August Theme: Positive focus and creative solutions help to draw both prosperity and abundance this month.  You are a powerful creator and all that you need is within your grasp!

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our Light, not our Darkness, that most frightens us. – Marianne Williamson

827:  Today we continue our quest to release any fearful and negative thinking that may be keeping us from moving forward, creating the life we want or from embracing prosperity and abundance. Ground, clear and center as this will help the release process. Take a deep breath and affirm ” I welcome prosperity and abundance in all forms and they flow into my life with ease. I am worthy of and ready to receive all the good things the Universe has in store for me and to move forward with a sense of adventure.”  Call on the Universe for assistance and make use of the guidance that is offered. Remember that these things can come from anywhere and the key is to keep yourself open to new information and scenarios. Most importantly take the necessary steps and corresponding actions if you feel compelled to do so!

Archangel Michael helps to calm our fears and guides us through issues of self-doubt by clearing our energy field and quieting the internal chatter so that we can access the guidance being sent to us He helps us to find our courage and our direction while giving us the strength that we need to choose wisely and make decisions on our own. Michael’s energy is easily felt particularly during times of stress, confusion and helps us when we feel lost or overwhelmed. He sets us on the path of commitment to our purpose by showing us how to work through any obstacles that pop up. He teaches us that we have what it takes to create new things for ourselves as he helps us reach new levels of self-confidence. The Ascended Master El Morya can help if you have trouble staying present and focused in the now. He teaches us the importance of putting aside what we cannot control so that we are free to think about other things. He reminds us that it is our faith that keeps us grounded so that we can embrace both the patience and the clear decision making needed to make things happen. And the Hindu God Ganesh can help to remove obstacles from our path, both the ones we create for ourselves and those that simply pop up.  He promotes the wisdom needed to navigate what life hands us so that abundance can find us. Ganesh teaches us that our barriers are quite often self-imposed. He tells us “Never be afraid to move forward or to let go of what no longer serves you or brings you joy.” While doing this may seem difficult or even impossible your effort will produce beneficial cleansing and healing.”
