"We Are Spiritual Beings Having a Human Experience"

" Friends are quiet angels who lift us to our feet, when our wings have trouble remembering how to fly"

Angels 
Angels are the guardians of hope and wonder,
the keepers of magic and dreams.
 
Angels watch over you where ever you go,
keeping each day perfect
and promising a bright new tomorrow.
 
Wherever there is love,
an angel is flying by.
 
Your guardian angel knows you inside and out
and loves you just the way you are.
 
Angels keep it simple and always travel light.
Remember to leave space in your relationships
so the angels have room to play.
 
Your guardian angel helps you find a place
when you feel there is no place to go.
 
Whenever you feel lonely,
a special angel drops in for tea.
 
Angels are with you every step of the way
and help you soar with amazing grace.
 
After all, we are angels in training;
all we have to do is spread our wings and fly.

  Message from Archangel Michael  ~ Please use your  discernment and filter what we say through your own heart knowing. Through Kari Chapman.

The energies of 2008 and what you can expect:  

Namaste Dear Ones, We do understand how difficult  the last 2 years have been for many of you.  Know that this too has given you the experiences to be where you are today. All is in Divine Order. The many challenges that you have worked through has brought about great soul growth. And you MADE IT ! Congratulation !  :-)  Welcome to the Future year of 2008. A year of great joy, abundance and a year of one of the greatest shifts in Human Consciousness.

We want to talk a little about the last 2 years and how those years play a role today and in the near future of 2008. It TRULY is about the journey :-) The experiences you learn from the journey, gives you greater soul awareness thus self awareness. You are now ready for your next step. All these experiences, knowledge and wisdom will come into play in 2008. Your needed NOW ! For those who are not awakened or those who refuse to get in alignment with the souls purpose or the Divine Will of God for Earth and the Evolution WILL experience an awakening  in 2008. A few years back we spoke of this transformation that is now taking place. So, what does this mean ? Well, it means that those who are not in alignment will be brought experiences to get them in alignment. Many may need to experience an illness, disease, accident, another words the 2x4 to wake them up. Many will not understand what is going on and why. Many will seem to go into shock or even seem to become psychotic. This is where all of you will be needed. To help them through their awakening and transition, and what a better healer or teacher then one who has been through it ! :-) You will be hearing from old friends and family members who will now seek you out for help. Be there for them, after all, is this not what you have studied and trained for all your life ? YES :-)  

Many will not want to make this shift into the higher vibrations. There will be many exits in 2008 and 2009 and Mass Exits. Please know that this too is in Divine Order, it is their choice. Due to this factor please stay in constant communication with your soul for you will not end up in the wrong place at the wrong time due to you not asking your soul if you are being energetically supported to be somewhere. See, if your in constant contact with your soul, you will all-ways be in the Right place and at the Right time. This is qualifying your precious energy and not expending it where it should not be, to prevent you from being over tired and overwhelmed. There will be an enormous amount of Walk-Ins taking place in 2008 and 2009. For information on this process click here: http://www.namaste-wi.com/walk-in.htm

2008 will be about GREAT abundance for those who understand and apply the Law of Attraction. We see the economy and real-estate  making a very positive shift directly after the election in November 2008 and peaking between February through April of 2009. You can have your true hearts desire. We see many moving locations to be more in alignment with the souls purpose and create more eco friendly homes and healing centers. Nothing to fear at all Dear Ones, you are creating another wonderful higher vibratory comfort zone :-). You are now moving into the energies of the Greatest Good for the Greatest Number, which is more of a collective energy. You will become more aware of The Law Of One, and the councils of the Law Of One, which is a group mind or group consciousness within the Great White Brotherhood. It IS who you are. Many of you are a part of these councils. Many souls are now experiencing a rapid shift into Multi-Dimensional Awareness. You will have one foot or part of your consciousness on earth and another part in the higher dimensions, so to speak  Sometimes this process can be difficult on the physical body as the body gets used to the higher energies. These higher vibrations are coming through your body to be anchored in earth and for others to receive, THANK YOU for being the instrument or conduit. 

Those who are experiencing their awakening will be experiencing Kundalini activation ( spontaneous spiritual awakening and enlightenment ).This will be a year that many Soul Groups will be coming together to do GREATER energy work as a unit or collective and for the collective, as one, one for the greatest good. Seek out others of like mind and soul, now more then ever we need you to Show Up. Spontaneity will be a virtue.  We have a few suggestions that can help you with all these shifts; stay grounded and in the present moment, in the NOW, try not to resist that which is inevitable, pray for grace and clarity, get plenty of rest and water, spend as much time as you can out doors in nature, the elementals will help you and give thanks for this glorious time in Human Consciousness and by all means please continue your daily Meditations and Prayer work for these are your building blocks. We have noticed with our channel Kari and her animals that the animal kingdom is really aware of this shift taking place now and are so willing to help.

All of this will be building in energy with unlimited and infinite possibilities for manifestation at a high point between 8-8-08 through 8-17-08. It will all come together in prefect Divine Order. This is a triple Infinity. Abundance and perfect alignment with the souls purpose, this will continue until 9-9-09 at which the majority of you will have completed that alignment and will be manifesting at that desired level ! During this process many will receive Soul Merges. The higher aspects of you will be merging with your consciousness and physical body. Many veils will be removed which leads to the awareness of more spiritual gifts. Many will be ready and have agreed to be a Composite Entity or Composite Soul. It is different then a soul merge. A soul merge is when you merge with only YOUR aspect of your soul. A composite is one who merges with consciousness outside of the oversoul or higher self or even outside earths universe and galaxies. Example: a person may carry the consciousness of Venus and Sirian or a composite of Lyra, Saturn and Mars. One needs to be very grounded in who you are and have a very stabilized emotional body. If you feel this may be happening to you, always ask your soul for clarity and guidance or who to seek out that may be able to help you.

And this brings us to the emotional body. If you are willing to connect your human heart with that of your high heart or Christ Soul heart, you can learn how to process emotions through the high heart. It is less emotional to process through the high heart then that of the  human heart. It is not to the highest good for anyone to be empathic. Why, well one, it could kill you for taking on another's illness or disease and second you are taking on another's life lesson, one they have chosen for soul growth. That in itself is breaking Spiritual Law and Protocol.

How very exciting, is it not ? The times of great change on earth, decision making, soul purpose and dedication in helping earth and all species of life on the earth to evolve.. The Evolution is here and in a big way for 2008 and 2009. ! Great angelic communication is available for all who seek it. Time is greatly speeding up. All though your clocks are registering a 24 hour time frame in actuality it is only 13, yet you are still producing that of a 24 hour time frame. This too can explain why many are seemingly always tired. Once you learn how to qualify your energy  you wont be so tired

Please remember Dear Beloveds, when you first wake up in the morning,  at that EXACT moment, you have a conscious choice to have a great day, a day filled with joy, love, compassion, forgiveness, abundance and good health or you can choose to have a day absent from love. It IS your choice and it CAN be that simple. How are you going to choose ? We have the faith in you to choose your words and thoughts wisely ! :-) Remember you are never along, we are always with you, you are doing such great work in healing self and helping others to understand and heal, thus bringing Heaven on Earth and Within all things, which is the Divine Will of God/ Creator. You are so very loved by so many, Welcome Home my Beloveds.

Before we end our communication we would like to briefly touch on a subject that our channel Kari did not want to bring through, so we thank her for her willingness to do so :-) Many have been asking for our opinion on the upcoming Presidential Election. We feel that this will be a very close election, people TRULY see the importance of their decisions and at this time, and in the NOW, many things could still shift before the actual election. It is not set in stone, so to speak. We do see a democrat winning. We think you all will be surprised with the results ! :-)  We do however strongly see that who ever is to be president will be a Walk-in ! 

Thank you for having  the strength and courage to be YOU and helping us to Bring Heaven On Earth ! Many BLESSINGS to you all, We love you, All our Beloved Children of God, I Am Arch Angel Michael. 

Namaste,
We have had a very good response from our message sent out from AA Michael and many asking for more information on my book, Going Home: Assisting loved ones and animals to the other side. So, we decided to send out another message with all the data. Enjoy Love kari

After my daughter Holli's death, and returning home from California, we shared how I was able to assist her home, then a few short months later my best friend Inue, my dog made her transition along with Blizzard my cat. I received MANY emails asking if we could write a book on how to do this for others can do it too.
 I was being energetically supported to write this book from my soul and spirit, I started it and got about 60 % of it done and then I hit a block. For some reason I just stopped, it felt as if something was missing and I just couldn't put my finger on WHAT it was.

 After talking to a dear friend of mine in Co. I decided to contact Holli on the other side on Christmas day and through this contact I realized that she would be helping me finish the book :-) and this totally resonated and Im back on track now :-) Inue my dog will be helping from the other side too :-)

The beauty of this book is, is that it is NOT about any specific Religion or Faith. It transcends all Religions and Faiths. This is a book for ALL to be able to help people and animals through their transition to the other side. We will all be doing this some time in our life span here on earth. Through my experiences helping others to the other side, it is to me, one of the most rewarding and fulfilling gifts that we do :-)

We share how I came about re-learning this through and with ArchAngel Michael since 11-11-1995. It has truly been a very NATURAL part of my life, almost like I have been doing it since the beginning of time. Anyway, we will give the protocol on how YOU can do this too. We also cover how to assist Earth Bound spirits home, how you can help AA Michael and the Band of Mercy with exorcisms and how to identify and remove attachments from people and animals.

The first 144 copies sold, ArchAngel Michael will be writing a message to each person specifically or whom ever you are purchasing it for, and they will be numbered and autographed by me. The FIRST copies will be mailed out on March 6 2008, my daughter Holli's  birthday. $20 and $5 for  S and H.
Namaste'

~ FAITH ~  Faith is the force of life.

Do I get anxious at sunrise because all I can see is the tiny rim of the sun ? No, because I know that if I wait long enough, I will see the sun in all its brilliance. The same is true of Gods plan for my life. I will never see everything in advance, but if I wait long enough, God always reveals his will. With each sunrise, We start anew.

Prayer for invoking Archangel Michael and Lady FaithKari Chapman

  Through the authority vested in me by the Cosmic Christ Consciousness or the Mighty I AM Presence, I consciously call forth to the energy of Archangel Michael and Lady Faith. I ask that you be present and receptive to me now. I ask for divine intervention for ______________________ (list any situation that you need intervention for). I ask that this situation be resolved through love, forgiveness, compassion and GRACE. I ask for the will, strength, courage and faith to be who I AM at all times and to do what I came to earth to do. With your blazing Blue Sword I ask that you cut away all illusions, veils, falsehoods, and fears, That I may be guided by the pure love of God/ Creator's will. I see and know this as already done, and I thank you. So be it, so it has been accepted. I now accept this or something better through the Grace of God and to the highest good of all concerned. I thank you ( 3 times) Amen ( 3 times )

Kari's re-uniting with Archangel Michael My first Conscious Contact with Archangel Michael

November 11~ 1995 ~ It was during a time of great change in my life. I knew in the very depths of my heart and soul that my life was about to drastically change and that there would be no turning back.

I had just been introduced to a Walk-In organization from the MN area and went to one of their conferences. I learned much on the Walk-In phenomena, at which some has helped me greatly and yet there were many things that were not being talked about. Was I the only one who had different experiences ? Different truths and beliefs ? Needless to say, I still had many questions that no one seemed to be talking about. After time, a year or so, I realized that I would need to go to my soul to get some answers. After All, How come I remember ? I came here consciously knowing the soul transfer was about to take place. Realizing from the very beginning that no one had seen or heard of a " conscious " Walk-In. I guess it was rare. To me it was a very " normal " thing to do :-)

What this is all leading up to is/ was my need to take my questions to my soul and spirit directly. Much of my present time learning and studies have been with spirit and the masters directly and consciously. I had been praying 2 and 3 hours a day, not to anyone specifically, but with God/ Creator and all my master guides, teachers and angels. I asked for direct conscious communication in a way that my logical mind would know and understand.

On November 11-1995 I woke up and in the door way of my bedroom I seen a symbol or what seemed at the time to be very similar to a child's mobile that hangs over a crib. I could " FEEL " a wonderful energy and presence around the symbol. I immediately drew the symbol on paper and my soul told me it was a "sigil" and to look the symbol up in a book that has information about Angels. The only one I had at the time was from Ted Andrews. And sure enough I found a chapter on the Archangels and their "sigils" . Each Archangel has a sigil. Archangel Michael's sigil is the EXACT one I seen and drew. So, I went upstairs to my bedroom to go into meditation and ask AA Michael directly if this was his symbol . As I was meditating I look at the door way again where I had previously seen the sigil, and there stood AA Michael, Boy was he beautiful. He appeared in blue and white clothing with a full wing spread and very tall. He appeared to me in a way that I could receive him :-) Archangel Michael nor I spoke a word audible, Yet I knew without a doubt what was being said. " It is time for you to help the prior soul home and for you to come into this body completely, it is NOW time for you to get started on your soul contract. I co-existed with the prior soul for years, not knowing at the time that the previous soul would eventually go home. AA Michael continued saying " the karmic contract of the prior soul was now complete and in a very good way". To this day I have no idea why AA Michael first came to me through his sigil and not appearing to me.

All of this resonated at a very deep level in my heart. It just "felt " right. I asked AA Michael " How do we do this ? He said " we will call forth to your Oversoul to assist you completely in the physical body and I will assist the prior soul home. Would you start with prayer and your true hearts intention ? and I said Yes". I lit a white candle and started burning some sage as I started saying some prayers, I gave permission as did the prior soul for the transfer to take place and with grace, I gave my many thanks to the prior soul for a job well done and for the precious physical body. I experienced a lot of grief and a sense of loss.

Archangel Michael took her hand and led her away, while at the exact same moment I came fully into the physical body, grounding and integrating my energies into the physical body. I was in an altered state of being for 3 days, at which time AA Michael was by my side constantly, as if he were a part of me and me him, all along journaling my experiences. On the fourth day he told me that he would be consciously and directly working with me and on a daily basis. I chose not to share this information, as I needed to know for sure that I was not imagining it and it was not coming from my ego, 3 years later I started to share that I work with AA Michael. He stated that I need to now learn what is required of me to work with his consciousness. There was much I needed to know and understand in this 3 rd Dimension of Earth. Over the next 2 years I worked very closely with AA Michael, learning all that I could. 

Since this day November 11-1995 I have been consciously working with AA Michael on a daily basis, it has become first nature for me. AA Michael and I assist many walk-ins home and I travel the country, as it is suggested from AA Michael, to clear areas energetically and then to consecrate an area. A few years ago, AA Michael asked me to start bringing through his messages for all, and I do this through our newsletters and our web site.

Many people and friends have said over and over, that I seem to have an unshakable faith and that I should own a tee-shirt that says " Fearless". AA Michael is one of the greatest beings to work with. Gentle and yet stern are his teachings, full of GREAT LOVE, Great Strength and Great Courage. From this moment on, I have had very little fear of anything, truly KNOWING that I was always protected, and yet very discerning on what is mine to do and help with, always by my side is AA Michael and his legions of Angels. I am so grateful.

In 2000 I was asked by AA Michael to consider bringing through his complement energy, which is Lady Faith and I agreed too.  I now carry within my DNA/cellular body and energy signature both AA Michael and Lady Faith's energy. Faith energy is about having faith and  the Divine Feminine. Archangel Michael works with Lady Faith, as power works with faith. Power is the will behind all action. Faith is the ability to KNOW that your needs WILL be manifested. Her female energy is the power of the Earth, or the material world. Without Faith, action would be impossible. Faith energy materializes the Archangel's creation. A profound balance I must say, what an honor. Kari

The Master  ( King ) Zhoser  ( Zoser ) 

The Master Zhoser is the master physician for the new millennium. About two years ago Master Zhoser came through during one of my Reiki sessions . It had a profound effect on me. I felt a very large presence behind me. I knew it was the vibration of the Cosmic Christ Consciousness, so I asked who are you ? This presence replied with "I AM Zhoser" . I immediately got a beautiful image of this wonderful being, very large in size and in full Egyptian dress, headpiece and all. He made no attempt to hide his presence at all. I feel that he really wanted me to KNOW that he was present. I had read about the Master Zhoser in the Astara's Book of Life, First Degree ( or lessons ).  

After this experience I decided to do some  more research and see what I could come up with. I found 3 books in our library , here at Namaste, that had information about King Zhoser. Astara's Book of Life: The Master Zhoser was a pharaoh in the third dynasty of ancient Egypt, and it was during his reign that the supposed first pyramid was constructed---the Step Pyramid at Sakkara , which was designed to rest upon the ley lines, or electrical grid points, of the planet,---which may be the oldest building on earth today. The Step Pyramid was used as a temple of initiation in the Mysteries and Zhoser  himself was hierophant of the temple. The name Zhoser was given to him at birth. It means "the Holy", for his birth had been prophesied by the seers of his day. During his first initiation a new name was added to that of Zhoser. It was Neterkeht...which means "God in flesh". His hands are like highly charged magnets. A flow of power passes from him into the disciple who prays for his healing help. This is the wondrous healing power which he possesses and for which he has become so noted.

In the book: Initiation in the Great Pyramid, by Earlyne Chaney. $15.00.  It states that the Master Zhoser's birth fulfilled the prophecy of a coming avatar. Born with the mystical veil or caul of divinity over his face. This type of veil has nothing to do with a normal birth. I too ( Kari ) was born with this Veil or Caul over my face on Thanksgiving Day.

 The Birth Veil or Caul: From the book : Born With A Veil. 

"There are many ancient tales about the veil or caul: When a mystical individual  is ready for higher  experiences , one of these veils is lifted in order to allow the mortal freedom to delve deeper into the secret chambers of the subconscious, to open  certain secret doors where the masters  of light reside, thereby  enabling the individual  to obtain  wisdom  from the soul teachers.  When  we are ready  to be initiated , then we are given various  problems  that can  sometimes  be most difficult.  How we handle  these problems is important, as it tells the inner teachers whether we have learned  our lessons or failed to conquer them ".

Joshua David Stone also speaks of the master Zhoser in his book: Hidden Mysteries, ETs, Ancient Mystery Schools and Ascension. $15.00. The connections with the Anunnaki and the Ark of the Covenant, the Great Pyramid of Giza, and a remnant island once called Aztlan (Atlantis).

Less then 3 miles from us here at Namaste, is Aztalan state park, which is full of ceremonial mounds and history. In fact, we have a pyramidal configuration of three vortexes that consists of Aztalan, Rock Lake and Namaste. It was in my soul contract, that I would move to this area and be the third vortex and to help stabilize the other two. And this has been done, I Am here. I think many of you might see that there is a connection here :-). We highly suggest reading the books listed above. I have been a member of the Astara Mystery School since 1996 and recommend it to all. The Master Zhoser was present at my Reiki Masters Attunement, and now overlights my healing sessions.

" I own that I have  an immoveable faith in God and His goodness, and an inconsumable passion for truth and love. But, is that not what every person has latent in him ? If we could erase the " I's " and " mine's " from religion, politics, economics, etc., we would soon be free and bring heaven on earth. What is Truth ? A difficult question; but I have solved it for myself by saying that it is what the " voice within " tells you. There is only life where there is love. Life without love is death. It is my firm faith that we can conquer the whole world by truth and love".   Gandhi, Apostle of Peace.

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.

Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.

It is our Light, not our Darkness, that most frightens us.

We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous ?

Actually, who are you NOT to be ?

You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world.

There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.

We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.

It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone.

And as we let our own Light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.

As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

Do It Anyway------ written by Mother Teresa

People are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered; Forgive them anyway.

If you are kind, People may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; Be kind anyway.

If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies; Succeed anyway.

If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you; Be honest and frank anyway.

What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight; Build anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous; Be happy anyway.

The good that you do today, people will often forget tomorrow; Do good anyway.

Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough; Give the world the best you've got anyway.

You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God; It was never between you and them anyway.

____________________________________________________________________

I thank the Universal Spirit of all that is for this day and I choose to see only light, love and innocence within myself and others.

I invite the presence of that spirit into every situation.

I choose to be all that I AM and to know that it is safe to honor and cherish my true identity.

I AM a spiritual being in a physical body.

I AM love, loved, loving and lovable.

I AM a beautiful, desirable and empowered person.

I know that true prosperity is perfect health, wealth and happiness.

I accept that spirit is the source of all supply and that money is spirit in action.

Love is flowing from me and to me so richly and so fully that I have abundance, prosperity and affluence to share and to spare today and always.

My body regenerates itself and I emanate perfect health.

I AM breathing fully and vibrantly today and always.

I choose to give up difficulty and to be a living example of human potential.

These words I speak in faith and they activate a law of Universal good and I accept and share the results.

I AM grateful for these blessings, for the increase in them and for all others knowing that we prosper together in every way.

I AM rich in my heart, I AM rich in my soul, I AM rich in my life, I AM rich and I AM whole.

Thank you spirit for blessings me. ( author unknown)

I LOVE this woman and her teachings ! GREAT words of wisdom we should ALL abide by. Kari

In April, Maya Angelou was interviewed by Oprah on her 70+ birthday.
Oprah asked her what she thought of growing older?
Maya Angelou said this:   

"I've learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today,
 life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow."
 
   "I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights."
 
   "I've learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents,
you'll miss them when they're gone from your life."   
 
"I've learned that making a "living" is not the same thing as "making a life."
 
   "I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance."
  
"I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands;
you need to be able to throw some things back."
 
  "I've learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart,
I usually make the right decision."
 
   "I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one"   
 
"I've learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone.   
People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back."   
 
"I've learned that I still have a lot to learn."   
 
"I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did,
but people will never forget how you made them feel."

The Invitation- You have been invited !

It doesn’t interest me what you do for a living.
I want to know what you ache for and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart’s longing.

It doesn’t interest me how old you are. I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool
for love, for your dream, for the adventure of being alive.

It doesn’t interest me what planets are squaring your moon... I want to know if you have touched the center of  your own sorrow, if you have been opened by life’s betrayals or have become shriveled and closed from fear of further pain. I want to know if you can sit with pain, mine or your own, without moving to hide it or fade it or fix it.

I want to know if you can be with joy mine or your own, if you can dance with wildness and let the ecstasy fill you to the tips of your fingers and toes without cautioning us to be careful, be realistic or remember the limitations of being human.

It doesn’t interest me if the story you are telling me is true. I want to know if you can  disappoint another to be true to yourself. If you can bear the accusation of betrayal and not betray your own soul. If you can be faithful and therefore trustworthy.

I want to know if you can see Beauty even when it is not pretty every day. And if you can source your own life from its presence.

I want to know if you can live with failure yours and mine and still stand at the edge of the lake and shout to the silver of the full moon,    “Yes.”

It doesn’t interest me  to know where you live or how much money you have. I want to know if you can get up after the night of grief and despair, weary and bruised to the bone and do what needs to be done to feed the children.

It doesn’t interest me who you know or how you came to be here. I want to know if you will stand in the center of the fire with me and not shrink back.

It doesn’t interest me where or what or with whom you have studied. I want to know what sustains you from the inside when all else falls away.

I want to know if you can be alone  with yourself and if you truly like the company you keep
in the empty moments.
