Manifestation, Magic, and Grace

Happy New Year, my lovely Rising Soul Chronicles Friends!

This morning, as I lit my candle and spoke my intentions, I felt a deep connection to the Earth. It was as if the universe whispered, “You’re on the right path.”

I began my day by thanking the spirits who protected my son, Xander, and me while we slept. I looked out my window to admire the fresh blanket of snow and breathed in the crisp morning air, a reminder of the Earth’s ever-refreshing energy. Feeling renewed, I made my way downstairs to clean my altars. This is a sacred act for me, a moment of gratitude and connection.

I always greet my altars with playful love, thanking them for their guidance - even jokingly mentioning how "close" I was to winning the lottery but how grateful I am for the signs they send me through spiritual numbers. My energy always feels guided as I refresh myself with the spiritual cologne that calls to me in the moment. Whether it’s Florida Water (Agua Floridaaaaa, mi favorito!), Rose Water, Sandalwood, or Lavender, the scent lifts my spirits and sets the tone for the day.

Once my energy is aligned, I light a phenomenal incense stick. Its aroma wraps the room in sacredness, amplifying the energy of my prayers. I cleanse the water glasses on my altars with incense smoke and refill them to the brim, overflowing as I pray. Standing in front of each altar, I begin my invocations with Psalm 23 (memorized by heart, baby), asking for love, wisdom, and protection over my beautiful children, Jade, AJ, and Xander, and all those who love us.

Of course, as I cleanse and prepare the cups, Café Bustelo is brewing. Because, really, is it morning without it? I make extra cups for the altars as offerings, accompanied by breakfast biscuits or cookies. My spirits eat when I eat - it’s a bond that reflects our connection. Even with limited resources, I give with my whole heart, knowing it’s not the quantity of the offering that matters, but the quality and love behind it.

Nature fills my heart with gratitude. The flowers, the trees, the sun, the moon, and all the planets remind me of the immense beauty in the universe. I refresh the altars with new flowers, simple but vibrant arrangements, and prepare their coffee cups with lots of love. The joy I feel in these moments fuels my soul.

Next, I prepare my spiritual candle. Before lighting it, I heat fresh charcoal and sprinkle frankincense or myrrh, allowing its sacred aroma to flow through my home, blessing every corner. Even my front door gets a dose...because my neighbors deserve to smell this holy house! As I walk through my home, aka my spiritual sanctuary, I release any burdens from the day before and reclaim my energy. I fix my crown as the Queen of this castle and the Heroine of this story.

This incense kit is fabulous and makes the blessing aspect even more intimate!

After completing my offerings, I focus on my candle, infusing every step of its preparation with prayer and creativity. Creativity is food for my soul, and I cherish every moment I can pour my energy into it. When the candle is finally lit, it feels as though the universe nods in agreement: Let the work begin.

Today is especially magical because of 111, a number that resonates deeply with me on multiple levels. This number is not just a mere digit; it holds a significant spiritual meaning that encapsulates concepts such as divine alignment, intuition, and the powerful art of manifestation. When I see the number 111, it serves as a gentle reminder from the universe that I am in sync with my highest self and that my thoughts and intentions are aligning perfectly with the energy around me. This alignment encourages me to trust my instincts and to embrace the path that is unfolding before me, knowing that I am supported by a higher power. I feel an immense sense of honor when I reflect on my spirituality, my unwavering faith, and the inner strength that has carried me through various challenges.

These elements of my life empower me to navigate the complexities of existence with grace and resilience. The way I choose to live my life is not just about seeking peace; it is about cultivating a sense of magic in the everyday moments. I find joy in the little things, from the warmth of the sun on my face to the laughter shared with loved ones, and I recognize that these experiences contribute to the overall tapestry of my life. As I look to the future, I am filled with optimism and hope, believing that life will ONLY get better from this point onward.

However, I also understand the importance of being present in the here and now. I am eternally grateful for where I am at this moment, appreciating the journey that has brought me to this place of awareness and fulfillment. I acknowledge the incredible things that are being worked out on my behalf, often beyond my immediate understanding. I trust that the universe is orchestrating events in my favor, aligning opportunities and experiences that will lead me to even greater heights.

This gratitude fills my heart with warmth and inspires me to continue embracing the magic that life has to offer. As you can tell, this morning left me bursting with joy...a je ne sais quoi that fills you with awe, inspired, invigorated and leaves you mesmerized.

Today will truly be a great day, and I hope what I’ve shared as a bonus in the following post, adds a touch of magic to yours.

Guided by Spirit, I RISE

Under crescent moons and Saturn’s gaze, I walk the path that wisdom lays.

Through sacred numbers and cosmic embrace, my hearts aligned with the divine and a basket full of grace.

111 whispers of doors swung wide...while 23 keeps balance by my side.

The fire roaring within

The courage I claim

Guided by spirit, with altars aglow

I RISE in their name.

May this post inspire and uplift you, my dear Rising Soul Chronicles Friend.

Remember, Love is YOU!
