How to Manifest with the Angels

 by Lisa Dorey, The Angel Interpreter

I am so lucky.  I get to walk with the Archangels every day and with no disrespect, I consider them my friends.

Many people ask me how they too can manifest with the Angels.

Imagine if you were transported to a planet where your voice only worked when someone spoke directly to you.  If you wanted to start a conversation of any kind without this invitation to speak, not a single sound would come from your mouth.

What a lonely existence it would be.  You would see people struggling with things that were so easy for you to help with, yet you were powerless to assist because they couldn’t hear your offer of help.  You would have no alternative but to watch while they struggled on, trying to solve their problems on their own.

What a waste!

Imagine the joy when they finally ask if you could help.  When you do so straight away, they are amazed that the help was so easy, so quick and they wonder why they never thought of asking you before.

But the wonder of it all is that the solution that you bring them is not the one that they were expecting.  It comes in a very strange way and sometimes people actually miss it altogether because they are so fixed on the answer they had envisaged that they don’t notice that an even more wonderful solution is literally staring them in the face.

This is how it is with the Angels.

Know that just by reaching out to them, they will be so delighted that you have realized you don’t have to struggle on alone. No issue is too big for them to tackle.  You have finally spoken to them and that makes their hearts sing, because now they can speak back to you.

Don’t worry about how to call them, or what their names are, or even whether they will come or not.  Always speak to them with respect and ask that the help you require is for your highest good, or even the highest good of everyone.

You may know that I walk with the Archangels every day in a wonderful forest near to my home.  When I begin, I centre myself, place my feet firmly on the ground and breathe deeply to make the connection. Because I am outside, in nature it is an even more special experience, but if you can’t get out, of course you can do this inside, but perhaps keep an image of nature in your mind.

When I walk, the rhythm of my feet on the ground, the connection with Mother Nature and the sun on my face, or the wind in my hair all add to the experience.

I call the Archangels one at a time, Archangel Michael on my right, Archangel Gabriel on my left, Archangel Uriel in front of me and Archangel Raphael behind me.

When you do this, fully imagine that they are standing around you and feel into their presence.  You may see them, you may feel them or hear them, or you may feel absolutely nothing at all.  Don’t worry if this happens to you.  In all cases, KNOW they are with you and listening for your request for help.

I actually speak out loud to them, either welcoming them to my side or asking for guidance in special areas.  When asking for help manifesting specific things in my life, I outline the generics of what I want, but don’t get hung up on too many of the details, leaving it open for them to provide what is perfect for me, better than I could imagine!

Try to still your mind and just BE with them, feeling their presence and using your intuition to understand what they are telling you.  Don’t use your mind, it will only divert you.

Spending time with them regularly will bring you a deep sense of peace.

Watch for the solutions to your problems to arrive, but remember it won’t be what you have envisioned.  It will be something far more wonderful, even though the path to it may look confusing, or even painful to begin with.

Trust that they are with you, they are holding you and they will not let you fall.

I wish you many wonderful hours in their company!

With love and light

Purposeful life – how to find your unique purpose

by Tim Pond

. Do you want to experience life more fully?
. Do you want to find deeper meaning in your life?
. Do you want to make a difference and make the world a better place?
Each of us has a unique purpose on earth. You can look for it, find it, and
experience life more fully.

What is a unique purpose?

All people on Earth have their own unique purpose in life, their own truly
meaningful task for which they have a natural born talent. You can acquire
additional skills and opportunities during your life in order to live out
your purpose. Every person is unique.
According to C.G. Jung, a pioneer in psychology, adult life consists of the
continuous pursuit of maturity and becoming one’s own self. Jung calls this
pursuit individuation. A human being has an inner will to seek the meaning
of life and to move towards a greater and a more genuine awareness. This can
be consciously suppressed for years, or it can be ignored during a life
spent in the hustle and bustle trap, but it is always seeking an outlet.
A purpose is not a mere occupation or profession – it is much more. Neither
is a meaningful purpose a destination. Purpose is the answer to the question
“why?” Vision is the answer to the question “how?” Concrete goals and
objectives arise from a meaningful purpose. Once you have found out what
your purpose is, you can check whether your own goals and objectives are
consistent with it. And if needed, you can set new, exciting goals that
fulfill your purpose.
Purpose never comes from the outside. You need to find it yourself, by
gaining insight into it. No one, not even your parents for example, can
impose a meaningful purpose on you from the outside. It is something that
you feel as your own, a calling of sorts, something creates the sense that
you are giving something to the community.

How you can find your unique purpose?

One of the modern human being’s biggest problems is that in the middle of
the hustle and bustle of life, he loses orientation. He loses understanding
of where he is headed and why. He cannot slow down and listen to himself and
his real needs. You may need to take a 2-3 day retreat. A retreat means
withdrawing into quietude. Throughout history, Jesus, prophets and other
messengers have regularly sought solitude. It has helped them maintain their
orientation. A retreat helps you understand what is essential in life and
where you are heading.
Accordingly, seek a tranquil place for a few days, take pen and paper with
you. Nothing else. Do not take anything to read with you. Keep your mobile
phone off. Don’t watch TV or listen to music. It is a total no-info diet.
During your retreat, ponder over your life. What are you prioritizing now
and what do you want to prioritize in the future? Is this the road you want
to continue? Do you want to make changes? What changes? Is there another
road you can take? Furthermore, answer these three empowering questions:

1. Which things or tasks do I enjoy most?
2. What would I do if I could do anything without failing?
3. What would I do if I learned I had only six months to live?

So, please take your calendar and book your retreat. You will find clarity
and insightful answers to these three questions.

Don’t look for happiness; look for purpose
