Ms. Debbie - In The Flow: Love

This morning my Angelic Tribe sent me this lovely heart. I feel so many reasons for this heart to show up. One of the reasons may be for Image, as the vet came over today. We all wanted to know for sure why she is hurting so much on her right hind leg. She hurt the tip of the hock 6 years ago on this leg. My vet x-rayed her hock, her stifle and her hoof. If you don’t know each of these spots on a horse, he didn’t x-ray her ankle or hip joint, but x-rayed the rest of the joints. 

Her stifle is fine. Her hock has a touch of arthritis. Her foot is where the problem is. The coffin bone inside the hoof has rotated. This is not a good thing, but it is something we can help her with. He trimmed her hoof for me, which was a good learning experience for me. We need to help her lose some more weight. She is Insulin Resistant. Hmmm, so am I. On a positive note, she was just out walking around a little better than she was yesterday. So, the trim was helpful. 

Another reason for the heart this morning, could have been for the cards that I did not write about yesterday. Self - Love. Compassion. Be Love. These are from the Love and Light Mantra Cards. This is by far one of my favorite decks.  

Self-Love card number 7. I am awakened to the inner essence of my being and therefore can clearly see everyone’s inner beauty. The guidebook asks us to do at least one self-love practice today. I danced and am writing. I played with Tilly and ate a healthy meal. One of these days, sitting in the sauna is on my practice list. I have not done that since Tilly arrived. She must get used to me doing that, because it is something that I love to do. I am reminded to feed my soul so that I can give more. This causes “a ripple effect” of love and understanding of others, “Let it start with you!”

Yesterday, a person I worked with many years ago reached out. I was just about to start to dance, but also wanted to be there for her. I let her know that I was about to start my self-care practice to dance, but I let her know that I thought a particular video of Mavis Karn might help her. I sent her that link. I felt a wee bit guilty, but knew I needed to take care of myself if I was going to be good for everyone else. I was delighted to hear back from her this morning after she watched one of the video’s I had suggested on Deep Listening. She thanked me for suggesting it. This card is a good reminder that we must take care of and love ourselves. Listen to your wisdom. That inner guidance knows so much more than we will ever know! Had I not, I may not have danced. Not moving, may have been a ripple effect we do not want to experience! Practice self care and self love is by far the best thing that we can all do for ourselves and others. 

Isn't it interesting that the photo on the Self-Love card is one with 4 people, not just one? 

Compassion. Card number 13. I carry the weight of love in my heart and compassionately feel all hearts. Together we rise. 

WOW, WOW, WOW. I am glad that I waited until today to write about these cards because this morning I watched and listened to a video that caused a shift in my heart. This video was not the first one to say this, but it was when I felt a shift in my heart. I am sure many have said it before and will continue to say it. The essence of what was said was that together, as one people we will rise, just as this card is saying. The differences between us and them are not as vast as we think. Sending all people Love and Light., not just to light workers is what is needed. Some of the people who are appearing to be against what is best for the country, may be afraid to be strong. They may be making the decisions they are making because they fear retaliation or that negative consequences will occur if they don’t fall into line. Many of the light workers are shining light to all for the highest and best outcome for all. 

Interestingly, the guidebook for this card says that we need to carefully navigate compassion and protect our energy. The action part of the message for this card says: “Practice compassion with a person or animal in need, a loving understanding that secures your energy in place without putting yourself in their pain.”  I did not expect this message. I understand it, because I have joined others in their pain, their fear, their low moods and their drama! 

How can we send love and compassion to the people who are feeling the hard and difficult emotions and yet protect our energy? 

Self-Love and Self-Care come to mind. Meditations. Prayers of protection. Eating healthy so we don’t tend to fall into that cesspool with them. I will be doing more of this. 

The last card, number 2. Be Love. I am connected to all that is: we are one energy, one heart, one love. Another card that speaks to the hearts. It is as these two are bonded deeply to each other. They are being love for each other. We are asked to, “Accept your journey as ever unfolding, enhancing your life through experiences that lead to growth.” To do this you must ‘first connect with your inner world and heart.’ Ok, I did not see that coming. I saw two people being love. Once again, we are reminded that love starts with us. Take care of you, find that love before you send it out to others. Once you have the love and compassion strong within yourself that is when you can ‘give and receive’ it. 

The messages from the cards, my Angelic Tribe through the Coffee Froth and the picture of two of our 3 dogs on the bed, all are about love. Do what you need to do to fill your cup during this upside down cycle we are experiencing. Love yourself first, because once you do the energy will rise. Love will radiate from your heart causing the energy around you to vibrate causing that ripple effect of love. 

Manifest a magical day or more.
