Divine Love: Exercise 6.14

Yes Dear One,

Today’s exercise will be good for people who feel they need to trust more but don’t seem to be able to believe that they already trust.

First see yourself standing in a puddle of water. It is a rainy day and you have on rain boots so your feet aren’t wet but the rest of you is. You look across the street and see some shelter so you decide to head over. As you are walking across the street (you have already checked and don’t see any cars coming) you begin to wonder why you are here, what you’re doing in life and what you want to achieve. You check in with your Inner Guidance to see what some of those answers might be and in fact they line up with things that you already subconsciously knew you wanted. You continue across the street but when you get to the other side you begin to feel a bit down. You wonder if you are on the right track in your life and why things aren’t moving faster in your life than they are and you come to the conclusion that it’s because you don’t trust enough.

Then suddenly you feel that you are in the company of a Divine Being and soon afterwards you see a beautiful ball of light before you. You feel overcome with love and you look at this lovely being who is smiling back at you. He says to you, “Dear One, you have no idea where you are or how far you’ve come. You are always in the process of comparing yourself with others so you don’t truly know where you are on your own path. Come let me show you something.” So you take this lovely Being’s hand and he guides you to a nearby pond. As you look down into the pond you begin to see all the times in your life when you had gut feelings or inspirations that you followed and also the times that you didn’t. But you notice that lately the times that you didn’t follow them are fewer and fewer and that it appears that you almost always follow your instincts these days. You are a little bit surprised and you say, “But I thought that I needed to trust more or that things would look differently or I that I would feel differently when I trusted fully.”

“Dear One,” your Divine Guide says, “You already trust. There is no degree of trust – either you do or you don’t. And you do. Moreover, you value that guidance and you follow it and THAT is what is important. You seem to believe that it would feel differently or should look differently but that is because you are in the process of comparing yourself or your journey to something that you believe to be the highest path. But Dear One, the only truth path you need to concern yourself with is your own and if you are following your Divine Guidance you are already on THE highest path for you. This is it. And as long as you continue to follow the small impulses and inspirations you receive you ARE trusting. We are ever grateful for that and we would love for you to give thanks for the trust that you already have rather than believing that you aren’t doing a good job or looking for ways you don’t trust enough. Will you do that for us?" You smile and laugh and can barely talk because you feel so joyful but you finally say yes. Your Diving Being says to you, “Well, that is all we can ask. We love you so very much, Dear One.” And with that, the Divine Being and his beautiful ball of light vanish from your sight although you still feel his energy around you to help guide you forward.

We love you dearly.

Love all of us in the Angelic Realm,
Archangel Raphael

New Segment! Notes from Chernise 1.1

Hey Guys!
First of all, please pardon the formatting. For some reason it's gone wonky on me so it's very, very basic but I'm still sending you a whole lotta love. My latest Angel exercise is alllllllmost up (please forgive it, it has summer-itis) and I've got some goodies for you in the form of juicy divine guidance so I hope you like it! Also, this is a rather long post but it's worth hanging in till the end ;)

The Gift of the Green Monster A.K.A. Reasons to Love Jealousy
Pt.1: Re-qualification
OK, so this one is no joke (although I will try to throw some in). I don't know about you, but now that I've signed up for emails from loads of movers and shakers in the spiritual field, I've often been visited by the little green monster. These people are being of divine service to life while reaping loads of financial benefits and frankly it was pi**ing me off! Two very clear events from this experience led me to 1. Re-qualify the energy of this not-so-welcomed-friend (which is funnily enough the color of the heart chakra) and 2. Actually be grateful for it.

The first experience was with a woman that I'd never met who sent me a weekly email. She and her partner created an email that felt like it was sent from a dear friend. It was clever, loving, full of helpful information and offered their services at relatively affordable rates. Between the talents of the two partners it seemed like they would be able to offer valuable assistance in the fields of nutrition, romance, business, life and more. The only issue was that each time I read these emails I had a hard time seeing the love because I felt so envious of how wonderfully everything was packaged (it even felt organic and not to package-y). So at the rate of one email a week, that energy was building itself into a veritable monster. Then one lovely day I was sitting on my bed reading one of her emails on my smartphone, when I felt such a strong feeling of envy and jealousy that it was almost palpable. I remember saying to myself, "What the heck am I doing? I don't even know this woman. All she's trying to do is send me love and further her business and I'm sending her energetic fireballs?!" I decided to put an end to it and I’ll give you the steps I followed so you’ll be able to do the same.

1) Call on Archangels Michael and Raphael to sever any cords of low-vibration energy that exist between you and this person. Whenever we connect with someone (it doesn’t have to be in person, there just has to be a strong energetic connection) we are sending them energy when we think of them. Since all energy you send out has to come through you, it’s worth working on what you're sending out because you will also feel the effects of the energy you give to others.

2) Ask for the Violet Flame to consume all energy that has been mis-qualified between you and this person (or situation) until it is all transmuted to love and light. Energy can be nether created nor destroyed so what's left to do with energy of the lower vibration nature? Re-qualify it! To find out more about the amazing powers of the Violet flame, click here: http://www.saintgermainfoundation.org/body3.htm.

3) Finally, send the fullness of the love of your entire Being (on all levels) to this person. You can visualize sending them pink & gold loving light, or just being happy, whatever. Just send them anything that feels like love (p.s. this will raise your vibration, too)

This particular situation happened about three months ago. The wild thing is that about a week after I did this, I went to an amazing 1-day workshop for empowering women. During one of the day’s sessions I was paired up with a woman who I did a really powerful exercise with. I basically ended up bawling in this woman’s arms and she held the loveliest space for me the entire time. Afterwards, she even made an effort to include me in her group’s next exercise (even though I wasn’t supposed to be in her group.) At the end of the program we exchanged numbers and guess who she turned out to be? The woman that I had been sending the energetic fireballs too!!!! I couldn’t believe it. I've learned that the Universe can be very sly ;)

In hindsight it all makes sense: I felt emotions of an intense vibration (envy, jealousy) and they were repeatedly directed at her. According to the law of attraction, it was just a matter of time before she manifested in my world in some form or other. But, because I re-qualified that energy with love, it changed the entire nature of my experience with her. I also know of other times where I didn’t clearly catch the energy I was sending out and when I met the object of those lower vibration energies, it didn’t turn out so well.

Pt. 2: Gifts Galore!
I’m really blessed to have some amazing people in my life now that also happen to be dear friends. But when the green monster poked his head up because of an awesomely crafted business email from a friend, I decided that was it. I immediately asked Archangel Raphael what was going on and what to do about it because I only want to radiate love to my friends. I’m paraphrasing Raphael’s answer because it was about a week ago, but this is pretty much it.

When you feel high vibrations (eg. joy) about something that is how you know that you like it. The energy is calling you because it is a match. There are plenty of things in the world that you feel indifferent about (eg. bungee jumping, motor biking) and that is because they are not a match for you. By the same token, if there’s something that you want that you are close to achieving you will feel good. An example is if you want to weigh 180 pounds and you’re getting close to achieving that weight. If you want to weigh 180 pounds and you are nowhere near achieving that goal, you are likely to not feel as good and maybe even feel envious of people that are already at that weight. That is exactly what is happening here. The other person is experiencing something that you want to experience and for whatever reason you don’t feel that it is within your reach and because of that you feel envy.

But the thing to know is that now you know for sure that you do want that thing. There is a reason that everything happens in the time and in the order that it does. There is a reason that that particular person got there before you. Maybe it is because they wanted to be of assistance to people in that area and if you re-qualify that energy they might even be able to become a mentor and shorten the process for you. You must trust that everything is happening in Divine order and as it should. Also, that person’s path is that person’s path. If you are following your guidance, you are on your highest path. If you are not following your guidance, you are still on your path. Your path will not become the other person’s path because it is not necessary and it is not desirable. Even if you do the same thing as another, the way that you manifest it will be unique and necessary to all of life. Also, since all parts of your life are arranged for your benefit (your growth, your joy, your freedom) that person is here as a GUIDE FOR YOU! Yes, that’s it! This person has been sent to assist you on your path in some way. Here is what you can say to them (in your mind is fine) when you see someone doing what you want to do and you catch the beginnings of birthing a low vibration emotion. Please note that you are saying this about the person as well as the thing that you were envious of.

“Yes! Thank You! That is for me! Thank you for being a guide and showing me what I want!”

Immediately afterwards, ask the Universe to assist you in obtaining that which you desire in the most joyful, effortless, loving and fastest way for the highest good of all concerned. This will help maintain high vibration connections between you and your loved ones as well as continually raise your own vibration, help you attract that which you desire to manifest at a faster rate (you were blocking it before with the lower vibration energy) and continue the practice of being aware of and owning your energy. AA Raphael

Empowering, non? See what I mean about a gift :) The title of Marianne Williamson’s book, “A Return to Love” seems fitting because that’s pretty much the highest thing that we can do in any situation where we realize we’re not in a loving space: choose to return to love. If we look at everything as an opportunity to do this we will be amazed at how life transforms before our eyes.

So that’s it for now, My lovelies!
Thank's so much for reading my blog and allowing me to give in a way that brings me such joy :)

I send you all loads of angelic hugs and I hope to see you during my September Specials!

All the love!
Chernise
xoxo

Divine Love: Exercise 6.13

Yes Dear Ones,

Today's exercise will be good for people that seem to want to try really hard to do what they're supposed to do when really they should allow things to flow and allow themselves to flow with it.

First, see yourself outside on a sunny, clear day. You look around and notice that the streets are very busy and you want to cross to the other side but there are bikes and cars and busses and people. You hear a little voice inside saying, "Wait and all will be fine" but you are also looking at your watch because you are already late for an appointment. You decide that despite your inner guidance you are going to cross the busy street. You take the first step forward and someone accidently brushes your arm. Then you get a little closer to the curb and someone else brushes your arm but a little more roughly this time. You are determined to get to the other side and keep moving forward because now you have the "walk" sign but as you are about to step off of the sidewalk "whoom!" Someone rushes by and completely knocks you down on your back.

You look up and ask, "Why?" and suddenly your inner voice is strong and says, "You know why. There is no reason to ever believe that ignoring your inner guidance will take you where you want to go in a way that you would really like to experience getting there. When you follow your guidance things will unfold in ways that are easier, more relaxed, more joyful and for the highest good of all concerned." So you say to your guidance, "But really, no harm could have come from me crossing the street." Then out of nowhere, a bus skids around the corner too quickly and speeds by at an angle that knocks over a mailbox. You say, "Wow. That could have been me out there." And your guidance says, "Yes. You can imagine how unpleasant that would have been. Well actually, don't imagine it. But really, when you have guidance you will do well to follow it because it will make your life easier and more joyful. We have a high interest in your enjoying your life and being as divinely productive as possible. And if you let us help you, we will make sure that your experience of life is effortless. Will you do that?" And you say, "Yes." At that moment your cell phone rings and it's the person that you are supposed to meet saying that he's running late. You say, "That's fine" and wink at your inner guidance. You can't explain what it feels like but you know that your inner guidance is winking back at you.

All is lined up for you Dear Ones. Really. Learning to release resistance to following your inner guidance will be one of your biggest advantages and greatest powers in life.

We love you dearly and will speak to you again soon.

Divine Love Exercize: 6.12

Yes Dear Ones,

This exercise will be good for people who want to move forward on their spiritual path but would like a little clarity first.

First, see yourself surrounded by a large golden circle of light that extends about 5 feet on either side of you. Imagine that this circle of light is pulsating and as it pulsates, this golden light is being infused into every cell of your body, right down to you DNA until you completely merge with it. Then imagine a blue and a pink light above you that are the same size as the current ball of light that you are in. See each light, one at a time, merge with the golden light that you have become one with. Once all three of the lights have come together, you should see in the center a light that is stronger and more radiant than the surrounding light. This is where your heart connects with the light of your Divine Soul Being. Within this heart, within this light, is the powerful seed for everything you wish to do, be, have or feel in this lifetime along with how to accomplish it. This light is the center of your existence and a power source for your physical self. In this light, you and the divine are one.

You will do well to see yourself in this space often. And whenever you have questions about your life or about the next best steps for you to take, make sure to do this meditation before you ask yourself these questions, and you will be sure to be clearly guided along your path. Things that you didn’t even know that you desired or needed but that are best for you will be presented to you in a way that you will not be able to miss and that all parts of your being will be aligned with.

We love you dearly.

Divine Love Exercise: 6.11

Today’s exercise will be good for people who feel that they do not believe that things are happening for their highest good and would like some assistance.

First, see yourself standing in a room that is orange and has many doors. You don’t know which one to go through, for in fact you do not know where you want to go. There is a sort of general feel of hopelessness because you don’t even know why you are here. You know that you want to move forward but having no goal and not knowing where any of the doors lead anyway is sort of a conundrum. You look upwards and see the ceiling and then it is as if you can see the sky through the ceiling. You have a feeling of expansiveness that you did not have before and you wonder where this feeling comes from. So you look within and it is as if you feel the tiniest seed of light within your being that says, “Listen to me. I am here and I am of value.” While still experiencing this feeling of expensiveness you tune into the little, light, voice that seems to be speaking to you within. It is barely a whisper but that voice says that you want to feel good and that you want to do something related to the arts. Then you look at yourself and the little voice and say, “Really? I’ve never been interested in the arts before. I only know that I like math and that I would like to be of assistance to others. But this voice within me is saying “Art” and I feel good about that so I guess I will listen to that voice.” Then you look back at the doors and it is as if there are labels on the doors now and you know that you didn’t see them before or rather you don’t think that you saw them before. You see one that is marked with the words “Art” so you decide to walk through that door and when you go through you feel amazing. You find that there are many people doing things that are related to the arts and you feel connected to the people and to what they are doing in a way that you had never imagined. You begin to talk to someone about what they are doing and before you know it you are in the employ of some lovely people who do some lovely things and you feel wonderful.

So you are walking around feeling good about the fact that you listened to this voice or even that you noticed that it was there and just by acknowledging that little voice you feel its call again. It says to you “Love” and you wonder what it means by “Love” because you feel that you love what this job is offering you and you love the people you work with but you listened to the voice before and it brought you someplace wonderful so you decide to listen to it again. Then you turn around and notice that people seem to have words floating above their heads and you definitely didn’t see that before. There are only a few people that are nearby whose words you can read clearly but there is one person that approaches and you can see the word “Love” floating above their head. More importantly, you can feel the love emanating from that person. You introduce yourself and you strike a friendship over time. You find that it is not a love relationship in the sense of romantic love but there is a friendship so deep and honest and so healing that is clearly love. So again you thank the little light within for presenting itself to you and for the fact that when you acknowledged it and decided to follow it, even without knowing how, there was a way presented for you.

Then you seem to hear it speak again simply because you were thinking about it and this time the voice says, “Now.” You wonder what it means but you say to yourself, “Well, it is speaking and I am committed to listening. So,…“Now.” What does this mean?” And in the instant you ask you feel as if you are connected to all of life. You feel, see, hear and understand things in a way that you never knew possible. You can see how all of life is connected and how every event that you experienced has brought you to this wonderful spot in your life. And how “Now” is in fact the best place to be for here there is no worry, you are provided for, you have the most power to love and to do what brings you your highest joy, and to be of assistance to others.

Again you thank this little light within which you realized isn’t so little anymore and you give thanks that you now know and you trust and believe - because you have seen, felt and experienced that truth - that you are divinely guided. You know that there is more to life than you believed previously and that if you follow your internal voice, you will be lead to the most miraculous of experiences. Also, you will be able to spread the light of that truth out into the world just by the simple fact that you believe.

Divine Love: Exercise 6.10

This exercise will be one for when you feel that you’ve gotten off track and you would like to get back on.

The first thing to do is to close your eyes and see yourself standing in a white circle of light that expands until it’s about 10 feet on either side of you. Then look upwards and imagine that you can see a tunnel of light that connects you directly to your Divine Soul Being. Then imagine a lovely silver cord, a blue cord and also a gold cord of light extending down this tunnel and then anchoring in your heart.

From that point you should open your eyes and get a pen and paper. Draw a large circle on the paper and in the center you should draw a dot. This dot is to represent you. Around that dot you should draw little stars or circles and these represent the many options and directions that you can take in your life. From the center of the circle until the external edge of the circle, draw a straight line and know that any type of line you draw between you (the dot) and your connection to God (the edge of the circle) will represent your spiritual path.

Then pick any stars that you feel drawn to and connect them in any fashion you like as long as the line begins in the center and continues to the edge. You can spiral around, you can draw a straight line between you and the edge, you can sort of squirrel around a bit – whatever you’d like to do. Underneath the circle you should write, “This is my path of highest joy. This is what I have come to do in this lifetime and I decree and declare that I am worthy of this wonderful journey. I will do whatever I possibly can to stay on this path because it is truly for my absolute highest good and greatest joy as well as for the absolute highest good for of all of life. I give thanks that this path is presented so clearly to me and is also easy for me to find my way back to if I feel that I have strayed a bit.”

You can simply hang this drawing somewhere you see it on a regular basis or keep it handy for whenever you find that you’ve fallen a bit off track. Whenever you choose to look at it, first see yourself surrounded by the large circle of light with the cords and tunnel of light that connect you to the Divine, then look at the image you drew and then read what you wrote with your own hands underneath the image.

You will be amazed at how this helps you to stay on track.
We love you dearly and will speak to you soon.

Divine Love: Exercise 6.9

Yes Dear Ones,

So this one will be very helpful for people who seem to not know what they want to do with their life but would like to.

First, see yourself standing outside in a field with a friend on a snowy day. You look at each other and then you say, “Well, what do we do? We’re here in the field and it is snowing. I wanted us to do something but it doesn’t look like we have many options.” Luckily you have a sled so you two get on the sled and slide down the hill together having a wonderful time along the way. When you get to the bottom you see your house so you decide to go in and take refuge from the cold.
Again, you look at your friend and say, “Well, you didn’t answer before. What do you think we should do?” Your friend gets up and runs into the other room, so you follow. You begin playing video games and have a blast because this is the dance game you love. You are just having a wonderful time with each other and don’t even realize that you are stuck inside on a snowy day. Then after you danced for a while, and you have done as much dancing with that game as you can, you realize you are hungry so you both get a bite to eat.

Then you say to your friend, “Well, I guess you’re not going to say anything or try to answer this question but I have to ask. What should we do today? The day is going by fast and we still don’t have a plan for what we are going to do.” Your friend takes a sip of the milk that he is drinking and smiles at you and says, “Really? Do you not see what is happening?’ So you ask, “What is happening?” and he says, “Sometimes it is nice to have a plan but sometimes it is enough to just take action of some sort, for when you do that you will be lead to something that brings you more joy than if you just stayed in the same place. It doesn’t matter what we do as long as we do something that raises our vibration and brings us joy.” And you say, “But what about plans and goals? What about those things? Aren’t they good and helpful?” Your friend says, “Yes. If you have a clear goal then yes, by all means, work toward it. Especially if it lights you up. But during those times when you don’t have a clear goal, sometimes it is best just to take action with things that will bring you joy and then before you know it you will be inspired to do something or come up with a goal. Does that make sense?”

“Well, yes” you say. “Even while I asked you what we should do the last time, I was thinking about an idea I got for people when they are inside - a whole range of family games that they can do on rainy days that will keep them occupied and having fun together.” And your friend says, “Yes. That’s the spirit! Sometimes it is best just to keep moving in the direction of joy and you will be lead to the next inspiration. Sound good?” And you say, “Yes. Sounds good. Thanks!” Then your friend says, “Ok, now let’s get back to the dance game because I think I’m going to beat you this time!” You run off to the room to play with your friend, embracing your wonderful new learning about how to approach times when you don’t have clarity about what you want to do with the time in your life.

Your beloved Archangel Raphael
