Realization

Today (Friday January 21, 2011) all I could do was type out the complete text of this angel card, and leave the editing for another day.  I enrolled in 5 teleseminars and I'm writing notes about them, while also constructing a new program (in my mind and on bits of paper).  This is how I create!  I listen to other thought leaders, hear how they are inspired, what brings them passion, and I allow new ideas to flow onto paper.  For example, I was listening to a woman speak about putting together a 2 or 3 day speaking event.  It's not something I'm interested in doing anytime soon, and I certainly am not interested in teaching other people how to promote themselves.  But what inspired me was the way she laid out her sales letter, and the processes she used to create her program. I was in full learning mode. 

I let my instincts guide me ~ think new now! cards

My angel card for today was:

Realization

From the book "Agnel Love", by Kimberly Marooney

The words that enlighten the soul are more precious than jewels.  ~ Hazrat Inayat Khan, Indian Sufi mystic (born 1882)

Realizations are often the result of experiences you have during a spiritual endeavor such as prayer, meditation, and the contemplation of eternal truths.  The angel Realization responds when your soul seeks truth.  To begin the search, select the highest truths you can find in scripture and in the teachings of spiritual masters; then endeavor to realize their meaning.

Teachings or quotes provide a doorway to truth.  You must do something to walk through that doorway so you can realize the truth for yourself.  Realizing the truth is much more than memorizing words or modeling a behavior.  A realization is a direct, personal experience of the truth within the words.

The angel Realization is reaching for your hand to pull you into the truer part of yourself, your soul.  Spiritual truths help you uncover the qualities of your soul so you can bring these qualities to the functional level of your consciousness and use them in life.  Realizations come from everyday experiences as well as from profound spiritual experiences.

Actions to Attract the Angel Realization:

• Copy a spiritual quote onto an index card and carry it with your throughout the day.  Seek to fully realize it's meaning.
•  When choosing quotes, find ones related to your challenges.  If you are struggling with loneliness, seek quotes that guide you to experiencing the truest part of yourself and source.

Only by going alone in silence, without baggage, can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness. All other travel is mere dust and hotels and baggage and chatter. ~John Muir (1838 - 1914)

• Share your quote with a friend (or do what I'm doing here)
• Keep a journal of your realizations.

• If you are determined, devote a weekend to serious prayer and meditation and keep at it until you feel unconditional love sweep through your heart.  Play music that is intense and serious, such as these three movie soundtracks:  Gladiator by Hans Zimmer and Lisa Gerrard, Bravehearet by James Horner, or Passion by Peter Gabriel.  Each of these albums is a meditation in itself and offers a variety of music that will support you through the many different feelings you encounter when you open your heart to a response from the spirit.  As you pray and meditate, ask the angel Realization to take you through the doorway to eternal truth. ~ Kimberly Marooney

Millions of humans are becoming aware of themselves as threads in a larger fabric of Life, and moving with deep dedication to contribute all that they are to it.  ~ Gary Zukav
