Choosing a fork in the road

We’re all been there. You know, you set out for a destination and somehow, you get sidetracked. You end up on what seems to be a detour. You may come to a sign and take an unknown road out of pure curiosity. You may never reach the original destination. It may bother you or, you may forget about your initial intention completely. Upon later reflection, you may wonder if you were ever meant to reach the place in your initial thoughts. Maybe that quest had a different purpose.

Angels are always watching over you.  As you ask, they perform deeds to help you. What if you suddenly realized what you assumed were detours actually led you to the path you were meant to travel?  At times, your sense of direction may be misguided, yet, you go on as if all is well. Who or what might put new ideas into your head at different phases in your life? Could this be your guardian angels reminding you of their presence? Helping you get back on the right track?

Each step you take is either a step toward or away from your true self. Each choice you make can enable you to move into your true talent and true identity or, further cloud your perspective. Learning the difference is part of the reason you’re alive. Your guardian angel is ready to help. When was the last time you reached out for heavenly assistance? Why not ask for what you're thinking about right now?

Consider a woman who was driving to deliver material to a prospective client.  Encounters with heavy traffic and road construction caused her to rethink the trip midway. After waiting for a time, she turned her car around and began to retrace her steps. Soon after that, she came across a sign she hadn’t noticed before. The sign directed her attention to a different client prospect that had an office nearby. Although it turned out to be closed, she did find another unanticipated prospect. This new client turned out to be larger than the other two prospects combined.

Why did she set out for the original destination and never actually reach it? Why did this woman suddenly notice that alternative road? Where did that sign come from? Did her perception change? What about her energy vibration? Did she find something because she was ready and looking? Maybe her originally planned trip was actually meant to prepare her for what she found. It wasn't coincidence that she discovered an angel T-shirt with wings on the back that afternoon. It was another positive sign.

Why haven't you seen them yet?

Since angels seem to keep quiet and hidden, you may wonder why it is you haven't sensed them.  You may not yet realize the frequency of your thoughts, the nature of your emotions, and level of judgment can obscure or expand your senses beyond your wildest dreams.  Ask yourself a few questions to help guide your journey:   

1) Why do you wish to see angels?  If you seek heavenly proof to bolster your faith in yourself or other things, then you need to understand what you experience is determined by your own belief systems, confidence and sceptism.  You see and feel based on external conditioning as well as your own core ideas from within.   

2) What do you fear?  If you imagine angels might be scary or, you don't think you've earned it, think again.  Whatever you encounter, nothing can destroy you.  At this moment, regardless of a physical body, you are energy.  If you fear this life is all there is, well, what if you shifted that view? To move beyond fear is to learn to raise your vibration and begin to sense things you had missed before.  Angels transcend human views of time and space.  They work divine magic in their own ways.

3) Do you really know what you're looking for?  You store up knowledge and experience that feeds your expectations.  Your understanding of angels and how they present themselves could be limited to popular culture or what you've been told.  Consider listening to yourself.  If angels are examples of unconditional love, they will be energy sources that are comforting and reassuring.  Perhaps its time to build on what you think you already know.  Learn to look beyond your preconceived notions. 

Past-Life Regression with the Angels

As you learn to feel more comfortable communicating with your angels, this will enable you to discern details about your current life you may have suppressed or forgotten. People who choose to explore past-life regression in more depth can evolve to heal themselves of phobias, addictions and nagging emotional issues. If you desire to go further than exploring your own past lives, you may take courses that qualify you to assist others explore past lives and help them resolve issues.

To believe in angels is to realize they are around to help you learn to help yourself at your pace. They won't do anything unless you ask. To do that, its necessary to know what you want. This in mind, realize angels won't act to live your life or learn your lessons for you. That is your responsibility. As you act to help yourself, you may benefit from exploring past-lives through meditation and hypnosis. Angels can help:

1) Belief in past-life regression isn't required. To go into self-hypnosis with a specific question is all that's needed. Relax. Close your eyes and meditate. Ask for the karmic cause of a current mindset or repeated bad experience. Details you receive will emerge from your sub-conscious mind. You already hold these answers. Whether or not you were the person you see in a past lifetime is less relevant. In the end, what counts is the insight and understanding you gain into your present issue. What might explain your 'here and now?' Angels can help you build self-confidence.

2) Be open to acknowledging possible reasons for blockages To reap benefits on the horizon requires you remain open to recognizing possible reasons for your emotional issues or blockages. They relate to patterns which have evolved in this lifetime and during previous lifetimes. You have the freedom to reach out to listen to instructional CDs, to read materials, attend workshops, consult angel guides and work with earthly experts. Take any steps you sense will help you reassure yourself.

3) Prepare to create healthier habits. Decide you will explore the language of your patterns and move beyond it. Progress hinges on your conscious decision to plan for a different future. As you work accompanied by your angels, you begin to sense what you hope to gain from each experience. Treat reflection as a valuable experience. If you ask, your angels will encourage you to raise awareness about your thoughts.

Doreen Virtue & Angel Intuitive training

Angel awareness or angel intuition is something we all have inside ourselves. Participating in Doreen Virtue's 2007 Angel Intuitive Conference on the Gold Coast shows me why 800 Lightworkers come together for teaching and to exchange ideas and experiences. Have you ever wondered whether you may have heightened sensitivities? Does alternative healing appeal? Perhaps you've never heard the word "Lightworker" before, or wonder how it relates to angels. Choose to explore options.

Lightworkers assist people to connect with angels. They encourage as they also help themselves.  You might explore angel medicine and healing techniques that can apply to wherever you are, whatever you do.  You might ask yourself who is psychic and why people are drawn to become healers and soul -seekers on different levels.  Why work with angels? Why assume they could help you at all? From the moment you believe in yourself, you discover you exert power.  What if you began to realize connecting with angels is like discovering benefits of your own psychic ability?

You already believe in angels or you wouldn't be reading this.  You may simply have forgotten how to connect and hear what they have to tell you.  People drawn to do lightwork are the kinds of people who feel born to empower others, to heal the spirit, to learn new ways of thinking and to pass them on.  As you draw another person's attention to how he or she can heal differently, life is greatly enriched.

This event engages participants to sharpen practical techniques, and their inner thought process. Regardless of whether angel awarness tools are primary income-generating tools, participants all gain something.  Physicians, teachers, academics, students, counsellors, business people, reiki masters, professional clairvoyants and people who have never done angel readings or dream interpretation before, have come together to share thoughts and grow together. Rituals and ceremonies have also been used to demonstrate the value of power animals and totems.

Consider that you too can discover more about your soul. Listen to the echoes of your inner voice.  What does it tell you? Why you exist right now? How do you feel destined to contribute to this world? Angels will tell you its all part of your learning process.  Angels surround you with loving messages to guide you.  Ask yourself are you willing to learn to de-condition yourself? Are you ready to reflect, to think and see anew? Decide to harness the power and significance of each moment.

Keep your vision in the light

Its useful to recognize we're missing parts of the dream, the story we're in the process of living and putting together.  We are complicated beings.  Throughout events that unfold, its reassuring to know we're never alone.  Angels are an endless source of inspiration that guide us to embrace more meaningful opportunities.

Angel guides will tell you we each have free will, no matter which plane we're on.  To them, the state we call death leads the soul to another plane of existence.  As you become attuned to your emotions and feelings, you notice you walk through different doors, relationships, scenarios and situations on Earth. Thus, the prospect of eventually existing and passing through different stages of learning in other dimensions may begin to make more sense.  You can always sprout wings and fly.

Yet, wherever you exist now, recognize you still have work to do.  We each have roles to perform.  Nurturing faith and trust in ourselves will assist us to do our best.  All fear is merely a line of illusion.  You can step over it much easier than you think.  You may know people who make their lives more difficult than need be, all because they haven't yet understood how they view themselves and the world is illusory.  Keep your vision on the light. Life can be like a kaleidoscope of change.
