The Three R's: Respect for self; Respect for others; and Responsibility for all your actions.

" 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.

We Are Each Angels With One Wing, The Only Way We Can Fly Is By Putting Our Arms Around Each Other !

The Essence of Today: "I shall pass through this world but once. Any good that I can do, or any kindness that I can show any human being, let me do it now, for I shall not pass this way again"

"And 144,000 Light Warriors with their shields balanced, respecting all paths as leading to One,

shall come to the planet in her time of greatest need and teach the teachers." Hopi Legend

Concentrate on this Sentence

'To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did.' When God takes something from your grasp, He's not punishing you, but merely opening your hands to receive something better. Concentrate on this sentence... 'The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.'

There are 3 types of people ? those that make things happen, those that watch things happen and those that wonder what the heck happened. Which Type Are You?

July 21-2010 : During meditation I received that we needed to bring a Divine Equation through, requested through Archangel Michael and Metatron that would not only help humanity, mother earth, but, all species of life through these times of increased vibrations and frequencies but also, the Gulf situation. These equations many of you may remember ( we have used them in EVERY place we have gone to do our energy work ) , and I must say this one is AMAZING ! For myself and those who I have worked with, we have seen and experienced amazing results. One of those experiences are below.
We are sharing this with all who resonate with it. The frequencies will align with the New Jerusalem which at this time is tethered/ stationed over the golf. When we align with these frequencies and recite them, it will allow co-creation with our Oversouls/Higher Self and the Spiritual Hierarchy and Angels to anchor in these frequencies of grace and knowingness through us. It will allow all those involved with the Oil Spill to not only find the solutions but, to use them and will work with the Whales, Dolphins and Elementals to help calm the gas being released and the instability within the earth along the entire Ring of Fire. The Equation will help all species to calmly and gracefully integrate with the higher frequencies and vibrations that are now coming into the planet. And will help GREATLY with the purging we are all going through including our Animal Kingdom.
Thank You so very very much Theresa ( Yolanda ) for bringing this Divine Equation through for us all. Thank You !

Divine Equation ~ Activation Harmonically recite the equation

These equations are to be energetically experienced. The equations are a way to engage with the light language, directly and symbolically. If you think of numbers and letters as archetypes and the fountain of the archetypes is the 8^th charka then it is a way to connect to Angelic and Stellar language. It bypasses the mental body’s need to know. The Angelic language through letters/ numbers helps one become aware of non-truths and eventually whole divine concepts are received into the body’s intelligence centers. The alpha-numerics are transmitted in harmonic sequence that have a definite rhythm. It’s like allowing the creation of space and time through harmonic sets applied to the letters. Numbers that creates the geometry that directly affects/ effects your merkaba configurations, that are then infused into the charka energy systems of the physical bodies and in some cases there is DIRECT cell interface. It is according to each individuals push- pull, pulse- tone, accept- resist to the shifts in spin ratios to addressed fear based models that depend on a persons reaction- reception to the light and also the ratio of the bodies that has converted to crystalline matrix. When certain calibrations are locked on, they allow access to many keys and encodings.
With your left hand over Archangel Metatron's Universal Merkaba symbol, Recite the Divine Equation and BREATHE. And allow the Divine Equation activation to take place.

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

UPDATE: Message on the Oil Spill from Archangel Michael : Namaste Dear Ones, As tragic as it is in the Gulf with the oil spill, please know this to is in divine order. What has occurred is what was needed and is a way to FORCE alternative energy. Pray that the leaders and BP will find ( and use ) solutions to natural energy, and how to best fix the current situation. Please consider doing the 14 day letter writing for this situation, it will greatly help as well as all your prayers and ceremonies. Please continue to BE the Love and Light that the leaders in all world situations need at this time. Consciously work with your Dolphin and Whale families. They will bring you the sounds and communication to help ALL life affected from this event and to help stabilize the earth and gasses be released. Try and be in a neutral energy, which is stable and grounded. The Earth and all living things are going through a purging, you will get through this, pray for GRACE and with new alternative energy that is not harmful to the earth and all living entities. Interestingly we do see BP and the government coming around and supporting the alternative energy in the very near future, don't give up now, have FAITH. The Angels are working constantly with many to bring through these new formulas. Thank You for BEING who you are, Love and Many Angel Blessings My Beloveds I AM Archangel Michael.

What a wonderful time and difficult time it is on Earth and in Human Consciousness, is it not ? The Enthusiasm and Hope for better times ahead is immanent ! What a view from up here. We are all amazed at how much the human consciousness and all life has developed and evolved over the last year. NEVER has such a leap in consciousness been done in the history of Human Consciousness on Earth ! The awareness of each individual on earth has drastically been heightened ! Many are having a difficult time, please know that if you make the needed connection with your Oversoul/ Higher Self they can help you through this difficult time. This is a VITAL missing link with many.

We are so very proud of ALL of you ! As ONE ! Humanities Consciousness has shifted, this is what you are experiencing. Nothing and no one can hold you back now. Unless you allow it.

Monitoring your thoughts and intentions will help shift the negative and difficulty to positive actions. There has been a veil of illusion that was lifted off of the Earth and all inhabitants on the Earth. Much like an onion when peeled, a layer comes off. A layer or veil was removed from the Mother Earth and ALL Mankind. Every man, woman, child, plant, animal and mineral experienced this. So, what does this mean ?
Your gifts and abilities may be greatly heightened. New gifts are coming forward. Your memories are coming back, you will be more conscious of everything around you. Many of you are experiencing extreme sensitivity and vulnerability. This will ease as you integrate more and process the experience. You need to be very grounded at this time.

The veils between you, earth and the higher dimensions, the spirit world are very thin. This is also what many are experiencing as BLISS. Breathe Dear Ones. The very thought forms and impressions of humanity have shifted.
Communicate daily with your Oversouls/ Higher Self, ask your soul for knowingness and continue to BE. Your Conscious participation is expected, needed and required at this time.

"BE the change that you want to see in the world" Gandhi. Consciously Be Hope, Be Peace, Be Love, Be Prosperity. You are a child of God/Creator, BE !
In the very near future your scientist will be able to measure this energy shift around the earth. Through the magnetic energy girds.

A new Paradigm has been ushered in, do not doubt this. It is necessary for The New Earth. ! Sometimes when order or spiritual law is introduced, you will get dis-order or chaos. All the old thoughts need to come to the surface to be healed and transmuted. You will get through this. TOGETHER, Only together. Grace is a wonderful attribute is it not ? As you integrate and process these new energies, things will settle down and will become more balanced. Always ask your soul for advice and clarity. Be in the absolute Present Time, the NOW, for truly this is all that exists. It is very important at this time to continue to stay in the NOW ! And pray for a Graceful transformation.

Your continued daily meditations are very important right now. Pray that the word leaders will find Solutions. Your meditations will help you to stay grounded and in a state of gratitude and peace. We ask that you please be willing to come together weekly or once a month as a group to help your new President and all world leaders. Pray for patience and for the world leaders will find solutions. It will take some time to get through this new transition and bring in the new order of peace and love. Obama NEEDS you to continue to help him help you. Send him strength and courage. We are in the Baby Steps. Pray to bring the World into Balance, Peace and Harmony.
Where two or three are gathered together in the name of Christ or Christ Consciousness there IS the energy present for healing and miracles. ! Just as you came together as a collective to vote in your new president, you need to continue to come together and hold the energies of love, hope, peace, grace and prosperity ! Be there and support each other.

This is so beautiful ! You are all so VERY LOVED by so many. We are so very proud of all of you for the faith, courage and strength that you continue to be ! Thank you for all that you have done to usher in the New Earth and what you continue to do for earth and all mankind ! Thank you, you are such BRAVE SOULS and Beings of Light and Love !

We do see a very positive shift with the economy coming towards the end of 2010. Please do write down at this time your true hearts desire. Be very specific with your desired manifestations, thoughts and intentions.

Before we end this message, there are 2 movies that we feel is a perfect time to watch. Please consider watching these in the NOW and use them as a metaphor for what you are going through at this time not only as individuals but as a collective.

The Peaceful Warrior, how Dan fell, and humanities fall from Grace. How Dan was able to work through his ego and make it. So, is humanity now ! Autumn Rush is a wonderful metaphor for what many of you are experiencing and your new gifts and abilities. You all have the ability to hear the Music of the Spheres, REALLY ! BELIEVE ! and Enjoy.

We love you so very much Dear Ones, Thank you for all that you ARE.
" The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you" BELIEVE My Beloveds ! God's Blessings to you ALL,
I AM Archangel Michael

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 Faith, Kari 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. Several years ago Master Zhoser came through during my Reiki Master Teacher Attunement. 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.

"Be the change you wish to see in the world." - Gandhi

"The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be measured by the way its animals are treated" Mahatma Ghandi

" Entering into communion with the entire Universe our horizons are extended to the very limits of reality, to a completely realized Oneness of boundless expansion. The image should not be the drop of water which mergers into the ocean and is lost, but rather, the ocean which enters the drop". Much Love and many Blessings, Kari ___________________________________________________________

" Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world, it's the only thing that ever has" Margaret Mead.

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.

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."

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.
