Joy – Angel Ramaela “Joy is food for the soul, the aroma of eternal ecstasy wafting on Heavenly air. Ramaela (raw-May-el-a) flies on wings of Joy and the buds of spring burst forth from her creative fires.” Kimberly Marooney – Angel Blessings
Joy is truly natural. It is the sign within that tells us everything is running smoothly. Joy has no thought process; it is a natural response to a lack of mental interference. Transformation is like moving when minds are focused and tranquil, our hearts become more powerful keeping Love alive creates Joy there is no separation between Love and Joy in that moment when we radiate a joyful energy field that everyone feels
How many times do we have to stop and search for Joy or more commonly look for moments of happiness.
Or look for something to shift our focus into a place of more Light. Let us look at Joy as being the emotional energy of Light.
We don’t need to study anything to try to figure it out.
As I sit and contemplate the word Joy this morning, I realize that Joy isn’t something that we acquire or is something outside of us. Joy dwells within us.
We can’t buy or sell Joy; however, what we can do and what we indeed do is create Joy.
Not only can we create it within ourselves. It is highly contagious, and we can also inspire its creation in others around us.
So what are the aspects of Joy?
Joy is like a Bubbling Brook always flowing, making happy soundsor like a bird who sings for no reason just because it’s there.
Most of us find ourselves in a place where we are overthinking everything, and, in that process, we are creating a negative field of energy. When we are in a negative field of energy, Joy is less likely to appear.
Part of our journey right now as we move through 2021 is to access higher levels of positive energy outside of the ones that we create within us.
Sit and think about what brings you Joy or what makes you feel joyous.
Allow that to become your attractor field, as in what attracts you to it, and what you attract to yourself, much like a magnet.
As we become more of a magnet for Joy, what we will find is that we will also emanate more Joy.
All of this is a natural process of living life as human beings because we were also Angelic beings before becoming human.
Now I know a lot of you may not believe in Angels or what we understand as Angels. However, each of us has the capacity and the energetic frequency of Angels in our higher dimensional self.
Do you welcome Joy into your life?
Do you know that knowledge, truth, and vision are also forms of Joy and that joyfulness is energizing our creative processes? Which automatically attunes you to Angels.
The popular image that we have of Angels are of those who are creatively playful. Many pictures of Angels are also strong and protective, but even they have a playfulness.
That playfulness is Joy! When we lose our playfulness, we become captives, if you will, in a world where Joy is looked upon as not being serious or committed to a particular project.
This entrainment of humanity has created the chaos that you see in society right now. We have focused ourselves on protection and weapons and power and ownership, and at that moment, we gave away Our real power of Joy to others.
Real Joy does not come from someone else, although their Joy may encourage it to appear within you.
Joy is offering our true self to another, and this is what the Angels are asking us to do today.
To become as little children who don’t try to figure things out in order two overpower someone else, they enjoy the process of wonder.
Everything can become anything, for they live in a world of many possibilities.
If we become as children once again, The Angels of Joy will surround us and assist us in everything we do.
When we forget, we will immediately notice the difference in our energy in what we’re doing.
The energy and processes we emit when we no longer tap into the Joy within us become denser, and we tend to struggle.
Angels are the messengers of Joy and gladness and what they are saying to us today is that even your most trivial aspects of life have a song that can brighten your day.
If we only begin once again to look for Joy and simple expressions of brilliance, the Light within everything we’re doing, will lighten us to the place where Joy flows like an eternal River from the source of higher dimensional business.
I was reminded by a friend last night of a mighty River that carved its way from the top of a mountain to the ocean. No matter what came to be an obstruction in its path, it kept gurgling and singing all the way, no matter what it embraced in its course.
The message is when we let go of what our obstacles are and embrace the rippling and gurgling of the moment, we begin to realize that no matter what happens in our lives, we always have had opportunities to focus on Joy and share it with others.
I know it’s hard for many of us who are embracing the loss of loved ones, the loss of our financial stability, the loss of our health to sit and think we can be joyous at this moment. However, when we trust that Higher Self, our higher Angelic Self will begin a shift.
It is what we place our trust in that makes the difference in our lives.
When we trust in the world rather than trust in Spirit, we get what is offered by the world, for in the physical world, there is a struggle and there is hard work, yet in the Spirit world, there is Joy.
I guess the Angels’ message today is to take a look within yourselves and ask yourself: What am I aligning with and what am I trusting in and see the direct connection to what I’m feeling.
My message is always that we are continually being presented a point of choice, to Choose Again. Choose Joy!
Good morning and grand rising to each of you around the world as we move forward into newness.
This morning, I think about humanity, and it amazes me how our existence’s fragmentation right now creates an extraordinarily fragile experience. This fragility is based upon what we have been told, rather than being open to the truth of what we are experiencing.
Each of us feels a mixture of hope versus depression, and it is hard to visualize what our future will be like. At this moment, we are all living within peaks and valleys that energetically are challenging everyone, at every level of consciousness.
The positive message from this confusion is that we are all coming to a zero point, where we have an opportunity to find a pathway out of this dilemma.
All of which is an energetic global action, meaning that all life forms are experiencing this together, be they human or animal or even plant life.
Whether from fear or worry or desire to be together and embrace each other, all of the energies now being produced actively create a new energetic paradigm. However, this is a new beginning, not an ending.
What does a new beginning look like for you?
Are you genuinely desiring something better?
Is it more important to continue struggling and trying to fix what is broken?
The time right now is basically to take out the trash.
Look around yourself and see what negativity you have collected, whether intentionally or not, and now seek to check out the garbage.
Humans have a remarkable capability to overthink everything. Our creative mind always enamors us, and it’s the ability to want to lead us in new directions.
Now is the heart’s time.
We must lead each other from our hearts, from what the heart feels rather than from what the mind thinks.
Open your heart’s energy field as wide as you possibly can.
To do this isn’t very comforting for most people. For thousands of years, we have been shutting down and building walls around our hearts.
That process has created opportunities for isolation and control by others, and right now, we are experiencing that at its highest level.
We need to open our hearts and re-learn how to love each other, for we have distanced ourselves from our remarkable ability to love and embrace each other in kindness and joy.
This isolation of being separated physically creates thoughts that are not only destructive but poisonous. The poison now needs a remedy, much like the virus that has overcome the world needs a cure.
The current coronavirus is genuinely an influential teacher, which if it fails in its lesson of teaching us, our separation and self-destructive behaviors will not end. Its message will then be passed on to future generations about the ending of our lives and civilization.
I know it is hard for everyone to keep their heart open, but this is the only way we can find our way out of this desperate hole of distress that is swallowing us and destroying lifetime upon lifetime of co-creative existence.
Each one of us has a fantastic ability within our hearts to make a difference with minimal effort. The only step we need to take is to allow ourselves to release the pain and suffering we experience when it arises.
Do not continue swallowing it or stuffing it, or justifying it.
It is a poison far greater and more deadly than the coronavirus, and the virus is only the vehicle for it to be seen and heard, and felt.
As we enter the month of February, we are once again changing seasons. Whether we’re north or south of the equator, every season brings us an opportunity to focus on our living experience.
Supposing we attune to planet earth’s natural cycles more closely within our own physical and mental experiences.
We will then automatically come back into alignment with a natural process that has kept planet earth alive far longer than humans have been on it.
We have genuinely distorted our relationship over the thousands of years of our existence here, and we are now paying the price for it.
So, it is really an imbalance that we have created, mostly without our Higher Conscious choice.
We have just been fascinated with our overwhelming ability to generate and admire ourselves in this very selfish collective behavior as an awakening species of Mother Earth.
Let us become less aggressive now and create processes to realign ourselves, making a less destructive process that needs to be shared with others.
Let us come back into a rhythm once again with Mother Earth’s cycles in our own personal and physical bodies. It is in remembering that we have this incredible ability and intelligence to change everything in the world.
It is not beneficial to anyone when we destroy the world to create a new world.
Come back into your heart and release what no longer serves you or any other living beings.
Yes, it will be challenging. However, as I always say, we are the most amazing of creator beings here on this planet, and we have all the power we need when we align our will to co-create the highest level of community.
When we align and create positive energy, the outcome will be positive.
If we stay aligned in negativity, we will destroy everything.
These are the laws of the Universe, and no matter what we tell each other about our future within the Universe. We are only a fragment of it.
Let us praise and co-create what we can do for each other that balances all of our relations.
Our human history may be very dark,
yet it is time to bring Our Higher Light and Love to All
Thank you Great Creator for your Gracious Presence.
May you for always hear us in the moments of our despair.
Today We come to ask for the restoration of our magnificence both individually and collectively as We move forward on our evolutionary path.
Each one of us are questioning everything seeking wise guidance and the proper tools that will assist us in following your guidance
Let it be We who bring restoration to a new level of meaningfulness wherein Peace, Light and Love flow in a better balance and harmony
May it be the co-creative restorative process that inspires others into seeking moments of positive action for all life forms whether We understand them as living or not.
Let Restoration begin within our own living presence opening the passageways for Inner Joy to become manifest and offered with Love to All.
May We Lead from within our hearts to help renew all of our commitments with the re-balancing of all that has become unstable both within and around us globally
As the restoration process removes the distortion and scarring of centuries within ourselves Let us also reach out to all children as leaders
Showing them how restoration is more than just a healing of our present wounds it is also an awakening to what is needed in their future.
So Together Today We Ask for renewal and strength within ourselves We Ask for a better understanding of the qualities of leadership – both ours and others We ask for encouragement and inspiration for all future generations.
In order that we correct the errors and heal the wounds of the past Renewing our commitment to live in a more Unified Future of Humanity.
“It will be given you to see your brother’s worth when all you want for him is peace. And what you want for him you will receive.”
It is always so very interesting to not know what I’m going to be speaking about when I wake up in the morning and prepare to do my presence of light talk.
The word appreciation arose within the context of somebody feeling appreciative for what someone else was offering them. It was an offering of upliftment.
This talk is the last one for January of 2021.
The question for me as I awoke this morning was,
How do I see the first month of this year as a period of change?
As I thought about it, I couldn’t really make a list because it became mindboggling. Is it changes that have begun are almost too numerous to even imagine?
The feeling however that I’m left with is one of appreciation.
I know that in the middle of all that is happening people may say how can you feel that?
Yet what I see happening is people coming together period.
Yes, we see people coming together in negative ways on the public television and news network.
And I’m left wondering why we do not see more positive aspects of the changes that are happening.
What I see are very strong Egos struggling to get attention, struggling to make their words be the right words without taking into consideration that most of them sound like barking dogs.
For me barking dogs are annoying, it is a sound that is saying pay attention to me in a very self-centered way. It makes me look in the mirror and ask myself is that who I am?
When we look in the mirror in this new year 2021 let us ask that face that stares back at us who are you? What do you want? And why aren’t you doing it?
Deeply within our hearts we want to return to a place where we can express kindness to each other in a peaceful manner.
Somehow our ability to not only be the peace we are
but to express it has had a wall built around it
so that it doesn’t get outside of that wall and affect others.
When we look at history we see how countries have built walls to protect themselves and we see how the walls have all failed to protect them.
Building walls does not solve problems what it does is send a signal of fear of deep fearfulness an unwillingness to look at what the fear is and to resolve it.
Lettuce look at this first month of 2021 and say to ourselves I am well,
I am peace, I am whole,
I am a being of light and love
the first word is peace
all week long I have been sharing with people that we are born into our physicality from a place of peace and that when we die we first return to a place of peace.
In that simple understanding of from peace to peace we have to look at our lives as a space between. A journey between two places of peace in which we get to explore life in a physical form in which we are given an opportunity to be the other two aspects of who we are light and love .
Light is the vehicle for love and love is what we truly are.
Yet during our lifespan here as human beings we are always seeking love. Seeking it from outside of us. When in truth that is what we are .
2021 is a year in which we are to seek the love we are and bring it forward into the light that we are and let it flow forth as the water we are. So that everyone can drink the from the Cup of peace. The chalice of the well if you will of who we truly are.
I encourage people who are suffering from their journeys of inner self discovery to not look at it as a permanent scar but too realize that the healing time has begun
and it is only how deeply we want to seek healing rather than retribution that will reveal to us the wall we had put around us and which needs to be dissolved.
Each one of you as well as I are amazing beings of peace light and love that have forgotten and had the world around us bury us alive and it is now a time of resurrection.
A resurrection from within our hearts not from our minds .
For it is the minds that have created the walls it is the mind that needs protection it is the mind that lives in fear
we are not the mind
we are the heart
so my message today is to come back into your heart right into the roots of that beautiful Lotus and grow out of the mud and the mire by allowing the peace the light and the love to nurture us as human beings.
There are no governments, no laws, no contracts, no copyrights, nothing we can think of in material form, that can do anything more for us to be who we truly are then to surrender to your heartbeat.
May 2021 be the year in which your heartbeat becomes the drum to which you make every step forward.
Hello everyone I just wanted to share what I have been hosting for the last week on Good of the Whole. It is held on Zoom but can also be joined in on Facebook.
There is more information below and if you feel called to join us any night please look at the links below. I will continue to post the replays on my YouTube Channel as well.

Focusing on awakening to our highest Self by chanting, we can activate the power and wisdom that has forever been within us, as well as bringing forth great happiness and embodied fulfillment to others we encounter daily.
It also helps us to arise from suffering and delusion into our true nature which awakens the power, wisdom, compassion, and divine life force within us.
Japa Mala is Nightly @ 10:00 PM Eastern. Facebook Live and in The Connection Field with Good of the Whole. Sign in for zoom room ID at www.ConnectionFieldDigest.org
About the Chant: Devotion to the Mystic Law of the Lotus Sutra / Glory to the Dharma of the Lotus Sutra) are words chanted within all forms of Nichiren Buddhism
Namu to devotion or dedicate oneself
Myoho is Mystic Law
Renge means Lotus Blossom Kyo means Sutra
“Nam-myoho-renge-kyo is not only the core of the Buddha’s lifetime teachings, but also the heart, essence, and ultimate principle of the Lotus Sutra” The Writings of Nichiren Daishonin, vol. 1, p. 860).
Let’s keep chanting together!
Our collective heart breaks as we stand at the edge of our world going through its current Dark Night of the Soul. We clearly know that everything feels out of balance and extremely unsettling. But the stars tell us that all is moving in the right direction! If we stay focused on love, joy, creativity, and peace, that is what our experiences will be now and in the future.
As we rest in tranquility, safety, and inner peace, our illusions of separation and societal upheaval will begin to dissolve. We will regain pure reverence for all of nature and each other, acknowledging our connection to everything in existence.
We will chant together 108 times as a spiritual practice to experience calm and sustainable peace. Our japa mala will give us clarity of mind and openness of heart. For 40 nights, this mantra meditation will help us steward the consciousness of what it means to truly live for the good of the whole… for our families, our community, our country, our land, all people, and for the world.
Blessings to All this morning as we move rapidly into the future of our collective existence.
The Collective Existence of all life forms here on Planet Earth.
I am being reminded of how important it is for us, as Humans, to come back into balance with all of Nature.
We are all experiencing some vast swings of energy right now, which indicate a dangerous imbalance.
Our wisdom and ability to create and transform are needed to take a more in-depth look at co-creating a future more balanced and stable for our children.
A message from A Course In Miracles reads:
“Try then, today, to begin to look on all things with love, appreciation, and open-mindedness.” W,45
If you had begun the daily workbook of A Course in Miracles on January 1st, Today would be Lesson 22, which states:
“What I see is a form of vengeance.” It asks us to look at the world around us five times during the day and say to ourselves:
I see only the perishable.
I see nothing that will last.
What I see is not real.
What I see is a form of vengeance.
Then it asks us to ask ourselves:
Is this the world I really want to see?
25 years ago, as an ACIM facilitator, I wrote the following notes on this page:
“Why?
What are the experiences through an error in thinking we do not want?
My answer, which I sure I shared with those whom I was facilitating, was:
Discover our own responsibility for our unhappiness by becoming the observer of what we do.”
Let us think of the year 2021 as one of self-discovery!
One in which we question everything without the focus being on judgment but discovery.
The next ACIM card was stuck to a piece of tape on the box of cards, which is well worn after 25 years of always being on my desk.
Interestingly it’s from the Text section of the Course Text,22
Perhaps the Angels are having a little fun with me Today as none of this was on my mind as I arose from bed this morning.
Are you ready for this?
“The children of God are entitled to the perfect comfort that comes from perfect trust. Until they achieve this, they waste themselves and their true creative powers on useless attempts to make themselves more comfortable by inappropriate means.” T,22
Thank You to All Angels who are with me Today and especially Fortunata, the Angel of Prosperity.
Whose card I randomly pulled from Kimberly Marooney’s Angel Blessings Cards. I purchased this deck of cards at the store where I was guided to facilitate ACIM in Portsmouth, NH, all those years ago.
The synchronicity of all this becomes more visible as Today’s date reduces to a 10, and Fortunata’s card number does as well.
I just shared a story last night of how synchronicity is a language, not just a coincidence. So with that said, here are some of the messages from Fortunata:
“Do you focus on things and worldly success, experiencing a poverty-stricken soul?”
“Freedom lies in the balance of being able to use and enjoy the abundance of this material world, without thinking that your life depends upon it. This is the result of a supportive mind and emotional body, a faith in the creative principles of abundance and desire, and a deep connection with your purpose or Divine Plan.”
“According to the creative principle, abundance is always available.
Anything you say or think is a decree of creation.”
“The energy generated from your thoughts and feelings forms a structure around you that draws others with similar energy patterns. Listen to yourself talk as you go through the day.
The moment you catch yourself being critical or judgmental is a magical moment of power!”
“Simply choose to change from a limiting to a loving energy.
At that moment, you are consciously choosing what you wish to create. This is your opportunity to choose mastery and abundance.”
“Ask Fortunata and your eternal self to help you see the truth and focus on it, aligning your mind and feelings to support your desires.”
