From the Publisher
For a number of years I facilitated “A
Course in Miracles” discussion group.
For those not familier with the course, it
could be defined as a philosophy that helps
people learn how to live life through love
rather than fear. A diverse group attended
the weekly meetings.
One week the topic was related to a
section in the text about messengers of
God. I made the statement that Hitler was
an Angel – a messenger of God. His was
not an easy message. It was one to show
people how dark they can become.
This started a rather lively conversation to say the least. One member of the
group, a school teacher, told me several
years later that he almost walked out on the
group due to that contention about Hitler.
I guess a lot of people look at Angels as
divine beings and believe that their function is to protect us and keep us safe.
People commonly think their messages are all filled with bliss and joy.
But not all messages are happy ones.
Sometimes we get messages from people
that shake us up and strike a nerve or two.
But, perhaps that is just as necessary as a
message of how lovable, kind and generous we are or can be.
I would contend that whatever message we get is to bring us closer to God.
Or perhaps to find that we need not go
anywhere to get closer or to “find” God,
but to just go within.
I find it interesting that every major
religion talks about Angels as being something other than human. Maybe that’s true.
But my feeling is that we all are Angels –
here to serve each other. Sometimes that
service means you get the tough job. Just
like Hitler.
May we all find our own angelic presence in this life experience.

Drumming Cruise on the Detroit Princess
On June 12 in Cleveland, 175 drummers and dancers literally rocked the cruise ship Nautica Queen out in Lake Erie for the second annual “Drumming Cruise into the Heart of lady Erie”. Another mystical evening, as what looked to be threatening weather all
day suddenly opened up with clear skies and almost a full moon. With drumming lead by Alex Wedmedyk, Baba Jabal, Raven, Sue
Balaschak, plus Brian Henke performing a couple of acoustic guitar pieces, the energy was at a high that all were able to bathe
in and take home. The evening began and ended with a beautiful Water
Ceremony by Joy Wedmedyk.
With the success of the Cleveland Drumming Cruises, Rhythm on the
Water will next be sponsoring a cruise aboard the Detroit Princess down the
Detroit River on Sunday, August 7. The Detroit Cruise will feature The Tree

Cleveland MedMob
On Sunday, May 29th, 2011, 47 different cities from around the globe took
part in what is fast becoming a new
craze — with locations in England, Italy,
Finland, Germany, Poland, Lebanon,
Australia, Mexico, Canada and all
around the United States, including
Hawaii, dozens descended upon a
predetermined location and gathered; to
simply meditate.
Coined MedMob, based on the Flash
Mobs that have formed around the
world, has now flourished into a wave
of energy, connecting anyone and
everyone to the power of meditation.
The MedMob movement is designed
to create an environment for people
from all walks of life to come together
in meditation. The hope is to expose others through public displays of the
practice, to come together as a community to send positive intentions out
into the world and to show this by example. All participants are equal, in that
there is no leader or “official” host, all ages are welcome and there is nothing
being sold.
Cleveland, Ohio has organized an extension of the MedMob and had their
first participants on the Shores of Lake Erie on Sunday, May 29. Edgewater
Park, near Downtown Cleveland, was the setting. The group will continue to
meet on the LAST Sunday of every month in the same location at noon.
To keep informed, visit MedMob: Cleveland, OH on Facebook or

“We are like children, who stand in need of masters to enlighten us and direct us; and God has
provided for this, by appointing his angels to be
our teachers and guides.” -Saint Thomas Aquinas
“To love for the sake of
being loved is human,
but to love for the sake
of loving is angelic.”

Angels are generally most closely
associated with Christianity, despite
their origins in much earlier belief
systems and cultures. Nevertheless,
the angel has been important to the
Christian faith since its conception,
and there are almost 300 references
to angels in the Bible in some 280
different verses, making it very much
a feature of the religion. While the
exact nature and status of the angel
in Christianity is far from settled, it
is appreciated as a critical part of
the Bible and the Christian faith.
Likewise, angels are present in most
other religions and play a part in
somewhat more diverse faiths and
individual beliefs.
Angels in
The Bible
The concept of guardian angels, or angels sent down from
heaven to look over the individual and prevent harm, is one
that can be found throughout
the Bible, particularly in the Old
Testament - “See that you do
not look down on one of these
little ones. For I tell you that
their angels in heaven always
see the face of my father in
heaven” (Matthew 18:10). There
are no specifics in the Bible
about the hierarchy of angels
or how they would function at
a practical level. Indeed, there
is an assumption (but no real
definition) that they would act
with a particular individual, and
would be assigned the ‘mission’
of protecting that person from
sin and deviance.
the
Journey
The Front Porch
Angels and Judaism
The Jewish belief in angels goes as far back
as the Book of Genesis, where we read about
angels calling out to Abraham at the binding
of Isaac, angels appearing in Jacob’s dream,
Jacob fighting with an angel, and many more
accounts of angelic activity. Angels are then
mentioned numerous times throughout the
other books of the Torah, Prophets, and Scriptures.
According to Jewish tradition, an angel is a spiritual being and does
not have any physical characteristics. The angelic descriptions provided by the prophets – such as wings, arms etc. – are anthropomorphic, referring to their spiritual abilities and tasks.
“Every blade of grass has an angel that bends over it
and whispers, ‘grow! grow!’”
~ Talmud
Angels and
Hinduism and
Buddhism
In Hinduism and Buddhism, angels
are known as ‘devas’ and thought to
be spiritual beings with emanations
of light/energy. The Hindu’s belief
of devas, is that their purpose is to
help humans on their spiritual path
and sometimes even block that path.
Buddhists view the devas as beings
who will not intervene with human
life.
The angels are thoughts
of love sent from God.
Since God is continuously
expressing loving thoughts,
there are an infinite number of angels. They are very
real messengers, sent by
God, to help us feel peace
and joy.” ~ Doreen Virtue

Cleveland Pagan Pride Day
August 27, 2011
Awaken the Change
Cleveland Pagan Pride Day 2010 was a fantastic
experience featuring local musical and dance talent.
We welcomed between 500-700 people, all who
came to sate their curiosity about Paganism. There
were workshops and vendors catering to the many
branches of the old way, an opening ritual which
ended with the sound of a Native American flute. A
closing ritualistic parade saw upwards of 100 people
joining in.
Cleveland Pagan Pride Day 2011 is much anticipated within the esoteric communities. A follow up
to CPPD 2010 has been much talked about through
the wintry months. This year’s fundraising events
have received overwhelming support from our
growing community. We have seen a concert event
at Maple Grove Tavern, Pagan Nights Out at Cici’s
Pizza and Applebee’s, a psychic fair at Spirit Apothecary, and a Pagan BBQ at Prince of Patchouli.
CPPD 2011 will see more top tier entertainment,
workshops and eclectic rituals throughout the day.
We will have the area’s finest vendors, psychics,
and food. We offer tee-shirts and bumper stickers
for sale, at all of our events, so all of our friends may
display them with pride!
All of our many friends that have supported us, we
offer a special THANK YOU!
Cleveland Pagan Pride 2011 is your festival event!

“I died as a mineral and became a plant;
I died as a plant and rose to animal;
I died as animal and I was a man.
Why should I fear? When was I less by dying?
Yet once more I shall die as man to soar
With angels blest. But even from an angel
I must pass on: all except God must perish.
When I have sacrificed my angel soul,
I shall become what no mind ever conceived.”
~ Rumi
Angels and Islam
Believing in the unseen world of angels is an important
part of Islam it is the second pillar of belief, after believing in Allah (God).
The angels are being that we cannot see but we know
them as much as Allah told us in His book (the Qur’an),
or His Messenger Muhammad (peace be upon him)
informed us.
Allah created the angels from light as stated by Prophet
Muhammad (peace be upon him): “The angels were
created from light, the Jinn (demons) were created from
dark flames of fire…”
Angels are completely obedient to Allah and worship
Him alone and Muslims do not worship angels since
they among Allah’s creatures and also have no power to
do either good or harm, except by the Will of Allah.
Even though angels were created before humans they
had been ordered to prostrate to Adam. Allah says: “And
when we said to the angels prostrate to Adam and they
did…” (Qur’an 18:50)
Muslims believe in specific angels mentioned
in the Islamic sources
like Jibreel (Gabriel),
Mika’eel (Michael),
Israfeel, Malik - the
guard over Hell, and
others. Of these, only
Gabriel and Michael
are mentioned in the Bible.
No one knows the number of angels. Allah says:
“No one knows the number of your Lord’s soldiers except Him” (Qur’an 74:31)
Some angels are put in charge of executing God’s laws
in the physical world. Michael is responsible for rain and
directing it wherever Allah (God) wishes. He has helpers
who assist him by the command of his Lord (Allah); they
direct the winds and clouds as God wills. Another angel
is Israfeel who is responsible for blowing the Horn at the
onset of the Day of Judgment. The Angel of Death and
his assistants are responsible for taking souls out of the
bodies at the time of death.

The Front Porch
An Angel Story by Osho
There once lived a saint so good
that the angels came from heaven
to see how a man could be so
godly. This saint went about his
daily life diffusing virtue as the stars
diffuse light and the flowers scent,
without being aware of it. His day
could be summed up by two words
-- he gave, he forgave -- yet these
words never passed his lips. They
were expressed in his ready smile,
his kindness, forbearance, and charity.
The angels said to God, “Lord, grant him the gift of miracles.”
God replied, “Ask what it is that he wishes.”
They said to the saint, “Would you like the touch of your
hands to heal the sick?”
“No,” answered the saint. “I would rather God do that.”
“Would you like to convert guilty souls and bring back wandering hearts to the right path?”
“No, that is the angels’ mission. It is not for me to convert.”
“Would you like to become a model of patience, attracting
men by the luster of your virtues, and thus glorifying God?”
“No,” replied the saint. “If men should be attracted to me,
they would become estranged from God.” “What is it that
you desire, then?” asked the angels.
“What can I wish for?” asked the saint smiling. “That God
gives me his grace; with that would I not have everything?”
The angels said, “You must ask for a miracle, or one will be
forced upon you.” “Very well,” said the saint. “That I may do
a great deal of good without ever knowing it.”
The angels were perplexed. They took counsel and resolved
upon the following plan: every time the saint’s shadow fell
behind him or to either side, so that he could not see it, it
would have the power to cure disease, soothe pain, and
comfort sorrow.
When the saint walked along, his shadow, thrown on the
ground on either side or behind him, made arid paths
green, caused withered plants to bloom, gave clear water
to dried-up brooks, fresh color to pale children, and joy to
unhappy men and women.
The saint simply went about his daily life diffusing virtue as
the stars diffuse light and the flowers scent, without being
aware of it. The people, respecting his humility, followed
him silently, never speaking to him about his miracles.
Soon they even forgot his name, and called him “The Holy
Shadow.”
This is the ultimate: one has to become the holy shadow,
just a shadow of God. This is the greatest revolution that
can happen to a human being: the transfer of the center.
You are no longer your own center; God becomes your
center. You live like his shadow. You are not powerful, because you don’t have any center to be powerful.
You are not virtuous; you don’t have any center to be virtuous. You are not even religious; you don’t have any center
to be religious. You are simply not, a tremendous emptiness, with no barriers and blocks, so the divine can flow
through you unhindered, uninterpreted, untouched -- so the
divine can flow through you as he is, not as you would like
him to be. He does not pass through your center -- there is
none. The center is lost.
This is the meaning of this story: that finally you have to
sacrifice your center so you cannot think in terms of the
ego again, you cannot utter “I,” to annihilate yourself utterly, to erase yourself utterly. Nothing belongs to you; on the
contrary, you belong to God. You become a holy shadow.

Coincidence?
Or a sign from
my angels?
“Y
our angels have a nickname for
you,” she told me, “they call
you ‘Morning Glory’.” It was
August 2009 and I was seeking
the counsel of a spiritual medium. My mother had died
three months earlier, and I was searching for ways to
communicate with her.
The nickname was strange, I thought, and didn’t have
any meaning for me. When I left the session I telephoned
Michael, a recently discovered soul mate. Michael is a
photographer and has his own studio building in an urban
location. I told him about the strange nickname.
I have chosen to label myself as
“spiritual but not religious.” The
label is nebulous enough that I can
define it (and redefine it) however
I choose. That’s what faith means
to me: a personal belief system developed through a lifetime of experience. It is not something anyone
can prove or disprove. That’s what
makes it faith.
“Wow,” he said, “You’re not going to believe this, but
just last week a huge bunch of Morning Glories took root
in my sidewalk and they’re growing all over the front of
my studio. I don’t know where they came from, they’ve
never been there before.” That was one of many “coincidences” that have occurred since my mother died, that
have made me firmly believe in angels.
I was raised in a Catholic household, but as an adult
I have chosen not to follow any faith. I have chosen instead to label myself as “spiritual but not religious.” The
label is nebulous enough that I can define it (and redefine
it) however I choose. That’s what faith means to me: a
personal belief system developed through a lifetime of
experience. It is not something anyone can prove or
disprove. That’s what makes it faith.
But even though I had been calling myself “spiritual”
I’d never had any direct connection with the spirit world.
That is, until my mother died and the coincidences
began. But the coincidences have been so personally
meaningful, and so statistically impossible, that I have
chosen to see them as direct signs from my angels. My
Page 12
By Judith Eugene
wonderfully nebulous belief system lets me do that with
great peace of mind.
Connecting with Michael was the first of these coincidences. Michael’s brother happened to die on the same
day as my mother. I had been living out-of-state but
happened to be back in my hometown for my mother’s
funeral. I happened to go to a certain restaurant, I happened to pick up a local newspaper there, and I happened
to see an article about the passing of Michael’s brother.
I had known Michael in high school, so I called him to
offer my condolences. We met for dinner and figured out
then that we were soul mates.
Of course there was no way to prove it, we just felt
it. As Elton Trueblood said, “Faith is not belief without
proof, but trust without reservation.” We trusted without
reservation. Perhaps one of the reasons my mother and
his brother died at their particular moment was so we
could meet and experience the bounty of life in a way
that only soul mates can. No coincidence. A sign.
My mother told me, through the spiritual medium,
that she would send me butterflies and dragonflies as
signs to let me know she is still near. That night, I was
looking through my mother’s books in her apartment
and found her journal. It had butterflies and dragonflies

Journey
on the cover. Coincidence? No, a sign.
Michael came over the next morning and I showed
him my journal discovery. We opened it together, and
there were four hearts doodled on the first page. Michael
ran into the next room and came back with a piece of
paper on which he had just doodled the same four hearts, in
the exact same style and pattern, minutes before.
“What does it mean?” I asked.
Four-one: The security code to get
into my mother’s apartment; the
latitude of my hometown – the city
my mother loved so much and the
place where I met my soul mate.
The number 41 continues to appear in my life regularly. Coincidence? No. A sign.
“Four hearts – you, me, your Mom and my brother,”
Michael said. Then he added, “From four hearts – one.” We
cried.
Four-one: The security code to get into my mother’s
apartment; the latitude of my hometown – the city my mother
loved so much and the place where I met my soul mate. The
number 41 continues to appear in my life regularly. Coincidence? No. A sign.
the
Journey
Two months later, Michael’s brother – whom I had
never met in life – came to me in a dream with a message
to pass along to Michael. Somehow I just knew it was him.
I trusted without reservation. The dream took place in an
unusually large picnic shelter that I had never seen before.
But when I told Michael, he said: “I know exactly the place
you’re talking about.” He emailed me a picture of a picnic
shelter where he and his brother regularly went when they
were little. It was, of course, the same one as in my dream.
Coincidence? No. A sign.
When I met with the spiritual medium I asked how to
communicate with those who have passed on. She said to
simply ask them for a sign. For a whole year I had been
receiving signs –without asking. But now I needed help. I
was considering leaving my job to move back home to start
my own business. I thought it was the right decision but I
wanted reassurance. I asked for a sign. The following morning, though I was alone in the house, I woke up to the smell
of blueberry muffins baking. The day before, I had just been
talking to a friend about how much I love blueberry muffins.
Later that day I received a layoff notice from work, which
alleviated my uncertainty about leaving. On the way home
from work, a car pulled up next to me; my mother’s name
was written on the side. And in case I still didn’t get it, when
I stopped at the grocery store on the way home, there was
a book on display in the checkout line: The Complete Idiot’s
Guide To Connecting With Your Angels. I laughed out loud
and bought the book. Coincidences? No, signs.

is to Connect

Doreen Virtue
Exclusive Interview
Doreen is Appearing at the 2011
Journey Expo Cleveland
By Eva Starr
A
ngel Medium Doreen Virtue is a spiritual doctor of
psychology and a fourth-generation metaphysician
who works with the angelic, elemental and ascendedmaster realms in her writings and workshops. With a
worldwide reputation, she has written more than 20
books about angels, chakras, Crystal Children, Indigo
Children, health and diet, and other mind-body-spirit issues.
Doreen, who holds B.A., M.A., and Ph.D. degrees in counseling psychology, was the founder and former director
of WomanKind Psychiatric Hospital at Cumberland Hall
Hospital in Nashville, Tennessee. As a child, she was a
natural clairvoyant, seeing and conversing with what many
people call “invisible friends” – an ability that she only came
to understand and embrace as an adult.
She will make a headline appearance at the ninth annual
Journey Expo Cleveland, Sept. 9-11. It will be her first appearance in the area in more than a decade.
Starr: In one of your videos you offered a quote by
Sheldon Kopp that resonated with me: “I’ve never begun
any important venture for which I felt adequately prepared.” I feel that’s something we all struggle with.
Virtue: Absolutely, right now is a time when many
people feel called to make important life changes, involvPage 14
ing career, where they live, their relationships, how they
treat their bodies – and it’s all about aligning yourself with
your truth and integrity and no longer compromising.
I think deep down everyone knows what path would
be highest for them, but a lot of people struggle with their
ego and unworthiness, procrastination, perfectionism and
things like that. It’s all very normal but the key is, Do you
let it control you or not? Truly living according to your
higher self is the key to health and happiness. Not only
[for] ourselves but [also] part of the ego’s responsibility
to the world. Imagine a world where everyone is aligned,
peaceful, healthy and happy – it just takes the burden off
of all of us, and really does create peace on earth.
Starr: Can you talk more about not compromising
when it comes to finding your life purpose?
Virtue: It’s the number one question I receive; I will
be definitely talking about this when I’m in Cleveland and
taking questions.
Deep down we all have the same purpose, which is
love: Remembering love, teaching love and modeling
love. But there’s a form that teaching and loving takes
and for many people it’s a career. A lot of folks talk to
me about really desiring a meaningful career, in which
their needs are supported. They dream of this, but there’s
a part of them that’s reluctant to leave a safe job. They
have security, but they’re not happy.
That’s really a life lesson for all of us – to make that
leap of faith. I was fortunate because I watched my father
do it. When I was about 6-years-old he left his aerospace
job … and pursued his dream, which was model airplanes.
We had just bought a house, had a mortgage, my mom
didn’t work, he had two little kids and he took that leap.
He’s going to be 80 this year, he’s barely got gray hair,

the
Journey
In each life we have a personal lesson
or two that we’re learning, like patience
or forgiveness. And we also have a
global mission that we’re here to learn
and express. Our angels help to keep
us on that path.
he’s healthy as a horse and happy.
Growing up with that, I learned life’s
too short to compromise on anything
… including relationships, where you
live and where you work. It’s about
trusting this benevolent universe…
Starr: The pact that we have with
our angels, do we make this before
we come into this earth plane? Are
we aware of it? What is this pact?
Virtue: I’m a firm believer in past
lives, and [that] this is a big continuum in learning – a progression, just
like different grades in school, each
life building upon the one before it.
The life lessons and the angels are
with you through all those lives; they
don’t have any mortality.
They’re like teaching assistants,
[saying], “In this life here’s what we’re
going to learn.”
In each life we have a personal
lesson or two that we’re learning, like
patience or forgiveness. And we also
have a global mission that we’re here
to learn and express, and that would
be something like you being a writer,
or someone working with animals.
Our angels help to keep us on
that path.
If you’re unhappy, it’s the same
thing as if you’re driving down the
road and you go over those little
bumps in the road that tell you,
“Oops you’re off the path.” Anyone
who’s unhappy with their job or
where they live, or anything – those
the
Journey
things need to be addressed instead
of stuffed down with chemicals, dysfunctional behaviors or addictions.
Starr: You’ve written that when
we talk to our angels the verbiage
isn’t important. I think that you’re
right when you say people get caught
up in what to say and what ritual to
use in saying it.
Virtue: Exactly. The angels respond to our simply giving them
permission and asking for their help,
because we have this free will. The
whole world was created for this desire for free will. It’s just an illusion
that we’re separate from God, but
the illusion is very real. You have to
ask your angels for help; you have
to ask God for help before they can
intervene because of their respect for
free will. It doesn’t matter how you
ask, what matters is that you’re very
clear about what you desire.
Think of it like they can feel your
thoughts. So you can say it, you can
scream it – in fact sometimes that’s
the most effective way. When you’re
crystal clear about what you will or
will not accept you can use any words
you want. The thing is just asking and
then accepting the help that comes
always in response to the prayer.
The help can be in the form of
direct intervention, where you ask
for a new job and boom here comes
a phone call from a friend and “we’re
hiring at my place of employment.”
July • August 2011
It can be something more along the
lines of signs that you get, [like]
when three people recommend the
same book or movie in the same
day. Always the help is offered; it’s
up to us to notice it. Where I find that
people run into trouble is that they
don’t trust, and also they don’t think
they deserve it. That’s a big part of
my job is to help folks get over those
little hurdles.
Starr: So self-esteem is a key
for all of us?
Virtue: Exactly, well put.
Starr: Back to the signs, I see
that your oldest son Charles and you
wrote a book Signs from Above, I’m a
huge sign person, I get feathers a lot
and always pick them up, and I think
that’s a sign. I get asked a lot “How
do I know my angels are listening?”
Virtue: If you see, hear or feel
anything unusual or repetitive, this
is a sign. The angels told me once,
and I believe them, “that everything

is a sign, because everything is a mirror that is attracted
to our current thoughts.”
There are no coincidences, quantum physics points
that out. It’s not something esoteric at all, it’s being magnetically attracted to us. If you want to know how your
thoughts are, just look around you and if you don’t like
it, then change your thoughts.
The signs are really fun. I especially love the number
signs where the angels send us numbers in sequences
that give us messages. The book I wrote, Angel Numbers
101, talks about that. When you see repetitive numbers,
or license plate numbers, it’s telling you something.
Starr: When I’m working with your angel cards in the
mornings during meditation, I sometimes draw the Indigo
Children card and the Crystal Children card. What’s the
difference between the two?
You have to ask your angels for
help; you have to ask God for help
before they can intervene because
of their respect for free will. It
doesn’t matter how you ask, what
matters is that you’re very clear
about what you desire.
Virtue: Oh, big difference. Indigos are a little older but
the main difference is the whole personality. The Indigos
came in with an inner truth detector, so they can smell if
someone has integrity or not. In school they don’t necessarily give respect to the principal or the person with the
title; they might have more respect for the janitor. They
also know the difference in school between what they
need to learn because it will help them someday in the
future, and what has no value to them. They’re strongwilled, old souls that have this strong-willed leadership.
Their big global mission is to bring integrity back to the
world.
The Crystal children are very quiet, in contrast. They
absolutely are nature fanatics; they have to be outdoors
or they get cranky. They don’t sleep much because they
might miss something. They’re delightful, they talk more
with their eyes and they love music. They’re very artistic,
love animals, they are absolutely fearless and they are
just happy, happy people.
The way this is working is like an evolution. You and I
are of the generation of light workers; we absolutely care
about this world but we run into self-esteem issues. The
Indigo generation doesn’t have those self-esteem issues.
They trust their intuition, but they don’t really know what
to do with it and they’re looking to our generation to
show them how to put it to action. So we’re here to be
teachers to the Indigos, and the Indigos usually are the
parents of the Crystals.
If the Indigos do their job and help to get rid of the
Page 16
July • August 2011
the
Journey
corruptions of this world to bring an era of integrity, emotions, and compassion then the Crystals will populate
this planet with this beautiful generation of quiet, gentle,
forgiving people who are connected to nature. It’s very
beautiful. It all fits together perfectly and it’s just a matter of allowing.
Starr: I have a question on free will. I know we have
free will and this question comes as a mother with a
daughter who suffered several years with addictions. We
want to help our children but how do we do this?
Virtue: OK, that’s one of my favorite questions to answer. Think of your free will as a circle and everything in
that circle is yours; you have the right to do whatever you
want in that circle even though the angels and God might
wish that you would choose differently. Your daughter has
that circle too; she can do whatever it is she chooses to
do. There is a point where the two circles overlap each
other, and then your daughter’s free will is affecting your
free will and happiness, to the degree that her free-will
choices affect your free-will choices. When this occurs
you are allowed to pray for intervention and the angels
and God will intervene. In fact the clearer you are about
your desire the greater the intervention on their part.
If you see, hear, or feel anything
unusual or repetitive, this is a
sign. The angels told me once,
and I believe them, “that everything is a sign, because everything is a mirror that is attracted to our current thoughts.”
Starr: My youngest daughter lost her Dad recently
through sudden death, and she’s having a hard time connecting to the Angels, to him and just in general. What do
you say to someone who says, “The angels aren’t listening,” or “I can’t talk to them?”
Virtue: My research shows that absolutely everyone
does talk to his or her angels, it’s just a matter of whether
it’s a conscious awareness or not. Right now I’m connected
to your daughter’s Angels and they’re telling me her Dad
does talk to her when she’s sleeping, and intuitively. Part
of the trying too hard thing is just blocking the conscious
awareness of it, but anytime anyone asks to talk to a loved
one, or to angels, contact is made successfully.
Starr: I’d like to speak about the Mayan calendar. In
one video, you said it’s more a matter of the Mayans just
didn’t finish the calendar [because] they had to leave the
village.
Virtue: Prophesies about the end of the world have
been going on since the beginning of time. The human
ego feels guilty running away from God. The human ego
is built on guilt and expects punishment, and because it’s
the
Journey
impossible to leave God, there is no punishment that is
going to happen.
The whole thing about 2012 is just a theory that a
man came up with who actually passed a couple of years
ago; it’s just an urban legend. This whole thing about the
end of the world is just the human ego enjoying being
afraid. The May 21st doom-and-gloom prophesy was
actually a blessing in disguise; it showed people and it
gave them a chance to make fun, ridicule and laugh.
There is no basis to the 2012 calendar. It’s just going
to be another year, but it’s giving people the opportunity
to face their fears and their mortalities, and I think that’s
really healthy. Ask yourself, Hey what do I want to do in
this lifetime?... and then do it now!
Do what it is you want to do even if it’s a big goal like
write a book or open a healing center. If you devote a
little bit of time to your goals every single day, it will get
done. The universe matches us to an even higher degree
and things just start to take care of themselves.
Starr: Aside from your book The Miracles of Archangel Michael, a favorite angel of many, I’ve heard you
refer to Jophiel as the Feng Shui Angel, and Gabriel the
Messenger Angel. Could you shed some light on those
angels?
Virtue: Gabriel is a good angel to work with if you feel
you have to get a message out, write a book or teach. And
Jophiel helps us beautify our lives. Jophiel is a beautiful
angel to work with right now. The angels told me we are
in a time of dynamic manifestation, that we absolutely
must think positive thoughts for our mental, emotional
and physical health and Jophiel will help us to uplift our
thoughts no matter what’s going on around us. We’ve
got to avoid blaming and complaining; it traps the lower
vibration energies. We can partner with Jophiel who can
help us come up with the beautiful words that uplift others. This is our mission as light workers.
Starr: Once we ask the angels to help us with a situation, can we also ask them to help us let go? It seems
many of us have a problem with surrender?
Virtue: Exactly, it’s like people who clean their homes
before the housekeeper gets there. You don’t have to perfect yourself before you ask the angels for help. If there
are certain issues you wrestle with, then by all means
July • August 2011

ask them to help you with those particular issues. If you
have problems with faith, then ask them to help you have
more faith, and they will do so.
Starr: You haven’t been to Cleveland for over a decade, talk to me about how you feel about coming to
Cleveland and doing the seminar for The Journey Expo.

& Soul Expo on pages 22 & 23

Virtue: I’m very excited about coming to Cleveland;
I have fond memories of Cleveland. I used to go there all
the time to do a TV show called AM Cleveland, and what
stands out the most to me about Cleveland is nice people.
I feel that a big part of our mission is just to be nice to
each other and I like being around nice folks.
I also feel the people in the Cleveland area have a
high degree of sensitivity. A large part of my workshop
at the event will be on how to deal with your increasing
sensitivity and how highly sensitive people can continue
to mange to keep their heart open, while shielding and
protecting yourself at the same time.
So I’ll be doing a lot of clearing work, and definitely I
will be doing as many readings as I can for the audience
– and just offering up whatever I can to help people deal
with living happier lives.
This big tour that I’m on is about the fears people
have over 2012 and the increasing sensitivity. I’m doing
whatever I can to help people understand that they’re not
alone, and that help is available to them.
Starr: I’ve heard you say that fear is a choice. So
when we’re in fear mode we’re choosing fear mode. So
how do we recognize that we actually made a conscious
choice of choosing fear and how do we get out of that
fear mode?
Virtue: A lot of it is having a zero tolerance of pain
policy with yourself. If you’re in any form of pain, you’re
in your ego. It’s not whether you go in your ego, it’s what
you do with it. But if you just start to have this firm “I
won’t accept … any form of pain – existential, spiritual,
emotional, etc.” policy, the minute you start to feel any
sort of pain, ask the angels for help.

Any kind of worry that we have
makes things worse because it puts
out to the universe this is what’s
happening, and it hardens it and the
universe says, Yes, ma’am, this is
what’s happening to you. Instead
take any worry you have and rewrite
it simply to a prayer. If you’re worried
about your finances, change it to a
prayer of Help me with my finances.
Worry makes things worse and prayer
always improves everything.
Starr: What one final thing do
you want to leave our readers with?
What’s the Big Kahuna the angels
most want us to know?
Virtue: Even if you’re not sure
that the angels are real and you don’t
really believe or you feel undeserving of their help, the angels are with
you. If you just take a moment to ask
for their help you’ll feel their loving
presence.
I want to reassure everyone,
speaking as a lifelong clairvoyant,
that you’re not alone and they are
there for each and every one of us.
You don’t have to earn it, you don’t
have to belong to any certain religion,
or act a certain way, or pray a certain
way to garner their help. Their help is
there because angels are as much a
part of life as having a heart, a lung
and just being alive.
It’s a part of our God-given capabilities, so please, please reach
out for help much more often than
you are. Angels want to help us with
every single part of our lives – not
just the so-called big things. They’re
here to help us have peace on earth,
one person at a time, and the greatest contribution you can make to this
planet right now is to be at peace. You
don’t have to do it alone; you’ve got
angels with you to help restore you to
peace, which is your natural state.

How to
Serve
Angels
A
By Carolyn Elliott
ngels, as I understand them,
are vast creatures of enormous power. They’re closedsystems — they can always
re-gather and re-assemble themselves after the shudders of any
emotional rapture. They can stay
in full possession of their beauty.
They’re already in their eternal aspect so they never dissolve. This is
a trait we humans don’t have in our
earthly existence. We’re always falling apart, dissipating, dying.
Yet in the cosmic scheme of
things, angels are actually disadvantaged because they don’t share
our quality of disappearing-ness,
our mortality and evanescence.
They’re always at one with beauty,
so they don’t perceive it from the
outside as we humans do, and they
can’t erotically interact with it. Eros
and thanatos (death) are intimately
intertwined. Without thanatos there
can be no eros, because in order
for eros to arise there must be
some sense of separation, of duality. Angels are beings who enjoy
uninterrupted life and oneness and
thus cannot enjoy the erotic play of
duality that comes with the possibility of death as we humans can.
So we mortals suffer, but we also
have a privilege unknown to higher
spiritual beings: We can sense the
world and ourselves as fleeting and
therefore feel attraction and erotic
love. Since all that we are and all
that we perceive disappears, we
must be like bees – willing to collect
the nectar of life with our senses and
bring it into our hearts where we can
the
Journey
turn it into the honey of higher consciousness. In this sense, the point of
our human life is to take all that we
see –gorgeous and hideous, pleasing
and revolting – and to love it until
we have transformed the world and
ourselves. We could say that this is a
poetic point of view, an attitude that
embraces all the extremes of life with
equal welcome and grace.
This process of turning the stuff
of life into honey is hardly passive; it
involves active gathering of life and
active expression of the love we have
cultivated. In other words, our duty is
not only to love the world but to communicate that love to others in a way
that succinctly teaches them to love
as we have loved. As we do this labor,
we perform a service for the angels
a service that they require because
without it they would be unable to
imagine the intensity that comes
from living willingly in the shadow
of death. We show them the painful
beauty of earthly life in a way that
they would never be able to perceive
without our intervening.
Our English word
“poem” comes from
the Greek word
poeïsis, which means
“to make.” For the
Greeks, the emergence of a blossom
from a bough was
poeïsis, and so was
the making of a wheel
for a cart.
So how do we accomplish this labor of service to angels? Of teaching
divinity the wonders of duality? We
do this by making our every action
and word a poem, a gift, an offering.
Our English word “poem” comes

sis and the second kind of making
techn (from here we get our word
“technology”).
We ordinarily consider the
poeïsis of nature, physis, to be different from the poeïsis of human
technology. But it’s actually possible
for humans to create in such a way
that we use our skills and technologies to enact a spiritual blossoming,
a spiritual physis. In other words,
the things we create in the material world – our written verses, our
paintings, our emails, our dinners
and parties – can all be “makings”
or “poems” in the highest sense
when we perform them with great
consciousness and love. Through
our loving awareness, we bring to the
simplest of our creations a celebration that serves angels. We perform
this service by transmuting the
stuff of our daily life into songs that
empower angels to love the fleeting
people and things of this world with
a strength and fearlessness to rival
our own.

The Practicality
Of Angels
I
By Corbie Mitleid
I never considered myself an
angel person when I started
on the lightworker’s path.
Frankly, I didn’t want to be. I
valued practical. I gravitated
more toward numerology, with its
formulae and rules; I dove into Tarot
cards, whose archetypal information
I found to be something concrete.
Even in the beginning, when I
was putting my hands on anything
that looked at all metaphysical, I’d
find too many angel books came
across as fluffy, or specious, or
both.
But it’s a rare person who sets
themselves on the Light Road who
doesn’t run into angels sooner or later. Angels are one of Spirit’s fastest
and most profound ways of dealing
with dangerous situations, Doubting Thomases or lost lambs in ways
that cannot be ignored. And I got to
have angel encounters for all three
of those sorts of adventures.
The first encounters happened
in 1994, when, suddenly and with
no training, I found myself able to
talk to dead people and do handson healing. I couldn’t explain why; I
just knew I was being “handed my
draft notice” and called to service.
So I bowed my head and used my
hands.
Every time I started doing my
work, someone – or something –
put hands gently over mine, and we
worked together. People would feel
presences they could not explain,
and get healings neither of us could
logically justify. And the presence
didn’t feel like a spirit guide – I had
those, knew those, and they simply
said, “The healings are larger than
we are. Trust that.”
So I tentatively, grudgingly, acPage 24
cepted the idea that somehow I’d
come to angelic notice. But I didn’t
want to get all “glurpy purple,” as
I said to my friends. I still wanted
to be solidly based. Besides, who
was I to expect angelic attention, or
even more, assistance? I was neither
saintly, nor particularly devout at that
point. They had better things to do,
I was sure.
By 1997, I was doing enough
work that I knew I needed to acknowledge allegiance to someone.
After a long and difficult road, it was
clear that the banner under which I
needed to walk was that of the Christ.
But there was fear. I didn’t like what
experience I’d had with organized
religion, didn’t believe most of what
standard Church doctrine told us and
kept fighting for the logic to win.
It didn’t.
What happened to me on Feb.
1, 1997 is private, and I’ve told only
a few. But believe me when I say
July • August 2011
that there were angelic presences
in my little apartment in Atlanta;
that the room’s temperature went
up fifteen degrees in five minutes;
that I felt myself held and moved,
and saw finger indentations on my
nightgown sleeve that had no visible fingers causing them. And that
night, I knew that the Christ has very
little to do with church doctrine, and
everything to do with that incandescent, immanent center of compassion, non-judgment and love at the
center of the universe.
Because her particular spirit guide
was in the room
with us as a witness, she asked
him to report to
her. And he gave
her the exact order
of everything that
happened from a
90-degree angle to
where I was.
After the visitation was over,
I called my close friend, who is a
priest in the Celtic Catholic church.
Could she could explain what happened without my telling her about
it? Because her particular spirit
guide was in the room with us as
a witness, she asked him to report
to her. And he gave her the exact
order of everything that happened
from a 90-degree angle to where I
was – which is where I had sensed
him at the beginning of the angelic
encounter.
You would think I wouldn’t need
any more convincing after that,
wouldn’t you? I suppose God gets
a great kick out of His most hardheaded kids, because that I certainly
was. OK, angels help me heal. OK,
they were part of the celestial welcoming committee. But all those
stories about telling people to take a
different road, saving them in boating accidents, all that – nah, not me.
the
Journey
I don’t matter enough for that.
In February 2002, I was on a rural road in upstate
New York. It had been warm, then cold, and rain had
changed to a light snow overnight. Suddenly, my tires hit
a patch of black ice under snow. My car swerved toward
a stand of trees. I wrenched the wheel – too hard – I spun
in the other direction, clipping a pine tree, knocking down
a telephone pole. I felt the car do a rollover, and found
myself hanging, upside down, with electrical wires over
the car.
I wasn’t even wearing a seat belt.

Looking back, I realize that angels had the wheel from
the first skid. They had to – because at no time did I fear
what was happening. It felt like slow motion, very clear. I

Psychic Boot Camp
If you’ve never consulted a psychic, or if you’ve only heard
the “horror stories”, or if you’ve seen one psychic after another and remain unsatisfied with the experience, Psychic
Boot Camp may be for you.
Most people haven’t a clue about what psychics can and
cannot do, how to choose a good one, or what do to with
the information once it’s received. With a lecture style that
combines significant information with Swami Beyondananda-style humor, internationally-acclaimed psychic medium
Rev. Corbie Mitleid presents seven keys to follow that will
put you in the driver’s seat of your psychic magic carpet.
Psychic Boot Camp will be the feature presentation of
Corbie Mitleid’s workshop at The Journey Expo Cleveland
2011. More information and ticketing is available at

had absolutely no fear of injury or death; it was as if I knew
that it wasn’t my time and I was being taken care of.
I eased myself out of the car. Within half an hour I had
flagged someone down, who called an ambulance. I was
immediately strapped to a backboard like I’d broken every
bone in my body, though I protested I was fine. I remember the EMT checking my pulse and blood pressure and
saying, “You’re the cool one; 120-over-80 and a slow and
regular pulse.”

How to Ask
For Help
From Angels
By Tina Sacchi
L
ife as we know it is changing swiftly. We are
right on course to clear out the old energies of
the past and bring in the new energies of divine
light to the entire world. These new energies
are focused beams of light, restoring every cell in our
beings.
They touch every spot on the planet, every creature,
every plant, every drop of water. We are being restored to
wholeness and oneness. We are one with all things and we
are interconnected, so we must change, as well as every
living being surrounding us, including Mother Earth.
During these times of unusual weather patterns –
earthquakes, storms, tornados, floods, tsunamis, and the
like – we are reminded that change sometimes is swift,
literally shaking things up, throwing things around, stirring
the old dense energies and re-patterning every foundation. We have been hearing and seeing these changes
everywhere: in the news, on the Internet, on the radio,
and even in the themes of the movies and TV. Change is
happening politically, culturally, economically, socially
and personally. There is no area left untouched by the
new energies that are coming to us.
Many people have transitioned; many have been
forced to relocate (foreclosures); others suffer illnesses
and injuries. These are all manifestations of a deep restructuring of the world and the “self” as we currently
know it. Intuitively, we know that these changes are
leading to peace and harmony, but how do we cope
with such monumental changes in the present moment?
How do we get through the hour, the day, the week, the
month, the year?
Page 30
This is where the angels come in. They surround us
at all times. There are legions of angels assigned just to
planet Earth, and also assigned to each individual on
Earth, to assist all living beings through all the transitions and changes.
During these times of unusual
weather patterns – earthquakes,
storms, tornados, floods, tsunamis,
and the like – we are reminded that
change sometimes is swift, literally
shaking things up, throwing things
around, stirring the old dense
energies and re-patterning every
foundation.
Yet they cannot interfere with free will, so they must
be called upon. You must ask for their help. Once you
July • August 2011
the
Journey
ask, they instantly arrive to assist. How do you know
they are there? Some people feel a rush of air or a chill;
others feel something light (like a feather) brush up on
their shoulder; others hear a voice, or a sweet song comes
to mind and sometimes animals will show up on their
behalf as reminders (such as butterflies, hummingbirds,
doves, or other flying birds). Angels are connected to the
“winged ones” since they have wings themselves. So it
is no surprise that butterflies and birds show up when
angels are called.
During times of emergency, sometimes angels will
intervene. This is especially true during near-miss accidents. Sometimes the angels know that an accident
would alter your path of destiny, so they will help to keep
you on your path. Many people have experienced angel
intervention, like walking away from a deadly accident
unharmed or experiencing a “near-miss.” And there have
even been accounts of people waking up, far removed
from a car accident untouched, almost as if lifted up by
angel emergency transport.
When you start to consciously and intentionally call
upon angels to help you in your daily life, you start to
experience the incredible power and the unconditional
love that they provide.
When you are having a hard time, you can ask for
10,000 angels to stand behind you – and they will. You
simply have to believe in order to invoke their help.
If you feel weak, you can ask them to lift you up. If
you feel overwhelmed, you can ask them to clear your
field of anything that no longer serves you. They can
be an integral part of your daily routine: If you “ask,
believe and allow,” their divine energy will touch you
and restore you.
In order to begin your work with angels, it is essential to first clear any doubts about self-worthiness. The
angels are so powerful and sometimes their light is so
intense that many people don’t feel deserving of such
help, and they subconsciously block any forms of angel

help or avoid calling for help at all.
Sometimes you have to “fake it to make it.” Even
though you might not fully believe you are worthy, continue with positive affirmations anyway until your energy
shifts to worthiness. You can say:
“I am a beautiful being of light and I am worthy of
the presence of angels in my life.”

The more you work with angels, the more comfortable you will feel with them. Calling upon the angels will
become a natural part of your life, and soon you’ll realize
that “living without them” is not even an option.
Many people have experienced angel intervention, like walking away
from a deadly accident unharmed
or experiencing a “near-miss.” And
there have even been accounts
of people waking up, far removed
from a car accident untouched, almost as if lifted up by angel emergency transport.
Start with this prayer for your sleep and call upon
them during dreamtime. (Many of my clients have used
it nightly and report outstanding results.)

I
The Angels
Around Us
By Paul Sherlock
have been on an intensive spiritual journey following the passing of my wife. New understandings
of who I am and how to better live my life come to
me daily. My motivation is to learn and to share.
Angels exist in abundance all ar ound us.
Angels are the guides in our lives that help us to straighten
out our path more easily than we would otherwise be able to
do on our own. We need not look very far to find them; they
come into our lives every day.
Angels are those who pre-decease us, those whom we
can sometimes lean on when this world gets to be too much,
because they now possess the wisdom of what comes after
this life. Their presence can be of great comfort because of
the perspective that they now offer – that the problems we
face today are but a moment in the sum of our existence.
Angels are also the people with whom we interact: our
friends and family, those who make themselves available
to us when they see us struggle and offer gentle support and help us to find our way through difficult times.
They are our teachers; those who have great
knowledge of the things we wish to learn; who help
us avoid the pitfalls they encountered along the way.
They are also the people with whom our interactions do
not always go so smoothly. They are those that force us to
look at the status quo and alter the course our lives have
taken: the boss who eventually forces us to re-evaluate a
career choice; or that intimate relationship that ends in a
breakup that challenges us to look deeper into ourselves.
These relationships, these angels, are a gift to us. They come
into our lives to help us along in our journey. They offer us a
perspective that we can’t see for ourselves because we become
too emotionally attached to struggles that cloud our judgment,
whereas they can observe our lives from a detached vantage
Page 34
point. We are utilizing the nature of relationships to their fullest capacity when we open ourselves to this understanding.
Like anything that is of value to us, these angels who enter
our lives require us to actively participate in addressing the
challenges that come our way, so that we may fully realize
the lessons those challenges bring.
Our angels want to help us, but we need to make ourselves open to that help. When we face these challenges
the best thing we can do is to be honest with ourselves as
to exactly why they present so much of a struggle – even
when that truth makes us uncomfortable.
The next thing for us to be willing to do is to share
that honesty with our angels so that they have all the information necessary to guide us. When working through
those difficult times, being open and vulnerable about
the challenging events in our lives serves us best. Our
honesty gives us and others the ability to see and address the core of our struggles – as opposed to dealing
with symptoms that are superficial and will always prove
to be elusive as far as providing any healing benefit.
When we see the people, our angels, that come into
our lives for what they truly are – an interactive force to
help us in our journey – and when we become proactive in
wanting to help ourselves, we make our walk of life easier.

we might envision for ourselves. We need something else to
lean on, to fully trust in to help guide us along the way.
Having a strong spiritual connection has been the true icing
on the cake.
Staying connected to God has taken my life to a whole
new level of peace and balance. We cannot rely just on our
own willpower and works to change, so I encourage everyone to lean on the transforming love of God to supply what
we don’t always get through the day.
Believe in your ability to change. You and God are the
only ones who know how to take care of you. Let us all live
a life full of purpose and passion and most of all peace. I
believe that if each of us developed into the person God
gifted us to be, the world would be a different place to live.

Soul Food
By Eva Starr
What we think about we bring about. The brain cannot
hold a positive and a negative thought at the same time;
it’s virtually impossible.
Soul Food is dedicated to all my readers as an offering to share my metaphysical musings and the lessons
I have encountered throughout my journey here in this
classroom we call Planet Earth. I encourage your questions and quandaries as we grow together toward solution
and enlightenment.
Dear Eva:
I have a daughter who I’m worried sick about. Months,
sometimes years, go by and I don’t hear from her. Word
through the grapevine is she’s fallen into the world of
drugs and I don’t know how to help her. No one knows
where she is, I’m afraid she may be homeless or worse…
dead. I can’t go on living like this. I don’t sleep at night
and every time the phone rings I think it may be the
dreaded call. –JC
white candle and hold her in the light. Imagine God and/
or her angels with a huge vase filled with white light and
they are pouring fountains and fountains of light over her.
When the time is right she will come out of the darkness,
and the light you’ve been holding for her all this time will
be there waiting. You will make it through this my dear,
divine timing is just that: Divine.
Dear Eva:
I’m torn between all this talk about goal setting and
Dear Sleepless:
Coming from a mother of two daughters, I know only
too well the fear of the dreaded phone call. Allow me to
share with you a quote from the prophet Kahil Gibran:
“Your children are not your children. They are the sons and
daughters of Life’s longing for itself. They come through
you but not from you, and though they are with you yet
they belong not to you.”
With that being said, worrying about your daughter
is only bringing more into your life to worry about. What
we think about we bring about. The brain cannot hold
a positive and a negative thought at the same time; it’s
virtually impossible. When fear and worry come into your
head, stop right where you are and think of a positive
memory you have of her. Bring that thought to your mind
each and every time a dark thought enters.
God gave us free will, and it is not up to us to interfere in another’s life. Our children have their own paths to
follow, and neither you nor I know what that is.
Something that works for me is writing a letter to their
highest angel. Express all your thoughts to her angel, and
ask her angel to watch over her and protect her. Light a

doing, and the flip side of just being and doing nothing.
One guru says this; another says that. It’s enough to drive
a sane person crazy. How do you know what to do and
what not to do? I feel like I’m on a merry-go-round and
it’s going nowhere. Any light you can shed on this subject
would be greatly appreciated. –SM
Dear This and That:
I feel your dilemma. As Shakespeare said: “To be, or
not to be: That is the question.” Especially in these times,
with all the spiritual gurus out there, knowing which way
to turn, who to listen to and what to do is a quandary
for plenty of us. A wise sage once told me, “Whatever
is meant to be yours will not pass you by.” For myself,
I try to remember those words when I’m faced with the
question: Should I or shouldn’t I?
I strive to look at it this way; I meditate, pray about
it, listen with my inner voice, and then go put feet on my
prayers. When I think back to the plethora of blessings
that have come into my life, the finest ones just came
to me; I didn’t go searching for them. This one thought
alone has helped me when my busy brain is going a
thousand miles a minute and I’m trying to plan my next
move toward my divine path.
Remember the cliché, if you want to make God laugh
tell him your plans, and if you want to make him laugh
even harder tell him your plans for your children. Take
all that information, sort through it like a sieve and keep
what works for you. You and only you are the final judge
the
Journey
on what works in your life, besides God.
So get off that merry-go-round, get out of that same
park you’ve been riding in, change your scenery, trust
your instincts and then let it come to you.

By Kimmie Rose Zapf
Aries
July – This is going to be a crazy month. You have a
tendency to get anxious so take a moment and breathe.
Balance is essential for you to move through the next
three months without getting run down. Ask those around
you to help.
August – Relationships might be trying during this
time. It’s important to keep the lines of communication
open. As you do this, you will find it easier to resolve
complications with others.
Taurus
July – Relationship issues have been bringing you
down. It’s time to go within and confront the issues you
need to confront. Deeper issues may even surface. Don’t
hold onto these things but rather see the truth in them.
Forgive, release and let go.
August – Your energy levels are up and down leaving you a bit unstable. Don’t worry. This is about taking
a deeper look at your eating habits and finding balance.
Meditation, prayer and time with friends will be greatly
beneficial.
Gemini
July – Money issues are a concern but you’ve got
some great planetary aspects around you. Don’t get
overwhelmed by new opportunities. Seek guidance from
within, follow your heart and good things will manifest in
the months ahead.
August – Job opportunities pop up this month as you
socialize more. You’ve been on a rough road and you’ve
been feeling left out. It’s important to ask for what you
want and you’ll find that people are there for you.
Cancer
July – Real estate is coming up and maybe you are
considering a purchase. Don’t get caught up in the excitement and rush into something. Carefully review all legal
documents. Take your time and discern.
August – Relationships may feel very distant this
month and communication is at a low point. It’s important
to think about the energy you’ve been sending out. With
a deeper awareness, there is greater understanding and
less hurt feelings.
Page 40
Leo
July – Travel is on the way for you and even possibly
a big move. Take some time and decide what you really
want. Put things in order and embrace the energy of the
universe with forward movement.
August – New friendships appear and old friendships
return. Pay attention to what people are telling you.
Difficulties in your life are there only because you give
them so much energy. These challenges are actually
opportunities to move forward.
Virgo
July – Things at home have been difficult, and you
may be feeling like you’ve had to hide your feelings.
Figure out what you really want: set an intention of
truth, clarity and forward movement and let things come
together.
August – Financial issues are coming to a head this
month. It’s not necessarily the choices you’ve made but
the choices of others. Your intentions are good but it’s
not always possible to take care of everyone around
you.
Libra
July – New job opportunities present themselves to
you. But are you paying attention? It’s time to take a
deeper look at your life. This includes relationships. Are
you in a relationship because it’s comfortable or because
it’s really what you want?
August – Things with relationships may get stirred up
a little as people who you haven’t seen in a while come
back into your life. As for family members, be careful not
to say something you will regret.
Scorpio
July – New job opportunities are on the horizon. Go
into your heart and ask yourself what feels right for you.
Then, just do it. Remember that the more you move
forward in your life the happier you will be.
August – People become more honest with their
feelings about you. This allows you to be more honest
about your feelings toward them. People really do want
to know what you have to say. Now is the time to come
forward and express yourself.

the
Journey
Sagittarius
July – Your energy levels are running high and low.
Consider doing some yoga or meditation. Even a good
walk in the park will help you clear your thoughts. This
will allow creative ideas to follow in so get your pen and
pad ready.
August – Family issues come to a head after someone has broken your trust. It’s important not to be on the
offensive. Let them come forward and work this out with
you. Financial concerns will ease as the month moves
forward.
Capricorn
July – Relationships are coming up but how are you
looking at them? Are you distorting what’s really going
on or are you seeing them as they really are? Don’t allow
your mind to create a reality that isn’t real. Stay grounded
and be aware.
August – Relationships issues have been huge over
the last few months. Learn how to honor yourself and not
just consider what others need. Don’t be afraid to speak
your mind and let others know what you need. It’s all
about balance.
Aquarius
July – Focus on taking care of your health. Slow
down and take a walk in the park or go camping. It’s
important to connect with nature right now. Remember,
everything isn’t about work. Work is good and balance
is more important.
August – Erratic energy may be hitting you right now
as you feel pulled in all directions. Write down the things
you want to accomplish. This will also help with setting
your priorities. Take it one day at a time; one thing at a
time.
Constantly Updated!

www.thejourneymag.com
Pisces
July – Love is in the air and you’re feeling invincible.
This isn’t just about romantic love, but love of life, love
of yourself, love for people and love for food. Indulgence
could be a challenge for you, but enjoy this time in your
life.
August – This month you’re expending a lot of energy
leaving you drained. To make maters worse, the money
isn’t flowing in the way you want it to either. Don’t worry.
It’s just a mater of time before things start to balance out
for you.

Eugene ...Continued from page 13
Communicating with my mother and Michael’s brother is
commonplace for me now. Whenever I am sad or frustrated
or scared, they send me signs to let me know everything is
going to be OK.
How do I know they are signs? Because of my personal
belief system, built through a lifetime of personal experience.
Just as we get to choose our own faith, each one of us gets to
decide what is meaningful to us, and ask our angels to send
us signs that are meaningful to us. Yesterday morning I was
thinking about the Morning Glories at Michael’s studio and
wishing I had some of the seeds to plant at my new house.
That afternoon Michael came to visit and brought me a present. Morning Glory seeds. Coincidence? No, sign.
Beautiful, wonderful, reassuring sign.
Sacchi...Continued from page 32
Angel Prayer for Dreamtime:
I call upon the Archangels and all angels of the Divine
Light – as many as would like to come tonight while I
am sleeping.
Spread your healing loving wings over me and
protect me, comfort me, guide me and shield me from
anything that no longer serves me for my highest good
and highest good of all.
Help me to wake up refreshed, peaceful, clear, serene
and in perfect harmony with all that is.
Thank you Angels for your divine presence in my
dreamtime and all times.

Ohio with her three awesome cats. She may be reached at
(216)408-5578 or [email protected].
Wake up each morning and journal your thoughts
and experiences. See how this prayer profoundly impacts
your morning and then the rest of your day.
Allow the angels to improve your sleep patterns, take
away your daily worries and provide you the comfort
and peace that you deserve. Let the angels help you
transform to the peaceful, loving, being that you are.
Mitleid...continued from page 25
I had a couple of small bruises on my shoulders. My
back was wrenched and I was in pain for a few days. But
for a woman in a flipped car with no seat belt? Nothing
short of miraculous. Especially when I saw my car at the
garage. It was smashed to bits everywhere but where I had
been sitting. It was as if there was a protective shell in that
one place.
Three gifts of spirit – when I was a Doubting Thomas,
a lost lamb, and now in a life-threatening situation. Inexplicable, loving hands had been there in every single
occurrence. How could I possibly doubt the presence of
angels any longer?
I couldn’t. And that day, I stopped trying.

and information on her international radio show.
It’s now almost a decade since that last encounter. My
intuitive work has blossomed into a full-time career. I read
for clients all over the world, and whether I’m channeling,
healing or doing intuitive counseling I’m still as practical
as I know how to be with them.
But I’m finding there is nothing more practical than an
angel when God wants to get a point across. And when I’m
in a stuck place, I hold out my hand and wait for that warm
touch and the rustle of a wing in my ear.
