04.01.05 - April's Doorstep
Here we are on april's doorstep. The spring equinox arrived
ten days ago, and at the same time the sun entered the sign of
aries igniting a series of initiation codes which will accelerate
love and light through the planetary field of earth over the next
three moons. The challenges and opportunities we face for this
cycle will continue to test the outer edges of our courage and
the inner core of our strength and wisdom. How we choose to respond
to the evolving solar, lunar, and interplanetary "weather" patterns
at this time will largely determine whether our circumstances will
appear as crisis or possibility.
As with all natural aries energy it brings in an initiation that
fires the codes of new frequencies and accelerates the energy of
passion and free will. Individuals pick up the encrypted force
that inspires and births new ideas, new visions, new opportunities
and new ways of perceiving old situations. This fresh, invigorating
sense fills us with a harmonious vibration that settles us and
we see "things" anew. Clarity can become a self-commanding
reality for many. Empowerment fuels us to honor what we know to
be true. New direction comes in easily and lovingly. We open to
our creational abilities and instincts effortlessly. Our world
and its limited perceptions seems to fade into the background amongst
all these new visions and embodiments. We rest in the renewed hope
that there are a multitude of ways to get things going, to move
through the shifts and changes easily and manifest our perfected
vision of the present (and future).
With those being some of the organic ingredients of aries the
heavenly committee for awareness and motivational freedom has sprinkled
in a couple of eclipses that will herald a new divine circuitry
within the self that will provide the foundation for holding more
love, more love than we have know thus far, at the physical level.
This is not a second chakra, physical love but rather the fifth
dimensional unconditional love that has been prophesied since biblical
days. Between the eclipses a reconstruction of "our good" is
taking place within the building blocks of our holiest temple --
the body.
Those most sensitive – particularly the water signs of cancer,
scorpio and pisces – may find the intensity of these incoming
energies over whelming. The best way to deal with what feels like
the pressure from too many people, places, things and situations
bearing down is to go for a walk in nature, particularly if there
is a stream, river or ocean that may be connected to during the
walk. Hugging big trees, sitting on huge rock boulders or going
deep into a cave or sweat lodge is very grounding during this time.
Peace, quiet and solitude with your own inner truth center as
your companion is an absolute necessity during april 2005.
The greatest challenge during april is to continually assess and
reassess the new situations and circumstances being presented to
us evaluating them as to whether they nurture, support and assist
us or whether they distract, generate chaos or perpetuate confusion.
There is so much being presented during this month that it is imperative
that we slow down enough to take a deep breath, exhale slowly and
sense whether the energies demanding our attention are feeding,
supporting and nurturing us or simply distracting, exclaiming,
and dishonoring. The amount of mental psychic spit-fire energies
floating around on the planet are extremely high during this time.
Knowing where to focus is of paramount importance.
The difference between getting it or not is in the preparation!
Da-h-h-h-h-h-h-h,
Reverend Angela
Blessing:
i stand tall in the presence of sacredness that coordinates all
the different
parts of life. The saturns, the jupiters, the venuses are all
moving within
the infinite mind, which is perfect, balanced, and loving. Everything
is
divinely orchestrated to express life at the highest level, to
support and
nurture its myriad forms.
I, too, am part of the cosmos and express the one by means of
my individual
light and grace. As this new emergence befalls the planet i open
my heart,
my sense and sensibility to perceive the creator's new idea of
me. I pay
attention and cooperate with the divine flow of april as i blossom
into a
greater idea of earthened life and light. In this new place where
mind-boggling
activities of light are taking place i function as god's most
perfect instrument
of brilliance, truth, and love. I am life-transforming god victoriously!
All that i am and all i can be is the wondrous true love of a
celestial intelligence
that is bringing love, wisdom, and peace to this planet i call
home. In this time
that signifies rebirth and renewal i trust that god knows how
to do it all.
And so it is.

- It's All Well Planned
As
waves and waves and waves of light begin to roll into your present
day reality remember that this has all been planned out w-a-a-a-y-y-y-y-y-y-y
in advance and that you jumped over both peter and paul in order
to have the opportunity to sit in the front row of this ascension
event so that you could have the very best view possible.
You may begin to sense some of the same physical reactions that
were so apparent in january of this year. Whatever that was for
you. Listen to that little voice within as it tells you, " ...i
haven't had this happen since the last time i was told so much
light was coming in." in february and march we received bursts
and pulses of light and then a lull, now we move into weeks when
bright, big waves of energy keep rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling
(getting it?) into our realities.
The best advice i can give is for each to stay connected to source.
As we multidimensionally spin into the higher realms you are going
to need the foundation of remembering who and what you truly are.
Do make the mistake of not having time for your spiritual practice
for the next couple of weeks. Balance will only be achieved from
within; do not count on anything or anyone externally to comfort
you. Only your connection to source allows you to really know who
you are.
As twists, turns, and surprises pop up this week and next remember
to use a blessing, such as today's, to return order and clarity
to your mind and thus, your reality. There are many states of joy,
fun, excitement, gratitude, love, bliss and unity in store for
us so remain focused on these and not the illusion of transformation
that can hypnotize you into standing still in fear and anxiety.
In great admiration of your journey,
Reverend Angela
Blessing:
There is only perfect order in the universe. The one all intelligent
power of god moves and yields in divine right action always. I
trust deeply in this power of spirit, knowing that it is all there
is working in and through me. In truth every challenge and adventure
in my life is god's light playfully expressing in a human habitat.
From this moment onward i claim a new relationship with my "worldly" identity.
I allow the thinking aspects of the self to expand and fill with
more of my soul essence. All resistance transforms into acceptance
so that the energy may be released effortlessly and easily as it
filters through my energetic and physical bodies. In my allegiance
to one, i embrace and accept all my feelings for they are all messages
of newfound clarity and strength. Each uneasy situation and experience
in my daily life is actually a seed of "growth" being
planted by spirit. It is an opportunity to know myself in a new
way, and so i commit to using all circumstances in my life as positive.
The truth is, all change that spirit brings our way is designed
for our ultimate good. My job is to stay in the knowing "that
god is all there is and this presence working within me works everything
out ever so perfectly, all the time, every time."
with an open heart that is filled with thanksgiving i know all
is occurring as planned. Yes, life is challenging by nature to
facilitate our growth into new levels of consciousness. I make
it all work -- knowing god's divine harmony flows to me and through
me, as me. And so it is.

- Stretch Into Your Greatest Potential
What
if, as much as god is the alpha, the omega, and everything
inbetween -- this essence could also be your thoughts? Not
just in them. Not just riding upon them. Not just what they
manifest. But were the actual thoughts themselves?
Would it be easier for you to see how far you can send them? How
unlimited they are? How dependable? Nonjudgmental? Infallible?
Supreme? How potentially healing, nurturing and magical they are?
Would it be easier to see how powerful you are?
Blessing:
there is but one life, one source of all good, one source of all
abundance. And it is god. Everywhere i look, if i open my eyes,
i see the infinite, lavish abundance of spirit. It is all around
me, burgeoning with an extravagance that shows me the truth. I
look at the grass, and see an abundance of blades of green in every
possible shade. I see the variety and creativity of nature and
realize that it is relentless in its pursuit of creating something
new. And this very process which i see in action all around me
is happening in me.
The universe merely looks for an outlet for its infinite creativity.
It finds that outlet in me today. My mind is fertile ground for
wild, bold ideas that produce wonderful results. My heart is home
to beliefs and attitudes that reveal joy and respect for all people.
And my life is a place where the abundant nature of spirit shows
up and shows up en masse!
I open my life this day to realize that all the good i seek is
already around me. I open my consciousness this day to receive
what has already been given. And i give thanks for the giving,
loving, supportive nature of this universe, which cannot and will
not ever let me down. And so it is.
Blessing:
there is only one recurring holiness of all time, it is the binding
core of each living essence and it is called by the name yhwh.
I am but a single reinterpretation and reflection of this source.
I am its heart that understands, its ears that hear, and its eyes
that see in this present moment of sacred narrative.
As i journey through each of my holy days i marvel at the complexities
of the human condition. I am compelled to explore the legend of
spirit that has formed my texture and content. I lovingly refashion
the divinity polishing the personality of ( insert your name) to
include more love, more appreciation, and more joy. These are easily gained
under the mentorship of an alignment with infinite intelligence.
All that is required of me is to flourish from the heart -
the seat of all wisdom.
With an attitude of reverence and thanksgiving i allow love to
be the something that comes through me more fully today. From the
inner reaches to every particle of external space. And so it is.

- Here Fishy
Affirm:
i am the energy that is aligned with the sacred source.
Hidden, powerful, active, healing ... An unlimited potential.
I let all that i focus on to become the extraordinary vision
of a holy union between soul & spirit.
Silently and softly i design the placement of each event
and experience that comes into my life.
Within me dances the joy of creation!
From me emanates soul-centered living!
To me comes all i desire!
Indeed, i live open to the infinite!
Glory, glory. Amen.

04.07.05
- Change is Flow
All
experiences of time and space are essentially creatures of
surface consciousness studying the facets of the deeper self.
Without changes in our environment, in our mentality, in our
perceptibility we would not be able to meet the self which
directs all of these outward changes. The one that is always
the same; the nameless and formless existence behind the flow
of all our experiences. Through change, by distinctions of
space and circumstances out of the ordinary we begin to notice
that which never changes. We become aware of the eternal self
that is without personality.
The consciousness of self, as it is timeless, is also capable
of freely regarding change as a thing reflected in it and as either
the cause or the subjective field of the changing experience. It
is the eternal "i am" the unchanging consciousness on
whose surface mind is constantly adding to its experience or rejecting
from its experience, and by every addition life is modified and
by every rejection also it is modified; although that deeper self
which supports and contains these mutations remains unmodified.
This day express gratitude for every change that occurs. Let this
dance of existence be the place where you more vividly see the
trueness of that which comes to continually regard you as eternal.
Rejoicing in this freedom i welcome all change,
Reverend Angela
Blessing:
There is but one inner movement in our subjective field of changing
experiences. It perceives the pureness of its divine nature through
the language of its changing self-experience. Being a reflection
of this existence, i embrace the many blessings "change" brings
forth in my life.
I realize i am pure conscious existence putting on the character
of (your name) and whose surface changes of conscious experiences
can never affect the deeper self which supports and contains these
mutations of time. I am an eternal flame that knows itself at this
moment as (your given name). I am more than the sum total of her/his
circumstances experienced in time and space. I am the one consciousness
directly inhabiting and governing the environing body of her/his
subjective phenomenon. Allowing the cosmic movement of change is
honoring the antecedent state of first cause. In recognizing that
my inner being is always in some state of movement or wave of conscious
being i can relax into all change. This impulse, or inner life-reaction,
is sensed by each thought and emotion i radiate, therefore i commit
to becoming fully aware of all i think and feel. It is under these
conditions i can capture the something that is behind the succession
of events in my life - supporting it, containing it, and being
all its changing forms.
I am awed to know, to know, i am an arrangement of the one conscious
force living as a willed personality illumined from within. I open
and live the graciousness of this knowledge. I am thankful for
such a precious gift of spirit. And so it is. Amen.

- Ascension in the Physical Body
Transitioners. I'm sure that somewhere in the universe we are
referred to as "the transitioners." everything on
this beautiful blue green pearl transitions from one thing
to another. It is as if that was the macrocosmic plan formed
over the millennia. Think about it, aren't you always transitioning
to your next step? I'm sure that i arrange my consciousness
so that i will continue to grow and experience new realities,
new life, new joys, deeper sorrows......
Each friday this month we are going to focus on synthesis. When
you collect all your memories and experiences and synthesize them
within your energy field you become a new being, one who has never
existed before. Every human soul remembers how to do synthesis,
how to incorporate the desparate parts of self into one integrated
human embodying divinity. But we never thought the experiences
of this process would scare off so many of us from synthesizing.
After all, when you synthesize, you will no longer be all of the
selves you remember yourself to be. You will be other.
Do you, do i, want to be other? I know i do this life well. Never
mind that i repeatedly look for a life other than the one i have
created for myself; never mind any of that because -- to change
is hard. It may knock me off balance! Never mind that i complain
from time to time that this is who i am. And never mind that every
other sentient being on, and in the planet feels that humans think
too much. The truth is we do think too much ... We do. I do.
It seems to me that as spiritual people we need to find those "markers" in
our physical reality that remind us that to function well in this
domain we must follow the natural steps from flow to alignment.
With that in mind, take time today to marvel at the wonder of nature.
Look at what is happening naturally, beautifully, gracefully, powerfully.
New growth is emerging and it has been done through the process
of synthesis. Listen as your own growth calls you; "i am more
than this, i am more than this." it is spirit incorporating
the strengths of the old self with none of the weakness! And the
protocol is synthesis-- allow it.
Remember what it means to be a transitioner. The intention of
assimilating during transitions is to collect the learning that
has occurred so it can be used in other places, other ways. No
learning is ever wasted for a transitioner.
Seeing each of us grow in harmony and in conflict,
Reverend Angela
Blessing:
The renewing, rejuvenating spirit of this one life fills my world
today with its noble beauty. Alive within this potent, powerful
cycle i connect with nature and her "newness of life," for
just as the plant kingdom springs forth with its first shoots of
new growth, i know that i too am ready to open and reveal the gifts
of a winter's introspection.
I consciously join in this rhythm of life that births buds into
early flowers by declaring the same knowing in this universe that
opens flowers in their time is the wisdom of my primal source for
i am one with all. As i grow in my upward movement toward the perfect
flower i surrender to the divine will that designs all life paths.
It is this power that allows me to grow. I am life in renewal.

04.11.05 - The Aire is Hummin
The play of energies this week are opening all to a higher realm of Living -- an expression of Life that moves more from love. As we mourned the passing of an impassioned Son of God last week our hearts opened and received an offering of Love that has been lost within the world of man for thousands of years. We, the collective body of human existence, are now ready to claim the opportunities of new light, new directions and new hopes for ourselves. The Light that came forth this past Friday as the Pope was buried brought in the expanded version of Christ consciousness that has been promised. We will now see a new beauty, truth, love and trust in ourselves. The ceremony and ritual that many witnessed on CNN or the BBC was also occurring on the unseen levels so that the Kingdom of Heaven and the Realms of Earth can now be One.
With such a powerful infusion being newly taken on some of us may feel a bit out-of-sorts during the coming week. We are being asked to be gentle with ourselves. Do not expect to be productive, efficient, and executively proper this week. As these new encodements and energies activate within the physical some are going to feel sensitive, withdrawn, and perhaps even tired. The cells of the body have just been bombarded with wave upon wave upon wave of Light. Allow them to incorporate the frequencies at their own pace. Let this be an opportunity to practice the art of listening to the body and its intelligence.
The week should be dedicated to anchoring and grounding "the new you." If you look in the mirror and do not feel connected to the you that is staring back, you are not alone. Many are going to experience feeling as if someone new is speaking (internally)to them now that they have a stronger connection to their higher self. More of your True Nature is now in your body. Consequently, you may not feel like doing a thing or be able to concentrate as a sense of floating around aimlessly is the result of this new ethereal embodiment. The energy will dissipate as the higher aspects of you acclimate to their new environment.
For those who are in command of their intuitive senses and those who easily connect with the higher realms there are opportunities to access any and all Wisdom, Truth and Timing residing in the Hall of Records. You will find delight in discovering that you can now create fresh and new from each moment. You will stand in the empowerment of Soul Self and place yourself in incredibly good spaces simply by choice. You are learning to navigate within the design of the Christed energy that is now your physical vehicle. Keep notes this week.
It will also serve all of us to remember that whenever the Light becomes more evident in any given place, so does the dark. Like a child that feels they are being abandoned the dark forces will scream, holler, and try to throw temper tantrums as all that is unlike Light is purged from within ourselves and the world at large. If you choose to focus your attention on the places and events that are vehemently grasping to an old identity you will also enter into the consciousness of fear that controls their destinies. If you have the opportunity to witness such darkness I urge you to take a moment and nurture the experience with the love, power, passion and beauty of God. Be the conduit of Spirit that you were born to be and soothe the places that are cajoled and tormented by the arrogance of fear.
The rest of April will bring so many new and exciting changes that you will want to pinch yourself to make certain it is all real. No longer do we have to work to create what we desire. We now move beyond our present day understanding of materialization and begin to magnetize our creations to us. We are expanding our perceptions and reality to the realms of existence beyond our physical being! So put on your seatbelts, get ready for many surprises, twists and turns in this now reality that you find yourself in, and prepare to have fun in every joyous moment.
Right there with you!
Reverend Angela
BLESSING:
Behold! I prepare for all new things. With these words, the Infinite Power
of Spirit announces Itself as me today! I know that whatever my past
experience , whatever my history, wherever I've come from ... it's all
nothing compared to the renewing, rejuvenating power of Spirit and
the direction I am headed.
This day, I leave behind all the ideas that I'm defined by the past. I
release all the attitudes that keep me stuck in that place, with no room
to grow, root-bound to what once-was. I shrug off the habits of emotion
that keep me feeling the same old feelings again and again ... in my new
life, there is no room for re-sentiment.
I release all the old fears and doubts, knowing that there is something
in me I can trust to lead me past all frightening appearances. I let go
of dis-ease, of lack, of diminished and conditional love. I discard apathy
and jaded cynicism. Blame is gone, too. There's only room for a powerful
new joyous experience of living, which I claim for myself and for every
living being.
I give thanks for the Spirit that knows how to make all things new in me,
and in my life. I give thanks for this renewing power that reveals such
wholeness and beauty wherever I am. And I enter this new world with
hope, expecting the very best, knowing it is already done. And so it is.

04.12.05 - Lead Your Heart
From "Collected Essay Of Robert Bitzer" -
KEEP ON THE PATH
If you create something you do not like, you can change it. What you create you can un-create.
If conditions do not loosen their grip on you, perhaps you are not in your effective place. Consciousness establishes its own conditions. If things in your outer world are not moving fast enough, you need to clear your consciousness. Perhaps you are not doing what you really want to do and are trying to use willpower to make things happen. Don't try to go through the stone wall. Go back in consciousness. Change your idea, change your evaluation. Resistance, obstructions, and opposition could mean you are off your path.
Get still and let the new idea come through. Find yourself on your right path. Here things work smoothly, joyously, and powerfully. Stop struggling and forcing. "Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit." Let God be you.
BLESSING:
The power of Spirit to awaken me to my own spiritual nature is at work in me
even as I read these words; the Infinite Presence of Life is culminating in
its latest wonderful evolution in me this very moment. I am part of the
Infinite Universal Presence, created out of it, with all the wisdom and
power and creativity it has. I've always got access to this creative power
for transformation, and I let that power go to work in me this very day.
Knowing that Spirit is always at work in me in this way, I wake up to Its
workings and work with it. I daily set the intention to open my mind and
heart to experience my own spiritual nature. I daily set the intention to
receive the good that is here for me. Every day of my life, I choose to give
the best I have to offer the world, and in every moment, I give thanks for
the blessings that are everywhere around me.
I let myself grow and change, not holding onto the good from the past, and
opening to the greater good that's blossoming in all people and things. I
call it forth. And I am ready for this; there's nothing in me that resists
this opening in any way. Any places of fear or confusion are now filled with
clarity and courage. And for this process of unfolding, of awakening, I give
thanks. Because it is done. And so it is.

Gratitude and thanksgiving are my way of life!
And so God is! And so am I! Amen.

04.14.05 - Waiting Until you See
How much time does the universe need to bring about the material manifestation of what has been claimed inwardly? Dr. Holmes would tell us to engage the method of mental equivalents correctly and fully and to believe that the fulfillment of our desire simply hasn't happened yet. He would pat us on the back and look attentively into our eyes and remind us to rest faithfully in the feeling of fulfillment. Faith, like love as Shakespeare describes it, "bears it out, even to the edge of doom," and various spiritual writings tell us that our faith in "the substance of things unseen" ( Christianity ) must be unwavering.
Yet there are situations in which the outer fulfillment seems to take an a-w-f-u-l-l-y long time in coming, if indeed it is coming at all. I understand and sympathize deeply with how challenging this can be. There are many useful things Science of Mind and Dr. Holmes would have to say about this, the first of them being that merely noticing that an outer manifestation hasn't taken place creates a counterintention. By allowing the apparent void to occupy your present awareness you disrupt the relief, peace, and contentment of the alignment you were directing.
To assist you in carrying out the process of creation & manifestation correctly and deeply choose to believe that the fulfillment of your claim in consciousness just hasn't happened yet. Lean into those feelings of expecting it to be done; imagine that creative waves of energy are dipping into pre-manifest matter (through intending) to select the perfect version of Reality just for you! Have the unwillingness to settle for less than what "the eye of the beholder" can create.
Intend everything today in a context that it is already under way, already flowing to you -
Reverend Angela
TREATMENT:
The light of Spirit rushes throughout all creation, an everywhere present,
unlimited intelligence with the ability to apply that intelligence wherever
it is needed. There's nothing that can impede the perfect revelation of
these spiritual energies in joyous and life-affirming ways. And this
intelligence has been made manifest as me, in me; I am the creation of
Spirit that thinks, chooses and decides!
I've been given a great gift; the ability to create my experience of
everything in life simply by changing my thought. Knowing the power of this
stream of consciousness within me, I pay close attention to what's going on
in my mind, listening intently to my intuition, choosing again if my inner
talk is not the best of the best. I think clearly and set a clear intention
to live from the best of myself, always. And I do. And so it is.

04.15.05 - Your Word is Invincible
The Atmosphere of Our Thinking
"We are all immersed in the atmosphere of our own thinking, which is the direct result of all we have ever said, thought or done. This decides what is to take place in our lives. Thought attracts what is like itself and repels what is unlike. We are drawn toward those things which we mentally image. Most of the inner processes of our thought have been unconscious, but when we understand the Law, we learn to consciously embody what we wish, and think of this only, and then we are drawn silently toward it.
The emphasis on true mental healing is insistently on God, the One Mind, the One Soul, the One Being, ever-present and ever-available; and on man's ability and rite to make himself receptive to this healing Presence - a realization of the essential divinity of our own nature, and the truth that no evil can live in this Presence. We must unify ourselves with the great Whole. The man who dares to fling his thought into Universal Intelligence, with the assurance of one who realizes his divine nature and its relation to the Universe - and dares to claim all there is - will find an ever-creative good at hand to aid him. God will honor his request. To the soul that knows its own divinity, all else must gravitate. Let us, then, enlarge our thought processes, and dare to think in Universal terms. Let us dare to believe that every constructive word is invincible!" -- Ernest Holmes
BLESSING:
The Universe is an intelligent spiritual system that always knows how to
balance itself. It creates out of itself, perfectly, lawfully, and
lovingly... then consistently maintains its creation in perfect harmonious
balance. The same is true of me, for I am one with this infinite spiritual
system. The universe maintains me in perfect orderly balance, and all that I
have created in my life can be in this same absolute equilibrium.
Every area of my life is now brought into this equilibrium, with enough play
and enough work, enough activity and rest, just the right amount of
all things so that my life moves effortless with the natural flow of things.
My thinking, too, is balanced and steady; so are my emotions. This doesn't
mean that life is flat; on the contrary, life is richer and richer every
moment. The nature of life is to continually harmonize with itself, so every
facet of my day moves fluidly into the next, with all things of importance
attended to in the right way, at the right time.
I don't use my precious time in ways that don't serve me or the greater
livingness of my life; I am attuned to what to do in every moment, and I
do it...of course, with perfect grace, ease, and balance! I am so grateful
to the Power of Spirit to restore the perfect equilibrium in every area of
my life, and I accept this blessing with great joy. And so it is.

04.18.05 - The Job to be Done
Good Monday in this season of Transcendence!
I have heard from many of you that Aries, is indeed, doing its job of constantly conducting internal searches to seek out the places within us that desire transformation. We are in the signature guidance energy that takes every falsely perceived attitude and feeling and readjusts them in order that we may more closely rest in our own Divinity. Even though the requirements of this universal intelligence present challenges it delivers us into a deeper awareness of our God Selves and the reality of victoriously living that Light upon the planet. This week we want to celebrate and express gratitude for the unique assistance each is receiving from this transfiguration process. When we give thanks, even for that which appears to paralyzing, we allow the compassion of Heaven to embrace us thus transcending discordant vibrations.
This week Aries will be looking to complete things as brother Taurus waits side-stage. Allow all that is falling away to unify your outer-world activities with your inner-world truths. The heart of each soul on earth is becoming One-pointed in consciousness. As each one is turned on we will exponentially expand the grid of Divine Love that is flowing through the physical, etheric, emotional, and mental fields of the planet.
Know that whatever comes before you this week as chaos, drama, hysterics, irritation, or frustration is responding to your personal call for the activity of Light that is present to come in and burst asunder the grip of proactive ignorance that separates you from the commanding I AM presence that resides within.
We are moving through an auspicious time, the most important thing you can do is focus on raising your energy, vibration, and consciousness as you progress through each day of this week. As my friend Wayne Dyer would tell you, "be fulfilled in all circumstances" this week. That means use it to learn something that empowers you!
Allowing Divinity the space & harmony to pick us up and carry us to a gentler place and time --
Reverend Angela
BLESSING:
There is only One. That One is God. And I am One with it. This
beloved presence is the source of all life, my life, and it is the infinite
creative power that knows how to accomplish whatever it is that I give
it to do. It works in ways that are beyond comprehension, but I know
that it works. My purpose in life is to awaken fully to my own magnificence,
and in doing so, simultaneously intensify my soul vibration and joyfully
connect in harmonic fashion to all other life frequencies.
Today I know that I am on a potent path of spiritual awakening. A journey
that reveals the bare reality of my deepest inner desires. Because I am an
interactive part of the One Pure Source of all life, I can and do draw from
this source all that I need to move forward with confidence, flexibility,
and strength. Whatever benefits or misfortunes lie before me on the path, I
meet them as an equal - as a master! - for I am continually creating my experience.
As the creator, I am greater than whatever has been created.
This isn't egotism; it is simple truth. I need not fear the past or worry anxiously
over the future for I am deeply rooted in Spirit. In this moment, I use the infinite
creative power that is my divine resonance to intend a life that is filled with love,
compassion, abundance, and intimate relationships. I am plugged in to my soul's
deeper conversations with light so I receive deeper understandings of the workings
of all my choices, and I make the kinds of choices that serve it well. Anything that
no longer serves the fullness of my life is left behind without regret. I welcome the
renewal and revitalization of my life.
I give my thanks for the Power of this infinite universe that flows
through my body, my mind, my spirit, and I enter this day with calm
serenity and gratitude. My life is a flexible, flowing body of peaceful
thought intentions.And so it is.

04.19.05 - Allowing Creation to Work for You
I have always been delighted at the prospect of a new day, a fresh try, one more start,
with perhaps a bit of magic waiting somewhere behind the morning.
- j.b. priestly
When I encourage students to let go of their will as a means of efficiency in their lives, we are drawing from the ancient wisdom expressed in many spiritual traditions. At first, as the students applies trust, they move from a focus or intention of making things happen to simply allowing them to happen. Often they experience nervousness or even fear from this exercise but that is because most of us have been programmed to believe that if we don't do anything to make what we want happen, then nothing will be done and it won't happen. With patience, however, I reflect with them on the staggering intelligence, creativity, resourcefulness, and efficiency of the Universe to demonstrate that this is actually the only path to wisdom. If Infinite Intelligence can arrange strong forces, fine structure constants, breathable atmospheres and sentient beings to breathe it, plus countless other remarkable efficiencies-- and can do it all at once, everywhere, naturally, with no sign of effort -- then why should we have trouble believing that it can arrange the perfect job, partner, guidance, or supply?
Of course, the most important thing to bring to conscious or deliberate creating is willingness. And willingness requires that we at the very least suspend all conclusions against what we want, and start believing, as Florence Shovel Shinn says, that "nothing is too good to be true." All around us, Life is fulfilling Itself; this seems to be Its job. To experience this personally, all we need do is open to the experience, imaginably, of already having received. Why not apply this principle over the week by embodying the thoughts & feelings of whatever wish, then refuse to take seriously anything that contradicts it? Remember, you do nothing to make anything happen; simply by claiming it as your divine inheritance you will have the stars ignite and the hands of heaven creating the means to an end for you.
Get out there and be amazed by your own handiwork!
Reverend Angela
BLESSING:
Spirit always has the answer, whatever the question. Because Spirit, the
One source of all life, is wisdom itself. Whether I call it God, the Beloved,
Sophia, or even 'it', it is Infinite Intelligence and understanding, and it
is this in action. The action of intelligence is at work in me and in my
life; the power of understanding is at work in my heart.
I accept that the love spirit has for its creation is always with me, that
the support of spirit flows freely to me, within me, and from me. I
participate in life by living creatively, joyfully, thankfully, and in awe
at the beauty, richness, and wonder all around me. I give thanks continually
for the good in my life, for the loving friendships, the many material
blessings, the wonderful work I am blessed to do, for the beauty and
strength of my body, and for the amazing goodness that is everywhere to be
found on our shared planet.
I know that what I contemplate, I become. So I spend plenty of time
each day allowing the beautiful, the powerful, and the joyful things in life.
The results are clear, and for them, I am thankful. And so it is.

04.21.05 - I Am Liberated
A gratified person is someone who constantly experiences the abundance
of life itself and the privilege of life itself because they know that
wherever they are, just by the force of nature that is their Being,
anything is possible! -Reverend Angela
BLESSING:
There is a dynamic force of Enlightenment in this universe. It is the
potential from which all life manifests. Therefore it is the essence
of my Being, and my life too lends itself to this dynamic force.
I now liberate whatever is inhibiting this potential from manifesting-
I announce and affirm, declare and claim I AM empowered to
facilitate the realization of this potential. I am no longer a seeker
of enlightenment, for I now choose to be a finder of this Power.
Enlightenment calls us to accustom ourselves with the internal
qualities of knowing rather than the landscape of rational mind
questioning. I feel the rhythm of my Being transition from questioning
to knowing. I have merged with the Universal nature and all the
resources of my Soul. There is no more resistance, no manipulation,
and no need for control, nothing to block me from being constantly
informed of the ever-changing nature of All That Is. I have mastered
the capacity to understand myself, and live in the present moment,
unencumbered by past attachments or future projections. I am the
alchemist - my new found power liberates me from a life that was
trapped in circles into spirals of empowerment. In this place of
empowerment I experience myself as the Universe.
I am thankful for this character recognition of authenticity. I am
thankful for the voice that proclaimed, "you never have to be a seeker
again, you can choose to be a finder." I am thankful for enlightenment,
it is a gift that was born simply through the grace of self-realization.
I now release my word to the Creative Power of the Universe, knowing
it is done and complete, for Truth never changes. Thank you God, and
so it is.

04.22.05 - Into the Promised Land
My family's religion of tradition is Judaism, so we are in the moment of celebrating of Passover. The ritual itself is in remembrance of the Exodus of the ancient Jewish people from four hundred years of slavery under the Egyptians. The Hebrew word for Egypt is Mitzrayim, from the word Tzar meaning “narrow.” One of the most powerful ways I've found to symbolize Passover is to redirect its significance to a more metaphysical viewpoint by utilizing the historical account of the Exodus as a metaphor for the journey many of us make from our cycles of self-imposed slavery into the wilderness that leads to our own Promised Lands. In this way, Passover celebrates my going out from the personal and psychological “narrow places” that have kept me from becoming my truest self. Passover celebrates my giving birth to the Spiritual Self.
Our own internal enslavements often keep us stuck in thought patterns that lead to feelings of bitterness and frustration that may lie at the root of the oppression we inflict on those we consider wrong, threatening, or simply different. As we free ourselves from these limiting belief patterns and realize the truth of our eternal, divine spirits, we facilitate the liberation of our entire planet. We are then capable of knowing that all beings are One in Spirit. As we more deeply love and respect ourselves, we expand our capacity to love and respect others as ourselves.
The eighteenth century Rabbi Moshe Chayim Luzatto said, “Any achievement that was attained, any great light that radiated at a certain time---when that time comes around again, the radiance of that light will shine again and the fruits of that achievement will be available, for whoever is there to receive them.” The telling and the retelling of the Passover story is any opportunity for the achievement of liberation from slavery in ancient times to shine as a radiant light of consciousness for all of us here to receive this gift of enlightenment today.
May the earth be forever filled with the knowledge of G-d,
Reverend Angela
BLESSING:
Life is wonderful. All around me, I see the evidence of an intelligence so
immense, so intimately involved with creation, that I know it's involved
with me too. My life springs from the One great life, out of the formless
into form, so that Life, wonderful Life, can be expressed in greater fullness,
with greater joy, with lavish abundance, and with unlimited, wild creativity.
I let my life open up to the Intelligence that created it all, that created
me, and that is yearning to create even more wonderfulness by means of me.
I let my mind be inspired with innovative, fresh ideas. I know that the
principle of life is never bound by precedent; what's gone before is
irrelevant. In this moment, I am totally new, and Life is new in me. At this
time of Pesach I take the opportunity to nullify the limits of my own being.
Transcending into the state of Being that exclaims itself in my work, my
play, my relationships, my body, and in every facet of my life.
Thank G-d for the intelligence that is always there for me to draw upon!
It's a great blessing, and so am I. And so it is.

04.25.05 - Full Moon Eclipse
Congratulations! Now that we have moved through the lunar eclipse and have sealed new filaments of conscious light within our Being we can actually feel the strength of this new definition of Self. People on Earth will no longer be a mystery to themselves. All now move into a knowing unlike anything ever before experienced. Not one spirit has remained untouched by this latest influx of All-That-Is. For many, it may only be a twinge of heart felt stirrings. For others, there will be such a heightening of awareness the you will sense the actuating of a new reality opening up before you.
This week we may use the energies of alchemy, transmutation, and transformation as each are now embodied representatives of a higher Spiritual nature. Any issue in your life that seems to be stuck, bound, or limiting can be shifted this week through the intentional use of these energies. The Light is s-o-o-o-o-o close that many angels and archangels, Ascended Masters, mystery keepers, and emissaries of the Divine are awaiting your dispensation decreeing that they may intercede on your behalf. Entrust them with the duties of clearing and purifying as you awaken to a new role upon planet Earth.
Any emotional stresses created this week are designed to assist us in finding clarity and the harmonious words, sounds, tones, music and passion with which to express our new found identity. At those times when your spiritual alignment feels disconnected simply ask to see through the illusions presented to you. Now is the time to realize you are empowered to think, feel, say, do and live outside the box of all your previous human expectations. Allow all that comes before you reveal the Truth of who you are in order that you may consciously exercise your creative powers to eliminate that which seeds fear in your life.
The vibrational change that has occurred is likened to a crystal glass sitting upon a table that has been exposed to drastic levels of sound. Sounds that the human ear cannot detect, but when blending with the glass, it shatters. This is what has and is happening to our world my friends. This is also why we are witnessing bizarre weather, volcanic activity, earthquakes, and activity with electrical currents. The frequencies of all forms of energy are beginning to move higher and higher. Gaia, the being that we live upon, is also adjusting to the new energy around and within her. The same process that we feel, she feels. Her transformation lends itself to the tectonic plates adjusting which in turn can leave us dealing with the consequences of earth movements. Affirming prayers for her during these times will bring the greatest amount of safety for all involved.
So here, the day after the lunar eclipse, seated in your divine reality of awakening I urge you to feel the hush that is now upon the Earth. Before you get on with your week, take a moment to remember what has just happened along the journey. For me, it feels like it is early morn and I am standing in the first breath of a new dawn! and it is glorious.
How I love being a new prototype of Light!
Reverend Angela
BLESSING:
The Presence of Spirit is in every living thing, on every level,
in all Beings, and because it is there the experience of unity,
of Oneness, of pure spiritual existence and consciousness,
of delight and closeness are mine by the perfection of its nature.
The light from this sanctuary can suffuse the nearest and farthest
chambers of consciousness. My consciousness is so touched by
the descent of this Spiritual force from above that I can do nothing
other than merge with the Divine. The rupture of this Nature is
witnessed by everyone who comes before me. There is a heightening
and a widening of the consciousness, and an ascent to a new level
and a taking up of the lower levels, an assumption and new integration
of the existence by a superior power of Being which imposes its own
way of action and its character and force of infinite intelligence on as
much as it can reach through the life known as (insert your name).
I am the integration into a higher principle of consciousness which is
native to Spirit. I am blessed with a divine light into the mind, a divine
purity, passion, and ardor into the heart. This new spiritual consciousness
imposes its law upon my life demonstrating Divine intervention.
My life is lifted and filled with the great I AM, the Love of Source. I am
the awesome gift of illumined Spirit traveling the path of the omnipotent
warrior. And so it is.

04.26.05 - Designed Life
If our relationships serve us in the way the Light intended, they become wonderful opportunities for spiritual growth and transformation. Whether or not you see its significance at the time, everything in your life happens for a reason. Although you might believe this statement intellectually, if you look honestly at your life, you'll probably find that you don't act as though a beautiful design were really behind each event. Most people think their experiences are mostly random coincidences.
However, there is no such thing as a coincidence. That being true, any challenge you encounter in life is part of a design whose intent is to help you grow and change. The more arduous the difficulty, the greater the opportunity it affords you to mend your ways in order to connect to the Light. This is true even of the worst situations. In fact, the more negativity there is in an interaction, the more potential there will be to reveal Light. Daily we should observe ourselves and notice which experiences are providing the greatest potential for transformation toward the Light? Which offer the most opportunities to reinforce your spiritual beliefs and certainties?
Look at your life, and you will see that most of the challenges you face stem from your interactions with others. Your life is all about relationships with your parents, siblings, lovers, spouses, children, grandchildren, aunts and uncles, cousins, friends, neighbors, colleagues, bosses, employees, the mailman, the nanny, your doctor, your gardener . . . You name it if it's part of your life, it has a relationship attached to it.
Because of the humility of the soul we are attracted to those who reveal unresolved issues in our own lives (the karma, if you will, we have come to earth to correct). This may involve: learning to make choices in your life that have the effect of clearing rather than clouding your vision, learning to become proactive instead of reactive, learning to be a sharer rather than a receiver-for-self-alone, learning to practice forgiveness and trust.
Do you see that in every relationship there are hidden opportunities to connect and use the wisdom of Spirit, especially when it comes to obtaining dramatic improvements in our intimate relationships. Life is a spiritual journey that has a marvelous objective. The purpose of our relationships is to help us reach that objectified destination. We need to learn how to look at our relationships in this way; become aware of the beautiful gifts they contain in order that we travel more quickly along our path. If our relationships serve us in the way the Light intended, they become wonderful opportunities for spiritual growth and transformation.
Let all your relationships this week reward you with Greater Consciousness -
Reverend Angela
BLESSING:
There is One Life. That Life is the Presence of God. That Life is my life now.
I am of God -- an individualized expression of the Divine. It is natural for me
to enjoy the magnificent splendor of Infinite Nature as the common experiences
of my daily living.
The divine attributes of love and harmony come forth this day and enhance
all my relationships. Residing in the wake of this spiritual truth peace can
calm any discontent that emerges. Orienting from a peaceful center, happiness
enters and I share this joyful elation with all in my world. Spiritual wholeness
and well-being manifest as a result of my alignment with Radiant Living. I am
the energy and essence of God, which has always existed; therefore I trust
that no person can disconnect me from my Source. Even the situations and
events that appear tragic and sad are merely messages from Spirit that have
a divine purpose. I remain receptive and allow the greater good of these
scenarios to seep into my conscious awareness. I move into each day knowing
that it is a Perfect Divine Design I can let go and witness divine order come to
pass in all things that circulate within my reality.
I give thanks for this day and for the opportunity, experience, and expression
of God as Me! I give thanks for the Divine Mind as Me! I give thanks for the
Law that fulfills these intentions as stated by Me! And dearly do I give thanks
for knowing that all of this is so! And so it is. Amen.

04.27.05 - Healing Earth
AFFIRM:
Earth and all life within her Being is a flexible, flowing body of intentions.
We are moving through a sea of transformation as she connects to her
Soul's deeper conversations of Light. I support this beautiful sphere of
life with my love, compassion, and healing energies as she purges all
discords from her system. From the strength of her new connection to
Source I will be launched into a personal era of love, joy, acceptance
and passion. And so it goes - as one benefits, the many gain.
What a blessing to share all that I AM in the process of ascension.
I live in joyous participation at this present moment.
And so it is.

04.28.05 - Simply Stated
In case you were wondering what might happen today --
how it will unfold, what will be gifted, or taken away,
it all boils down to one thing:
Expectation.
Yours.
BLESSING:
The elegant universe is a dazzling Divine force of Infinite Right Action.
It is a Presence of intelligence combined with love, and It knows
exactly what to do, become, and be in each moment to achieve
perfection. I realize I am part of this evolutionary path of Light. The
companion "Source" of me has mapped out All That Is.
Today I channel this creative output of universal consciousness
throughout my human biology and physiology. I do this with an
awareness and intent of radiant, vibrant health down to the quantum
cellular level. I open my mind and allow healing perfection to travel
the heart path soothing every imbalance and discord with frequencies,
vibrations, modulations of perfect Universal Oneness. This unique
energy matrix activates the innate evolutionary codes of robust, exotic
health and challenges all illness or disease that attempts to resonate within
the cellular system. Much is changing with this accelerated consciousness
and all alien substances that do not originate from the goodness of Love
dissolve and are easily eliminated from the physical body. This temple of
Being is now a paradigm of an integral, full range harmonic repository
of vitalizing Lifewave.
Today I accept my connection with All That Is. I open to my intended
changes, and embrace the wonder of what I truly am. Joyfully I have
reached a new level of expression from an inner decision to immerse
myself in Universal Love. I am transcendence, growth, and the evolvement
of potent vital radiant health. It is done, and so the experience is.
Now to be crystal clear:
expectation not followed by action, is not expectation ...
it's just hoping.
And hoping has never achieved very much.

04.29.05 - Listening to Self
Give God the benefit of believing that the Divine hand is leading you.
And accept the anxiety of feeling yourself in suspense and incomplete.
- Chardin
As I leave for a week of independent study I want to encourage each of you to explore the mystery of your own lives while we are apart. So often we become mesmerized by the world at large that we bypass or ignore what is occurring at the subtle levels of our private reality. Yet it is within these finer realms of our own being that we find the mystic that can explain exactly what is puzzling us. How do you find this inner one? It is a simple matter of listening. I promise, even guarantee, that each time you ask a question or ponder something perplexing you are also aligning with the solution to that very concern.
We are divinely designed to have intuition, or guidance, as part of our integral system. And as universal energies bring us into higher realms of Light (wisdom) we will certainly all begin to understand that you do not have to be talented or gifted to utilize psychic energy. Depending upon where each of us is in our personal development, we will find ourselves discovering the path of "reading" energetic messages. In the not-to-distant future every being is going to be able to sense and comprehend the energy that created physicality. Just imagine all the global changes we will witness when everyone's intuitive centers are turned on!
Imagine what your life is going to look like when you know, truly know, that you have the God given ability to get up each morning and create whatever you like ... all your longings and desires fulfilled. You'll feel lighter, won't you?
So why not start today? Begin with this simple exercise: first to identify your internal voice, or guidance, I want you to make a judgment about someone. If you are like most people in the spiritual community, right after you have made the judgment a voice will sound within your mind. It is an internal voice that usually remarks that we just did something wrong (because we believe judging is negative). Practice making judgments and observing your Jiminy-Cricket consciousness reply to the behavior it just witnessed. This is the voice of guidance that you are looking for. This is the internal whisper that we s-o-o-o-o-o-o easily over ride.
Once you can observe this quiet observer when judging you can start observing what happens when you ask questions. Take two or three days and see what happens when you merely ask questions ????? even simple ones like how shall I organize my day? What errands do I need to run today? Who do I need to set appointments with? How do I connect with that one important business contact? The answers are always there. And when you begin to have a working relationship with this internal guidance system you will also begin to unplug from the external systems that you have allowed to substitute for what you could not recognize.
Good luck and I want to hear all about this adventure when I return,
Reverend Angela
BLESSING:
The Divine in all things is a transformational power of goodness
that pours its luminosity and consciousness over the movement
of Life. I rise into that Light this day, ascending into the native
empire of the absolute. I merge with a greater consciousness of
Truth-thought, Truth-sight, and Truth-light to effect dynamic
integration that illuminates (insert your name) mind, and body,
and life.
I expand into the camouflaged regions of intuition and easily utilize
the truth remembrance and truth conveyance of this phenomenal
intelligence. My consciousness ascends into this sea of stable lights
so that this native Intuition can descend into me as an inner source
of direct certitude. This pure power descending from above takes
up and transforms into its own substance the mind of thought, and
the heart and life and physical consciousness. It imparts deeper
heart-perceptions, life-perceptions and the divinations of the body
into a greater integrality and perfection of this hidden Light. It brings
its own greater movement into my will, into my feelings and emotions,
into life impulses, becomes the action of sense and sensation, the very
workings of my body consciousness. I am a higher light and force
acting as intuitive knowledge.
Uplifted and recast as a greater power of truth and illumination I give
thanks for this intuitional change. What a joy to know I am the very
providence, value, and character of this once slumbering identity
within Self. I now claim the power to meet the Supreme Spiritual
reality of all things and all beings in contactual union. And so it is.
