Swinging On a Star

As Simple As That

When you take the time to place yourself in the state of peaceful reflection, you are notifying us that you intend to be receptive to what it is we have to say. Focus on your breathing. Breathe deeply and slowly and bring your thoughts to a standstill as much as you are able. With practice, this will become easier. Remain in this state for awhile. Relax and allow yourself to enjoy being calm. Continue to breathe deeply, allowing any distraction to melt away. Allow any tension to leave your body.

If you wish, you may recite a prayer that sets the intent for the conversation. Eventually, you will develop your own way in your own words to do this, but until then, please feel free to try these simple statements:

Dear Beloved Angels, I wish to sit within your love and protection for this time. I wish to tell you my thoughts and hear yours in return. I ask that you make your presence known to me, that I am safe and hear only you bringing the clear voice of God to my entire being.

Another way to put yourself into the proper focus is to say:

Dear Beloved Spirit. Let my words be your words, my thoughts be your thoughts, my hopes your hopes, my dreams your dreams. Let my heart be your heart and my love be your love. Remain with me and fill my being so I may hear your words and become as you are - a clear voice for God.

When you feel rested and focused, bring your question to mind. You may ask it in any way you feel comfortable. You may ask it in your mind or write it on a piece of paper. Some people find that writing, whether on paper, computer, or typewriter makes the question real. It brings the questioninto the concrete and it gives you something to focus on. Some people prefer using a tape recorder. Whatever you feel comfortable with is fine. We want you to feel good about talking with us.

Sometimes, lighting a candle and having it within your sight assists you to focus. Place it so it is in your line of vision, as the light it emits will serve to remind you of our light. You will better feel our presence then.

In stillness and peace, write the answer to your question. Do not be surprised if you do not actually hear any words. Simply write the information you are given to know in whatever way it has been perceived by you. Do not judge what you write. As a matter of fact, get used to thinking of this as a conversation between friends. You would not judge every single sentence a close friend says to you. Respond then to that answer, or ask another question. Begin a dialogue. Continue to write the answers as they are given to you. Do not stop to re-read the page or correct anything. Simply continue.

Write until you are out of questions and it has become apparent that the conversation has ended. It will end in much the same way a conversation with a friend ends. A certain amount of summing up takes place, thanks are given, hugs are exchanged, kisses are blown to each other, and the connection ceases. Know that we do not ever leave you at those moments. We remain with you constantly and will be here the next time you call upon us. You are the one who breaks the connection and goes off to do other things. We stand guard over you. We are always there for you and will be here when next you call.

Now, you may either read the conversation or you may put it away to read later. When read later, you will be more apt to recognize that the voices of the Angels are different from your own. You will easily be able to tell when your voice stops and the Angel's voices come in. Our words will always be words of comfort and compassion. Here is an example. In response to the question, "Who are you?" We said:

"We are the ones who value you deeply. We are the endless depths of love."

Another time, we responded this way to the same question:

"We are those who love you, those who tuck you into bed and sing to you in the middle of the night. We are the ones who dance with you. We are the ones who have always been with you."

Do not be embarrassed if your first attempts are not as complete as you thought they would be. As in first attempts at conversation with someone you are interested in on earth, there might be an awkwardness on your part. Do not let this affect you at all. Simply allow it to be. With repeated conversations this will disappear. It is the same as in conversations with humans. The awkwardness is there for a short while and then it disappears. Don't give it a second thought.

Enjoy the information you have been given. You can be justifiably happy that you have come this far in your attempts to communicate. The Angels are so very proud of your efforts. If you listen carefully, you might just hear applause.

We are joyful that you have taken this step and that the voice within you is heeded. We are proud of you.

Do not worry if you find that you have spent almost all of the conversation explaining things and doing all the talking. As your ability to become and remain peaceful increases, your ability to sit quietly and hear what the Angels have to say will increase also.

Do not be surprised if you experience a feeling of light- headedness at this point. Our vibration is quite a bit higher than yours and you may feel as though you have been out walking on the stars. We adjust our vibrations to better fit alongside yours, but it is not an exact energy match. You may continue to feel as though you are weightless for a time. Doing something to ground your energy will relieve you of any light-headedness. Go outside to walk in nature, work in the garden, shovel snow. Do something in nature and nature will restore your equilibrium.

Many people keep their records of Angelic communication in a special place. They devote a separate area of the computer memory to saving it. They sometimes put their notebooks in a secret place. They save it to a disk and keep the disks in a beautiful box which they keep by the computer. It is all right to do this. The time you spend in communication with your Angel is special. It is a relationship that is honorable. Do not have any doubt about honoring it.

Return to speak with us often. It is a perfect way to keep your focus and come back tothe knowledge that you are indeed deeply loved. Daily conversation with us will keep your skills sharp and give you regular practice. With time, when you re-read your record of Angelic conversations, you will realize that you have become adept at it. You will realize your skills have improved and that you hear us more completely each and every time we converse.

Next month, we will give you more examples of the many ways we Angels communicate. We will further explain the many types of questions people usually ask, and show you the variety of loving answers they receive. Until then, be at peace, for love is and always is and so it is.

If you have any questions of a general nature regarding communications with your Angels, or any other aspect of Angels, please feel free to send them to me at Catherine@Plan etlightworker.com. I will be certain to answer them in future articles.

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 section of PlanetLightworker to her experience, and to be able to expand the range of her instruction through this medium.
