We are drawing on the compassionate and timeless wisdom of The Gabriel Messages to provide insight and inspiration that we can apply every day in our busy lives.
For this week’s issue, the card that was chosen is to teach us about the greater aspects and benefits of loving ourselves.
The Gabriel Message card for this week
True Wisdom and Pure Love Go Hand in Hand. You must love all of yourself before True Wisdom takes solid root inside you.
There seems to be a theme developing in the Gabriel Message cards that have been chosen at random recently. They all seem to speak to the importance of loving oneself.
Thinking of this from another perspective, I was reminded about how life has accelerated in the recent years. It is becoming ever more clear that we are in a co-creative process in life. We cannot expect to just ask to receive what we want and think it will magically manifest. (Believe me, I’ve tried!)
What is clearly necessary is that I match the vibration of what it is that I am asking for in my life. This is that infamous Law of Attraction that we have heard so much about. To be in harmony with this cosmic law, I am required to consciously monitor my attitude about my life and how I am thinking about myself.
I have noticed that I like certain aspects of myself much better than others. In the past there were parts of my personality that I was extremely judgmental about, and these judgments outweighed my attention to all the delightfully talented, beautiful and positive parts of myself. Self-criticism seemed to be the most important attitude I held about how I was progressing in life. When I can give myself the compassion and caring expression that I most need, things flow much more easily. If I focus on how hard things are and how badly I am handling my life, it only seems to get worse.
That downward spiral is a difficult one to get out of because we just keep attracting more of the same vibrational frequency that we are expressing in our field. To move the energy I have to remember to honor my needs and relax a bit of the judgment around what is happening in my life. In order to start an improving trend in the vibrational frequency I was carrying, I had to take action steps to find things that I felt good about. Small improvements began to show up and that made me feel better, which of course, attracted even more of the life that felt good to me.
Finally things began to change when I started to give myself some slack for those aspects of me that I did not like much. If I could not go immediately to loving them unconditionally, at least I could allow them to exist without trying to stamp them out. I could even grow into acceptance of the personality traits that made me uniquely me, especially the ones that were so incredibly different from other people that they have made me feel like an alien all my life.
These were important growth steps for me so I could recognize finally that there is a wholeness within me that balances all the many aspects of my being. Those parts that were not my best would only improve when I stopped focusing my wrath at them, but instead accepted their presence as my humanity. As a spiritual being enjoying an earthly life, it became paramount that I flood those special areas with Divine Light and my blessings. When I would do that, the most curious thing occurred. I started to love them like they were a new puppy. I could accept all that flapping around with too much energy in the wrong places, and begin to look with more kindness at how hard I was trying to be good.
Even though we have been told it is wrong and selfish to focus on our happiness, our sense of self does seem to be a key in attracting more of what we want in our life. The happier I have become, the better my life is. My new attitudes allowed doors in my consciousness to open and more love flowed in. With this love, there was access to levels of wisdom that I had never experienced.
I have not reached the point where I feel aligned to the Source of loving wisdom and act from that place always. But at least I know that I am connected to God no matter how it feels. From that awareness, I can do what it takes to bring more love into myself and open the receptor channels so I feel this connection.
When I could be more loving and recognize that without kindness I cut myself off from my Divine connection that is the most important thing to me, it dramatically changed my interaction with the myriad aspects of my personality. I am very aware now that this nourishing attitude attracts to me more loving-kindness from people around me, and uplifts my energy frequencies so I can live in a more expansive and happy state of being.
No matter what is going on in my life, bringing in the Happy Endings I desire always begins with my inner state of loving myself, and for me that really is True Wisdom.

Drinking in the Essence of Balance
An Equinox Teleconference with
Shanta Gabriel and Kelly M. Beard
Thursday, March 20, 5:30 PDT (8:30 EDT)
A highly-charged spiritual quality of Balance will be available during this spring’s Equinox. Archangel Gabriel states that energy frequencies containing the essence of Balance will act as a living substance of nourishment for the human energy system.
During the meditation Shanta Gabriel will lead in her Equinox teleconference, a transmission of the pure Light of Balance will occur to bring this nourishing, living substance into the physical body where it will seed, at an atomic level, the frequencies necessary to maintain a balanced state through the next season of high activity.
In this meditation, Shanta will create a Gyroscopic Stabilizing Field that allows the core balance within you to be in a moving form, like the gyroscope that keeps things level on vessels at sea.
The stabilizing field of the Gyroscope will be transmitted as a Balancing force that moves through your Light body and assists you in being a stabilizing influence with the world around you.
Celebrate and be nourished with us!
Shanta will be joined by Shamanic Astrologer Kelly Beard of KarmicTools.com. Kelly will speak about the energy we will all be experiencing in the coming season, and will offer practical and empowered suggestions for how best to use these powerful frequencies for our benefit.
Join us March 20 for our Equinox Celebration to help ground the powerful frequencies of Balance that are being transmitted.
