Swinging On a Star

As Simple As That

"Beloveds,

When you listen for our voices and for the communications we place on your paths, you give us the opportunity to tell you once again how very much we love you. We are here to assist you on your way each moment of your lives. Each and every one of you has been walking with an angel by your side since before you were born. This angel is your companion and is closer to you than your very best friend. Your angel knows all about you without your having to tell or describe or use human language, because you have always been together..

The thing we love to hear most is the sound of your thoughts and voices talking with us, for it then gives us the opportunity to tell you of Spirit, who loves you so very much, as well as assist you in feeling that love.

When you speak with us, we pull up a chair and give you our undivided attention. We focus on you and hear with our hearts, allowing the dreams. prayers and desires you share a clear pathway to God. We are love itself as Spirit made us. We bring Spirit's love back to you in full measure.

When we listen, we enfold you in our arms and wrap our wings about you in a hug that is never tighter than is comfortable for you. We love to hug you so that you can better feel Spirit's vast love that is here for you. At any time, you may choose to stand in this love and you may choose to feel us hold you whenever you wish.

There have been many questions regarding which technique is best to use when communicating with us. It is with a gentle embrace and a soft chuckle that we tell you the technique you choose to use is not for us, but solely for you. Use whatever technique makes you most comfortable, yet allows you to feel you are making progress and hearing clearly.

It will be of great benefit to most of you to sit quietly and clear your minds. Give verbal intent that you converse with us. Breathe deeply and easily. Allow the mental chatter to cease. Then, begin the conversation as you would with a good friend, because that is exactly who we are and what this relationship is... that of good friends. Say Hello. Tell us what is on your mind so that we know you are clear on what it is you are saying. Ask a question.

Then, listen. If you continue to talk or allow your mind to chatter, you will be blocking our answers. Listen for the words that come into your heart and your mind. We will answer as a good friend answers, with comfort and reassurance. Listen for the words that tell you how very much you are loved, as this is most often the first thing we will say. Allow yourselves to feel the joy that being with us brings. Stay in this feeling as you continue the conversation. Bring your heart into the forefront. Forget about your body, your clothes and the room you are in. Simply be with us and allow us to love you.

Allow the mystery surrounding this to fall away. Allow your opinions of this to fall away. Listen with your heart of hearts. It is as simple as that.

Beloveds, we tell you that this is our greatest pleasure and joy. We tell you that there is much rejoicing over the fact that so many of you wish to re-member your connection with us. We are overjoyed and wish to convey that joy to you. Your willingness to sit and listen allows us to share that joy with you, whom we love so very much.

Re-member, keep it simple. Anything you choose to assist you in hearing us is fine. There are many tools available that people use. Angel cards open pathways people have blocked within themselves.. The cards create paths for our messages to alight on. They open your hearts to hearing what it is we have to say.

Walking in nature is an excellent way to put yourself in a receptive state. You were created to be in nature and your willingness to go outside provides an automatic openness to something larger than yourselves. It is this openness that allows you to hear us, who are so very close to you already.

Your willingness itself opens many doors. Simply sitting quietly clears the pathways, too.

Many have said that they sit and yet do not hear anything. Remember, sitting opens the pathways. The conversation that ensues brings the words. It is of extreme importance that you realize this. Good conversation involves listening as well as talking. Ask one question and then listen. Pick up a notebook and a pen, go to your computer, or turn on your tape recorders. Without pausing or judging, take note of the answers you hear. Do not worry if they seem to be incomplete or consist only of one word. Many of you are so limited in your ability to focus and listen that these types of answers are the first types you may receive. New skills need to be practiced. As you talk with us day after day, your skills will increase until our conversation is free and easy.

Do not be concerned if you do not "hear" anything on the first try. We love to simply be with you. It is good just to rest in each other's arms. It is good for us to know that you feel us hugging you and protecting you. Allow yourselves quiet time for visiting with us often, for we love to be with you. Fill yourselves with the love of Spirit that we bring to you, for it is the gift most precious and that which we exist to bring. Always re-member that it is our function to love. Will you allow us the joy of bringing this gift to you?

It is with the greatest love that we ask you to continue in your attempts. We tell you that you will not be disappointed if you open your hearts to love, for love is, and always is, and so it is..."

As my Angels finished speaking, I felt again their excitement at being able to share these words with you. They love the speed of communication the internet allows, and they ask that you look for answers from your own Angels to come with similar speed. The answers will be instantaneous, and because of that fact you may often feel that you have held the knowledge inside of you all the time. This is a broad hint and a loving nudge. Could your Angel reside within you?

I thank my Angels for being here with us right now. I thank them for allowing me to bring their lovely words to all of you. Be at peace.

Catherine Kasper first met her Angels when she was less than a year old. She saw balls of light that seemed to be woven into her favorite blanket. They talked with her often and reminded her of Home. As she grew, Catherine's Angels stayed with her, speaking through her favorite toys. Later on, they sat by her left shoulder in the form of balls of light and whispered explanations of the things she was experiencing. Today, they are simply here, she says, constantly with her, comfortable as old teddy bears, and she speaks with them daily.

Catherine has been an educator for nearly 25 years. In her job as an Elementary School Art Teacher and Library/Media Specialist, she teaches over 500 students a week to access Spirit. Catherine says it is wonderful to add the Angel area of PlanetLightworker to her experience, and that she expands the range of her instruction through the Angels area of PlanetLightworker.com.
