Saying "YES"


At the beginning of Advent in 2015, we here in North America switched from the word “Yea” to “Yes” during our Sunday services.
To me, this is a much more powerful affirmative.
Eleven years ago, I said yes and became a board member for our church here in Vancouver. It profoundly changed my life for the better over the ensuing years. This is the power of Yes.
I believe that our angels and spiritual guides can only help us when we are able to be open. To say yes, is to open up untold worlds of possibilities and pathways. Some people also call it Faith, or the power of positivity.
There were times when I was confronted by obstacles and had no idea how they would be overcome. Amazingly, someone always appeared that could help, or circumstances changed in such a way that the obstacles melted away.
In a small way, it also relates to the theme of this year’s 2016 Chinese New Year – the year of the Red Fire Monkey. Both the colour red and the element of fire represent passion. In the Act of Consecration we hear the words, “the fire of Love, creative of Being.”
Monkeys are curious, enviably flexible, swift, nurturing, and intelligent, with a huge capacity for learning. If they see something they want, they will figure out a way to achieve it. They have a very interesting group soul. A study found that where an isolated group of monkeys learned a particular way of doing something new, other groups of monkeys were soon found to be doing the same thing, even though there was no contact between the groups.
This year I encourage everyone to be open to the power of Yes, and be prepared for something unimaginably wonderful to happen.

Oh, and if a priest approaches you with a QUEST (ion), keep in mind Who it is they are asking on behalf of. This year, anything and everything can be possible!
Don't believe me? Check out my friend Stephanie Georgieff's website: The Heart of the Black Madonna. After more than 10 years of working, studying, travelling, writing and untold personal travails, her book will finally be published this Spring!
