Happy Holidays
From my house to yours
May abundant blessings
Pour over you now and all throughout
The New Year.

Dear Friends,

Isn’t it amazing how fast time flies? And the older one gets, the faster it goes! I am so grateful for old age! I love having a say in the use of my time. I love being able to come and go as I please. I love creating a peaceful, beautiful space around me in my sweet little home here in Brooksville, FL with the year-round flowers in my gardens and the Sacred Spiral for meditation. (Photo to the left shows the five-foot waterfall and the spiral).

I’m now part of a weekly Yoga meditation group, which uplifts and inspires me. I encourage you to find a group of spiritual people where you can meditate to raise your consciousness. It is the best way to create the life experiences you desire. Plus we all need to pray for peace and prosperity for all of humanity  throughout 2017.

Recently, I talked my friend, Pam Merrill into teaching a beginner’s oil painting class in the clubhouse here in Cloverleaf 55+ Park. I’ve been inspired and delighted with the results called “Moonlight Memories” and “Fruit.”

A friend loaned me her golf cart last night so I could take a couple friends on a two-hour tour of the lights around the park. It was delightful. Now those same friends are trying to talk me into getting my own golf cart. But I don’t want to give up my little outdoor patio under the car port in front of the house.

I love the way God sends me people to become a part of my life. I met a woman at McDonald’s—I didn’t know why I was inspired to buy lunch when I had eaten less than a couple hours before—but afterwards I knew. I simply let her tell me all about her life, which was fascinating. She showed me her delightful drawings that were a collage of the people in her life. I encouraged her to put them into a book of her memoirs. I hope she does for it will be priceless for her seven (!) children. But, alas, she doesn’t even have a computer. It flashed through my mind how I could make a career out of helping seniors write their memoirs—but nixed that idea—I have to write my own first—and finish my second novel—and finish that 11 foot rug—and paint and…!

What do you love to do? Do you make time for yourself to do them? I really hope so, for your soul yearns to express itself in a multitude of ways. It is not selfish to do so. It is God creating through you. Don’t ignore those urges. Begin writing your memoirs with short stories. My son, Tom, has written excerpts of events from his life. I was impressed and delighted with them.

I have been inspired to put my “Letters from a Guardian Angel” with free shipping before Christmas, but alas! I forgot. So, I’m offering an “After Christmas Sale” of any of my books with free shipping. Just call me at 352-848-3011, and I’ll put them in the mail pronto!

I’m sending you an abundance of good energy to uplift and inspire you. May your 2017 be the most amazing year of your life. No matter what is going on in the world around you, you create your own world by your thoughts and desires. Only fear, anxiety, anger, worry, and frustration can bring you an undesirable future. Rejoice and give thanks for all you have—don’t focus on what you don’t have. Rejoice and give thanks that all your needs are met each day and every day of your life. Then give thanks that it is so, and YOU WILL MAKE IT SO!

With great love,
Betty Rae

Dear Friends,

I’m sorry I’ve neglected to do my job of uplifting and inspiring you! I’ve been deep into writing my novel, “Soul Mates and Angels” and it is finally completed, edited, and ready to publish, as soon as I get a cover design. I’ve allowed a few select people to read it via Drop Box to get feed back. So far everyone has loved it.

If you would like a free copy please watch for it on Amazon. As soon as possible, I will be publishing it there. I’m really excited about this new project and am already working on book two. My main character is Anita Lyn Riley. (Her birth date is the same as mine, as is her name numerologically!). Although her experiences are fiction, her psychic experiences are based on my own life. The setting is back in the 50’s with Anita a senior in high school. Her encounter with the K K Klan and its sadistic Grand Dragon makes for fast-paced action plus factual metaphysical experiences of “Ghost Walking” (Astral travelling), “Walk-ins,” and psychic and intuitive abilities in my main character. I wanted to present a book that would have the metaphysical facts correctly given–not Hollywood mumbo-jumbo!

This project has haunted me for years until I finally gave into the inspiration to write that first novel. My English-teacher brother told me I didn’t know anything about writing a novel, and he didn’t have time to teach me! I hope he’s looking down from heaven and biting his tongue. In fact, I’ve found the challenge inspiring–as Anita’s guardian angel channels through her with some amazing words of wisdom–I’m sure Raphael was at work with me for that chapter!

Have you thought about writing that novel? Well, take it from me–just start writing. Don’t wait. Begin today. Who knows? You may be a number-one best selling author. I know I’m programming that for my first novel!

Blessing in abundance to you!

30 Days to Happiness

Within only three days, Raphael and my angels inspired me to write and publish a little booklet called, “30 Days to Happiness.” Each day brings you a challenge to change your mind from fear, anxiety and self-doubt into the joy of love and trust in yourself, in your world and in God. When followed with a sincere desire to find happiness and to change your life’s circumstances, these 30 Days to Happiness  can bring about surprising coincidences, unexpected blessings, and a lifted spirit learning how to laugh again.

This little booklet is worth its weight in gold. If you are having relationship problems, or find yourself scraping the bottom of the barrel to make ends meet, expect miracles. It has been said, “Change your mind; you change your life.”

Determine now to change your life. Follow each day’s suggestions with enthusiasm and a sense of purpose and you will be amazed at the results.

In my many consultations with people, Raphael’s uplifting and inspiring suggestions always amaze me, making my own heart soar with joy. The Archangel can see each person’s potential for a fulfilling, productive and richly rewarding life. Each day, every person’s challenge lies in recognizing the pull of negative polarity of our planet that can cause us to become cynical and mistrustful of others, of politics, of anything good really happening. This kind of thinking keeps us from being happy. Each soul must learn to bring the polarities into balance by choosing to bask in the light of loving ourselves, our lives and our world. We learn to trust that each choice we make out of love and trust will bring us uplifting experiences. Conversely, each time we give into fear and doubt, we will experience discomfort in the body, confusion of the mind, and unhappy experiences woven from the fabric of our negative thoughts and emotions.

Truly, we are weavers of the fabric of our lives. Everything we experience can either become a gem of wisdom, or a curse to be repeated again and again–until we choose to be happy.

And so, dear friends–CHOOSE TO BE HAPPY!

I am offering this little booklet, “30 Days to Happiness” for only $5 plus shipping. Call me at 352-848-3011 today, and I will send you a gift of golden wisdom.

We are loving you!

Betty Rae & Raphael

A Belated Happy New Year to You!

I just got off the phone with a client who wondered if I was still alive when she saw my last blog was in November!

I guess I’ve been caught up in creating again–but not with mosaics or any other art form. This time I’m using all my creative energies to establish a wonderful dwelling here in Clover Leaf Farms in Brooksville, Florida. Ever since I bought this little two-bedroom, two bath home back in March, I’ve been renovating–putting in a new kitchen, need flooring, new white siding, new windows with red shutters, and an amazing back yard with a Sacred Spiral, a patio of red blocks, raised gardens lined with red bricks, and a four-foot waterfall. I’m in heaven.

We are all creators, using divine energy every day to make our lives more beautiful, prosperous, exciting and fun–or not. When we allow our energy level to drop into negative vibrations, we create negative experiences and wonder why God did that to us. God didn’t do it. We did. We take the powerful, freely given divine energy and treat ourselves either to uplifting, joyful experiences or negative energy creations.

We’ve all heard the saying, “An attitude of gratitude creates a joy-filled life.” To experience joy, your energy has to be lifted up out of anxiety, pessimism, anger, depression and self doubt. Only when you are grateful every single moment for the gift of life, can you begin to become aware of all the wonderful things of beauty around you. Only then can your life reflect that beauty, peace, harmony and joy.

And so, dear friends, my New Year’s wish for you is to have you always focus on what is good in your life, and eliminate rehashing what was bad. For what you focus upon–you create! May this year of 2016 be the most adventurous, creative, joyful and fun-filled year of your life.

Can a Psychic Really Tell Your Future?

 First of all, we don’t use that dirty work, “psychic” anymore because it has gotten such a bad rep. We’re called Clairvoyants, or Mystics, or Intuitives, etc. Secondly, no one can predict the future accurately because it can shift and change so easily. And thirdly, each person is creating their future by their mind-sets—and if they change their mind—they change their future.

Even so—the most famous psychics like Sylvia Brown, or even Edgar Cayce were reported to be at the most 80% accurate. That means that for every 10 things they might predict, two will be either totally wrong, or slightly off, or simply have not come to pass yet. For example, I gave a reading to a young woman and almost everything I “predicted” or even said, she would shake her head and say, “No, that’s not right.” Well, I felt like a total failure. But…four years later, she came to my retreat center and said, “I listened to your reading just before I came, and everything you said has come true.” That blew me away.

And still, I do not claim to be a predictor of the future. And after studying Quantum Physics, I don’t believe anything in the future is carved in solid stone. I’ve come to understand that everything is vibrating energy, which emits sound and color. With my guide, the Archangel Raphael’s help, I am shown the soul’s vibrating energy, which presents itself as a huge column of light made up of billions of tiny lights like Fourth-of-July sparklers. The color shows me the soul’s point of view or the way it will approach life. For example, a red soul will seek power and control, learning leadership often through the military or a police force, while a blue soul will seek to express itself in a multitude of ways: art, music, dance, acting, writing, etc. A green soul will seek to be of service to others, while a violet soul will seek to understand God and may try to save your soul.

Now here comes the kicker—I’ve come to believe that there is no future—or past—that there is only NOW. Whatever you have experienced is part of your past—only while you are here in the physical form on a physical planet. But your soul is like an accomplished actor who has written plays to act out as the lead character on Planet Earth’s stage. So when I’m shown a “past life” it is like an actor stepping on a stage and re-enacting Shakespeare’s Hamlet. He/she knows the lines perfectly and in that moment the soul is experiencing another time and place—another story the soul has already written—but when it reviews that story, it can change it. It no longer gets caught up in the polarities of our planet. It can review the life without pain, or remorse, or guilt, or any of a human being’s emotions. In fact, souls tell me they love to act on Earth’s stage. They say there is a waiting list of souls who desire to come into physical form so they can tell their stories.

So, can a psychic really tell the future? Most definitely. When a clairvoyant “sees” something that could happen in a person’s life, the probability of that happening is 80%. But, if that person changes their lifestyle, or their minds about whom and what they are—then their future also shifts and changes. Which leads us to this thought: You are the creator of your future. What you focus on will become your reality. So, if you are a cup-half-empty type of person, you will always look for what’s wrong with your life—and you will find it. But if you are a cup-half-full person, you will create a life rich in positive experiences because that’s what you focused upon!

Be the predictor of your own future. Focus on bringing your true self—your soul—into the picture. You are a being of light. You are filled with divine energy waiting to be expressed in a physical world. You are powerful. Create powerful experiences that can change the world.

Sending you an abundance of joy,

We are

The Triple-A Spiritual Life Insurance Policy

Awareness — Once you begin to pay attention to your thoughts, to sort out those that are productive and those that are not, you raise your awareness and can begin to pull in the reins of the wild horse of your mind.

Affirmation — The next step in the Triple-A  Spiritual Live Insurance Policy is to make an affirmation that will steer your mind in the right direction.

Action — And the last quick step to insure a safe journey is to take action: If you are stuck in negative thoughts, get up and move, dance and sing, or go for a walk in nature, or hug a tree, or clean a closet. Do not allow your mind to hold negative thoughts for they will take control of your life. Allow your Triple-A insurance policy to kick in.

If your thoughts are to take a positive action that will thrill and excite you, make an affirmation of confidence that you can, indeed, succeed in following this inspiration…and know the next step to do so is just waiting for you. So breathe deeply and listen–meditate, and then go about your business with full awareness that the next clue is coming.

And the best thing about this insurance policy–it’s free!

Did you know that your thoughts are spinning out into the Universe, collecting like energy and sending a physical picture, feeling, idea, or experience right back to you? Do your realize that you are made up of molecules of divine energy, shining like a beacon of light? Most people cannot see the amazing subtle energy surrounding you. Some can. They call it an “Aura”, and it can be seen by sensitives–and they can feel it, too. If you are a cup-half-full person, your light is bright and people feel good around you. If you are a cup-half-empty person, your light can dim with your thoughts of lack, anger, anxiety, stress, and feelings of being overwhelmed–and people will be uncomfortable around you.

Did you know that your aura, your emotions, and your thoughts–all being energy–have a vibration, color and sound? They are like a marching band going before you. Do people greet you with a smile–or do they drop their eyes,  turn away and want to flee for their lives?  What music is your aura playing?

Raphael has said that souls do not have names because their DNA pattern of energy is a musical song that identifies them to one another. We are like that, too. No one has your song. Only you can sing it.

We are all mirrors to one another. That’s why people project their feelings and beliefs upon you, trying to imply that is who you are. But you’re not them. You are uniquely YOU–a being of Light Energy. Imagine your light shining like a Lighthouse, guiding others to a safe harbor–including your own ship. Be a light unto the world–guard your thoughts, for they are far more powerful than you can imagine. Your thoughts spin out your future, your life, your story. If their energy is of a higher frequency vibration, good will come back to you. If your thoughts are filled with fear, doubt, anger, anxiety, helplessness and hopelessness, you are going to experience unhappy moments that reflect these vibrations.

So, Powerful Person–what do you desire to create? Think about what thoughts travel through your mind during the day. Keep track of the number of positive, uplifting thoughts compared to the number of negative, cynical, critical, angry thoughts that pop into your head. Know that the most powerful thoughts backed by strong emotions will be those that create your future.

The Source of all Energy is called God/Source and many other names. This Divine Energy is given freely in abundance for each of us to use–without judgment or condemnation–and even without praise. It is just there. So use it wisely. Become the creator of your life. Your thoughts are powerful.  Use them wisely.

Blessing You with Abundant Power-Filled-Thoughts,

We are,

Betty Rae & Raphael

Problems are Blessed Puzzles to be solved. 

The Secret is to raise our Emotional energy into the light Of joy.

Yes. The secret is to let go of anxiety and anticipate the solution with gladness and joy. Then when it comes, we can be amazed and grateful. But when we stew and worry about a problem, it’s like quicksand, we sink lower and lower, losing sleep and energy. With lowered energy, we cannot catch the brilliant ideas that flow from angels and guides. It becomes a huge catch 22.

Every single day we are challenged with problems and concerns. It could be a small matter of being stuck in traffic when we’re late for an appointment. When anger and frustration seem to want to take over, then is the time to take steps to raise your emotional energy. And how do you do that? Here are some simple steps.

1. Relax the body. Lift your shoulders and then relax. Turn the head slowly first right and then left to relax the neck.
2. Breathe slowly and deeply–so it does not raise the shoulders, but swells the abdomen.
3. Turn your attention away from the problem and put yourself in a better place–in nature, beside water, fishing–whatever is a place of peace. Breathe in that image.
4. Imagine–and igniting the imagination here is a power button–a happy event that warmed your heart. Hold that image until you find yourself smiling.
5. Imagine your angel– a large being of divine light–right beside you. Ask for what you need.
6. Breathe deeply to hold that peaceful place. Do not allow your mind to switch back to the problem.
7. Perhaps you could sing a song, or say a prayer, or think of things to be grateful for.
8. Then turn your attention back to the present situation and know that your need is being met in that moment.
9. As ideas flow, follow them.
10. Give grateful thanks for this Puzzle that was turned into a Blessing.

So, next time you find yourself in a situation, try these steps and see if they make a difference.

Here is a personal example: Last night the power went out in my two bedrooms and bathrooms. One bedroom is used for my office with a whole lot of electrical equipment, including my modem, computer, phone, and Internet, which also powers my TV. I found it funny that the nightlights in both bathrooms worked. Small blessings!

Of course, it meant that I would need to call in an electrician to exchange the 15 amp for a 25. The cost of that could have caused me to lose sleep.  But I used the above steps and knew my problem would be solved in due time. I grabbed a book and read until I was ready to sleep.

This morning I called a handyman to come and see why the circuit breaker in my office would not flip back on. We checked everything that might have tripped it, and found nothing. But then he saw a that a power-surge extension plug was on although only a small night light was plugged in. He turned it off and the power went back on! Such a simple thing.

Now I can wait until I can research electricians to find one who does not charge too much.

Blessings! Sometimes you have to power-search for them.

Dear Friends,

The Halo Club is a gathering of two or more people who seek spiritual growth through intellectual stimulation, group discussion, and meditation. Halo Club members reach for their highest creative potential as spiritual, mental, physical and emotional beings.  They meet in a setting of total acceptance, giving loving support while they share fun, laughter  and  refreshments.

Realizing that we are all One with God, the Halo Club  is open to people of all races, creeds and beliefs who come together with non-judgment and unconditional love.  Halo Club members become your personal Angelic cheering section, turning challenges into life’s joyous stepping stones.

I started the “Halo Club” way back in 1996 after teaching an adult-ed class in the local high school. It was called, “Come Play with the Angels”, which later became a published book with tapes. Each week I introduced a different Angelic attribute. “The Angel of Serenity” brought relaxation and meditation; “The Angel of Dreams” revealed how to remember and interpret dreams; “The Angel of the Stars” brought an angelic overview of how the planets and stars bring different energy to individuals; “The Angel of Creativity” challenged the class with a creative puzzle; “The Angel of Time” explored the  emotional and intellectual strings pulled by the concept of time; and “The Angel of Light” reviewed deeply rooted beliefs in “God” and the “power of good versus evil.”

The participants so enjoyed the course that they continued meeting once a week with me for two years. It was this group that named themselves, “The Halo Club—Striving for Enlightenment.” 

You can learn more about it on another page on this web site. If you live in Brooksville, FL, and would like to join my Halo Club, call her at 352-848-3011 for dates and times. We review and discuss various metaphysical books of interest, have a guided meditation and then share refreshments.

If you don’t live near Brooksville, Florida and would like to start your own Halo Club, you can contact me and I will gladly send you information and encouragement in how to start your own group.

Always wishing you peace, harmony, prosperity, abundance and…enlightenment, I am

The Halo Club–Striving for Enlightenment

Dear Friends,

I am reintroducing “The Halo Club” as a gathering of two or more people who seek spiritual growth through intellectual stimulation, group discussion, and meditation. Halo Club members reach for their highest creative potential as spiritual, mental, physical and emotional beings.  Realizing that we are all One with God, the Halo Club  is open to people of all races, creeds and beliefs who come together in a setting of total acceptance, giving loving support while they share fun, laughter  and  refreshments. Halo Club members become your personal cheering section, turning life’s challenges into joyous stepping stones to a raised consciousness that see all things as good.

History of the Halo Club

In 1996, the Halo Club began as a six-week class called, “Come, Play with the Angels.,” that I offered  through adult education. Each week I introduced a different Angelic attribute: “The Angel of Serenity” brought relaxation and meditation; “The Angel of Dreams” revealed how to remember and interpret dreams; “The Angel of the Stars” brought an angelic overview of how the planets and stars bring different energy to individuals; “The Angel of Creativity” challenged the class with a creative puzzle; “The Angel of Time” explored the  emotional and intellectual strings pulled by the concept of time; and “The Angel of Light” reviewed deeply rooted beliefs in “God” and the “power of good versus evil.”

The participants so enjoyed the course that we continued meeting once a week for two years. It was this group that named themselves, “The Halo Club—Striving for Enlightenment.”.

Join Betty Rae’s Halo Club or Start Your Own!

I now live in Brooksville, Florida. You may attend my monthly Halo Club or begin a chapter of your own. No matter where you live, it is possible for me to join you on Skype, or by simply putting the phone on speaker for at least through the first six sessions as I teach your group the various “Angelic Attributes” as mentioned above as well as the protocol for the group. I have learned though many years of teaching (of students from 2 years of age to adults for over 30 years but also as a spiritual adviser) that groups need a format, a set of rules to avoid the pitfalls that can turn a group sour. Some of these pitfalls are: one person monopolizing the conversation; someone judging or criticizing; someone finding fault or having a negative attitude; someone who wants to give sage advise when it has not been asked for–etc. etc. etc.

It is said that “Wherever two or more are gathered in my name…” to that I add, “angels dance.”  Come Dance with Me! Like the movie, together we learn the beginning steps of enlightenment until we are floating over Earth’s dance floor.
