael and the Blessed Mother to perform a spiritual service. I was told it was time to activate the heart energy of the Creator’s Star grid that had been created at six points of lights in the United States.

I was asked to drive to Kansas City, Missouri, where I would be guided to a forest with heart. I don’t know why I doubt the messages that I am given, because there hasn’t been one instance in which God hasn’t guided my path. Yes, when I first heard the words “forest with heart” I thought of the acres of forest that must exist in Kansas City. And I wasn’t initially abundant with the idea of walking in the woods looking for a heart.

Prior to my leaving home, the angels gave me one more clue. They shared that while in Kansas City I would have an experience similar to that of Brigadoon. Brigadoon was the title of a Broadway show created by Lerner and Loewe. It’s the story of two American tourists who stumble into a Scottish town that only reawakens for one day every hundred years. Like this community in the mist, there was a group of people in another dimension waiting for my arrival. When I got to Kansas City their presence would be made known to me. This message didn’t enhance my comfort zone. Not only was I looking for a heart in a forest; but also now there were people who were going to appear from somewhere else walking out of the mist into my life. However, I am obedient and so I headed for the highway that leads to Kansas City. Rather than proclaiming, “Let the games begin!” - my decree is always, “Let the angelic adventure begin!”

On my way to Kansas City I spoke at a Unity Church in Columbia, Missouri. While giving my sermon I shared my reason for being in Missouri. After the church service, a woman came up to me and said point blank, “You are looking for the Heart Forest.” I replied, “Yes!” And I asked her its location. She remarked, “I don’t know where it is, but you’ll find it when you get to Kansas City.”

Prior to my arrival in Kansas City, I would have several other speaking engagements en route and at each lecture someone would come up at the end of my talk and share that it was; in fact, the Heart Forest I was looking for; and no, they didn’t know where it was exactly, but I would find it in Kansas City. I have to admit; I felt a peace knowing that people had heard of a forest with a heart.

I arrived in Kansas City at the home of Anna Franke, a precious woman who has the most beautiful and loving heart. Upon my arrival I asked her if she knew of a Heart Forest. To my amazement she stated that not only did she know of it, but also she knew the man who had been instrumental in the project. She went into her kitchen to look up his phone number and get him on the phone for me. While she was in the other room calling the Heart Forest contact, the angels were aflutter in her living room.

The angels told me that I was to go downtown to the main library of Kansas City. I was to go to the microfiche and find the names of all the people who were killed in the Hyatt Hotel accident some years ago in Kansas City. The angels indicated that these people were in fact the ones about whom they had inspired me earlier, and they were waiting to come forth from spirit into service. These individuals would be participating in the activation of the heart of the Creator’s Star grid in the Heart Forest.

When Anna returned to the room, she shared that she couldn’t believe her good fortune because the gentleman she was contacting on my behalf travels the world extensively. He is an architect by trade. She indicated that he was willing to lead me himself to the Heart Forest and that arrangements had been made for that to occur the very next day - a Sunday afternoon.

I then shared with Anna my gratitude for her service on my behalf and shared that I needed to get to the public library before it closed. I explained I needed to obtain a list of the names of all those who died in the Hyatt tragedy. Anna’s face turned white. She then shared that her own sister-in-law was one of those who died in the accident at the Hyatt Hotel.

Anna and I drove to the library and I obtained copies of the newspaper articles on the accident. The news reports listed 114 people who died. With the information in hand, I went back to Anna’s home and, using her computer, typed out the names of those who had died.

On Friday afternoon, July 17, 1981, a tea dance in the hotel lobby of the Hyatt Hotel was attended by 1500 people. As the people listened to the Steve Miller Orchestra play Duke Ellington’s “Satin Doll”, a walkway that spanned the lobby collapsed into another walkway. Both walkways then crashed onto the lobby floor. 114 people were killed; nearly 200 were injured.

It was one of American history’s worst hotel catastrophes. Thousands of lives were adversely affected by this accident. I knew of the tragedy and loss of this incident; but I also knew that those who had died were sending a message of hope as part of the heart activation for the Creator’s Star grid. What were they telling us from heaven’s side?

As I read the articles on the accident, I was touched by the comments that family members made about the loved ones’ deaths and the tea dances at the Hyatt. Family members explained how much their family members loved dancing and that it comforted them to know they were doing what they loved when they died. I paused from my typing and thought to myself: These people danced into the light. They danced into heaven.

At that moment the angels revealed, “Yes, they are God’s light dancers. They will be with you Sunday in spirit. They will bless the Creator’s Star grid with the message that life is a dance…remember to dance!” I was then inspired to find a copy of Garth Brook’s powerful song, “The Dance.” It was no surprise to me that Anna just happened to have a copy in her tape collection.

The following day I was joined by a caravan of cars of people who I had met in Kansas City who wanted to be a part of the Heart Forest blessing. Bob led all of us to the Heart Forest.

I offer you a brief history of The Heart Forest as given at the website: www.creativeprocess.net/heartforest.

“The first planting day for the Heart Forest took place on April 28, 1990 to coincide with the 20th anniversary celebration of Earth Day, but the idea of a heart forest first took root with a suggestion made by Dr. Robert Muller at ‘The Future is Now’, Second Annual December 31 Peace Celebration in 1987.

“Dr. Muller, who had recently retired as Under-Secretary of the United Nations and taken on the post of Chancellor for the University for Peace in Costa Rica, had returned as the keynote speaker for the second event. The day before the celebration a breakfast was held with civic leaders where two other visitors to Kansas City were in attendance, Iroquois Chief Leon Shenandoah and Mohawk Chief Jake Swamp.

“After Dr. Muller had given his remarks at the breakfast both Chief Shenandoah and Chief Swamp shared their feelings about Kansas City and the heart of the country.

“The next morning at the early morning celebration, Dr. Muller proposed a heart shaped avenue of trees be planted around the city, large enough to be seen from space, as a way for Kansas City to proclaim itself as loving the world with a global heart.”

From the efforts of many visionaries the Heart Forest became a reality. On 22 acres of land near the Kansas City Airport a grove of 550 red cedars surrounded by concentric heart-shaped bands of flowering pine and shade trees paints a picture of love for the entire world to see. In Margaret Mead’s words: “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful citizens can change the world. Indeed it is the only thing that ever has.” And a small group of citizens of Kansas City gave to the world a forest with a heart.

And so through the honoring of those who danced into light by reading their names aloud, and supporting with prayers, songs, and uplifted hearts the blessing of their message to always remember to dance, the heart of the Creator’s Star grid was officially opened. There were tears and hugs and an overall feeling of a greater peace embracing all of us who participated in the service.

I turned my car homeward with a sense of this angelic assignment coming to completion. The evening prior to my leaving Kansas City, Anna included me in her prayers asking God to watch over me on my trip home. During her sleep she had a dream that something was wrong with my car and she was being shown a snake under the hood. The next morning Anna couldn’t wait for me to get my car into the local auto repair shop. Sure enough, my serpentine belt was on the verge of breaking. The snake under the hood was God’s way of conveying that the “serpent” belt needed to be replaced. The repairman indicated that I was one lucky lady in having this fixed without having it break out on the road. I knew luck had nothing to do with it; I am blessed with friends who care about me.

On my drive home, the Blessed Mother appeared to me. She held a dove of peace in her hands. She inspired me with the message that with the opening of the heart of the Creator’s Star grid within the Heart Forest, her blessings for all people to have peace in their heart were pouring forth on the planet. She said to me, “Know yourself as my child of peace.”

That was one of the first times I would feel my service with the angels being directed to spreading the importance of peace in our hearts and in our lives and identifying myself as earthangel4peace.

The words that followed caused me to shudder: “Protect my children. Protect the innocent ones. Protect them from harm and sexual exploitation.”

When I got home to Angel Heights, the angels revealed Mary’s plan of service. I was asked to gather together a group of my friends who were willing to dedicate 21 days to the project. Each person was directed to the website: www.childsearch.org.

This organization posts pictures of children missing and lists them state-by-state. They have a motto: Missing but not forsaken. I was asked by the Blessed Mother to have every child listed in every state assigned to one of my group’s members. We were then asked to print out the pictures of the children.

Every morning and every evening as part of our prayers we were asked to focus on each child. We were told to look them in the eyes and send God’s love to them. We were told to say to them, “You are not missing in the eyes of God. God sees you. God who is all knowing knows where you are. We reclaim you in service to God.”

We then envisioned a double circle of light – a double halo – protecting the child. It is called the ring-pass-not. It is created by visualizing the power of God flowing in the shape of a circle of light around the child in a clockwise direction. The second circle is the love of God flowing as light to protect the child in a counterclockwise direction. The two circles together form a protection energy known as the ring-pass-not.

No matter where the child may be, the God energies will reach them. If someone is harming the child or doing harm to the child, the ring will create a “spotlight” effect and in some way God’s light will eventually cause the captor to slip up and attention will be drawn to the child.

You may have heard the saying, “turning up the heat”. The Blessed Mother asked us to turn up the lights. I have been asked to continue the service of printing out the pictures of missing children and praying for them and reclaiming them with the light of God.

I know in order to assist the families in finding their children, the children have to be posted as missing; however, the Blessed Mother is saying that with God NOTHING and NO ONE is ever lost. God knows all and sees all.

Did you know that every day in America three children die from abuse and neglect; six children and youths commit suicide; 13 children and youths are murdered; 16 children and youths are killed by firearms; 100,000 children are homeless; 14.7 million live in poverty in this land of abundance? Mother Mary is calling us to take a stand and to answer her call to protect the children from hunger, pain, and harm.

I was asked by the Blessed Mother to visit Bosnia. In Bosnia I learned of the service of International God-Parenthood for the Herceg-Bosnian Child. On the island of Jakljan, this organization makes it possible for hundreds of widows and children to come for spiritual renewal and retreats. These are woman and children who have lost husbands and fathers in wars. One of the little children shared, “It was the hardest for me on August 19, 1992, when I lost my dad. I was very close to him. I just couldn’t believe that I didn’t have him any more and even today, I can’t believe that four years have gone by already and that my love for him has grown stronger. Two months after Dad’s death we had to leave our city, our home, everything that belonged to us. But this wasn’t half as hard as losing my dad.”

Children come to the island with heartache and loss. They find a place of comfort where they can share their loss and pain and receive healing. One child expressed the most beautiful moment on the island was when she became convinced that she was not alone. She came to realize that there were those who were concerned for her and prayed for her. Mother Mary asks all of us to pray for the children of the world.

In the inspirations given to me by the angels and the Blessed Mother, I have been told to pray with my heart. I know that the Blessed Mother’s guiding me to the Heart Forest was to convey to me the message of the importance of praying with a big open heart; praying with the energy of a 22-acre heart.

As I prepared for my trip to Bosnia, the angels told me to pack one suitcase with what I would need for myself personally on the trip; a second suitcase was to be kept empty and in readiness for the children in Bosnia. As my departure date drew nearer, I asked the angels if I needed to go shopping to purchase what the children needed. I was told simply to keep the suitcase empty and in readiness.

The day before my departure, I spoke in Montoursville, Pennsylvania. During my lecture I shared that I was going to Bosnia on an angelic assignment. At the end of the lecture, Becky Huff asked if she could speak to me. I knew Becky as the creator of a line of dolls called Angel Babies. Her adorable baby dolls are dressed in actual human baby clothes. The Angel Babies have been used in seminars to support people’s healing efforts to nurture their own inner child and many incredible healings have resulted from the experiences.

Becky shared that she had taught a class of elementary school children to make Angel Babies. The children wanted the babies to go to children in need and were waiting for a sign as to who was to receive the baby dolls. Becky knew the Angel Babies were meant for the children of Bosnia who had been orphaned by the war. When I arrived in Bosnia, the angels arranged for me to meet a director of the orphanage where the Angel Babies were to be “delivered”. I feel so blessed to have been the “stork” in delivering these precious gifts from the little children of Montoursville, Pennsylvania, to the sweet children of Bosnia.

On behalf of the children, open your heart in prayer to God and ask to be shown how you can be a blessing to a child. I would like to share some ways that you can be of service.

Take a child to a concert or to a museum. Spend time with the children in your neighborhood and your church. Hire a youth in your community. Offer your services as a chaperone for a school field trip. Give games to local rec centers. Praise a child. Say hello to children. Be nice to children. Become a big brother/big sister. Make a donation to Toys for Tots. Ask your elected officials what they are doing for children. Plant a tree where children play. Pay your child support. Know where your child is and who your child’s friends are. Clean up the neighborhood. Volunteer to help out in the nursery of your local hospital. Read to a child.

One Sunday I was invited by a Baltimore church to do the children’s program for the service. I learned a valuable lesson that Sunday morning. I had chosen a book that was too long to read to the children in the time allotted. I thought to myself, no problem, I’ll just read a few pages, and then summarize the point I want to make. That might work for adults, but not for children.

When the Children’s Sermon Time arrived, I sat in the front of the church with the little children of the congregation gathered round me. I started to read the first few pages, and then I started to turn the pages quickly as I gave the children of a synopsis of the message of the story. The children would have nothing to do with being short-changed out of being read to by me. One little girl flipped the book back to where I had stopped reading, and said, “No skipping pages. You’re supposed to read the whole book to us.”

I supported her right not to be short-changed; however, I pretty much pleaded with the little people to have mercy on me in this situation. I explained that in order to share time with the pastor, and choir and everyone else who had a part to play in the program, we had to cut short the reading. I asked all the children if it was ok with them if I cut the reading part short this morning. They knew they had me squirming, and so they agreed.

The audience was in stitches over the whole incident. The children had made their point. In fact, their point is the Blessed Mother’s point, too. Don’t shortchange the children.

God wants us to always be looking for ways to make a child’s life better. What better service is there, than to make the world a better place for the children and to make a child’s life better now?

Angelic Blessings of God's peace to you,
Jayne

WEAVING LIGHT GRID - PART II

2011-11-06T04:48:00.001-08:00

In the spring of 1996,I was next called to Whitney, Texas to The Chapel of Light to weave the energy of the third point of the star grid. The energy was woven together with the light of Archangel Chamuel; the light of the heart of God; the light of the divine heart beat; the light of St. Anthony; the light of the joy of puppies; the light of the love of God and adoration to God.

The third grid point’s weaving contained the energy of the third chakra – the solar plexus. This is the power point of the body. In ancient times it was believed by some that our mind was actually in our solar plexus – the area beneath our ribs – because we would get “gut” feelings there.

The message of John 10:7 – I am the door of the sheep - is expressed in this grid point. A gentleman who was involved in the early years of Alcoholics Anonymous established the Chapel of Light. He was a leading speaker for AA conferences. The Chapel has 12 steps that lead up the church. Once inside there are twelve stained glass windows – each in a different color. The grid point blessed the healing that AA has given to thousands of people on the planet. The message from John conveyed that AA is a “God-door” that is opened to people who need to be gathered together through their AA meetings and through the strength of God, the strength of the group, and the God strength inside of each of them, they are able to turn their lives around and look to God’s light.

I remember as I was leaving the Chapel after having completed the grid weaving, and walking down the 12 front steps of the Chapel, the angels saying to me that an additional blessing about AA is that people go to AA first seeking help for themselves; i.e. they walk the AA “steps” to help heal their addiction to alcohol. However, at some point the energy shifts and they become one with the “steps” and become support to others who follow in their footsteps to join AA for help. And this is true; each new AA member has a sponsor who is someone who has themselves walked the steps of AA.

I cannot write or talk about St. Anthony without feeling my heart expand with love. I treasure St. Anthony’s support and friendship in my life. He is known as St. Anthony of Padua. Many people know Anthony as the Patron Saint of Lost Property. If ever you misplace something, call upon Anthony for help. I always say, “St. Anthony, St. Anthony, please come round. Something is lost and needs to be found.”

Anthony was both teacher and preacher. He was very charismatic and because of his popularity he usually spoke outdoors rather than inside of churches because of the large numbers of people who came to hear him speak. St. Francis chose Anthony to teach the friars at Padua and Bologna. He was so loved that he was recognized as a saint one year after this death in 1232.

When I was in Portland, Oregon, relics of St. Anthony were touring the United States. As I was beginning the first leg of quite a lengthy odyssey with the angels, I was comforted when I learned Anthony was in town.

Anthony is a blessed soul who from heaven continues to work wonders and miracles for the glory of God. He truly is a messenger of the light of the heart of God and just thinking about him lightens my heart.

The blessings of “puppies” was also woven into the grid energy at Whitney, Texas. Some years back I attended a Sacred Art class and one of our assignments was to draw a picture of a childhood memory that conveyed the message of happiness to us. I didn’t hesitate in knowing what I would draw. My parents have a photograph of this precious childhood moment. I have my favorite red wagon and I am taking six puppies for a ride. I adore puppies. I honor William Wegman for his beautiful healing service provided in his book Puppies. I have gifted family members and friends this book because it’s page after page of pure joy, happiness and goodness.

While in Whitney, Texas I was participated in an angel conference. Under the front steps of the church where I was speaking a mommy dog had given birth to puppies about a week or two earlier. The mommy dog had kept the puppies underneath the steps, and no one in the church community had yet seen the puppies. I was obsessed with the hope, wish, and desire that the puppies would come out to play. I gave my angel lecture and before the next speaker took the podium, we had a short break. I went outside to the steps, still carrying the hope in my heart the puppies would appear. At that very moment chubby, furry little balls of love came bouncing out into the light. Puppies smell like goodness. All of the children came running to see the precious puppies. The mommy dog watched us; however, I got the feeling she was happy to have human babysitters take over to give her a break. She would tell that we loved them abundantly.

The conference organizer came up to me and said, “Jayne, no one is going to come inside until you do.” I knew I had to go inside however “little Jayne” wanted to be outside with the children and the puppies. I handed the puppies over to the children and went inside.

The next speaker came to the podium. Directly behind her was a large glass window that was the entire width of the front of the church. This window revealed the front of the church where the puppies had just appeared. While the speaker began sharing her words of inspiration, the children came to the window with the puppies in their arms showing them to all of us inside The conference leader leaned over to me and said, “You’re responsible for this.” God wants our lives to be filled with goodness. Puppies are proof positive.

Following the completion of the grid work in Texas I waited for the call to anchor the fourth point of the Creator’s Star. Prior to being given my travel plans, I was told by the angels in meditation, “The Hand of God raised in blessing/benediction will be appearing. When you know of it, you are to go stand witness to it.” I was expecting a large hand to appear in a dream and point to a location on a map and that would be my marching orders. However, that wasn’t God’s plan at all.

In May 1996 an article appeared in The Baltimore Sun on the front page of the feature section. The article was copy only, no picture. The headline read: Raphael Drawing Unveiled. The copy went something like this: A hand raised in a blessing or benediction, drawn by 15th century artist Raphael has been discovered in the archives of the Art Institute of Chicago.

I was drawn to the article initially when I saw the name “Raphael” in the headline. As I’ve shared, my assignment was being fulfilled in conjunction with Archangel Raphael and the Blessed Mother.

I called the Chicago Art Institute and spoke to the head of the department that was involved with the uncovering of the Raphael etching in the archives. I asked when the public would be allowed to see the drawing. I was told Spring, 1997. I explained my assignment with the angels and asked if I could come visit them now and be allowed to see the image. I was granted permission.

I did not know the date the angels wanted me to go on this assignment. It had always been clear in the past that I was to leave immediately upon hearing of my mission. However, I felt that this wasn’t what God wanted in this instance. As I’ve shared before, when something is right and something is true, your whole body chimes in the key of you. I stood in the center of my living room with numbers of calendar dates that started with today and went forward through the month of May. When I stood on May 30 my whole body vibrated in oneness with God’s Will. I was a human bell. I asked the angels, am I correct – it’s May 30th? I heard them respond, “If it is confirmation you want, go to your saint calendar.” I rushed to my office and flipped excitedly through the calendar to May 30th. There before me was a drawing of St. Joan of Arc (1412-1431) on the date of Thursday, May 30, 1996 with Joan’s own words: “I was born to do this.” On May 30th I flew to Chicago to visit the Chicago Institute of Art because I was born to do this.

Raphael the artist was born on Good Friday and died on Good Friday. Even though he only was on the earth for 37 years, he painted over 700 works of art. The Chicago Institute had wanted to purchase a Raphael for their collection and they were blessed to discover a Raphael had been gifted to them. It was waiting for them to discover it in their archives. So often we go seeking for treasures in our life and they are in our own backyard waiting for our discovery.

The drawing by Raphael was in preparation for a painting of St. Peter that is in the Vatican in Rome. The importance of the drawing is that it is an image of God blessing our lives with wisdom that was imparted to us by Jesus when he spoke to St. Peter.

In Matthew 16 Jesus asked His disciples who everyone in the community was saying Jesus was? The disciples told Jesus there was talk he was John the Baptist; Elijah; even one of the prophets.

He then asked them who they said that he was.

Peter responded from the truth of his heart. He said to Jesus, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” Because of Peter’s response, Jesus blessed Peter and said to him that upon Peter he would build His church. He goes on to give Peter the keys of heaven.

The teaching from the Raphael drawing is that people around you will project upon you their feeling of who you are. However, when you look yourself in the mirror in the morning and see the man or woman looking back, imagine the Christ asking you: “But who do you say that I am?” And respond with an answer that resonates with the truth of your heart. For myself, I respond to Christ’s question by saying, “I am an earthangel4peace. I have answered your call on the Mount to be a peacemaker and walk in your footsteps peacefully.” When we respond with that which is revealed to us by our Father in heaven as the truth of our hearts, Christ answers back that He will build His service upon our lives.

In the spring of 1997 I was traveling through Chicago and stopped again at the Chicago Institute of Art. I smiled when I saw that the Raphael drawing had been placed in a prominent position so that it literally blessed everyone who walked into the museum.

The actual weaving took place in the center of the museum where a glorious set of six glass panels entitled America’s Windows created by Marc Chagall is on display. America’s Windows were designed in 1977 in commemoration of the American Bicentennial. The weaving brought together the energies of the light of Archangel Uriel; the light of the Holy Breath of Holy Spirit; the light of St. Joan of Arc; the light of doves as messengers of peace; the light of the grace of God; and ministration to others through selfless service.

The grid wove together energies of the fourth chakra – the heart chakra and the words from John 10:7 – I am the good shepherd.

The message of the grid point is for each of us to be a good shepherd, guardian to our hearts and the love that God has placed within each of our hearts. A shepherd is one who takes good care of that which he is watching over, i.e. a flock. Do we sometimes put our heart energy in harm’s way? As a good shepherd we need to love ourselves and to take actions to prevent possible harm. In respect of the love God has given us, housed in our hearts, it is important that when someone is being unkind and abusive to us that we express to them that we prefer that they not speak to us in that tone or display a certain behavior while in our company. Boundaries that we put in place when someone is acting out are to be compared to the fencing that the good shepherd surrounds his flock with to keep the wolves out. Are you keeping the wolves away from your heart?

Additionally, the energies woven in Chicago connected the energies of the grid with the star grid energy that is already in place beneath the city of Jerusalem. Chagall’s Windows can be found in Jerusalem. In the Synagogue of the Hadassah-Hebrew University Medical Center, as part of the hospital’s golden anniversary celebration in February 1962, the Chagall Windows were unveiled. The Windows represent the Twelve Tribes of Israel. Marc Chagall commented that as he worked on the windows, “I felt my father and my mother were looking over my shoulder and behind them were Jews, millions of other vanished Jews of yesterday and a thousand years ago.”

In some way I felt that through the light weaving and the creation of the energy Creator’s Star, the America’s Windows and the Windows in Jerusalem were coming together to glorify God. The legacy of the faithful people of God was woven into this grid point. I recently heard a song sung as part of the Sight and Sound Production of Abraham and Sarah in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. The words ask the question: Will those who come behind you find that you had been faithful?

In September 1996 I was called to New England. At America’s Stonehenge in Salem, New Hampshire the grid energy was woven together. America’s Stonehenge may be one of North America’s oldest megalithic sites. The stonewalls and large standing stones cover well over 30 acres. It’s been compared to England’s Stonehenge because ancient people who had knowledge of astronomy and building with stone configurations were responsible for the creation of both sites. America’s Stonehenge can be used to determine both significant solar and lunar events of the year. It is one of the most important archeological sties in the western hemisphere. In this beautiful wooded setting the light of Archangel Gabriel; the light of the element of earth; the light of St. Theresa; the light of trees; and the light of God’s goodness and purity were woven together.

It was a blessing of the fifth chakra – the throat chakra and the message of John 10:11 – I am the resurrection and the life. The throat chakra is known as the Will center of the chakra system. So often we “will” or allow and tolerate things in our lives by what we do or do not communicate. The throat center is a communication chakra. In Eastern traditions, the base of the neck is recognized as a spiritual doorway and meditations direct concentration and focus of energies upon this power point. By energizing this chakra point, a spiritual doorway is opened and the individual is in the flow with divine communication. God speaks to us through this grid point with clarity of communication, Christ’s words: I am the resurrection and the life.

The nature kingdom’s message of this grid point came from the Mother earth and trees. The trees are the ancient ones on our planet. Trees inspire us to be connected to both heaven and earth. Trees are vital to the earth’s life support systems.

Dorothy Maclean communicated with the tree devas when living in Findhorn, Scotland. Here’s one of their messages spoken to her; yet the words are for all of us to hear:

“We are guardians of the Earth in many ways, and humans should be a part of what we guard. We are not active young things; we are, in many ways, like a school of benevolent philosophers with nonhuman purity and a great wish to serve humanity. Trees are vital to man and to life on this planet, and we are eager to experience this contact with some of you humans before the others of your kind destroy all that trees have built up.”

On December 10, 1997, a 25-year-old woman named Julia “Butterfly” Hill climbed up into an 18-story high perch in an ancient Redwood in California in protest of the destruction of a 600-year-old Redwood, scheduled to be chopped down by a lumber company. It was only after two years of living in her tree house that the lumber company negotiated an agreement that would spare the Redwood and a 200-foot zone from logging. Hill is a woman who walked her talk. During those two years, Hill slept under a tarp on an 8-by-8 foot plywood platform; bathed in a bucket; hauled up food and supplies by road. She weathered winds and rains and chilly winters. Hill remarked, “There is no way to be in the presence of these ancient beings and not be affected.”

The essence of the fifth grid point contained God’s purity and goodness. If there ever was a saint on the planet who conveyed that message, then it was St. Therese. She is known as the Little Flower.

St. Theresa entered a Carmelite monastery at the age of fifteen. She literally went to Pope Leo XIII and begged him to grant her permission to enter the convent as such a young age. She lived the life of a cloistered nun until her death at 24 years of age from tuberculosis. She wrote her autobiography. The Story of a Soul, only after she was ordered to do so by her prioress. In this book St. Theresa wrote that after she died she would “let fall a shower of roses” – miracles and favors – upon those who called upon her for help. This sweet young woman made a pledge to those who read her book that she would be there to help them when they needed her, even after death. So many miracles were attributed to this precious soul following her death, that she was canonized in just 28 years after her death.

Prior to the final grid anchoring in California, I was guided to the Serpent Mounds in Peebles, Ohio where God asked that I be joined by three of my girlfriends, Judy Stipanovich, Sandy Milczarek, and Susan Roos for the creation of a sacred celebration. Each of my three friends contacted me separately and shared that they had received a divine inspiration that there was a project I was fulfilling with the angels and they were being encouraged to offer their help. In short, God had told them, “Call Jayne, something’s in the works and you’re part of it.”

At the same time they were receiving messages, I was being told that a ceremony involving four people was to be created to honor the four religions and faiths inside the gates of Jerusalem. God wanted us to host a celebration of His light united on the planet, not divided.

We created a holy ritual with sacred readings, prayers, song and messages honoring the community of Jerusalem in all of us. In the chapter ANGELS WITH FUR, I share the symbolism of bluebirds who are God’s messengers of happiness. When the four of us gathered for prayer and ritual dedicated to visualizing a community of peace within the walls of Jerusalem, we were the only humans, other than the park ranger; however, we were joined by hundreds of bluebirds in the trees. I truly believe these winged messengers of happiness were holding the energy of God’s desire for people of all nations to live happily and in peace on the planet together.

Once this holy service energizing the oneness of God within Jerusalem was celebrated, I was asked to be the chauffeur/driver of the energy across the United State via Route 66. I was driving the Divine Mother across the “Mother Road”. I had enjoyed the movie “Driving Miss Daisy.” In this case I was “Driving Miss Mary”.

The Creator’s Star configuration being woven by light energy was a blessing of the New Jerusalem, which is in each and every one of us. As the Bible reflects, The New Jerusalem is a presence of God that is so brilliant and shining that no sun or moon is needed for light. I felt that the angelic assignment was a form of God’s blessing upon all those who sincerely wanted to be closer and more connected to God. Its purpose was to enhance people’s consciousness of God’s Presence.

One day during this incredible odyssey experience when I was feeling “the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak,” I asked for divine insight on what was being created by this energetic star configuration. I was inspired by the angels to turn on the radio and heard the playing of the Walt Disney classic tune, “When you wish upon a star…makes no difference who you are…when you wish upon a star, your dreams come true.” I knew God was expressing His support of our dreams and this energy star would be a blessing to all the dreamers who were dreaming of a better world for the children.

William Wordsworth has written in his INTIMATIONS OF IMMORTALITY:

“Our birth is but a sleep and a forgetting:
The Soul that rises with us, our life’s star,
Hath had elsewhere it’s setting
And cometh from afar
Not in entire forgetfulness,
And not in utter nakedness,
But trailing clouds of glory do we come
From God, who is our home.”

The Creator’s Star was being put in place by God’s order. Nature, saints, angels and archangels, the power of the words of the Bible and the peace of the harp’s vibration were fulfilling the order given.

And so I drove to Illinois and connected with Route 66 – the Mother Road. I drove Route 66 through Missouri, Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and California.
Many interesting occurrences took place on the journey. One of the most precious occurred in Oklahoma.

Twenty years ago, while vacationing in New Orleans, Louisiana I had shopped at a Women’s Exchange where I bought an antique quilt. The quilt was a signature quilt; that is, the women who had stitched the quilt had embroidered their names on the quilt. The quilt was made in the 1930’s in Sayre, Oklahoma and had been a project of a group of women who belonged to the Methodist Church. I had totally forgotten about the quilt. In fact, it was packed away in a linen closet in my home. I stopped for lunch in Sayre, Oklahoma. As I ate my lunch I kept searching in my memory as to why Sayre, Oklahoma had a feeling of familiarity. Then it hit me! The signature quilt stitched by the women of Sayre.

After lunch, I drove through town and looked for the Methodist Church. I found the First United Methodist Church. The church and its office were both open, which in this day and age is a miracle in itself. I chatted with the staff about the quilt. They indicated they would love to see photographs of the quilt. They commented that the ladies had created the quilt as part of a fundraising effort to support the new church that was being built in the 1930’s. I knew that I had merely been the guardian of the quilt and that the quilt was going to be heading back to Sayre, Oklahoma when I got home to Maryland.

Route 66 is a 2400-mile highway that runs from Illinois to California.
Unfortunately, a good part of this incredible route is disappearing. So at times it was no easy task finding where the road went. Route 66 literally brings you to the Pacific Ocean at Santa Monica. I remember having parked my car at the end of the route in California and hearing the angels say to me, “There’s one more road you need to drive.”

Considering the Pacific Ocean was right in front of me, I thought I was going to receive a crash course from the angels on how to walk on water. Instead, the road they were referencing was Route 101 – the Mission Road of California. The angels asked that I drive to as many missions as possible and do a light-weaving blessing in the chapels of the missions. I visited 19 of the 21 missions of California. I found waiting for me to discover, sacred sanctuaries and gardens, and a treasury of religious art that gifted me with an experience of inner peace and serenity. The final mission experience was at the San Rafael Mission in San Rafael, California, and my visit to that mission occurred after the completion of the anchoring of the grid light for the sixth point of the Creator’s Star.

The final point of the grid was woven at Questhaven Retreat in Escondido, California. Questhaven is a Christian retreat situated in northern San Diego County. Founded in 1940 by the Reverends Flower and Lawrence Newhouse, it encompasses 640 acres of pristine wilderness preserve consecrated to the Lord Christ.

The angels chose Questhaven because of Flower Newhouse’s earthly service in cooperation with the angels. After my first encounter with my guardian angel at 11 years old, I began seeking information for myself about the angels. As I delved into researching the angels and validating my own personal experiences, Flower Newhouse’s books were divine blessings in my life. Though I never met her personally, I was touched by her Christward Ministry and service with the angels. For me, Flower Newhouse was the pioneer spirit in awakening America’s consciousness to angels.

Several weeks prior to my arrival at Questhaven, the land surrounding the property experienced horrific destruction due to raging forest fires. Over 8,000 acres of land were reduced to ash because of the fires.

I remember arriving at Questhaven and seeing how close the fire had come to the church on the property. On the front porch of the church was a plastic flowerpot that had melted because of the intensity of the heat. The church was spared. I looked across the fields and saw so much of the land black with ash. My eyes were drawn to a hillside that was totally black from the fire’s charring effects, except for one object. A single white cross stood untouched at the top of the hill. It mirrored to me the energies Flower had put into place at Questhaven. Her devotion to Jesus was so powerful that it withstood threatening fires. Both church and cross did not burn.

As I walked the property of Questhaven and saw the impact of the fire on the environment, I was reminded of the devastation that was left in the wake of Mt. St. Helen’s eruption in 1980 in Oregon. I knew that from the ashes of this fire new life would come forth. I was walking up a hillside when the light of the sun reflected on an object in the ash. I reached down and there was a Rune. The word “Rune” means “secret”. Runes are sacred symbols that originated among the Germanic tribes and were used as divination oracles. There are 24 Rune symbols and one blank Rune in a runic set.

The Rune that I picked up from within the ash is Perth. It is the Rune of initiation, new pathways, quantum leaps in consciousness and evolutionary change.
On the hillside of Questhaven the grid energy was that the Creator’s Star was completed. The light was woven with the light of Archangel Raphael and the Blessed Mother Mary; the light of the element of water; the light of St. Francis of Assisi; the light of dolphins and whales – the angels of the ocean; and God’s light of healing, consecration and inner vision.

St. Francis is a man whom people of all religions know as a saint. He walked away from his family’s fortune to serve God by serving the poor. He was the founder of the Franciscans. His order has spread throughout the world. He saw God in everything. He considered the sun, moon, stars, and animals all family members and would refer to each as brother or sister. He was a messenger of the importance of loving all the creatures God made.

St. Francis believed that in serving the poor, he was serving Jesus. In his Canticle of the Sun, written just prior to his death, he gave thanks for all of God’s gifts. He even recognizes death as a gift. In the Canticle to The Sun he is a messenger to all of us, telling us not to fear death. For when we close our eyes to earth we will be opening them to God, Christ, the angels, saints and our loved ones.

Canticle of Brother Sun and Sister Moon of St. Francis of Assisi:

Most High, all-powerful, all-good Lord,
All praise is Yours, all glory, all honour and all blessings.
To you alone, Most High, do they belong,
and no mortal lips are worthy to pronounce Your Name.
Praised be You my Lord with all Your creatures,
especially Sir Brother Sun,
Who is the day through whom You give us light.
And he is beautiful and radiant with great splendour,
Of You Most High, he bears the likeness.
Praised be You, my Lord, through Sister Moon and the stars,
In the heavens you have made them bright, precious and fair.
Praised be You, my Lord, through Brothers Wind and Air,
And fair and stormy, all weather's moods,
by which You cherish all that You have made.
Praised be You my Lord through Sister Water,
So useful, humble, precious and pure.
Praised be You my Lord through Brother Fire,
through whom You light the night
and he is beautiful and playful and robust and strong.
Praised be You my Lord through our Sister,
Mother Earth
who sustains and governs us,
producing varied fruits with coloured flowers and herbs.
Praise be You my Lord through those who grant pardon
for love of You and bear sickness and trial.
Blessed are those who endure in peace,
By You Most High, they will be crowned.
Praised be You, my Lord through Sister Death,
from whom no-one living can escape.
Woe to those who die in mortal sin!
Blessed are they She finds doing Your Will.
No second death can do them harm.
Praise and bless my Lord and give Him thanks,
And serve Him with great humility.

The energy of the sixth chakra – the intuitive center – was woven into the grid along with the message of John 14:6 – I am the way, the truth, and the life. For me the sixth chakra represents God’s revelations in our life, revelations through intuitive flashes and inspirations. As I wove the energies with the team God had brought together, I knew the Creator’s Star was being put in place to reveal a pathway to the Lord, the truth of the Lord, and eternal life with the Lord. The sixth chakra blessing reveals that in all death experiences, God creates sacred space for the birthing of something new. God doesn’t close a door without opening a new one. Doors closing; doors opening. Death, birth.

I have learned in my life the importance of completions. When a door closes, I respect the closure and look for the new door opening. If you do not close doors behind you and leave them closed, you will experience a draft in your new endeavors.
Additionally, I recommend that in all your activities you make certain that there is the element of completeness.

For example, you are leading a business meeting during your workday. Before leaving the meeting, ask if everyone is complete on what was discussed and what their assignments are. If you get into the ritual of asking yourself if your activities are complete for the moment, you will find you are not leaving bits and pieces of yourself scattered about from the day’s activities. Have you ever had a conversation or meeting that you reflect upon later in the day and wonder who is supposed to do what?

Completeness is not the same as finishing. Completeness is the action of having some sort of closure to whatever activity is taking place. One of the reasons I believe people experience the energy of fatigue syndrome is because of the lack of completeness. When we build upon the feeling that things are left without appropriate closure, we convey to ourselves in an unconscious language that we are not achieving anything. And as a result of this confused message, we start feeling frustrated and tired. When you end a meeting, ask, “Are we all complete here?” Everyone walks away feeling they accomplished something from a meeting that had a beginning and an end.

Life becomes a blur when you lack completeness in your life. You cannot tell where you stop or start. Experiment with taking charge of your life and asking for completeness in your conversations and meetings.

An even more important message of the final grid blessing was for us to fully immerse ourselves in God’s love. Jump in with both feet into God’s love. Be fully alive. Flow with your passion. As the ancient Sanskrit blessing I mentioned earlier tells us: Sat Chit Ananda – Be the fullness of your joy or bliss. In living and loving in your life with passion, joy and bliss, you are glorifying God. God’s love gave you your life. The greatest thanks you can give back to God, is to love the gift of your life.

Even though Questhaven is not next to the ocean, the water connection is very profound. Questhaven was created with an energy of a divine “wellspring” and the essence energies of the grids beneath the earth of Questhaven are very supportive of and are supported by the dolphins and whales in the nearby Pacific Ocean. While walking the property of Questhaven, there were many times I would experience of “bleed through” energy experience where I thought I was on an island in the Pacific. I strongly believe that Questhaven’s energy is in some way connected with Lemuria.

Ted Andrews has created a Tarot deck called The Animal-Wise Tarot. In his accompaniment book he shares that whales bring the message of greater depths of creativity to support making our life more wondrous. He writes that three of the most ancient and powerful creative forces have always been water, sound and breath. Dolphins come as messengers that these three powers are coming together in our lives. I knew that God has chosen these totems for the final anchoring in the grid light weaving assignment as a blessing of encouragement. God is encouraging us to make creative choices to make life more wondrous.

Once I completed the grid light weaving of the Creator’s Star at Questhaven, I drove to San Rafael Mission via Route 101. The route took me right through San Francisco and to my amazement across The Golden Gate Bridge. I remember coming upon the bridge and being so awe-struck that I was actually driving across the bridge in a state of numbness. I wasn’t able to absorb the incredible scenery. I was in a state of shock of actually driving on the Golden Gate Bridge.

I looked forward with excitement to the return drive home, which would allow me to cross the bridge again, hopefully in a more conscious state. That was not to be God’s plan for me.

After completing my light blessing at San Rafael Mission, I once again got in my car and headed towards the Golden Gate Bridge. I remember coming up over the hill of Sausalito and fully expecting to see the bridge, but instead it was the tollbooth. I thought to myself, “Oh, it must be after the toll booth that I get on the bridge.”
However, once I paid the toll I was back in downtown San Francisco. The bridge wasn’t part of my route home. I couldn’t figure out where the bridge went.

When I got back to the home of my hostess and was having dining with her and her husband, I questioned the husband about how was it possible for me to cross the bridge one way but not cross the bridge going the same route home. This man is an engineer and from the way he looked at me I could tell he definitely thought I didn’t have both oars in the water. He simply remarked, “It’s not possible. You have to go over the bridge to get back home.”

I could sense that my adventure was making him a little nervous about who was sleeping under his roof, and to be quite frank, the episode made me a little nervous as I didn’t know what had happened.

That evening the angels would awaken me and explain what had transpired. In the middle of the night, when the angels awoke me, they had me look at my toll ticket. The time I crossed through the tollbooth was 13:13. I thought to myself that this was an incredible numerical message as the Creator’s Star grid project had began with a vision of the Blessed Mother in the Great Pyramid in Egypt on 12:12 – December 12, 1994.

Now in November 1996 – almost two years later, the project was complete. The angels were now showing me the message of 13:13. Was this in some way conveying the next step now that the 12:12 project was complete?

The angels encouraged me to do one of my favorite tasks – research the number 13. In a symbology book I carried cross country with me, I found the description for what is called the “13th Aeon.” This is a sort of dimensional doorway. It occurs when a student of enlightenment is ready to cross the “Golden Gate” into Shamballa or God consciousness.

I read and re-read the words “Golden Gate”. I realized I had been gifted the experience of teleportation into God consciousness. Why? Because my life is dedicated to delivering God’s messages. God wanted to give me an experience because quite frankly, I would pass it onto you. The message of this experience is that we often times worry about how things are going to happen. Through God we can literally be picked up and put down where God wants us to be without ever really knowing how it happened. It’s God being God. By immersing ourselves in God, things happen that just plain go beyond any rational explanation

In my lectures I often come across people who are concerned about the catastrophes that earth changes may cause. I know from the Golden Gate Bridge experience, that you can focus all your energies on the fear of what might happen and then in a divine blink the earth change experience happens. You’ll find yourself in another reality where God has placed you and you missed the whole “catastrophe” part. Won’t you feel really foolish?

I was given the ride of my life and I wasn’t even conscious of the scenery. Where was I when the ride was going on? I cannot answer that. I know I was here in one moment and there in the next.

What came in the middle I missed by blinking. This life is really just a blink in the divine reality. As I drove my car up over the hill to where the Golden Gate Bridge was in the third dimension, God teleported my car with me in it – thinking I was doing the driving - to the opposite side of the bridge in a divine blink of the eye. God was giving me a glimpse of the reality that exists beyond my earthly sight. I was so focused on seeing the Golden Gate Bridge that I totally missed the holy instant I was “out of here”.

One of my favorite poems is entitled “Earth Blindness” and it conveys the message that we get so used to seeing everything through earth eyes that we are blinded to what is beyond our earthly sight.

“Last night an angel met me at the door;
He said, ‘Time is no more!
I have been sent from Heaven to say,
Tomorrow dawns fro thee a New Day.
Time will become Eternity for thee;
Sleep thou tonight; tomorrow come with me.’
And then I wept, my face unto the wall;
I heard a thousand earthly voices call,
Unfinished tasks, loved faces, children dear,
And in my soul I cried: ‘Oh leave me here!
Come not tomorrow, angel, to my gate;
I crave more time; I pray thee, wait!’
Then turned the angel with so sad a smile,
‘Thou foolish one, to pray to wait the while.
Open thine eyes! If thou couldst only see.
The visions just beyond awaiting thee!
Wouldst those abide where days dissolve in night?
How blind thou art to things beyond thy sight!’”
- Anon.

How truly blind I was on that sunny afternoon on the Golden Gate Bridge to things that were beyond my human sight.

I do know that on the Golden Gate Bridge I was traveling at “Godspeed”. I believe there is no coincidence that John Glenn was selected to go into outer space a second time. On his first voyage in 1962 he was wished a safe journey by Scott Carpenter’s words: GODSPEED, JOHN GLENN. Scott Carpenter, the Mercury astronaut who was Mr. Glenn’s backup in 1962, came up with the inspiration just seconds before the final countdown. The words were re-echoed to us when John Glenn returned to space on October 29, 1998. Following the launch NASA played a tape for the crew onboard of a greeting from Carpenter, “Good luck, have a safe flight, and once again, Godspeed, John Glenn.”

Imagine your body is a spaceship. It’s the vehicle in which you travel through life. As you raise your vibration, your spaceship oscillates faster than before. Oscillation is the speed of vibration. The speed of the vibrational level of your spaceship is determined by your physical condition, your moods, your energy, your environment and so on.

Your life unfolds according to the energy frequency you choose to operate your spaceship in. Positive inspirational experience will be of a higher frequency and vibrational speed than negative, limiting ones. Once you begin loving yourself and respecting God’s gift of your life and your spaceship, your energy moves fast and faster and the faster frequency creates a dimension of greater positive energy in your life.

The fast frequency leads you away from negative events or lesser frequency situations. Energy seeks it own level. You cannot have two discordant energies sharing the same space. An energy of 25,000 cycles operating next to an energy of 250,000 cycles will attempt to keep the speed for a short time and then eventually will fall away.

When your energy is high enough you experience “disappearance” or becoming invisible. As you move your life into operating at a higher frequency through experiences that are uplifting, you move towards an oneness with God’s speed or infinite light speed.

Your life becomes infinitely large and expansive. In such a space, Mother Theresa was able to serve in a ghetto environment and see Christ in the face of everyone she served. In her service everything disappeared around her except the face of the divine and the call of the divine to serve. Like the Beach Boys’ song, it’s about “picking up good vibrations.”

In November 1996, I drove home to Angel Heights. It would be nine months before the Blessed Mother and Archangel Raphael would call upon me again to drive Miss Mary and I will share that story with you in my next blog.

Love in abundance, Jayne

WEAVING AN ANGELIC GRID - PART I

2011-09-25T09:54:00.001-07:00

In 1995, through divine angelics inspirations from Archangel Raphael, I was asked to participate in the creation of an energy grid in the shape of a six-pointed star, known as the Creator’s Star and Star of David by weaving energy at six points chosen by God.

I was inspired by the angels to share with you the messages that I received while weaving the six-pointed star grid as these messages are especially relevant for us in 2011 and 2012. The angelic grid is a grid that supports the birthing of consciousness of being blessings of God. In 1995, the grid supported the arrival of "angel babies".

The grid's energy supports each and every one of us in awakening to our divine identity as earth angels of hope, encouragement, support and love. We are in an essence experiencing a new awareness of ourselves. We are having an infusion experience with the Star of David. Heaven and earth comes together inside of each of us and stirs within us an awakening consciousness that we are blessed to be blessings.

The six-pointed star has many symbolic meanings. The upward pointing triangle of fire and masculine energy meets the downward pointing triangle of water and feminine energy, the two merging in perfect harmony. Because the blending of the two triangles creates divine emergent energy, six is known as the perfect number.
The base of each triangle bisects the other under the apex, forming the symbols for air and earth. The star portrays the four elements, which are combined with the vibration of the number three (the triangle) to produce the sacred number seven. The star itself has only six points, the seventh point is said to be invisible and represents the spiritual element of divine transformation.

In Freemasonry the six-pointed star represents totality. The Star of David was worn on the Shield of King David. It is also been called Solomon’s Seal because Solomon, son of David and Bathsheba, summoned angels with it until his death in 903 b.c. The Seal of Solomon appears in holy writings and has strong associations with Hebrew mysticism.

This symbol has also been called The Creator’s Star and the six points of the star have been representations of God’s power, wisdom, love, majesty, justice, and mercy. It is believed that the concept of the six-pointed star representing the Star of Creation originated from the last verse in the first chapter of Genesis: “Then God saw everything that He had made, and indeed it was very good. So the evening and the morning were the sixth day.” At the completion of the sixth day God had completed both heaven and earth. In my research of the Creator’s Star I was intrigued when guided to the Biblical reference because the verse is Genesis 1:31January 31st – or 1:31 is my birth date.

The star has also come to represent the temple of Jerusalem, an elaborate sacred space where heaven and earth; spirit and soul conjoin. In alchemical teachings “conjunction” or sacred marriage took place in the Holy of Holies – the heart of the temple.

The function of my weaving a Creator’s Star/ Star of David energy grid was to serve in providing sacred space, conjoining angels of heaven with people of earth in service to God.

When Raphael first inspired me with God’s assignment, I was simply asked if I would be willing to serve with the angels in the creation of a six-pointed star grid that would be a blessing to children coming to earth.

I was not initially told where the points would be. Each location would be revealed just prior to the time when God wanted me to go to that location. To Raphael’s question as to whether or not I was willing to answer this call of service, I simply replied, “When do we start? I’m ready.”

The first point of the star was Portland, Oregon. I was asked to spend 21 days in Portland in November 1995. This is where the weaving began.

The angels shared with me that the Creator’s Star would serve as a guiding light for children coming to earth. I met in my travels incredible men and women who in their marriages were experiencing difficulties in pregnancies. The angels sent special blessings to these people.

To some souls on earth life has no value or meaning. We have witnessed the tragedy of a man blowing up a building in Oklahoma City with many lives lost, including the lives of innocent children in a daycare center. There are, however, precious people on the planet who are dedicating time, energy, and resources to welcoming a baby into their lives. The angels referred to the next generation of children as “Angel babies”.

In addition to my Creator’s Star weaving experience, in several of the locations I was asked by the angels to give a workshop as a fundraiser and all monies from the workshop went directly to the families of a baby who was experiencing major health afflictions.

For example, the weaving tour energy began in Baltimore, Maryland with a “kickoff” fund-raiser at Heavens to Betsy Angel Store in Ellicott City, Maryland. Betsy McMahan, the storeowner, hosted my workshop and the monies raised benefited a Maryland child who was in need of surgery for a collapsed lung. Not only had I been made aware of this child by the angels, but the angels inspired many others as over $50,000 was raised by people responding to a photograph and article about this child, which appeared on the front page of The Baltimore Sun on September 29, 1995 – Michaelmas Day. This was just one example of the angels revealing to us that we are making a difference in each other’s lives. We do not have to feel that we have to do it all. We just have to do our part.

At the end of October 1995, I was asked by the angels to prepare to go to Portland, Oregon. As I truly do operate on a wing and a prayer, I asked for inspiration of where I could stay for the 21 days in Portland. I heard the name, “Hilda Kemp.”

Hilda Kemp was a woman who had contacted me for a one-hour spiritual consultation over the phone. She and I had never met in person. She knew of me through my book. I knew it was quite possible that when I called Hilda and asked if I could stay at her home for 21 days she would quickly say goodbye to me. Yet I knew this was who God wanted me to call. When I called Hilda, I outlined why I was being called to Oregon. Hilda paused for a moment and then shared that she was a widow and had a spare bedroom and for me to proceed with my plans to come to Portland.

Hilda was 80 years of age and because of a diet of natural supplements, looked liked she was in her 60’s. I am quite certain I was placed in Hilda’s home as an attempt by Spirit to clean up my unhealthy eating habits.

Hilda was like the grandmother I never had. We watched Anne of Green Gables together. We talked spirituality into the wee hours of the morning. Hilda was called home to God a few years ago. I know there was a joyous reunion between her and her husband. I truly miss her.

I was placed in Hilda’s home not only because of the blessing Hilda was to be, but additionally because I was one block away from The Grotto in Portland. The Grotto, as it is commonly called, is The National Sanctuary of Our Sorrowful Mother, a beautiful 62-acre Catholic Shrine and botanical garden located in Portland, Oregon. The Friars of the Order of Servants of Mary administer it. Each morning for 21 days I would go to The Grotto for prayer and meditation time.

While in Portland I was asked by the angels to meet them at Mt. St. Helens. I remembered as I dashed out the door of my home in Upperco, Maryland, on my way to the airport to fly to Portland, Oregon, I reached into a heart-shaped basket in which I keep holy cards honoring saints. I believe the saints are truly universal messengers of God just as the angels are. I asked for a blessing from the saint that would be traveling with me and the card I drew was St. Helen. St. Helen had a church built over the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem and over the cave where Jesus was born in Bethlehem. She retrieved the cross on which Jesus died and is known as the Discover of the True Cross.

There are things we do in our lives and at the time of doing them we do not understand why. I remember when Mt. St. Helens erupted in 1980; I contacted the U.S. Geological Survey people and obtained photographs of the eruption. The photographs held me spellbound; in many of the photographs you can see spirit faces.

When the angels called me to experience Mt. St. Helens with them I was emotionally moved by the energy of the mountain and the greatness of God. It was a humbling experience. Let us never forget who really has the power. God is in control.

While at Mt. St. Helens I was guided to spend time in meditation weaving together with the energy of prayers, Biblical verses, songs and harp blessings the light of Archangel Michael; the light of God’s fire that burns within each of us – a sacred/cosmic fire; the light of St. Helen; the light of the “Fire Sisters” and volcanoes on earth; the light of God’s Will, God’s Power and God’s Protection; the light of Divine Order.

Additionally each grid point was connected with an ethereal body chakra. Mt. St. Helens was the foundation chakra. It contains the energy of building one’s life upon faith in God.

In traditional chakra teachings, the base or foundation chakra contains energies that support us in having our needs for food/shelter and clothing met. The grid weaving included the message of John 6:48: “I am the bread of life.” Each of the grid points established the energy of our relationship with God. God is the food that sustains us. Feed your faith in God and all your needs will be met. God will not fail you.

At Mt. St. Helens, the angels reminded me of how inspired I was by the book Angels of Pompeii, Photographs by Stephen Brigidi and Poetry by Robert Bly. When I first learned of this project in the works, I called Stephen Brigidi and gave him a blessing from the angels. He expressed that the project was behind schedule and he seemed a little frustrated. I told him not to give up on this project; it was very important and as a sign from the angels of the importance of this work of art, I was to purchase the first issue of his Special Edition. I have in my home Special Edition No. 1 of 200 of this incredible book.

On the front leaf of this book are the words, “When photographer and teacher Stephen Brigidi traveled to Pompeii for the first time, he was captivated by the luminous frescoes of angels on the decayed walls of the ancient city. Here, long after the destruction by Vesuvius in 79 A.D., the angels remain, timeless and transcendent.”

Vesuvius is a volcanic mountain in Naples, Italy. No matter what is erupting in our lives, God sends the angels to remain around us – “timeless and transcendent.”

The “Fire Sisters” that were part of the weaving energy are Mt. Shasta, Mt. St. Helens, Mt. Hood, Mt. Adams, Mt. Rainier and Mt. Baker. The voice of God spoke to me through the volcanoes. The voice assured me that even when our whole world is erupting and our old ways are being destroyed; know that at the same time space is being made for new things. New life to take shape. New experiences. New creations. A whole new world being birthed from the ash.

Following the sacred weaving ceremony, I was inspired to purchase books, videos, and posters of Mt. St. Helens. One of the films showed the eruption of Mt. St. Helens, the fires that followed and gave a Biblical quote that spoke to my soul:

“And behold, the Lord passed by and a great and strong wind tore into the mountains and broke the rock in pieces…and after the wind an earthquake…and after the earthquake a five…and after the fire a still small voice.” 1 Kings 19:11.

I felt God touch my soul with His words. In my own life I have experienced winds of change that tore my life apart; my life being broken into pieces; the ground beneath me quaking and shaking; emotional fires burning with me. After all of this, it happened I found myself at a place where I heard the still small voice of God whispering to me, “It’s a whole new world being created inside of you.” Have you experienced this in your life?

In the Bible in Exodus 13:21-22 the appearance of Yahweh was recorded as “A pillar of cloud by day, and a pillar of fire by night.” This pretty well describes the volcanic spirit energy.

To help align yourself with the spirit of God during the winds, earthquakes and fires of your life, I suggest that you align yourself through sound with the sound of YAHWEH. You can do this by chanting praise to God through the “AH” vibration such as AL-leuia. The vowel sound of “AH” opens the heart to love. You can also chant AUM emphasizing the AH such as AHHMMMMMM.

The message of the first grid point was that true power belongs to God, and that we are to express our faith by expressing our trust that our lives are in divine order even in the midst of upheaval. You can utilize the affirmation, “My life is in divine order” to support your standing steadfast with your faith when the ground beneath you is quaking and shaking. Even if it appears your life is on shaky ground, affirm with conviction that your life is in divine order.

The experience at Mt. St. Helens mirrored to me that there are times in our lives when we are each a phoenix resurrected from the ashes. We arise as newborns from the ashes of our own personal eruptions. When I returned home from Oregon, I found my furnace had been stopped up by a chimney sweeps’ cleaning service and as a result ashes were strewn throughout my home. I knew that I was witnessing a physical manifestation of what was happening spiritually inside of me.

In February 1996 I was called to rendezvous with the angels in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. A friend who knew that a special assignment with the angels was bringing me to Florida, arranged for me to stay at the private home of someone she knew. So I was to stay at the home of a friend of a friend. What occurred is one of the most bizarre incidents in my travels.

The first evening of my stay the angels told me not to unpack anything because I wasn’t staying beyond this first night. They indicated I needed to unpack the angel art that I travel with and place one painting facing out to the west; one to the east; one to the north and one to the south. I was setting up a protective wall of energy. I had no idea what I was being protected from.

The next day I left my hostess’s home and drove to Butterfly World in Coconut Creek, Florida. This would be the site of the weaving energy. While in the sacred energy of the conservatory I asked for divine inspiration of what to do regarding my living arrangements. I was inspired to go back to the home and wait for the hostess and tell her I needed to leave.

I definitely did not handle this situation abundantly. I was certain that something was not abundant in the neighborhood or the angels wouldn’t be moving me out so fast. I didn’t want to alarm the hostess but at the same time I was concerned for her safety and my own as well. When the sun began to set, I wanted to get out of “Dodge” and so I decided to leave her a note. That choice was purely my own. It was not divinely inspired. And it is a decision that I look back on with disappointment in myself. I called her later that evening and with good reason she was very angry with me.

I tried to express to her that I had been inspired to move on, and I attempted to smooth things over, I explained that it could be an underground energy source that was not abundant for my own energy. In the conversation she blurted out that she had already decided to put the house on the market because of drug transactions taking place next door. When she said that, I felt myself rejoice inside for her decision and for the protection of the angels around my service. However, I still felt disappointed in my handling of the situation.

Whenever you are called to serve God’s Light, there is always an energy that wants to see you fail and wants to stop you. I experienced this energy in some form throughout the entire grid-weaving project.

Once I had left this home, I quickly realized I had no place to stay. I could not reach the person who had made arrangements for me to stay at the home I had just left. Quite frankly, I knew that this individual wasn’t going to be too happy with me either.

The angels came to my rescue by whispering Rachel Salley’s name into my ear. Rachel Salley is a British medium who now lives in Florida with her husband, Robert. I called Rachel in Port St. Lucie. When she heard my voice she said, “Jayne, I knew something was going on with you. I have been thinking about you all day long. How can I help you?” I asked if she knew anyone living near Ft. Lauderdale who would allow me to stay in his or her home. Rachel had very good friends – John and Sandy Martinez – in a community near Ft. Lauderdale. Rachel gave me their address and told me to go to their home and ask for their help.

Through the grace of God I easily found their home, and parked outside of their house. Sandy and John came home from work and there was this strange lady parked in a car by their home. I approached Sandy and explained I, too, was a friend of Rachel Salley’s and I explained my problem in having no place to stay. Sandy replied, “Sure you can stay with us. Come on in.” As I unloaded my belongings, I heard her husband following Sandy into the house asking, “Who is that woman?” “An Angel Lady? What’s an Angel Lady? She’s staying with us!”

I give thanks to Rachel Salley’s help and to Sandy and John Martinez’ kindness to me. Their home became my home base for the weaving of the energy in Florida.

As I shared, Butterfly World was selected as the site for the sacred weaving. When Butterfly World opened for business in the spring of 1988, it became the first and largest butterfly house in the United States. It is truly a paradise to behold. At Butterfly World you will find gardens, waterfalls, tropical plants, flowers and butterflies. Butterfly World promotes itself as the largest single butterfly habitat in the world with over 5,000 butterflies enjoying a natural rain forest environment.

A few years prior to my grid weaving experience, I had been gifted an angel painting that I treasure. It depicts an angel seated by a stream. There’s a small waterfall across from the angel. A tree is nearby with a white dove perched in the tree. The angel stretches her arm out and a butterfly touches her fingertip.

During one of my visits to Butterfly World, I was seated inside the conservatory. There was a small stream in front of me with a waterfall. A tree was near me and I looked up to see a single white dove in the tree, cooing to its heart’s content. Just then I heard the angels whisper, “Art imitates life.” A beautiful butterfly fluttered by. I stretched out my arm and it gave me a flutter-bye blessing as it touched my fingertips.

The second point of the Creator’s Star was woven with the light of Archangel Jophiel; the light of the element of air; the light of St. Benedict; the light of butterflies; and God’s light of illumination; wisdom and understanding. The second grid point contains the energy of the second chakra; the chakra of identity as well as the verse from John 8:12 – I am the light of the world. The essence of this grid conveys to us our identity with the Christ Consciousness and relationship with the light Christ brought to the world.

The message of the second point on the grid is God’s teaching that comes through butterflies. Butterflies are symbols of freedom and light. In many countries people consider butterflies as messengers from loved ones in heaven. There’s a legend that butterflies developed from the tears of the Virgin Mary. In China butterflies symbolize the soul, transformation and rebirth.

Butterflies inspire us to remember we are evolving from our life as caterpillars and in the process there is a time in which we are in transition. We each are no longer the caterpillars and we’re not quite at the point of becoming the butterfly. This time period requires trust and faith in the process of pushing through old barriers into becoming our true butterfly self complete with glorious wings.

Additionally, the blessing of understanding was taught to me. In a dream, God appeared to King Solomon and asked him, “What shall I give you?’ Solomon could have asked for anything. His response is found in 1 King 3:9:

“…give to your servant an understanding heart to judge your people, that I may discern between good and evil…”

This answer was very pleasing to God in Solomon’s time and is very pleasing to God today when we choose to ask for an understanding heart for our own lives. In our prayers we can ask for the ability to understand with God’s illumination, that which is good and evil for us.

When you find yourself confused by events going on in your life, still yourself and ask for God’s understanding. “God, what would you have my heart understand about this problem?”

St. Benedict’s blessing was woven into the star grid because of his life being an example of a messenger of God’s wisdom, discretion and loving kindness. St. Benedict built twelve monasteries. His monasteries were sanctuaries of light and learning. Without the monasteries which kept focused on transcribing manuscripts of the Bible, and teachings of God’s wisdom and illumination, the Dark Ages would have been even darker.

When St. Benedict was dying, he asked his fellow monks to assist him in standing in the chapel of one of his monasteries. He raised his hands in praise to God as he died. I was inspired when I read this, because he was creating a “Y” with his body. Arms raised to heaven to honor the glory of Yahweh.

Benedict established an order or rule for monastic life which many orders still function under to this day. Interesting enough, the second chakra energizes our duality energies. All of us have masculine and feminine energies within us. St. Benedict was a twin. His sister Scholastica founded the Benedictine order of nuns.

The element of air, woven into the second grid point, is representative of our mental faculties; our using the gift of our minds to become great-thinkers.

Identify yourself as someone whom God has blessed with the gift of free will. With that freedom of choice, choose to think of yourself as a God-thought. Exercise your mind muscles daily.

Think about the thoughts you are thinking. Ask yourself if the thoughts are worth thinking.

In the song from The Wizard of Oz: "If I Only Had A Brain," the Scarecrow sings: With the thoughts I'd be thinking, I would be another Lincoln. If I only had a brain."

We have brains. We can stop and analyze our thoughts and ask ourselves honestly: "With the thoughts that I'm thinking, I could be another _______________." And we can fill in the blank.

In the weeks to come, I will continue to share with you through my blog, the weaving of the four remaining blessings points of the Angelic Grid.

Angelic Blessings,

I AM THE GRAIL CUP I SEEK

2011-09-12T06:59:00.001-07:00

While attending the Michael Conclave in Calgary, Canada in March, 1994, I was inspired by Spirit that I needed to attend a conference that was being held in Egypt in December, 1994.

The purpose of the trip was to gather people together on the 12th day of December – the 12th month- for a ceremony of rededicating ourselves and the earth to God’s Will.

Spirit was calling us to be messengers from God to choose love instead of hatred, understanding instead of judgment and peace instead of war. The place the ceremony was to be held was the Great Pyramid of Giza.

Even though I clearly heard the message, the part of me that likes to mimic Bill Cosby’s Noah, “You want me to build what?” asked for confirmation through what I call the Trinity blessing.

Give me a message three times and I know it has God’s stamp on it. I considered the inspiration at Calgary as sign number one.

Following my trip to Canada, I went to have a private session with an incredible medium that lived in Arlington, Virginia. The medium is Rev. Reed Brown.

I expected to receive messages from loved ones in spirit. God had other plans for my session. As Rev. Brown opened to God’s inspiration, he indicated that there was a large animal being shown to him. He described its big nose and humps on its back. He proclaimed that there was a camel being shown to him.

Rev. Brown explained that the camel wanted to give me a big friendly lick and that the camel was a messenger from God that I was to go to Egypt and that while I was there I would receive a message in a sacred place similar to a “holy of holies.” Now understand Rev. Brown knew nothing of my plans to go to Egypt. I knew that Rev. Brown had delivered sign number two.

About a week later my cousin Marty called me from Las Cruces, New Mexico. Marty was so excited she could hardly get the words out. Marty had just begun to learn to meditate. During one of her meditation sessions, she clearly heard God’s voice say to her, “Go visit Mrs. Brown, she has something to share with you.”

This was all new to Marty and so there was a part of her rational self that was questioning an inspiration that wanted her to go next door to Mrs. Brown’s house and inquire what Mrs. Brown had for her.

Marty decided “nothing ventured; nothing gained” so she went next door and knocked on the front door of her 85-year-old neighbor. Marty explained to Mrs. Brown that what she was going to ask might sound crazy; however she was meditating and felt she had clearly heard God’s voice tell her to visit Mrs. Brown because Mrs. Brown had something to share with her. Mrs. Brown smiled at my cousin and replied, “Come inside, dear, I’ve been expecting you.”

As it turns out, Mrs. Brown was a long-time student of spiritual development and religions. Mrs. Brown and Marty chatted the evening away. As Marty rose to go home Mrs. Brown remarked, “And by the way, please tell your cousin that God is calling her to go to Egypt.”

Marty dashed home and called me and shared the message. Just like Rev. Brown, Marty did not know I was considering going to Egypt. After she shared Mrs. Brown’s message, Marty asked, “What does it mean?” I replied, “It means tomorrow I am sending in my deposit for the trip to Egypt.”

There would be several more messengers who would come forward prior to my trip to Egypt. One was Michelle Anderson. God has blessed Michelle as the guardian of an incredible healing technique known as the Master Alignment. Prior to my going to Egypt, Michelle gave me a message that while in Egypt I would change my name. I have to admit that when she told me that my first thought was, “Oh great, I am going to come back thinking I’m the Queen of Sheba.” My thoughts were very flippant when she shared her message.

During my trip to Egypt both Rev. Brown and Michelle’s messages would come true. While I was visiting an ancient Egyptian temple, I toured a part of the temple known as the Holy of Holies.

While standing in the energy of this sacred space, I felt the presence of God come over me and give to me the following message: Change the spelling of your name from Jane to JAYNE. When people ask you, “Why did you change your name, tell them the ‘Y’ stands for YAHWEH and you are serving as a messenger to inspire people to put God in the center of their lives.” From that moment forward my name has been Jayne. I love the letter “Y in the center of my name. “Y” inspires me with the image of myself with my arms held up to God.

During my trip to Egypt I had the opportunity to be in the Queen’s Chamber of the Great Pyramid. While in the Queen’s Chamber I had a vision of Mary and the Christ Child in her arms. I knew I was to share this vision with others and was guided to Marty Betz, a truly gifted artist, whom I commissioned on behalf of the angels to create in physical form what I saw on 12-12-94. Interestingly enough, I picked up the completed artwork from Marty on September 29, 1995 – Michaelmas Day.

As I experienced the vision in Egypt, I saw Archangel Michael standing in front of Mary and the Christ Child. I felt he was a protector of her energy and that was why he was in front of her. It would later be revealed to me that Michael was standing in front of Mary as a veil to an energy that I was not yet ready to experience or witness.

On Mother’s Day weekend of 1995 while co-leading a women’s spiritual retreat with Lucky Sweeny, the veil was lifted and I encountered Archangel Raphael and began learning of my co-service with Raphael in creating a Star of David grid energy pattern as an angelic assignment. When Michael stepped away from the front of the vision, which first began in the Great Pyramid on 12-12-94 and was completed on Mother’s Day 1995, I saw Raphael holding a Grail Cup with the world on the front of the cup.

The Holy Grail has fascinated the minds and captivated the hearts of many of us. I can remember as a young child being enchanted with the legend of the heroic King Arthur, his glorious knights and his inspirational Round Table. That enchantment grew into my quest to learn more.

I became a Grail Seeker; one who began her journey in pursuit of information about the Holy Grail, and in time realized that I was on a journey of self-discovery. That which I sought outside of myself was leading to that which was within me waiting to be found.

The Grail shows up in many cultures and traditions. What is it about the Grail that intrigues us on such an intimate level? What symbolic message can be interpreted from these tales of old that would hold relevance for us today?

The Grail reportedly came to the earth during the mighty battle for good and evil waged in heaven. While some angels sided with Satan and some with God, a third group of neutral angels brought down a “loving cup” and placed it on earth. This act was to be a reminder to humanity that through communion with the Christ energy, those lost in hell could find their way back to heaven.

A similar interpretation describes the sacred chalice as originating as a stone, an emerald from the crown of Lucifer. Michael, with his flaming sword, struck the jewel from Lucifer’s crown. The stone fell to earth and out of this gem the Holy Grail was created. A symbol of good being victorious over evil.

According to Christian legend, the Grail Cup was the same cup used by Jesus at the Last Supper. It was believed that Joseph of Arimathaea, a disciple of Jesus, brought the Grail to the place of Jesus’ crucifixion. The cup is said to have caught the blood pouring from the body of Jesus.

Years later, Joseph captained a ship and crew and took the sacred relics in his possession, the bloody spear used by the Roman soldiers to pierce the side of Jesus and the Holy Grail cup, to England to a place now known as Glastonbury. It has been inferred that the oarsmen on that ship were later incarnated as the Knights of the Round Table. This same group would gather again as the founders of the United States of America.

At the Round Table, symbolic of unity with God, was a mysterious empty seat, called the Siege Perilous, where none might sit except he who was successful in questing after the Holy Grail. It represented the perfect individual, or the “Christed One”. Sir Galahad, son of Sir Lancelot, attained this high honor because of his spiritual purity.

In lore, the Grail has been described as a greatly sought-after object. While the search for the Grail is depicted as long, hard and demanding, it is deemed as an exceedingly worthy pursuit. This is because the search is symbolic of seeking balance in one’s own life. In all the stories, the knights went out beyond themselves, sacrificing much along the way. Vigilantly walking the path between the opposites of good and evil, between fear and courage, they were inspired with the realization of their highest spiritual potential.

In James Russell Lowell’s “Vision of Sir Launfal” the arrogant knight rode forth in search of the Holy Grail and threw a gold piece to a leper who rejected it. After years of unsuccessfully searching for the Holy Grail, the knight returned home and encountered the same leper. This time St. Launfal shared with the leper his last piece of bread and offered him a drink from his cup. The leper revealed himself to be Christ and the cup transformed into the long sought-after Holy Grail cup. This is a lesson that Christ taught: What you do for others you do for Christ.

What significance does the Holy Grail hold for us now and why did I see it as part of my vision in Egypt?

The cup itself is symbolic of the heart. Christ’s command “Drink from it, all of you” is an offering of the Christ energy to all who commune and drink of the cup of the love of Jesus for humanity.

The Holy Grail is the embodiment of love from God’s heart to ours. It is the outpouring of God’s love, which fills each of our lives as we search for truth. Gaining God’s truth will unlock the mysteries of life and death, by revealing to us our own eternal being through Christ consciousness.

We are all knights. We are all seekers of that which is our own internal truth. However, like Sir Launfal, we discover the Grail only when we come back home or to the center point of our life.

Sometimes it is when there is a loss of something, or it feels as if we’ve hit rock bottom, that we discover that which has always been within us waiting to be uncovered.

Every One of us has within us the potential for this spiritual awakening. The moment that occurs in our life when we realize that instead of seeking a cup outside ourselves we proclaim, “Aha! I am the cup I seek.”

Each one of us is a sacred vessel of God’s life and light. We are a vessel of God’s love, one breath, one heartbeat, one body, one energy, one consciousness through which pours God’s illumination.

In the vision Raphael inspires us to discover the cup within us and lift our cup, our life, upward in glorification of God through service.

Spirit inspired me with the message that through service to God – drinking of the cup of service – God’s will for earth will be achieved. Raphael represents God’s healing hands lifting us up in consciousness, frequency, vibration, awareness and understanding. God lifts us up from the ashes of our lives.

At the same time I was communing with Raphael on Mother’s Day weekend, a woman named Allison Carter who lives in Berkeley Springs, West Virginia was in meditation. During that meditation she looked out of her home, which overlooks Cacapon Mountain. She saw a huge angel appear and the angel said to her, “Please invite Jayne Howard to your home and ask her to come spend time with me here.” Allison later shared with me that she felt she was “angel ignorant” at that time in her life and so she asked the angel, “Who do I tell Jayne invites her?” The angel replied, “Archangel Raphael.”

Allison thought I would think she was crazy, as she didn’t know who Raphael was but did what was requested of her. When she told me the name Raphael, I immediately asked, “When can I come?”

As we looked at our schedules I realized the importance of the meeting and chose the 4th of July as the date to make the trip. As our country celebrated the energy of freedom, I was enveloped with the energy of God’s desire for us to freely embrace the “God-thoughts” that we are.

While in meditation with Raphael at Allison’s home I received further instruction with regard to my angelic assignment to create an energy Star of David. At the conclusion of my meditation, Allison asked me if I had ever visited Cacapon Mountain. It was one of those moments when a cosmic connection is made. One of those times that you sense the bigger light bulb going on inside of your head. I replied that I had in fact been there 24 years prior…on the honeymoon of my first marriage.

I had returned to participate in a mystical marriage to God’s Will for my life. Allison was also blessed by the angelic energies sent by God that weekend. Her own life became a life of service to God in cooperation with the angels.

The painting of Mary holding the Christ Child and Raphael holding the cup of service started on its own traveling tour. I was guided by the angels to take the painting into homes where people were establishing healing practices, and to leave the painting there as a blessing upon their service. For many years, the painting moved from home to home. Finally it came to a permanent place of service here at Angel Heights Healing Arts Center.

So many people have shared that as they gaze upon the painting the true painter’s voice – the voice of God – speaks to them personally. I was asked to commission this painting not as validation of my vision but rather validation of God’s eternal love for us and desire for us to experience divine healing. God blesses us to be a blessing to others.

The art that I have been led to purchase or the visions I have been given and have commissioned others to create in tangible form are blessings I am to share with others. I always laughed that I get to do the art shopping for the angels. I buy the art they want people to see - people who will cross my path.

Letting our hearts be inspired by art is one of the many ways that God delivers divine healing to us. There’s something that goes on between those who stand witness to the art and the work of art itself.

I have been inspired by the angels to team up with amazingly talented artists to bring to you artistic offerings. On these projects, I create a meditation cd to accompany the beautiful work of art.

For those of you who are on my mailing list, you have seen my flyers promoting the work of Melody Loving (Angelic Art Odyssey); Joan Short (Angel Portraits); Cheryl Kirsch (Psalm91Angels.com); and Paula Matthew, csj. (A Rune Art Offering/Story Picture Experience and I-Ching Art Experience). I feel so blessed to be serving God in the company of these earthly angels whose creations are divine blessings in artistic form.

As many of you know, I was also inspired by the angels to create INSPIRE YOUR HEART WITH THE ARTS DAY, celebrated annually on January 31st. Every day is an opportunity to inspire your heart with the arts.

Last evening I watched a wonderful program about ActionAmerica.com. It shared the message of each year making 9/11 a day of positive actions.

Isn't that a wonderful inspiration?!

Angelic Blessings of Inspiration to each and every one of you,
Love, Jayne

ARCHANGEL MICHAEL

2011-09-02T14:52:00.000-07:00

Dear Angelic Blog Buddies:

In March of 1994 in Calgary, Canada, a Conclave of Michael was held. It was an event that brought together people who felt called by God to serve alongside Archangel Michael. I was a presenter at the Conclave offering: I AM the Sword of God. The message of that presentation had been given to me by the Archangel Michael during a profound experience at my home, Angel Heights.

In Commune with the Angels, I share the story of a wooden statue of Archangel Michael that I purchased while I was in Mexico and how important that statue became in my life.

The wooden statue of Michael served as a communication bridge between myself and the animal kingdom.

My cat, Baron Maurice, who was a beautiful pure white Persian, became ill. He was losing weight. He wasn’t eating. He didn’t seem to have an appetite. I took him to the vet and was told from the examination that it appeared the problem was tartar on his teeth, which was causing perhaps an irritation, resulting in his not wanting to eat. If it became worse the vet felt it would need to be addressed.

Baron Maurice was tested for feline leukemia and was found not to have this disease. But for me, the diagnosis of tartar build-up just didn’t seem to ring true. Every morning I would open up more than one can of cat food trying to find something that would please him. He was becoming more and more finicky. He just would not eat for several days at a time. He wanted to rest and sleep more than usual for a cat.

One day while I was in my office, Baron Maurice came in and seeing the statue of Archangel Michael placed up on the table, jumped from the floor to the level of the statue and literally knocked it to the ground with his paw.

Now here was a cat who had been acting listless and without energy, knocking a large wooden statue to the floor with one swipe of his paw. When the statue hit the floor one of Michael’s wings broke off.

As I looked in disbelief at what had happened my first thought was not of anger at Baron for breaking the statue but rather, “Oh dear Baron, what am I not seeing that you want me to see?” He wanted my attention and I knew in that instant that I had to take him to another vet and get a second opinion. I had to find out what was the problem. I took him immediately to another vet.

In testing his blood it was discovered that he had cats’ Aids. They told me that there was nothing that could be done for him and that the merciful thing to do would be to have him put to sleep. I went home with Baron and through prayer and meditation, gained from God the strength to fulfill my role in helping Baron find peace.

Shortly after Baron’s transition I was holding workshops in my home as well as seeing private clients. Now the only part of Michael’s statue that was moveable was a sword, a very small wooden sword that you could move from his hand. One day I happened to walk past the statue of Archangel Michael and realized that he no longer had his sword. I couldn’t imagine how the sword had disappeared. As I looked at Archangel Michael, now with one broken arm and his sword missing, I expressed an inner hope that in no way this was a reflection upon what was going on in my life. I remarked to myself that Archangel Michael needed a healing. And a healing is exactly what he got, but it would not occur for almost two years.

At one of my in-home gatherings a man sat in the circle and during the class he was whittling a small animal figurine out of a block of wood. As I saw that he was beginning to learn this craft, I commented that I had just been to a country craft show and had purchased a small wooden angel. I told him that he might want to look at this wooden angel as it might be something that he could follow as a pattern in making Christmas gifts.

This wooden angel was no more than four inches in height and was patterned after a simple design. I forgot about the earlier conversation until after the workshop was over. The man came up to me and said, “May I see your wooden angel?”

Well, the angels of healing must have cast a veil over my thinking because with his words I thought of the wooden statue of Archangel Michael. I said to the man, “Follow me.” I took him up the steps to my office and there I showed him the quite large and impressive figurine of Archangel Michael with broken wing and missing sword.

Even with these imperfections, Michael stood strong, crushing the demonic force that was beneath his feet. The man looked at me in total disbelief and said, “You think that I can whittle that?”

When hearing his words I realized my mistake. I laughed, “Oh, when you said you wanted to see my wooden angel I don’t know why, I just immediately thought of this statue of Michael.” He looked closer at the wing and said that he knew a master craftsman, in fact, the man who was teaching him to whittle in wood. He asked if I would be willing for him to take Michael and his broken wing to this craftsman to see if he could repair it for me. With angelic blessings I sent Michael on his way to be healed.

Six months would pass by before Michael would return to Angel Heights. He returned the third week of September 1993. I clearly remember the events that surrounded Michael’s return. I was in the midst of transition. I had a sense that I was going through a major transformation in my life. It was as if I was walking through a tunnel and the woman that had walked in through one end would not be the same woman who came out the other end. There wasn’t anything in particular that I could identify that had changed, just a feeling in general that I knew I was changing and transforming my life. I didn’t have a clue who the new me was going to be.

To assist me through this dark night of the soul, the angels inspired me to take everything off my altar and just leave one object on the altar that reflected what I aspired to be when I came out of the tunnel. I had found a wonderful clear crystal. It was very small in size but it had a point. When I looked at it I saw several things. It was a flame. It was the point of a sword. I especially liked this crystal because when you looked closer there was a smaller crystal affixed to its side and it was in the same shape.

So I was seeing a larger sword with a smaller sword inside of it – or a larger flame with a smaller flame by its side. I liked the inspirational message the crystal gave me. It was saying to me, “God’s will be done. Not my will, God, but Thy will.”

The crystal sat on my altar for about three weeks. As I passed by the altar or did prayer service at the altar I would pause and wonder about the new me…the new me that God was molding and creating, a new person more aligned to God’s will. In fact, I was feeling quite peaceful about the entire transition as I knew God was in the driver’s seat. I was “little sword/little flame”, going along for the ride.

I encourage those of you who are going through a similar time of change and uncertainty as to where you will be lead and what your new experiences will be, to place one object on your altar which reflects, for you, a quality that you hope to express in this vision that is being held by the Master Potter – God.

Well, the third week of September came around and that particular weekend I was initiated into an order where I was given a sword as part of the initiation ceremony. It was quite a large sword, I might add. When I came home I placed the sword on my altar. There now residing on my altar was the symbolic crystal and now the sword of a holy order.

A few days later I hosted an angelic gathering and the man who was a novice whittler returned. When he came to my house, unknown to me, he was bringing Archangel Michael with him, and so presented to me a mended Michael. I was elated over the healing that Michael received and I placed Michael on the altar. A trinity blessing was created – the statue of Michael, the sword of the holy order, and the crystal sword.

I remember sitting by my altar, viewing the objects of inspiration. My heart immediately went to the statue of Michael. Even though the master craftsman had healed Michael’s broken wing, Michael was still missing a sword.

I thought to myself that maybe I should go to a local toy store and search out a sword that would make Michael complete. At the very moment, as I was holding that thought, a presence came into the room. I knew immediately it was Archangel Michael’s energy and radiance. Michael spoke to me and said that it was not necessary for him to have the sword. The sword was now made manifest through the heart’s conviction of all who served God on earth. All the wonderful people who were responding with their life and with love were now the swords of God.

He then went on to say that as the Swords of God we are being called to Speak our God truth; Write our God truth; Own our God truth; Radiate our God truth and Dedicate our lives to God’s truth – to wield our S-W-O-R-D.

In November of 1993 Michael came forth into my life again with a communication. I will never forget the moment for I heard his words so crystal clear. When the presence of Michael appears I can only equate it to the energy of rolling thunder. It always caused me to stand at attention. Michael’s words were as follows: “The anti-christ is upon the earth now.” I shuddered hearing his words. I can remember thinking to myself, “Oh no! Michael is saying the anti-christ is here now.” Michael spoke a second time, “The anti-christ is upon the earth now and its name is…” Michael stopped just short of telling me the name.

In that split second my heart stopped. Did I want to hear this? Did I want to know the name of the anti-christ? I filled up with total fear. If I knew the anti-christ’s name, would the anti-christ come after me? I was almost paralyzed with fear until I got a grip on myself and said, “Wait a minute, with God I have nothing to fear.”

I asked Michael to reveal the name. Michael spoke to me a third time, “The anti-christ is upon the earth and its name is HOPELESSNESS.”

When something is right, when something is true, your whole body chimes in the key of you! I was chiming with God’s truth. The truth of Michael’s words rang through me as I realized that no one man or no one woman would bring about the destruction of this earth. That no one individual could take our power into his or her control but rather it would be up to us whether or not we would hand it over freely to hopelessness. The message was given to me to share in my lectures and in my writing as we are God’s messengers of hope eternal. When we give up on God, we give up on hope. This is why the Bible inspires us to take refuge in God, because with God all things are possible.

As you are reading my words, think of yourself as an earth angel of hope. You may find yourself in what appears to be a hopeless situation. It is never hopeless if you let God inspire you as the messenger of hope you are in this situation. It may be that someone in your family is trying to find a job. This person may have sent out resume after resume with no response. They may be at the point of giving up hope. You are there to uplift them and encourage them that they only need one job to open up for them. The same is true when people feel hopeless in finding a love relationship in their life. We sometimes allow statistics to set us off on a path of hopelessness. If you are looking for that someone special, just remember that it is just “one” someone special that you need to find.

The summer of 1993 I spoke at Kutztown University as part of Life Spectrum’s week-long conference. I presented a five-day workshop about the angelic kingdom. I worked with a class of 30 people every morning for about two hours. On Friday when I concluded my class I went around the room and said to my students, “Don’t confuse the messenger with the message. What I am saying is not to be confused by what my service is.

Think about it right now. What is it that you want to do in your own life? How do you want to incorporate the message of the angels and service to God in your own personal life? How do you want to use everything that has been shared this week with you by the angelic kingdom to make your life better and the world a better place? What can you do in service with the angels?”

I went around the room and one after another, each student indicated how he or she was going to work with the angelic kingdom. One woman in particular had a whole new outlook on her job. She works for a blood laboratory and has the role of seeing thousands of samples of blood pass before her every day as she processes them. She indicated that she was going to work with the angels in blessing each one of these samples. She was going to pray that the information that came from the blood work would assist them for their highest good and would provide a healing in their life. She had never seen her role through the eyes of empowerment, but the angels have given her that opportunity to see herself as a servant to God. She went away from the workshop realizing she was going to touch the lives of thousands and thousands of people and would be fulfilling a service to God in doing so. She was quite excited about going back to work on Monday morning.

Again, I continued around the room asking how the angels had inspired the class members to serve God in their lives. It was apparent that the angels had blessed each life and each person in turn was going to be a blessing to their family and their community.

One woman named Irina, who was visiting the United States from Moscow, stood up before the class and announced with conviction, “I’m going to take the hope of the angels to my people in Russia too. I am going to inspire them with hope in these challenging times of transition and I am planning to take Jayne to Russia, too, to bring her message to my people.” Needless to say I was as amazed as the rest of the class to hear these words. I was honored by her invitation. Irina was the editor of Urania Magazine, a beautiful spiritual publication that had been in existence for approximately three years and was published in both English and Russian.

Irina came up to me after the class and shared her enthusiasm over her service with the angels as an editor and in her life in Russia. She then invited me to participate as a workshop presenter at a conference to be held in November of 1993 in Moscow. Hearing her words brought back into my awareness an incident that had foretold this happening. It had been a few years prior and it occurred on Sunday, December 31st.

Every December 31st I participate in promoting and being a part of the World Healing Meditation. I wrote about this event and included the actual meditation in Commune With the Angels. On this particular December 31st, which fell on a Sunday, I came home from a group meditation and turned on one of my favorite television programs, Dr. Schuller’s Hour of Power. That particular Sunday was an extraordinary Sunday because Dr. Schuller had just returned from Russia. He was the first western hemisphere minister to be allowed by the Russian government to give a series of sermons over the Russian television network.

He had been instructed that he could not have a sermon that promoted Christianity, but rather, it had to be a general inspirational sermon to uplift the people and give them hope.

I remember that Armand Hammer had arranged for the Russian telecast to be broadcast to the people who were tuned into the Hour of Power in America. I was one of the people who witnessed this history-making sermon being given by Dr. Schuller. I stood in front of my television almost frozen, knowing that walls were being brought down by every word Dr. Schuller spoke.

We were transcending time zones. We were transcending past fears. We were transcending cold wars. The message of hope was being delivered to all of God’s people on the earth. He shared the words from Jeremiah 29:11, “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.”

As I stood riveted to the television set, I heard the angels say, “And you, too, will be a messenger of hope to the Russian people.” That was the first time I had ever thought about the possibility of my going to Russia. I knew in that moment that sometime in my life I would be visiting Russia as a courier of hope carrying with me God’s message.

That became a reality on Monday, November 1st, 1993 when I flew from Dulles International Airport to Heathrow in London, England and then flew onto Moscow. As part of a week-long conference I gave my workshop with the assistance of a translator and, of course, the assistance of the angels. The theme of the conference was ‘Sophia Returns’. Sophia is a term for the Wisdom of God.

While I was in Moscow the organizers of the conference took a group of us to a local flea market. At the flea market I came across a painting of Archangel Michael holding a sword that was not a sword of steel but rather of fire. I loved the symbolism of the fire because so often God is depicted in the Bible as fire. One such example is Moses’ experience with the burning bush.

The painting was of Michael cutting through all darkness with the power of God’s energy. The painting was on a piece of wood. I purchased the painting and after I bought it one of my hosts commented that I might have a problem getting the painting through customs, as Russia’s customs agency was funny about artwork leaving the country.

When it came time for me to leave Russia and I went through customs, I kept the painting of Michael out in full view. When the customs officer asked what I had to declare, I showed him Archangel Michael. He asked if it was old. I told him I didn’t know. I had bought it at a flea market in Moscow and had paid $50 for it. I was totally stunned by what he did next. He took out a pocketknife and cut the edge of the painting to see what was underneath.

I heard the angels inspire me with the words, “Detach! Detach! Detach!” I knew what I had to do. I said to the officer, “Look, I am really homesick and want to go home. If you need to keep the picture, keep it.” The officer ‘s attention was drawn to the eyes of Archangel Michael. He never looked at me again. With his eyes affixed upon Michael he handed back the painting and said, “You take it with you.” It was as if he couldn’t give it back to me fast enough. I have been so blessed in my worldwide travels, to be guided by the angels to awesome works of art depicting Archangel Michael: the wooden Michael I found in Mexico; the painting of Michael with a sword of fire in Russia.

At the beginning of blog, I shared with you the opportunity I had to speak at the Conclave of Michael. Many of us serve alongside Archangel Michael. Michael’s name in Hebrew means “He who is like God”. So if you have made changes in your life recently that are inspiring you to commit yourself to live your life in fulfillment of God’s vision of you, chances are you are hearing Michael’s calling.

Calgary, Canada has been written about as an established location of Michael’s energy on earth and when I saw the magnificent Canadian Rockies for the first time I commented, “Michael, this is so you.”

The week before I left for Calgary I felt Michael’s promptings to release my job of 20 plus years with an advertising agency. I heard Michael’s calling: “Come to me free of spirit. Come to me without your job.” I was panicked by the very thought of leaving my job. How would I survive? I was scared. I was a woman alone and paying the bills was totally up to me. I could feel the vibration of truth in Michael’s words but my fears were too great. I just couldn’t do it. Michael did not judge me. The angels never judge us. They merely stand back and let us “chew” on their wisdom. They are in our lives to inspire us, not to live our lives for us. The decision would be up to me.

While in Calgary on one particular morning during a lecture, the presence of Michael came to me again. I heard him speak as clearly as the speaker on the podium. Again he said to me, “It is time to be free in spirit. It is time to leave your work and take your place serving God with the company of angels.” My dear friend, Paula Kyle, who was seated next to me, felt something going on. She looked at me and said, “You just got a message, didn’t you?” I shared with her what Michael had said and she asked, “Did he give you a date to leave?” I replied, “We’re negotiating on that.”

There was really no negotiating except in my mind. I knew Michael was right. It was time and it was to be accomplished on May 5, 1994. On this date there would be a trinity or three-times blessing of the vibration of the five, which is the energy of change, expansion, growth, moving forward. I was inspired by the angels to look up the message for two times five, or the master number 55 because the energy of 55 was also included in May 5, 1994. Master numbers are numbers that emphasize the quality of the single number and raise its vibration to a higher level of intensity or consciousness because of its being doubled; therefore 55 is a higher consciousness of the number 5 and 555 is a higher consciousness of 55.

I used Numerology and Your Future for my research. It is written by Dusty Bunker, whom I consider to be a master numerologist. Dusty shares the possibilities that there are Masters who physically walk the earth or hover above it and each of these Masters guides watches over a different department of life. Under “55” Dusty wrote: “Master Agents 55 are assigned to the department of communications and investigation. They must separate the true from the false…The Ace of Swords in the Tarot would be a good card to reflect upon.”

Could Dusty be describing Archangel Michael as the Master Agent of 55 who is inspiring us to the Swordbearers of the Truth for God? Since that time I have come to know without a shadow of a doubt that Archangel Michael reveals himself thorough the numerical vibration of 555. Interestingly enough, years later I would catch a public radio broadcast with a scientist who spoke of the geometric symmetry in a flower known as the Michaelmas that has some sort of 555 configuration. His words were over my head but not over my heart.

When I came home and went back to work I was rationalizing as I sat at my desk at the advertising agency that what had happened maybe didn’t happen, but in my heart I knew it had. It was all so scary and rationalizing was an easier path than taking the plunge. As I played mind games with myself I questioned, “Was it really Michael?” Almost like a Memorex commercial. Was it real or was it Memorex? I didn’t have to play the game for long. A beautiful necklace of Austrian crystal beads that I was wearing around my neck just exploded and the beads flew in every direction of the office. I heard the angels lovingly whisper, “Jayne, you know it is time. You are out of here.”

Later that day when I got ready to leave the office and reached inside my purse for my keys, which were attached to a key chain with my name spelled out in big letters, I realized that my name had separated from the key chain. I knew I was being given signs and signals that it was time to separate myself from my old identity.

There was no doubt I had to resign. I knew it. The angels knew it. And my boss was going to know soon, too. I was certain about my leaving but was still dragging my feet on the date. Was 5-5-5 the date for sure? That evening the confirmation came through loud and clear. As I finished a telephone reading, I turned on television and saw the final scene of a program. A woman falsely accused of being a witch in Salem was sentenced by the judge. His words to her were, “You have been sentenced to die on May 5th.” I knew May 5, 1994 was the death of my old identity at the advertising agency.

The very next day I gave notice. My boss, though somewhat surprised stated, “I knew it was coming. I just didn’t know it would be this soon.” I shared with him that it was now because now was the time.

My boss asked me whom I was going to work for. I stated, “God and the company of angels.” After I had this conversation I went to the post office as I did each work morning to pick up the office mail and at the same time picked up my own personal mail. There in my mailbox was a large package. When I looked inside I saw copies of a newspaper article. I had forgotten that three weeks earlier a reporter had visited my home and had written an article about my service with the angels. I opened the article and saw the headline the reporter had chosen for her article: THE COMPANY OF ANGELS IS HER EMPLOYER. So it was official – in black and white print – I was working for God and the Company of Angels.

I share with you the following personal ceremony to rededicate your life to serving God and fulfilling your role as an earthly member of the legion of Archangel Michael.

Light a blue candle upon your altar. It is symbolic of the Blue Ray of Michael and represents the Will of God – the Power of God – the Protection of God.

Say these words or put the thought into your own personal expression:
Michael, I kneel before you in humility and dedicate my life to the fulfillment of God’s plan for earth. I have answered your call to serve alongside you glorifying and exalting God in all my choices, my actions, words and deeds. I AM THAT I AM

Mastering my life and its experiences.

Intuitively responding to life with my inner God-inspired wisdom.

Caring for all that I am given stewardship and guardianship over.

Healing and helping others to heal.

Abundantly embracing with joy my identity as a beloved child of God.

Energizing my life with love.

Living in the eternal NOW.

Stretch out your arm and visualize your arm as a Sword. It is not a sword that serves as a weapon. It is a sword that cuts you free from all that is less than God’s will in your life. Your whole body is activated with the Blue Ray vibration.

Hear Michael inspire you with the message: You are God’s swordbearers on earth. Speak your God truth. Write your God truth. Own your God truth as your identity. Radiate your God truth. Dedicate your life to your God truth. Remember, you can use the sword to cut yourself free from all the illusions in your life. Cut yourself free from any bonds to the past that prevents you from fully embracing your highest good. Cut yourself free from anything that is no longer useful or purposeful in your life. You are the Sword of God’s Truth – and the truth will set you free

Accept this dedication as fulfilled. May God be glorified and exalted by this ceremony and may you be blessed for you are truly a blessing on the earth.

I wish to share the following prayer sent to me by Shelley MacDonald of South Attleboro, Massachusetts. She shared with me that by saying this prayer she is given strength and courage, especially during the times when she feels anxious or discouraged. Shelley is the host of an inspirational radio program and truly is a member of the legion of Michael. She is a blessing of God’s light upon all those who meet her.
“Come, come, O Michael, dear.
By thy faith my way is clear.
Sword of blue
Flashing through
Give me faith and protection too!
Shine within me, all about me.
With Michael’s faith will none doubt me.
Guard my way, right now, today
Casting all my fears away.
Within, without I see your flame.
Go forth in God’s own name.

Love in abundance,
Jayne

BE AN ANGEL DAY

2011-08-20T07:52:00.000-07:00

History was made on Sunday, August 22, 1993 when thousands of people participated in a global heartlink celebrating the first annual BE AN ANGEL DAY.

Following the publication of Commune With The Angels in October, 1992 I was inspired by the angels with the message, “Do not rest on the laurels of a published book. There is additional service that needs to be done.” The message I received from the angels did not identify the service, but rather how I would begin to move towards recognizing what that service would be.

The angels must truly love reading mysteries because I have found that the assistance they give to me comes in the form of clues that they drop into my life. The clue I was given was to go to cemeteries to find and photograph angel monuments.

In the Baltimore area, near to where I live, I was able to find some very old cemeteries that had angel monuments from the 1890’s. Gifted stonecutters have sculpted incredible angelic beings from granite. As I looked into the faces of these granite angelic monuments it was as if they came to life.

I encourage you to seek out the cemeteries in your own community to see if there are similar angelic monuments waiting for you to discover them. The art seen in cemeteries is equal to the mastery found in museums.

I do not in any way consider myself a photographer, but the angels repeatedly encouraged me to go out and take photographs of these monuments. I would visit cemeteries and would be joyous over the discovery of angel monuments, which I photographed with black and white film. As I had the photographs developed I continued to inquire of Spirit, “What is this all about? What service are the angels guiding me to do that is mirrored to me in the granite figures?”

Often times we want to know what is the purpose of a particular activity in our life. Sometimes the answer is revealed to us in a holy instant. However, more times than not it is part of the journey and the activity quite simply is in preparation of the next step. So here I am in the midst of the activity of photographing angel monuments and wondering, “Why am I doing this? Where am I going with this?” And yet I felt compelled to do it.

One day I received from the angels this wonderful imagery. They said we should view ourselves as gold miners. So picture yourself having a little pan and everything that you do in your life is a sifting process. You are constantly sifting. Sometimes there’s nothing but the sifting of sand taking place and then one day you look down into your gold miner’s pan and you find a nugget right there shining back at you. The gold in the pan is that which has always been inside of you waiting to be discovered. It sometimes takes a lot of sifting and sometimes in our lives we almost throw our gold out with the dirt.

So the sifting in my life was tied in with my taking photographs of angel monuments. I am a person who loves to have focus in her life so I put myself on Angel Monument Alert – always on the lookout for angel monuments. When I would visit friends out of town, I would include them in the assignment and together we would find incredible granite monuments depicting angelic beings.

Now my curiosity grew as I sought information from the angels as to the purpose of the cemetery expeditions. In meditation I asked, “Am I going to create a book around the photographs…perhaps it will be called Angels of The Cemeteries…Guardians of The Grave. I even found a wonderful quote “Angels of the Tomb” which I thought would beautifully tie in with this book:

Immortal Hope dispels the gloom!
An angel sits beside the tomb.

This quote is by Sarah Flower Adams and comes from The Mourners Came At the Break of Day. The angels lovingly acknowledged my focus and commitment to the project and said quite simply, “Keep looking for angel monuments. Keep photographing what you find.” And so I continued my quest.

One day I visited Emmitsburg, Maryland where the National Shrine of Our Lady of Lourdes is located. I happened to be in Emmitsburg because Mt. St. Mary’s College is the site where every Father’s Day weekend the Mid-Atlantic Region of ARE holds its yearly retreat. The shrine is only a few miles from the college and includes a beautiful grotto in a wooded area.

At the grotto I usually spend time in prayer and meditation. It is truly one of the most peaceful places on earth and I feel blessed that my home is only 45 minutes from the grotto so I am now able to visit it often. On this particular visit I came out of the grotto and realized that there is a cemetery nearby. I hadn’t even noticed the cemetery as I drove into the grotto parking lot. And more importantly I hadn’t even noticed an incredible pair of angels that graced the entrance of the grotto, standing next to the cemetery. The figures were identical - each depicted a guardian angel with a precious child by its side. The child looks up to the angel and the angel points towards heaven.

I remember taking the photograph and feeling that as I snapped the shutter I had “captured” an angelic Kodak moment. When I picked up the film at the local Ritz camera store I realized I had the missing piece of the puzzle. With this picture – which would become a poster – I was inspired with the thought to establish BE AN ANGEL DAY.

What the angels were doing by having me go to cemeteries was preparing me. They were positioning me to be on the lookout for angel monuments. The right one was going to be right in front of me…eventually…I just had to keep looking…and keep snapping. The monument at the grotto in Emmitsburg is symbolic in that the child is the inner child in each and every one of us and standing near to us – always – is our Guardian Angel pointing out for us the direction we should look for support, answers and strength – God-ward.

I want to share with you that 2012 is the 600th celebration of Joan of Arc's birthday. I truly believe, that just like the angels, Joan of Arc is inspiring each of us to be God-ward. To stay on course with God. I love her inspirational messages: "I was born to do this" and "Forward with God!"

For those of you who live in or near to Baltimore, the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra is doing a special performance with the 1928 Joan of Arc silent movie being shown in the background. The performances will be in March, 2012.

Getting back to the angels' inspiration to establish BE AN ANGEL DAY, I was given the date for the annual celebration of BE AN ANGEL DAY – August twenty-second.

There is a divine message in the selection of the date. August is the eighth month of the year. In numerology eight is symbolic of success, achievement and fulfillment. If you take the figure eight and rest it horizontally it creates the lemiscate – the infinity symbol. The service we send out from our hearts is a blessing to not only others but comes back to bless us as well.

The 22nd day of August was chosen because 22 is a master vibration number. It brings the message of the importance of our serving as an apprentice architect on earth alongside of God, the ultimate Master Architect. We are building a bridge according to God’s will and plan. This is a bridge that supports the message of the Lord’s Prayer: Thy Will be done; Thy Kingdom come on earth as it is in heaven.

Even though we are inspired by God to be blessings to each other every day of our lives, the annual celebration of BE AN ANGEL DAY serves the purpose of raising mass consciousness on earth to the awareness that we, too, are here to serve God – just like the angels.

We, too, are ministering spirits to not only the human kingdom to which we belong but to all of God’s kingdoms. This celebration is a non-denominational, non-profit event. The whole purpose of the event is to encourage people to be like the angels – messengers of God’s love and peace.

While in meditation I was given a motto that was for the first celebration and for all future celebrations of BE AN ANGEL DAY: Be An Angel. Do one small act of service for someone. Be a blessing in someone’s life.

In preparation for the 1st Annual BE AN ANGEL DAY I distributed posters, flyers and bumper stickers around the world during my travels in promoting Commune With The Angels and being a spokesperson for the Angelic Kingdom. Following the celebration on August 22, 1993 I received letters from “earth angels” who shared how they had celebrated the event. I counted 22 countries from which people had written or called me and described their celebrations, quite an interesting coincidence with 22 being the celebration date in August.

The mayors of Baltimore, Maryland and Santa Cruz, California issued citywide proclamations, as did the Governor of Maryland.

Angel services and parties were held around the world. People sent me church bulletins, press releases and party invitations they had produced promoting the theme of doing one small act of service for someone. Angel food cake was served in abundance.

The Washington Post newspaper did a huge article in their Religion Section the day prior to the first annual BE AN ANGEL DAY. The Herald Standard in Uniontown, Pennsylvania included it in their Church Briefs Section on Friday, August 20th, with a feature article about the event published a month prior.

Saint Mary’s Parish of Rutherford, New Jersey promoted it in their community by announcing it in their church bulletin. Spiritual Frontiers Fellowship-Buffalo Chapter devoted their entire newsletter to angels and promoted BE AN ANGEL DAY. Lower Saucon United Church of Christ in Hellertown, Pennsylvania chose the theme of angels for their church service on August 22nd in conjunction with BE AN ANGEL DAY and began with the words: “Be still within and without and experience the angelic wonder of God’s love for you.”

Ann Marie Acacio, Minister of Unity Center for Positive Living in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, not only promoted the event in the center’s publication, but also spoke about the event at the Sunday service.

Michelle Stelmach of Dudley, Massachusetts sent me a photograph of how she got the Polar Corporation, a local bottling company that lists public service messages on their billboard, to promote BE AN ANGEL DAY, with a mention of it on that billboard two weeks prior to the event. Thousands of commuters passed this sign twice a day, five days a week, and saw the message.

Michelle’s meditation group got together on the afternoon of BE AN ANGEL DAY and had a group meditation. Michelle received a message that there would be a special sign from the angels showing that the angels appreciated all of our efforts in serving God as helpers to each other. Before the afternoon was over, the group saw a rainbow appear in the sky even though it had not rained.

A close friend of mine, Lucky Sweeny, who lived in Columbia, Maryland at that time, organized a picnic to benefit the homeless.

An Angel Day Celebration was held at the Westside Neighborhood Center in Santa Barbara, California with speakers, angel messages, arts and crafts and all of the proceeds went to support the Information Press, which spreads God’s light.

Jenny D’Angelo in Santa Cruz, California organized the California Angelic Alliance, which sponsored an afternoon event in which participants were encouraged to come and share in the angels’ love and radiant presence.

Sister Elizabeth of The Spiritual Center in Windsor, New York shared a story with me that clearly illustrates the message of BE AN ANGEL DAY. She and another sister were organizing a dinner for some 60 people on August 22nd. They had cleaned and cooked and were feeling a bit overwhelmed. Just as they started to ask themselves how on earth were they ever going to get everything that needed to be done accomplished, two people drove up and said, “It’s BE AN ANGEL DAY, and we’re here to be your angels. How can we help you? Show us what to do.” Sister Liz called me to exclaim, “It works!”

On August 22nd I presented a five-hour workshop at the Lily Dale Assembly, a beautiful spiritual community located an hour’s drive from Buffalo, New York. More than 60 people attended, some from as far away as Tulsa, Oklahoma. At the end of the day we wrote inspirational messages and affixed them to helium balloons and released them to be delivered by the angels to whoever needed to receive them. I was inspired to organize this activity because of a feature story I had seen on television prior to the 1st Annual BE AN ANGEL DAY.

It was the story of a young child whose father had been killed in an accident. The little girl’s birthday was approaching and this small child was asking her mother and grandmother if her Daddy in heaven would remember her…perhaps with a gift from heaven…as her Daddy had never forgotten her on her birthday. The adults didn’t know how to respond to her question but were inspired to take the little girl to the father’s gravesite and have her write a note to her Daddy and affix it to a helium balloon. The little girl sent her love note to her Daddy via the helium balloon and watched it head for heaven.

There is no doubt in my mind that the balloon’s flight was directed by God’s angels. The balloon floated for thousands of miles and came down by a lake where a man was taking a walk. The man read the note and he wondered how his own children, who were very close in age to this little girl, would be impacted by his death. He went home and shared the note with his family and they were inspired to make this birthday special for this little girl. They agreed that the note had been given to them for a reason. They contacted the little girl and her family and stated that since there were no stores in heaven, the little girl’s Daddy had guided the balloon to them and they had done the birthday shopping on his behalf. Their plans were to ship the presents to the girl; however, when the media learned of this incredible story of love, the media paid for the families to meet in person.

Kenneth J. Foreman shared the following story in the Presbyterian Outlook dated May 9,1960. “In grandfather’s time there used to be a song taught to little children:

I want to be an angel
And with the angels stand;
A crown of gold upon my head
And a harp within my hand.”

Kenneth invited readers of his article to imagine standing at heaven’s gate with the officer of the day, who is asking why you want to get in. “You might come up with the words of this song ‘I Want To Be An Angel.’ And then you might have to answer one more question: What experience have you had?”

How can we be like God’s angels? One of the ways is to have the attitude that everything we do we are doing for God and to God. The attitude with which we approach the world determines the world that we are in fact going to see and experience in our own lives.

By practicing simple kindnesses towards each other we are acting as messengers of love. No matter what happens to us in our lives, the angels encourage us to promote kindness, gentleness, tenderness, and compassion. Jesus taught us by example through his kindness to the poor and to the sick, the children, the prostitutes, the tax collectors that when you see with eyes of kindness there is no such thing as selective vision.

I encourage people that as BE AN ANGEL DAY approaches each year to look around their community with “Angel Eyes” – eyes filled with God’s Light - to see where service is needed and know that God has sent you.

I recently received a letter from Kena Leek, Publicist with The Random Acts of Kindness Foundation. She shared that after learning about BE AN ANGEL DAY, we was inspired to write because the Foundation and BE AN ANGEL DAY share the same values. She proposed the possibility of the two activities find ways to join forces and work together for a kinder atmosphere and more participation in BE AN ANGEL DAY. I find it so uplifting that the promotion of the God ideals of kindness and service are bringing organizations together. Her letter conveys the message of looking for ways that we could join together to be an even larger blessing to more people.

There’s a precious poem entitled ONLY SEEDS SOLD HERE whose author is unknown. It goes as follows:

In a dream I went into a shop
Behind the counter was an angel.
I asked: what do you sell here?
Everything you want, said the Angel.
Oh, I said. Is that so?
Then I would like peace on earth,
No more oppression, no more hunger,
A home for all fugitives…
Wait a minute, said the Angel,
You have misunderstood me:
We do not sell fruits here,
Only seeds….

The Angels provide us with God’s “seeds” of inspiration. I was provided the seed for BE AN ANGEL DAY. I invite you to take this opportunity to still yourself and envision yourself entering a storefront. There is an angel behind the counter. The angel smiles at you and says, “Yes! It is planting time and the package of Godseeds designated for you are right here.” You recognize that, just as for all the Johnny Appleseeds who have gone before you, it is your turn to plant seeds here on earth so that trees of life may grow abundantly. You will plant the seeds, and watch over them as they grow into the fulfillment of the dreams and visions we have for making this world a better place for all of God’s Kingdoms. You rush to open the package of Godseeds and are surprised that on every little seed your name is written. You realize that every word you speak, every action you take – all the expressions of you are seeds of energy.

A book I have read and re-read is Jean Giono’s The Man Who Planted Trees. Jean Giono’s story is a modern-day parable. I love it so much I even purchased an audio book version. It takes place in France in the 20th century and is a story of a man who replants desolate areas with trees…one acorn at a time. It’s inspirational message reminds us not to underestimate the difference to the planet we can each make.

We are evolving into a community of angels – heavenly and earthly angels existing together and serving God. I honor and acknowledge each of you for your willingness to participate as fully conscious beings. Just imagine yourself as a human computer and you have clicked the “OK,” indicating to the Divine Power that it is OK for you to experience all the changes, all the energy, and all the acceleration at 100% capacity necessary for growth. And in agreeing to do this, you have joined the divine ranks of those whom angels refer to as Grace Seeds.

St. Thomas Aquinas in writing Summa Theological in 1271 described grace as “nothing else but a certain beginning of glory in us.” Even in these times of uncertainty, know with certainty that you are beginning or seeding glory to God. You have planted yourself here on earth to bloom and to “seed” others. Flowers are identified by a genus. Your genus is known as AMAZING GRACE.

As we look around us at all the things on the planet that reflect people’s fears, pain and separation from God, we may sometimes question the reality in believing it is possible for us to evolve into Super Beings…beings that fulfill Jesus’ message, “All this and more you shall do.”

It begins with a seed identity – the consciousness and acceptance of our very beings as seeds of grace. You may be experiencing dirt in every direction you look and even be questioning if you will ever see daylight. None of this changes your identity. You are seeds of the divine.

What does it mean to be Grace Seeds? The word “grace” originates from the Latin “gratia” or favor. A favor is a helpful act or service. As seeds of grace we manifest through our individual selves God’s light, love, peace and inspiration.
As we celebrate BE AN ANGEL DAY and it’s motto: Be An Angel, I encourage you to do one small act of service for someone. Be a blessing (grace seed) to someone. A grace seed is one who serves and in doing so anchors and plants on earth God’s helpfulness made manifest in human form. I recently saw a wonderful quote on a greeting card: “How many angels are there? One that transforms your life is enough.” You may be that one angel in someone’s life. Plant yourself in life!
How can we align ourselves to the energies and vibration of grace in order to be accepting of our identities as Grace Seeds? Using the letters in the word itself I would like to offer these helpful suggestions on how to embrace our identity as grace seeds and fill our every moment with Grace.

G R A C E

G = Grateful moments. Whenever I speak to an audience I encourage audience members to take time to have an attitude of gratitude. Give thanks for all the blessings in your life. Grace is a term for a small prayer or blessing before a meal. I say grace whenever I push my shopping cart down the aisle of a grocery store. We are so blessed with abundance in our country.

People often ask me, “What can I do to be closer to my Guardian Angel?” Your angel is never closer to you than when you are kneeling in prayer giving thanks to God for all the blessings in your life.

If we could shrink the earth’s population to a village of 100 people, keeping the existing human ratios the same, 80 would live in substandard housing; 70 would be unable to read; 50 would suffer malnutrition. If you have food in your refrigerator; clothes to wear; a place to sleep you are richer than 75% of the world.
I also want to encourage readers to consider the vibration of “grace” in the word gratuity. People sometimes get all tied up in determining the amount of money for tipping – is it 15% or 20%. I encourage you to consider this as a solution: Give more than is expected of you. This is the way the divine operates in our lives. God gives us so much more than we ever expected and how blessed we are because of God’s infinite love.

R = Receptive moments. Live your life open to receiving all the blessings of grace that God bestows upon us each and every moment. These are truly moments of grace we are receiving and as they form hours and days, weeks and years we are standing witness to what the angels have identified as The Grace Age. I am reminded of a time when I first was given that term by the Angels to help me with an inspiration. I needed a term to replace “NEW AGE” for there needed to be a healing around this terminology to describe this time period on earth. Whenever I was a guest on a radio program, it never failed that someone would call in and attempt to label me “NEW AGE”.

This labeling even occurred when I called an angel store located in Pennsylvania, about a half hour from my home. Several friends spoke of the store to me and mentioned that every other week there was a gathering where people shared angel stories. My friends encouraged me to call the store and offer my service in speaking as they felt I would be a blessing to the gather. I followed up on their suggestion and when I spoke to the storeowner I offered at no charge to come and be a part of their wonderful inspirational gathering. The woman said to me, “We don’t want you in our store. You’re New Age.”

I asked the Angels, “Since everything began as a God-thought, and nothing is truly ‘new’, how am I to describe this Age?” I asked for a term that I could use and this is the angelic inspiration I received: “Call it THE GRACE AGE for it will only be by the grace of God that you get through it.”

A = Amiable Moments. I would like to divide “amiable” into three words: Am I Able? Am I Able to see myself as God sees me - full of infinite potential and possibilities. Additionally, amiable means being friendly. Through grace we befriend both ourselves and act as a friend to others. Life is meant to be a user-friendly experience. I’ve recently noticed that in an attempt to heal road rage, some states are posting signs encouraging people to be Driver Friendly to each other.

C = Compassionate Moments. Compassion inspires us to commune or unite with our passion energy.

There is a beautiful Sanskrit blessing that I say so often that friends of mine got together and bought me a tee-shirt with this message imprinted: SAT CHIT ANANADA. Translated it means “Be the fullness of your bliss or joy.” Compassion originates from the Latin words “Com” meaning together and “Pati” meaning to feel.

In being compassionate we give ourselves the experience of feeling together – together with the angelic heavenly host, with God, with Jesus, with the sacred inside of each and everyone of us. If you have moments in your life when you feel far from being “together”, allow yourself to think about what experiences you have had in your life that filled you with joy. What gave you bliss? Make time and devote energy to experiencing your bliss in this life. And make time for togetherness. Spend time together with God…together with nature…together with loved ones.

I have grown to love the word TOGETHER. I feel so blessed to be serving God together with the angels. I feel so blessed to have the togetherness of my sweet husband, Charles Feldman and the togetherness of family and friends and our two Jack Russells, Pinky and Riot. It is a healing word that when used can make miracles happen. When you find yourself involved in a disagreement with someone, try the healing technique of asking, “What can we do together to come to a peaceful resolution of this problem?” Together is a word that heals like a pair of angels’ wings as it makes people feel included.

In the Book of Revelation, the angel that appears to John admonishes him when John attempts to bow down before the angel. The Angel redirects John’s worship to God, whom together we glorify and exalt as the angels do.

E = Esthetic Moments. Take time to appreciate beauty in art and nature. Every child deserves to experience the arts. Food will sustain us as humans yet it is art that inspires us to be Divine. When you make time to appreciate art, whether it is expressed as music, dance, poetry, or literature, you make time to appreciate a part of you that is the “muse” or the spirit of beauty and inspiration. You take time to experience the creator essence of yourself. And when you commune with the creator inside of you there is a potential for you to be inspired to create something beautiful in your own life that will be an inspiration to others who witness or are touched by your creativity. We are all artists and the years of our lives are canvases on which we create our realities with words, actions and deeds.

This year - Monday, August 22nd, 2011 will be the 19th celebration of BE AN ANGEL DAY. May you be inspired to be do one small act of service for someone and be a blessing in someone's life.

Love in abundance,
Jayne

LIFE IS A D-BOX RIDE

2011-06-14T15:42:00.001-07:00

Dear Angelic Blog Buddies:

My husband, Chuck, and I have discovered a new way to experience movies showing at movie theaters. It is called: D-Box. At this time,I believe there are no theaters in Maryland that have D-Box. There are only two in Pennsylvania and one of them is in Hanover, PA which is about 30 minutes from our home. Hanover, Pennsylvania is my birth city.

When you purchase a D-Box ticket, you are assigned a seat that is connected to the action on the big screen. You have a dial on your chair that allows you to choose mild to extreme motion for your seat.

For example, for Pirates of the Caribbean, when the ship on the screen rocks, your seat rocks. For the movie Super 8, whenever there's an explosion, you have the sensation of being rocked by the explosion.

D-Box is a motion simulation system that gives you a motion feedback experience so that you feel you are part of the action on the screen.

I'm sharing this with you, because it's like being on an amusement park ride at the movies. Chuck and I are like a pair of kids and find ourselves laughing at our personal responses to motions of the chair. Poor Chuck. Whenever something scares me, I grab him.

So with D-Box, we are experiencing the movie, and at the same time experiencing our personal reaction to the motion of the chair. It's an absolute hoot.

Many of you know that I have an Aquarius Sun and also Aquarius Rising. So I love anything new in technology. Sitting in my D-Box seat, waiting for the chair to be "turned on" I am very conscious that I was born to be part of all of this. Waiting for the D-Box to start, is for me one of those "being at the right place at the right time" moments.

All of us are experiencing so many different things in so many different ways. With all the changes are taking place, it's very easy to feel overwhelmed at time by the new energies.

THINKS SPIRALS

2011-05-25T08:10:00.000-07:00

Think spiral. Think spirals. Think spirals.

You've heard about things that go viral on the internet. Someone records something in their home. They post the recording on You Tube and it goes viral. It goes around the world. The person becomes an instant star.

I am here to give you the angelic inspiration: We are going spiral.

We are becoming instant stars radiating starlight. This isn't reality tv. This is divine reality consciousness. In a holy instant you are beaming with your inner star consciousness, vibration, energy and light.

I also encourage you to simply Google:

spirals of nature -

and click and see full pages of images of spirals in nature. Think of spirals. Look at spirals. Become conscious of spirals. Spirals serve as activation energies of divine blessings of evolution. Upward, upward, upward.

If you are at your computer and can take a short break and click on images of spirals. Allow yourself to have the images mirror back to you the energy you are embodying. Look for spirals in your life.

Be open to the spiraling energies in your own life. Just think about the shape of the new "going green" lightbulbs. Seashells, galaxies. Spirals in nature. The spiraling pattern of sunflowers.The spiral is the most dominant shape found in nature. It can be seen in everything from the tiny form of DNA molecules and path of subatomic particles to the cosmic form of galaxies and the paths of planets around the stars.

THINK SPIRAL ENERGY.

In your meditation, visualize a golden spiral beneath your feet moving up your entire body and out your crown chakra. Spiraling energies of light.

We are all experiencing the witnessing of hundreds of spiraling tornadoes. Spiraling vibrations moving across the earth. Storm chasers are capturing video footage of the huge spirals created by Mother Nature. We are seeing spiraling tornadoes on a daily - even hourly basis.

Spiral: Geom. Any plane curve formed by a pointed that moves around a fixed center and continually increases or decreases its distance from it. From the Latin: spira - spire - to coil.

Spirituality is spira-uality. The sacred path is the spiral path.

We are experiencing a spiraling upward energy surge within ourselves. We are lifting ourselves up and through blockages, illusions, old patterns to embrace our spiral essence and energy.

We are walking, talking, breathing energy spirals.

We are also experiencing the spiral energy in the news reporting of raising costs, i.e. spiraling gas prices.

Spirals, spirals and more spirals.

We are increasing our consciousness of our infinite identity; divine qualities; enlightenment.

"The human mind always makes progress, but it is a progress in spirals." - Madame de Stael

"The whole universe is based on rhythms. Everything happens in circles, spirals." - John Hartford

"Progress has not followed a straight line, but a spiral with rhythms of progress and retrogression of evolution and dissolution." - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

"For humanity we walk ever in spirals." - R. Scott Bakker

A spiral is a symbol of growth, devlopment and evolution.

We are all experiencing new energy within ourselves. Does it make you restless, nervous, anxious, unsettled - a little nutso? Yes. It's a new energy and we are getting acquainted to its vibration.

The comments I hear most often from people are: I feel overwhelmed. I feel exhausted.

If we can look to our past for a similar experience of new energy, it would be to look to December 2, 1942 when we created the first self-sustaining nuclear fission reaction. The splitting of the atom had occurred prior to this. One of the key terms the divine is emphasizing is "self-sustaining".

Recently I read an article by a scientist who made the comment on how things would have been different following the nuclear fission reaction breakthrough if at the exact same time there wasn't the pure evil of Hitler on the planet. The scientist raised the question, How different would things have been if the global science community had been able to unite and focus on utilizing the atomic discoveries for the advancement of humanity rather than for fighting evil?

Just as the nuclear fission breakthrough triggered an awareness of consciousness of the responsibility to new energies and the potentialities of the new energy, we are guardians to the new energies awakening within each of us. We are becoming conscious of the infinite potential of the new energies.

Embrace with love the consciousness of your inner starlight.

Angelic Blessings of Spiral Consciousness,
Love, Jayne

BE THE BEHOLDER

2011-03-31T09:11:00.000-07:00

Dear Angelic Blog Buddies:

In the Bible in Luke 2:10 we experience the word "behold" in divine dialogue from the angelic kingdom, when the angel says to the shepherds,

“Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people."

Just this week the Preakness promoters here in Baltimore released a poster with the headline that included the word BEHOLD. You don't see or hear the word BEHOLD very often, i.e. in the language of television commercials, etc.

The word BEHOLD has been crossing my path in a number of different ways over the past week. Whenever this happens, I know that spirit is communicating wisdom through being still and reflecting upon the word and its blessing for my life and sharing my inspirations with you in my blog.

It's funny, when I googled the word BEHOLD, one of the sites I was given referenced the furniture polish BEHOLD.

The definition of the word behold is to look at or observe.

I love the quotation, "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder."

If we take the word apart and create two separate words we have the simple message: BE HOLD.

BE means: To have existence, truth or actuality

HOLD means: To take and keep close

Consider that the word BEHOLD reminds us to keep sacred or take close to ourselves the actuality, truth, existence of BEing. No matter what is going on around you, be holding onto your beingness. Hold the beingness.

Shakespeare gave us the inspiration: "To be or not to be, that is the question."

Are we living each moment with a consciousness that we are human beings who are gifted with a life filled with personally experiencing what it means to be?

We are here because God held the thought of our coming into being. God perceived us and conceived us as His divine creations. I love the Bible verse, "Imitate God as the child of light you are."

As I am writing my blog, I am remembering a poem that tells the story of the greeting message that the angels' give to each newborn baby upon its arrival. As the baby comes forth from the mother's womb, the angels' whisper one single word: BE.

Every day we have the opportunity to be...BEHOLDERS.

I asked the Library Angels to help with me this blog in offering a spiritual tool that would bless each and every one of you in understanding the holy gift and assignment we are each given in being BEHOLDERS.

The Library Angels never let me down and I was guided to pull off the bookshelf Joel S. Goldsmith's book The Art of Spiritual Healing in which he writes about embodying the beholder consciousness. Don't you just love it when you discover books you didn't even know you had? And even more amazing and wonderful is how the book contains information on the wisdom that spirit is emphasizing in our lives at this particular moment in time.

The copyright in the copy of the book I have is 1959. I was 8 years old when this book was published. Somehow the angels orchestrated it to be on my bookshelf when I needed it.

Joel shares that true prayer comes to completeness and perfection when there is no desire. It comes to full bloom in feeling communion when all sense of desire for anything has been laid aside. It is just as if it were Christmas morning and we have received all of our gifts. All of our wishes have been granted. Now all that remains is an all-encompassing feeling of, "Thank you."

When we lift our consciousness to this awareness of "Thank you, God," then comes the fullness and completeness of communion with God. We are resting, like a baby rests in its mother's arms. We have no desires, no wants, no needs. We rest in the knowingness that to BEHOLD is to allow ourselves to BE HELD in the arms of God.

Joel writes in his book, "We do not strive for supply. We behold supply as it unfolds infinitely from the one Source."

Additionally he offers this beautiful prayer which I share with you as a glorious spiritual blessing:

"The Father knoweth my needs, and I stand here as a beholder, not praying for opportunity tomorrow, but sitting quietly in this atmosphere of the Soul watching my opportunity come to me. Just as the rivers flow to the sea, their activity governed by some law of God because it is the normal and natural thing for a river to do - to flow to the sea to feed the vast oceans of our earth - so it is a normal and natural thing that God's grace flow to me. It has been damed up by desire, fear, doubt, and by my believing that God was something separate and apart from my being and was not aware of my needs. Now, I release all concern and stand as beholder of God's infinite goodness."

Isn't Joel's prayer beautiful? I love the inspiration his prayer gives to me. I will sit quietly in the atmosphere of the Soul...and watch and BEHOLD opportunity and infinite goodness coming to me.

Angelic Blessings of
being a BEHOLDER and
BEING HELD by
God's Infinite Goodness,

Love, Jayne

COCOA BLESSINGS

2011-03-11T06:24:00.001-08:00

Dear Angelic Blog Buddies:

For 19 years, I had the divine blessing of sharing my life with a sweet little Jack Russell dog named Benny. I gave him the name Benny, short for Benediction, because this dear little dog was truly a blessing sent to me by God; a heaven sent blessing.

Well, some of you may know that on January 4, 2010 my dear little Benny dog died. This year, days before January 4th, I found myself really missing Benny and thinking about him. After he died I had a work of art created from his ashes by a company called Art from Ashes. It's a beautiful little heart, which is so perfect because Benny will always have a special place in my own heart.

Now I am sharing this blog because something quite amazing occurred. Before I share this occurrence with you, I need to give you a little more background information.

During the end years of his life, Benny suffered from doggie alzheimer. He would at times walk in circles. When he went outside, he wouldn't make the connection of what he was to do outside; and so he would go outside and come inside and go to the bathroom. We turned our kitchen into his little bedroom with lots of cozy bedding for him; food and water. And since we were in the kitchen alot, he was always around us. It was our focus to keep Benny as happy and comfortable as possible.

Now as I mentioned above, even though we had a big backyard and would take him outside, he often times would just go to the bathroom in the kitchen. Sometimes at night, he would have such an accident in the kitchen, and the aroma would awaken me and I would come downstairs to find that Benny had walked in circles and had poo-poo all over himself and all over the kitchen floor.

My husband and I became very proficient at cleaning Benny and the kitchen floor. Believe me, I tried doggie diapers and that only upset Benny as he didn't like them and was confused by them. I don't want to dwell on the description, but trust me it was amazing how a little dog could make such a huge mess. Because of his continous movement he would cover the entire kitchen floor. Benny became an artist and the floor was his palette.

Now back to this year - 2011. As I shared, I was thinking of my little Benny and sending him love in heaven. On January 4th 2011, I also shared with Chuck my thoughts about Benny and reminding Chuck that this was the day that he died a year ago.

Chuck and I went out in the afternoon of January 4th. When we go out, we now leave Riot, our 15 year female Jack Russell in the kitchen; and Pinky the 5 year old is upstairs.

Chuck went into the kitchen ahead of me when we returned home. I heard him say, "You've got to come in here and see this; you are not going to believe it."

Now let me preface this by saying that Riot is a Diva Dog. She would never, ever think of making a mess. Nor would she destroy or tear up anything. She is much too prim and proper for such behavior.

In our kitchen we have a wooden cart with two shelves. On the top shelf was a box of instant cocoa packages. Riot (or Benny in spirit) had gotten into the box of cocoa packages; ripped open all individual packages of cocoa and shook the cocoa from inside the individual packages all over the entire kitchen floor. I am sure you are ahead of me already with the vision I am creating with my words. The kitchen floor was covered with chocolate brown cocoa. Wall to wall cocoa.

Chuck and I stood and looked at the kitchen floor in total amazement. Chuck looked at me and said, "I am pretty certain Benny had something to do with this." I agreed. I looked up to heaven and said, "Thanks, Benny. You knew I needed to hear from you."

Riot sat very daintily in her little doggie bed with absolutely no cocoa on her paws. True, she could have easily licked any cocoa off; but she had that look, "Don't blame me; I had nothing to do with this."

Chuck and I both laughed as we cleaned the kitchen up that this cleanup was a lot easier to clean than previous Benny cleanups.

I hope this sharing warms your heart and reminds you of how God knows the feelings of our hearts. May you have a beautiful day filled with heaven sent blessings.

Love and Cocoa Blessings,
Jayne

13 GALACTIC TONES OF CREATION

2011-02-26T07:47:00.000-08:00

Dear Angelic Blog Buddies:

I was inspired by the angels to share information with you about the 13 Galactic Tones of Creation. I am preparing to do an Angels and Crystal Skulls seminar next Sunday, March 6, 2011 from 1 to 4 PM at Winfield Holistic Center and I will be sharing information on the 13 Ancient Crystal Skulls as well as sharing the energies of my own personal collection of crystal skulls.

The skulls are vibrational messengers of the 13 Galactic Tones of Creation. The skulls are divine destiny couriers. They radiate to us the vibrational message that it is our destiny to evolve into oneness with God's light. If you are interested in participating in this class, simply email me at earthangel4peace@aol.com and I will send you the class flyer.

Additionally, we are hosting Max the Crystal Skull here at our home in Upperco, Maryland - April 15/16/17, 2011. If you are interested in having a private appointment time with Max, write my husband, Chuck Feldman at chuck500@yahoo.com and Chuck will send you the flyer. Chuck handles all registrations for Max the Crystal Skull's appearance.

The 13 tones originate from Mayan astrology. I am sharing the following information which can be found at 13moon.com and I recommend reading the section FAQ at this website. A great website.

"Where the number 12 represents the circle, 13 is the enduring, continuing spiral. Whereas the number 12 represents self-perpetuating stasis, or the highest complexification of material form, the number 13 represents circulation, the power of transcendence and going beyond. 13 signifies the cosmic definition of Time itself as the force of universal movement. Even in our bodies, it is our 13 joints ( 2 ankles, 2 knees, 2 hips, 2 wrists, 2 elbows, 2 shoulders, and 1 neck) which give us the power of physical movement.

Turned taboo due to its associations with the 13 moons and the 13 cycles of a woman's annual fertility cycle, the number 13 became thought of as unlucky, even associated with witchcraft and sorcery. 13 actually represents interconnectedness, the presence which unifies life's movements as one magical orchestra. Thirteen scales on a turtle's back - 13 moons in motion reflect the 13 tones of creation - the galaxy's movement spiraling into biological life-forms."

There are 12 notes in an octave. The 13th note represents the first note of the next octave. We are embracing our destiny of becoming/embodying/being the light sound of the next octave of evolution. The God Tone.

The 13 tones are a divine template that support our unfoldment into the consciousness that we are occupying physical bodies, i.e. matter; however, simultaneously we are light beings that are being aware of the infinite gifts God has given to us. One of these gifts is the ability to tune our inner radio waves to God's station and be the fullness of our light body. We are becoming fully conscious of our universal resonanting divine identities.

The galactic tones are divine pulsations that support our becoming conscious of our divine inner frequency and oneness with God's infinite radio station.

As an angelic messenger, I have been encouraging everyone to support your evolving vibration with chants, toning, sound healing, etc. It's all about harmonizing with divine vibrations. I love the Beach Boys' lyrics: "I'm picking up good vibrations."

I am also encouraging people to checkout the website earthing.com and consider purchasing an earthing mat that attunes you the good vibrations of the earth.

For this blog I am going to give you the 13 Galactic Tones and to give you a beginning relationship with them, I encourage you to look at the day you were born. If you were born on the first (1) through thirteenth (13) day of the month, read the information for that Galactic Tone. If you were born the 14th day through 31st day, simply reduce your date to a one digit number and read that information.

I fully understand that this is not the way the Galactic Tones are determined by the Maya, and for this reason I am also offering a Maya Codex Reading that will give you your own Maya Codex created for you by Maya in Mexico. The flyer will be going out to everyone on our email mailing list. If you want to be on my mailing list, just go to earthangel4peace.com - and signup on the home page.

I have been inspired by the angels to encourage everyone to first look at your birthdate and connect with the 13 Galactic Tones as I outlined above. This is simply to introduce your energy and consciousness to the Tones. It's a starting point. The way to begin is to begin.

The 13 Galactic Tones are messengers of divine energy. The Tones align us with God's Watch. We are moving from a consciousness of time as money (a human manipulation of time consciousness) to God Time. We have always been on God's Watch, i.e. Natural Time; however, we as a race have gone a little unconscious about this reality and we've made ourselves insane with our thinking about time, i.e. rushed for time, running out of time, etc. The angels have always said to me whenever I have gotten nutso about running out of time for a project: "Align with infinite time; not finite time."

13 GALACTIC TONES

1 - Magnetic - Awakening/Identifying/New Beginnings/Core Vibration/Unity

The Magnetic Tone of Purpose. This tone begins the 13 steps of the wavespell, and attracts the purpose for the new time interval.

Creative Power: unify
Function: purpose
Action: attract

2 - Lunar - Balancing/stablizing polarities/Cooperation/Relationship Duality

The Lunar Tone of Challenge. The Lunar Tone. Tone number 2 allows us to see the polar opposite of our purpose, and to see what obstacles are to be overcome in order to achieve the purpose. In this way, stability and balance come into play.

Creative Power: polarize
Function: challenge
Action: stabilize

3 - Electric - Integrating/Movement/Change/Bonding

The Electric Tone of Service. The third tone of the wavespell is bonding. It moves the space towards three dimensions, as a triangle is first formed. Now that the purpose and challenge have been identified, it’s time to activate service.

Creative Power: activate
Function: service
Action: bond

4 - Self-existing - Defining/Ordering/Natural cycle/Meaningful Alignment

The Self-existing Tone of Form. 4 makes 3-dimensional structure through 4 corners of a tetrahedron. 2-dimensionally we see this as a square. This form is our measuring point for moving through dimensions, whether it be 2nd, 3rd, 4th or beyond. With this tone we define our purpose, as it completes the first harmonic (series of 4 tones) of the wavespell.

Creative Power: define
Function: form
Action: measure

5 - Overtone - Centering/Radiating/Foundation/Simplicity/Core Purpose

The Overtone Tone of Radiance. The 5th tone is the first corner of the wavespell, as the tetrahedronal pulsar that includes the 4 like colors of the wavespell begins to show its form. There is a blinking radiance transmitted that empowers us to command our purpose in its next direction.

Creative Power: empower
Function: radiance
Action: command

6 - Rhythmic - Balancing/Responding/Organic Balance/Receptivity/Roots in Many Dimensions

The Rhythmic Tone of Equality. 6 directions builds a cube and is a directional creation of form before the 13 tone cycle begins to unwind. It is the equality of 1 bar and 1 dot.

Creative Power: organize
Function: equality
Action: balance

7 - Resonant - Inspiring/Attuning/Mystical Alignment/Mystical Power/Self Acceptance

The Resonant Tone of Attunement. 7. This tone is the center of the sequence of 13, holding the 2 cubes in balance. It is a perfect alignment of the heart with the sky and the earth.

Creative Power: channel
Function: attunement
Action: inspire

8 - Galactic/Singing - Harmonizing/Empowering/Path of One Heart

The Galactic Tone of Integrity. After the center is reached at the 7th tone, the purpose begins to materialize, first on the galactic level, which is the base of our truth and our true selves.

Creative Power: harmonize
Function: integrity
Action: model

9 - Solar - Completing/Formalizing/Expansion/Mastery/Fulfillment/Action Set in Motion

The Solar Tone of Intention. Beginning with Galactic, the next pitch becomes Solar as the intention makes its way towards planetary matter.

Creative Power: pulse
Function: intention
Action: realize

10 - Planetary - Producing/Perfect Manifestation/Motivation/True Identity/Intention

The Planetary Tone of Manifestation. At ten, the Wavespell sequence matches a half breath of the 20 tribes sequence. It is 2 limbs, or 10 fingers/toes. Thus matter is manifested symbolic of the gravitational limits of the sun’s pull.

Creative Power: perfect
Function: manifestation
Action: produce

11 - Spectral - Releasing/Changing/Clearing/Disintegration/Dissolve/Letting Go/Stripping Away

The Spectral Tone of Liberation. As the idea goes through the galactic-solar-planetary phases, the gravitational field is unified and the intention is liberated, as in photosynthesis, or firing neurons.

Creative Power: dissolve
Function: liberation
Action: release

12 - Crystal - Cooperating, Sharing, Framework of Connectedness/Universalize

The Crystal Tone of Cooperation. As we work out our purpose for a wavespell, the crystal tone brings all the parts together, to finally accomplish and output the task at hand. We come together with each of our personal journeys, putting the pieces together to finish what we started, and lay out the plan for next wavespell.

Creative Power: dedicate
Function: cooperation
Action: universalize

13 - Cosmic - Transcending/Opening to/Limitless New Openings/Unexpected and Radical Change

The Cosmic Tone of Presence. After the wavespell’s purpose has been crystallized, the plus-one factor kicks in and brings the energy up to the next step on the spiral staircase of time. Magic flight releases the creation into the world and prepares us for the wavespell to come.

Creative Power: endure
Function: presence
Action: transcend

So for example, I was born the 31st day of the month. For me, I am aligning to the message for the No. 4 Tone: Self-Existing. And I am contemplating the statements: Defining, Ordering, Natural Cycle, Meaningful alignment and how these words can be mirroring to me changes in myself I am feeling. It helps me understand the feeling I am having of wanting to have everything in my life in order; and that I am defining myself by aligning and attuning to myself that are meaningful for me personally.

I am also being inspired to encourage you to get used to the word Galactic. Remember Billy Crystal's fun statement, "You look marvelous, darling, simply marvelous!"

Well, I am mirroring to each of you: "You look galactic, darling, simply galactic." I love that GALA is found within the word galactic. Gala means joyous celebration. The Divine is holding a joyous celebration of light. The celebration is centered around our evolution into beings of light; a race of angels, i.e. beings that shine with divine light.

Many of you may be familiar with the term Galactic Center, referencing the center of our Milky Way galaxy. Astrologers make us aware when planets are experiencing the energies of the Galactic Center. In 2012, for the first time in almost 26,000 years, our sun will be most closely aligned to the Galactic Center. This Galactic Alignment, which began with the Harmonic Convergence in 1987 and will conclude in 2023, presents a thirty-six-year window of opportunity for humanity to participate in the creation of a new era of expanded consciousness.

Astrologers have defined the Galactic Center as 26 degrees Sagittarius and 52 seconds. The Sabian Symbol message for the Galactic Center is: A sculptor. Keyword: Immortalization. Theme: Shaping Destiny (Diana E. Roche's The Sabian Symbols: A Screen of Prophecy). We are shaping our destiny. As I mentioned earlier, the crystal skulls are destiny couriers.

I also recommend Christine R. Page, M.D.'s book 2012 and the Galactic Center - The Return of the Great Mother.

There are symbols connected with the 13 Tones and I encourage you to consider making divine flash cards with these images:

1 - is a dot

2 - two dots

3 - three dots

4 - four dots

5 - single straight line

6 - single line with dot over top

7 - single line with two dots over top

8 - single line with three dots over top

9 - single line with four dots over top

10 - two lines over top of each other

11 - two lines over top of each other
with single dot on top

12 - two lines over top of each other
with two dots on top

13 - two lines over top of each other
with three dots on top

I asked my husband, Chuck, who is competent at Morse Code, what 3 dots and two dashes or lines spells. He shared that it spells SM. The letters SM or S.M. are used for Master of Science.

Could the Galactic Tones and Crystal Skulls be inspiring us to align ourselves with the divine consciousness that we are Masters of Divine Science? We are Masters of God's Science.

Angelic Blessings of Galactic Tones,

STAY CALM/BE THE CALM

2011-01-31T02:25:00.000-08:00

Dear Angelic Blog Buddies:

Many of you know that I was inspired by the angels to create the website Psalm91Angels.com along with the super talented artist, Cheryl Kirsch. It is our hope that people will acquaint themselves with the blessings of Psalm 91 which is known as the Shield and Protection Psalm. At our website, we share some amazing stories about how the reciting of this beautiful psalm has wrapped people in God's protection.

I love the words of this Psalm: "I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God, in Him will I trust."

In short, God is my strength. I go to God when I need help in coping. And, quite frankly, I have been going to God a lot more lately because I am in need of God helping me stay calm; be calm. I am in need of God helping me cope with all the changes that are taking place.

The Bible also inspires us with the words, "Be still, and know that I AM God.

In the midst of these amazing, accelerated energies that have me bouncing off the walls at times, the Divine is lovingly reminding me that the way to cope is to be still and acquaint myself with God's many expressions of strength, one of which is calmness.

Haven't you found that it takes unbelievable strength to stay calm in the midst of chaos?

Don't you feel at times you just want to be crazy or get crazy like the energies that are around you? It seems to take less effort to go with the agitation energies; however haven't you found that afterwards you are thoroughly exhausted from having participated in getting angry or stirred up? And I always end up thinking: Why did I do that? I know better.

We are are here to embody calmness; to exude calmness. That's a higher calling we have answered. We are here to be the calmness of the eye of the storm. The hurricane windsof change are our traveling companions. With whirlwinds around us in every direction, we are here to stay calm; be calm. We are here to hold the center.

The dictionary describes calm as: free from agitation; still or nearly still. Not excited by emotion; peaceful.

It comes from the Middle French word: calme which means quiet and stillness. However, before that there was the Latin word: caumma which means heat of the day. It references that at the hottest part of the day the recommendation is to take a siesta; be calm; relax.

So when things get hot, chaotic, explosive - take a siesta with God.

I think it is interesting that within the word calm there are the letters "alm". The singular "alm" is really not a word. The word "alms" is both the singular and plural. Alms means a gift or gifts for the poor.

So I am taking a little liberty here by reflecting that when we choose calmness, to be calm, we choose to gift that part of ourselves that is poor in spirit. The poor in spirit part of us is that part that wants to run around with our pants on fire and get ourselves in a panic and everyone around us in a panic as well.

I am writing this blog on the morning of my 60th birthday. The gift I want to give to myself this year is to get to know God's calmness more intimately and become that calmness within myself.

There's a lot of anxieties that we are confronting on a daily basis; there are a lot of people that are quite simply pure agitation energies. I think some people wake up in the morning with the goal to agitate as many people as possible.

Many of you know my love for blown glass and that I am a huge fan of Dale Chihuly. In watching a PBS special on Chihuly (Fire and Ice), I recognized that glass blowers have the attitude, if at first you don't succeed, just break the glass and reuse the glass to create a new piece.

We have to break up or shatter the parts of ourselves that just are not shaping into the divine form we are striving for. So the breakup of old thinking and behavior allows for sacred space for remaking ourselves. You've got to break it to remake it.

One way to break up the old forms, is to take a break. When we find ourselves going down a path of insanity, craziness, agitation, anger, anxiety, the key is to interrupt yourself.

You've heard the teaching that if you feel you are going to explode, count to ten.
It's important that we take a break to create an actual break from the non-abundant energies we may find ourselves slipping into. Walk away from a confrontation. Take deep breaths. Take a pause. It's funny but one way to tell negative behavior choices to take a hike, is to stop and take a hike physically yourself.

We have the gift of free will. Choose to relax. When you feel yourself wound so tight that you feel like you are going to snap; do something that gives you the feeling of unwinding yourself. Take a walk. Physical activity relaxes the muscles that are tense. Walking helps clear the mind and calm the emotions. Someone shared with me this weekend that she walks daily through her neighborhood with her two dogs. She chants while she walks. How blessed is that neighborhood?!

There's so much yamma yamma coming at us from all directions that it's hard to listen to a very important voice: the voice of your own personal body.

Another of God's infinite strengths is wisdom. God has given us a body that speaks to us. As the lyrics of the song tell us, "It is in every one of us to be wise."

Some years ago, our carbon monoxide alarm went off in our house. It was the evening of my birthday. The alarm awoke Chuck and myself. We had a poof back from our furnace and carbon monoxide was released into the house.

The fire department was called and one of the fireman told us that there had been a slow furnace leak for sometime and it finally got to the alarm level. He was amazed that no one had experienced headaches in our home. Well, I had been having painful headaches in the middle of the night and had chosen to brush it off. My body was telling me loud and clear that something was not right; and I chose not to listen. It is only by God's grace that Chuck and I, and our dogs are still here on the planet.

Pay attention to your body. Listen to its voice of protection. Migraines, body stress, exhaustion are all signals from the Master Physician within that there is something to be alarmed about on the physical level. Just as with the carbon monoxide incident, my body was pulling the alarm with extreme headaches to get my attention.

The body will give us whisper warnings and then there are times it will pull the fire alarm. Medical research has shown a parallel between anger we do not deal with and the body's responding with a heart attack. It's just not healthy to keep things bottled up inside of ourselves. I truly believe that the Master Physician energy inside all of us talks to us continously. The Physician will attempt to get our attention through spiritual inspirations; then mental communication; then emotional and if we don't get the message the messages are communicated through the physical body. The messages are wake up calls that something is out of balance and needs attention.

I once read a statement that for every one thing that goes wrong, there are a hundred blessings. So when we have that one negative experience, it is a great time to be still, get a journal out and write 100 things that are great in our life. Sometimes teachers would have students write a statement 100 times to ingrain within the student's consciousness the desire improved behavior.

We have free will to either energize the calamity or chaos energies or strengthen ourselve with God's calmness. We can choose to stay in God's calmness until we feel our strength fortified and we are able to be the calmness in living our lives.

There's a lot of emotional stress on the planet. We are experiencing sadness, anxiety, fear. We are in the midst of great changes. Change means something is ending the way that it was before and is making room for something new. There are things that are happening that are out of our personal control, such as floods, tornadoes, etc.

With the endings we often experience the emotion of sadness. Sadness over loss of jobs when a business ends. Sadness over loss of home, property - even lives - when there are natural disasters. It's hard to stay calm when your whole world is changing before your eyes.

There's anxiety about the future. I am simply sharing this because we are all dealing on a day to day basis with intense energies.

It is important that we avoid needless pain. As I stated above, there are things that are out of our personal control and we need all our spiritual strength to stay calm dealing with these changes. We can support ourselves by recognizing situations where we create pain for ourselves. It can be in our thinking or in allowing our buttons to be pushed by others.

And sometimes we are just plain afraid of the unknown. We don't know what the future will bring. We put on a good face for the world; however, on the inside we are just downright scared.

In the Bible the statement "fear not" appears 365 times. That means there's a fear not in the Bible for each day of the year. In short, God has got us covered.

God has given each and every one of us the gift of the companionship of a guardian angel. As Psalm 91 shares: He shall give His angels charge over you; to keep you in all your ways.

I shared with people that I am a modern day Paul Revere telling people, "The angels are here. The angels are here." God has given us so many wonderful gifts of support and one of the greatest is the gift of the angelic kingdom. The angels are God's messengers of God's eternal love for us. When writing Commune with the Angels, I was given the message to share that the word Angel brings the blessing of

Accept
Now
God's
Eternal
Love

There's a lot of bizarre behaviors taking place on planet earth; a lot of bizarre circumstances. Circumstances do not create our happiness. It is our attitude, our outlook, our approach to life that matters. The word worry comes from the Dutch word "worgen" which means to strangle. We often strangle ourselves with our worrisome attitudes. In Commune with the Angels, I also shared the inspiration: Don't worry about tomorrow. God is already there.

My attitude for this new birthday year is to remember that when I feel at the end of my rope, I just need to go to God for re-enforcement. I just need to remember to go to God for replenishment when I'm getting low on calmness.

There's been times in my life when I was seeking solutions and answers, and I would call someone and they would truthfully reply, "I cannot help you." I had to keep looking.

I love Psalm 91's words "He is my refuge" so very much because the reason why God is my ultimate refuge is because God never, ever tells me: Jayne, I cannot help you.
How awesome is that?! God always helps. Always.

One of my favorite, shortest prayers is: God help me.

There are so many beautiful names of God. One is Jehovah Jireh. The translation is God: The provider of all. All the help we will ever need in our lives, God provides. All the calm we will ever need, God provides.

Angelic Blessings of God's Calmness,
Love, Jayne

2011 - CONSCIOUSNESS MASTERY YEAR

2010-12-27T10:13:00.000-08:00

Dear Angelic Blog Buddies:

As we prepare to welcome in 2011, let’s take a look at the energies of this new year and the opportunities being presented to each of us for our spiritual growth.

The number 11 is known as a mastery number. In my service with spirit and studying numerology and the significance of numbers, I have been inspired to recognize the number 11 as two “1’s” side by side.

The first one represents the one (1) of our own individual expression, ie. the I AM. For example, I am Jayne. The second one (1) represents my individual expression, i.e. I AM Jayne, recognizing my divine identity, i.e. a thought of God, I AM Jayne, a holy woman child of God.

The number 11 is the representation of the statement I AM THAT I AM. In spiritual astrology the message of the 11th House is: I KNOW. So we are experiencing the realization of knowing I AM THAT I AM.

2011 is a year of KNOWING. It is a year of knowing ourselves as God thoughts. Albert Einstein stated: I want to know God’s thoughts; everything else is detail.

Carl Sagan expressed that we are all made of star stuff.

I would like to expand that thought to personally say, 2011 is the year of recognizing we are made of God stuff.

It is a year of knowing that we are here to live our lives with consciousness. The word consciousness means: coming together with knowingness.

We are here to know it is up to us to enhance, enlighten and enrich our minds in order to align ourselves with God’s consciousness of us.

Jesus inspired us with His words: All this and more you shall do.

2011 is a year of being conscious about the more inside of each of us.

The angels have always inspired me to recognize that whenever we are stirred by seeing the number 11, i.e. on the clock 11:11 – it is our soul being stirred in recognizing our mission and purpose: to know ourselves as God created us. The first one of the number 11 is our individual self standing beside the divine perception of us.

In studying the chakras, I have always been intrigued by the seventh chakra (the chakra of the crown and top of our heads) being referred to as a ten thousand lotus petal.

I know what it means, yet it has always been a challenge to wrap my mind around all those petals(10,000 to be exact) being part of my singular head.

Well, in November of 2010, spirit gave me an opportunity to have a personal seventh chakra experience at Longwood Gardens. In short, it was a BLOOMIN’ MIND experience.

During the month of November, Longwood had on display a mammoth mum. It is known as The Thousand Bloom Chrysanthemum. In Japan it is known as Ozukuri.

The term Ozukuri refers to a technique that originated in China and expanded to Japan several hundred years ago. It refers to growing an extremely large Chrysanthemum, with a goal of producing the maximum number of flowers possible on a single plant.

The technique requires that there is only a single bloom on the end of each individual branch. None of the flowers on the sides of the branch is used. And to further complicate matters, each flower must be perfectly placed in concentric horizontal rows on a dome-shaped frame.

The largest specimen recorded in Japan had over 2,200 flowers. Only a few growers in the entire world have been able to produce a plant that large.

Longwood produced a plant with 991 blooms for 2010.

Ozukuri is a dying art form. There are only a few growers in the entire world skilled in the techniques needed to grow a Thousand Bloom.

Longwood Gardens’ team of growers is led by Yoko Arakawa, who has trained in Japan with the master chrysanthemum growers and she continues to travel to Japan to advance her understanding of this rare art form.

Longwood’s 991 bloom mum is the largest Thousand Bloom in the United States.

When Chuck and I stood before this magnificent work of art, we first were blown away by the sheer beauty of the Thousand Bloom. We were experiencing the beauty of 991 white mum blooms. And we were in awe of the accomplishment and the symmetry of the Thousand Bloom. I felt I was having a universal experience as I was looking at the Thousand Bloom. I was in awe. God has created the Universe as such a tremendous intelligent and powerful organization. There is a super symmetry in everything. And that includes us. We are here to develop a total mastery of consciousness.

As I bent down to see where the source mum plant was, I felt an energy running up the back of my spine, to the base of my neck and then radiating through my head to my crown chakra. I was having a mirroring experience from the Thousand Bloom. The mum was speaking to me and saying, “See me and you see yourself.”

I then realized that the individual blooms were very symbolic of all the universes that exist within my mind. There are worlds within worlds inside of each of us waiting to be discovered and explored.

God has given me a mind that through my own efforts I can tend to just as Yoko tends to Longwood’s Thousand Bloom.

I was reminded of the lyrics of one of my favorite songs, “It’s in every one of us.”

It’s in every one of us to be wise
Open up your heart
Open up both your eyes

2011 is a year of embracing the divine identity that we are wise men and wise women.
It is a year to practice being vigilant with our thoughts; a year to pay attention to what thoughts our minds are having and when needed, change our thoughts and thinking.

Dr. Pillai of the Mind Science Institute says that ignorant behavior of cells is due to the ignorant mind. Once mind consciousness becomes more intelligent, there will be no room for diseases in the body or diseases in the mind.

We are being inspired to think beyond ourselves. To stretch ourselves with wisdom that enlightens us; enhances us; enriches our lives.

Always be asking yourself, whose thoughts are you thinking? A lot of times we just run our minds on programmed thinking, and the program isn’t our program and most certainly isn’t a divine program.

Just as you change your TV when you come upon a program you don’t want to watch, don’t hesitate to change your thoughts to positive, uplifting and inspiring thoughts.

2011 is a commitment year. Commit to changing your life for the better. Commit to thinking thoughts that are worthwhile thinking. Too often we are committed to non-commitment. I love the fact that the group COMMITTED just won the top prize on the TV show SING OFF.

Commitment is the key to conscious thinking. As we focus on being conscious thinkers, we realize that we do a lot of “junk thinking”. 2011 is the year to practice feng shui on our minds. Let’s release the clutter and the junk thinking.

As we raise our vibration by being committed to living a life that is filled with choices and chances in our thoughts and thinking that support our life enhancement and spiritual growth, we are aligning ourselves more closer to what is being called the God Particle Mind. The God Particle Mind is the essence of energy of infinite possibility; infinite potential.

There’s a lot of speculation about the future, in particular 2012. We are creating the future by our actions in the now. Be alert in every moment and live each moment fully and abundantly. As I wrote in Commune with the Angels, don’t worry about tomorrow; God is already there. Live fully and abundantly in the now.

As many of you know from your studies of abundance consciousness, poverty won’t change until the state of the mind changes. Statements such as “Believe it and you will see it” convey this wisdom.

When we choose to stay stuck in old programs or old thinking, we are choosing to vibrate at a low level. Through chants, affirmations, decrees, we can shift ourselves into vibrating at higher levels. I’ve shared in other newsletters and blogs that in Peter Pan, Peter teaches Wendy, Michael and John to fly by thinking lovely thoughts.

2011 is a year of mastery consciousness. We are conscious of the power within us and we own our power. We are the guardians and stewards of our own personal, God-given power. The greatest gift is the power of free will.

The mind has the ability to manifest anything it wants. We are here to live our lives choosing to be responsible and powerful.

Our true wealth is our consciousness.

There’s a beautiful Biblical verse (John 15:7)

“If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatever you will, and it shall be done for you.”

God is inspiring us to remember that if we are willing and choose to abide and be in oneness with God’s consciousness; and know that God’s thoughts abide in us – because we are truly God thoughts – then whatever we ask will be accomplished.

There is really only one mind. It is God’s mind that perceived and conceived all of us. When we choose not to align ourselves with God’s mind, and have non-abundant thoughts, I refer to that as “being out of our Divine Mind.” You are either in your bloomin’ mind or out of it. The choice is yours to make.

I have always loved the Bible’s reference to the healing waters of the pools of Bethesda Temple. The name Bethesda means house of healing. “The angel descended into the pool and troubled waters and healing took place.”

An angel of God would descend into the pool and would heal the waters and all those who got into the pool were healed.

I have come to recognize that the pool could very well be symbolic for our minds. Sometimes our minds feel like a pool of troubled waters. Have you had moments where you felt you were drowning in your worries and fears?

I have always shared that the spiritual path is not for whimps. It takes dedication and commitment and we need to show up for our lives. I encourage people to get a life and preferably get your own life.

2011 is a year of changing negative habits and negative thinking for good; and to expand upon that statement: the changes are for goodness sake.

In his booklet, The Law of Financial Success, Edward C. Beals writes:

“If you have to walk over a field or through a forest, you know how natural it is for you to choose the clearest path in preference to the less worn ones, and greatly in preference to stepping out across the field or through the woods and making a new path.”

This is true for our thinking as well. We take the path of least resistance; we keep thinking the same old thoughts and following the same old thought patterns because it’s easier.

2011 is the year of blazing new brain trails and mind paths that support ourselves through all that enriches us, enhances our lives and enlightens us to be conscious of ourselves as children of God. John Randolph Price used the term: Super Beings.

Don’t you think it is interesting how many movies and TV shows are about super heroes?

It’s time to embrace our divine identities and embrace all the gifts God has given us to discover within ourselves. “Ye are gods; be ye transformed.”

2011 is a year to live our lives with a conviction to releasing outdated thinking with new thought patterns. And it will take us rolling up our sleeves and being vigilant.

The old path and/or old thinking are not options in 2011. This is a year of brain illumination. Keep the commitment, the focus, the light on your mind, brain power, thoughts and thinking.

Whenever a negative thought tries to sneak back in; change the thought immediately and stay focused on the positive.

Energize yourself with people who are inspiring. Just as you charge batteries – charge yourself with books, movies, groups, etc. that support your conviction and determination to be the fullness of mastery consciousness.

I receive inspiration from spirit, because it is my service to share what I receive so that like the angels, I can be a inspirational cheerleader to you.

Recently I had a profound experience that was an epiphany for me personally. Because of this event, I am now personally calling 2011 the EPIPHANY YEAR.

Epiphany comes from ancient Greek and means manifestation. It is the sudden realization or comprehension of the larger essence or significant meaning of something.

2011 is going to be a year of manifestation of miracles.

In the Christian faith, it is celebrated as the date the Magi found the Christ Child. In Eastern Orthodox Christian Churches it is called the Feast of Theophany which translates to “God shining forth” or “divine manifestation.”

I would like to interject again my calling 2011 as the EPIPHANY YEAR. It is the year of God shining forth and divine manifestation in our lives.

I have always loved all those who witnessed Christ’s birth, i.e. shepherds, Wise Men, animals in the manger. I learned about them in Sunday School. Would you believe that my childhood church was: Boring United Methodist Church. I once told someone that and they thought “Boring” was an adjective. They said to me, “I am so sorry your church was boring.” Isn’t that a hoot?

I loved that my parents had a nativity scene in our home. It was as if the cast of characters were living in our living room. They were plastic; living in a cardboard manger on top of our television set.

I especially love the Magi and whenever I am at a flea market and see any orphaned nativity members, I buy them. I no longer have 3 wise men; I have more of an assembly of wise men. So the song’s lyrics would have to be changed from “We 3 Kings” to “We 20 Kings of Orient are…”

As you know the Wise Men brought the Christ child gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh.

A few months ago, I was teaching an anointing class and I couldn’t get the myrrh bottle to open. No one could. I said, “Well, myrrh is keeping to itself and doesn’t want to come out at this time. There’s something going on with myrrh.”

A few month later, I would have the opportunity to personally experience a traveling icon known as the Myrrh-steaming Mother Of God. The icon of Mary wasn’t crying myrrh; Mary was blasting it out of the art. It was an incredible experience.

Myrrh is an anointing oil used for new-born babies. I believe the Divine Mother is showering us with myrrh because we are re-birthing ourselves into divine consciousness. She is assisting our birthing.

During this same time period, a good friend of mine, Kimberley Kling who has the website: mysticgardens.webs.com – was inspired by the angels to send me an essence she had created with spirit called: Gift of the Magi.

A few years back I led a spiritual tour where participants took a riverboat cruise on the Danube River and we stopped at Cologne Cathedral, where relics of the Magi are on display. The most celebrated work of art in the cathedral is the Sarcophagus of the Magi, a large gilded sarcophagus dating from the 13th century, and the largest reliquary in the western world. For years, people have made pilgrimages to this cathedral to be near the relics of the Mwho had been near to Christ right after his birth. The cathedral is often called the Church of the Three Kings.

I’ve shared in classes the spiritual feng shui practice (which originated in the Catholic Church) of taking chalk and writing above or near your front door the letters that stand for the initials of the Magi traditionally named Caspar, Melchoir, and Balthasar.

The letters also represent the words: Christus Mansionem Benedicat which translates into “May Christ bless this house.”

I love this ritual because it is welcoming the Christ Consciousness to our homes and with the initials of the Wise Men, for me it is saying to God, “May your wisdom come to visit me and find Christ here in my house.”

On Christmas Eve I was watching Nightline, and there was a feature story about Brent Landau’s new book: Revelation of the Magi: The Lost Tale of the Wise Men’s Journey to Bethlehem.

I wish I could share his exact words; however, I was in sheer bliss and Jayne joy energy over one more Magi blessing. There is no coincidence that just as we are embarking on the glorious Epiphany Year a new book is released about the Magi.

The book is the first-ever English translation of the story of the Magi. Landau, a scholar of ancient Biblical languages, discovered a document while doing research at the Vatican Library. Ignored or neglected by contemporary scholars the story was written in Syriac, a language spoke by ancient Christians in the Middle East and Asia.

I haven’t received my copy from Amazon yet; however Marvin Meyer, author of Gospels of Mary wrote:

“The fascinating story of the Wise Men from the East who came to see baby Jesus is presented, for the first time in English, in a remarkable new version based on an ancient Syrian text, and the result is a tale that is astonishing, delightful and theologically sophisticated.”

Through this translation, we get to know the Magi at the same time spirit is inspiring us to know ourselves as Magi – wise men and wise women.

We find the word magi in “imagination” and also in “magician”. The origin of the word is magh and means: “to be able to; to have power.”

Remember again, Christ’s words: All this and more you shall do.

We are being inspired by spirit to be conscious that we are able to be super beings in bold ways and quiet ways. We do have the power to experience mastery consciousness in our lives on a daily basis.

Know that I am wrapping each and everyone one of you in love and blessings for the new year – 2011 – a year of embracing our Magi essence. 2011 – a year of Consciousness Mastery. Enhance, Enrich, Enlighten your wonderful BLOOMIN’ MIND.

Love in Abundance, Jayne

PAX ET BONUM

2010-12-19T05:46:00.000-08:00

Dear Angelic Blog Buddies:

Angelic blessings of peace to everyone.

I'm writing this blog as one year ends and a new year is just about to begin.

As we look forward together to 2011, I'd like to share an Assisi Assignment with you.

In Assisi, Italy, many of the homes have a lovely decorated ceramic tile at the doorway of their homes. The words printed on the tile are either

PAX ET BONUM (Latin)

or

PACE E BENE (Italian)

The translation for both is: Peace and well-being; peace and goodness.

I'm encouraging you to have somewhere near the entrance of your home the Italian, Latin or even English words which mean: Peace and well-being.

May this new year be a year of peace and well-being for all of us.

This blessing carries the energy, essence and goodness of St. Francis who was born in Assisi and is known as St. Francis of Assisi. St. Francis was a messenger of peace and the way he walked his talk throughout his life was the embodiment of living the prayer of peace and well-being for all; a prayer for all of God's creatures - human and animals alike.

The Dali Lama is a St. Francis of our times. I want to share a statement of the Dali Lama that equally expresses the blessing of peace and well-being for all. His words are: Calm abiding.

May 2011 be a year in which all of us experience calm abiding in our lives. May calm come into our lives and abide with us throughout the year.

During the Christmas season, I find great solace and calmness in meditating upon the nativity scene. My parents were humble farmers and so we didn't have a lot of Christmas decorations. One decoration that I absolutely adored in my childhood (and now is at Angel Heights) was the cardboard nativity and plastic figures of the Christmas story's cast that were placed in my family's livingroom. I think my folks purchased it at Ben Franklin's Five and Dime Store.

After learning about sweet baby Jesus, Mary, Joseph, angels, the shepherds and Wise Men in Sunday School, I loved seeing the Bible's words come to life as figurines each Christmas. The little plastic figures were retrieved annually from a box in the attic and graced our lives during the holiday season.

The love of the nativity scene has stayed with me my entire life; so much so that whenever I travel to another country I purchase a creche from that country. I have my own collection of creches that comes out as part of our Christmas decorations. I want to share that The National Cathedral in Washington, DC shares an awesome exhibit of international creches every holiday season.

I've shared with friends that I have embellished somewhat on the original nativity scene. I love animals. I was delighted one year to find Walmart had plastic chickens available for nativities. One of my girlfriends gave me a Native American nativity which includes horses, buffalo and bear,

Because of my love for the nativity, I researched the origin of our having nativity sets in our homes and live nativities at our churches. I found that it originated with none other than St. Francis.

It is known as The Greccio Experience. St. Francis was of course devoted to Christ and loved the Christmas story. He especially loved that Jesus' birth experience occured in a humble manger with animals surrounding Jesus.

Greccio is a very little town nestled in the Umbria region of Italy. It was a place that St. Francis loved to go to pray. St. Francis, in fact, had a cave in the mountains of Greccio where he went for prayer and meditation. Many of his friars frequented caves in the areas as well. Eventually one of the caves would become a chapel.

St. Francis was known and loved by so many people and some of them were quite wealthy. St. Francis made a request of one of those very rich individuals to help him in building a stable on the side of the mountain of Greccio. The stable was to be located near to the chapel cave. Then St. Francis asked his wealthy friend's assistance in building a manger and obtaing for him an ox and donkey and lots and lots of hay and straw. St. Francis wanted the ox and donkey because an ox and donkey were there at Christ's birth.

This was the year of 1223. There were no televisions to watch, or computers to sit in front of. No I-Pads or I-Phones. So as a stable and manger are being built, news is spreading that something special is happening on the mountain. People were very, very curious about what St. Francis was up to.

On Christmas Eve in December, 1223, St. Francis told all of his friars to meet him after dark at the base of the mountain. I need to share that the Christmas Eve of December, 1223 was actually Christmas Day to the Franciscans. For us, a new day begins at 12:01 am. However, in 1223 a new day began when the sun set. So after the sunset on December 24th, 1223 it was officially Christmas Day, December 25th.

The friars gathered at the foot of the mountain with torches lite and the people of the surrounding communities joined with them in anticipation. Some biographers say there were hundreds of people in attendance; some say thousands.

The friars passed the fire and light of their torches to the villagers' torches. In an essence, a candlelight procession was created up the mountainside.

There were numerous paths up the mountainside and the paths were filled with people carrying lighted torches shining in the darkness. Biographers reported that there was so much light on the mountain it appeared to be daylight; others wrote that it appeared that the mountain was on fire.

St. Francis took his torch and walked very slowly and deliberately up the path to the nativity scene. He had arranged for two people to play the roles of Mary and Joseph and had a handsewn cloth doll as baby Jesus in the manger.

As St. Francis made his pilgrimage to the manger, he sang mass hymns. In addition, since Francis had been known for his troubadour abilities as a young man, Francis also sang words praising Jesus that he sang to the music of secular songs known by the local residents.

Many of you are familiar with the lyrics of the hymn sung in churches: "We gather together to ask the Lord's blessing." The tune is actually a tavern song with the original words, "I once had a girl and her name was Matilda."

I love sharing with people that God knows how to work a room; and in this case, how to work the mountain. It just so happened that there were actual shepherds on the mountainside that very evening with a flock of sheep. They saw the torches of light coming up the pathways and were intrigued. So they moved themselves and their sheep closer to the manger scene so they, too, could see what was happening. I have a sense there were a multitude of angels in attendance, too.

The people walked, sang, prayed, and experienced the magic of the first live nativity. Just imagine yourself being part of the procession up the mountainside.

They felt the spirit of God within them as they literally moved themselves closer to the Christ child. Each of them was experiencing a personal pilgrimage to a sacred spiritual experience.

Francis was not a priest. He could not offer mass. He did, however, have a priest who did offer mass for everyone. By the time they arrived at the manger scene it was midnight. It was the first midnight mass. Francis was a deacon. He could read Scripture and offer the homily as well. That evening Francis sang the Scripture. He was known for his beautiful voice. He sang with his heart, soul and love of Christ.

His homily shared his enthusiasm for the celebration of Jesus' birth. His dream of creating the actual nativity experience had been fulfilled. He wanted people to be able to see with their very own eyes the birth of Christ and he had done that for the friars and hundreds (thousands) of people in attendance.

At that point in the service, St. Francis picked up the handsewn doll and held the baby Jesus close to his heart. Biographers have written that people in attendance who were close to the manger saw the doll's eyes become real. Many witnessed St. Francis actually holding baby Jesus in his arms.

In addition to the ox and donkey. Francis had had the manger filled with lots of hay and straw. Straw is used for bedding for animals; hay is used as food for animals.

After the service, people wanted something to remember the event by and so people grabbed up the hay and the straw as a memento of the special evening (some things never change, right?). There are legends that people fed the hay to sick animals they owned and the animals were healed. The hay was also placed on top of the bodies sick people, especially women who were especially challenging pregnancies, and these people, too, were healed.

In sharing this story, someone told me that a part of their Italian heritage is to place a little hay in their wallet - hay from the nativity scene - so that during the year ahead their finances are blessed by Christ and the hay also reminds them, whenever they open their wallet, what true riches really are; where all good gifts come from.

Additionally, someone shared that it was her family tradition during the month of December that whenever a child in the family did a good deed, it was rewarded by the individual being given hay to place in the family nativity manger. The children witnessed their good deeds making baby Jesus' bed softer. She indicated that on Christmas morning, the manger which had been empty throughout the month was now placed underneath the Christmas tree with baby Jesus in the manger. Jesus was there to remind the children what the ultimate Christmas present really is.

Here we are in December, 2010 and we are still keeping the traditions that St. Francis originated: midnight mass; candelight processions; singing Christmas carols; live nativity scenes. St. Francis is also credited with being the first to stage a Renaissance drama. It all started on the mountainside of Greccio. It all started with love in the heart of St. Francis.

I'd like to close my blog by sharing a prayer that St. Francis prayed. It is called "Prayer for Enlightenment".

Most high,
glorious God,
enlighten the darkness of my heart
and give me, Lord,
a correct faith,
a certain hope
a perfect charity,
sense and knowledge
so that I may carry out Your holy
and true command.*

Angelic Blessings of peace and well-being to you.
Love, Jayne

*The words of the Great commandment teach us to love God with your heart, soul, body, mind, strength.

THE HOUSES OF THE ZODIAC

2010-11-16T07:27:00.001-08:00

Dear Angelic Blog Buddies:

I am going to share with you information about the houses of the zodiac. If you have a copy of your own personal natal birth chart, you can take a look at what planets are in each of the twelve houses.

I find the more we delve into studying astrology, the more we are able to see ourselves through God's eyes. Your natal birth chart does not dictate your life. It simply gives you an understanding of the God thought that you are and the support God gives to you from all the infinite gifts God makes available to us, i.e. the gift of the energies of angels near the throne of God known as planets.

I am first going to give you an understanding of the meaning of the numbers of the 12houses of the zodiac wheel.

I will also share the mundane or everyday astrology meaning of the house and the spiritual meaning of each house.

I will conclude this blog with the Archangel and Archaii that are guardians to the 12houses – the divine deity essence for each house.

When an astrologer casts a natal chart for you, you are given the chart in a form of a wheel or a circle.

The zero or the circle is the cosmic womb in which all is born and in which all exists.

The circle is the divine shape we cannot truly see, for we are within it. It is not possible to be outside the circle of God.

The circle presents the beginning of focus.

The zero is not a number. It represents the divine “I am that I am”. Form exists within it. The circle does not exist within form.

All symbols reside in the the zero or eternal circle of God.

The glyph on your natal chart for your personal Sun sign is a circle with a dot inside of it.

Before the circle with a dot, there was simply the circle.

I love Einstein’s words: "I want to know God’s thoughts; everything else is detail." We are all God thoughts.

As God held the thought of precious you, the dot came into being in the circle. The Sun glyph is a symbol of God thinking of you.

The circle is the Godhead/Divine.

All that was, is and ever shall be.

In this time of evolutionary changes and spiritual growth, one of the messages the angels give us is to put ourselves in spiritual circles. For example, Lucky Sweeney and I and have an astrology circle called The Cosmic/Evolutionary Tribe that meets once a month in my home; and for people who choose not to travel to a class, we also host a teleclass Cosmic Tribe once a month.

The No. 1 – the First House - A Vertical Line:

In mundane astrology the first house is the House of Personality; personal style.

It all starts with the point. A point of focus; a beginning point. You have heard the statement: The point is...

And from the point spirit stretches itself outward and creates the vertical line.

1 is an upright vertical line. It represents spirit descending into matter.

Energy is leaving the Godhead/Divine and is taking form, shape.

It has masculine qualities. It is spirit in form.

It is outgoing, dynamic energy, fiery, upright, commanding.

It conveys the spiritual message I AM. In an essence it is the message: Here I AM.

The No. 2 – Second House - a + Sign

In mundane astrology it is the house of security, money, resources, possessions, talents, gifts.

Every energy has an opposing polarity. The horizontal line joins with the 1 to create the symbol for the number 2 is +

It is the vertical 1 coming together with the horizontal line (line of earth's horizon) and creating a plus sign.

The two is the soul’s energy. The feminine, the receptive and supportive qualities of mother earth. The horizontal line represents the earth. Just think how much Mother Earth supports us; gives to us.

The horizontal line is an ancient symbol for matter and the material world.

The spiritual message is I HAVE.

It inspires you to think of what you have in matter and in the material world; also your soul’s possessions, i.e. integrity, values.

The angels have inspired me in my service to convey that we are walking, talking, breathing Holy of Holies. The Holy of Holies was sacred space/a divine bedroom where blessings were birthed by the divine.

Masculine – Abba/Father/sky/spirit
Feminine - Matrona/Mother/earth/soul

Together they give birth to the divine thought of you.

No. 3 – Third House – the Triangle

In mundane astrology it is the house of communication; information exchange.

The triangle is the first closed form that can be made with single lines.

Three is known as the first number of completion; this is why things happen in 3’s – it completes a pattern.

Father – Mother – Child
Male – Female – Child

It has long been a symbol for the trinity.

The triangle symbolizes a gathering of universal creative energies.

There’s a story of Werner von Siemens. He was the founder of the German electrical company by the same name.

In 1859 he climbed to the top of the Great Pyramid in Egypt.

He stuck his finger into the air over his head in a victorious gesture of having reached the top. To his amazement, he received a prickling feeling/vibration through his finger and also heard a sharp noise.

Curious by nature, he wrapped a wet paper around the metal neck of a wine bottle to create a crude Leyden jar, a device for storing an electric charge.

As he held the device above his head, sparks began shooting out of the Leyden jar. It appeared to Werner von Siemens that the Great Pyramid was an electrical conductor of some sort, a focus of creative energy.

The message of the third house is: I THINK

It conveys the message: I think, therefore I AM

We are here to think of ourselves as divine. We come from divine parents who gift to us spirit and soul energies. By honoring these energies, we are able to use the gift of free will to think of ourselves as God's blessings on earth. When we put on our divine thinking caps, we become a focal point of creative energy from God.

When someone makes non-abundant thinking choices, I simply say that they are out of their divine mind.

No. 4 – 4th House - the Square

In mundane astrology it is the house of home, personal roots; family.

The square is the second perfect shape that can be drawn with single lines.

It is symbolic of earth.

Four points on a compass, i.e. the four directions.

Four elements of the earth: fire, earth, air and water

The four sides of the square represent the four parts of the individual.

Physical body/triangle mind/plus of the soul/one of the I AM spirit.

Now, spirit has a soul, a mind, and a body in which to exist in the material world.

In Kaballah, the four stages of creation are the sacred chant of Yod Heh Vod Heh.

The chant weaves the message: TO BE.

I share with people that as you come through your Mother's womb, your guardian angel is there welcoming you to earth and whispering one word: BE.

The square is a building block.

Think of how we use the word square: Square deal; square meal.

The spiritual message of the fourth house is I FEEL.

5th house – No. 5 – Pentagram - Five-Pointed Star

In mundane astrology it is the house of children, play, pleasure, self expression.

The Pentagram – sometimes called Witches’ Cross, Wizard’s star, Star of Knowledge. It is a five pointed star.

It was used by Pythagoreans, philosophers and magicians. It is called the Pent Alpha.

Alpha – A – the birth letter

Penta – Five points

If you cut an apple open you will find five seeds inside the shape of a pentagram, indicating the five senses.

It symbolizes humanity – it is often depicted as human standing with legs astride and arms out stretched – forming a five pointed star with the body.

It is the number of experience; five fingers – personally touching life. We are here to experience our lives. One of my quotes is: Get a life; preferably get your own.

It is the spiritual message of: I WILL

I WILL experience my life personally

6th House – No. 6 – Star of David - Two Triangles - One Pointed Upward; One Pointed Downward

In mundane astrology it is the house of service, duties, health issues, environment.

Two interlaced triangles – the Philosopher’s Diamond.

Also known as the Great Yantra, the Philosopher’s Stone

Magen David (Shield of David)

Solomon’s Seal – used by Solomon to invoke angels.

It was adopted in the 17th century by Jews as an official symbol; however this symbol predated Judaism.

The original source was the Great Yantra.

The Female Primordial Image pointed downward - the Yoni, Sophia that which was before the Universe was.

Brought forth the upward pointing triangle, the male, the lingam. The union of Goddess and God.

As above, so below.

The triangle pointed upward is also seen as Divine Father/Divine Mother/Divine child identity.

The triangle pointed downward is the earthly experience of Father/Mother/child

Upper triangle – spirit world; Lower triangle – material world

David used this symbol on the shields of his soldiers as a protection; heaven and earth comes together and protects the individual. David recognized the power in the message of the shape of the symbol.

Our body belongs to earth but our spirit belongs to heaven.

The spiritual message is I EVALUTE and ANALYZE

We look at our lives and determine how we can be a healing; and what needs healing in our own lives. We recognize we are blessed to be blessings here on earth. We are given God assignments.

No. 7 – House 7 - A Square with a Triangle on Top

In mundane astrology it is the house of marriage, intimacy, commitment.

The seven is created with the triangle and the square.

It is the most mystical of numbers because it uses two perform forms – the triangle and the square.

It forms a shape that looks like a little church.

This is the house; this is the steeple; open the doors and see all the people.

Seven gives us the triangle of a relationship with the divine –the triangle pointed towards heaven; and it is joined with the square of earth.

On the 7th day God rested. I believe that God communed with all the He had created. The Divine was able to have a relationship with everything – all the kingdoms.

Seven is known as a sacred number. Seven days of the week. Seven basic chakras. Seven original planets.

The spiritual message is: I MIRROR/I ECHO

No. 8 – 8th House - The Infinity Symbol

In mundane astrology it is the house of death, attitudes towards life and death, sexuality.

The symbol for the number 8 is the infinity symbol – the lemiscate.

That which conveys a going out; and a coming in.

Only the number 8 can be drawn over and over without lifting the pen from paper (the circle which is not a number can be drawn this way, too.)

The circle is reflected in the number 8; it looks like two circles together.

The eight is infinite, repeating, reincarnation.

The ancient symbolism of the eight is the cube.

Four is the square; a pattern for the building blocks of the material world.

This pattern solidifies into the cube and we are moving from a two-dimensional figure to a three-dimensional world.

The number eight is the number of evolution; spiritual progression.

I want to also share the number 26 – which adds up to 8 (2 + 6 = 8).

The Precession of the Equinoxes or the Great Year is about 26,000 years.

There are 26 weeks between the solstices and equinoxes.

Marathons are 26 miles.

The marathon is a test of the will within the body – the body’s maximum physical capability.

In the Great Pyramid there is an Ascending Passage called the Hall of Truth and it has a slope of 26 degrees.

In the book The Great Pyramid Decoded, Peter Lesmerurier states that the 26 degrees represents evolutionary progress; the ability to reach our fullest potential.

The spiritual message for the eighth house is: I DESIRE

No. 9 – Ninth House - A Circle attached to a 1

In mundane astrology it is the house of journeys, education, travel, beliefs, religions, philosophy.

The shape of a nine is a circle with a one attached to it.

It is the one of the I AM – the individual – and the circle – the eternal is whispering into its ear.

It represents an awareness of the bigger picture.

We have an expanded awareness; an expanded sensitivity to the vibration of God.

The appearance of self as alone and separate from other things is an illusion.

It’s the message of Bette Midler’s song: From a distance.

Merlin transformed King Arthur into a hawk so Arthur could soar above the earth. from above the earth, Arthur realized that land boundaries are manmade. And from this vantage point he was inspired to create the Round Table and invite Knights from all countries to participate in being a part of this evolutionary experience.

Nine is cosmic; galactic; universal.

The nine is the messenge that we are part of a greater whole.

The spiritual message for the ninth house is I SEE

No. 10 – Tenth House - A 1 with a 0 beside it

In mundane astrology it is the house of career, profession, reputation, social status.

With the number 10 we have the 1 standing with the infinite. It is the 1 of the I AM standing with the circle right beside it. I always describe the 10 as God right there with us taking the training wheels off. We are never alone, but it’s time to take the bike out by ourselves.

The spiritual statement for the tenth house is I USE

It conveys the message: I use my mastery to be a blessing; I use my gifts to help others.

No. 11 – Eleventh house - A 1 with another 1 right beside it

In mundane astrology it is the house of friends, clubs, organizations, associations, goals, allies, strategies.

The no. 11 is created with two 1’s standing side by side.

It is the 1 of the I AM standing face to face with the original vision; original God thought of you.

You are seeing yourself as God sees you; 11 is a master number and conveys the message of a number of great inspiration – the spirit of God is in me.

The spiritual message of the no. 11 is I KNOW

In an essence it means, I know myself as God knows me.

No. 12 – 12th House - A 1 with a + beside it

In mundane astrology it is the house of hidden resources, hidden concerns, hidden enemies, the subconscious mind.

In creating the 12 we have the 1 of the I AM joined with the plus sign.

The plus represents A masculine and a feminine energy.

It represents the birthing of a new world; a new reality.

It is the message that you are now a co-creator with the divine

You stand with your own masculine and feminine energies and with the divine whispering to you: what will you birth? What will you create?

It is the spiritual message of I BELIEVE

What do you believe is possible in your life?

Clothing for Little Children for Winter

2010-11-04T08:38:00.000-07:00

Dear Angelic Blog Buddies:

I received this email from the Sisters of St. Joseph of The Spiritual Center in Windsor, New York. Many of you know them personally. Many of you attend retreats at The Spiritual Center.

They are asking for help in raising monies to clothe little children for the winter.

If you wish to send a donation (in any amount), send it to:

The Spiritual Center
712 NY Route 79
Windsor, NY 13865

Love in abundance, Jayne

************************************************************************************
This is a copy of the actual note sent to me from The Spiritual Center.
************************************************************************************
Dearest Jayne,

We have just come from a meeting from our rural poor ministry. It was brought to our attention that there is an area of real poverty that needs some help for children. The schools our nuns check have children that cannot go out to play due to no winter coats and boots. We at the Spiritual Center are taking on trying to raise funds to clothe these children.

Sister Susan has been able to purchase for 50 dollars snow suits, boots, gloves and hat for one child. It is the little ones that are in need. Do you think you could use your email contacts to see if anyone would like to give a child an outfit for this winter. Since it is getting very cold now we need to act soon for them.

All donations made to The Spiritual Center are tax writeoffs. If anyone wanted to help us, Sister Susan will do the shopping and we will see everything is delivered directly to those who need it.

50 dollars for a full outfit, 20 dollars helps us get blankets for the kids. Blankets are a real need in rural ministry.

If anyone has extra blankets they want to send us or winter coats, hats, gloves
they also would be most appreciated.

With love, your sisters at The Spiritual Center

MESSAGES FROM LOVED ONES IN HEAVEN

2010-10-29T07:29:00.001-07:00

Dear Angelic Blog Buddies:

It is my intention that this blog be a blessing to you in sharing ways we receive signs and signals from our loved ones in heaven.

CJ Lewis wrote: For as much as you love someone, that is how much pain you are going to feel when they are gone. Yet, you would not give up the love to avoid the pain.

It is my belief that our love for those who die takes on a new dimension of experience when they die.

When someone is here, we are able to speak to them directly, i.e. face to face. We are able to see them with our physical eyes. We are able to call them on a telephone and have them answer. It is easier to communicate with loved ones when both of us are in the physical. That's why it is important to tell people in your life that you love them.

When our loved ones die, the love is still there – same as before. However, we are in physical form and they are not. They are now in spirit form. We are required to stretch ourselves and expand into a new dimension of thinking and believing that wasn’t necessary before when we both were in physical bodies. We learn how to use our spiritual eyes and ears. We learn how to stretch our thinking about ourselves and our loved ones.

When we have loved ones in heaven we begin to recognize that while we are here on earth, we are not human beings having a spiritual experience; rather our divine identity is that we are spiritual beings, who while on earth are having a physical body experience. The spiritual part is eternal; the physical body is not.

I love Albert Eistein’s quote: I want to know God’s thoughts. Everything else is detail.

God held the thought of each and every one of us and that thought is of us as a spiritual being.

It has been said that just as a little bird cracks its shell and flies out, we fly out of our shell, out of this body. We call this death; but death is simply changing form. When we die the physical form becomes purely spiritual form.

Dr. Elisabeth Kubler-Ross wrote:

Death is but a transition from this life to another existence where there is no more pain and anguish. All the bitterness and disagreements vanish and the only thing that lives forever is love.

Love lives forever.

Mother Teresa shared the following about her mother and sister who were in heaven:

My mother and sister must be very happy to be home with God. I am sure their love and prayers are always with me. When I go home to God, for death is nothing else but going home to God, the bond of love, will be unbroken for all eternity.

When we are missing our loved ones, mother, father, children, friends - anyone we love who has closed their eyes to earth and opened them to heaven, remember the bond of love is always there. The love between us when someone dies. Love is eternal.

Their love and prayers and well wishes for you are always with you.

Jesus shared the Beatitude: Blessed are they that mourn, for they shall be comforted.

It is my desire to comfort you with my blog in sharing with you some of the ways your loved ones are sending you messages from heaven.

I want to add before I begin my list, that if you have had something happen and you stop and ask yourself: Did I just get a sign? – that is your answer; the very fact that you asked, is confirmation that you did.

Angel DJ’s at work with your loved ones: hearing songs on the radio that have meaning for you, i.e. hearing a favorite song of someone you love who is in heaven.

Birds – seeing birds in trees around your home, ie. Doves – messengers of peace; bluebirds/bluejays – messengers of happiness; red cardinals – life is eternal.

License Plates as messages: U R LOVED

Messages on sides of trucks that you see while driving.

Breaking of glass – shattering of glass – it is a sign of dimensions merging

A phone rings you answer. No one is there.

A phone rings and the number of someone in spirit appears in caller id.

Feeling a change or shifting in energy around you. The space around you becomes hot or cold.

Seeing something out of the corner of your eye. A flash of light. An image.

Hearing music or sounds, i.e. heavenly music.

Hearing someone call your name.

Dreaming of the person.

Experiencing a dream that is more than a dream.

Seeing someone who looks like your loved one – just for an instance – a morphing experience.

Getting a message in the mail – a flyer that has message just for you in its words. I was missing someone in heaven and was having a Jayne pity party. I even remarked to God, "I think everyone has forgotten me." The next day a book came in the mail that someone had been inspired to gift me. Title of the book: We Are Not Forgotten.

Computer message appearing out of the blue, i.e. a name appearing on the screen.

Cloud formations.

Messages received when in water – at beach, in shower, in the tub, by lakes, by oceans.

Electronic equipment turning on, ie. radios, etc.

Lights turning on or off on their own

Equipment that didn’t work, suddenly is repaired and back to working.

A feeling of stillness; a feeling of quietness. Profound peacefulness.

Feathers appearing.

Pennies appearing.

Images appearing on photographs; loved ones appearing in pictures. Abraham Lincoln (deceased at the time of the photograph) appeared in a photograph taken of Mary Todd Lincoln.

Orbs showing up in your digital pictures. Round white balls of light.

Fragrances – smells, scents around you.

Feeling as if someone is sitting on the bed. Feeling the mattress sink down.

Being in a location that is special and feeling the person’s presence.

Seeing images in mirrors; seeing images in reflective materials. (Recommend Raymond Moody's book: Reunion)

Meditation experiences. Desiring to learn how to meditate.

In times of indecision feeling support, receiving clarity; guidance.

Messages from spirit communicators; someone from heaven says hello to you in a private consultation.

One day I was doing a consultation for someone and someone in spirit came into the session and got my attention by radiating energies to my vocal cords. I was coughing and said to the client, "Someone is here who says here name is a peanut." The woman replied, "It's Grandma Goober". As soon as the person is acknowledged by the individual, the coughing stopes.

The woman had come to me for angelic healing and comfort because her husband suddenly announced he wanted a divorce. Before Grandma Goober allowed me to go back to the healing session, Grandma gave me the message for her grand-daughter who she loved eternally. Grandma Goober never liked her husband anyway. And the woman was healed with laughter because she said that was the truth. I asked the woman if I could share this story because it is a beautiful example of the fact that our relatives are like angels who love us and care about us from heaven.

Pets knowing you need more support; pets sticking by your side.

When in a darkened space, feeling sensitive to spirit.

An increased desire to fix or buy a favorite food of the individual.

Feeling open to learning about angels.

Feeling a desire to stretch spiritually and to learn more about the mystery of life. Wanting to know more about your intuitive gifts.

Feeling touched by spirit.

Numbers as messages. Numbers with meaning appearing., i.e. someone's birthdate numbers. Double digits appearing; triple digits appearing.

Feeling drawn to high vibration places, shrines, sacred spots.

Reunions – sentimental journeys; stories told by relatives. Getting together and everyone just starts talking about the person.

Out of body experiences while sleeping.

Doing things that honor the individual. This opens doors of communication.

Google earth computer site allows you to zero in on special locations, i.e. googling a childhood home location. Feeling inspired to visit places where you lived with the people who are now in spirit.

Twixt and tween times of day are special. Just before dawn; just before dusk.

Watches and clocks stopping at important times; stopping at 11:19 - and November 19 was person's birthday.

Hubble pictures inspiring you; i.e Eye of God image.

Intuitional thoughts – knowing something that you don’t know how you know it

Fullness of heart experience.

Knowing you are not alone.

Alarms going off.

Feeling energies around doorways, thresholds.

Enhanced light experience. The room suddenly lighting up. You are thinking of the person and all of a sudden the sun comes out from behind a cloud and totally fills the room with light. It's God Joy energy blessing you. The joy of loving relationships that never end.

Other world experiences. Things you just cannot explain away. You might even ask: What just happened here?

Lightbulbs popping out.

Being prompted to be in a group that is healing.

Seeing things with soft eyes.

Feeling called to read spiritual books.

Watching John Edwards on tv. Sylvia Brown and other communicators. Watching The Ghost Whisperer.

Bridges as symbols.

Feeling or seeing the person and feeling as if you could reach out and touch the person.

Feeling helped through difficult times.

Having telepathic experiences with loved ones.

Feeling a caress, a kiss, a hug.

Feeling nurtured by your loved one. Feeling strength being “beamed to you”.

If your loved one had a signature scent, sensing that scent.

Partial and full appearances of the individual; sometimes in light form.

Hologram experiences – sensing a glimpse into another dimension.

A feeling the picture is being transmitted by the loved one. You may be dreaming or meditating and you are watching a movie.

Encounters in the alpha state of dreaming. Just as you are drifting off to sleep; or just as you are waking up. This is a relaxed state and can be achieved while you are daydreaming.

Equipment that is unplugged working, i.e. phone ringing and voice of loved one is heard. One woman who has a son in spirit experienced a Christmas light – not plugged in – being on.

Loved ones are able to be infinitely creative in sending blessings to you.

Seeing rainbows. Seeing double rainbows.

In closing this blessing blog I would like to share a poem I am certain many of you are familiar with: It is entitled: DO NOT STAND AT MY GRAVE AND WEEP.

This poem beautifully conveys a loved one in heaven's message of being part of the wind, the snow, the sunlight, the autumn rain, the rush of birds in the morning and the starlight at night.

Do not stand at my grave and weep.
Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.

I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glint on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.

When you wake in the morning hush,
I am the swift, uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circling flight.
I am the soft starlight at night.

Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there, I do not sleep.
Do not stand at my grave and cry.
I am not there, I did not die.

Mary Frye (1932)

GINESTHOI - Make It Happen

2010-10-15T13:35:00.000-07:00

Dear Angelic Blog Buddies:

A few months ago, a friend of mine shared that for her birthday she wanted to go to Philadelphia's Franklin Institute to see the new Cleopatra Exhibition and wanted to go on her birthday, September 30th. She wanted to know if Chuck and I wanted to join her that day.

Chuck and I both enjoy seeing anything Egyptian, and so we proceeded in ordering tickets for the exhibition and being a part of her birthday celebration.

It turned out that September 30th was the day that a tropical storm named Nicole decided to stir up things with intense winds and rain on the East Coast. The weather forecasts were pretty bleak for traveling. However, I was getting a clear message that we were to go.

Our friend also called our house the evening before to see if we wanted to cancel. We never heard the phone ring nor did the recording actually record that she made on our voicemail.

Since she didn't hear from us and we thought we had not heard from her, she proceeded to meet us as we had planned and our threesome drove to Philadelphia. Even though all of us have driven through some pretty tough weather to our meeting point, once we were in the car together on the way to Philly, the rain stopped; and there was literally very little traffic on 95, which is remarkable by itself.

We made record time to the Franklin Institute. So much so, that I commented that I would talk to the ticket takers to see if we could exchange our tickets for an earlier time to see the exhibition. We were at the Institute over an hour earlier than we had projected.

I will never forget the experience of the three of us coming up from the parking garage to the Institute's main floor. The elevator doors opened and I looked out to discover that the only people at the museum were the employees. There was no one there but the employees and now us.

It ended up that throughout the entire day there were no more than about 50 people (and that is a stretch) in the entire museum. Usually there are bus loads of children and lines of people.

When I asked the ticket clerk if I could exchange my tickets she said, "Honey, you can do anything you want today. Go any time you want."

I looked at my girlfriend and said, "You must have been Cleopatra in a former life and the angels have orchestrated for you to have the museum to yourself today." Chuck and I were grateful to be tagging along with Cleo. It was a very memorable day to say the least.

The exhibit is there until January 2, 2011 and I recommend it abundantly. One item that I just had to write to you about is a papyrus note, that archaeologists believe features the handwriting of Cleopatra herself.

She wrote in Greek the word: Ginesthoi - which translates to Make It Happen.

As I was walking around the exhibit prior to discovering the papyrus, I was looking at the showcased artifacts and was saying to myself, "Well, Cleopatra, what wisdom do you have to share for those of us who are spending time with you here in Philadelphia in 2010?"

When I do private consultations with people, I ask them the question, "When it is time for you to close your eyes to earth, and open them to heaven, how do you want to be remembered? What life statement do you leave as a blessing for those who follow you?

Just after asking Cleo for her wisdom, I came upon the showcase of her message: Make It Happen.

I want to recognize Dr. Zahi Hawass, Egypt's pre-eminent archaeologist and Secretary General of the Supreme Council of Antiquities and also Franck Goddio, French underwater archaeologist and director of European Institute for Underwater Archaeology (IEASM). Because of them we get to experience more than 250 artifacts which had been lost to the sea and sand for nearly 2,000 years.

Because of their passion for archaeology, they made it happen. In the words of Dr. Hawass, "We give the American people the chance to learn about our search for Cleopatra and share with them the magic of this fascinating queen."

I am writing this blog mid-October 2010. About a week ago we experienced the calendar event of 10-10-10. In my service with the angels, I share the message that 10 is the number of mastery. The number ten is made up of two numbers = 1 and 0. It's the "1" that represents the gift of our unique one-of-a-kind life (I am - you fill in your name, ie I am Jayne); standing next to the "0" - which is God/Creator/the Infinite - the never-ending. It is in an essence knowing that, of course, God is always with us; and at the same time is taking the training wheels off and saying to us: Live your life fully and abundantly. Go for it. Make it happen.

It takes courage to look in the mirror at ourselves and say honestly, "I am going to make it happen." And the "it" is whatever expresses the fullness of you. You could decide you are going to make creativity happen in 2011; make a new business happen; make time for peace and quiet happen in your life; make time for spiritual practices; make exercise happen; make love happen. The choice is yours to fill in the blank as to what the it will be for you.

And it is something we can do in small steps. We can choose and decide that we are going to make simple joys happen in our life. I recently led two September weekend retreats at the Spritiual Center in Windsor, New York and asked each of the participants to share what they did in their lives to give themselves the gift of a simple joys in life.

You could feel the energy in the room become so calm, peaceful and relaxing as everyone shared what kindnesses they extend to themselves in small ways on a daily basis. I remember reading the Dali Lama's words: "My religion is kindness."

I personally think kindness is a wonderful thing to make happen. Kindness to ourselves. Kindness to others. Kindness to animals. I want to make kindness happen.

I looked up the word kindness. It evolves from an Old English word "gecynde" which translates to meaning close to kin. The word kind has KIN in its letters. So when you are kind, you are treating the person or animal as if they are a kindred spirit or akin to you. Webster describes kindness as gentleness; goodhearted; considerate in our behavior; affectionate; loving.

Queen Cleopatra was the last great pharaoh of Egypt. She definitely has captivated people's interest in her because of the mystery around her life. The conclusion of the exhibit shows numerous film portrayals of Cleopatra and it was an absolute hoot listening to Vivian Leigh be a southern belle voice of Cleopatra in her film portrayal of Cleo.

No matter what dialect we hear Cleopatra speak to us in, she is in an essence an ancient voice of a Divine Feminine/Goddess messenger. When she became Queen of Egypt she was simultaneously recognized as the embodiment of the Goddess Isis.

And so the Voice of the Goddess conveys the message: Remember me by what I wrote on the papyrus. Here is my wisdom decree: MAKE IT HAPPEN.

Angelic Blessings of Ginesthoi, Jayne

INTO THE WILDERNESS

2010-08-11T14:10:00.000-07:00

Dear Angelic Blog Buddies:

The angels inspired me to share a question that spirit is asking us:

Do you know what it means to be wild?

We are writing a new script for the Holy Grail legend. We are all truly grail seekers, seeking our own divine identity. In the former Grail odyssey we come to a divine appointment with someone who is waiting for us to ask the right question. It is as if life is a Jeopardy game, and we need to be able to ask the right question.

In the Holy Grail legend of the past it was the divine appointment with the Fisher King and the question that needed to be asked was: Who does the grail serve?

In this new script, we will be having a divine appointment and will be meeting the Divine Mother who will be expressing herself as Wild Woman. She will do the asking.

She will ask a question of us that will in itself create an an opportunity to experience an answer inside of us. The answer won't be a thought; rather an energy experience. The question we will be asked at some time in the future with our own intimate divine appointment meeting with Wild Woman Divine Feminine is:

Do you know what it means to be wild?

Think about what the word "wild" means to you.

I was walking outside and discovered wild berries growing. Beautiful bright red, ripe wild berries. I didn't plant them. Mother Nature planted them.

Observe things growing wild in nature in your own environment.

Pay attention when news reports a animal being released back into the wild.

National Geographic just introduced a new channel: National Geographic WILD. New stories have been reporting how a man named Ed Stafford just finished a two-year odyssey of walking the wild Amazon river.

Look to the Bible for inspiration about the importance of the wildnerness environment. John the Baptist lived in the wilderness. Jesus went into the wilderness. Moses and the Israelites spent 40 years in the wilderness.

I was inspired to revisit a program I had recorded on The Dead Seas Scrolls. In watching this program again I was inspired by the commentary on the words "in the wilderness" being so important to the Essenes of Qumran; and equally important to the authors of The New Testament as well. An observation was made that people of the Old Testament as well as people of the New Testament saw the wilderness as a place that offered an opportunity for spiritual growth to be experienced. The wilderness is a place where intimacy with spirit is experienced.

We are living in a time where wild is taking on new meaning. Get ready for a wild ride in the sacred space that simply is being called: the wilderness of your soul.

Remember the song: Wild Thing. Wild Thing, you make my heart sing. We are all wild things.

Infinite Mother/Divine Mother/Sacred Feminine is a wild woman. We have attempted to own her; manipulate her; neglect her, abuse her, groom her to our liking, control her, and the list goes on.

She wants us to get to know her WILD side and our own wilderness identity.

When Chuck and I visit Assateague I experience the wilderness energies with the wild ponies. They are self-sufficient. They live in the wild. When I look at them and feel their energies, I feel them asking me: Do you know what it really means to be wild?

At a recent visit to Assateague, I overheard a tourist complaining about the wild behavior of the ponies. One of the ponies had come into the campground and figured out how to open a container and shook out all the food. The woman was upset over the pony's non-conforming behavior.

I was thinking to myself, "What part of wild don't you understand?" She even complained that the ponies were an annoyance to her vacation. This is an example of humanity's belief that our needs transcend the needs of other kingdoms we share space with on Mother Earth.

Many of you have probably seen the oval stickers on people's cars that are a few letters/short abbreviations for places people have visited. Assateague's code letters are AS IS, pobviously short for Assateague Island. I love that the abbreviation chosen spells the words AS IS. We have one of the stickers on our Jeep. The message inspires me to support Assateague National Park being kept as it is (aka AS IS): a place where wild ponies and wilderness energies still exist.

A few years ago there was a movie: Into the Wild - the story of a young man who went on a journey across country; eventually ending up in Alaska where he unfortunately died; but he was feeling a call to go Into the Wild. The wilderness of his soul was calling him.

The wild essence of us is such an important essence of our divine identity.

In spiritual astrology, transpluto (that which is beyond Pluto) energy conveys to us how we side track, at times, our own wild energies, by striving for perfection. Being upset if a hair is out of place. If all the t's aren't crossed; or i's dotted. We are control freaks.

We sometimes let a few people get away with looking wild, i.e. Einstein. However, often times, we judge people who have a wild look about them.

One of the Sabian Symbols: the untidy man - actually is describing the holy men of India - who have a wild look about them because they are no longer attached to the earthly body identity. They are seen as blessed beings in India, and whenever they come to a village, the village responds as if God has come to visit them.

Look at the wild, chaotic energy of the cosmos for inspiration. The birthing of a new star is pretty wild looking.

We are shifting from controlling molecular minds to expansive, wild God particle minds. We are opening ourselves to God's infinite energies and the experience of opening to having God particle consciousness is pretty wild to say the least.

You may find you have dream experiences, and mind experiences that quite frankly are bizarre and wild.

A part of you will say, "What a crazy dream. What a wild dream. Everyone knows that fish cannot tap dance."

Welcome to the wild side where everything is possible because its God being God.

You are seeing things a new wild way. You are transcending the mind boxes. You are playing with expansive ideas you never thought of before. Isn't that wild?!

The divine is mirroring to you through wild mind thoughts, ideas - the wilderness of you.

I co-teach a monthly cosmic astrology class with Lucky Sweeny, and this month Lucky shared a wonderful teaching: Acknowledge the new; acknowledge the wild.

She encouraged everyone to say to that which presents itself to us as new and wild: I see you; I observe you; I am having divine dialogue with that wild part of myself; that new part of myself.

It's freeing; it's liberating. It's wild.

I truly believe the first garden, aka Eden, was not a garden that was manicured but a wild environment where everything grew freely and abundantly and in divine harmony. The angels' inspiration is that the now time is a time filled with the energies of the original wilderness and this time we have an expanded consciousness.

Look around the planet and observe how humans live convincing themselves that control and manipulation is natural. Wild came first. And I mean really wild.

Share sacred space with the wild. You may find that you will begin hearing wilderness experience stories. You may notice that weather reports describe Mother Nature's activities as wild weather.

Get to know the wild as you are opening to your wild identity. I am seeing the word "Wild" all over the place.

There's going to be moments that a wild thought is going to float right through your brain. Just let it float.

Additionally, the wild is at times so new, bizarre, radical in change that it has us feeling a little wobbly. I remember as a child I went to Gwynn Oak Amusement Park in Baltimore with my family. I loved a ride called The Wild Mouse. I rode in a little car on roller coaster type tracks that gave me the feeling I was literally going off the edge. After the ride, because of the thrill of it all, my land legs were a little wobbly.

Get use to a wobble walk. It's all part of the wild, new territory.

Welcome the wild. Get comfortable with the wild side of yourself. The essence of yourself that is the transpluto vibration - beyond the immediate known.

As I have shared in previous blogs, Assateague means "the place beyond". I have a
t-shirt that says: GOT ASSATEAGUE?

The angels are asking us: Got an openness to that place beyond your immediate consciousness? Got wilderness?

It's all a higher calling. It's the call of the wild.
Love, Jayne

COUNCIL OF GRACE

2010-07-19T07:40:00.000-07:00

Dear Angelic Blog Buddies:

Years ago, one of my teachers who was helping me learn how to promote my service, made me aware that once we "go public" with our work, it is similar to placing ourselves on a mountain top. Being on the top of the mountain, people see us and are aware of us; and at the same time it's a good place to be hit by lightning.

Being hit by lightning means being zapped by people's negative response to our service and I've had lightning hits in my life.

An angel store opened in a nearby town, and I contacted the owner and shared my willingness to come for free to talk about angels. The woman's response to me was this: "You are not welcome in our store. You are new age and we don't want your kind in our store." And she hung up on me. Zap.

After that zap, I experienced a number of radio program interviews where listeners were invited to call and ask me questions about my service with the angels. I experienced a number of people who called in and rather than asking a question, blasted me for being new age; telling me I was talking to the devil; doing Satan's work. Zap.

After these non-abundant experiences, I prayed to God for wisdom I could share when people wanted to go down the "new age" path. I wanted to know what I could say that would weave oneness, rather than the individual putting me on one side of the river bank and they were standing on the other yelling at me.

The response I received was this: Tell them you are all in the Grace Age. It will only be by the grace of God that any of you get through it.

Welcome to the Grace Age, folks.

In attuning to this message and witnessing all of the earth changes that truly remind me that it is only going to be by God's grace that we are going to make it through, the angels have made me aware of a Council of Grace. You may know the members under the name given to them by the ancients: The Muses.I call them Grace Angels or Council of Grace.

In Greek mythology, the Muses are the nine daughters of Zeus (Greek name is Zeus; Roman name is Jupiter) and the Goddess Mnemosyne (Memory). The angels have inspired me that the muse energies are divine powers of the angelic kingdom that serve God by inspiring us. Through our attunement with the muses' energies, we embrace the Divine Feminine/Goddess energies of Mnemosyne, a divine messenger inspiring us to remember who we truly are. Through mythology, God is helping us remember who we are; children of God.

I often share that a spiritual activity that is abundant to do is to visualize placing ourselves in the lap of the divine and saying to God: "Tell me about myself as you created me, because I am starting to forget."

I am encouraging you to take a look at your natal birth chart and see which of the twelve houses your birth Sun is in and as you read what I am sharing, you can see which of the muses or Grace Angels is an angel of inspiration to you personally.

Grace Angel Calliope
First House

Calliope's name means beautiful voice or the fair voiced. She is the oldest of the muses and seen as a leader of the muses or Grace Angels. She is the grace of first sound from source that then becomes words.

She is the Grace Angel of intelligence. She is a messenger who is the inspiration of philosophy. She inspires us with wisdom (philosophy means love of wisdom) to know what it means to be a spiritual being in a human body. She helps us answer the question: Who AM I?

As a muse she is often times depicted with a writing tablet. She is a guardian angel to writers and poets. The angels have inspired me to share she is a messenger to us in the importance of divine words, i.e. in the beginning was the Word. If you were to describe yourself in a word, what would that word be? I AM (you fill in the blank).

She supports us in writing the daily script of our lives.

By the way, my Sun is in the first house in my natal chart. I love inspiring people through writing.

Grace Angel Erato
Second House

Just as we have first sound with Calliope, with Grace Angel Erato we have the essence of divine lyrics. The heartsong of you; the love song of you. Her name means "the lovely".

The second house is the house of knowing what we have, i.e. energy, values, possessions, etc. Erato inspires us to know ourselves as lovely divine energy in physical form. Calliope is the Grace Angel of intellect; Erato is the Grace Angel of emotions, i.e. knowing the passion energy of you. You have the divine essence and energy of love within you. You are a walking, talking breathing lovesong. God loved the thought of you so much you were given the gift of your life.

In one of my angel seminars, I gave everyone a mirror they could hold in their hands and inspired them to look in the mirror at themselves. The look was to be one of great love, compassion, and support. The song that played during this exercise was Rod Stewart's "Have I Told You Lately That I Love You."

What do we have in our lives? We have seconds, minutes, hours, days and years to embrace the divine reality that we are loved by God, and to love ourselves. Be a lover of your life and of yourself.

Grace Angel Urania
Third House

Urania is the Grace Angel of astronomy. I always encourage those I teach or lecture to get to know the stars. We are kin to the stars. Carl Sagan was quoted as saying we are made of the stuff of stars.

I highly recommend Jim Mullaney's DVD The Heavens Declare. One of Jim's teachings is that God placed us (humans) in the half-way point of all creation; halfway between the smallest sub-atomic particle and the farthest point of the cosmos. That placement was by divine design so we could feel our oneness and connectedness with everything. Jim is going to be a speaker this coming October at ARE in Virginia Beach, Va.

Urania comes from the Greek word for heaven. She is a messenger of all that is heavenly. She is the Grace Angel of the importance of science in our lives. Science is a creative art, too. See yourself as a scientist in your life: study, research, delve deeply into topics that inspire you.

What are ways to be an everyday scientist? Be conscious of the movement of the moon and how the cycles impact your life; be conscious of the zodiac and your personal alignment to the planetary angels near the throne of God through your natal chart; solar return chart; get to know the stars; be aware of new discoveries in space.

Any new discoveries in your life are God's blessings radiated to you by Grace Angel Urania. Be a Christopher Columbus and discover what God was thinking when God held the thought of you in the divine mind.

Grace Angel Clio
Fourth House

Clio is the Grace Angel of History. The fourth house in the zodiac wheel is the house of family. Clio makes us conscious of our family history. She makes us conscious of history we can learn from so as not to repeat mistakes. She helps us throughout our lives as we gleem understanding from our own personal history. Perhaps there are patterns that we came to embrace; and some patterns we came to change.

People often times look as karma as a higher calling to correct something, i.e. compensation karma. There is also continuation karma. This is good karma. We have woven a golden thread through many lifetimes (many past histories of our soul) and so we continue the service in this lifetime.

Clio's name means the proclaimer. As a muse she is often depicted with a scroll and a pile of books. She may inspire you to research your family tree or perhaps record family history or stories for your children or grandchildren.

She may also inspire you to get to know a group of people in history that you feel a heart connection with, i.e. studying the Essenes. We are all related. We are all family members of the family of God.

Grace Angel Terpsichore
Fifth House

Terpsichore is the Grace Angel of movement. The fifth house is the house of children, and our own inner child. Children love to be on the move. Sometimes they just go, go, go. Terpsichore is the Grace Angel of dance. Terpsichore's name means the whirler.

I have found personally that Terpsichore helps me with graceful movement to make a dance through challenges. Sometimes I will face a challenge and I will ask God's angels to help me waltz through it with grace. For those of you who are yoga practitioners, you understand the power of stretching movements.

All we have to do is observe the importance and power of dance around the world to see that dance and movement are intimately linked with spiritual growth.

The fifth house is the house of I WILL and Terpsichore is inspiring us to will or allow spiritual movement and growth in our lives. To allow our hearts to dance. There's a beautiful country song: I Hope You'll Dance with the lyrics:

I hope you never lose your sense of wonder
You get your fill to eat
But always keep that hunger
May you never take one single breath for granted
God forbid love ever leave you empty handed
I hope you still feel small
When you stand by the ocean
Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens
Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
I hope you dance
I hope you dance

Grace Angel Melpomene
Sixth Hosue

Melpomene is a very special Grace Angel. The sixth house is known for being the house of health, well-being and service. Melpomene is the Grace Angel of tragedy.
She comes as a messenger that our greatest spiritual health comes when we see what tragedy is on the planet that we can help heal by being of service. We've come to do divine service. We've come to be blessings to the planet; to people on the planet; to all the kingdoms of earth.

One summer I was blessed to be able to attend a week-long seminar with Dr. Robert Schuller at the Crystal Cathedral. I would get up early every morning and place myself in the front row right in directly in front of Dr. Schuller. I wanted his inspirational vibes to shower over me.

One remark he made that I will always remember was around success. If you want to be successful here on earth, just look for a need and fill it. St. Michael has often inspired me with the message that we are here to be of service where this is a call for "needfires". The fire of the divine is needed to help people keep the faith; maintain hope; move forward with God. We are living light that answers the call and service of going where divine fire is needed. Our fire or light will warm people; guide people; inspire people.

The angels have impressed me with the message that all of us are going to experience that which can be categorized tragedy. Do not focus on the tragedy. Do not give energy to the tragedy. Focus on how quickly you can recover from what has happened and quickly align and attune with God's help and healing as you continue your sacred walk in life.

Grace Angel Thalia
Seventh House

Thalia is the Grace Angel of humor; comedy. The seventh house is the house of relationships. It's your relationship with God; your Higher Self; your family; your friends; your pets, etc. One of my favorite paintings is the one depicting Jesus laughing. Laughing is so very healing and important in our lives. Laughter is a gift from God.

In my booklet Angelic Feng Shui, I share that it is not only important to have a first aid kit for aiding the physical body, but a first aid kit of good humor and comedy to heal your emotional body. You include in your laughter kit, pictures that make you laugh; movies that make you laugh.

As many of you know, I am downright dog goofy. I love the movie Best of Show and no matter what part of the movie is showing when I happen to remote surf onto it, I will watch it to the end. It never fails to make me laugh. For those of you who know this movie, you know it ends with two precious gentlemen who create a calendar of their two dogs dressed as movie characters, i.e. Scarlett O'Hara and Rhett Butler from Gone With the Wind.

I get together once a month with a group of girlfriends for a couple of hours and it always is so healing as we laugh and laugh at just about everything. I always feel this get together is a sort of sanity check for the month that our ability to laugh is still intact.

All of us need people and pets that help us laugh.

Just the other day on the TODAY show, one of their reporters did a segment on summer camps you can attend with your pet. Well the reporter didn't have a dog and I am not really certain she is a dog person to begin with, so someone loaned their dog to her and turned the dog over to her with the dog's frisbee.

It was an absolute hoot to watch, because everyone else had a relationship with their dog except her. The dogs wanted to be with their owners. This dog didn't want to be with her. So whatever she wanted the dog to do, it went the other way. They even had a massage session for owners and dogs. All the dogs who were with their owners were chilling out, loving the massages. This dog wanted no part of it or her. There was an outdoor obstacle course you could encourage your dog to playfully run; the reporter ran it with the dog watching.

The best part was the end of the segment where she was saying goodbye to the dog but the frisbee is no where in sight. As she talks they have balloon thoughts over the dog asking, "Lady, where's my frisbee?" And then the dog turns and shows its back to her and they have a balloon thought over the dog's head: "I'm done here." It was hysterical.

Don't you just love news pieces where reporters attempt to interact with animals, and animals express themselves in a way that totally re-writes the story? Many of you probably remember the hysterical Tonight Shows with Johnny Carson and animals from the zoo.

Grace Angel Euterpe
Eighth House

Euterpe is the Angel of Music. The angels have inspired me to present a new workshop this fall entitled Musical Angels and I know Euterpe is part of my team in offering this class. The eighth house is a very shamanic, sexual, transformational house. It is the house of desire and Euterpe's name means giver of pleasure.

Euterpe radiates energies through musical instruments that speak to our soul and awaken our divine identities and and support us in knowing ourselves as divine beings. The powerful drum attunes us to our oneness with the heartbeat of the divine. I truly believe that the DJ angels serve alongside of Euterpe. They play songs that are blessings to our souls.

Euterpe is a messenger of the power of music; all kinds of music; all kinds of instruments. Many of my friends are being inspired to try their hand at musical instruments. One friend is studying the violin; another the celtic harp. Others have purchased Native American carved flutes. One friend plays her guitar and writes her own music.

Make time for music that speaks to your soul and you are making time for transformation to take place. You've probably read in past blogs my honoring of Dick Clark who says we all have soundtracks for our lives. The songs that we connect with are truly transformational messengers. Have you ever heard a song and you felt it was written just for you?

For the solar return retreats this summer, the angels had me gathering throughout the winter months musical compositions that carry the energies of all the houses of the zodiac. It was truly an amazing experience to gather all this music together and create a cd from the angels' inspiration songs that embrace the essence of each of the twelve houses. I know Euterpe was helping me with this angel assignment.

Grace Angel Polyhymnia
Ninth House

Polyhymnia, of course, has the word hymn in her name. She is the Grace Angel of religion, worship, prayers and devotion. The ninth house is the house of seeing the bigger picture, i.e. learning about other cultures and religions; ways that people around the word show devotion to God.

Her name means "humns abundant" or She of Many Hymns. Her name conveys the message that there is not just one song that honors the divine, but many songs and many ways to lift ourselves up to God. There are many paths to God.

She supports our growth through seeing our lives as opportunities to do all that we can to praise God and rejoice in our relationship with God.

Some years ago a beautiful Hindu Temple was built near to where I live and the public was invited to attend an opening service. I was thrilled because I had never been in a Hindu Temple before and had always wanted to see what was behind the doors.

I went by myself fully expecting that others from the community would be joining me as "first timers" in visiting a Hindu temple. It turned out I was the only outsider and once inside I was thinking to myself, "What do I do now?" I was looking for an available exit when someone approached me to welcome me to their temple, and I blurted out, "I love Ganesha."

I am certain the angels guided me on this experience to heal some past life fear I carried forward into this life that if I didn't say the magic word they would kill me for being an outsider. The person smiled and then very sweetly guided me to the most gorgeous altar with a beautiful Ganesha statue. The person became a wonderful guide to me through touring the temple and making certain I felt like a very special guest and truly welcomed by all members of the temple.

For those of you who have your birth sun, in the 10th house, your Grace Angel is
Calliope who supports you in knowing yourself as the beautiful voice of mastery.

11th house Sun, your Grace Angel is Erato who supports you in embracing your eternalness; the lyrics never-ending. The 11th house is the house of the dreamer. What dream are you eternally dreaming?

12th house Sun, your Grace Angel is Urania who supports you in discovering the mystery of you; the worlds within worlds inside of you; making the invisible visible. Just as Christopher Columbus embarked on discovering a new world; you, too, are getting ready to make amazing new discoveries.

Angelic Blessings of Grace,
Love to all, Jayne

"The Muses are all of one mind. Their hearts are set upon song and their spirit is free from care. He is happy whom the Muses love. For though a man has sorrow and grief in his soul, yet when the servent of the Muses sing, at once he forgets his dark thoughts and remembers not his troubles. Such is the holy gift of the Muses to men." - Hesiod.

LIVING LIGHT

2010-07-01T13:37:00.001-07:00

Dear Angelic Blog Buddies:

I am certain many of you have lived your lives focused on experiencing yourself as God's light and living your life with a consciousness of being a blessing of light. You may have been inspired by beautiful gospel songs' lyrics such as "This little light of mine; I'm gonna let it shine." You have dedicated yourself and devoted time, energy and money to learning more about how to be attuned to God's light.

Perhaps on your spiritual path you learned healing techniques where you experience yourself being a conduit of God's healing light, radiant energies, such as Reiki or Munay-Ki. Just as Archangel Raphael, God's archangel of healing, you are a messenger of God's healing light energies.

You may incorporate light decrees and light calls into your prayers and meditations; and may be familiar with beautiful light invocations such as The Great Invocation of Light.

Recently I read a transcription of a lecture given by Dr. Pillai of Mindset University. Dr. Pillai is inspiring us to identity with being God particles. He even does a beautiful chant of the words: Higgs Boson, a name given to the God particle.

Years ago I studied with Consuela Newton, guardian of Integrated Awareness. Connie Newton taught her students a beautiful affirmation: I am the light; the light of the divine is within me; the light of the divine supports me and protects me; I am one with the light of the divine.

I have always loved her affirmation because it reminds me of God's support and protection and my desire to stay aligned with God's light; to be in oneness with God.

In my service with the angels, the angels have inspired me to recognize the formula for identity transformation.

They gave to me this message: You are first the doer. You then become the doing. Finally,you are transformed into the deed. You are the doer; you are the doing; you are the deed.

So let's use the example light with the formula for identity transformation. We first aspire to be someone who is attuned to God's light. We make a decision that we are going to be individuals that are all about light in our lives. Light is what we do. We are doers of light.

Secondly, we make choices to attend classes; read books; watch dvds,make changes in our lives that enhance the light; that enlighten us, etc. All of these are all ways that we practice or experience the "doing" of light.

And then something occurs by the grace of God. We become that which we first decided to aspire to; that which we devoted ourselves to actively pursuing; we become the deed. We become light. We are ourselves the identity of living light.

The "becoming light" occurs as a gradation experience. And often times we aren't aware of the level of light that we are.

I would like to share some things that might be occurring in your life that are reflections that you are walking, talking, breathing, living light.

Have you ever parked on a remote part of a shopping center parking lot and when you park your car there is no one around you, but when you come back to your car there are cars that are on every side of your car? These cars had to go out of their way to park near you. It makes me think of the Carpenters' song lyrics: they want to be close to you.

Chuck and I were on Assateague Beach all by ourselves. There's 14 miles of wide open beach. No one was there but the two of us until a car pulls up and parks right next to us. What a hoot.

We attended a firemen's carnival one evening just a little before the 11 PM closing time. There's hardly anyone at the carnival. We decided to sit down and play a game where you have a water gun and aim at a target. There was no one around but the two of us and the person running the game. Just before the game starts, people come from everywhere to fill up every single seat of the game. We still are laughing about that incident.

Have you ever been shopping and you look at something that interests you, and then all of a sudden a person comes out of nowhere and wants to look at it, too? If they could get inside your skin, they would. They are that close to you.

Don't be sad if you decide to wait on buying something, and when you come back, it is gone. Your touching it makes it attractive to others. It doesn't mean you have to buy things in fear they won't be there when you return. Just know there is more than supply and demand going on when you are shopping.

Have you been driving your car, going your normal route, only to realize that you missed a turnoff and you are driving a totally unique route. Don't think it's mental fog setting in. You just did a light run. Your car is a light mobile and often times we are prompted on an inner level to make route changes in order to help the angels.

You can be in a movie theater that has an abundance of seats to choose from, and people will sit near you. If only they would share their popcorn.

When you go to your car, do you sometimes find that the person and passengers in the car next to you arrive at the exact time you do and you have to wait for their passengers to get inside the car before you can open your driver side door? On some level, there is a light blessing exchange taking place.

When you are pushing a grocery cart down an aisle in a supermarket, do you sometimes find that the aisle you are in becomes the most popular aisle in the store? Attention Shoppers: Living Light in Aisle 3.

It's not about us and our human persona or being an individual; it's all about embodying the divine identity of living life as a walking, talking, breathing blessing of God's light.

Just as Domino's, and Papa John's and others deliver pizza, we deliver light. It shows up when we do.

And because of this, it is important that we take good care of ourselves. We are living our lives as lighthouses on the move. So it's important to keep our light shining bright because it's guiding others even when we not conscious of the service of our own light.

Angelic Blessings of Light,
Jayne

LOOK WHAT GOD GAVE ME

2010-06-21T04:14:00.000-07:00

Dear Angelic Blog Buddies:

I recently was listening to the words of Brad Paisley's latest song: Water. The lyrics convey the message of getting a map and going to where it is blue on the map. Go to water. Whether you are experiencing the water of oceans, waterfalls, lakes, ponds, hot springs, swimming pools, showers, or bathtubs, water offers healing to our spirits.

Water is so important to all of us. Every living thing needs water. If we are able to offer something as simple as a clay saucer filled with water on the ground in our gardens or backyards for the birds and other creatures, it is an abundant blessing.

Someone recently sent me an email which included a prayer by Dr. Masaru Emoto (researcher/scientist and author about the chacteristics and power of water) for the Gulf Coast tragedy:

I send the energy of love and gratitude to the water and all the living creatures in the Gulf of Mexico and its surroundings.
To the whales, dolphins, pelians, fish, shellfish, plankton, coral, algae, and all living creatures.
I am sorry.
Please forgive me.
Thank you.
I love you.

For the first half of 2010 I have been called upon to serve as minister for a number of funerals for dear friends who have lost spouses suddenly and friends who have died suddenly. In addition to this, my dear little 19 year-old Jack Russell Terrier, Benny, died and there is a huge void in our home and my heart. I have also felt my heart saddened by the cruelty being done to animals. In Baltimore there have been horrific incidents of cruelty done to animals by children. It's beyond my comprehension. All of this has been compounded by seeing the images of the oil spill's impact on the creatures of the Gulf coast. Sometimes life is emotionally overwhelming.

I am sharing this because it brought me to a point in my conversations with God where I asked for help in reconnecting with my own personal joy. I prayed for guidance as to what to do to heal myself.

I asked God: Should I see a therapist? Who should I ask for help?

The answer that I received was this: Talk to "little Jaynie".

I was inspired to ask Little Jaynie for a memory that would start the process of weaving joy back into my life pattern. I asked for an early JOY memory.

The memory I was given was when I was a child and I first experienced the ocean. I was raised on a farm. My parents were dairy farmers and so the cows were milked every morning and evening. Because of this, my parents did not take overnight vacations. Our vacation experience had to be contained in the hours between morning and evening milkings.

One summer day my parents took my sister, Joyce, and I to the ocean for the day. I remember when I first experienced the ocean and stood before it, I thought to myself "How could they have kept this from me?" It made me wonder what other good things they were keeping from me.

I think in some way it stirred within my consciousness a knowingness that everything that life offered was not contained or to be found in Upperco, Maryland. You have perhaps heard the lyrics: How are you going to keep them down on the farm, after they've see Paris. Well, my life was changed by the seeing the ocean. It was love at first sight.

The power of the energy of the ocean made me feel an energy inside of me like I had never felt before in my young life. This would be the beginning of a love affair with water.

While in my teens, the government offered a program to farmers where they could build ponds for free on their land. All the farmers in our area took advantage of this program, including my dad. As a result, we had a one acre pond on the farm which I adored. In the summertime, I spent every free moment in the pond. I love being immersed in water; being near water.

Little Jaynie reminded me of the healing power of the ocean and that first experience with the ocean as a little girl. And so I talked to my husband, Chuck, about my need to go to the ocean and in March we headed out for Rehobeth Beach. We got our beach chairs out of the car and walked down to the beach and sat right in front of the ocean. Instaneously the healing began. The smell healed us. The air healed us. The power of the ocean healed us. The beauty healed us. The majesty healed us. The fact that we were away from traffic and life's yamma yamma healed us.

A week or so later we took another trip to Rehobeth for the day. On this particular day, we sat on the beach until the wind on the beach became pretty harsh. I suggested to Chuck that we get in our car and drive south to Ocean City. While driving the car, Chuck had the inspiration for us to go to Assateague Island.

I remember going to Assateague Island years ago and loving it, and the thought that we might be close enough to do that delighted Little Jaynie. Chuck said Assateague was just south of Ocean City and so we pointed the Jeep towards Assateague.

When we arrived at Assateague and walked out onto the beach, we both were overwhelmed with the naturalness of the island. The pristine beach, the dunes, and of course the wonderful ocean. Even though on that particular day we only spent an hour at Assateague, we made the decision that Assateague was the place we wanted to come for future ocean visits.

Over the past three months we have visited Assateague six times and every time we go there something magical occurs to the point that we truly believe we are entering another dimension when we arrive at the beach.

On our second visit, I realized that neither Chuck or I are young puppies any more and carrying everything down to the beach was a real task. I prayed for inspiration and God responded with the God-thought of obtaining an Oversand Vehicle Permit for our jeep. We did that immediately. I am happy to say that we now drive our Jeep right onto the beach. We park the car and open the back hatch and have immediate access of whatever we need for our day of healing with the ocean without the lugging energy that we experienced before.

I have felt such a gratefulness to God for this healing for both Chuck and myself. The ocean experiences have truly been beneficial in Chuck's health improving.He just went to the heart doctor yesterday and got a fantastic report of abundant heart health.

I decided I wanted to do something as an acknowledgment of my gratefulness, so I became a "foster" parent to an Assateague Pony. The foal I adopted was in fact born on Be An Angel Day in 2009 - August 22, 2009. And you can imagine my delight (and Little Jaynie's delight) when I discovered that the foal had been named: JOY.

I found my JOY at Assateague with God's help and Little Jaynie's.

This past week we took one of our healing day trips to Assateague. We arrive pretty early in the morning and set up our beach chairs for a day of communing with the ocean. After our usual set-up, I took a little walk down the beach. And all of a sudden a wave offered up onto the beach - placing it right on the sand in front of me - the most perfect, whole seashell. It was as if the wave was the hand of God and was placing this shell in front of me on the sand. It's one the large shells that you hold to your ear and hear the ocean. I picked it up and starting running down the beach to Chuck shouting with joy: Look what God gave me! Look what God gave me!

Chuck and I both were amazed with the perfectness of the shell.We have only seen broken pieces of seashells on the beach before. I didn't look for anymore shells that day. Chuck and I both had the knowingness that this was the God blessing of the day and we were in total gratefulness for it. We even had the shell on a beach chair as if it was guest of honor for the day.

My joy exclamation: Look what God gave me, has become my daily mantra. I am taking time to truly look at, appreciate, be grateful for all that God gives me. At the end of the day I encourage you to look back over the day at what God gave you.

One more magical ocean moment I want to share occurred on Chuck's birthday. We went to Assateague on June 10th for Chuck's birthday. Chuck has some minor joint problems and so walking can be challenging at times; not all the time - just some times. Because we are frequent visitors now to Assateague we have seen the ponies just about everywhere except walking along the ocean. I commented to Chuck that I hoped some day we would see the ponies standing next to the ocean as I have seen in photographs and postcards. For me it would be the magical ponies next to the magical ocean.

Well, there we are sitting in our beach chairs in front of the ocean and four ponies walk right down the beach in front of us - just as if Chuck was the Birthday Grand Marshall in a parade viewing stand and they were marching on by. Look what God just gave us! Happy Birthday, Chuck - love, God.

Abundant blessings of Joy to each and every one of you,

IF ONLY YOU KNEW HOW MUCH I SMELL YOU

2010-05-22T12:40:00.001-07:00

Dear Angelic Blog Buddies:

Some years ago I bought a book that is one of my favorites to this day. It is entitled: "If only you knew how much I smell you. True portraits of dogs."

I bought it because the title is a hoot and the dog on the cover looks just like my Jack Russell Terrier Jackie, who is now in heaven. The photographs are by Valerie Shaff and the text is by Roy Blount, Jr. Inside the book, Roy puts into words the thoughts of dogs, one of which is: "What does that mean "expensive shoe"? I ate it because it smelled like you. Next time you come home to find that your dog destroyed one of your favorite shoes, just remember that your dog loves you and your smell. So when you are not around, the next best thing is something that smells like you.

I am delighted to share that just recently while browsing a bookstore I came across another book by this dynamic duo entitled "I am puppy, hear me yap - The ages of dog."

The reason I am starting my blog with this sharing is because dogs really understand smelling and sniffing. We are all familiar with dogs that are trained to help police because they can sniff out drugs; and dogs that are trained to help the armed forces because they can sniff out bombs.

Native American wisdom conveys that animals are our teachers. By their example, animals teach us to use the gifts that God has given us. Dogs have a keen sense of smell and they use it. I read recently where a scientist has been working with a dog in developing the dog's sense of smell ability to smell cancer.

Animals convey to us that the sense of smell is important and we should be consciously smelling.

Think for a moment about your favorite smells. A few of my favorite smells are baked bread, lilacs, the ocean, fresh brewed coffee; fields with freshly mowed hay, honeysuckle, roses, puppies, pine trees, and holiday wassail punch. Some of you may share with me the memory of the smell of mimeographing machines? Doug Larson wrote, "Life expectancy would grow by leaps and bounds if green vegetables smelled as good as bacon."

"Smell is a potent wizard that transports us across thousands of miles and all the years we have lived." - Helen Keller.

Sometimes we remember people because of fragrances. Many times when people experience the presence of the Blessed Mother they not only have a feeling experience of her presence, but also experience the scent of roses.

Think about fragrances worn by family members. I remember one of my Mom's fragrances was Evening in Paris; my Dad wore Old Spice. You can think of someone in heaven and immediately smell their smell. Sometimes when a loved one dies, we don't want to part with their clothing because we can hold an item they wore and be able to smell the person. Smell fills our lives with powerful experiences.

And what fragrances have you worn in your life? In high school one of the fragrances I liked was Heaven Scent. I also remember wearing Ambush. I remember when I made my first visit to New Orleans, I discovered two wonderful shops and an abundance of new fragrances. Hove Parfumeur is one of the shops, and the other is Bourbon French Parfums - a 165 year old perfumery. It was established in 1845 by August Dussan. New Orleans is such a sensual city. Good smells, good music, and good foods.

There are smells we love because of the work that we do. It's always wonderful when I teach my Anointing class and we pass around the essential oils for everyone to smell. By the end of the class, everyone is in a bliss state from the aromas. I'm sure carpenters like the smell of wood. Steven Spielberg was quoted as saying, "I like the smell of film. I just like knowing there's film going through the camera."

Life is filled with so much to love and be grateful for. I love the fragrance of flowers. The beautiful and abundantly talented actress and singer Lena Horne recently died. She once said, "It's so nice to get flowers while you can still smell the fragrance." She's right. Lets give each other flowers, and also give ourselves flowers while we can smell them.

Stop and smell not only the roses but all the flowers that cross your path. Stop and do an "open nose" meditation where you smell all the good smells of nature.

For those of you who live on the East Coast and are able to get yourself to Longwood Gardens, I highly recommend their first major exhibition. It is: Making Scents, The Art and Passion of Fragrance. It's on view through November 21, 2010. Longwood Gardens is in Kennett Square, Pennsylvania.

The exhibition is divided into four major section: Into a Fragrant World; The Art of Perfume and Fragrant Gardens; The Science of Fragrance; and Your Fragrant Garden.

The exhibit explores the sense of smell and how scent molecules send signals to the brain that trigger moods, emotions and memories. Olfactory neurons in the nose are stimulated by approximately 10,000 different odor molecules. Human beings are instinctually hard-wired to respond to smell, but individual reactions to particular scents can be experiential, based on culture and personal experience, such as the scent of cinnamon evoking joyful memories of family gatherings, or the fragrance of lilies acting as a poignant reminder of a loss.

Early in my spiritual studies, one of my teachers taught me to carry with me a fragrance that stimulated my mind with its positive aroma. I was taught that whenever my spirit or energy was spiraling downward, I was to stop and smell the fragrance. The fragrance activates a part of my brain that then motivates me to move forward with hopefulness and conviction to fulfilling my goals. Yes, it is important to think positive thoughts; however, positive smelling is really healing.

In my booklet ANGELIC FENG SHUI - 101 Ways to Make Your Home Heaven on Earth, I share how your home is your safe haven; sanctuary/sacred space. With the use of the fragrance of flowers, essential oils and incense we can raise the energy of our homes and purify the space.

Beginning with Queen Hatshepsut of Egypt, 3500 years ago people have set out on expeditions to collect fragrant plants in far away lands. Humanity has been seeking fragrant smells for a long time.

In 2000 BCE camels were domesticated and replaced donkeys on long journeys. Donkeys were slower and easily dehydrated. Camels were able to go longer distances. Because of this a new era and road was born: the incense route.

In 1850 BCE some of the world's earliest perfumes were distilled in Cyprus and were created by mixing extracts of anise, pine, coriander, bergamot, almond, and parsley with olive oil. In 2005 archaeologists uncovered what are believed to be the world's oldest perfumes in Pyrgos, Cyprus. The perfumes date back more than 4,000 years. The perfumes were discovered in an ancient perfumery. At least 60 stills, mixing bowls, funnels and perfume bottles were found in the 43,000 square foot factory.

1500 to 1400 BCE, Egyptians were using a perfume called Kyphi, a blend of 16 ingredients including honey, myrrh, juniper berries with wine.

1400 BCE - Exodus. God instructs Moses on how to construct the Altar of Incense. This altar was placed in The Holy Tabernacle. It was made from acacia wood. Moses was given the recipe for a special blend of pure incense that only the High Priest could create and use.

62 to 79 AD Pompeii - Decorative wall paintings show cupids making and selling perfume.

1100 AD - Salerno, Italy becomes the first great scientific center of Europe. The physician Salernus, influenced by the work of earlier Arab alchemists and by their invention of an alembic (an apparatus used for distilling), discovers the process for distilling alcohol for medicinal and pharmaceutical purposes.

1190 AD The Guild of Artisan Perfume and Glovemakers is chartered by King Philippe Auguste and reconfirmed by French Kings in the next six centuries. Napoleon I will be the one who will allow perfumers to work independently of glovemakers.

1370 AD The Queen of Hungary's Water - the first alchoholic perfume, scented with rosemary, is created.

1533 AD - Catherine de Medici of Florence travels to France to marry Henry II, and brings along her perfumer, Rene the Florentine (Renato Bianco) and her knowledge of Italian perfumery. Italian perfumery had assimilated exotic ingredients from the spice trade and was the most advanced in the world. Rene's laboratory was connected with Catherine's apartments by a secret passageway so that no formulas could be stolen en route.

1709 Gian Paolo Feminis, creates the first authentic eau de cologne called Aqua Mirabilis (Miracle Water). He moves to the German town of Cologne. In the 1750's the scent is discovered by French soldiers who bring it back to France and the new fragrance term "eau de cologne".

1715-1744 During King Louis XV's reign, perfumes are so much in demand that etiquette requires the use of a different fragrance each day at the Perfumed Court of Versailles.

1760 - 1798 The great perfume houses of Houbigant, Lubin, Chiris, Fargeon and Dissy are established. Some of these houses continued to produce fragrances into the early 20th century.

Mid 1800's The emergence of organic chemistry. In 1889 Guerlain creates Jicky - the first modern perfume to use synthetics.

1921 Coco Chanel launches Chanel No. 5. This is the beginning of perfume being seen as a modern art form and joined with the world of fashion design.

Fragrance is truly an art form. It has been described as a musical metaphor having three sets of notes, making the harmonious scent accord. The three notes are:

Top Notes also called head notes. The scents that are perceived immediately on application of a perfume. Top notes consist of small, light molecules that evaporate quickly. They form a person's initial impression of a perfume and thus are very important in the selling of a perfume.

Middle Notes. The scent of a perfume that emerges just prior to when the top notes dissipate. The middle note compounds form the heart or main body of a perfume and acts to mask the often unpleasant initial impression of base notes, which become more pleasant with time. They are also called the heart notes.

Base notes. The scent of a perfume that appears close to the departure of the middle notes. The base and middle notes together are the main theme of a perfume. Base notes bring depth and solidity to a perfume. Compounds of this class of scents are typically rich and deep and are usually not perceived until 30 minutes after application.

Dick Clark said that each of us has a soundtrack to our life. That soundtrack is made up of songs that we have loved through our life. We also have a smell track, made up of fragrances and scents that have touched our souls through our noses.

Take time to honor the gift of smell. Take time to appreciate the aromas, fragrances, scents and bouquets of your life.

Happy Smelling,
Love, Jayne

CATCH YOUR SPIRITUAL BREATH

2010-05-03T05:49:00.000-07:00

Dear Angelic Blog buddies:

Good morning. It is my prayer and intention to be a blessing to each of you in my message this morning. It is my intention to offer helpful inspiration on how to achieve and maintain inner peace in our lives. I bring to you peace offerings.

Peace. Webster’s definition of peace is: a state of physical or mental quiet or tranquility or repose. The absence of war. Freedom from mental agitation or anxiety. Freedom from violence or riot.

And wouldn’t it be wonderful to be in a state of harmony, quietness, stillness, calmness?

We’ve heard people question: “can’t I get a little peace and quiet?”; we’re familiar with terms such as peacekeepers, peacemakers, peace movement and peace time. From the sacred Native American pipe ceremony has evolved the popular phrase of sharing the peace pipe. In the words of St. Francis: Lord, make me Thy Instrument of peace.

We all want peace but somehow life gets in the way. I think each of us can think of all the things that act as interruptions and distractions in our quest for peace. You get into your car and start on your drive to work. You’re looking forward to a pleasant day. All is peaceful in your world and then you merge into traffic. We have a rotary near our home. There is a yield sign which is greatly ignored. I am certain everyone has had driving experiences where you are going the posted speed and people zoom by you as if you were standing still.

Mahatma Ghandhi said: There is more to life than simply increasing its speed. You wouldn’t know that is true from the speed people are driving these days. And many of us are experiencing “being left in the dust” – being left behind – being passed by. It triggers an emotional response inside of us.

That experience is more powerful than we think in diminishing our achievement of inner peace. Alabama has a song with the lyrics

I'm in a hurry to get things done
(oh,) i rush & rush until life's no fun
All i really gotta do is live & die
But, i'm in a hurry & don't know why

Life has become one big zoom experience. Anna Jane Grossman has compiled An Encyclopedia of Once-Common Things Passing Us By. She entitled the book: Obsolete.

The amount of change each of us has experienced to date in our lives and continues to experience in each passing moment is staggering.

Advancements in technology and science are truly amazing and abundant in many ways; however, we are being impacted dramatically on an inner level.

The younger generation now communicates with texting. A recent survey showed the number one way young people communicate with their parents is texting; they text more than they talk on the phone and even more than they talk in person.

Not too many people write letters anymore. Do you remember stationery stores? It won’t be too long until I will be asking you, do you remember the government department that use to handle mail? It was called the US Post Office.

Just like phone booths, public mail boxes are disappearing. And what about the changes in telephones. Some of you, like me, grew up with party lines. And then private lines came into our homes. Remember when the phone company would threaten you not to touch the equipment they placed in your home. Isn’t that hysterical to think about? Remember when you wanted to have change in your pocket or purse in case you needed to make a phone call?

We have land lines being replaced by cell towers and fiber optic. In thinking about my message I remembered going to the library to do research for school or looking at the family’s World Books or encyclopedias. And the World Book would send out a yearly book – one single book – with the latest new information.

Now it’s all found on the internet. And information is expanding at record rates. A weekday edition of The New York Times contains more information than the average person was likely to come across in a lifetime in 17th century England.

Think about music: 33-1/3 rpm; 45’s; eight track tapes; cassettes; cds; mp3 players. And cameras. Anyone have a brownie? And for the young people, no I am not talking about a dessert from a Pillsbury box mix. Remember Polaroid where you pulled the picture out and counted. How would that fly now in this world of great impatience and got to have it now.

Last summer my husband and a family friend and I went to Philadelphia for the Princess Diana exhibit. With our ticket we were given an audio tour . I was familiar with audio equipment where you saw a number on the wall and you matched it on your cassette and the audio played. We were handed a little gadget that I was unfamiliar with. It was a sort of IPod where you stroke the screen of the IPOD as you moved from room to room to reach the correct audio. I just didn’t get it and I just wasn’t making it happen. I remember standing in the first gallery with this IPOD thinking: this is the moment that life passes me by.

As the group of people we had entered into the first gallerywith, including my husband and friend marched forward in unison with advanced technology, I was standing there totally bewildered and feeling lost. My knowledge of audio tours in museums was obsolete.

Somehow by God’s grace, my husband and friend picked up that I wasn’t keeping the beat and came to my rescue. They gave me a crash course on the spot. I have to be honest, I limped my way through the exhibit.

I am not condemning advancements. However, I want to point out that when something becomes obsolete and there is no longer a use for it. It is thrown away. And even if we throw something away, the energy is still on the planet with us. There is an unbelievable amount of energy of items that are in dumps and landfills. Islands are being filled in our oceans that are made up of discarded trash. Just as we are touched by the beauty of the mountains of nature made by God. We are touched by the energy from man made mountains of trash and discarded items.

Just as if you never let fresh air into your house, you would eventually be impacted by the staleness or mustiness of the air, we are being impacted by the energy, vibration and consciousness of being a toss-away; throwaway, get the latest model, get the fastest speed , and newest technology nation.

When we replace something with the newest version, what happens to what came before. I don’t think we as a race have figured that out. And so we have piles of energy on the planet that radiates the message “out of sight/out of mind” – and it just doesn’t work that way.

In my booklet Angelic Feng Shui I share, out of sight doesn’t mean it’s out of your energy field.

On a deep level, our soul is asking us to stop and reflect if we truly need to always upgrade to the latest, newest, cutting edge, fastest model. One of the keys to peaceful living is to live simply. Living with a knowingness that what we have is enough. As the song says, we’ve got the sun in the morning and the moon at night and I’m all right.

I am encouraging all of us to ask ourselves: when is enough, enough?

When we bring more stuff into our homes, we are bringing what we think we are collecting and gathering because of a need that is being fulfilled; however in time the stuff will collect our energy and gather from us our inner peace.

As a spiritual counselor the one statement I have heard repeated from people is: I am overwhelmed.

According to a survey, 43 percent of adults suffer adverse health effects as a result of stress and feeling overwhelmed. 75 percent to 90 percent of adult visits to primary care physicians are precipitated by stress-related problems.

We are stress-out, overwhelmed, overcommitted, overstuffed. It’s time to stop and take a look at what we are filling our lives with.

Storage facilities have popped up in our communities to handle the continuous increasing of stuff. Not only our homes but the days of our lives are stuffed to overflowing.

There’s a whole new career paths that has been created: professional organizers, personal shoppers, meal preparation companies. These activities aren’t negative; however it is the result that we are desperately trying to find a way to get everything done that we have conditioned ourselves that we absolutely must do. So we are hiring people to help us do that.

Have you noticed how many magazines are featuring front page headlines that they have articles on getting organized, find balance, remove the clutter, managing your time? Oh yes, we are an overwhelmed nation.

Years ago I remember hearing a talk given byJohn Robbins, an heir to the Baskin Robbins fortune. John walked away from the family riches and he made this statement to his family: He was choosing to live simply so others on the planet could simply live. John is the author of the book Diet for the New America. I remember John telling the story that his family was angry about his decision to go out on his own and live this life of simplicity. The rift created a situation where father and son didn’t speak. Years later John’s father would suffer a heart attack. His father survived the heart attack. The father was told by his physican that he had to change his eating habits and recommended the book Diet for the New America.

So I suggesting that we consider the wisdom in the words “less is more”. Willa Cather wrote: Men travel faster now, but I do not know if they go to better things. Let’s live better with less.

Let’s transform our lives by contemplating the Buddhist wisdom: You can never get enough of what you don’t really need.

For everything we buy, let’s first ask ourselves, do we really need it?

Mary Carolomagno writes in her book Secrets of Simplicity:
Get comfortable with the idea of using, not amassing.
Use the pieces you have instead of buying multiples or replacing with a different model.
Love what you have.

Finally, I know that we are living in a time where every day new names are being created to identify health challenges. If you don’t feel ill, just watch television and one of the commercials is certain to hit something that is out of balance in you. Just as the younger generation has created a code language of abbreviation in texting to allow for faster communication, you will notice that the pharmaceutical industry comes up with short abbreviations to describe everything and anything that could possibly be wrong with us.

Well, I am going to take the liberty of giving a name to an in balance that I have noticed going on in the world. I am not going to abbreviate it; I am just going to share with you the name. I call it Sabbath Deficiency Syndrome. I am a firm believer that God was giving us a big clue when in the book of Genesis we read how on the 7th day God rested.

In his book, Sabbath: Restoring the Sacred Rhythm of Rest, Wayne Muller writes these beautiful words, “The Sabbath rocks us and holds us until we remember who we are.”

I think we have forgotten who we are and we fill our lives with so much stuff that there’s no time or space to spend with God; there’s no time and get to knows ourselves as God knows us. The fourth of the Ten Commandments is Remember the Sabbath and keep it holy.

It’s important to have time and space for sabbatical experience – a commemoration of the seventh day of rest God took after creating the world.

Many people work demanding jobs; full time jobs and adding on evenings and weekends. We may be a nation that is rich in stuff however we are truly impoverished in spirituality. We are burned out in so many ways.

Just like the closets and basements and attics of our homes, we are overloaded and we are feeling stressed and added to that is the impact of being obsolete. The obsolete energy adds the pressure that no matter how fast we go, we won’t be able to keep up and feeling that pressure we attempt to go faster, do more – just have some semblance of keeping up.

I feel we have an epidemic of quite frankly being out of our divine minds. Albert Einstein said, I want to know God’s thoughts; everything else is detail. It’s time to take sabbath time to commune with God and get to know what God was thinking when God thought of us.

I am encouraging all of us to incorporate the concept of Sabbath time, sacred rest time into our lives. Days away; time out; Time out from pressures and demands. Let yourself catch your spiritual breath and be alone with God.

Give yourself the gift of doing nothing time.
Visit with friends.
Eat regular, healthy meals.
Get enough sleep
Take naps.
Get out and enjoy nature.
Have a special place where you connect with your Higher Self.

Thoreau spent time in the woods at Walden Pond. Thoreau wrote: If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer.

Maybe it’s time we stop living life at the zoom, zoom pace and live God paced lives.
Make time to be alone. Take time to pull back and reflect. Relaxing time. Rest time.
Play time.

For me Sabbath time is – God gazing time; when I spend time looking into the eyes of the Beloved; my focus is God.

A book that has been extremely healing and helpful is Seven Sacred Pauses from which I share the seven daily pauses and prayer times which enable us to catch our spiriritual breath:

• The Night Watch pause is a pre-dawn pause that calls us to vigilance, deep listening, mystery and silence, surrender and trust.

• The Awakening Hour pause at dawn celebrates the new day with praise and resurrection, joy and delight.

• The Blessing Hour pause is a middle of the morning pause that challenges us to heed the coming of the Spirit and to bring breathe and blessing to our work.

• The Hour of Illumination pause, at midday, is a time to nourish our bodies, recommit to our service of others, and to pray for peace.

• The Wisdom Hour pause, at mid afternoon, invites us to reflect on the impermanence and the graciousness of life.

• The Twilight Hour pause, as evening begins, calls us to slow down as we make the transition from work to home and express praise and gratitude.

• The Great Silence pause , the last hour before sleep, is when we review the day, ask for forgiveness and strength, and surrender ourselves to God.

I would like to close this blog with a blessing for you. May 2010 be a year of catching our spiritual breath and pausing to be one with God and one with God’s peace.

Love, Jayne

CATCH A GLIMPSE OF A FAIRY

2010-04-27T09:59:00.000-07:00

Dear Angelic Blog Buddies:

This is my SPRING 2010 NEWSLETTER.

Hello to everyone. I actually began this newsletter in March and here’s what I wrote at that time:

I am writing this newsletter to you as a healing for myself and for all who share with me the longing for spring to arrive, flowers to bloom, butterflies to be flitting, and to be able to be outside with the nature devas.

I am so ready for the vibrant colors and energies of spring. This afternoon as I began working on this newsletter, a little bird came to the window sill by my computer and was chirping happily. I stopped what I was doing and allowed myself to receive the sound healing this little fella was giving to my soul.

As Chuck and I pulled out of our driveway, we noticed a flock of geese that were sitting on the banks of a farmer’s pond. The pond is still frozen over. We had 60 degree weather today and even after a number of days of high 50’s and 60 degree weather, there are still snow banks and pond ice that seems to be refusing to melt. I could feel the geese longing to be able to be in the water again.

Because of the intense weather that we have experienced this winter, I am encouraging everyone to do an energy clearing visualization for your property. This Energy Clearing Visualization is from Cindy McGonagle’s book GARDEN NOTES. Cindy has given me permission to include it in my newsletter and she also was kind enough to share the recipe for Focus Tea.

Her website is: www.cindymcgonagle.com – where her books are available for purchase.

“This is an exercise to send love and light to our planet Earth.

Walk around your property visualizing a white light connecting each of the four corners that make up your perimeter. If you can't physically walk around then at least walk around your home or apartment building in a clockwise manner.

Next visualize a central point of your property with a beam of golden energy extending from the heavens down to center of the Earth. Call in Archangel Raphael, Archangel Michael, Archangel Gabriel and Archangel Uriel to assist you in sending the white light from each of the corners of your property to create two pyramids one pointing up the other pointing down.

Call in the nature devas of your property to help you send love and light into the pyramids of light by doing this the anchored energy becomes a field of love and will radiate out from its central core in all directions and the Earth is a little lighter and less dense and your home is balanced.

This is especially good to do when first moving into your property.

A tea Fairy Queen D wishes to share with your readers is called;
Focus Tea, (from Queen D's Fairy Recipe Book) made with equal parts, basil, lemon thyme and lemon balm. Hopefully you can grow the herbs in your container or herb garden.

This tea is great for helping you stay on task until you complete your task and then helps you move forward to complete your next task.

It helps you stay focused!!” – a big thank you to Cindy

It’s almost the end of the April when I am back to writing my Spring 2010 Newsletter. The inspiration I would like to share in this newsletter is simply to catch a glimpse of the fairies.

I often have people tell me they want to see the fairies. My reply is to encourage the individual to first catch a glimpse of a fairy. First catch a glimpse of the face of nature.

Take time to look for the face of nature in your flowers in your garden, in trees that surround your h ome. Numerous artists use the technique of creating works of art where if you look from a different angle you see something new revealed, i.e. you think you are looking at a winter scene of woods and then you realize there are powerful beings standing with the trees.

Allow yourself to be the sensitive being you are. Be sensitive to your environment. To the sounds. The energies. The colors. The subtle movement and vibration.

Frederick Langbridge wrote in A Cluster of Quiet Thoughts : “Two men look out through the same bars. One sees the mud, and one the stars.”

It’s all about reflection. One of my favorite definitions of the word reflection is “to shine back”. What are we reflecting to nature? Are we shining back? Are we reflecting back sacredness and respect?

Here’s a blessing to say as your walk through your home and your surrounding property; in fact, you can say this blessing in any environment:

Oh Spirit of Place
Help me to make this space (home) a
Pleasant and positive place to love
Where Nature is at home
Where Love is at home
Where Compassion is at home

If you have a garden or acreage, always leave a small wild area that is not cultivated or disturbed for the fairies. You can build a little altar out of leaves and twigs. You can use this space as a place for quiet communion with the fairies. Stand in this space and express your sincere desire to love and support the nature kingdom.

Plan and design gardens with plants that attract wildlife

Build a small fairy house of materials of nature. Many traditions build spirit houses as an invitation to share space with spirit. A fairy house is a sign to the fairies that you wish to live in harmony and balance with nature.

It’s important that we recognize that our own physical bodies need to live in harmony and balance, too, with our own elemental energies.
Last week during my weekly spiritual development class at Angel Heights, I gave the class members a breakdown of the elements in their natal birth chart. It is important that we recognize that we are the energies of the four elements: air, fire, earth and water and all derive from the fifth element either. By being conscious of the elements in your natal birth chart, you can recognize elements that you might need to supplement in your life experience.

For a moment, imagine that your natal chart is mirroring to you the conditions of the planet of you. What if you realized that your planet had no fire? It would make you conscious and aware of the importance of doing things in your life that produced light experience, warmth/healing experiences; transformative experiences. The lack of the fire element is not a negative. It simply means that you have come into this physical body experience to more strongly embrace your fire identity. Your natal chart is saying: Hey, fire is invisible. Do something to make it visible.”

As we support our own elemental energies in becoming visible, this supports our efforts in having a visible experience with the devas, elementals, nature spirits.

Invisibility changing to visibility may be a slow, subtle experience. Remember, the first fairy contact may be one that is indirect. Do you remember when you were first touched by spirit during a meditation? Didn’t you feel like a fly had landed on your face? I know I did. This is also true with experiences with the fairies in nature. It can be the brush of the wind on your face that feels like a gentle touch. As the fairy beings come near to you, you may feel yourself wanting to cry for no reason.

You may pick up the fragrance of a flower that is not around you, yet you smell the flower. You may hear music, singing, chimes ringing and there appears to be nothing around you.

You may notice the movement of trees and bushes without the wind blowing. You may catch a glimpse of something moving out the corner of your eye. You may notice that the dew in the morning has a special hue or color to it, i.e. golden dew.

I recently “rediscovered” a quotation I had saved by Terri Windling. I absolutely love it.

We must remember that the hero’s journey is one that is never really done. For all of us who emerged from that dark forest, there are times we must head back into the trees – only now we’ve a different role to play. This time we must be the good witch, the fairy godmother or the animal guide: the one who waits by the side of the road, ready to light the way for those young heroes who struggle on behind us.”

Springtime is finally here and I am doing my happy dance with my fairy friends. I am celebrating that life is a hero’s journey and we are truly good witches, earth angels, fairy godmothers, and spirit guides sharing sacred space with all the members and kingdoms of the family of God.

It is my joy to share with you 101 ways to be a friend to the Fairy Folk and experience Fairy Fellowship in your life.

1. Believe in fairies.

2. Read fairy tales from around the world.

3. Use the word “flow” in your daily dialogue. Fairies feel comfortable with people who flow with life; people who let their life force flow.

4. Be open to seeing fairies with peripheral vision (from corner of your eyes). This is fairy focus. If you notice circles of light, you are observing fairies dancing. Fairies love to swirl, whirl and twirl.

5. Keep your mind and imagination open. You develop fairy vision with your imagination.

6. Recognize many invisible worlds envelope your visible world. When you’ve lost “track of time,” and find your mind blank as to where you’ve been or what you’ve been doing, you may have been wisped away to a pixie playground. Without wisping in life, you can wither in life.

7. Celebrate flowers! Love flowers; in fact, a love for all living things is a bridge between humans and fairies. Fairies love bluebells, pansies and daisies to name a few fairy favorites.

8. Honor the importance of childhood. Children are closer to fairy folk than adults. Fairies nurture childhood spirit.

ORCHID ABUNDANZA

2010-03-29T05:11:00.000-07:00

Dear Angelic Blog Buddies:

Perhaps you share a memory with me of seeing your very first orchid as a corsage. I remember my Mom wearing a beautiful lavendar orchid corsage on Mother's Day. Because that was the first orchid I had ever seen, and would be the only type of orchid I saw in my childhood years, that is what an orchid was to me.

That particular type of orchid is of the genus Cattleya (KAt-lee-ah) and it is often called the Corsage Orchid. Cattleyas are among the most commonly grown orchids.

There are some 30,000 species of orchids growing wild across this planet.
The word orchis, from which the whole family received its name, was first used for this purpose by the Greek philosopher Theophrastus, a pupil of Aristotle. Theophrastus is sometimes referred to as the father of botany. In his manuscript Enquiry into Plants, orchid (which means tetis) referred to the underground tuberous roots of the Mediterranean orchid, which are similar in shape to testicles.

I learned of the mystical message of orchids in reading what Ted Andrews wrote about the orchid in his book The Magical Name: "Orchid is a name and flower with ties to the satyrs of mythology, some of whom were teachers of the healing arts. In mythology, Orchid was born of a nymph who had been seduced by a satyr. Alignment with this essence affects sexuality...this is a flower for those wishing to manifest energies that will force a development of positive expression of sexual energies."

Ted expanded his orchid insights in his book Nature Speaks: "In China, an "orchid room" is the dwelling place of a young girl or the bedroom of a young married couple - its significance having mostly to do with its scents. Orchids are the largest family in the plant kingdom...Wherever orchids grow, you will always find nature spirits, elves, faeries and even some of the fantastic creatures and beings associated with the faerie realm...this flower and its environment is often watched over by nymphs and/or satyrs."

In 1993 I came across a set of cards called Angelic Messenger Cards by Meredith L. Young-Sowers. The photography was by Carol Duke. The cards are still available as a newly revised edition. The messages are wonderful and the spectacular photographs are of individual flowers. The Abundance card features a photograph of an orchid of the Paphlopedium or Lady Slipper genus. They are called this because their lip is shaped like a pouch or toe of a slipper.

I agree that orchids are messengers of abundance; and for this reason I called this blog: ORCHID ABUNDANZA. I have always been inspired by the angels to share the message that each of us has a divine masculine energy inside of us; and a divine feminine energy inside of us. The holy union of these two energies is a divine experience that results in the birthing of blessings and miracles. We are walking, talking, breathing holy of holies and within the sacred space of our I AM presence there is divine conception occurring. We can ask ourselves each morning: What do I want to conceive today? The word conceive means to become pregant with. It originates from a Latin word which means to thoroughly grasp. What vision or idea do you want to thoroughly grasp today?

Green Hope Farm Flower Essences offer various Orchid essences. Two that I would like to recommend you consider are: Fragrant Orchid. Molly Sheehan came upon an abundant colony of this orchid on Omey and received this message; "My wisdom needs to go out into the world. I try to share my wisdom generously in the gift of my perfume however, I AM glad to have a greater opportunity to be of service. I know this will strike you as a leap, but my essence is HOPE and that is the vibration I bring as a Flower essence. I am deeply attuned to the Fourth Ray and Angel Gabriel. I do not need to be applied or ingested to be of service in your life. Holding a bottle of my Essence will be enough. I will bring my beacon of white light via this bottle of my Flower Essence, just as I stand as a wand of this light on the rocky slopes where you found me." The Fragrant Orchid wants us to thoroughly grasp that we are ourselves divine essence of Hope. We are earth angels of HOPE.

Molly shares in her guide book that "there were so many orchids on Omey, in the Burren and on the coast of Ireland in general that it required care not to step on any of them."

I also recommend White Orchid from the Burren of Ireland. This orchid has given us this message, "Just as with the Fragrant Orchid Flower Essence, I work on the Fourth ray, the White or Crystal ray While the Fragrant Orchid Flower Essence sings a vibration of Hope, my vibrational strength is clarity of intention. In any endeavor, I help you to see and implement the tasks at hand with a motivation worthy of the task and a better sense of divine purpose. I AM a big picture Essence and will help you get clear on the most important spriritual tasks in your life, as well as help you follow through on these tasks with the least personality baggage." The White Orchid inspires us to thoroughly grasp we are part of the big picture.

You can order these essences as www.greenhopeessences.com

For 21 years I worked as an administrative assistant to a man who was a marketing/promotion director for a number of shopping malls. My work included helping him develop events/entertainment activities at the malls. I was responsible for Santa arrivals, Christmas parades, Easter Bunnies hopping down the bunny trail of the mall and Easter egg hunts just to name a few of the many events that were staged at the malls. For one of our mall clients I helped to negotiate an orchid society staging an annual orchid show at the mall. It was a sight of sheer beauty to walk into the mall and see table after table of exquisite orchids. The orchids were breathtaking to behold. I loved the passion for beauty of the individuals who grew the orchids in their homes and their openness and willingness to help beginner orchid growers.

I have wanted to attend Longwood Gardens International Orchid Show and finally made it happen this past Friday. I staged my arrival at the very beginning of the 3-day international orchid show, and was delighted to see as I was entering the conservatory, the judges had completed their tasks, and were heading off to a celebration lunch. It brought back sweet memories of my days of being the organizer of the mall orchid shows.

Longwood Gardens titled their show: Orchid Extravaganza. The actual Extravaganza was staged from January 23 to March 31 with the International Orchid show and Sale being held March 26, 27, and 28. I am sharing the dates in case you want to put this idea of attending in the back of your mind for next year.

If you are a reader who lives near Longwood Gardens (1001 Longwood Road/Kennett Square, PA 19348 - www.longwoodgardens.org), I highly recommend the experience. As Longwood describes it: Immerse yourself in a dazzling world of orchids as Longwood transforms its Conservatory into a lush oasis showcasing the divas of the planet world. Colorful orchids drape from walls, flow from pedestals and adorn beds throughout Longwood's rewnowed Conservatory."

That description beautifully describes what I witnessed on Friday. Plus I got to know more intimately a new genus of orchid; well, it was new for me. The genus is Oncidium (on-SID-ee-um). The American Orchid Society describes Oncidium as:an extraordinarily large and diverse New world genus with an equally diverse number of habitats. Oncidiums may originate anywhere from sea level in the tropics to the high elevations of the Andes.

For me they are little dancing fairies. Wherever they were in the show, I felt a tug of energy to visit them and photograph them. These orchids convey the innocence and delight of little joy baby faces. I found myself beaming and laughing over their adorable presence. Their flowers are truly little fairy beings and the photographs I took of these precious flowers are magical. And the amazing thing was that they wanted me to take more pictures. I would click my digital camera and then hear them say, "more". I heard and felt a constant message of them saying "more" and "more of me"..."take more pictures of me".

The flowers have a shape that is the appearance of fairies with arms outstretched in joy. They convey a wide-openness to life. I am sharing a link of orchid photographs for you to see the Oncidium fairies:

www.floridanaturepictures.com/orchids/orchid.html

It was only after I left the show that I came to realize why they were calling to me. God had guided me to them to receive an orchid healing. I am asking everyone who reads my blog to keep my husband, Chuck, in your prayers. In 2002 Chuck received a heart stent. Just recently he started experiencing shortness of breath. He cannot walk long distances because of the shortness of breath and also hip joint problems. Because of this problem, he didn't want to walk the grounds of Longwood; and he wasn't open to using a scooter. I am happy to report, that a healing that did occur since last Friday is that I have finally gotten him to agree that in the future he will use a scooter for places he wants to visit. I feel joyous over that healing.

Chuck is under the care of a wonderful Johns Hopkins heart doctor. There have been a lot of tests and bloodwork going on over this past month.

Chuck will be having a chemical stress test at Hopkins on April 8th and it will determine how the stent and arteries are working. Chuck cannot have a physical stress test because he has some hip pain at this time, too. Even though Chuck and I both know God is guiding us, and we have a great team of doctors, there is of course concern over his current state of health and what is ahead.

The angels wanted me to buy an Oncidium at Longwood on Friday. When I went to buy one, the seller told me that this wouldn't be a good first orchid to buy. Because the seller is a master Orchid grower, I followed her advice.

I am admitting to you here that I really blew it. Yes, the individual is a master orchid grower; however, the ultimate Master Grower of All was guiding me. The plant might have been out of my league, but not God's. I didn't listen. I didn't buy the Oncidium.

What I now realize and sheepishly share with you, is that I wouldn't be the one truly growing it. I would of course be the human steward and guardian; but the true gardeners would be God's angels guding me how to care for this plant. They wanted this joy vibration in our home to help uplift the concern energy that is here over Chuck's health. Remember, how I shared with you that I couldn't stop smiling and beaming and photographing the fairy baby faces? You've heard the statement: It's just what the doctor ordered. Well, the Oncidium was just what God was attempting to prescribe for me for helping us through this health challenge.

Needless to say, I will now be looking for an Oncidium to welcome into our hearts and home. In closing this blog I simply share something I know you already know: God is so good. God guides us to what we need. And heaven's greatest blessing is that God doesn't give up on us even when we see the message; hear the message and just plain choose not to get the message.

Angelic Blessings of God's Never-Ending Love,
Jayne

ANOINTING

2010-03-08T14:06:00.000-08:00

Dear Angelic Blog Buddies:

A few years ago on a Saturday afternoon, I was doing classes and private readings in a bookstore called Spark of Spirit in College Park, Maryland. While I was inbetween appointments and browsing the bookstore's shelves, a woman who was also browsing remarked, "Oh,good. My book is here." Being curious I asked the woman the name of the book she had written. She shared with me that it wasn't a book she had written; rather it was a book she loved so much that she considered it her book. She pulled from the shelf Dr. David Stewart's Healing Oils of the Bible.

I know all of you have had divine appointments with books. You have had a book cross you path that is life changing. That is how I feel about Dr. Stewart's Healing Oils of the Bible. As the woman held Dr. Stewart's book out to show me, I felt I was receiving a blessing from the energy of the book. Needless to say, I bought the book and the information from the book continues to be a blessing in my life. I love telling everyone about the brilliance of Dr. Stewart's research, teaching, writing, etc. I love sharing my enthusiasm for anointing.

The book brought the Bible to life in a new way for me through sharing knowledge about the ancient practice of anointing. I literally saw the Bible with new eyes. For example, Moses, following God's instructions, asked the elders of Israel to sacrifice a lamb and use a branch of hyssop to apply the blood of the lamb to the door posts of their homes. This was the first Passover. God's instructions to Moses were to have the elders strike the lintel and door posts with the hyssop. This would have bruised the hyssop leaves and as a result released the scent of its oil. The powerful fragrance of hyssop was part of the ritual that caused the Angel of Death to pass over the Israelites' homes that evening. When you smell the fragrance of Hyssop, you connect with the very first Passover. Hyssop is recognized for repeling negativity.

I learned of the important role that essential oils played in the lives of Biblical people and the healing power of these oils. The book introduced me to The Twelve Oils of Ancient Scripture. It inspired me to continue reading and researching anointing, and as a result I was inspired by spirit to teach a class on the Sacred Art of Anointing, which is one of my favorite classes to teach. I just taught the class a few weeks ago at the wonderful Winfield Holistic Center and it absolutely delighted me to see the class participants get as excited about anointing oils as I am.

Right after I purchased and read Dr. Stewart's book, I wanted to learn more about about the healing oils of the Bible and so I went to Dr. Stewart's website and looked for classes being offered. His organization - CARE Ministries - offers a multi-day program where participants receive hands-on training in healing oils of the Bible, Raindrop Anointing Technique, Essential Oil Chemistry and other topics. I remember scanning the schedule of the training and the locations for the immediate classes were all in Europe. Then my eye caught a location in the USA: Easton, Maryland, which is an hour and a half drive from our house. I signed up for the weekend experience and was truly blessed by the indepth teaching shared that weekend. What a fantastic weekend of non-stop inspiration about essential oils. Because of being inspired by books, classes, my own research, I am now a huge believer in the power of anointing and wanted to share that enthusiasm with you in this blog.

The art of anointing was practiced by ancient Mesopotamians, Egyptians, Syrians
Persians, and Hebrews.

Anointing is the sacred act of touching with oil. An individual can be anointed by someone or anoint themselves. Groups can be anointed; sacred objects; homes,etc.

Anointing signifies a sacred connection to God is being made. It is the coming together of the physical (the body being touched with the oil) and the spiritual (the sacredness and holy vibration of the oil being used).

It is the healing power of the divine touching our lives through the anointing blessing. It is a sign of opening our lives to being blessed by God's goodness.

Anointing oil was important in Jesus’ ministry. Spikenard is the oil that was used by Mary of Bethany in anointing Jesus. Jesus defended her when the disciples grumbled about the cost of the anointing. At that time, a household might only have one or two oils at most and they were greatly prized for their fragrance and healing properties. The oil was used by the members of the household in helping heal sickness.

So here is Mary breaking open the alabaster wax jar of costly spikenard and pouring the entire contents over Jesus. At today’s prices it would be well over $30,000

Think of the Gift of the Magi. You spend all you have to show love and appreciation for someone special to you. Jesus even remarked that Mary would be known for what she did for him; i.e. the act of anointing him with oil.

God gave Moses a formula for holy anointing oil shortly after the Israelites began the Exodus trek through the desert. It contained myrrh, cinnamon, calamus and cassia in an olive oil base. This was a specific blend by which the individual would anoint your dwelling, furniture and all who dwell in the home.

Through anointing you are in an essence allowing God to put his seal upon you, i.e. a seal of protection as well as a blessing. Modern science shows these oils contain either an immune stimulating or anti viral compound,so the oil was a protection against disease that the Israelites would experience in the wilderness.

Since the Hebrews were slaves to the Egyptians, they would have been involved in embalming processes and oils for healing and perfumes. In fact our greatest knowledge about oils comes from the Egyptians. Some of their papyrus manuscripts date back as far as 2800 b.c. and share information on how they used herbs and aromatics.

The temples were laboratories where high priests and priestesses would experiment with concoctions to achieve healing goals. They were the first dispensers of aromatics, the first perfumers and first aromatherapists. Once they discovered the preserving effects of essential oils, they perfected the art of embalming.

The body was actually soaked in essential oils and after months was wrapped with gauze impregnated with resin, cedarwood oil and myrrh. So strong is the antiseptic power of these essential oils that Egyptian mummies were well preserved for thousands of years. Oils, still viable, have been found in sealed jars in tombs of ancient Egyptian leaders. For royalty, the embalming process took six months, for a commoner, it could be accomplished in a few hours.

The precious oils of frankincense, myrrh, galbanum, rosemary, hyssop, cassia, cinnamon and spikenard were used extensively for healing and anointing the sick.

In 1817 an ancient Egyptian scroll was found dating back to 1500 b.c. It was a medicinal scroll and mentioned over 800 herbal prescriptions and remedies for disease that they successfully treated and many of the mixtures contained myrrh and honey.

The Greeks learned a great deal from the Egyptians. Herodotus and Democrates visited Egypt during the 4th century b.c. and declared that the Egyptians were masters of the art of perfumery.

Hippocrates – the father of medicine was born in 460 b.c. and he said that the way to health is to have an aromatic bath and a scented massage every day. Not a bad idea.

He recognized that burning aromatic substances offered protection against contagious diseases.

In Aesculapius and Aphrodite temples, healing oils were dispensed by priestesses for all kinds of ailments.

The first real treatise on what we would in our present day identify as aromatherapy was written by Theophrastus who lived 372 to 285 b.c. His work is entitled: Concerning Odors (catchy title) and discusses the effects of fragrances on the mind

Rosewater was one of the perfumes the Crusaders brought back from the East.

The Arabian philosopher and physician Avicenna who lived in 10th century wrote hundreds of books. He wrote the Canon of Medicine and this was used in medical schools for 500 years. In it, he mentions essential oils. His first book was on the beneficial effects of the rose,

Rose to this day is one of the most popular scents and it has the highest MHz frequency.

Hildegard of Bingen, a Benedictine abbess, wrote extensively about herbal remedies, and oils. In fact her work is now being researched in depth because she combined the healing powers of herbs, crystals and gemstones, and essential oils. She is recognized as an authority on essential oils and herbs.

In Ecclesiastes we read:
The Lord hath created medicines out of the earth and the sensible will not despise them.

The ancient Hebrews used oils as body perfumes to fragrance their clothes and bed linens, to deter pests, and women used bundles of myrrh and other aromatics around their necks as a long-lasting and effective deodorant.

The Song of Solomon is an exotic book of poetry that speaks of the beauty of personal fragrances. To be anointed with sacred oil was a sign of great favor.
Whenever you apply perfume, you are in an essence anointing yourself. Maybe we use it to be attractive to others, but the Bible teaches that fragrances were used by people to make themselves pleasing to God and this is a spiritual practice we can incorporate into our lives to raise our spiritual vibration through the frequency of essential oils.

The psalms speak of oils of gladness and joy.

In the Talmud 70 herbs and plants are identified as having healing properties and cures.

The Book of Jubilees written in first century b.c. tells of angels revealing remedies to Noah; these remedies came from the trees, plants and roots.

Anointing is a sacred act and a healing act. The nose is wired differently than the other four senses. Our nose carries molecules directly into the emotional center of the brain where traumatic memories are stored and essential oils release repressed emotions.

Most of the Biblical aromatic oils contain phenylpropanoids, sesquiterpenes and/or monoterpenes. These three constituents are unique to essential oils and have the intelligence and capability of cleasing the receptor sites of our cells (phenols), erasing incorrect information in the DNA cellular memory (sesquiterpenes) and reprogramming God's original plan (correct information) into the cellular level and facilitating a permanent and sometimes, instaneous healing.

There is another dimension of the healing powers of essential oils. All essential oils carry electrical charges which are healing and healthful. The frequencies of essential oils are between 52 to 320 MHz. The highest of all known substances is rose oil at 320 MHz. So when you hear the message: Stop and smell the roses, it not only means to stop to take time to appreciate nature; it also means that by smelling the rose's high vibrational energy, the electrical charge will go through your nose to your brain and you'll receive a powerful healing of love. Isn't God wonderful?!

Measurements on the human body found that a healthy person has a frequency of around 62 to 68 MHz. When a person's frequency dips to 58 MHz, cold symptoms can manifest. Flu symptoms start at 57 MHz. Cancer can begin when the body falls below 42 MHz. The process of dying begins at 25 MHz and goes zero at death.

One of the most important healing modalities of the essential oils is their ability to lift our bodily frequencies to levels where healing can occur and disease cannot exist.

The frequencies of the oils are affected by thoughts, too. Prayer raises the frequency levels by 15 MHz. You can see how powerful essential oils are joined with prayer.

I'm writing this blog because I want to inspire everyone with the message that it is time to return to our senses. It's time to reclaim the sacred tradition of the beautiful art and act of anointing.

If you have an anointing oil, take time in your life to place a drop in your palm and gently rub your hands together. Then inhale the beautiful fragrance. You can gently touch your third eye; or touch your heart. I love to use Young Living's JOY oil. The Bible speaks of oils of joy and gladness. With all that's going on in the world, we can all use a little touch of joy. Use anointing oils to lighten your heart and uplift your soul. And once you have anointed yourself, embrace your divine identity as a walking, talking, breathing blessing of God.

Angelic Blessings, Jayne

HOLY ICE

2010-02-18T09:02:00.000-08:00

Dear Angelic Blog Buddies:

Some of you may know that my husband, Chuck and I live in Upperco, Maryland with our two Jack Russell Terriers, Riot and Pinky. We live in Baltimore County, about a half hour north of Baltimore City. Our area of Maryland can boast that we received more snow this winter than any other area in the entire USA, including Anchorage, Alaska. We had more than 80 inches of snow and we are still dealing with the snow. We have what looks like mountains of snow around our home.

Living in the midst of this immense accumulation of snow and ice, observing glistening icicles hanging from homes and buildings, it inspired me to write a blog about my love of crystals. During the days that we were snowbound at home, I was inspired by the angels to make abundant use of the time in organizing my crystals and realign myself with their energies.

The word crystal is a derivative of crystallos which is Greek for ice. The ancients believed that crystals were frozen light from heaven or holy ice.

I love crystals for their beauty, powerful healing and blessing energies and divine sacredness. I truly believe they are gifts given to us from Divine Mother Earth to support our spiritual growth and feeling of oneness. Some minerals are gifts from beyond the earth, and I love them abundantly, too. I encourage people to have a meteorite stone, and it can be a very small one. Meteorites help us to remember to sometimes think beyond this world and be conscious that there are dimensions inside us that are truly connected with other universes. Chuck and I enjoy watching the new Meteorite Men program on TV

Crystals are powerful healers. In 3rd century BC, Theophrastus wrote about the medicinal values of gems. And Medieval Europe's consciousness awakening to the healing powers of crystals was grreatly influenced by Pliny's writings in the first century about the power of crystals.

Medicine pouches worn by Native Americans contain fetish animals carved from minerals. If you are familiar with Melody's book Love is in the Earth, you know that she makes reference to crystals worn on The Priest's Breastplate which is referenced in the Bible in the Book of Exodus. I have done a lot of research around the twelve crystals mentioned in the Book of Revelation and The New Jerusalem and have found that this information has helped me on my spiritual path.

Since my childhood I have had a deep love for rocks, stones, gems, minerals, and crystals. In thinking about this blog, I was sharing this morning with Chuck at breakfast, that a few years back I led a week long class at a metaphysical conference held on a college campus. My class was held in one of the geology department's classrooms. The room was filled with rocks. I was in sheer bliss being able to teach in this environment.

Some of you have participated on trips I have organized with the angels' inspirations to various countries, i.e. my Angel Tours. On every trip tour members always were on the lookout for rocks that could be brought home. I remember one of the tour guides asking one of our group members if she had rocks in her bag, because it was very heavy for him to pickup. She commented that in fact she did have an abundance of rocks inside the bag.

If you are like me, you have experienced that you really don't find crystals; they find you. I remember being in a crystal store in Pittsburgh, PA with my dear friend, Judy and both of our husbands were with us, too. I love visiting Judy because she is a crystal wizard woman. She's a walking, talking, breathing encyclopedia of information about crystals. As we entered the store, I immediately saw a spectacularly beautiful large apophyllite which comes from Pune, India. Apophyllite is great for making conscious connection with the spirit realm. I felt myself drawn into the crystal. It was breath takingly beautiful.

I was immediately enchanted by the crystal's energy and having a love experience with the apophyllite but the price tag caused me to keep on walking. As I continued walking beyond the apophyllite, I heard the crystal say to me with its energy: "Come back here; I am what you came for. I am the one who called you to this store. The angels want me to assist you in your service. You are not to leave here without buying me."

When I get that clear of a message from the spirit world whether it's from the angels or from crystals, I know it's a waste of energy and time to pretend I didn't hear it. It's now in my court to make it happen. So I immediately took my husband, Chuck over to the apophyllite, showed him the price tag, and said: I am supposed to buy this crystal. It's going to assist my angelic service." Thank God Chuck is so open to my angelic service and messages I receive from spirit. He agreed and the apophyllite is now making cosmic connections easier for all who sit inside the Michael Pyramid in our home. And I also want to thank God that I don't get messages that often from expensive crystals.

A similar incident happened when Chuck and I were at the New Visions Bookstore Expo in York, Pa. I had been sharing with Chuck that I was being inspired by the angels to have a piece of amethyst in the room which is used as a classroom in our home. We had looked at what seemed like a zillion pieces of amethyst, most of which were in the cathedral or dome shape. We felt like Goldilocks. The amethysts were beautiful; just not right for the service the angels wanted.

Well, as I mentioned we were in York at the expo where we had a booth where I did readings and sold my books, etc. The expo was two days - a Saturday and Sunday. Right next to us was the fantastic booth of Rocks of Ages. On Sunday morning, Mary White, the owner of Rocks of Ages, brings out from underneath her table this absolutely amazing amethyst well which she had not brought out before. It was as if out of the blue this incredible amethyst well appears. Chuck and I looked at each other and said, "That's it." Mary shared that when she was at her home she was told to take the well with her. She hadn't planned on bringing it; however, she was told that the well needed to go to the York expo with her. On Sunday morning she had received a message to bring the amethyst well out into the open, and just as she did, Chuck and I were both guided by spirit to turn our attention to her booth.

The well is now in the center of the classroom where visitors to our home are invited to place their heart's wishes in the well. It's a prayer well; manifestation well; divine wishing well. The amethyst is an extremely spiritual stone and is wonderful as an ally stone. It teams up with your intentions and goals and becomes a blessed ally to you in making manifestation happen. It helps energize fulfillment of your heart's desires. At the end of the year, I remove all of the prayer notes, heart wishes and release them to spirit through a fire ceremony.

I love teaching my Angels and Crystals class because it gives me the opportunity to share my angelic experiences with crystals and what the inspirations the angels have given me about specific crystals.

Recently the angels have been abuzz about the importance of having our crystals near us. As I shared, I was inspired make use of the snowstorm time to really organize my crystals. I felt like a kid playing with action figures. My relationship with crystals is one of the most joyous of relationships in my life.

As part of my Thursday night weekly spiritual development class, class members draw angel cards for messages from spirit. The Thursday night before the two major snowstorms impacted Maryland, we all drew cards as usual. Prior to drawing the cards, I had been speaking to the group about the same message as I am giving here. Make time for your crystals. Commune with your crystals. Reconnect with your crystals. Spirit gave a heavenly "ditto" to my comments when I personally drew the card that said: Work with Crystals. Don't you just love when that happens?

If there is a stone you would like to use in supporting your alignment to the angelic kingdom, I recommend celestite. Melody shares in her book that celestite can provide access to and transfer of, information from the purity of the angelic realm. I have found in my own personal experience this is true and I have a number of pieces of celestite in our home to support my daily openness to the angelic kingdom. I have celestite in the heavenly blue color and also golden celestite. Sweet blue angelite is also another wonderful crystal to use for angelic communion.

I encourage everyone to reacquaint yourself with your crystals. Give yourself a crystal play day. Gather your crystals together and visit with them. The mineral kingdom members are truly our allies. Open yourself to the beauty, joy and delightfulness of having a conscious relationships with our friends of rock and stone.

Love in abundance, Jayne

BENNY DOG

2010-01-13T03:14:00.001-08:00

Dear Angelic Blog Buddies:

It is through tear filled eyes and with much sadness that I am writing this blog. On Monday, January 4th, 2010 my precious Jack Russell Terrier, Benny, died at 11:18 PM. Benny was 19 years old. Over the past year there were indications that Benny was moving towards heaven. I wrote a blog a few months ago about taking him to the vets for tests and bloodwork and being told to take him home and just keeping doing what I was doing abundantly: loving him.

Because I knew intuitively that the day Benny would be going to heaven was fast approaching, I prayed daily that 3 personal requests be fulfilled. I am so grateful to God that my prayers were answered. The first was that I would be home when it happened. I needed to be here with Benny. I needed to be by Benny's side.

It was Monday evening at 10:45 PM when I was sitting at my computer and I heard Benny yelp in pain. I flew down the kitchen and called to Chuck to come quickly as I knew Benny was dying.

My second and third requests were that Benny not be in any pain and that he transition quickly. Other than the initial yelp of pain, it did not appear that he had any suffering. He was laying on the floor of our kitchen, which was really Benny's condo as he could no longer go up the steps of our house. Because of how we had made the kitchen into Benny's personal abode, it now seems so empty and sterile. We had dog beds all over the floor so that wherever he decided to fall over and sleep, it would be comfy and cozy for him. A day or so before his death, I was watching him sleep and he looked like a little sultan peacefully sleeping in the center of an abundance of plumpy pillows.

After rushing to Benny's side, I found that he was laying down and I laid down beside him and a knowingness and clarity of the finality came over me. Even though his cataract filled eyes could no longer see, he knew I was by his side.

An amazing happening occurred. I was on the floor at the same level as Benny and all of a sudden he jumped up and looked me square in the eyes. His action totally took me by surprise. I even remembered feeling like my breath had been taken away by my surprise of his doing this. In that nano second, Benny's eyes were perfectly clear of cataracts. I felt as if with his energy he was holding my heart and saying to me, "I see you and you see me. We will never lose sight of each other with the eyes of our hearts."

He then laid down and quickly went from rapid earthly breathing that transitioned to slow earthly breathing. Finally there was no earthly breathing; just the knowing he was now breathing in heaven. I held him in my arms for the entire dying experience, rocking him gently, and unceasingly telling him of my love for him.

Benny had been by my side for 16 years. In 1994 I was living alone here at Angel Heights. I felt a huge void in my life and one day realized I needed a dog companion. I sat out to find a dog to rescue. The first two attempts I made resulted in being told that the dogs had just found homes. And then I saw a sign posted in the Upperco Post Office about a male Jack Russell Terrier that needed a home. When I saw Benny, it was love at first sight. I named him Benediction as I knew this dog was a blessing in my life. I called him Benny for short.

Benny came into my life on November 18, 1994. He died at 11:18 PM.

Benny helped me tremendously with the loss of my dear friend, Walt Blatt. At the end of February, 1995 - just two months after Benny came into my life, my friend, Walt Blatt, who was dying of cancer, came to my home to make his transition with the support of hospice. I had converted my living room into a hospice room for Walt. I remember one of the hospice nurses who came to check on Walt, looked around at the angel art and angel collection. The nurse commented that when it was her time she wanted to come to Angel Heights to be surrounded by angels. Benny was one of those angels surrounding Walt with love.

I had brought out a Black and Decker lantern style flashlight and kept it on the floor right beside Walt's recliner, just in case we lost electricity. On the day that Walt died, Benny did something he hadn't done before. He picked up the lantern with his teeth and ran through the house with the lantern. I knew that Benny, an angel with fur, was aware that the transition angels were positioning themselves to help Walt in his dying experience. Light was truly on the move at Angel Heights.

The day before Benny died, Chuck and I went out for a Sunday afternoon dinner in Emmitsburg, Maryland. We enjoyed a delightful, leisurely Sunday meal. I was watching everyone around us as they got their meals, dined and got their receipts. Nothing out of the ordinary was happening. The reason I share this is because after we got our receipt and paid the bill, the waitress came back to our table and handed me a single rose. No one else in the entire restaurant had been given a rose. The waitress said nothing. She just gave me the rose and left. I was thrilled to have a long-stem rose. Chuck and I both continued to comment to each other that we didn't know why it had happened, but it was really a kind gesture for me to receive a beautiful rose.

I truly believe that spirit was behind the gifting of the rose. Many of you who attend spirit message services know that loved ones in heaven very often extend a rose as a sign of love from heaven.

I shared in my book Driving Under the Influence of Angels, that I following Walt's death on March 1, 1995, I had asked the angels for a sign from Walt; a sign that he had arrived safely in heaven. In my mailbox the next day I receive a card with the poem: The Rose that Grows on the Garden Wall. It is a poem that tells of how a rose that once bloomed on one side of a wall had found a crack in the wall and was now growing on the other side of the wall. Additionally, someone had mailed me a cassette of the recording by Bette Midler of the song The Rose.

In November, while having a private consultation with a medium, my Dad, who is in heaven, came through and told me that when it was time for Benny to die, Dad was going to be with me and for me to be assured that Dad would take care of Benny for me. Dad wanted me to know that everyone was in position to receive Benny with open arms and great love and affection. While Dad was alive, he often called Benny his Grand-Dog.

Dad's message in the reading in November, the rose given to me the day before, all were ways that helped me through Benny's death. There is a huge hole in my heart and in our home.

A couple nights ago I was in the kitchen by myself. I heard a little bark and looked around because I thought that Riot, one of my two female Jack Russells, had joined me in the kitchen and was barking for attention. There was no one but me in the kitchen. I knew it was a sweet little hello from heaven from my Benny Dog.

I want to thank everyone who has been so kind in sending Chuck and me sympathy emails and cards. I have created a Benny memorial book and just as your love fills my life, your loving messages have filled the book and have been a huge comfort.

We had Benny cremated and were given his ashes yesterday. I will be having art created from a portion of the ashes. There is a company that uses a small amount of ash to create a beautiful heart. I want to have the heart near me to remind me of Benny's wisdom: We will never lose sight of each other. With the eyes of the heart we will always see each other.

Love in abundance, Jayne

ALL ABOARD TO FAIRYLAND

2009-12-29T08:51:00.001-08:00

Dear Angelic Blog Buddies:

We've all heard about earth changes and pole shifts. Sometimes we imagine such changes may occur due to catastrophies that rock the world as we currently know it. I'm here to share a story that occurred this past month. It was a huge pole shift in my life and the experience was one of the sweetest ever. In fact, every time I think of the incident I just start smiling and thinking to myself: It's happening now. The shift occurred with the simplicity of a comment that was made to me.

My husband, Chuck, and I adore train gardens. We have a truly amazing train garden in our bedroom and keep it up year round. We both would love to miniaturize ourselves and live in this adorable community.

During the holidays we had a free Saturday and while reading our local newspaper, The Carroll County Times, we were delighted that the paper included a list of all the fire departments that had train garden displays. We set out to have a fun filled adventure of seeing a number of the gardens.

At the end of the day, which we topped off by dining in a restaurant that is a remodeled train station (yes, we are a goofy couple), Chuck made the following remark to me. Now before I share Chuck's pole shifting statement, I have to give a little more background information about the fire departments' train gardens.

We saw a lot of train gardens on that Saturday. The gardens were all set up and being run by men and the masculine energy was pretty obvious. The gardens included racetracks with fast running cars, rugged mountains and on one of the mountains was a scene where a plane had crashed into the mountain; houses on fire with fire trucks on the scene putting out the fire. One of the gardens had a huge refinery fire going on. Fast cars. Explosions. Fires. Disasters. Sounds like the making of a script for a guy flick.

Chuck and I are driving home from our train garden adventure day, and out of the blue Chuck says to me, "Wouldn't it be really cool to see a train that goes through a fairyland that is complete with mist and magical beings. An enchanted forest fairy garden." I know the look on my face conveyed what I was experiencing. The poles had shifted.

Chuck went on to say that being married to me for ten years had given him the experience of living in other realities. It has really sensitized him to a lot of stuff; stuff that he was never sensitive to before, including the world of enchantment, magical beings and fairies.

I do, of course, honor the train gardens that were on display because they represent a lot of hours of hard work and kind individuals are sharing their private train collections witht he public. And God bless our fire departments and fire personnel.

And I am also honoring my husband, Chuck. Chuck was in the Navy during the time of the Korean War. He worked in the corporate world for 49 years. He was an IBM engineer. He loves watching the military channel and movies with car chases and things that blow up.

And this same precious individual is someone who would like nothing better than to be a train conductor who says:

ALL ABOARD FOR FAIRYLAND.

In honor of Conductor Chuck, I share with you here ways to experience

FAIRY FELLOWSHIP

101 WAYS TO BE A FRIEND
TO THE FAIRY FOLK

1. Believe in fairies.

2. Read fairy tales from around the world.

3. Use the word “flow” in your daily dialogue. Fairies feel comfortable with people who flow with life; people who let their life force flow.

4. Be open to seeing fairies with peripheral vision (from corner of your eyes). This is fairy focus. If you notice circles of light, you are observing fairies dancing. Fairies love to swirl, whirl and twirl.

5. Keep your mind and imagination open. You develop fairy vision with your imagination.

6. Recognize many invisible worlds envelope your visible world. When you’ve lost “track of time,” and find your mind blank as to where you’ve been or what you’ve been doing, you may have been wisped away to a pixie playground. Without wisping in life, you can wither in life.

7. Celebrate flowers! Love flowers; in fact, a love for all living things is a bridge between humans and fairies. Fairies love bluebells, pansies and daisies to name a few fairy favorites.

8. Honor the importance of childhood. Children are closer to fairy folk than adults. Fairies nurture childhood spirit.

9. Look for magic in everyone and everything. Buy a magic wand. Even better, make your own magic wand. Fairies are
magic masters.

10. Attune to subtle energies. Allow yourself to sense energy changes especially changes in the environment around you.
Notice the obscure.

11. Slow down your life pace. Going too fast is a sure way to miss the fairies around you. A fairy pace is “flow and easy”.

12. Pay attention to sound and consider turning down the volume around you so you can hear fairytalk. Let your mind flow with dreams about fairies.

13. Make time to “get quiet”…really quiet especially in nature. If you can hear insects humming, you can hear fairies giggling.

14. Affirm! Proclaim in your environment: “Yes! I know fairies are here with me!”

15. Make time to have a picnic in a park. Frolic with the fairies.

16. Make contact with nature with loving energy and thoughts, i.e. touching leaves with love, hugging trees. When you notice flowers are bobbing up and down, there’s a fairy that’s playing.

17. Talk to everything, i.e. your houseplants, with a voice of love.

18. Use your inner ears and inner eyes to hear and see the invisible world around you.

19. Breathe in all the amazing scents of life.

20. Listen for the sounds that come out of flowers. They truly do inhale and exhale. Listen to the music that’s in the air and for the sound of little chimes, bells and fairy harps.

21. Celebrate life! Have parties and invite the fairies to attend!

22. Applaud God for all the glorious creations. Be thankful.

23. Dance a life dance. At sunset, join with the fairies in honoring God by dancing a happy dance. Fairies love dancing in sunlight and moonlight. Fairies love light especially the light in your heart.

24. Believe in happily ever afters. Believe in miracles.

25. Go to flower shows. Visit gardens.

26. Fairies can be found in meadows filled with wild flowers and pixies in pastures.

27. Be kind to all creatures and all living things. Create wildlife habitats as well as fairy habitats.

28. Be a connoisseur of life. Savor your life. Life is delicious! Let the laughter, playfulness and happiness begin and you’ll be attracting fairy energy into your life.

29. Pay attention when you’re living life in overdrive and feel you always have to ‘get to” some place. Be the fullness of the now wherever you are.

30. Be in awe of the earth’s beauty. Make time to behold the beauty around and inside of you.

31. Praise all the cycles of nature: spring, summer, fall, winter.
Celebrate the seasons.

32. Look for ways to include thoughts of the fairies in your daily life. Think about what the fairies might be doing.

33. Invite the fairies into your life and your home. Verbally welcome them. Have lots of mirrors in your home. Mirrors are spirit and fairy doorways. Have fresh flowers because flowers petals are where they nap.

34. Build a fairy house for your home so the fairies come for sleepovers.

35. Create fairy furniture.

36. Learn your own personal rhythm, i.e. biorhythm chart. Your biorhythm is your natural life flow.

37. Be on the lookout for fairies where there are mounds, caves, forest clearings, creeks. Fairy mounds, hills, forts, gardens, lands do exist.

38. If you own property, let a part of your property or yard grow wild.

39. Discover your own inner sound and keynote. Opening to your inner sound is a portal to “other worlds”. The key of you is a key to opening to worlds within worlds that you are already attuned to. Put your ear to the ground, and listen for fairy sounds.

40. Discover your own inner fairy colors.

41. Surround yourself with fairy beauty, i.e. works of art depicting fairies.

42. Be genuine in your life. Be passionate about your life. Be a lover of your life.

43. Sing a fairy song outdoors to the fairies. If you don’t know a fairy song, write a fairy song as a gift to the fairies. The fairies love to hear singing.

48. Attend fairy festivals. Dress up like a fairy.

49. Subscribe to fairy magazines.

50. When shopping, pay attention to when you see fairy figurines and know that you are starting to make the connection of “seeing fairies everywhere”.

51. Have a fountain in your home inviting fairy energy to flow.

52. Visit places where there are waterfalls and look for fairies. Fairies love to play in waterfalls.

53. Attune to crystals that resonate with the fairies such as amethyst.

54. Practice tolerance and respect for everyone and everything. Do not curse. Cursing causes fairy energy to shutter; in fact, everyone’s energy shutters at the sound of cursing.

55. Hold the intention that you are going to see fairies and you will!

56. Commune with dolphins.

57. Take walks in parks and woods and hold your love for the fairies in your heart. Look for places that fill you with enchantment. You’ll find fairies there.

58. Notice when the weather creates “whirlwinds”.

59. Send daily blessings to your fairy friends. Wrap your fairy friends in prayer.

62. Contemplate your fellowship with fairies during the twixt times of the day, just before dawn; just before sunset

63. Notice when you see animals appear, i.e. a possum attempting to cross a road. All the kingdoms share sacred space here on earth. Be conscious of all family members.

64. Purchase a fossil sea urchin, echinite and meditate holding it to commune with fairies of the waters of the earth.

65. Read poems about fairies. Yeats called the land of the fairies the heart of our world. Connecting with the fairies opens your heart to joy.

66. Pay attention to when you spot golden ragwort growing. Fairies love it! Walk gently around toadstools.

67. Leave open space in your home for the invisible to become visible. Don’t clutter or crowd your home with useless stuff.

68. Fire fairies love candles, lamps, lights, sun images, triangles and red colors. Archangel Michael is the angelic guardian of fire fairies.

69. Earth or gnome fairies love clay pots, bricks, stones, square shapes, yellows, browns and orange colors. Archangel Uriel is the angelic guardian of earth fairies.

71. Water fairies love fountains, ponds, fish tanks, mirrors, glass and blue colors. Archangel Gabriel is the angelic guardian of the water fairies.

72. Look for fairies when you see rainbows.

73. Talk to children about fairies. Let them tell you of their beliefs. Let a child draw a fairy picture for you.

74. Go barefoot on the grass. You’ll be giving Mother Nature a foot massage and the fairies will tickle your toes.

75. Feel the wind blowing through your hair. Experience the wind knowing that the wind is experiencing you, too.

HUGGING THE NAKED ARCHAEOLOGIST

2009-11-20T08:17:00.000-08:00

Dear Angelic Blog Buddies:

I love inspiring quotations. John Milton's words truly describe the day I had yesterday. "Gratitude bestows reverence, allowing us to encounter everyday epiphanies, those transcendant moments of awe that change forever how we experience life and the world."

In short: I am so grateful to God for the transcendant moments of awe that I experienced yesterday.

Chuck and I drove to Washington, DC as we had tickets for the opening day of the National Geographic Museum's exhibit: Terra Cotta Warriors: Guardians of China's First Emperor. For those of you near to Washington, DC, I recommend attending the exhibit which is at the National Geographic Museum through March 31, 2010.

In my lectures, I share the importance of paying attention to when powerful art is on the move around the world. Art on the move is symbolic of powerful creative energy moving. This exhibit brought energies from the east to the west. Because Kwan Yin is an Ascended Being and guardian of the etheric realm over China, in an essence Kwan Yin's awesome energy has come to Washington, DC. As some of the descriptions share, this exhibit is a triumph of craftsmanship and artistic mastery. I strongly recommend that if you do attend the exhibit, pay the extra $5 for the audio tour. I thank God that this amazing terra cotta army survived the ages and it's now here in Washington where I am able to see some pieces from this unbelievable archaeological find.

I loved listening to the audio and learning about the techniques used in creating this army; an army that were first created with the thought of honoring an Emperor who wanted to rule for eternity. Now in 2009 it is an army of artistic expression. I went away from the exhibit with the feeling that even though ego appeared to be victorious in the conception of this project and the grueling demands placed on the people who were the builders and artisans, it was creative artistic expression that was ruling supreme in 2009.

In her book TERRA COTTA WARRIORS, Jane Portal, senior curator at the British Museum, writes: "The terra cotta army of Qin Shihuangdi, the First Emperor of China (221-210 BC), is one of the most spectacular finds in world archaeology. It was discovered by chance in 1974 - a garrison of battle-ready formation, spread across a number of pits. Here were life-sized warriors made over two thousand years ago from fired clay: cavalry, archers and infantry; lowly foot soldiers and high-ranking officers; figures of varying ages, with different hairstyles and facial expressions and seemingly representing every racial group in China - more than 6,000 in all."

The exhibit appeared at The Bowers Museum of Cultural Art in Santa Ana, California, the Houston Museum of Natural Science and is concluding its 2008-2010 United States tour at the National Geographic Museum in DC.

Before we went through the exhibit, I was wandering through the gift shop and saw the official catalog. I like to purchase catalogs for the exhibits I see and I'll share why a little bit later in this blog. I can do my own artistic life review from the collection of art exhibit catalogs I have gathered through my lifetime. There's something sacred about an art exhibit catalog. It mirrors to me the phenomenal effort that goes into museums bringing an exhibit from one part of the world to another. It is no small feat. One thing I love so much about the weekly spiritual class in my home, is that my class members are really great art scouts in telling me what they have heard is coming to Baltimore, DC and Philadelphia. My dear friend, Judy Stipanovich, in Pittsburgh is a great art scout, too.

The photographs were breathtaking, beautiful and awe-inspiring. Chuck and I agreed that due to the size of the catalog, we would purchase the catalog after touring the exhibit.

When Chuck and I concluded the tour, I walked from the end of the exhibit into the gift shop and there before me was a very distinguished looking Asian man seated behind a table preparing to autograph the catalog for the exhibit. The man at the table was Wang da Gang, the photographer of the images in the official catalog. After he signed my book, he rose and bowed to me. I bowed to him and proceeded to thank him abundantly for the wonderful blessing he is in capturing in photographs these incredible works of art. I thank God for cameras, photographers and photographs that inspire me.

While we were at the National Geographic Museum, I was crossing the courtyard by myself and realized that a man was walking towards me. I quickly recognized him. It was Simcha Jacobovic the Naked Archaeologist. Chuck and I watch and love his program on The History Channel. I excitedly said to him, "You're the Naked Archaeologist, aren't you?!" He admitted he was. I told him that I didn't want to come off as a total flake, but I adored his show and would it be ok if I gave him a big hug of gratitude as he is such a blessing. He agreed and so I hugged him big time and kept thanking him for his research. I thank God for brilliant researchers like Simcha.

Chuck and I then drove to Georgetown because we wanted to dine at a restaurant owned by Mauirico Sepulveda, a man who I first met through his attendance at classes I held, and since has become a dear friend.

The restaurant is: Los Cuates located at 1564 Wisconsin Avenue NW in Washington, DC. The restaurant phone number is 202-965-7009. The website is www.loscuatesestaurant.com

The restaurant is delightful in ambiance and the food is scrumptious Mexican food. After we finished our fantastic meal, our friends surprised us by treating us to the most wonderful dessert: Tres Leche Cake. The dessert is made with 3 types of cream. It is cake and then has something on top that is like an ice cream. When you cut into the cake, cream flows in every direction. I am convinced this is a recipe that was given to the chef by the angels. You have a heavenly experience when you eat it. So if by chance you get to Los Cuates, you must save room for Tres Leche Cake. I am someone who is truly grateful for desserts. And this dessert was awe-inspiring; it is truly divine. I thank God for desserts.

A lot of times in our lives, the stresses of our work day just seem to take the best of us. It takes all of our energy to get ourselves home at the end of the day and then we just don't feel inspired to do much of anything but collapse into a chair. Sometimes my mind feels too tired to read words.

When I am having this type of low energy experience, I like to play a cd of inspiring music in the background, and then reach for an art book or art exhibit catalog. The cabinet in which I keep my art catalogs is a kind of "good medicine" cabinet for me. I slowly turn the pages of the catalog and let myself be nurtured by the art. It is as if the art angels say to me, "Come to art, Jayne. Let art take your tiredness from you and replace it with divine inspiration found in the beautiful. Be healed by beauty."

This activity gives me an opportunity to revisit an exhibit I saw in the past, or be inspired by art images of a photographer or painter. It becomes an experience of beauty for my eyes, ears, mind, heart and soul. I find it to be a mini-healing.

I recommend the website: www.artashealing.org.

At this website you will find information on how art heals including the following statements: "Scientific studies tell us that art heals by changing a person's physiology and attitude...Art and music affect every cell in the body instantly to create a healing physiology that changes the immune system and blood flow to all the organs...in fact it is now known by neurophysiologists that art, prayer and healing all come from the same source in the body, they all are associated with similar brain wave patterns, mind body changes and they all are deeply connected in feeling and meaning."

Let art bless you and heal you. There's no coincidence that you will find the letters that spell "art" inside the word heart.

Heal your heart with art.

Love in abundance, Jayne
