Archangel Gabriel: Nurturing Communion
with Your Soul
Received by Shanta Gabriel
Dear Ones,
Your focus of attention is what brings forth the manifestation
of your soul into daily life. When was the last time you focused
on your soul? This part of you, which is your most authentic, true,
eternal, Divine Self awaits your attention. With only a small thought,
there is a tremendous surge of energy allowing you a deep and benevolent
connection to guidance and wisdom. You can be assured that your
soul has your best interest as its foremost intention. You can
know that the most secret longings of your heart are a part of
the makeup of its very being. Trusting in your soul's guidance
can become one of the greatest joys in your life.
When you become enamored with the idea of knowing the pure depths
of your soul, it is like a quest that leads you onward. This forward
movement guides your path home to Oneness with all that is, was
and ever shall be. At the same time you will sink ever more deeply
inward into the deepest sources of your very being. Does this not
sound delicious? Allowing yourself to gain a foothold in communion
with your soul can assist you in the greatest fulfillment of your
spiritual destiny on earth. This is this achievement for which
your soul has hungered. It is that feeling behind your thought,
the part of you beneath the one that searches constantly, always
leading you onward when you find the next earthly goal leaving
you still unsatisfied.
Have you ever heard the old story about the Creator implanting
your greatest treasure into the deepest reaches of the heart, where
you would never think to look? In some ways it is very true. The
soul is only available when you go deep within your being and find
your own personal, authentic and very beautiful treasure.
It can be the quest of a lifetime and yet truly, your treasure
is not hidden to the heart that is open, the mind that is willing,
and the spirit that allows itself to receive love. These are the
qualities that spark the soul to pull aside the many veils on the
path and gently guide the way into the temple of Grace within your
being. Here the soul will speak to you in a myriad of resonate
voices. As a personal part of your soul's journey you find those
voices that have the greatest resonance and cause your heart to
sing with Joy and Gratitude. The more you listen, the more pure
these voices become. The deeper you trust in your own soul's wisdom,
the more empowered becomes your life path.

Your Soul Awaits
______________
Extreme measures are often necessary to awaken the human consciousness
in order to hear the soul's voice. Your soul waits patiently for
your attention, but when the impulse of your original life contract
becomes time appropriate, many opportunities begin to present themselves.
These opportunities often come as synchronous happenings, "chance" meetings,
or nagging thoughts behind your conscious awareness. All are meant
to get your attention and for you to take time to witness the communication
coming to you from your soul. At the beginning, these impulses
may be soft and quiet, but after a while they will gain strength
calling on you until finally, all may be stripped away so you have
no choice but to listen.
How much more graceful would it be to take your accustomed place
on your seat of meditation, and ask your soul for the guidance
you need to fulfill your purpose on Earth? This willingness to
receive opens the floodgate of Heaven's Light. Your soul awakens
your inner connection to the deepest resources within your being,and
your path gains clarity and joy.
It is like a muscle that needs exercise to stay strong in order
to function in an optimum way. You may not receive the instant
revelation you were hoping for, but with practice and even a small
amount of self-discipline, the rewards will be great. When you
begin the spiritual practice of attunement with your soul, consider
taking some clear steps to set this intention.

A Simple Practice
_______________
1. Commit yourself to a minimum of 10-15 minutes every day. Early
in the morning helps the day unfold more gracefully and you will
find that you benefit more from this quiet time than 30 minutes
extra sleep. If you are the type that thrives at night, consider
taking your meditation time after your day becomes quiet again,and
before you sleep as long as you can stay awake to give your full
attention to your alignment with your soul.
2. Make the place where you sit as beautiful as you can, uncluttered
and clean. Light a candle as a dedication to the Light within your
soul. Ask to receive from the deepest sources of your being the
guidance you need to fulfill your soul's purpose.
3. Consciously breathe in Divine Light from above your head in
a sparkling pillar through your body and down into the earth below
your seat. You can use white, gold, purple or even a rainbow of
Divine Light. These are all colors that carry a high vibration.
Experiment to find the one that you can resonate with the most.
4. Have a pad and pen to journal any insights that come to you.
Know that through your actions you are "priming the spiritual
pump" to encourage a flow of inspiration. It is very individual
how the guidance will come to you. There may be a flow of inspiring
words, a deep inner knowing, or perhaps you will open a book and
the answer will be there. Having your paper ready, just in case
thoughts come to you, is a useful way to clear your mind and to
let your soul know you are ready to receive insights on your path.
Be very open and receptive. Don't let your critical mind get in
the way of any positive and powerful guidance you may receive.
5. Sit and breathe in Light with a clear intention to receive inspiration
from your soul. Stay as long as you can. Know that even 10 to 30
minutes are very helpful and will offer you a sense of well-being.
The nurturing your spirit receives helps pave the way to a more
fruitful and happy future.

A Journey with Your Soul
____________________
When you give yourself time to receive from the loving presence
of your soul, a new joy and peace will awaken within you. You will
feel you are doing what you came on earth to do, even if nothing
apparently changes in your outer life at first. Soon you will begin
to attract more opportunities and support you never knew before.
All manner of assistance will bless your path. You cannot expect
it to look a certain way, but if you can continue your intention
to receive more Grace, Harmony and Peace in your life, so it will
be.
This Soul's Journey is the one for which you have been called.
You are never alone when you walk the path being shown to you from
the guidance within your being. The Heavens rejoice in your commitment
to your spiritual path, and you are blessed. Small steps will have
great rewards. Be at Peace.
And so it is.
Shanta Gabriel
