"All you need to do to receive guidance is ask for it and then listen."

"When you are feeling depreciated, angry or drained, it is a sign that other people are not open to your energy."

"As new waves first come they may be felt as turbulence; they may shake things up in your life so you can make changes that will allow you to go even higher. It will become easier to go upward and be your Higher Self as each shift occurs. As you align with your Higher Self, you will no longer feel turbulence as these waves come, but will be able to use their power to lift you higher and take you to your goals rapidly."

"As you become more radiant you may become increasingly sensitive to food. You may already be feeling a desire to change your diet or gain a new level of physical fitness, for your body is directing you to those changes that will allow you to hold and radiate more light."

"As your contact with your soul deepens and your heart centers awaken, you may find your life changing. Old issues from the past or relationship patterns may surface for you to examine. Your expanding love and changing self-image may make you feel less content with current situations, relationships, or the way certain people treat you. As you surrender those attitudes, thoughts, beliefs, and energies that stand in the way of love, what you want in a relationship can change. This can be a time of leaving the past and what you have created, for your soul will fill you with new visions and dreams, new goals and aspirations."

"Although these new energies are increasing, they are still very subtle. For you who have finely tuned your awareness through channeling, meditation, and other self-awareness techniques, the energies are more noticeable."

"After you stop and pay attention, the next step is to assume an attitude of confidence, and trust the information you are receiving."

"As you build your light body, your intellectual mind will still be strong, but it will blend more with your intuitive mind. You will find yourself drawn to those things that are creative and challenge you to reach into deeper levels of your being. You will have a growing bond and kinship with all life-forms. You can already see this happening in humanity?s awakening consciousness of animal rights and the need to preserve wildlife and forests."

"Be aware of images you create about yourself when you speak to others."

"Choose Love. Surrender the desire to hurt."

"Having inner peace means committing to letting go of self-criticism and self-doubt."

"Humanity is evolving into a telepathic race."

"Honor your challenges, for those spaces that you label as dark are actually there to bring you more light, to strengthen you, to firm your resolve, and to bring out the best in you."

"If every person spent time only where he/she accomplished the greatest good for themself and the person they are with, the world would change in a day!"

"If any area of your life is not working, one of your beliefs in that area needs to be changed."

"If you want to attract a life partner as your soul mate, there are several illusions you will need to relinquish. One is that your soul mate is someone you will be with for the rest of your life. You can have a soul mate relationship that lasts a few weeks, months, or years. Time has nothing to do with the quality of your connection and its importance in your life."

"In any soul mate relationship, you will need to let go of the illusion that there is a perfect person waiting for you who will fulfill your every expectation and give your personality everything it desires once you are together. Do not expect your ideal soul mate to be someone who is always loving and easy to get along with, who agrees with everything you say or do, and who brings you a life of ease and comfort."

"In this wave of higher energy, you will find you need to nurture yourself and follow your inner prompting toward joyful activities from moment-to-moment. As you nurture yourself, your desire to reach out and make a contribution to others will increase. The new times that are coming will place more importance than in the past on community, family, and connections with loved ones. You may find yourself wanting to network and connect with others of like mind, for much will be accomplished by people working together. Humanity is becoming more inclusive and group-oriented."

"In everyone's mind there is a whisper of the next step. It may be simple, such as making a phone call or reading a book. It may be a very concrete, mundane step to take that may not even seem connected with your higher vision. Know that you are always being shown the next step; it is always something that comes to your mind as obvious, simple, and a joyful thing to do"

"Imagine you already have whatever you want and thank your higher self in advance for bringing it to you."

"Joy is an attitude; it is the presence of love - for self and others. It comes from a feeling of inner peace, the ability to give and receive, and appreciation of the self and others. It is a state of gratitude and compassion, a feeling of connection to your higher self."

"It is important to follow your inner messages."

"Light is not yet distributed evenly over the planet; it is coming most strongly to those places you call power spots. From those power spots the waves radiate outward in larger and larger circles of influence. Power spots exist all over the world, in every city and community. You can recognize them by your increased ability to go upward when you are on them. We see power spots making up an enormous gridwork of energy that is growing and able to influence more and more matter."

"It is important to nurture yourself."

"It is no longer a question of having what you want, but of making sure you want what you ask for ? for you will get it. What you ask for will appear more and more rapidly, for the laws of manifestation are taking on aspects of the higher planes. In the higher dimensions, you experience what you think about immediately."

"Most people have more than one soul mate. You may already be in several soul mate relationships with friends and loved ones. A soul mate can come in the form of a life partner, treasured friend, child, or lover. A soul mate can be someone with whom you share a spiritual path, a joint work in the world, or a commitment to be parents to certain souls. It can be someone whose growth you are sponsoring, such as a child."

"Loving the self involves faith and trust and belief in who you are, and a willingness to take action upon it."

"Many people may reject these shifts in the beginning, for to incorporate them may mean a complete change in the way they perceive and live their lives. Some may feel they are unable to handle the higher energy, and may try to deaden its effects through alcohol or drugs. Some may try to hang on to the old and find that doing so is an increasing struggle. Some may resist by criticizing the new ways or reacting with skepticism and doubt. Some people have to experience a high level of struggle and pain before they pay attention to and follow the inner messages they are receiving. At any point they can decide to follow the inner messages they receive and grow through joy."

"Not opening to and flowing with this higher vibration will have larger and larger consequences. If one area of your life is stuck, unhappy, or doesn?t work, it will affect every other area of your life. It will no longer work to ignore those areas of your life you do not want to deal with. If you don?t like your job, are having trouble with a relationship, or live in an unsupportive environment, that will dampen your aliveness in every other area."

"Never before have there been so many paths, so many possibilities, and the opportunity to choose what reality you want to experience. The most important aspect of these new energies is the opportunity they offer for joy, growth, and aliveness. They will help you awaken to the multidimensional being you are, tap into the greater plan of humanity?s evolution, and discover the part you came to play in these wonderful, exciting times of transformation."

"People who love themselves come across as very loving, generous and kind; they express their self-confidence through humility, forgiveness and inclusiveness."

"The challenge of the path of joy is to create freedom. True joy comes from operating with Inner-Directedness and recognizing who you are."

"Take time to daydream, fantasize, relax, and think about what you want to create. Practice thinking in new, unlimited ways."

"The degree to which you love yourself will determine your ability to love the other person, who will be reflecting back to you many of your own personality traits and qualities."

"The first skill to develop for sensing energy is the ability to pay attention. Learn how to observe others by being silent. You know what it is like to sit back and watch. Observe any area about which you want more information without judgment or having any opinions or preconceived ideas about it. As you think intently about something, you will begin to receive guidance, ideas, and new thoughts about the issue."

"There is no energy more powerful than love. Love creates miracles, heals all wounds, and purifies all lower energies. You cannot give love away, for the more you give, the more you will receive in return. When you choose love you bring about the highest good for yourself and others. Offering love is always the right choice. With love you can transform or be transparent to people's emotions and thoughts, neutralize negative energy, and harmonize with all life in the universe. All energy in the universe responds positively to love."

"There is a higher purpose to your life, a special contribution you came to make. Part of your reason for coming to earth is to evolve yourself as well as to serve humanity in some way. We will call the process of evolving yourself your life purpose, and the service you came to offer humanity your life's work. They are intertwined, because as you serve others you will naturally evolve yourself. As you evolve and radiate more light, you automatically serve others. Everything you do to evolve yourself and carry out your life's work is an act of aligning with the Higher Will and your Higher Self."

"The path of compassion does not obligate you to love people regardless of how they act or who they are. It is a path of seeing the truth of who people are, acknowledging all their parts, their humanness as well as divinity. It is the path of looking at people and asking, is there anything I can do to heal, assist, or bring them in touch with their higher vision? If there is not, then you are pulling down your own energy by spending time with them."

"The oneness of love expands the harmony between all the parts of the whole. It brings divergent energies into greater flow, synchronicity and harmony with one another. Think of all the souls in the soul plane, each one sounding a note, playing an individual melody. The note and the tune of each soul is in harmony with the whole, creating a beautiful symphony of sound. Imagine you can sense your soul's note. It is playing a beautiful melody that is in harmony with the melodies of all other souls. As your head center grows radiant with LOVE, your ability to live in harmony with everyone and all life increases."

"The only differences between people who think they are creative and people who think they are not are their beliefs about their creativity. Start telling yourself that you are a creative person."

"There is no right way to evolve or pursue your soul's path. It is up to you to choose whatever is best for you."

"This higher vibration that is now coming to your planet is going to be even more compatible with you who are on a path of spiritual growth than anything you have experienced in the past. As you make the changes your inner messages suggest, your careers are going to take off, your plans are going to succeed, and you will get whatever you want that is for your higher good."

"This new wave of energy will have a great impact on those areas of your life that have the least clarity and harmony. This new wave adds light to your life, but you can hold light only in those places where there is clarity and harmony. You will find that the areas that aren?t working become the most important to resolve and that doing so brings you the greatest growth."

"To dissolve obstacles to love, you will want to release criticism and replace it with praise, support, and assistance. An attitude of support assists people in fulfilling their potential. Think of a time you were praised--how good you felt about yourself and how motivated you felt to do even better."

"To become lighter, to create happier events in your life, it is important to use higher words and thoughts when you speak to yourself or others. Your thoughts create reality; they go out into the world and affect other people. As you begin thinking purer, kinder, and move loving thoughts, you will begin to change the magnetism of your body and resonate with the higher planes of the universe."

"To sense energy accurately, learn to get quiet, to step outside your thoughts, feelings, and emotions, and to become a blank screen so that you can receive impressions."

"To surrender to love, you will need to pay attention to any of your own emotions, moods, or thoughts that might lead you to act in less than loving ways. You may need to surrender pride, a sense of self-importance, the need to have your way to feel superior to, or to have power over others."

"True joy comes from operating with Inner-directedness and recognizing who you are."

"Truly powerful people have great humility. They do not try to impress, they do not try to be influential. They simply are. People are magnetically drawn to them. They are most often very silent and focused, aware of their core selves. ... They never persuade, nor do they use manipulation or aggressiveness to get their way. They listen. If there is anything they can offer to assist you, they offer it; if not, they are silent."

"Wave upon wave of higher consciousness is coming. Each one will create an enormous group opening, followed by a period of integration while the wave recedes. Each wave of higher vibration will be bigger than the one before. Its effects will be more noticeable because the number of people able to experience it will increase. Among other things, these waves will increase your desire to focus on spiritual growth and to discover your higher purpose. These waves will assist you in discovering the higher dimensions of yourself and achieving higher states of consciousness."
