Tarot and Oracle Readings with other Spiritual Matters by Barb Ward



Last week, I had an amazing Shaman meditation where I met up with Archangel Ariel. She appeared to me surrounded in pink very similar to the above image. She, as was intuited to me, is my Guardian angel. I was asking for guidance on a question that I had and she gave me the message that I was seeking.

Here’s is more about Archangel Ariel:

Thank you, Archangel Ariel, for always watching over me. I’m truly grateful.

Today, I took a shamanic journey to meet up with my Spirit Guide. Before the Guide made their presence known to me, I came across a tiger lying there in wait of me. I was not afraid. It was a protector guide for me during the meditation.

Tiger symbolism stands for strength, fearlessness and prowess.

The animal represents a release of fears, and standing for truth, justice and integrity.

For Native Americans, a tiger represents leadership, physical grace and strength. It also exhibits intuitive ability , sensitive hearing and night vision and say it’s medicine includes clairaudience and clairvoyance. The tigers are consider spirit keepers.

Tiger spirit animal is suitable for someone who acts with precision, instills confidence, deepens presence, and awakens passion and power.

And so it goes.

Yesterday, I did a guided meditation by Lisa Beachy to meet-up with an Angel. I did a similar meditation years ago like this one and it’s still forged in my mind. I just wanted to share my experience with you. So, here it goes.

The meditation guided me to a path to meet up with an Angel. I visualized an open road that I was traveling on. The first image was of a Dove flying above me in the sky.

Dove symbolism and meaning include peace, love, hope, devotion, navigation, messages, grace, gentleness, purity, the Holy Spirit, the human soul and hope.

As I got closer , I began to see an Angel there to greet me. She had a beautiful white, flowing dress on and a crown of flowers in her blond hair.

She hugged me in a warm embrace . Then , she handed to me a leather bound book.

She told me that in it was all of my soul contracts and the history of my past lives. She told me ” Know thyself.” We then departed and I turned back on the road to home.

It was a very profound and deep meditation and it will be forever etched in my memory.

So, this is what I discovered this morning. On my Spirit table, I had my latest oracle card posted like this:

And this morning I discovered that the feathers looked like this:

As you can see, the feathers are rest against the card and crossed. Fascinating! Now, I know I have a tricky son in the house that likes to leave tricky messages for me so it could be him but what if he didn’t? Hmm? Regardless, it’s interesting.

Feathers, in general, symbolize the protection and love of guardian angels. the wind, the creator and even your connection with God.

Feathers became associated with the angels thus the saying” When feathers are near, the angels are here.” You should always pick up a feather that you find on your path and keep it amongst your treasures.

Gray feathers meaning is: the represent the balance between two opposing forces, a neutrality of emotion and energy. It is sign from your angels that your are on cusp of wisdom and knowledge, that you are on the right path of to spirituality and enlightenment.

So, ah ha! I’m not going to ask my son if he left that message for me. I’d like to keep it a mystery. Regardless, these are awesome messages for me this morning. I am grateful. I just wanted to share this with you.

Heal- Wounds need to be acknowledged before you can heal, especially those unseen. Give yourself the time, space- whatever is necessary- to regain your wholeness.

Message: ” Self – love involves knowing yourself deeply and taking responsibility for whatever you need right now. Self-love means self-care , not selfishness, focusing on the well-being of the most important person in your life. How can anything else take precedence over a vial, radiant, fully functioning you?”

Notes from Me: Sometime we get so caught up in life taking care of others that we forget to take care of ourselves. Do take care of yourself. Take the time necessary to focus on you. Heal what needs to be healed. Let go of whatever isn’t serving you anymore. Love YOU!

This week’s Archangel is: Archangel Raphael- The Divine Physician

Archangel Raphael is the Green Ray of the Seven Rays whose message is about Healing and Truth. His Crystal/ Stone is Emerald and Malachite. Essential Oils are Chamomile, Lavender, Lemon, Rose, Sandalwood and Spearmint.

Message from The Deck: ” Healing doesn’t begin in the body, it begins in the mind and soul. It isn’t the body that determines how you feel but your mind that determines what state your body is in. Think healing, positive thoughts at this time and be grateful for what’s good about your body and your health. Recognize the health benefits you already have and more will be brought to you. You may well find that the Angels are also here to help you to heal others, but in order for you to do this, you must ensure that you are in good health. So, heal within, then learn what you shared with the world.”

Affirmations: I am Healing

I am healed.

I am healthy

I am well

Notes from me: I have been having health issues for awhile now. It feels that my body is breaking down but I know that that is not entirely true. There are parts of me that are healthy and well. For that , I am grateful. It’s my mission this year to begin to heal the parts of me that need healing. One of the most important things to aid me in doing this is meditation and embracing myself for who I am right now. It’s going to be a path to healing mind, body and soul. Every day, in every way, I am getting better. So be it.

From Angel Prayers Oracle by Kyle Gray

Archangel Zadkiel is the Purple Ray of the Seven Rays. Their message is one of freedom and transformation. Their crystal is Lapis Lazuli ( the heart stone in picture) and their essential oils are: Lavender, Rosewood and Sandalwood.

” Zadkiel’s name means “Righteousness of God. He (she) is the Angel that brings emotional balance and helps us transmute any negative experience into focus for love and learning. He (she) is the keeper of the Violet flame, a spiritual energy space where we can release and surrender anything that no longer serves us.” from Kyle Gray/ Angel Prayer Oracle.

Notes from Me: I did a meditation with Archangel Zadkiel today guided by Lisa Beachy. I’ve been having some doubts and fears about something and I asked Zadkiel for balance and focus on it. He (she) gave me the answers that I sought. I thank you Archangel Zadkiel.

Call upon Archangel Zadkiel if you need answers to things and Zadkiel will respond with and help to transmute any negativity in your life .

So be it.

From Kyle Gray’s weekly Angel Message

Archangel Raziel

Message: ” Whether you are a natural intuitive, psychic, dancer, writer, yoga teacher or whatever, you have the natural gift to connect with spirit, because you are spirit. You are also born with gifts and talents. You may not see them but that doesn’t mean they aren’t there. Pay attention over the next few weeks to anyone asking to show you something or help them with problems that have already overcome in your life. You have spiritual gifts coming in alignment and Archangel Raziel wants to help you channel them. Go for it!”

Archangel Raziel is the Archangel of clairvoyance, spiritual understanding and in reclaiming your power. Their color is rainbow and their crystal/ stone is Clear Quartz.

Notes from Me: No matter whether you realize it or not, you’re putting out energy in the world in all your words, thoughts and deeds. Always strive for a positive mind frame and energy essence. You just never know who may need that the most. Touch a heart today.

So be it and so it is.

In the past few days, I’ve seen the number 7 flash around me so much so that I knew I had to pay attention to it. So, what does the number 7 mean in numerology and angel meanings.

In numerology, number 7 is highly spiritual. The number 7 symbolizes humanity’s deep inner need to find depth, meaning, and spiritual connection.

The Angel Number symbolism of 7 is a person’s inner wisdom, self-awareness, intuition and mysticism.

When it comes to numerology, this is a number that represents the right blend of spirituality and practicality.

And so it is!

What number are you seeing a lot of lately?
