1. ESOTERIC QUOTE of the Week
==================================================
"The Angels were all singing out of tune,
And hoarse with having little else to do,
Excepting to wind up the sun and moon
Or curb a runaway young star or two."

-- Lord Byron


2. DO Your Angels Want to Divorce You?
==================================================
With the level of stress that people seem to be experiencing
today one has to wonder whether the divorce rate in angel-human
relationships isn't reaching an all time high! Of course, all
kidding aside, it's rare that our angels would ever "divorce" us.
After all, do you know how many unemployed angels are out there
just waiting for someone to help? And that is the point, of
course. People are not making proper use of all the angels out
there in the Universe to improve the quality of their lives. We
live in a world of action and achievement and believe in mottos
like, "If you want something done right you have to do it
yourself."

Angel-pucky! You don't have to do everything yourself, not when
there are angels hanging our practically begging to be of
service. We all have personal angels and then there are hosts of
"specialist" angels hanging out in the ethers just waiting, with
bated breath, for someone to ask for their help. And no, our
personal angels don't really "divorce" us just because we don't
listen, but possibly our angels feel some level of frustration
when they see us slaving away when we could be lounging around on
our tushies letting someone else do the heavy lifting!

If you find yourself running around like a human-without-a-head,
working way too hard, and trying to achieve everything in life
yourself, then stop it already! Stop and remember that you have
hosts of angelic beings waiting to be of service. Let your angels
arrange things for you, whisper guidance in your ear, and smooth
out some of those little bumps on the road of life. And if you
have forgotten how to connect with your angels after such a long
time of disconnection, try these simple techniques to let angel
energy into your life.

#1
If you need guidance tell your angel to send you a message now.
Then pick up any book or magazine, flip it open to a random page,
and point at something on the page without looking. Then look at
what your finger has landed on. Whatever you see is the message
from your angel, a sign or symbol of the answer you are looking
for. If it's not clear, then ask you angel to communicate with
you more clearly, in a way you can easily understand. Try the
book technique again or just keep your ears peeled during the day
for any word or phrase that rings bells for you. It may be a
snippet of an overheard conversation or a part of a conversation
you have with a friend. If you keep your mind and your ears open
you'll be pleasantly surprised how quickly the answer finds you.

#2
Ask an angel for direct help. Do you need help with a rocky
relationship with a coworker? Hire an angel to help you out.
Request an angel specializing in smoothing out bumpy
relationships and tell them exactly what you need. Be specific
and offer a time frame. Ask for a peaceful solution rather than a
vengeful one. Then let it go during the time frame you requested.
Let the angel do the work. You just sit back and relax and watch
it happen. Inaction is often a good bet during this time.
Remember, if you are mucking around right in the middle of a
situation you've asked an angel to repair, the angel can't do
much to help you. If you don't get the results you want during
the requested time frame, see what didn't happen. Then hire
another angel and alter your request to make it more specific or
more general. Often our focus is either too close to the problem
or too vague, so if we adjust our focus and our angelic requests
we get better results. Keep asking until you get the result you
want.

As always when working with other beings it is polite to thank
the angel when the work is done. In fact, thanking the angel in
advance, when you make your request, is a great way to pre-pave
the result. So ask away, give plenty of thanks, and enjoy the
upcoming results! Hire angels, prevent angelic unemployment, and
live a happy life, really!

1. ESOTERIC QUOTE of the Week
==================================================
"Dream as if you'll live forever, live as if you'll die today."

-- James Dean


2. THE Magical Secret to Living Life on Your Own Terms
==================================================
Ought, should, must, need �?ick! All those words define our lives
in terms of the things we have to do. There's not a whole lot of
choice in those words, right? And how much of our unhappiness
with our lives stems from a feeling of limitation or lack of
freedom? We have to get up at a certain time in the morning to
make it to work on time. We have to do as our boss says. We have
to pick up the kids after school by a certain time. We have to
maintain appearances. We have to pay bills.

There are so many things in our lives that we can't control it
can sometimes feel as though we are living in a box. So what can
we do magically to bring more freedom into our lives? How can we
live life on our own terms rather than on life's terms?

Simple. Make a practice of doing something everyday that life
doesn't make you do. Pick something, anything, that you don't
have to do and do it everyday. It can be anything. Learn three
words in a foreign language every day. Get up 20 minutes earlier
everyday and do absolutely nothing. Read two pages in a novel.
Learn yoga. Take up underwater basket-weaving. Whatever! The
point is to everyday exercise a level of freedom that is outside
the "oughts" and "shoulds" of life. It is an exercise in personal
choice and personal freedom.

Now why is this important? It's important because it exercises
your freedom muscle. This exercise teaches you, over time and day
by day, that you are not totally limited by the demands of life,
that you do have choice in your life. As time goes on, if you are
truly dedicated and consistent in this exercise, you will find
that your beliefs about life will change.

You might think at this point in time that you have to work hard
to succeed in life. Practice the freedom exercise for a while and
see what happens to that belief. Over time you may come to find
that you don't want to work hard to succeed in life, and that you
don't have to either. We live the lives that we believe we have
to live. If your beliefs change so will your life, and this
little exercise is designed to peck away at those beliefs, to
melt them away over time, until you can live your life on your
own terms. You didn't come to planet Earth to play life by
someone else's rules. You came to make up your own rules. So
start today by making your own game of life. Just do one thing
every day that life doesn't make you do and revel in the freedom
of it, even if it means making an extra effort at first. The
freedom that results will be well worth the initial price you
pay. Try it, you'll see!

1. ESOTERIC QUOTE of the Week
==================================================
"An angel can illumine the thought and mind of an individual by
strengthening the power of vision, and by bringing within his or
her reach some truth which the angel himself contemplates. "

-- Thomas Aquinas


2. BRIGHTEN Up Your Winter with Sun Yellow Energy
==================================================
As the days get shorter and the weather gets colder the urge to
hibernate can reach an all-time high. It's no wonder that some
people get depressed in the winter while others have difficulty
getting up in the morning or staying awake during the day.

The good news is that you don't have to feel like a groggy bear
who has missed his hibernation this winter. You can give yourself
a daily energy boost using a basic magical technique: the sun
yellow candle. It's simple. Just get a bright yellow candle that
is the color of the sun. Make sure it doesn't have any orange or
red overtones but is pure bright yellow. Then follow these steps:

1. Put the candle on a plate (for safety) and bring it into the
room where you will be spending the most time. You can move the
candle from room to room as necessary.

2. Sit or stand in the south facing north and put the candle in
front of you.

3. Light the candle with paper or wooden matches (no lighters!).

4. Wait for the flame to settle into a steady medium height.

5. Cup your hands around the candle and say this verse in a
strong voice to charge or program the candle.

"Child of wonder
Child of flame
Nourish my Spirit
And protect my aim."

Leave the candle burning for at least 30 minutes to get an energy
boost. You can leave the candle burning all day if you want a
source of continuous energy. Enjoy the sun yellow energy and the
energy boost it brings!

1. ESOTERIC QUOTE of the Week
==================================================
"If it were not for guests all houses would be graves."

-- Kahlil Gibran


2. MAKE Sure Your Company Doesn't Leave Company Behind
==================================================
Are you having company over to your house this holiday season? If
you are having people visit or stay in your house over the
holidays you may want to do some magical house cleaning before
your guests arrive and after they leave.

It's important to clean your house of any junky energies before
guests arrive since psychic residue left over from previous
guests or even daily events in your home can affect the energy of
your party. For instance, did you know that if you have a fight
with someone near a wall that the wall will retain the aggressive
and often unhappy energies of that fight? Later, if a sensitive
person happens to stand near the wall they may pick up on those
energies and feel anxious and unhappy. If one or more of your
guests is affected by this kind of energy you might have a
less-than-delightful party. The same is true of after your party.
You'll want to clean your house of any residual energies so that
you can have a calm, peaceful home after the holidays.

So how do you do a magical house cleaning? There are lots of
ways, of course, but here's a really simple method that works
great. You'll need a sun yellow candle (a bright yellow candle
with no overtones of red or orange) and paper or wooden matches.

1. To clean your house, start in one room of your house and work
your way through each room.

2. In each room, place the candle in front of you and sit in the
south facing north. Light the candle with a wooden or paper
match. Wait until the candle settles into a long steady flame.

3. Cup your hands around the flame and say in a voice of command:

Child of wonder,
Child of flame,
Nourish my Spirit,
And protect my aim!

4. Let the candle burn in each room for at least 30 minutes, and
then move the candle to the next room and repeat the process.

This simple technique works to clear most junky energies out of a
room. It's a general cleansing and will work great for light duty
cleansings. This will not work as a banishment or if a room is
heavily infested with negative energies, but for to prepare for a
party this should work great!

P.S. If you want to have great party energy, burn a bright orange
candle during your party!

1. ESOTERIC QUOTE of the Week
==================================================
"Say yes to whatever it is. Because if you say yes to it and then
you get in the middle of it, and you say, 'Uh oh, this isn't
really turning out the way I wanted it to,' then out of that is
born another desire. And as you say yes to that, then it turns
out. And you say, 'Well, it's still not quite right.' So you have
another desire... Until eventually you get it exactly right. You
cannot get it wrong. No creation is ever complete. Just do it."

-- Abraham Hicks (www.abraham-hicks.com)


2. PRACTICING the Art of Happiness
==================================================
'Tis the season to be jolly! And are you jolly, happy, and
joyful? Probably so (unless you're bogged down with too much
holiday shopping, food, and family!). And isn't it easier to be
happy during the holidays because we have so many fun
distractions. We get time off work, we get to see friends and
family we don't often see, and we have permission to celebrate.
In other words, during this merry season it's easy to practice
the art of happiness.

And that's great, but what about the rest of the year? How well
do you practice the art of happiness the rest of the year?

That might sounds like an odd question, but it's not. But it
might be easier to explain why with a simple analogy that comes
from dog trainers. Dog trainers tell us that we are always
"training" our dogs with our every action, command, attention, or
lack of attention. What this means is that you don't train your
dog only during official training sessions, you train your dog
every time you interact with him. Training is always occurring
whether you mean it to or not. For instance, if you always push
your dog away while you are working in your home office your dog
eventually learns that you are "unavailable" when you are in your
office. Having been "trained" in this way, he may not come tell
you he has to go outside when you're in your office, even if that
means that he has an accident somewhere in the house!

The same thing is true of your emotional and mental states. You
deliberately "practice" a peaceful state during meditation.
That's easy to see. But what about the rest of the day? What if
you spend the rest of your day feeling anxious, worried, angry,
frustrated, or upset? Then you are practicing those negative
states all day long. So while you may practice peace for 30
minutes a day during your meditation, you may be practicing
negative emotions for the majority of the rest of your day.

Most of us want to be happy and prosperous but we won't achieve
that state if we spend most of our time practicing how to be in a
negative state. You have to practice being happy before it
becomes a natural state for you. Sure, you might practice being
happy and peaceful during your morning meditation but how do you
practice that during the rest of your day?

Here are three things to get you started:

1. Make being happy the most important goal in your life. Period.


2. Blow off steam magically when you do feel negative to restore
happiness. Get directions here:
http://www.shamanschool.com/resources/articles/blowsteam.html

3. Remember that nothing lasts forever, not even a negative
state. Wait out negativity until happiness returns.
