When I asked which deck would provide the Angel Messages for today, the Guardian Angel Messages Tarot by Radleigh Valentine confirmed it was the best candidate as Spirit has been suggesting all week. When I pulled the card, I had to smile because it is a confirmation of messages that have been coming in for me very insistently over the last few months. The image immediately brought in an energy of peace and contemplation. The card is the Four of Air. As you may remember, the messages in this deck are from the Council of Guardian Angels which is a universal group of Guardian Angels protecting humankind. Their messages are relevant for all of us as opposed to the very specific messages our personal Guardian Angels have for us. Most of us have two or more Guardian Angels, each of whom come forward at different times of our lives depending on our need.
If you haven’t yet connected with your Guardian Angels, you can do it in many different ways – quiet meditation or with one of the many guided meditations available online (such as Radleigh Valentine – How to Get your Guardian Angels Names - free), journaling, or just sitting quietly and asking them to come forward. Guardian Angels also connect with us particularly through our emotions and spiritual gifts. When you feel their presence, you may experience an overwhelming sense of love that brings you to tears, you may “see” a pillar of light in your mind’s eye, or you may just “know” they are there. Trust the information that you receive from them. They love communicating with you and I am sure they will help you understand what parts of today’s Angel Messages are for you.
My Messages:
As I mentioned, the first look at this card brings about a sense of peace and my angels
immediately reiterated the message “REST!” As we spoke about last week, we have worked hard this year at the rapid growth we have gone through and as we are coming to the last month of the year Spirit is telling us it is time to wind down, to rest. As the card indicates, it is now time for “recuperation.” It is a time for closure; to wrap up all the work we have been doing and take a breath.
The Suit of Air refers to our thoughts and the ego. The card appears to be reiterating two common messages we have heard throughout the year: “Get out of your head and into your heart.” and “Positive thoughts.” As we rest and relax, we can breathe and putting the ego aside, we can focus on being in our heart, seeing the world from a heart centred space. The red peace sign draws our attention to the heart – that is where we will find peace. It is a time to really establish our spiritual practice including “meditation” where we will enhance our connection to Spirit.
Spirit wants to remind us that we are the co-creators of our reality. Our positive thoughts and feelings are the foundation for the world we create. As we come to the end of our year of transformation, we can reflection on how far we have come and with positive thoughts “contemplate” the future we want to create for ourselves. The number four tells us that this year we have established a firm foundation to move forward from. We can now start to plan, step by step, how we want to create that future. The four also tells us that all of the angles are supporting us so not to worry.
The youth in the image as well as the predominance of the colour yellow on his shirt speak of new beginnings – we are ready to step forward. The yellow also is the colour of the solar plexus chakra – our power centre. Spirit is telling us there is no need to rush or panic. We have done the work; we can rest and ponder our next steps that we have all the power to achieve. The other predominant colour on the shirt is red symbolic of the root chakra. It again reminds us of the foundation we have and that we are safe to move forward when we are ready. The root chakra also speaks to the importance of grounding and the youth lying on the ground reflects that need. As we rest, an important aspect is to remain grounded, to connect with Mother Earth, to be in balance with the Divine Masculine and Divine Feminine energies. The other colours on the t-shirt reflect the other chakras also in balance.
The youth is also resting on a blue blanket. The blanket is decorated with swords, the symbol for the traditional tarot suit of our thoughts. He is resting on the foundation of what his
thoughts have created for him so far. The swords are also the symbol of Archangel Michael as is the colour blue. The blanket is a subtle reassurance that Archangel Michael, who helps us release all that no longer serves us and keeps us safe, is supporting us as we rest. He is also there for support as we contemplate our next steps in fulfilling our purpose. The youth is lying on luscious green grass - again a symbol of beautiful growth. It is also a reminder that connecting with nature nourishes our soul. The white butterfly salutes our transformation and how far we have come.
So, as we heed the messages of the Guardian Angels to slow down, rest, and recuperate from this arduous year, Spirit wants you to know that you are fully supported. You deserve the time for you to connect more deeply with Spirit through meditation and a regular Spiritual practice. You may have new gifts that have opened this year that you want to take time to focus on. Just as last week’s messages informed us, so too are the Guardian Angels telling you this is a time for you. Rest and contemplate all the amazing next steps that you have the power to take. Be open to the guidance from Spirit as you plan next steps for the reality you want and can create for the new you.
Guidebook Messages:
“The answers you seek are within your heart, not out in the world. Attempting to maneuver your way through this situation is probably not the path to success. Meditation and quiet reflection will make everything clear to you. Take time to withdraw from your concerns and ask you guardian angels to present you with the perfect solution. If you find yourself immersed in a melodrama created by others, ask for protection from the angels and remove yourself from the situation.
You need a vacation! Take a break even if its only for a few days. Spend time in nature. Don’t rush back to daily life if you’ve been ill.
Angel Message: Take a moment to visualize sitting with us face-to-face, brainstorming a perfect solution for your challenges. Keep pen and paper nearby so that you can write it down. Be prepared for additional messages to come in throughout your day.
Additional meanings of this card: Taking it easy. Making time for your spirituality. Answered prayers. Getting away from it all. Needing more sleep.”
I hope this was helpful for you. I know this year of transformation has been hard work. Now
is your time to rest, connect with Spirit, and be in your power for planning next steps for your new reality. Remember we are all connected so that beautiful future you create will have a ripple effect for others. Take your time. You deserve it!
