November is a time of giving thanks for many of us.This month I am using the Archangel Power Tarot Cards, developed by Doreen Virtue, PhD and Radleigh Valentine. Both are renown for their connections with all angels and their deep intuitive abilities to connect to enlightened beings. The Archangels send you four messages about releasing the past and moving forward. At the very least you can be thankful that the Archangels care enough about you to give advice. Beyond that consider where you are and where you are headed. Be grateful for what you have already accomplished, however large or small, and also for opportunities that come your way to enhance your life.
The cards selected came from the top of the deck, after I shuffled and asked, “What important information do we need to know this month?” The cards are the Six of Gabriel; Peace: Archangel Azrael; the Five of Raphael; and the Ace of Gabriel. Each card will be quoted, I will find intuitive meaning from it, and Doreen and Radleigh will comment on it as well.
Six of Gabriel: Congratulations, you’ve done a wonderful job! Time to move on to the next project. Awards, scholarships, or promotions. The Archangels are always proud of your accomplishments, regardless of the importance to others. Take this acknowledgement to heart. Everything you achieve helps you move forward on your life’s path. Life is fluid. You are not meant to stay put and rest on your laurels. Growth comes when you take on projects that are challenging. It’s nice to be rewarded for your deeds, but it is the process you go through from beginning to end that is most important. Doreen and Radleigh tell us, “Congratulations! You’ve done a brilliant job! Your hard work has paid off, and those around you are highly impressed. Expect awards, promotions, or other forms of public recognition for your efforts. Enjoy this time of positive feedback- but don’t rest on your laurels too long. There are other great works ahead of you! This card can also indicate that it’s time to make choices that benefit you personally, rather than ones that are self-sacrificing. It’s okay to take care of you!”
PEACE- Archangel Azrael: Release the past. There is a more enriching future coming. Let go and let God. Archangel Azrael continues the theme of moving on in life, letting go of what no longer serves you. He advises you to continuously elevate yourself in whatever way you can. Each time you accomplish a goal, you strengthen who you are, and enable yourself to seek greater challenges. Each accomplishment helps you move up the stairs of life to greater and greater heights. Thus, you gain confidence and understanding in yourself. Trust in yourself grows stronger, which in turn enables you to develop an inner peace that is the guiding light of the angels and God. Doreen and Radleigh state, “The Peace card heralds a time of great transformation for you! It is a period of leaving behind the situations or experiences that no longer serve you. You’ve outgrown this phase of your life and are ready to move forward. The time has come for new adventures that will enrich your purpose and allow you to evolve, like a caterpillar transforming into a butterfly. Often when this card is draw, the time of change was expected. It may come with a sens of great relief or perhaps feelings of sadness. Archangel Azrael opens his arms to you with love and compassion and will help you during this period of transition. Take time to experience any emotions you have with grace and self-love. Archangel Azrael is a wonderful and extremely elegant angel who helps those who are experiencing a loss. When you call upon Azrael, it is as though two big loving arms from heaven have wrapped around you, providing comfort and support. Solicit Archangel Azrael’s aid when you need to let go of a situation or a part of your life that no longer serves you.”
Five of Raphael: Everything happens for a reason. Release regret, and embrace the opportunities for happiness. Search for the silver lining. Change is not always easy. When you have accomplished a goal, it is good to bask in the glory of it. The prizes, rewards, and accolades will only last a while, however, before more is expected. The good feelings are enjoyable and you naturally want them to continue, so it can be difficult to leave it all behind to start all over on something new. Remember though, everything happens for a reason. Trust that you are on the right path, even if it doesn’t seem right or comfortable. Your purpose in life is to grow to be stronger and wiser; to live a life of happiness and joy. Regret does not bring happiness, so let it go if you find you are holding it inside. Assume you are progressing to a higher state of being with each new accomplishment. Find the good in all you do and all you strive for. You will see life unfolding in ways never imagined. Doreen and Radleigh tell us, ” You may currently be focused on a loss, but when this card is drawn, there is something positive waiting for you. Things may not have turned out the way you expected, but now’s the time to trust that the Universe has something better in store for you. Regret simply does not serve you now. Embrace changes as the guiding hand of your angels sending you in a new direction with your long-term happiness in mind.”
Ace of Gabriel: A gift of passion, opportunity, and inspiration! The chance to do something amazing! A sense of wonder. When you embrace the new with gusto, amazing things can come your way. Listen to the inner voice that tells you the direction in which to turn. Trust that it is the correct guidance you need to continue to move along your path. The more you believe great things will happen, more great things will happen. Gabriel is the messenger who tells us to listen to our guidance- it is our inspiration! Acknowledge your passion and that passion will carry you to places you may only have dreamed. Doreen and Radleigh explain, “A wonderful gift is coming your way! It promises passion, opportunity, and inspiration. This is a time of action when you’re called to take up whatever activity motivates you most and make great changes in your life! Don’t hesitate to move forward. It isn’t necessary to know every single detail of what comes next in order to spring into action. You may be offered a new job or promotion, or you could start your own business. Accept new adventures and opportunities with open arms!”
Each Archangel urges you to continue the forward motion of your life. Accept your past life with gratitude. Embrace the new opportunities coming your way also with gratitude. You will live a fulfilling and rewarding life when you do.
