Messages about Self Love

Self-Love - what does that mean to you?  Is that something that creates a good feeling? Does it perhaps create a sense of shyness or embarrassment?

My dear friends, we love you so very much. Self loves, dear ones, is not selfish. True self love comes from a heart that is grateful to God for making this beautiful soul you call "you." True self loves comes from an appreciation that you were created unique, beautiful, and precious. True self love is a recognition that there is no one else on earth exactly like you, just as there are never two roses exactly the same.

The Goddess took us first of all to the New Earth.  It's so similar to home, yet has a finer, lighter vibration.  The foundation of the energy is based in love.  Therefore, the more you allow love within yourself or to flow through you, the more you have to share with others.

There is a tendency to project the source of truth onto another. This often happens in our relationship with the teacher and it acts as a barrier to true awakening.

Well, it's the time of year when I usually share a few holiday self-care reminders to support you in taking good care of yourself over the next few weeks so you enter the New Year feeling good about yourself.

Our journey to love as a healing path takes many twists and turns as we look for love in a world that may often seem unloving, unable to give us love or return the love we willingly give.

We are expanding and accelerating. As the expansion is raises us up – our energetic vibration is accelerating; our frequency is vibrating more quickly.

Must My children think that something is the matter with them? In terms of life in the world, beloveds, you will never attain perfection, so let yourself be. Imperfect, you are perfect. Do you understand Me?

If you would believe in your own goodness and beauty, you would be so relieved. A great weight would be taken off you, do you agree? Yet you have held on to the idea ever since you remember that you are not quite worthy. You may see yourself as a sluggard or one who is almost invariably mistaken. I wonder what is the comfort in thinking less of yourself than I do.

You feel a breeze, gently you turn around. Suddenly time stands still. You see a human angel. A wonderful glow is surrounding her, her eyes goes right into you heart.
