GOT PURPOSE?
By Sue Jones

"What is the meaning and purpose of life?" This is definitely an answerable question! Hello, I'm Sue Jones -- writer, ULC minister and teacher at the Isis Institute. I'm also a gifted psychic who for several years now has been doing Life Purpose Readings for individuals on a donation basis.

I specialize in this one type of reading, because people find them extremely useful. Also because too many well intentioned pop psychologists and "life purpose organizations" out there are promoting the misleading idea that one's life purpose and career path are the same thing. Your life purpose (soul path, life's mission) is NOT your career path. Most often, career is merely the means through which one fulfills one's true life purpose -- and that purpose usually has as much to do with BECOMING as with doing.

Every Soul, when preparing for incarnation, sets up future challenges for its further evolvement with a "lesson plan" comprising several purposes. These include such things as learning particular lessons; acquiring abilities, awarenesses and virtues; exploring facets of the human experience; and sometimes serving others. This pre-incarnate "Soul Agenda" is the basis for your Life Purpose Reading. Working under the auspices of an Ascended Master, I look into your Soul Agenda to see why you incarnated on Earth. Then I prepare an informative, well crafted report, along with comments, if appropriate, and mail it to you immediately.

YOU ARE THE MUSIC
By Andrea Arrowsmith

Bring the holiest of holies into the world through music. Bring the inner sounds of light out of the Silence to be heard by the children of men. That they may be the Sons and daughters of God they are in Reality. Bring the wordless music forth as a baptism of feelings that leaves only one feeling in the world: that of love. In that harmony, lies the Absolute in an Infinity each one grows into forever and ever. Bring forth the harmony of the inner music from that Absolute I AM, for I AM the Word in the Sound in the Silence that tells you YOU are also THAT I AM. I AM the Love of you ever present that scores all things in your life parameter as sure as the conductor’s wand synthesizes creation’s heart rhythm. I AM the note and the harmony that attunes each instrument of creation into an opus of oneness. I AM the chief musician that plays all instruments. I am the arranger of arrangement the orchestra plays and the choir sings. I AM every note, theme, prelude and finale of your soul.

Play your part. Open the curtain on every thought and action with Me in You and bring the curtain down with that Oneness on what you think, feel and do. For I AM you, your own soul in song. I AM the WORD, The Father, the Son and The Holy Spirit, the Sound in the Silence.

EGYPTIAN HIEROGLYPHICS IN AUSTRALIA
By Aluna Joy Yaxk’in

On my recent trip to Australia I heard rumors of the existence of Egyptian hieroglyphics hidden in a strange tunnel-like crevice surrounded with unusual energies. I learned that the site was also a Koori (native aboriginal) site. The Koori have not claimed the hieroglyphics as their own, nor does any other native aboriginal group. Aboriginal sites are known for their strange and powerful energies and I heard rumors of unexplainable occurrences occurring inside. The more I heard the more curious I became. Egyptians in Australia? Now that is a question I wanted to get to the bottom of.

My Aussi friend Grace and I set out in her little car with new friend Magenta, who was armed with vague directions to the site. We really didn’t know what to expect on our adventure to discover the Egyptians in Australia but were quite excited. We drove one hour north of Sydney to Hunter Valley in New South Wales. Once parked at the side of the road at an unmarked bush track, we hiked about a two miles into the bush. When we came to a curve in the track, I began to feel some shifts in the energy. It was similar to the energy I feel when I am hiking in the jungles of the Maya lands just before coming upon a hidden temple ruin. My heart was pounding and without knowing where the site was, I could point to its location. The energy could be felt over a quarter mile away! Even with the strong energy emanating from the site, it was still difficult to find the entrance. The outside of the site was guarded by several older trees and intensely beautiful ferns and greenery. We found a rock crevice and climbed up into a tunnel-like room that seemed to be a huge rock split in two. As soon as we entered the tunnel, we got our first glimpse of the amazing carvings … and our first astounding pulse of the energy.

SPEAKING YOUR TRUTH
By Irma Sawyer

It is now estimated that over 23 million Americans suffer from anxiety and depression-related problems including post-traumatic stress, generalized anxiety, panic disorder and social phobia.

Many of these people are seeking help and do not want to take prescription medications. Here are some natural alternatives.

Breathing and meditation are very important. Meditation has long been proven to reduce anxiety and stress, decrease imsomnia and increase joy. A regular practice for the anxiety or depression sufferer would be highly recommended.

In Depressive and Anxious states, there can also a profound lack of trust and faith in a Higher Power or God. Meditation is crucial to show the client that they are much more then their body or their neurosis and to provide connection with their Spirit.

Holistic healing therapies such as massage therapy, Reiki and other forms of energy work and spiritual counseling are very helpful. Massage and energy work help the body/mind to relax and release, creating a "vacation" from the cares of the world. Even if it is only for one hour, everyone needs a break from their everyday life at times.

Flower essences are a wonderful treatment remedy for anxiety and depression. Aspen, mimulus and many other remedies are helpful to alleviate these problems. Flower essences are non-toxic and can be used by most people and pets too!

I have been a flower essence practitioner for 10 years now and can create a custom essence that is intuitively blended. Please contact me for more information. I am offering a special for 1 Spirit visitors.

Prayer to receive LOVE:

Divine Spirit, Raphael and the other beings of light who wish to come to me now, Give me an EXPERIENCE of LOVE that is so real it is unmistakable. Reveal to me my NATURE as it was created in truth. Heal me of the spiritual sickness of separation that I may be home in your heart of hearts once again. And so it is. Aum. Peace. Amen.

DO NOT BE FOOLED BY STRIFE
By Bobbie Bowden

In college biology, I looked at the stages of mitosis and understood the nature of separation: it’s necessary to get on with progress. It was exciting to me to watch as the mitochondria gathered together in the middle of the cell, then migrated to the far ends, and when the mass had been achieved, the cell split.

I don’t remember the terror and pain of that separation. But I can recount to you – as you could to me about your own journey – the terror and pain of the many separations I have endured as an individuated being walking around on these two sturdy legs.

Fire fights in the Church of the Nativity? Parents rejoicing that their children martyr themselves in explosions of fire and metal? The violence of the separation tearing the wholeness out of the navel of the Western World is enough to send us scurrying to either end of our cell-awareness.

But we won’t fall for it. We will rejoice in the new day’s rising sun, in the burbling of our babies, in the victories of the heart and spirit in every way they come to us. If we can play a role as we watch others struggle in the midst of the fire, each of us will take the action we are guided to do. Each of us is a cell. The parts will rush to heal the wound. Everything is needed: singing, weeping, writing to our Congress people, meditating and praying, the making of powerful art, bringing medicine and support to our wounded brothers and sisters.

Rejoice. Sing. Pray. Hold each other closely and send messages of hope in every way possible. This virus is a hoax.

ANIMALS OF SPIRIT ~ MESSAGES FROM THE ANIMALS
By Catherine Ceci

Dogs: "We come in many shapes and breeds to facilitate rescuing the emotional body, collectively, of humankind. It is a mission we agreed to at a soul level, when we were spirit, before manifestation of our physical body.

It was decided by our creator, who is also your creator, the need of emotional healing on the planet Earth was of such magnitude that a plan was needed to reach the hearts of humans. Thus we embodied in the many dog forms you see today.

Some of you so touched by our plight of homelessness and hunger and neglect from other humans have formed your own rescue missions for us and for that we are grateful. You are helping and working with us in an agreement of our souls we made long ago to bring to the attention of human kind what happens when Balance and Harmony of the natural world are disturbed. We are a mirror reflection of what happens when lack of Reverence is in action. What we suffer is a sign of what humans will and do already suffer least they regain their course in Respect and Caring for all life forms on their planet.

We feel this Healing is happening now and we THANK YOU, those of you who have opened your heart and home to us, for you are not only helping us, but you are assisting the planet by raising the global consciousness of Healing and Reverence for Life."

CHALLENGING SITUATIONS
by Ken Page

Negative relationships and situations are not in our lives to show us how stuck we are. Instead, they offer us a reflection of what we think about ourselves and what we feel we deserve. If we find ourselves in situations we do not prefer, we have given ourselves a very clear opportunity to change.

One way to allow ourselves a chance to find out and discover who and what we are is by seeing so many examples, and creating interactions with a number of different individuals, that represent who we are not. This is a very effective method of validating our true selves. Looking back on different relationships, we might say, "That wasn't me, and that wasn't me either. This is what I really am all about."

Why would we create a series of wrong relationships. Either we have forgotten who we are, or we are afraid to accept who we are. As long as we resist being our natural, balanced selves and we resist loving ourselves, we will not attract harmonious, long lasting, and healthy relationships.

Once we have unconditional love for ourselves, we will attract the right relationships, even as we move through changes.

PLANETARY LINEUP AND MERCURY RETROGRADE
By Patty Finlayson, PMA

The planetary lineup of the planets in Gemini is happening now, with 14 May the day when the Moon, Moon’s north node, Mercury, Venus, Mars and Saturn are all in Gemini, with Jupiter close behind in Cancer. Look west at twilight to see this beautiful sight.

Gemini is the sign of talking and negotiating, which is happening now in the Middle East. Instead of being apprehensive about this lineup, look to the positive characteristics of Gemini: diplomatic persuasive speech, mental approach to situations, and the ability to bring all sides to agreement by seeing what they have in common and how harmony can be achieved.

On the lighter side, your life should have more friends visit, communication with your siblings should increase, with this lineup being mostly lighthearted and social. See my web site for a full discussion of how this lineup is important to you and how Pluto in the sky figures in.

Mercury goes retrograde on 15 May until 8 June, so be careful of signing papers, making commitments and making travel plans. If anything glitches with your automobile or equipment, look to the electrical part first. Making travel arrangements before Mercury goes retrograde is ok; afterwards you need to be very careful because your transportation can be changed. Check and double check your arrangements. Signing papers during a Mercury retrograde can be difficult because mistakes are made. If you must sign something, insure that you have the ability to check back on the terms after Mercury goes direct. A full discussion of retrograde Mercury is on my website. Back to T of C.
COMMUNICATING WITH A PASSED OVER LOVED ONE
by Debra White Burch

There is LIFE after death of the body.

I have had humans seeking a connection to ones that have "passed over" and I have had Spirits come to me seeking my aid in getting a message to someone left on earth. In mediating between the two plains, there are certain things I have come to understand. When a person "passes" and there is any unfinished matters on the earth plain, that Spirit does not go to the Light until there is resolution. This has been referred to as "Limbo" or even "Hell" by some religions.

When a Spirit contacts a human, it takes on the likeness of a human shell that would be recognized by the human whose contact is sought. The shell serves as a reference point. Hence, one person may "see" the same loved one at a different stage than another person, when contact is made. Anyone is capable of making this connection. It is merely a matter of how open and allowing one can be. Truly open and allowing individuals serve as beacons to those "passed over" and that is why they are quite often the ones with whom contact is initially made.

Another interesting point is that when a Spirit has not gone to the Light at the time of "death," it will take the intercession of a human to ask for assistance from the "Angelic, Divine, Ascended Masters... plane" for that one to be assisted, guided and brought to the Light, for that Spirit is no longer on the plane of "free choice." When all earthly matters are resolved and Spirit reunites fully with the "LIGHT" - "ALL THAT IS" then there is only ecstacy or "Heaven" as some would label it.

If you would like my assistance in contacting a "passed over" one, check out my website and e-mail or call me. Back to T of C.
HAVE YOU HEARD THE CALL?
By Janny Adkins, RN, BS, HNC, CHTP

The trumpet of Archangel Gabriel has sounded calling you to your true self. This call is reverberating throughout all time and space, asking you to listen to the wisdom that is pouring forth from your own heart. You are a co-creator with Spirit. The Christed Consciousness is awakened. The waiting is over. Have you heard the call?

I believe you have or you wouldn't be reading this article. The Christed Consciousness Energy has been awakened within all human beings who have been praying for "Heaven on Earth". Even though your third dimensional world has not changed, you know that there is change coming. One can feel it in the wind. Many of us are also seeing drastic changes in our third dimensional lives as well. Some of us are confused, and searching for new answers, new places, and new relationships. A dear astrologer friend of mine said to me, "If you are not confused these days, you are not paying attention."

It is time for all light workers (people who know there is something more than just the third dimensional experience) to stop intellectualizing, and put action into beliefs and philosophies.We have read enough books, taken enough seminars, and talked to enough psychics.In other words, it is time to make new choices that support the spiritual principles of light and love that we have professed.It is time to become a verb, a being of action. Heaven cannot be made on Earth unless those of us who profess we are love and light, apply that profession of faith to our individual lives.

Have you lost everything that formally defined your life like a job, relationships, house, and family? Perhaps you have not actually lost your family but has your relationship with them changed? The same question would apply to your relationship with your career, church, and educational system. The old way of living and thinking and being is passing away. It is painful only if we hold on tightly to the old way of being. It is time to face our fears, whatever they may be.

For me, I am moving from a place that I have lived for 55 years, The Midwest; Iowa. I am frightened, but I know that true courage is not the absence of fear, but feeling the fear, and making the choice of one's heart. I also believe and know that there is tremendous energy stored behind our fears. This energy is waiting to be released into our lives. It is the energy of creativity. The first step is facing the fear and not allowing that fear to control us.

I have always been drawn to the sun and ocean, and for as long as I can remember. I have always waited, not so patiently, for the summer months to come. I knew the sun, humidity, and higher temperatures would energize and inspire me. My close friends always would think me crazy because of my love of the sun, humidity, and warmth, especially the humidity. They always would say that they were immobilized and lethargic with the humidity. I felt happy, and, as I said energized. Finally after my entire life changed from a relationship and career perspective, I am faced with the opportunity to go anywhere I desire. What a wonderful opportunity, and what a frightening one. Where would I go what would I do?

I have traveled all over the US the past four months looking for a sign, looking for a message from God that this was my true home. This sign would tell me where I needed to be. But I did not have that moment of realization and I was very disappointed. I traveled to the Emerald Coast in northwestern Florida. As I came into Pensacola and headed toward the bay and the "Three Mile" Bridge, my heart leapt for joy. The sun was shining on the water, and my heart seemed to open up before me at the endless view of breathtakingly beautiful, blue green water. Suddenly, I understood that the signs I was looking for were within my heart. As I have said many times to class participants, we look everywhere for the signs except inside of our hearts. We do teach best what we need to learn the most!

The call from Archangel Gabriel has been sounded, calling us to listen to our hearts and the wisdom of the awakened Christed Consciousness within all of us. Listen to your heart; it will guide you. Stop intellectualizing, and start living the light and love that you are. The paradise of Heaven on Earth will be manifest though you.

Janny is available for phone consultations, long distance and face to face healing sessions. She teaches a workshop on Twelve Steps of Co-Creation, Reiki and Karuna Reiki Classes. You may contact her through her website or call toll free 877-539-6845. Back to T of C.
CONIFERS: THE MOST ANCIENT ANTIBIOTIC
by Marie Allizon

Conifers are among the most ancient species of the plant kingdom and the first known to produce Essential oils. Cedar was used for construction of boats and housing that were built to last. This wood resisted fungus and bacteria due to its high content of Essential oil.

Conifers are in fact pro-biotic (pro means for or to promote and bio means life) while anti-biotics stands for against life. Conifers’ Essential oils, not only eliminate bacteria and fungus but promote a healthy life by boosting the immune system. It also helps improve our positive and joyful thinking besides refilling our energy reserve.

1. Diffusing 10-15 drops of Balsam Fir or a conifer blend (“Conifer”, “Voice of the Ancestors”, “Indian Spirit”, “Christmas Joy”, “Oxygen Up”) will not only purify the air but will leave a very pleasant aroma in your living room. If you are tired and need a quick boost, apply 5-10 drops of those blends to your lower back and massage it.

2. White Cedar, also known as Arborvitae, or Cedar leaf can help fight arthritis and will get rid of toenail fungus and warts.

3. Canadian Tsuga, also known as Hemlock Fir will help fight lung ailments and is a good support during any transition period: new job, moving, birth, marriage, and most of all when people are dying or getting divorce and need to let go. (“Fearless”, “Protection” and “Rainbow Bridge” are three of our blends)

4. 10 drops of Red Pine in a massage oil are excellent for bad circulation (cold feet etc.)

Remember Mother Nature next time your system is experiencing difficulties. For more information on the conifers, here is Mikael Zayat’s article on the Canadian conifers. Back to T of C.
