Today’s Angel Message
Sep 7th
Today’s angel message once again comes from the Angels Gods & Goddesses
Angel of Union
“A partnership is blessed and destined for greatness.”
As I look at the card in the deck for this image the one thing that stands out the most for me is the white dove that creates a canopy over the two figures in the foreground of the image. The dove is what speaks to me the most today and that message is one which is a reminder about how much peace between two people matters in order to see thing accomplished. You and another person, be it friend, family, life partner or even a business partner, can have a great deal of care and respect for one another but if there is no peace to guide you in your union then nothing can really come of it. This can be difficult at times and just as much as we may love one another we can also have moments of great frustration that, if left unchecked, can become viscous and heavy emotions that can suck the real life out of any partnership.
In order to attain this greatness within whatever union in your life is most important, think today about how you create, contribute and maintain peace between you two. Is there a lack of balance of peace? Do you need to work to bring more peace into this relationship in order to feel truly united? The dove doesn’t just bring us peace but also acts as a guide, as a messenger and symbol of the Divine guidance and Divine peace that we all have access to. If we can only close our eyes, clear our heads, and truly listen from the heart rather than from the head we can find the messages of peace and guidance that will bring us to our ultimate greatness. Honor each other, honor the Divine, and bring love and peace into all you do together.
Today’s Affirmation
“I create peace for my partners in life, work and play.”
Tonight’s Angel Message
Sep 2nd
Today the angels decided they wanted to come out and play at night. It was a tough day getting on track and getting things in order for working on an angel message and it was clear that there was something else that they angels wanted me to focus on, but they have jumped up and decided they still want to share their message for today with you all. So tonight’s message is brought to you by the Angels, Gods, & Goddesses Oracle
Angel of Relaxation
“Let go of desired outcomes and you will get what you want”
The thing that strikes me first about this card is the coloring and how it looks like a woman’s face bathed in blue evening light with glistening touches of silvery moonlight dancing off her face and her hair. In the image her third eye is covered with a white ball of flame and her physical eyes are closed. This lends a lot of energy to this message about letting go.
So we’ve talked before about the “Let go let God/Goddess” and the need to detach from things from time to time in order to actually achieve what we’re after. We so often find ourselves so heavily invested in the outcome of something that we aren’t able to really advance and make anything happen because if the very thing we want can’t manifest in the way we want it to then we have no interest in seeing what will come to pass. We’ve all been there and that’s just part of the human condition; we want what we want and we want it now. This is where the angels and the Gods come into the picture. They can remind us that if we let go of expectations we can often see that what we really need is different from what we wanted and what we needed will come through.
The Angel of Relaxation is here to remind you that you need to relax and let go and make way for energy to move and for things to manifest. In the image the woman closes her eyes and by doing this, letting go of the physical world in front of her, her third eye is able to open and take flight. She is able to gain new information and new understanding by not being so attached to the physical and the desired and instead can really hear and see things from a deeper level. If there is something that you find yourself worried about, stressed about, or becoming overly invested in an outcome it may be time to sit back, close your eyes, and let yourself inner sight rule things for a bit.
Take the time in meditation this evening to consider something that has you so attached to the “real world” outcome that you have become clouded in how you feel about things on a deeper level. If you find that something has you drained, this could be another opportunity to step back and let another form of wisdom take over and help you. Close your eyes, set your intent to let your third eye chakra open, and ask what it is that you really need to know and what it is that you truly need to gain from this experience or situation. Don’t focus on what you want, but be open to discovering what it is that you truly need. You’ll likely be amazed how different yet similar the two may be. You may very well find that, when you’re done, you don’t feel that attachment to the outcome anymore and instead you have become more trusting and comfortable in knowing the Gods and the Universe will give you all you can handle and all that you need.
Tonight’s Affirmation
I release what I want and make way for what I need.

Today we’re back to working with my favorite, the “Angels, Gods and Goddesses” deck. With working the cards in the way that I do, sometimes cards pop out and come up in odd and interesting ways. Today’s card had decided to sort of stick itself up from the back while I wasn’t looking and begged to be pulled. When I pulled it and turned the card I felt a nice sense of confirmation since I have been getting started on a new spiritual path, in a sense, with a new course of magickal study. With the moon being just rounding it’s peak and being in Pisces, this was also a nice added touch.
Goddess of the Sacred Path
“Let go of logic and trust your intuition.”
Letting go of our logical mind and letting our intuition step ahead and take control can be a little scary for us, especially if this is something that we normally don’t do or if we’re still venturing out into the realm of working with our intuition. Like the saying “you can’t win if you don’t play” you also can’t know the power of your own intuition and psychic mind if you don’t use it. Letting this aspect of ourselves come out and play can be really important and can help us to build our confidence when it comes to working in a mystical or magickal way as well as with working with tarot, angel or oracle cards (should this be something you like to do). The problem is setting aside that logical mind.
One of the best ways to start working with learning to do this is to learn to feel the difference between logical mind and psychic mind. For most people this is first discovered by learning to meditate, especially learning to do guided meditation or meditations that are more of a shamanic journey. When we learning to work with these sorts of settings we have no choice but to let our magickal mind come forward and our logical mind take the back seat for the 15 or 20 minutes we’re meditating. You being to feel the difference between how the two feel on both an energetic level and even on a physical level. If you don’t have a meditation practice in place, now is the perfect time to start one! Start slow, 3 to 5 minutes a day, and then allow yourself to gradually build up to a longer session. Start with just working to clear your mind and quiet your inner voice. This is the begging of learning to set aside the logical mind. As you build up your practice, start looking for guided meditation CDs like the Celtic and Goddess meditations from Mara Freeman or find books with guided meditations that you can read through or have a friend read to you and guide you through. Michelle Skye has several books on Goddess work that include some of the best guided journeys for meeting and working with different Goddesses that I’ve ever read.
Another way to start letting your intuition come through more is to just follow your heart and not feel you have to judge and guide all that you do during the day. If you’re driving home from work and you just suddenly feel the urge to take a different route home, do it. Don’t feel you have to do things the way you usually do just because it’s routine. On more than one occasion I’ve had this happen over the years and come to find that my usual way to and from a place was backed up due to an accident or construction that I didn’t know about and by taking this other way I saved myself a lot of time and grief. You might also have the urge to suddenly call a friend you haven’t talked to in ages and when you do you come to find they are in real need of someone right now and you’re there to help them just in the nick of time. Much like any muscle the more we use it the more it works for us; the more you let your intuition take a role in your life, the stronger it will become.
Setting aside a little time today to meditate and honor your intuition will be helpful in connecting you deeper with your own divine path and allowing you to connect more with your spirit to what you truly desire. Again, the simple act of meditation and then allowing your intuition to do it’s thing without your logical intervention is the best way to do this since this is the way to truly honor your intuitive abilities.
Today’s Affirmation
“I am using my intuition with confidence every day.”
Today’s Angel Message
Aug 23rd
Today I find myself extremely distracted. I’ve go so much on my mind and so many things going on in my personal life right now that I can’t seem to find the time to focus and stay on track today! It’s a feeling that I really hate, to be honest. So today I’m working hard at trying to get the tarotscopes done in a somewhat timely manner (which so far means late but not too late) and get all the other things finished that I need to before I have to leave the house tonight for another obligation. If you ever have any curiosity in what it happening with me in my personal life, something I have long said I just felt I needed to get separate from this blog (and I plan to keep doing that) you can always check out my personal blog (which is going to be updated this week as I’ve fallen behind there too…surprise!) you can visit that at “A Witch By The Sea“. So while I try and get myself together, let’s see what the angel’s have to offer as advice for today using the “Angels, Gods and Goddesses” deck.
Angel of Prayer
“Ask the Universe and the Angels for help and guidance.”
There’s a saying that you hear in a lot of Christian circles that I think we, as Pagans and other earth-based believers, could benefit from affirming every now and then. “Let go and let God.” Make it “Let go and let Goddess” if you wish, but the sentiment is still the same. We know that we have a very powerful, direct connection to the Divine and the Universe, but we often forget to let it work for us and instead feel that we need to do all the work and just ask for it’s assistance. The Divine, however you wish to see it, is there to work with you. The God and Goddess will work on your behalf in a way that the angels and the Universe necessarily can’t (you need to give the angels expressed permission where as the God and Goddess can always intervene). But we sometimes forget that, while we might want to see the Goddess come in and lend us a hand, she might not feel she needs to and thus doesn’t, leaving us feeling like we aren’t getting the help we want from the Divine. This can also sometimes put us in the position of working extra hard without the divine help that we might need.
So today, “Let go and let God/dess”. What is stressing you? What has you on edge? What has you feeling like you’re getting buried under a pile that you’ll never get out from under? Ask for the God, Goddess and/or angels to come in and lend a hand today. Ask for them to help take away stress and help with getting things done in whatever manner they can help. If there is something very specific, like a difficult decision that you need to make and you can’t pick a course of action, ask for help on that specific thing and meditate while listening for an answer or sign for your next step. The Divine, the Universe and the Angels are all there waiting to help and willing to help, but you need to let them know what you need and you need to give them room to work. Once you ask, make the space for them to do what they need to do.
Today’s Affirmation
“I am making room for Divine aid in my life.”

Today I’m working with Doreen Virtue’s Angel Therapy deck once again. I was feeling under the weather yesterday during most of the day until early evening and wasn’t able to really work on an angel message with any coherence. Today felt like a great day to work with the therapy deck as a result.
Indigo
“The person you’re inquiring about is an “Indigo”, meaning a highly sensitive, natural-born leader.”
In the New Age community the discussion of Indigo’s is a big topic, especially when talking about children. This is when we most commonly hear the term, things like “She’s so in turn and perceptive for an 8 year old, she must be an Indigo” or “He has a hard time making friends with the other boys at school because of his sensitive Indigo personality.” The concept came about in the 1960s and 1970s when psychic and color therapist Nancy Ann Tappe began to notice a pattern in the auras and life energy colors of children being born around this time. She started to notice that the majority of children, especially those who were newborns and toddlers, had an evenly mixed blue and violet color surrounding them. In 1982 she published a book that outlined the concepts of Indigo children called “Understanding Your Life Through Color” which lead to another book specifically on Indigo’s to come out in 1988 by husband and wife New Age presenters Lee Carroll and Jan Tober called “The Indigo Children: The New Kids Have Arrived”. Since then Tappe has identified four different types of Indigo personalities, Humanist, Artist, Conceptualists, and Catalysts, along with a total of 17 traits to identify an Indigo.
A lot of criticism has come about over the subject, especially in the later 80s and early 90s when just about every child was being diagnosed with ADD or ADHD. With some of the traits for an Indigo being similar to behaviors common in children with these disorders it was often suggested that parents either didn’t properly treat their children and their possible medical conditions because they felt these were just the way their children expressed their Indigo personalities and yet other parents who were having their children treated by doctors and with medication tried to stress the Indigo personality issue with their children to, as some have suggested, make their children but more importantly themselves, feel better about the diagnosed medical condition. Many people have put the issue of Indigo’s to the test saying that the traits described are far too general and could really describe anyone, especially if they are in the least bit spiritual or creative. But on the flip side it is interesting to see that with the time frame that the Indigo personality began to be identified and expressed with purpose and the children born at that time, who are now adults and taking leadership roles in the world, all leading us into 2012 when we shift into the Age of Aquarius again, it leaves some very interesting things to consider and look at.
Whether or not you believe in the concept of Indigo’s isn’t so much the important message here as it is the general concept behind them. The angels message here is brought out through the message of the Indigo and that is “stand up, have confidence, take charge”. We can find that we let our imaginations run wild and we talk ourselves out of some of the great things that we might wish to do because we worry that the world is going to think we’ve lost our minds if we share our ideas and dreams. We need to spend less time worrying about what the world around us is thinking and more time focused on doing what we want to do, accomplishing what we wish to accomplish in this lifetime. Today is a great day to sit and connect with your angels, guides and Divine helpers and ask for guidance and strength in doing just that. Is there a specific dream or goal that you have that you wish to work on but you have some worry about bringing that out to the world? Ask for their help in making it happen and in giving you the strength to do what you wish to do. Don’t let the projections and fears of others hold you back or keep you from fulfilling your goals and being the leader you were born to be.
Today’s Affirmation
“I am working to move past the perceptions of others to be the leader I was meant to be.”

Today’s message comes again from the “Angels, Gods and Goddess” deck which I love so much. 
Goddess of the Earth
“An idea connected to imagination, creativity and nature is coming your way.”
Some of the best ideas that we might ever have can come from odd or out of the ordinary encounters with nature. A walk in the woods, sitting and looking at the clouds, even a day at the beach and stir our hearts and minds, and especially our spirits, in a way that nothing else can. The problem with this, however, comes with the fact that we don’t always listen to nature. Nature, especially in our highly electronic age, is something that is just sort of there. It lives and breaths and goes through its cycles virtually unnoticed by most people, even some of us good meaning Pagan and earth-minded folks can fall prey to the busy daily lives we life and forget to always stop and acknowledge the beauty of the changing seasons and the specific changes happening in our neighborhoods.
Today provides an opportunity to connect to nature to feed the creative spirit. Go for a walk this evening in an area that provides opportunities to connect to nature whether it’s by the beach or a lake or out in the woods (if it’s safe, of course). But here is the challenge. Don’t bring your iPod. Don’t distract yourself from nature during your walk. Focus on the trees, the ground, the sky above. Feel the heartbeat of nature around you and connect to that as you walk through its space. Open yourself up to hearing the messages and feeling the energy that the earth has to offer and let this bring forward whatever messages, ideas or information that the spirits of the earth have to give. Bring an offering of fruit, wine or juice, just a small amount, and leave it somewhere for the Goddess of the Earth, Gaia, Mother Nature. Thank her for being the ultimate sustenance in your life, both physical and spiritual.
Today’s Affirmation
“I connect to the Earth and hear her messages that feed my soul.”

For today’s message I felt drawn to bring out my favorite angel deck, Doreen Virtue’s “Angel Therapy” deck. As I was tuning into my Guides and my angels I couldn’t get Isaac Bonewits and his declining condition off of my mind, so for today the angels have asked to dedicate today’s message to Isaac, for Phaedra, his wonderful wife, and all his friends, family, and members of the occult and Pagan community who he has touched over the years. May we all take something away from today’s message.
Vacuum Away Fear
“Call upon Archangels Michael and Raphael to life fear-based energy from you, your surrounds, this situation, and everyone involved.”
Dealing with the loss of a loved one or someone who has touched our lives in some way can be a really difficult situation to deal with, no matter how much time we have had to prepare for it. The angels always sense that fear and they surround us with love and light and extra energy during these especially difficult times. We can often sense a lull in our sadness and fear when this happens and we often don’t know why it is that we all of a sudden feel calm, at peace and as though everything is okay once more. This is the work of the angels removing the fears that keep us from enjoying the last moments with our loved one and honoring them fully. It’s hard to truly honor someone, their spirit and their life, when we are engrossed in sadness and fear, a sadness and fear that usually is all about us and moving forward without this person in our daily, physical lives as opposed to fear for them and their transition.
The angels are here today to remind us that in any situation, whether the passing of loved one, the fear of dealing with a difficult situation or life transition of any kind, they are here to help remove the fear so that we can be in the moment to learn, live and enjoy the experience, even a difficult one. If there is something that you are having a hard time facing or dealing with because of fear, call on the angels, especially Michael and Raphael, the protector and the healer, to guide you and guard you through the fog that you may find yourself in. As for your chakras to be aligned and cleared, releasing fear and trepidation, and move forward with you challenges, ready to experience all you can from it.
Today’s Affirmation
“With the aid of the angels all my fear and sadness are released and I move forward in strength.”

For today’s angel message I’m using a new angel deck that I haven’t actually done any reading with just yet. I haven’t been able to decide if I actually like the deck or not and I thought that if I started using it I may start connecting with it. The deck is “Ask An Angel“, another deck by Toni Carmine Salerno. This deck is a bit different from some of Salerno’s other decks, at least to me. This one comes with a guidebook that actually ends up being necessary where with most other oracle and angel decks you can easily set aside the book and work from a clairvoyant and clairaudient perspective. Here each card is based on a specific angel and a message from that angel so if you don’t know the many different angels outside of the primary archangels you’ll find that you have to refer back to book to get an understanding of that angel’s mythology in order to fully connect to the card image and the message. Ok, before this turns into a full on review, let’s see what the “Ask An Angel” deck has to share with us on this Friday.
Archangel Chamuel
Divine Justice
First let’s meet Archangel Chamuel. Chamuel’s name has two accepted meanings, that of comfort and compassion and also “He who sees God.” Much like the double edged sword that Chamuel is sometimes seen holding, he is both an angel of mercy and justice. Chamuel can give great strength in times of adversity and can offer love to those who are in need of the support this energy brings. Chamuel can lend energy and aid with relationship, especially relationships of love. When justice is needed Chamuel can come to our aid and help us to find the answers we may need during these difficult times. His main job is infusing love, strength and courage into all we do when he is called on.
Today Archangel Chamuel comes through with the message of divine justice to remind us about balance. The sword that he carries is a great symbol of balance. For a sword to be useful it needs to be well balanced so that the hand that holds it and wields it isn’t thrown off course by an unstable weight. Our lives are constantly in flux looking to fall into balance with the lives of those around us, the life of the world around us and the life of the Divine spirit around and within us. One of the keys to this balance is the love that Chamuel gives us.
Call on Chamuel and your angels and allies to help you find balance within and without today. Ask for help in finding love in all situations and seeing even the most unbalanced and difficult of situations you may face with an understanding of where it helps to lend energy to bring balance to a part of your life and know that anything that you can’t handle, any sword you can’t wield on your own, Archangel Chamuel will help you with if you simply ask.
Today’s Affirmation
“I am finding love in all things and creating balance within and without.”
Today’s Angel Message
Aug 4th
So far this week the angel’s have helped to remind us that we have their support to do pretty much anything that we’d like, but we also need to know that in order to gain their full assistance we need to be open to working with them. We also need to be gentle with ourselves if we’re going to get anywhere. And isn’t that always the biggest challenge? When we learn to ask for help, accept it with grace, and allow ourselves to use the help with gratitude, anything is possible.
Goddess of Nature
“You reap what you sow; Your dream is coming to fruition.”
The Goddess as the divine spirit of nature is always around us, always supporting and inspiring us. In our day and age of technology and the hustle and bustle of our busy lives we often forget to look at the lessons that nature is trying to teach us. The hands of the Goddess are so busy, moving at such a breakneck speed to keep live moving and growing that we can’t see them in motion but if we slow down we can feel them. The Goddess of Nature, much like the Goddess of Compassion, reminds us that we need to be working to attract things to us in order to make what we want to happen manifest. Where the Goddess of Compassion reminded us that we need to be aware of how we work with and attract personal energy to us, the Goddess of Nature reminds us that in order to manifest we have to plant. Nothing comes from nothing but if we plant the seeds, add energy to them and work them though careful cultivation, whatever we wish can grow and manifest in the garden of our lives.
Today is a great day to start that planting and sowing. Now that you’re being kinder to yourself you’ll have the power and energy to truly grow your desires. What is it that you want, what would fill your heart with love and set it afire? Name and define that thing. Working in abstracts doesn’t always lead us to our real goal. If we know exactly what it is that we want then we have a better chance of knowing exactly what to do to get it. Don’t be afraid to define your desires and ask for what you want.
Now comes the tricky part. You reap what you sow. This is where we come back to the point of the law of attraction. If you want one thing but you sow thoughts of a different kind you will reap something else entirely. Ask for the angels and the Goddess of Nature to help you to sow the right things so that you reap what you truly desire. And remember the message of the Goddess of Compassion from yesterday; you need to be kind to yourself and not let that self-criticizing nature overpower you. Meanwhile ask for the Angel of Support to guide you and carry you on its wings to get to where you’re heading.
Today’s Affirmation
“I define my heart’s true desire, plant the seeds, and feed them with love and passion.”
Today’s Angel Message
Aug 3rd
As we move past the initial start of our week and we begin to get into the groove of things, let’s remember to keep the message from yesterday fresh in our minds. The angels are there to support us and to guide us when needed but we need to be willing to work with them, not expect them to just do what is best for us. While the angels, as hands and workers of the Divine Spirit, may have a bit of an idea of what we may need and how we might best be guided, they aren’t going to do the work for us. We need to be willing to hear their messages, take them to heart, and then work with them as a co-creator in our abundance, health and happiness. Today we once again turn to the “Angels, Gods and Goddesses” deck for our message from the angels.
Goddess of Compassion
“Self-criticism is diminishing your sense of self-worth.”
We are always our own worst critics; this is nothing new and something that we all hear time and time again, often from those around us that love us and know that we are better than we may give ourselves credit for. But what we sometimes forget is that there is a pattern, a very negative and harmful one, that can develop over time when we allow our inner critic to take center stage far too often. When we tell ourselves something over and over again, we help to create that thought as part of our reality. Whether it’s telling ourselves that we aren’t smart enough to get the job promotion, that we’re not good looking enough to get the partner we desire, or that we just aren’t going to ever have the things we want because we just don’t deserve them. It doesn’t matter if it’s something superficial or something more serious because whatever it is, if we keep telling ourselves over and over that this is just how it is, then this is how it becomes. Before you know it you’ll only see a worthless, ugly, undeserving and sad face looking back at you in the mirror every morning regardless of how smart, beautiful and special everyone else around you may think you are. And then it’s just a matter of time before you start to convince those people that only the negative image of you is real and see that is exactly how everyone around you sees you are well.
The act of attracting energy and circumstance to us is a very real thing. Some people laugh off things like “The Secret” and the Abraham Hicks material as being nothing more than feel good new age fluff, and while it’s true that sometimes it may be packaged that way to make it easier to understand for some and more accessible for others, the core message isn’t fluffy at all and really does show itself to us each day. The Goddess of Compassion is here today to remind you of all of this and to tell you that you need to start hearing how you talk to yourself and pay attention to what you’re teaching yourself to believe. Your inner voice is powerful! More powerful than you may know, in fact. All the time you may be spending on self-criticizing and all the energy that you’re spending on these negative thoughts and feelings could be spent on building yourself up instead. If you can attract the negative you can surely attract the opposite!
Today spend time being extra aware of your self-critic and when you catch him or her talking down to you or saying something negative, stop it in its tracks, delete and release the negative thought and instead replace it with its opposite, positive thought or affirmation. Light a purple candle today in your meditation space, at your altar or in your home to honor your self-worth, calling on the Goddess of Compassion to ask for understanding, forgiveness and help in changing your attitude toward yourself and drawing in a more compassionate vision for yourself. And remember to ask the angels for support as well.
Today’s Affirmation
“I am releasing all negative self-talk and seeking inner compassion for myself.”
Today’s Angel Message
Aug 2nd
It’s been a little bit since we’ve had a message from the angel realm, but the daily messages are coming back and will be part of the blog seven days a week now! I’m also going to be working on some articles about working with the angels and welcoming the angels into your life, especially for those of you that may be involved in the Craft and have the mindset that the angels don’t play a role in Wicca or Witchcraft. I was of that mind myself and I know that isn’t the case, so I’m hoping to be able to help open some new doors for others. So today we’re looking at not only a message for today, Monday August 2nd, but also a message that will set the tone for the week.
Angel of Support
“The Universe has heard your silent call for help.”
The angels are here to lend their help and support to us when we’re looking for a helping hand, but the problem is that we need to ask. The angels will never come into our lives, intervening and making changes, unless we ask and they know we are willing to work with them. Are you calling out for help or are thinking about it? Now is the time to formally ask the angels to come into your life and help with whatever situations you are feeling need a little divine intervention. The angels have a healing power that can help boost healing work that you may already be doing for yourself or for others. Ask the angels to guide you in this week and you’ll find that things progress in a faster manner. If you’re at a point where you need a bit of rebirth and change in a relationship, ask for their loving guidance on how to spark new life into things. And if you’re at a point where you need to make a painful decision or transition, ask the angels to wrap you in light and hold you as you make the first steps towards change. The power of the angels is endless and they are waiting to help you.
Today’s Affirmation
“I work with the angel’s powerful energy to bring peace, love and happiness into my life.”
