Angel Journey
Begin by taking a deep breath, and as you release it,
relax down inside yourself, down to a spot inside you that is calm, quiet,
and peaceful. That inner core of you. Breathe again and sit even more
comfortably in your tranquil spot.
Now, imagine yourself as a baby. A tiny baby at the beginning of a life
journey. Totally dependent upon others for everything. So trusting, so
beautiful, so lovable. Gorgeously asleep, cradled in someone’s arms. Arms of
feathers. So soft and warm, and yet so, so strong. Holding you lovingly,
protectively. For an angel holds you. A shimmering, magnificent angel.
Looking down at your sleeping innocence, in total awe of this new life, of
you, who dares to come down and play on planet Earth in human form. You are
cradled firmly in his clasp, yet he does not control you. He breathes love,
peace and strength over you. For your journey ahead. Absorb these gifts into
you, as you nestle safely in his arms. Feel his love seep out from his
wings, providing a snug cocoon of energy for you to ride in. Smile
contentedly and enjoy this stage of your life.
Now imagine yourself a little bit older.
A toddler. You do not want to be held anymore. Your Angel respects this and
has stepped back a fraction to let you run. But he is only a fraction away.
His wings are still curved around you. A protective shield against any
unexpected knocks from the side. Or so he can reach forward to sweep any
obstacles out of your way. He is proud of your eagerness for life. He tries
hard to make life easy for you, but it is still your decision what you
experience. Your journey is wholly yours, but he is always available for
you. Ask him to be part of this journey ahead and thank him for his support
so far.
Now we are at school. Your Angel stands
directly behind you now. Always there, but you have become so caught up in
your game of Planet Earth. May be you have even forgotten he exists. Rethink
how those school years might have been if you had acknowledged this faithful
friend. Always truthful, supportive, helping you in everyway possible. He
has total faith in you. He applauds you in your joys and carries you in your
sorrows. Such a loyal and loving friend. Just because he can no longer hold
you as a babe in arms, does not mean he cares any less for you.Lets move to
the teenage years. Angel seems to feel rather distant. But it is only
because he is giving you space to grow you own wings. Can you feel them
beginning to sprout? Just between your shoulder blades. It feels a bit
awkward, a tad uncomfortable. You may even experience growing pains. But
angel is whispering, do not give up. Can you hear him, or did you dismiss it
as the wind on your face? Take heart and try again. Just as a butterfly
pumps blood into her wrings before she flies, so too you need to pump up
your wings. Accept them, explore them, start to flap them.
Take a mirror and. look into it. See your angel reflected back at you,
towering over you, demonstrating how to expand and contract those wings. He
can not live as you do on Planet Earth, but he is still very real. Still
supporting you, still supplying unconditional love. A faithful guardian,
totally respectful of all your wishes.
And so your life continues. You have
become older. You have let your wings fully develop. Iridescent,
incandescent, luminescent. Pretty cool things. But are you using them? You
don’t know how? Ask Angel to show you how to fly. And when you do, he will
show you a neat little trick. For your wings are made of Love.
So let’s begin the flying lesson. Step number one, wrap your wings around
yourself and give yourself a big hug. A big hug of love, peace, acceptance,
non judgement of self. Recall the feeling of being a baby, so precious
cherished and loved. Step number two, remaining in your own wing hug, let
angel enfold you in his wings. Feel the exquisite safety in this place of
overwhelming love. Let it engulf you. This taste of Home. Drown in it til
you pop out the other side just glowing in it. In love, in unconditional
love for you, in unconditional love for all. Wallow in this, grow strong
with it. Coat your wings. Line your backbone with it. Feel your wings begin
to tremble, then begin to pulse. In an eagerness to expand, to share, to be
open, to be free, to be flying.
Angel releases you. Come fly with me he
says. Open your wings and follow me. You unfurl your wings. So strong. So
keen to fly. They start to lift you off the ground. Drop any earth thoughts
of not knowing how to do this. Do you think about breathing and then do it?
No, it happens automatically. So too with flying. Thus step number three is
fly... Just let go and fly. Fly high. Fly free. See how easy it is. No earth
restrictions. Just you and the air and the world below. Flying free,
gracefully, gloriously.
Now for the cool trick. Look back at the underside of your wings. Wow, they
glow with thousands of little stars. Energy stars that are gifts of love,
peace and joy. Created as you stood in your Angel’s hug, while sharing your
love for each other. Gifts from home. And the reason you are flying? So you
can share these energy stars with the world. Give the intent as you fly and
release these stars down onto the world. An amazing trail of unconditional
love, sprinkling out over all mankind. Flap you wings and let the current
created, swirl this energy down and around the world. See this radiance
circle the earth in love and peace and feel it come back round to you. For
all energy is circular and not meant to be contained. Enjoy it as it washes
through you and then onwards again. Feel that love wash and rejoice. For not
only are you loved, you love. And you know the secret of your wings.
Gently land yourself back on earth. Thank your angel. Take a deep breath and
ground yourself back in this reality. You may not be able to see your angel
here, but he is always there. And you know he will be the first one to greet
you face to face when you decide to leave this game board of Planet Earth.
Espavo.
