They also aid in releasing memory and emotion that are stored

Tuesday
AromaYoga Class: 9. October 2007: 6:30
pm

Dear all! I hope you are enjoying this
beautiful weather as much as I do. I love
it.
Wednesday 10. October is
another New Moon in Libra. Lisa Dale Miller writes that
Libra rules all forms of relating. She says that it is
time for each of us to come into relationship with all
beings. Because the Libra New Moon rules love and
relationship, this is the most powerful New Moon for
bringing new love into your life. The New Moon in Libra
is a great time to caretake of intimate
relationships.
"These Libran principles are
applicable to all our relationships, be they intimate,
your family or professional. Think of how different our
world would be if we all practiced these values. This is
the New Moon to remind yourself that all any of us ever
really needs is love." (For more on Lisa's New Moon
letter, click the link in the link
section.)
Also, Karen Bishop writes
about the challenges in relationships in these times of
ascension on her website: "Whats up on planet
earth?"
We must first look to
ourselves. Look within and see where you can show your
love around you, where and how you can become a
messenger?
See you in class on
Tuesday,
Namaste, Tanja

ANGELS and
MESSENGERS
The word "angels," which
simply means "messengers," are amongst us...seen and unseen every
day. Anyone can be a "messenger," if they choose to bring a
message to someone.
Angels are spirits without
bodies, who possess superior intelligence, gigantic
strength, and surpassing holiness. Angels are composed of
ethereal matter, thus allowing them to take on whichever
physical form best suits their immediate needs.
Angels are
the essence of love and joy and stem from the Heart of
God/Goddess.
Angels are countless in
their number, and flock around the Universe in their
millions. Angels are dedicated to serve the needs of all
free will entities so that you may experience the same
level of unconditional love as they do. Each Angel
carries out its assigned task without any hint of
hesitation as they take great joy and pleasure in
offering their Loving Wisdom and Guidance. Everyone has
Angels around them constantly, without exception, and
they are eager and excited at the opportunity to
communicate with you.
Angels were created with
one purpose, the purpose to love and to serve all
without condition. In doing so, Angels hold a focus of
pure love throughout the Universe and are therefore able
to set up a resonance for the vibration of pure love
wherever it is needed. You on the other hand, are a free
will entity. That means that you have chosen to develop
your ability to exist with unconditional love by gaining
much experience through many lifetimes and many varied
forms of existence. The Angels have been created to
counter balance any energies or actions that move in the
opposite direction to love so that you will eventually
remember your true essence.
Everyone has at least
one Guardian Angel, and sometimes two or three. A
Guardian Angel is a being that is dedicated to serve and
to help you throughout your lifetime. However, the
relationship is somewhat deeper than that. Your Guardian
Angel was created out of the same essence that makes up
your soul. It could be said to be a higher, or essence
aspect of yourself. Your Guardian Angel isn't
essentially separate from you, it has absolute and
unequivocal dedication to you and travels with you on
every journey that you as a free will entity choose to
make. Your Guardian Angel makes an agreement with your
soul to assist it in completing any task it has decided
to undertake. This is the reason why Angels have been
known to make miraculous rescues from accidents. If a
soul has decided to remain focused on the Earth Plane
for a given length of time, an Angel will assist in
getting someone out of trouble who's 'time is not up'.
Angels and their miracles are God's way of remaining
anonymous.
An Angel, is complete, unified and
centered within the Heart of the Divine at all times. An
Angel does not question or contemplate itself, it simply
is. In being itself, it is a bundle of God's ever
present love and grace. An Angel has been created to
serve, love, hold and support those to who it is
assigned, and those who ask for Angelic support.
An
angel (Lat. angelus, pl. angeli) is a supernatural being
found in many religions. In Christianity, Islam,
Judaism, and Zoroastrianism, angels, as attendants or
guardians to man, typically act as messengers from
God. Angelology
(from Greek: aγγελος, angel, "angel"; and λόγος, logos,
"study") is a branch of theology that deals with a
hierarchical system of angels, messengers, celestial
powers or emanations, and the study of these systems.
- Where
and how can you act as a messenger to someone else
today?
- What
will be your message?
- How
does yoga help you to be closer to the angelic realm
and how does yoga help you to become that
messenger?
- What
yoga practices help you to be that
messenger?
- Which
yoga asana do you relate mostly to the angelic
realm?
- Which
plant do you relate most to the angelic
realm?
- What
scent, mantra or sound transports you to this angelic
realm?
- Which
place on earth would you most like to be to feel this
angelic connection?
- How can
you deepen the connection to your guardian
angel?
I will be bringing
essential oils like angelica root, frankincense, elemi
and others to class that are said to contain the highest
vibration of the plant spirit essences. You will be able
to combine your yoga practice with these angelic
essences.
Much has been
written in poems and music about angels and we call them
all different names and see them in various creations of
art. You can check out Doreen
Virtue's angels cards and books, which are a
beautiful inspirations to connect yourself further with
the realm of these divine messengers. If you have a
personal story, I would love to hear about it.
Be
an angel to someone today!

favorite movies from Wim Winders: "Wings of desire",

What are
chakras?

Chakras are psychic centers that lie along the
axis of the spine as consciousness potentials. The
chakras are not materially real and are to be understood
as situated, not in the gross body, but in the subtle or
etheric body. Repositories of psychic energies, they
govern the whole condition of being. In the Hindy
tradition they are usually represented as
lotuses.
As kundalini energy reaches each chakra,
that lotus opens and lift its flower; and as soon as she
leaves for a higher chakra, the lotus closes its petals
and hangs down, symbolizing the activation of the
energies of the chakra and their assimilation to
kundalini.
Each of the chakras, according to the
Tantras, corresponds to one of the elements of which the
known world is compounded. Muladhara represents
solidity; Svadhisthana, liquidity; Manipura, the
gaseous; Anahata, the aerial; Vishuddha, the etheric, or
space.
This ascent through the chakras can be
viewed as an upward journey through the
self.
