Magical Gifts and Goodies: Focus

Photo by Author

The man in the Magic Glass has so much focus! He looks like he is watching something! I saw him Sunday morning! I pondered his message all day! What is he watching so intently with such great focus?

When I look at his profile, I am reminded of my dad. Could this be a grandfather on my dad's side, or a picture of one of his uncles? I know his uncle was very involved in his younger years. I don't remember him though. I don't remember his name at the moment either. Hmm, if it is important, it will come to me or I will find it in the papers my dad left me!

Focus!

As we were running errands my focus turned to this particular license plate! Actually it was pulled, like a magnet pulls a nail to its heart. I was delighted when I saw it! My angel team put us in exactly the right spot to see this particular plate, today! It was a magical gift because everything about it is a sign from members of my Angelic Team.

The KRH sounds like our last name! April is an important month and the numbers are equally important, too!

My dad loved numbers, so as he learned to communicate from the other side, we started using meaningful numbers for some of our communication language! This brings me back to the days we took long trips together. Dad was always quizzing us with math facts which eventually became story problems.

My mom loved words and phonics! She uses words in license plates! When on long trips with her, she would have us look for letters of the alphabet anywhere we could find them. Eventually we had to spell words with the letters we could see.

My friend loved symbols (HEARTS, HORSES and UNICORNS were our favorite), numbers and letters! 608 was her area code, so she gets those numbers or our shared birthday numbers on Wisconsin plates! I saw a 608 Wisconsin plate today, too! No picture, but I saw it as we were driving out of the last parking lot as we were discussing what else we needed to do for the day!

Focus!

Strong focus was what Onyx had, too! I wondered what he was looking at before we arrived home. He was as close to the road as this corner allowed him to be. I remembered seeing our neighbor walking up the road as we drove in. I suspect Onyx had been watching for her to return! He is so very attentive, social and focused!

Focus!

Focus was also what these Geese had tonight as I walked to the barn! I love listening to and watching the Canadian Geese as they fly overhead, but it's goose hunting season! They know it. Hunters hunt all around us, too! To the West, to the South and to the East of us, goose blinds pop up every fall with lots and lots of decoys to fool the geese into flying too close to the hunters.

These Geese had just skirted south of a huge hunting field full of decoys, which I saw as we drove home. They avoided it by flying east over our safe, no hunting zone property. Just east of us is yet another dangerous hunting area. Their goal was to fly north, back to the lake for the night, but they had to really focus to avoid the hunters snares!

When they saw me walking to the barn, they quickly veered in a north-easterly direction! I missed the short side of the V formation in this picture, as the flock put the trees between us! I actually smiled because they were focused and wise! They didn't know I was not a hunter, I was in the area of the traps, so as far as they were concerned, I represent danger to the flock.

I wished them safe travels! I thanked them for sparking great memories, too! As a young adult, when I was not living close to my childhood stomping grounds, whenever I returned home, the Geese always received my focus as they flew overhead! I knew I was "home" when I heard them and saw their distinctive flying formation! Interestingly, I grew up on the North side of town, so when the flocks of geese were heading to the lake, from that location, they flew South. Just the opposite of how they fly from my current residence. When we moved here 25 years ago, it actually caught me off guard that first fall. I remember noticing this change. Their home had not changed, but mine had!

Focus!

Members of my angelic team continue to communicate with me from the other side of the veil. This time, my home has not changed, but their location certainly has. Just like when the geese changed directions as they flew home when my location changed 25 years ago, my team of angels can still communicate with me! It is different, but familiar. It has been many years since I first connected with my much smaller angelic team, but when I first noticed them, it caught me off guard, too! It has taken my attention, trust, and focus, but when I recognize their energy signatures and attempts to communicate, they receive my focus!

Focus?

What is your focus on?

Do you notice messages, friends or foes when they are close by?

Can you detour smoothly away from a dangerous situation in order to return your focus back on your goal or to return to your home?

Magical Gifts and Goodies: Majestic Mammals

Photo by Debbie Soderberg Kirchner

This adorable baby elephant showed up in the Magic Glass a couple of days ago. When I showed it to Dan, he noticed an image of a whale on the right side, too! I told him that it was one of my favorite angelic gifts from the Magic Glass, before he noticed the whale. Now, it is one of my top 5. 

Two large majestic mammals, one lives on land, one lives in the sea! They are strong, brave and beautiful. A whale has visited me many times in meditation. Calling me to tune into these particular words and play them like a chord on a piano or guitar.

"Calm! Peace! Abundance!"

I was easily able to tune into Calm and Peace, but I struggled with adding the tone, energy and note of the word Abundance to the chord. This was my assignment for my meditation from July 28th, 2021! I mentioned that maybe I needed to listen to whale songs in order to connect to the vibration of Abundance! I did this a couple of times, but still the Abundance note eluded me. I wrote about the Whale this fall, as well, because I have had several whale images appear in the Magic Glass! I was still not able to tune into the vibration of abundance. It felt foreign and unreachable.

Interestingly, I am actually feeling a deeper connection to this image and the assignment I was given in 2021 in this moment in time. Today, my body started vibrating at a really high level, as I pondered the meaning of this whale image! I can feel and connect easily now to calm, once again! I feel calm in my heart, it is warm and beats rhythmically at a slow and steady pace. I feel peace in the center of my belly. It feels like joy as it harmonizes with the rhythm of calm!

I wonder if the vibration in my legs is where the energy of Abundance is felt? Is this the note I have been seeking? Is this all encompassing feeling, the gift I have magically been given to feel? It is a feeling of excitement that blends beautifully with the frequency of calm, a steady rhythm in my heart and peace, a joyful vibrational blessing!

"Calm! Peace! Abundance!"

Playing the 3 notes and words together, like a chord, was my assignment. Today, I feel the chord being played as one for the first time. Today, I can connect them together as I celebrate and appreciate my life and my journey. I recognized each note individually and can summon them to play as one. WOW!!!

It's true, I live an amazing life! It is full of magical gifts and goodies! It always has been! I can see and feel that now, as I open my heart, soul and mind to write about magical gifts! I am tuning into the message of the whale and for that I am grateful. I can feel the Magical Fairy Dust falling down upon me.

"Calm! Peace! Abundance!"

Since, I felt drawn to the elephant, first! What is the gift, the message and the reason I saw the elephant first? A baby elephant, too! Is it giving me a new assignment? Is it asking me to look within for the strength, the wisdom and the perseverance elephants represent? Is this the new chord I am asked to feel?

"Strength! Wisdom! Perseverance!"

What is the meaning of both of these images, together? It feels as though, playing these 2 chords is important! I don't sense that they need to be played at the same time, but alternately, like chords in a song. Magically giving and receiving as the song reveals itself. The whale image represents the way I strive to feel on the inside. This allows me to be strong, to be wise and to be persistent throughout my magical life!

The notes are played together and individually. Being calm, peaceful and abundant brings us to the incredible notes and vibrational magic of feeling strong and wise with perseverance to stay the course! Dance with the gracefulness of the whale, run with the power of the elephant. Be magnificent, be regal, be the best that you can be today, so that tomorrow will be, too!

Have you been given an assignment while doing your personal meditation or reflection practice?

Did you understand the message right away or did you need time to ponder the message or lesson?

Have you ever started out thinking you were going to do or say one thing, but something completely different found its way into your words, thoughts or journal?

Magical Gifts and Goodies: December's Focus

Photo by Debbie Soderberg Kirchner

I woke up this morning with "Gifts" stuck in my mind! Hmmm, as I recall, I mentioned in October that I would write about Gifts in December!

Apparently, my Angelic Team agrees that "Gifts" is a good topic for December, as a commercial titled, 'Gift to the Maxx', just came on TV! I love it when synchronicity events happen!

I was playing with titles for this month's practice to see which one felt best. These are some of the ones I thought of: Magical Gifts, Angelic Gifts, Universal Gifts, etc.! It felt like I was missing at least one word though!

I envision writing about gifts received from angels, spirit guides, universal energy, or Gaia, etc.! I felt like I needed a title that was all inclusive.

When I told Dan, my amazing husband, that I was struggling with the exact title, he was so helpful! "It will come to you!" is what he said. Ok, that was not exactly what I wanted to hear, but as it turned out it was exactly what I needed to do.

So, I let it go! I made breakfast, I read through the December 2023 Forecast, by Debbra Lupien, I ate breakfast and scrolled through Facebook posts!

As I was putting wood on the fire, the word "Goodies" popped into my head! That must be the word I am missing!

On many of the social media videos I watch, they open 'Gifts and Goodies' from their fans. I enjoy watching them open and comment on the items they receive. I tend to feel all of the feels. I giggle, cry and celebrate with them, when they get a really cool gift from someone. These Lives are usually lighthearted, full of gratitude and enjoyable to watch.

So, after toying with various titles, narrowing it to two and asking others for their input. I have settled on this for the name of December's posts: Magical Gifts and Goodies:(current focus for the day)

Have you ever been told to let something go, to allow the right words to bubble up?

Was it hard to let go of the struggle?

When you finally let go, did the perfect solution appear out of nowhere?

Angelic Communion Practice: Heartfelt Gratitude

Photo by Author

Today is the last day of November. I must say, I am grateful that I decided to do this month-long practice. For various reasons I didn't write a post a day, but I definitely was communing with the angels on those days.

I realized that I could do better when I first started, I realize now, that I still can do better... however, I feel like I am starting to engage in actual conversation with my Angels. I ask, listen to, answer and thank my team more often than I once did, say a year ago.

My life feels fuller, happier and more joyful. I notice little miracles happening all around me. I smile and give thanks to my team for these miracles more frequently.

One interesting thing I have noticed is when I reread my posts, I don't recognize my words as being mine. I don't talk the way I write, I don't always think the way I write either. When I write, I am gifted the words, the thoughts and the ideas. I go into a zen like space, which I love. I am soooo grateful to be able to do this for myself as well as others.

I saw someone today who I had not seen for about a year. This person was very worried about me a year ago. She was excited to see how content and happy I am now. She said she could see it on my face and feel it in my words. I just felt so much joy when she said this.

I believe, writing and sharing Rock Reflections all summer with Bear, Gratitudes during October and the Angelic Communion Practice this month has put me into a healthier state of mind.

I loved this Magic Glass image from this morning. Another beautiful heart from our Angels to share with you. Love is the answer, listen with love, ask with love, respond with love. I believe they loved this month of Angelic Communion, too!

What do you do to help you to become your best you?

Do you do the same thing everyday, once a week, whenever you feel low or when you remember to do it?

Do you share your practice with others or keep it to yourself?

With Heartfelt Gratitude, Manifest a Magical Day!

Angelic Communion Practice: A Decorating Miracle

Photo by Author

It is getting darker and colder in the northern hemisphere! I recently ordered these fun curtains. I can raise them up or lower them, because the rod is attached with magnets! They are perfect and add a positive vibe to this area of the house! I can't help but smile when I see them. They are also insulated, so will keep us warmer at night! We have 2 doors in this area that I decorated with these cheerful thermal curtains. 

Photo by Author

Yesterday, we ran some errands. I had secretly been hoping to find a new rug for each of these two doors. The brown one no longer brings a smile to my face. It was very apparent once I added the curtains. I have a red rug at both the front and garage doors. They will be perfect. All four main floor doors in our small house will have the same rug. Perfect, right? 

Photo by Author

HMMMM, I was wrong, very, very wrong! 

As I walked down the aisle at the store I saw the perfect rug. It was even on clearance. I took it in my hands, showed it to my husband who agreed, it was perfect. 

Unfortunately, there was only one of them. Only one.... just one, uno. Darn. I put it back on the shelf and told my husband that if there were two, I would have bought them both, but since there is only one. I will keep looking. We started to walk down the isle, looking for other options. 

Photo by Author

I just happened to turn back to admire that one rug one more time when out of the corner of my eye walked a store employee with another rug, just like the one I had just put down. I was so excited I walked up to her and asked if I could buy that one, too! She said it had been in the wrong aisle and was just returning it, so yes, I could indeed purchase it. I was jumping up and down inside, to the point that I blurted out, "Do you want to see why these are exactly what I need? Here, let me show you a picture!" 

She must have thought I had a loose screw, but she obliged me and looked at my picture of the red and white checked curtains hanging up on my door. She agreed that these rugs would indeed be perfect. I thanked her for her perfect timing. I also thanked my Angels for creating a lovely miracle!

Photo by author

I am so very humbled by this sweet miracle. The curtains made me smile all by themselves, but now with the red and white checked rugs to go with them, I am grinning from ear to ear! 

Life is full of big and little miracles, have you been noticing the magical gifts in your life? 

Gratitude for these Angelic gifts, brings more magical miracles into my life, have you noticed this too? 

Smiling from ear to ear feels so good, it hasn't always been this way for me. Through gratitude and communing with my Angelic Team, I have leveled up. Will you level up with me, too?

Angelic Communion Practice: Magic Glass Discovery

 

Photo by Debbie Soderberg Kirchner 

This beautiful Magical Glass has been with me since 1984. It was a gift! One of a set of 4. I don't remember who gifted it to me, though I remember picking it out to add to the registry! I was instantly mesmerized by its curves and mystical design! 

I had no idea how magical it was, nor the images it would evntually reveal! I just knew it was perfect and called to me! I was so very grateful when I carefully removed the silver wrapping paper with a white bow and wedding bells, to find them all nested in a protective box! 

I have moved this particular Magic Glass several times since 1984. I have used it for water, orange juice and red wine! It brings me joy, it always has! I cried when each of the 3 other glasses, chipped, broke or shattered into a million pieces! 

I wonder if I would have discovered the magic it holds, if the set would have remained in tact? I highly doubt it!

How did I discover the Magic hidden within this crystal clear glass? My Angelic Team and Spirit Guides brilliantly sprinkled magical breadcrumbs for me to notice! I have been gifted birds, feathers and numbers for years! So, I am used to recieving messages from the other side of the veil. 

Angelic communication is creative and magical but, it's a 2 way street! It's a language both sides learn and is unique, yet similar for all! 

How was I lead to discover the Magic Glass images?

In June, just before my dad's heavenly birthday, we were driving through the woods! I took several pictures and shared them on Facebook. A friend noticed a face in the trunk of the tree on the right! Can you see it? 

A Guardian Angel, a Spirit Guide, or a Magical Tree Nymph, Gnome or Pixie! We named this trail Wishbone Trail, because it splits just past this magical tree! 

Photo by Debbie Soderberg Kirchner 

The day after my dear friend crossed  this rock heart magically appeared! It was a powerful message and significant sign from her and my team, that she was ok!  

Hearts are so incredibly symbolic, it was not the first time I have received them from my Angelic Team, nor was it the last heart image I was gifted! 

Photo by Debbie Soderberg Kirchner 

Two days later, I peeled the sticker off of this apple! Fyi, my dear friend was also a retired teacher! She was strong and having fun! I was grieving and incredibly grateful for her kindness! 

I believe she found and joined my team of angels. She knew my vibrational signature and frequency, so could locate me quickly! My team helped her learn the ABC's and she added her personal touch! Team work at its finest!

Unfortunately, both of my senior dogs started to show more signs of failing health. I had a difficult decision to make! Stay home from the Celebration of Life, or go! I felt guided to stay home! This image appeared in the sky right around the time I was making the decision!  Staying home, was the right decision.  I have no regrets!

Photo by Debbie Soderberg Kirchner 

My seniors joined my Angel Team, full of Universal wisdom, within the month! Tough days were ahead. My angels were close by!

Photo by Debbie Soderberg Kirchner 

I played with my horses in honor of my friend on her day of celebration!  

The horse and the two playful dog images appeared in the sky above our barn! I was reflecting upon my friend and her many friends, as I read their amazing tributes to her on her page when the images appeared! I had tears streaming from my eyes, as I took this picture! 

All of these amazing images my team sent me surprised me, but my heart was open and incredibly grateful! I was ready to receive. I was ready to continue this magical conversation! I was ready to go deeper!

I thanked my team with every new image, I also challenged my team as I watched for more unigue messages to arrive! Messages that continued to heal my heart and guide me on this Magical Adventure of life!

Photo by Debbie Soderberg Kirchner 

One of the many treasured images, that appeared in the sky, during my senior dogs hospice days, was this beautiful Teddy Bear with a heart on his chest!

I honestly don't remember seeing so many meaningful cloud images, since I was a child! I am so very grateful that I was reminded to look up again, that I noticed, and that I was and continue to be receptive to communication with the otherside of the veil! 

Photo by Debbie Soderberg Kirchner 

The day Bella joined the Angels the clouds howled! The song was heard, the message was heartfelt! We lit a candle and shared her many stories! She was special, sweet and kind!

Photo by Debbie Soderberg Kirchner 

Messages aren't always images, though this story is primarily about them! It is important to note that the day Bear, my heart dog, let me know he was ready to cross, we were devastated! We weren't ready to let him go! 

My heart was so incredibly heavy when this adorable horse appeared just after we said goodbye to him! 

I was looking for signs that he was ok! The horse peaked out from under a car as we walked through a parking lot! I picked it up, thanked my team, and set it up on the median to hopefully be seen! I  have to admit I wanted to keep this treasured find!

As we drove away, I saw that the little one had been lovely retrieved and put back into the car with a little girl! My heart was full!

Photo by Debbie Soderberg Kirchner 

This lovely mushroom, in the shape of a heart, also appeared right after his crossing! We noticed it while we took a drive through our trails! Yes, Bear had earned his angel wings and was ok!

Have you ever seen a heart shaped giant wild mushroom? I hadn't! 

Photo by Debbie Soderberg Kirchner 

I had never seen a heart in the bottom of a horses feed bucket, either! I had just finished an amazing play time with Onyx, my gaited palomino! I felt my friend was with me as we played at liberty! She loved to play at liberty with her beautiful horses! Teaching them to be good citizens was her specialty! 

We had talked a lot about Onyx on the phone and through texts about what he needed from me, to become a very good citizen. It was a magical play session! I could hear her words and feel her energy as we played. It was truly a Magical Adventure I will also treasure! 

I had been thinking that Onyx may very well be my unicorn while we were playing, because it was as if we were sharing one mind, one soul and one body! 

When I spotted this perfect heart in his feed bowl, I felt the truth in my heart! He is my unicorn! He just needed time, as did I, to become one with me! 

Hearts have been an incredible way for my Angel Team to get my attention along with other meaningful images! So early this fall, while taking my evening vitamins, I was pleasantly surprised when I saw this perfect heart in the bottom of what I now call, the Magic Glass! 

Photo by Debbie Soderberg Kirchner 

I have been inspired to write many stories from the many images I have been magically drawn to see! Some stories are memories, some are current experiences, some are happy, and some are sad! I trust there will be many more stories bubbling up to be shared from future images, as I trust that they will continue to appear and inspire my heart to write!

All of these stories have felt guided by my angelic team, my Spirit Guides or the collective divine universal energy I gratefully connect with! I continue to be amazed and in awe, because I am never alone when I write! 

Yesterday, we experienced the magic of winter! Snow! Beautiful white snow! Clean and fresh!  

As I walked to the barn I noticed the first horse show angel of the season! Can you see the tail feathers left in the snow? It's stunning, beautiful and mesmerizing! 

Photo by Debbie Soderberg Kirchner 

It's a perfect image made by my unicorn! A message to always look for the Magic, as it is everywhere!  

Look high, and look low! Magical images are on trees, in the sky, in the bottom of a bucket, in the shape of a rock, in the snow or within an image in the bottom of a Magic Glass! 

Photo by Debbie Soderberg Kirchner 

My heart skipped a beat when I saw the mystical horse head and heart image this morning!  The Magic Glass created yet another masterpiece! It's beautiful and perfect for this moment in time!

May your Angelic Communion Practice be more magical than mine!

Have you discovered your Angelic Teams unique way to communicate with you,  either as individuals or as a collective? 

Do you ask questions and feel the responses as they arrive? 

Can you look back at your life now and see the mystical breadcrumbs they magically left for you to follow?

Manifest a magical day! 

Angelic Communion Practice: Distractions and Dolphins

 

Photo by Debbie Soderberg Kirchner

As I pondered today's post I reflected on life in general. I didn't have anything to write about, so I thought! I hadn't taken any new pictures yesterday of anything I felt drawn to write about this morning. I decided that I would become inspired by something, eventually, as I went about my morning and I did. 

I have to say that today I noticed just how incredibly distracted I can be.  For example, Tipper needed to be fed. However, mid preparation of her food, I was distracted, I started getting my coffee ready. We have a really cool new coffee maker. It grinds the beans, so you have fresh ground coffee. I left Tipper's food on the island, I had to add water to her canned food and pour it into the kibble. I had measured her kibble and canned food, but when I turned the water on.... I was distracted by the coffee! I needed coffee!!

I cleaned the filter and coffee pod out and put it on the coffee maker and pressed the button that says grind. At that moment, I noticed Tipper as she grabbed her bone. Something she does right before she eats. Yep, she had to bring my focus back to the most important task at hand. FEEDING HER!

Photo by Debbie Soderberg Kirchner

She was so patient with me, even though I was distracted and didn't feed her before making the coffee. She didn't bark, or whine or fuss. She just waited patiently for me to magically notice her. She got my attention, by picking up her bone, but she did it politely. I actually laughed when it occurred to me that my Angelic Team must feel like Tipper. They ever so politely bring my focus back to what is most important! Living a magical life and of course, writing about it!

My Magic Glass gave me two meaningful images with messages today and a 3rd I am not sure if it has a meaning or not. It may represent distraction or stillness, or stay open as the message will come. 

Photo by Debbie Soderberg Kirchner

As I added the Magic Glass image, just now, I saw an image of an inquisitive beluga whale emerging right in front of me. There it was, beautiful, stunning and staring right into my heart. They are sending me the message to breathe, listen and be. The words will come, the image will magically appear when you need to see it. The messages will come when you are ready to hear them. Be patient!

Another image I was given today was a ROCK. Yes, a Rock! This summer I spent most every morning grounding and writing Rock Reflections, with Bear. A beautiful soul. A Black Lab/Wired-haired Griffin Cross. He barked and danced until we went out to the chair to write. He is now a member of my Angelic Team. I never knew what would magically flow from my fingers, if anything! I just knew I needed to give myself a space, a time, an opening, to let the words spring from my heart onto the page. Bear, was insistent that we spend time together at the ROCK every single day. Even when I did not feel like writing or when I was distracted, there he was insisting that we go sit together. I am so very grateful to him for being a part of this magical adventure I am on. So, when I saw this image of a ROCK, the message this morning was clear. I needed to give myself space and time, instead of being distracted. I needed to get grounded, I needed to spend time at the ROCK. 

Photo by Debbie Soderberg Kirchner

Today, I was drawn to sit in my chair, near the fire, as it is cold outside. After Bear crossed, I soon stopped Rock Reflections, however, look where I intuitively put Bear's ashes!

Photo by Debbie Soderberg Kirchner

For a day when I thought I had absolutely nothing to say, this post is long, as I was called to focus on each image. The words appeared, I just had to get out of the way and allow them to flow. There is one more image that the Magic Glass shared today. The image that called to me first, is the image of the dolphin holding a ball. Come play with me. Dance with me. Swim with me! Be joyful and creative as you travel on this magical adventure, we call life!

Photo by Debbie Soderberg Kirchner

Being in the moment is so very important. Can you feel the shift in your heart, when you take the time to just be? 

Do you have a place in the woods, near a stream, or maybe a deep blue ocean where you can go, either in your mind or in person to be one with nature and your Angelic Team? (Spirit Guides, inner wisdom, Universal Energy, etc.)

When you allow your heart to be still, to heal, to feel open and joyful, creativity bubbles up. Have you taken your moment today to be one with yourself and your Team? 

Manifest a Magical Day!
