I Trust
A Message for All Lightworkers
(excerpted from the book, Angel Medicine by Doreen Virtue)

I have a lot of psychic friends, some famous and some obscure. These friendships have allowed me to investigate the common traits among highly-psychic people. Above everything else, those who are highly-psychic trust in their inner guidance and wisdom. They don't defer to external opinions, but instead listen to their own sense of truth.
I believe that we're all sensitive to the energies around us, and lightworkers (including the new Indigo and Crystal Children) are especially sensitive. Our bodies are exquisite divination tools which sense subtle energies and vibrational changes well before we're conscious of them. Our bodies are like tuning forks that vibrate according to the energies around us.
Yet, so much of my time as a psychic development teacher is spent helping my students to trust their inner messages. They balk, worried whether they're just imagining the message. They're concerned about making a wrong move based upon a faulty hunch.
I counsel my students to affirm repeatedly, "I trust, I trust, I trust" as a way of building faith in their inner guidance.
It doesn't matter whether your guidance comes in the form of feelings, signs, ideas, visions, dreams, or an inner dialogue. What matters is honoring what feels true to you.
Does the idea of making a life change feel exciting to you? Then that's your truth! Does the thought of taking up a new hobby invigorate your soul? Then that's your truth! Does thinking about your dreams manifesting into reality make your heart sing with joy? Then that's your truth!
How many times have we distrusted our gut feelings, only to regret it later? For instance, have you ever met someone and denied your inner warning signals that told you to stay away from the person? And then later thought to yourself, "I knew that this wasn't a good relationship for me!" Or have you ever received a wonderful idea for a new business, product, or book, then talked yourself out of the idea? And then a couple of years later, you find that someone else has successfully taken that idea to fruition?
We've all done this process which I call, "logical override," where we talk ourselves out of following our inner guidance. These are opportunities to learn and grow. Promise yourself that you'll listen to and follow your guidance from now on.
How do you know if it's true or false guidance? True guidance always asks you improve something like your outlook or fitness level. True guidance often asks you to use your natural talents and interests in a way that will help others or the world. True guidance is repetitive, positive, and motivational. It pushes you past your comfort zone, but always in a loving and motivational way.
Your inner guidance is answered prayer. It's your mentor, business partner, and life coach. If you distrust or ignore your inner wisdom, you're delaying the manifestation of answered prayer. Sure, you'll need to take a few risks while you follow this guidance. But rest assured that your angels are with you every step of the way. And they're happy to help you if you'll ask (and then be willing to receive the help as they bring it to you).
The new Indigo children provide wonderful examples of self-trust. Indigos honor their inner feelings in relationships and situations. They respect people who deserve their respect. They're fascinated by fascinating topics. In other words, Indigos don't feign respect or interest. They're genuine and natural. (Of course, that's why they're often mislabeled ADHD).
You'll make a huge contribution toward world peace by learning to trust your inner truth-detector. The sooner that all of us honor our inner truth, the sooner that lies and deception will be a thing of the past. We're all involved in ushering in the new energy, which is based on integrity, compassion, and manifestation. Trusting your gut is a way to bring your personal energy into integrity.
Now, a new study finds that trust can also affect your health. Researchers from Harvard studied over 12,000 people and found that those who agreed with the statement, "People are generally dishonest and selfish and they want to take advantage of others" was a better predictor of early death for men than smoking!
Learning to trust our angels and the Divine light that's within every human helps us all to live happier and healthier lives.
A Message for All Lightworkers
(excerpted from the book, Angel Medicine by Doreen Virtue)
When I was at Stonehenge, I was given this message for all lightworkers:
Reclaim your manifestation and healing powers immediately! Religious practices have discouraged individuals from seeking power by inflicting labels of heresy and treason upon them. The guilt and fear still permeates deep in the subconscious mind. This includes the fear of standing out, of being unique and distinctive. You've associated this attention with being vulnerable, so you sabotage yourselves again and again by not publicly addressing the truths and problems that you see. You rein yourselves in, and only allow so much attention to be cast in your direction before you hide in your protective cloaks.
Pass along this information: Healing energy is freely available to everyone. No one is specially gifted. There are only those who are free to choose to capitalize upon their inner strengths or to shrink from them.
The world is colder and darker each time an individual shudders from the thought of speaking up. Even if your message isn't well received, the properties involved with the message are spread energetically throughout the land for time eternal.
To each and every one of you: Your words, your thoughts, and your feelings are pure poetry. Do not rush to hide or discount them, but instead capitalize on them to make each other stronger. You will energetically evolve at much faster rates through this sharing and swapping of thoughts and ideas, so speak of them openly and comfortably. Do not shy away from public appearances where you tell your stories and give teachings.
Rainbow Children
by Doreen Virtue
In the July 4, 2004 newsletter, I included an excerpt from Angel Medicine about the Angels of Atlantis's message regarding rainbow energy. I'm continuing to receive so much more information about the power of the rainbows. As you may recall, the rainbow colors are in our chakras, in prisms from crystals and water, in Reiki energy, and from dolphins and starpeople. The next generation of psychic and spiritual children are also bringing in the new rainbow energy.
So I found it very interesting to talk with Angel Intuitive Karlene MacDonald when I was in Melbourne. Karlene has taught Kindergarten for 15 years, and she's noticed an interesting phenomena:
"Children used to begin their paintings by making pictures of happy faces or suns," Karlene told me. "But in the past two years, a shift has happened. Now, children begin their paintings by making pictures of rainbows."
Karlene explained that she's noticed a huge shift in the children of the past two years, and that they're talking more about angels and philosophical ideas.
These new children are the scouts and cusps who are starting to bring in the rainbow energy of healing, giving, and miracles. They are akin to the Indigos born pre-1970, and the Crystals who were born in the 1980's. The largest influx of Indigos occurred between 1970 and 1990, and the same is occurring with Crystals now through 2010. At that time, the adult Crystal children will become the parents to the new Rainbows.
Angels in Australia
by Doreen Virtue
Steven and I just returned from three magical weeks in Australia. We flew from Tahiti (where we'd just completed an amazing tour with James Van Praagh) to New Zealand and then on to Sydney. Our Australian workshops had us flying to Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth, Adelaide, and then back to Sydney. That's a lot of travel!
While I was exercising in Perth, I felt my lower back snap out of place. With several workshops and booksigings to go, I knew that back pain wasn't acceptable. I instantly asked Archangels Michael and Raphael for help. Sometimes, when we pray for a healing, the spirit world takes care of the matter directly. Other times, though, they give us Divine guidance and ask us to co-create the healing. And that's what happened to me: I got strong guidance to see a chiropractor as soon as we landed in Adelaide.
I was wary of going to just any chiropractor, and we didn't know anyone in Adelaide who could give us a referral. So, I had to completely rely upon the archangels to steer me in the right direction. I asked them to find a chiropractor who wouldn't x-ray me or require multiple visits (since I was only in town for one day). I asked for a holistic healer who could simply pop my back into place quickly, easily, and painlessly.
So when we arrived in Adelaide, we asked the hotel concierge to book a chiropractor appointment. Several hours later, he said that all the local chiropractors were booked-up for the day. He pointed to a phone book listing for a Kings Road Chiropractic and said, "That's the last one that I haven't yet called." Amazingly, that office had just had a cancellation, so they had one opening for me.
When we arrived at the office, Steven pointed to the name of the chiropractor on the door: "Michael Angeli." Archangel Michael had sent me to his namesake! Dr. Angeli was a gentle, soft-spoken, angelic-looking young man. Without x-raying me, he asked me a lot of questions about my back. Then, he simply and painlessly popped my lower back into place. I was healed in one session, just as I'd prayed for!
My experience was one more reminder that the archangels and ascended masters take care of us, wherever we are in the world. We needn't worry. We only need to listen to, and follow the Divine guidance that they give to us, in answer to our every prayer.

Dr. Doreen Virtue, P.h.D., Spiritual, Clairvoyant Psychologist
|
 |
Dr. Doreen Virtue (yes, that is her real name) is a spiritual clairvoyant psychologist who holds B.A. M.A. and Ph.D. degrees in Counseling Psychology. Dr. Virtue is the author of 22 books on mind-body-spirit issues. Included in this list are such titles as: Healing with the Angels, Divine Guidance, Angel Therapy, The Lightworker's Way and The Yo-Yo Diet Syndrome.
Dr. Virtue is the founder and former director of WomanKind Psychiatric Hospital at Cumberland Hall Hospital in Nashville, Tennessee. She was also an administrator at Woodside Women's Hospital in the San Francisco Bay Area. Both all-women psychiatric hospitals specialized in treating women's psychological issues. Dr. Virtue also directed three outpatient psychiatric centers, including an adolescent drug and alcohol abuse center.
As a child, Doreen was a natural clairvoyant, seeing and conversing with what many people call "invisible friends" (which are really angels and deceased loved ones). But this natural gift and ability was little understood by the young Doreen and her family, and was the cause of teasing by her friends. Consequently, Doreen learned to deny her abilities, effectively shutting them down before she was mature enough to fully appreciate them.
But on July 15, 1995, Doreen's personal life and her career, marked by exemplary but conventional success, would be irrevocably altered by an incident that is nothing short of miraculous. Doreen had been ignoring her angels' guidance to become a teacher of mind-body-spirit issues. So, when an angel warned Doreen that her car was going to be stolen on that fateful July afternoon, Doreen ignored him. After all, her habit of arguing with and ignoring the angels was deeply ingrained by then. Despite this, the angel did not abandon
Doreen in her most dire moment - as she was parking, two armed men, intent on a carjacking, brandished weapons and physically accosted the unsuspecting Doreen. The voice spoke to her again - it was loud, distinctly male and it instructed her to scream with all her might. This time she listened, she screamed, and her life was saved by passersby who became alarmed and sent her attackers running.
Dr. Virtue immediately began a daily rigorous practice of receiving and deciphering her Divine Guidance. Simultaneously, she was reexamining her spiritual beliefs, along with her Western psychological beliefs, the end result being twofold: Dr. Virtue was guided to look at psychology from a whole new perspective, and her natural clairvoyance rapidly returned with the same clarity and strength of her childhood experiences.
Dr. Virtue's practice then naturally evolved into "Angel Therapy," in which she combines her skills as a psychologist with her spiritual abilities. Dr. Virtue's belief is simple; everyone is born with some form or forms of psychic abilities - in other words, a sixth sense. This ability, or abilities - like all other God-given abilities, needs to be nurtured and exercised to maximize it's strengths. Dr. Virtue cites over 300 scientific studies from Harvard, Cornell, and other leading universities supporting her beliefs in people's natural psychic abilities and in the power of prayer in healing.
Dr. Virtue currently lectures and gives experiential workshops on spiritual psychological issues worldwide. Doreen's topics include: angel therapy, angel communication, spiritual healing, mediumship, reincarnation, channeling, and other spiritual topics. Many of her students are medical and psychological professionals, including M.D.'s, R.N.'s, psychologists, and social workers.
Dr. Virtue's national media includes: Oprah, CNN, Good Morning America, The View with Barbara Walters, Donny & Marie, Roseanne, and other national programs. National print media includes: Redbook, Woman's Day, and USA Today.
