I asked Spirit for help ...

I was really struggling spiritually and emotionally last week. It was as if a gray cloud of despair leached on to me and swallowed my joy. I could equate it to a sports injury and too much time on social media, but honestly, there was no huge logical reason for this depression. The hopeless feeling elevated to meltdown status as I drove to Kohls alone. Out loud, I begged my Spirit Guides to help lift my mood and bring me out of this funk... and it worked! I get nudges from Spirit regularly, but this time they took it up a notch and I am so excited to share it with you:

I stifled my tears as I pulled up to Kohls. I figured I could run right to the kid section, grab something from the Spider Man shelf and whiz through the checkout without crying. When the delightful cashier helped me with all the Kohls discounts and then she announced the final total, $22.21, I had to fight back happy tears. I felt one of my Spirit Guides approach my right side as feelings of pure hope and love washed over me. (*see note about Angel Numbers -222, 333, etc., below)

The next day a hummingbird started landing on the string of outdoor lights above our kitchen door. After multiple sightings in one day, we realized that she was building a nest on top of one of the lights! To me, this was magical! My mood instantly did a 180 as gratitude filled my heart!

Today, the nest is complete and mama hummingbird is spending plenty of time just nestled right by our kitchen. (Shown in cover photo) It's fun to see her up close and still - not the typical speedy blur of a tiny bird. Now when I walk into my kitchen filled with dirty dishes, Mama hummingbird is such a sweet symbol of hope and encouragement for me.

I've been told that as we progress on our spiritual paths, significant transformative steps can be tough and uncomfortable, but the outcomes are life changing. I believe mama hummingbird was a direct gift from my guides encouraging me to keep seeking and to remind me that love and creation will always prevail over darkness.

I am so glad I asked my Spirit Guides for help that day. Not only was I able to move forward feeling much lighter, but they also gave me a perfect example to share of how to work with your Spirit Guides. I hope the products in my shop can bring a similar comfort to those having difficult times.

Shine bright, my friends!

*Angel number side note:

Like many seekers and light workers, I see angel numbers like this all the time. 444 was all I saw right after I got laid off- perfectly aligning to "peace through transformation." 222 and 333 are the ones I see consistently now- bringing the message of comfort that my Spirit Guides are with me and I am on the right path to fulfill the divine design of my life's plan. Pay attention to these types of synchronicities and know that they are messages from spirit. They are able to "nudge" you to look at the clock right at 3:33 pm. They are able to twist some numbers for the total bill to be $22.21. Call them Angels or Spirit Guides - they are with us - we just have to ask and receive.
