The Angels Need a Stable Place to Land

REMINDER from Mano:

When the human world moves into crisis, the angelic and elemental guardians and guides are called into action to maintain peace and harmony within your life, heart, and mind. A moment of gratitude is always welcome.

REMARKS from Barbara:

While in quarantine I am setting my timer every three hours to sit for 7 minutes with a silent mind and expanded heart.

REMEMBERING Mary Jane:

I feel her love and concern.

The Angels Need a Stable Place to Land

Blog #85

A gentle rain is speaking to me through the drops on my skylight. The fire elementals and earth elementals are keeping me warm as a log burns quietly in the fireplace. I am at my favorite work place in my cottage. A collapsible table is in front of me with binders, piles of paper, a hole punch and stapler, all at attention supporting my process of organizing and reorganizing the massive record keeping I love doing while my life progresses and I keep track of the process.

There is a lot of concern about the Coronavirus. Meetings are being canceled. Our local Art Center has closed its doors for a month. A friend just called from Chicago to see if I am aware  that people over 70 are being asked to stay in the house. I had not heard that news. Being 92 I am beyond the age told to stay home, and I know they would include my age also.

I have been pondering whether to follow my original plan to go into town for five days to keep appointments and have dinner with my son and his wife. The unspoken agreement between us is I take them to dinner, then after dinner we all play my most favorite game in all the world, Rummycub. I have waited all year for my annual trip with John to Big Sur for breakfast at Deetjen’s. It was a hard choice but I have decided to postpone my trip to town and all of the other fun things I had planned.

I have not yet talked with Mano or Rama for their advice on my choice but they involved themselves in my decision by guiding me to papers written in 2001, six days after the crash of the World Trade Towers.

At that time I wrote, “My Council of Gnomes want to teach me ways I can co-create and cooperate with nature to maintain balance and harmony within myself and within the planet, and all who share the planet both visible and invisible. They asked me to prepare myself to align with their energies by moving into my grounded, expanded heart space. Today I sit in my studio, candle lit, prayers said, fire going, computer on my lap. There are 7 Gnomes present around the circle, total of 8 present counting me.”

I heard one speak, “It is a hard time on the planet earth. There is much sadness and fear. We are called upon in ways that are many and varied to bring balance to the internal structure of the planet, to hold her on a balanced course.

“The emotional bodies of many throughout humanity are so out of balance they are causing a dangerous situation for The Mother. We are asking you and many humans who consciously work with us, to keep your own life in balance and harmony.

“Stay rested, keep your vibration high so you can be part of the solution not an addition to the problem of emotional imbalance. This is why we asked you to cancel your trip to New Orleans to visit your friends. We did not want you to be in the airport at this time. We have need of you on the mountain in your quiet cottage, with a silent voice and quiet mind.

“The focus for the grounded, expanded heart is IMPERTRIVE at this time. We need this to be an established fact for you right now. And from this time forth. The Angels need a stable place to land.”

Over and over they have encouraged me to live from a balanced heart and quiet mind. They guided me to an exercise I learned years ago from Conrad Satala: 

Focus my attention in my heart
Ask my heart to expand…expand…expand again, and again
Don’t do anything to make it expand
Just ask and allow it to expand

When I feel the expansion, I sit for a while with my expanded heart. Then I get up and go about my day’s work holding the expanded heart as long as I can.

The Council continues their message, “Never be discouraged when you lose your expanded heart space. To keep on keeping on is the only way to learn. The times you think to look and notice you are in your head are the times you have slipped out of your heart. Your attention is drawn to it immediately because it feels so different.

The Gnomes conclude, “We work in joy as we work with you. This joy comes from our grateful heart. We invite you to also practice living with a grateful heart so that your joy may be full.
