Ms. Debbie - In The Flow: Creating Our Future

Yesterday I was asked by -K some questions about creating our future. This person’s statements and vision led to the following questions. 



How do we create the future we want to live in? 


Do we create the life we want to live through what we talk and dream about? 



I did something I have not done very often. I asked the pendulum questions, so that I could figure out what my Angelic Tribe and Guides wanted to tell me through the Akashic Records.

My vibrational energy was fast. I was vibrating way too fast to try to write plus it took a while to figure everything out. My life needed me. Tilly needed me, and I needed to ground myself again. I was so light, I thought I was going to fly. Maybe that is why the birds were calling to me so much yesterday? We took the dogs to the vet and on the way there and back we saw 4 or 5 Red Tail Hawks and as many Eagles. It was a beautiful day to see the birds out and about. 



Interestingly, at the end of the drive we saw a tall Red Squirrel standing on the side of the road on his hind legs looking around. When I feel drawn to the Squirrel it usually  means to get prepared. My dear friend always thought of them as a moment of distraction. She had lots of those squirrel moments. When I saw the squirrel yesterday, I thought of her, but I also felt like it was a message reminding me to be grounded.  This one definitely wanted us to notice it and was standing on the ground, not flying from branch to branch. Now that I think about it, 2 of the birds were on the ground too!






It sounds like I got the messages correct for my personal needs, now that I am looking back on what happened. ‘Soar with the birds, but be sure to ground yourself after you do so.’



The questions that came up during our conversation were similar, but different. 



How do we create the future we want to live in? 


Do we create the life we want to live through what we talk and dream about? 



I asked the pendulum Yes/No questions to figure out which of the questions I should focus on while shuffling the cards. I was given a 'yes' for the first question and a 'no' for the second question. Both were very distinct responses. 



I had picked out 3 decks to use. I wasn’t sure which one to use for this question. So I asked the pendulum. What I learned was it did not matter which one I used. It was my choice, they would answer the question through any method or deck I chose. This was so freeing to me, since I see pictures in the sky, in the Magic Glass, in Nature, in coincidences in the Coffee Froth, in numbers I see on the clock, license plates or even on the whatchamacallit that tells me how many miles my car has been driven. My guides just said, “Even in the bubbles you have in the bath water! We will send you messages when you ask for them and if  you look for them or not!” Ha, that tells me that they enjoy communicating with us and will send us messages in all sorts of ways.



I am hearing the words “just imagine”. I just tried to write several different sentences with this phrase in it…Not one of them felt as if they were what my team was trying to help me write. So I left the 2 words as their own message.  I also heard "unlimited" and had the same thing happen when I tried to write a sentence for this word. ‘Possibilities’ may or may not have been meant to be paired with the word unlimited. Listen to the meaning that you are receiving, when you let these words stand alone in your mind, while reading them. 



Just imagine. Unlimited. Possibilities. 



This may be a very important reminder to be open when we are communicating with our Tribe. I made sure to say a protection prayer yesterday, as well as today, to make sure that my messages were coming only from the light and through the Akashic Records. I also did a Challenge, which is very new to me. Apparently if you ask 3 times if the connection is from the light and for the highest and best good, they have to tell you the truth. I did it, mostly because I could sense that it was important to do yesterday. I hadn’t ever felt that way before. Take it with a 'grain of salt', it may or may not be important. As always, listen to your wisdom and do what you feel is best for you in each and every situation.

 


Just imagine. Unlimited. Possibilities. May also be the answer to the questions we were asking yesterday. (Maybe they wanted me to get to a new question/answer today?)



While shuffling yesterday, I asked the question for -K and I for the first 2 decks. This is important mostly because I heard that I must include the collective for the last shuffle. Had I not heard that from my guides, I may not have used the Golden Future deck. 



Today, I am not in that high vibrational energy like I was yesterday. I am in the creative energy where my writing usually comes from. I hear my team, but I can also ponder using my own thoughts. I am not grounded, but I am not flying as high into the sky as the Eagle and the Hawk can. I am in the zone. In the flow. In a place of harmony with my Angelic Tribe.

 


Let’s look at the cards that we were given and see what the guide book says. Let’s see if we can see a common theme that will guide us to create the future we want to live in. 

The only card that my Spirit Team sent to me through the Angels and Ancestors Oracle Deck was Moon. Take note of intuitive messages. WOW. I have goosebumps remembering how I felt when I first saw this card. -K had been given some very powerful messages about ‘creating the future we want to see through our thoughts and dreams’. I felt this was a confirmation card for the visions. 



The guidebook states, “Not everything is as it seems. The moon has a dark side (just dark not negative). It can show you what you have been kept in the dark about.” Also, “the moon is associated with the divine feminine and the energy of receiving. See through illusions and blockages.” 



Wow, what does that mean to you? Are you listening to your intuition? Are you receiving messages from the universe and thanking them for their assistance? Are you in community with others, like minded folks who also listen from their heart to what their Angelic Tribe, Spirit Guides and the Universe is giving them? This is important, because in community we lift each other up. (Like I felt yesterday when my vibrational energy was moving at such a fast rate?)



-K responded with this. “Powerful needs right now, seeing through illusions and blockages.” I agree, we need to see through the ‘illusions and blockages’ to get to the other side of what we are currently experiencing. 



Today, while I am in a creative place, this question just expanded: How do we create a future we want to live in vs a future we do not want to live in? 



I don’t think I need to pick a deck and shuffle again. I think the answer will appear in what was given yesterday. 



While making my peppermint tea and talking to my husband about his current project, my team was working on swirling thoughts that I have had since yesterday. This is what appeared when I sat back down: 



To create a future we want to live in, we need to rise up out of the ‘weeds’ of the 3D drama that keeps coming at us, day after day, after day. 



The second deck popped out these 3 cards. The first 2 fell out together. I asked my team, through the pendulum, if they wanted me to keep both cards. 'Yes'. I asked if I should keep shuffling for another card. 'YES'. 


The Wisdom of the Oracle Deck by Colette Baron-Reid is a many layered deck. Number 32, Here and Now tells us to ‘live one day at a time and be present in the moment’ She goes on to say, “let go of the future, because this very moment has the potential to create miracles for your life.”  



My mentors started telling me this way back in 1991. This moment is all you have, once it has gone by, all you will have is that moment. Live your life from one moment to the next, always living in the current moment. I forget this often, so it is important to hear it over and over again, as needed. In fact each time I hear it or read it, I feel it from a deeper or is it a higher perspective! 



Colette says the following in the relationship section of the guidebook:  “The now is all that is available to you!” 



What we do and think now, is what will create our future. 



The second card, number 24, Time for a Nap, also has a moon in the picture. A good reminder of the contrast between day and night, dark and light. (Do I dare say, Red and Blue?) Though, “Time for a nap" may mean take a nap and dream about your future. Create it, your future, in your dreams, first! 



Of course the sleeping fox or possibly a dog, reminds me of Sweet Tilly as she takes a nap in my lap most evenings. The experience of having a peaceful, calm, sleeping puppy in my lap is safe. The sweet sleeping puppy is far different from the sound I am currently hearing.  I hear her chewing on something that sounds similar, but different from the bones and toys we have scattered throughout the house. My intuition says to investigate… so I do. Sure enough, our Ms. Tilly has found a walnut shell to chew on. She is gleefully dancing around the house with it. We play the game “Trade”. A game where I give her a treat for her dangerous find! This will prepare her for all kinds of fun activities in life. 



As I sip my tea, I ponder the meaning of the “trade” game and how it applies to the question and this particular card. Could it mean that we are allowed to “trade” one thought for another? Could it mean that if something is not what we desire or thought that it was, we can “trade’ it for something that is? 



The guidebook actually tells us to "let go, to rest and to rejuvenate". This allows dreams to arise! Ms. Tilly is also learning to ‘let go’ when I play the game of ‘trade’ with her. Maybe this is the message we too must learn. Let go of what is not good for us, "the cares of the world", to allow what is good for us, to arrive. That feels about right. Play the ‘trade’ game. 'Let go' of the thoughts that cause fear and worry, so something better can come forth!



Just imagine. Unlimited. Possibilities. 



33, Chaos and Conflict. Oh my. The picture of a zebra with giraffe markings that are either being covered up or revealed. I can’t tell for sure. I do see that the zebra markings look like puzzle pieces. The animal appears to be curious and relaxed, as if listening to the world around it. One of the essential meanings is "the value of chaos before order". Oh my, do I need to read on? 



Yes, I do, as there is much to learn from this card. The guidebook is full of wonderful insights as to how going through conflict and chaos can be a positive experience. The following sentences stood out for me. “Look upon this as just a moment in time when you may need to take shelter and step away from the fray. Don’t be too eager to fight. This is a time to understand rather than be understood.” 



This is a reminder to me that there are times I too have needed to step away, so that I could put the puzzle pieces of my life back together again. -D said yesterday, “I had to tell my spouse to stop watching the news over the weekend, because it was causing too much stress!” I heard that and thought, yes, I too have had to remove myself from the ‘Chaos and Conflict' that is going on in the world right now. It is OK to do that. Let it go, so something better can arise from the rubble. Like a Phoenix rises from the ashes. 

I asked the same question while shuffling the 3rd deck. This time I was asked to include the collective along with -K and I when I asked it, so I did. The Golden Future Oracle deck by Dianna Cooper gave us 2 cards at the same time. 



‘How do we as a collective create the future we want to live in?’



As I am pondering this question, it occurs to me that the collective is the whole world. It is all of us. Humans, animals, insects, trees, etc. All of us were included in this question. I didn’t specify any one group, I just asked for the collective. We are not alone in this world. What happens to one group or segment of the collective has a ripple effect that spreads out to all of the collective. 



The first card. 22, The Law and 18, Manifestation & Mind Control, both fell out at the same time. I asked our team of guides if they wanted both cards. 'Yes'. 



All I can do is laugh cause Tilly and Nabby are playing, which honestly never has happened before. It is dinner time. They are barking and running back and forth trying to let me know what time it is and that I need to 'focus and act responsibly'. 



The dogs are fed, they have settled down, but before I could feed them, it was a chaotic and gleeful experience for us all. Tilly ran and ran in the backyard which is full of mud at the moment, as the sun melted the snow, but has not yet dried up the earth. Tilly brought in lots of dirt on her paws, but fortunately, I have been preparing her for mud season. 

She sat patiently while I cleaned up her big paws and the floor where she left some of the mud. Once she was clean enough, the crazy chaos continued while I prepared their meals. I was laughing as they ran and played. I suppose I should have stopped it, or tried to, but it makes me happy to hear their happiness. 



During one of their many circles around the kitchen island, Tilly dropped her bone. It landed with full force in the very full water dish. The dish overturned and spilled water everywhere. I was in a very good mood, so instead of being angry with them all for being so chaotic and disruptive, I laughed until I cried, as I cleaned it up. I laughed even more when I realized that they were gathered around me, as I was cleaning it all up. I swear I heard them say, “Oops, sorry mom.” 



This story has several messages hidden within it that go along with the questions we are seeking answers for. Let’s look at the guide book to see if we can find the connection between the current experience of 'chaos' the dogs created by overturning the water bowl and creating the future we desire.  (FYI, I am thinking that the current chaos and conflict in the world was just represented by my dogs. The angels are so very creative.) 



“In the fifth dimension, there is no blame! Everyone will recognize that they attract conditions and circumstances into their lives according to their energy.” It goes on to say, “Everyone will take responsibility for their lives and act sensibly for the benefit of all.” These sentences are from  the guidance section, “Look at the thoughts and emotions you hold, for these have helped to attract or create this situation or relationship.” Yep, I would agree, my thoughts and emotions definitely helped to create the ‘chaos’ in the house a while ago. It’s magical and wonderful to “see” that what we 'think' about and ponder comes to fruition right before our very eyes!!! I am not laughing at the “chaos” in the world at the moment. I am very concerned and yes, worried about it all. Yet, I believe that we are being asked to “LET GO”. The guidebook goes on to say, “It is time to let go of your ego and visualize an outcome that is right and fair and brings happiness to everyone concerned.” 



My dogs brought me that feeling of joy and happiness today while I wrote this for you. They are giving us the message in a very profound and magical way. I am grateful that I felt the messages that they were giving us while I wrote. I am grateful to the eagles and the hawks, along with the loan squirrel, as they inspired us all through their visits. 



The guidebook goes on to tell us to ask the High Priestess, the Goddess of Truth, Pallas Athena, to guide us. “She sees through illusion and will impress truth and integrity into you, so that you make choices that are right and just. She will enable your light to shine brightly.” 



'The Law. Act with common sense and responsibility.' 



18. Manifesting & Mind Control, is last, but certainly not least. "Focus your thoughts". Notice that this picture is also the picture on the cover of the box and guidebook. My intuition is telling me that I will find more answers to this question within the contents of the whole deck and within the covers of the book by the same name. This section has in italics these words.



 “Manifesting for the highest good, using visualization, mind control, crystals and sound, will transform the way people live.” 



“This is a card of power.” Once you are living in the 5th dimension, ‘utilize this gift, and the power of manifestation to help the world!’



WOW, Manifest a magical life and more!

Ms. Debbie - In The Flow: Serendipity

Photos by author

Yesterday, I asked for general cards for myself. New Life, number 39 from the Wisdom of the Oracle Pocket Divination Card deck was first to drop, though the second card also popped out at the exact same time. Happy, Happy, number 26. 



Be ‘happy’ in your ‘new life' is what I felt right away. It was as if these 2 cards were one message. 



By The Book, number 11. Made me smile because I have always said I was going to write a book. I have lots of poetry and many stories saved on a computer that I can’t access well. I have many stories in journals, I have many daily posts saved here and there. Hmmm. Organization has been the most interesting part of this process. Writing is the easy part. I am keeping track of many posts within FB as well as in my drive. I also have a blog. I did write a bit on Medium, but I was tired of the bots. I feel that way now about FB in many respects at the moment, which leads me to the last card, number 18, Serendipity. 



So, if I put them all together, what do I hear, before I look at the guidebook? 



‘Be happy in your new life, you can do things by the book, or follow the moments of serendipity!’



If we look at the results of following my intuition and coincidences that have occurred in my life, vs when I have done things by the book, I can see that listening to my intuition has always brought me to the highest and best outcome. When I tried to follow the “BOOK” and do things the way others wanted me to, life did not always work out the best. I usually had to swim back upstream a bit to make the decision I had originally wanted to make, Or I had to float down some huge rapids to smoother waters because I didn’t take the path around the horrible rocks. The consequences were harsh at times. Some of them have lasted a lifetime. Others are behind me. 



Now that I am retired, my husband and I have lived by this guideline. If it brings you joy, do it. If it doesn’t, let it go. Living life by the book has not always brought joy and happiness. Living life by following the magical breadcrumbs has, because it is living life through serendipity. 



The guidebook by Colette Baron-Reed in the New Life section confirms my gut feeling about this card. “When spring awakens the world, joy and excitement can be felt all around and within your very core.” It goes on to say this, “This is one of those times in your life when new ideas inspire you and new opportunities bring you hope for seeing your dreams come true.” Now that is a very interesting idea. What are my current dreams for my retired life? My ‘New Life’ is before me, what do I wish for? What are my guides leading me to do?


  

The Happy, Happy card, 26, seems like a good answer to those questions! In the essential meanings section the phrases are: “Joy and contentment; a sense of fulfillment; a feeling that all is well.” Seeing the word ‘joy’ brought goosebumps to my soul. “Your happiness is a result of your being at one with Spirit’s plan for your life.” The Prosperity Message section says a lot that I radiate with, but this last sentence sums it all up. Your soul has always known you could accomplish anything if it brought you joy.” Wow, talk about synchronicity and confirmation that I am on the right path. More magical goose bumps.  



Yesterday, we met the new neighbors. They are about the same age that we were when we moved into the neighborhood, way back in 1998. While we were talking, we told them that we are retired and live by the mantra that ‘If it brings us joy, we do it, if it doesn't we don’t do it.’ They looked at each other and back at us. One of them said, “Wow, I love that philosophy. I am going to remember that!”



The card, By The Book. “Essential meanings: Abiding by social rules; conformity; respecting cultural or family customs; universal laws.” Ok, that was not unexpected, so I kept reading. The Oracle’s message talked about each of these in depth but it didn’t fill me with inspiration until I read these two sentences: “Release resistance, for universal laws will correct any disharmony. Open your eyes to these universal laws, and it will be easier to go by the book at this time.” Ok, what the heck are the universal laws they just told me about? I need to look at those again, so I reread them. Here they are: “The Law of Abundance. The Law of Prayer. The Law of Karma. The Law of Attraction. The Law of Thought. The Law of Compensation. The Law of Nature.” She says that these are only a few of the laws that are known. So apparently there are more. 



This card gives me hope in this time of ‘disharmony’ in the country. I have been feeling anxiety and yes, resistance. By letting go and trusting the universe to “fix” this, through the universal laws feels like a huge weight is off my heart. My responsibility is to live in joy, be happy, trust the universe and follow the feel. 



Let’s see what Serendipity brings to the conversation. Essential meanings: Opportunity allied with readiness; the awareness of synchronicity; luck and good fortune appearing as signs and symbols; a magical alignment of events.” Do I need to read more? 



Opportunity, synchronicity, signs and magical events all are words I use frequently, so this card definitely radiates with my soul. I continued reading and realized quickly that I did indeed need to keep reading.  As it turns out, this is a card I need to tattoo on my heart and soul. These 2  sentences are not all of the message, but it does share the essence of it. “Everything you bring into being now, will leave a wondrous legacy for others in the future. Your service to the world is being supported at this time.” 



There are days that I feel like I need to write, but there are also days when I don’t feel like it. There are days I need to play with my puppy or with one of the horses. There are days when I believe it is important to cut, split and stack wood. I have been dancing and laughing more and more. Following the feel and writing about it or doing what is very new to me, creating a spiritual video, must all be part of my pre-birth plan that I have been following all of my life. I have not been able to follow it completely to a T, but I don’t think any of us do. The key is to get back on the path as soon as we can because the Universal Laws have been put into place here on earth to help us along the way. I get to trust that those laws are all at work to create harmony in my life and yours. 


As I write these words, my energy just shifted. I felt a peace and calm come over me. Our dear sweet Miss Tilly Bear woke up from her nap, and would like my attention. So, with that I will close out this post with love and light. 



Manifest a magical day or more!
