New Beginnings 2008
I had already started working on my post for today when I received this very appropriate email from Doreen Virtue’s Angel Therapy Newsletter:
“2008’s energy is gentle, loving, and compassionate. 2008 embraces us with love, even as it teaches us how to use the power of our mind and emotions.
Adding together all of the digits in 2+0+0+8, we receive the sum of 10. Add these two digits together 1+0, and you have a 1. The number 1 means: “Your thoughts are instantly manifesting into form.”
As a 1 year, 2008 promises adventures in getting immediate reactions to your thoughts and emotions. Everything you think about will instantly appear in your life. So the key to enjoying a blissful 2008 is to keep your thoughts dialed on Love.”…
“I ask that you open my heart to Divine Love, and help me to feel safe, protected, and energized. Please help me to adjust my life so that it is in alignment with my truth and integrity. Help me to release any emotional energy drains, now and completely. Help me to release any old anger, unforgiveness, resentment, or other emotional toxins, now and forever. Help me to have the courage to be my true self in all ways. Thank you, Amen.”
2007 appears to have been a year of transformation and rebuilding for many of us. We need to take a little time to reflect and let go. This will provide space for the new to enter into our lives. You might also want to visit this blog post by Molly Brogan, The Sacred Space of Relationships. Guess this post is a little more personal than I usually expose but I think many can relate. One of my favorite books of all time is The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho. I’d like to share this beautiful quote on love, trust and dreams from his book…
“At that moment, it seemed to him that time stood still, and the Soul of the World surged within him. When he looked into her dark eyes, and saw that her lips were poised between an laugh and silence, he learned the most important part of the language that all the world spoke–the language that everyone on earth was capable of understanding in their heart. It was love. Something older than humanity, more ancient than the desert. Something that exerted the same force whenever two pairs of eyes met, as had theirs here at the well. She smiled, and that was ceertainly an omen–the omen he had been awaiting, without even knowing he was, for all his life….
It was the pure Language of the World. It required no explanation, just as the universe needs none as it travels through endless time. What the boy felt at that moment was that he was in the presence of the only woman in his life, and that, with no needs for words, she recognized the same thing. He was more certain of it than anything in the world. He had been told by his parents and grandparents that he must fall in love and really know a person before becoming committed. But maybe people who felt that way had never learned the universal language. Because, when you know that language, it’s easy to understand that someone in the world awaits you, whether it’s in the middle of the desert or in some great city. And when two such people encounter each other, and their eyes meet, the past and the future become unimportant. There is only that moment, and the incredible cretainty that everything under the sun has been written by one hand only. It is the hand that evokes love, and creates a twin soul for every person in the world. Without such love, one’s dreams would have no meaning.”

Spot on…exactly perfect for this eve of the new year. Thank you.
In completely synchronicity, I just finished reading The Alchemist and I simply loved it. So much wisdom that deeply resonated with me. I’m currently reading The Mist of Avalon by Marion Zimmer Bradley, and I highly recommend it so far.
I’m glad I found your blog, you write wonderfully. I too enjoy Doreen Virtue’s wisdom.
Thanks for the mention in your beautiful New Year’s message. It was nice to find your blog this way. I will be back often for more of your delicious gift. Molly Brogan
