Angel Card of the Day - Sept 14, 2012

Today's Card of the Day is 'Morning Affirmations' from the 'Magical Mermaids and Dolphins oracle cards'. Morning Affirmations mean saying positive thoughts at the start of the day, which will make these things happen in your life. You have the ability to make any changes in your life, you just need to affirm. They can open the gates of manifestation. Negative thoughts bring about negative results in your life, they bog you down and make you believe in the wrong things. Being positive can lead to miracles.

Card of the Day - July 26, 2012

Today's Card of the Day from the Healing with the Fairies oracle deck is 'New Opportunity'. There is a new opportunity going to come your way. Be open minded about what comes in your life, as it could be something very unexpected. Do not question it, or wonder if you deserve it. You are worth it and of course you need it, that is why it has come in your life. This opportunity could be an unrealized dream, a wish or something you have thought about casually. Do not let it slip by, and grab it, as you are one of the few lucky ones.

Card of the Day - July 19, 2012

Today's Card of the Day from the Healing with the Fairies oracle is 'Make Music'. Music has the ability to heal the soul. People sing to their babies and to plants and animals. Also, music therapy is a very well-known form of healing. Anytime you feel low, listen to your favorite song, switch on the radio in traffic and see how less irritated u feel driving in peak traffic! You can elevate your moods depending on the type of music. To feel mellow, listen to some soft music or classic symphonies, to get in a romantic mood listen to ballads or love songs, to get energized listen to rock music. Every note activates a different emotion and mood. Play with music, as that is what energy is made up of, sound and vibrations. 

Card of the Day - July 9, 2012

Today's Card of the Day from the 'Healing with the Fairies' Oracle cards is 'Problem Solved'. What a relieving card this is! We are always worried about something or the other. At all times, there is always a lingering problem hovering over us. Sometimes we start questioning ourselves and our paths, and sometimes we get sleepless nights about how to deal with a situation. You need not worry as the fairies say that whatever problem you are facing will be solved very soon. Just leave your problems to them and believe in the Universe. The card shows a fairy holding a snake in her hand. It does not seem like a problem to her and has it wrapped around her arms and fingers. Treat your problems in the same way. They can be tackled and managed. They are larger in your mind, than what they really are.

Card of the Day - July 6, 2012

Today's Card of the Day from the 'Healing with the Fairies' cards is 'Awakening Your True Self '. In the daily routine of our lives, we sometimes forget who we really are. What is our true self? The true self is the self we were when we were born. Do you remember how you were as a child: innocent and curious? naughty and mischevious? Where is that part of your self gone? We keep on changing every moment, and as we experience new things and become wiser, we lose our innocent self. Today make it a point to be curious, inquisitive and childlike. Remember what you used to love doing and try and recreate some aspects of that in your present life. 

Card of the Day - July 4, 2012

Today's Card of the Day from the Healing with the Fairies oracle is ''Honoring your True feelings''. What are you really feeling? Are you happy in your current situation or do you need a change? Honoring your feelings means listening to your inner voice. Is your intuition telling you to go ahead even if logically it seems silly? Do you feel like taking a break even though you need to be working hard at this point? Listen to your feelings as they know more than your logical mind does. The more you honor them, the more they will help you make important decisions. If you ignore your feelings, they will start fading away, leaving you with only your brain to make practical decisions.

Card of the Day - June 2, 2012

Today's Card of the Day is from the 'Healing with the Fairies' deck and as a part of 'Fairy Month', I will be removing cards from this deck and The Fairy Tale Tarot this entire month. Today's Card says ''Be Honest with Yourself''. Honesty is the best policy and the best person to be honest with is yourself. It is no point portraying a fake exterior, when we are truly not happy from inside. We can fool the world, but can we fool our self? If you are not happy, accept it and do something to fix it. Are you living a lie that makes you feel guilty every time you look into someone's eyes? The fairies say that like them, be honest, free and loving beings. In the card, a fairy with beautiful wings looks at her dragonfly companion. She has realized her true self and is being completely honest. Are you? 

Fairies

We all have heard of fairies. They have been associated with a number of things, and people think differently about them, based on what they hear. I first started believing in fairies a long time ago, when I was a child. I read a number of Enid Blyton books, and they always had fairies, pixies, elves, gnomes and garden trolls as protagonists. In these stories, often children would be able to have adventures with these pretty creatures while the boring adults would be fast asleep. What fun! I really started feeling that these fairies exist. I am a believer, so I believe in everything. There is no smoke without fire, and I like to believe that there is some amount of truth in everything that someone or the other believes. Anyways, along with Blyton's books there are many fairy-tales that we listened to and read as a child. Stories included fairy godmothers, witches, magic wands, potions and creatures of Never-never Land. To some extent, there has to be some amount of truth to these stories.

About a few years ago, I was introduced to the world of Doreen Virtue's books. She wrote a number of books about spirituality. I remember the first book I was attracted to was called ''Healing with the Fairies''. It was a story about how she saw fairies in her garden and they helped her find her soul mate, Steven Farmer. It is amazing, that in 'real' life we are hearing about fairies being seen in gardens. She says a number of things about fairies in her books. These fairies are found in gardens, in and around plants, trees, greenery and nature. They are fond of gardeners and those who love the environment. If you call upon them, they can help your garden bloom beautifully. Where ever you see mushrooms (which are their houses!) they are sure to be around there somewhere. So who are fairies? They are nature angels who are always ready to help you. In an interview with Doreen Virtue taken from another website www.healyourlife.com, she answers basic questions and myths about fairies.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q.  Are fairies mischievous pranksters?

A.  Fairies, like all humans and other Earth-dwellers have egos. That means that they don’t automatically love everyone unconditionally as the egoless angels do. Fairies are very loving beings, but they favor people who treat the environment and animals kindly.

Since fairies play tricks on those who mistreat nature or animals, they’ve earned a reputation for mischief. Fairies also love parties, playfulness, dancing, and music. As these behaviors have been frowned upon at various times in our societal and religious history, these beings have also been denigrated.

Q.  Are fairies real, or are they mythical?

A.  Fairies are as real as you and me. They’re as real as angels. Yet, only people who believe, are open-minded, or have a pure heart can sense or see them. Fairies are very shy and sensitive beings who hide from harsh environments or people. So those who are prone to skepticism can’t see or feel the fairies.

Cultures also have an influence on people’s acceptance of the fairies. In the United Kingdom (especially Ireland and Scotland), Australia, Polynesia, and other countries, there’s a widespread belief in fairies and elementals. The countries that treat nature and animals with the most respect also tend to have the highest belief in fairies.

Q.  Where can I find fairies?

A.  Fairies live wherever there are plants or animals. They live near houseplants and pets. However, they’re especially fond of the wilderness. They don’t like pesticides or tightly manicured gardens.

Q.  A psychic told me that she saw fairies around me. What does that mean?

A.  Some people have fairies as spirit guides. Fairies stay with people who have a life purpose involving environmentalism or animals. You can ask the fairies for guidance about how to help the earth. In addition, fairies help us lighten up and be playful.

Q.  Are fairies fallen angels?

A.  God made fairies as the angels of nature. They’re beings of pure, Divine light and love with an important mission of healing and protecting the environment and animals. Like humans, fairies have egos. So they’re not unconditionally loving like the celestial angels. However, fairies are kind and fair.

Q.  Can you trust fairies? Do they ever harm people?

A.  You earn the fairies’ respect by extending kindness toward Mother Nature. Recycling, using Earth-friendly cleaning supplies (available at any health food store), and donating to environmental causes are just a few of the behaviors that fairies look for in their potential human friends. Once you earn the fairies’ respect, they’ll do anything for you.

Fairies don’t harm people, but they can play tricks on those whom they view as cruel toward animals or the environment. Sometimes they play mild practical jokes (like temporarily hiding things) on people they love as a way of being playful.

Q.  Can fairies become human, or vice versa?

A.  Some people who look like fairies, gnomes, leprechauns, mermaids, and pixies are elemental souls who’ve elected to have human lives so that they can help the environment and animals in a big way. I’ve written about this topic in my books Healing with the Fairies,  Earth Angels, and Goddesses & Angels.

Q.  Is it true that fairies or leprechauns can bring you a pot of gold?

A.  Many people report that the elementals help them with finances. While the fairies and leprechauns usually don’t bring literal pots of gold, they do bestow good fortune upon those humans whom they favor. This is one of many reasons to make friends with the fairies.

To celebrate the month of July as Fairy month, I will be removing the Daily Card of the Day from my 'Healing with the Fairies Oracle cards' and 'The Fairy Tale Tarot'. Fairies always encourage you to have fun, and they often play games at night when no one is watching! They love to sing, dance and party! They love the environment and encourage you to play outdoors and spend more time with flowers and their butterfly and dragonfly companions. Read out fairy stories to your children and make them believers! 

Card of the Day - June 30, 2012

Today's Card of the Day from the Ascended Masters Oracle Cards is 'Priorities' and the Ascended Master associated with this card is King Solomon. Solomon was a very wise king, so he is there with us today, to help us make wise decisions and settle our lives. Often, we are confused, as we have so many things to do that we feel we don't have enough time. Today ask yourself, ''What are my priorities?'' Is there some activity you do that wastes your time and is unnecessary? Are you playing too much Temple Run when you should be completing a deadline? Are you watching too much television instead of completing a project. You should have fun in your life, but when that interferes with an important priority, then you need to know when to draw the line. Do you have a friend who complains constantly about her problems or gossips about everybody? Is she wasting your time and energy? Use your time wisely, as it is precious. Health should be the most important priority for everybody. If you are not well, do not over work yourself. Cancel your appointments and call in sick at work and give your body the much needed rest it needs. 

Card of the Day - June 26, 2012

Today's Card of the Day is from the Ascended Masters Oracle Deck. I asked for a message that we all need to hear right now from the various Gods and Goddesses present in these beautiful gilded 44 cards and I picked Paul the Venetian and the message is 'Artistic Expression'. We all feel the need to express ourselves, if we are unexpressed (like I was since a week!) you tend to feel dull and lifeless. The energy just isn't enough to sustain you. It is important to express yourself everyday, in some form or the other either through song, dance, writing, painting, cooking or gardening. Being artistic is a facet of everybody's nature, and without it being tapped, you always feel that something is missing. So, today take out the time to express yourself in artistic ways. If you have any difficulty doing this, call upon Paul the Venetian and he will help you.
