Ahh.  Do you know what it feels like to be really Living your Passion?

I do.

I have stepped firmly onto the Lightworker path – I am Living my Passion – 100%.  It’s taken me a long time to really be up front and open about what I believe but I’m here now!  :-D

Yesterday afternoon I spent several hours at Lovely Norma’s home, co-facilitating an amazing workshop, “Connecting with Angels”.  I met the most incredible women, some for the first time, some were renewed friendships.  Every single one of them was just amazing!  They were happy to indulge, share and play in “Angel” space and I feel very privileged to have been a part of the process.

Norma is Divine.  Her meditation just transported me and the group to a whole other world.  Her harp playing is magical and I was reminded of the novel I am reading by Kate Forsyth with a character who weaves magic with his singing.  Norma’s harp playing is the same.

We talked about connecting with Angels/Spirit Guides/Animals/Faeries and Departed Loved Ones.  We explored oracle cards doing readings with one and two decks, then group readings for a couple of people.  Every woman in the group ‘graduated’ from novice to master in their card reading skills.  It was awesome!

And, to top off an amazing afternoon, we finished with Past Life readings.  Wow! 

I am continuously blown away by the messages the Universe gives to others, and to me.  I am humbled to be participating in such an incredible process.  I am delighted that Living my Passion is So Much Fun!

Raspberry Tart Note CardsI’ve come up with a Brilliant Idea! (Ooh, that’s the exact message on an oracle card in the Archangels Card Deck … must be Divine Guidance! LOL.)

Not only am I making cards to sell to my mum (who uses lots of cards, being a fabulous – if compulsive  at times – communicator) for her use and for her to ‘upsell’ in support of her preferred charity, the Addis Ababa Fistula Hospital in Ethiopia, I am also selling my cards to support Wildlife Victoria.

Mojo 100 Day 7 Kind PeopleSince attending the Animal Dreaming Course, I have been inspired by All Things Mother Earth.  I have created a NEW Workshop ~ Mother Earth Dreaming ~ which I will co-facilitate with Gorgeous Goddess, Norma Budinski, in October (we are facilitating the Connecting with Angels Workshop today!) with another event planned for November.

I intend to sell my cards and donate 50% of the proceeds to Wildlife Victoria.  Woo Hoo!Mojo 95 Cupcakes

So, I am on a Mission!  I can justify my Love of Stamping even more now that I know I am doing it for a good cause!

Card Reading Practise Session

Posted by Michelle under Angels

archangel oracle card deck image.jpgWe had a fabulous morning earlier this week, playing with our Oracle Card decks and learning more about doing readings.

Lovely Angel Friends, Anita, Deb, Carmen and Maria popped over for a couple of hours indulgence.  We used lots of different card decks and shared our interests in the Angel world plus our intentions for the practise session.

The Girls were AWESOME!  It’s heaps of fun being able to do card readings in a safe environment without any pressure!

I was INSPIRED by the Energy, the Passion, and the Success of the morning.  I also learned a lot ~ I was asked about how I did a reading which went into how I set up my space.  I hadn’t thought about sharing that before hand because I really don’t think about doing it, it just happens!  But, I appreciated the opportunity to cement those processes in my head and heart while sharing them with the Girls for their use.

Most excitingly was the feeling we all had by the end of the 2 hours.  We were Empowered!  ALL of us knew that we were competent Oracle Card readers.  All of us felt like Goddesses! 

Roll on next month’s session!

My life has changed.

I no longer use “Excuses”.

I am Living My Passion with Ease and Grace.

Woo Hoo!

Adopting a new approach to life is like a chicken hatching out of an egg – it’s new and damp and unsure about what’s going on.  That’s a bit how I feel.  Wayne Dyer has presented me with a compelling ‘argument’ as to why I would be happier and more peaceful if I adopted an Excuse-free life.

I have spent quite some time ‘Contemplating’ my behaviour and my options.  I have decided that I am ‘Willing’ to give up all my excuses in order to be totally empowered.  I feel the ‘Passion’ – goodness me, I feel the Passion- for my Lightworker Path – and I practice ‘Compassion’ with those around me.

I worked through the “Excuses Begone!” paradigm and I discovered that I really can live life without excuses.  And that thought makes me FEEL good – calm, peaceful, happy, genuine …   I am certain that there are still excuses I employ which I haven’t noticed yet, and I am sure that at times I will fall back into my old ways.

But, like the newly hatched chicken – all things are possible.  I will take a little time to ‘dry off’, ‘fluff’ up my feathers, and find my way to my new family.  That family is the ‘Excuse-Free’ family – those who are Living their Passion and committed to Being All That They Can Be.

Thanks, Wayne!

As I went to bed last night, I realised that I had spent the afternoon, actually most of the day, feeling really happy.  I was blessed with spending a few hours stamping with Kels and her friends from school – 4 giggling 11 year olds making cards and pizza boxes in the craft room with me.Stamping Girls!

The range of skills was quite broad and the ‘approach to life’ was really different in each of them.  But, they really enJOYed being creative together and Kels didn’t get asked to help too much. :-)

I realised that I was totally involved in the process and I really enJOYed it, too.  I do love running workshops and living my passion.  The girls ‘showed’ me that I can feel that way about Stamping, too.
