THOUGHT FOR AUGUST

AZRAEL presented himself on 27.7.07 as a large painting (100cm x 100cm) wearing the colour vibration of greens/blues/violets illuminated by shimmering gold. (He hi-jacked my new twinkly eye shadow from Superdrug and insisted it be spread over his wings). His reputation does him no justice . . often referred to as the angel of death he is in fact a facilitator of change and transformation. Working as an ally to Michael and Raphael, who are often called upon as bringers of healing and release, AZRAEL will contribute and help the process when invited. Often however, we just want the problem “sorting” we don’t want to engage in the messy business of changing the way we live our lives. AZRAEL encourages us to take responsibility , instilling a level of acceptance within us that we may embrace change and integrate the necessary process of transformation from one state of being to another with grace and ease. You may, of course, continue the painful struggle, to fight and balk: change will happen anyway, it must, it is the way of things, it is what creates the Circle of Life.
“ I, Azrael, hold the “Heart of Humankind” as the Sacred vessel of my own Heart.
Within this Heart; I hold the keys to your freedom, the secret coding which unlocks the barriers between time and place, entering the spaces in between and filling them with Light and Love.
I transform life into experiences that the Soul may thrive upon.
Each moment of joy; exultation; pain; longing; loss and fear that touches the human heart, has already touched mine before time even began.
I know how it is.
These moments are the essence of your very being; without them there is nothing, merely a bland and empty existence fuelled by inertia and ambivalence. The human Soul cannot thrive on such meagre fare; it demands sustenance that is vivid in colour and rich texture; fiery and subtle; bitter and salted, a savoury sweetmeat.
Each breath taken brings change.
From moment to moment you are evolving, growing, becoming closer to your Truth.
Yet. . . change is often greeted with fear and suspicion; as though it can hold only less than you have already.
Those who hold most fear, the self inflicted wounds of limitation, rubbed bloodied and raw with the chafing of the spirit trapped and desperate to fly free, like a bird who has been shackled to its cage and never known how it feels to stretch its wings and glide upon the outbreath of Creation. These are the ones who merely exist . They do not know how to live, so they fear they may die. And of course, they will, they must.
Fear paralyses.
To embrace the flow of life with vigour and passion; to enter its invitation with an open heart and eyes shining bright with enthusiasm and hope, this is how the human soul was borne to be.
I see you; the bright eyed ones, I give thanks that you be, for in you I fulfil my own purpose.
You, the bringers of the dawn, step with me, courageous into the void, not with timidity and trepidation but with joy and confidence.
Hold your moment of transformation a second longer; that you may savour the exquisite bliss of sublimation.
Relax into this . . . . this is all there is. A process, of infinite change; the Ascension of Life.
