Serenity
 
What is it? How do I get some? This message shows up for me a lot in my morning meditations. This morning along with Serenity I received the message of Synchronicity and Positive Energy. What is Serenity? For me it is peace of mind and knowing I’m always provided for. I know that what I ask for is always given to me. I also know that because my thoughts create my world, I need to be careful about what I think about. Watch the magic unfold in front of your eyes everyday. We live in an incredible universe where miracles happen everyday. See how many messages are sent to you today. Are you paying attention to your guides? Have you surrounded yourself with positive people? Where is your positive level meter today? Have you taken 15 minutes out of your day to focus on what you want? Sometimes it may seem like things will never change and if that is the feeling, notice where you are focusing your attention. Just 15 minutes a day will make major shifts in your and our world. Set your intention, your focus, your peace of mind on what is good in your life now and what will be coming. Let all the others things fall away peacefully as you focus on what you want. Sometimes the falling away can look like chaos but you can be peaceful in the middle of it all.

The Energies of September
 
By Daniele DeVoe, Channel and Healer
 
 The Rune for September is Perth: Initiation, Something Hidden, A Secret Matter
 
Perth suggests that there are secrets afoot… And considering how close we are getting to the election, this is not a surprise. For you personally, Perth speaks of inner secrets which are truths ready to step into the light. As you maneuver September, meditate… contemplate… observe your own inner beliefs and understandings. Initiation occurs when you commit your own truths to the light and prepare for new understandings to evolve. 
 
Perth also hints that surprises and unexpected gains will be coming your way this month. For your part, have you told the Universe what it is that you are wanting? Have you blessed the dreams of others? Have you prepared yourself to receive?
 
Mercury goes retrograde on the 24th… For 3 weeks mercury will support your own inner work, your own meditations. What a wonderful thing to use this retrograde period to align with the most secret desires of your heart and prepare for the initiation that Perth promises.
 
 (Reference book: The Book of Runes, by Ralph Blum
 
The Osho Zen Tarot Card for September is Abundance
 
In the metaphysical world ‘abundance’ does not only refer to money… it refers to abundance in all things (including money). I believe the card is encouraging us to turn off the evening news and all its dire warnings and begin to create experience for ourselves. There really are people living happy lives in this difficult world. There really are people loving their jobs, selling their houses successfully, paying their bills on time, loving their partners and families, enjoying time off and holding hope for the future.
 
This is what the Abundance card wishes to remind us of… and wishes to offer us as well…
 
So why not begin by thinking about what abundance means to you? And once you’ve gotten very clear on that, why not ask the Universe to be your partner in creating that experience in your life? Cool…
 
Namaste’!
Daniele

Intuitive Mandala
by: Theresa Chaze
Whether an individual calls himself or herself psychic, intuitive, or clairvoyant, the way each uses their gifts is as unique as the person who is doing the reading. Anna Blanchard discovered that she could use both her intuition and artistic talent by creating Intuitive Mandala that give insight into past, present and future.
 
Mandala can be found in many cultures and spiritual traditions. In Sanskrit it means circle. Yet the definition goes far beyond the simple round shape as Mandala represents wholeness and our connection to the infinite.
 
"The integrated view of the world represented by the Mandala, while long embraced by some Eastern religions, has now begun to emerge in Western religious and secular cultures. Awareness of the Mandala may have the potential of changing how we see ourselves, our planet, and perhaps even our own life purpose."
(From Mandala: Journey to the Center, by Bailey Cunningham)
 
In a mystical sense, Mandala is reflections of the never-ending spiral of spiritual growth that each soul must experience on their path to enlightenment. No matter the size, shape or medium on which the Mandala is created, the message contained within its symbols is one that is meant to share wisdom and give comfort.
 
Anna creates a pencil drawing containing archetypical symbols, which represent the information she receives from the person’s essence/energy body. The information she receives is what the person needs to know the most in the present to move forward. She suggests that you get copies made and use the copies as a meditation tool, coloring with gel pens, crayons, markers….and allowing your own creativity to come through by adding designs and symbols that come to you in the moment.
 
Anna is available for readings on Fridays at the Higher Self, or by appointment. To arrange for an appointment call 231-941-5805.

Ethereal Clearing Workshop

TheEthereal Clearingworkshop has evolved very quickly and we have seen amazing success with the participants!  Thefree lecture*providesastounding clarity on the5 Points of Consciousness, and the workshop that follows teaches everyone how to bridge those 5 points to the Higher Self, merges you with your Higher Self, and so much more!  If you are even a little bit interested, follow your instincts and come check out the lecture!  If you have always wanted a defined way to communicate with your HigherSelf, Spirit Guides, Ascended Masters and more, learn theOracle Card techniquethat we teach and see how clearly you get around the natural filterthat we all have.  This workshop is changing lives very quickly...remember that "they" (Spirits in the Ethereal Realm) evolve as we evolve, so they are personally invested in your success!  Yes, as you evolve, manifestation starts making sense...what are you waiting for? Call to register for the next lecture and see what you've been missing and what people are talking about! 

The lecture is approximately 2 hours in length, and the workshop is approximately 3 hours long.  We have set up monthly conference calls to check in on everyone that has taken the class and answer questions as well as created a Yahoo groups so that people from the classes can network and discuss their experiences!  If you come to the lecture and pay for the workshop within 24 hours, the two Oracle Card decks are free as well!  This is not a "bookshelf" class...so if you do not want to be proactive with your evolution, growth and manifestation, this class is not for you.  The great news is that with these tools, you can be proactive and actually get somewhere!  The ball is in your court; if you've asked for help, this is probably your chance to actually get it!  Workshops are being held in many different areas, so if you are not near Traverse City, give me a call and let me know where you are...we just might bring it to you! 
Happy Evolution! :)
