Maintain balance so that heart, mind and body remain as one, so that what you imagine you can create comes to fruition, so that what you dream becomes reality. With heart, mind and body aligned nothing will stand in your way. Rest assured that such alignment will bring you into better alignment with not only the energy within yourself but also with energies outside of yourself, and just as you will be better and calmer within so will your actions and interactions in the outside world be better, calmer and more fruitful. If there is one goal to pursue, this may be it. For without balance chaos has an opening, and chaos is not good, for you or the world.

Sending you love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

Guidance comes in so many different ways to help you through your daily life, to show you how to make good decisions and aid you as you seek higher ground, as you seek a spiritual way. Look to your dreams but also to events, signs and sudden signals in your waking life as well. Notice how your calls for help are answered and how your guides and helpers respond to you, for often they will use the same methods repeatedly. And remember: Ask and you will receive. Though the answer may come in unexpected ways, and perhaps may not be the answer you expect, you will get an answer. Even silence is an answer.

Sending you love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

Each day offers an opportunity to change, to do something new, to more fully become the person you are meant to be, to explore what it means to be human. Notice how nature never misses an opportunity, how each day changes are taking place, sometimes subtlety, sometimes drastically. Without fear be open to the changes that come into your own life. Rather than regret them embrace them, for they are as natural as can be. Change is the hand of the divine showing you where to go next.

Sending you love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

Without fear turn your thoughts to useful turns of phrase around kindness, compassion and love on a daily basis. There is enough negativity in the world to last a century. Why not break the bad habit of constant negative chatter with a little beauty of positivity. Turn your own mind into a chatterbox of love music and emit the pleasurable sounds of kindness wherever you roam.

Sending you love,

A Meditation for January 20, 2024

“The wounded frequently want to hurt others. Meanness is not always involved but an unconscious bitterness that wants to control. The worst wounds are not always physical. Some who have suffered psychological wounds are bent on full payment whether or not it is due. The pity of it is, the wounded is the only one that cannot escape. Pain and unforgiveness are replayed day after day—as though sadness is an honorable reason never to heal. Whole lifetimes are given to demanding respect and veneration—for no other reason than life has dealt them a wound, a wound that would heal if there were a little love.” – From A Cherokee Feast of Days, Volume 2, Joyce Sequichie Hifler
