A colleague of mine has this great love affair with new age philosophy. She has a very strong belief that our energy and thoughts manifest themselves into our reality, hence happier thoughts create a happier life! I am certainly not one to dispute this! Obviously though, coming from a more religious stand point, I don’t believe this in the same way. Then again, maybe it is all the same at the end of the day but either way, I enjoy hearing her talk about it and practice it.
One day she brought to work a stack of “Oracle Angel Cards”; it’s a box of 100 cards that you shuffle in your hands and, word has it, that as you shuffle them, your energy fuses the cards. After you’ve shuffled them, you’re supposed to pick a card from the deck and whatever card you pull is suppose to provide you with the necessary wisdom that you need at that time. Since their arrival in our office, they have become part of our morning routine! We all gather around her desk, coffees in hand, chat about our evening and take turns pulling our angel card!
I have to admit that the cards I tend to pull usually seem to have a rather unnerving relevance to my life at the time and there are moments in which I scrunch up my face and think to myself “stupid angels…think they know everything!” but surely enough, I keep coming back for more!
I spent this past weekend taking a mental vacation from all things work related; I slept in, took lots of naps, had lunch out, went to the movies, did some Christmas shopping and over all, just spent some good quality time not working. Starting a new business hasn’t left me much free time over the past eight months so it was a welcome reprieve from the routine that has developed over the course of this year. And after having made some pretty heavy decisions regarding my future… “checking out” for the weekend was just what the doctor ordered!
It’s intriguing being at such a crossroad in my life; leaving one career path behind in exchange for another…and it feels strange…and exciting…and scary…and, at times, downright crazy! I’m leaving the life that I’ve always known behind for one that I’ve always dreamed of and hoped for and it’s really easy to ask yourself if you’re making the right decision. I know that I am, but it doesn’t stop the question from rearing its ugly head every now and then!
That’s why I was quite relieved that after having spent much too long knee deep in decision making, I ended up pulling the following card this morning:

Change in Direction
The changes you’re experiencing are Divinely directed by your newborn willingness to open your heart to love and our guidance. You are protected now and in the future, so follow your path to the happy outcomes your desire.
This card signifies that you’ve had a change of heart that has altered the direction of your life in a positive way. Your old ways of living no longer interest you, and you find yourself avoiding friends and pastimes that previously attracted you. You desire a lifestyle and career that will better fit your new interests and passions. The angels are guiding you through this time of transition. The Law of Attraction insures that you’ll manifest wonderful new opportunities and relationships.
Additional meanings for this card: You’re starting a new phase of your life ~ The birth of a new projects is in the works ~ Pregnancy, birth, or the adoption of a child is possible ~ A new element in your life is a blessing, even if it doesn’t make sense right now.

Now, if only Oracle cards were legally binding in the province of Ontario!!!
