 <\/p>\n

I wanted to talk a bit about the symbolic meaning of some of the symbols we connect with each year in the spring time on Easter summer.\u00a0\u00a0 I have such lovely memories myself of Easter as a child.\u00a0\u00a0 The new outfit, shoes, pocketbook and coat that my mom made for me on occasion.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Also flowers, newly grown, beauty of nature coming out for the first time. A time of growth, new ideas, and a time of joy, fun and traditional activities shared by family members.\u00a0 Decorating eggs, the day before Easter, and the egg hunts on Easter Sunday.\u00a0 We would race around the yard in our Sunday best, looking for those eggs, and counting how many eggs we found, at the end of the egg hunt.\u00a0 The eggs represents the new birth of new ideas.\u00a0\u00a0 When I was growing up we used real eggs for the egg hunt.\u00a0 By the time my nieces and nephews were participating in egg hunts, they were plastic eggs with some pennies or dimes\/ nickels inside the egg.\u00a0 Time had progressed, along with their idea of a successful Easter egg hunt. The colored eggs that were colored the day before, were sitting in the refrigerator, waiting patiently to be experienced by anyone who cared to try one of them.<\/span><\/p>\n

And so I asked the angels, Particularly Archangel Ariel, about the different symbols of this spring Christian Holiday.\u00a0 This is what she had to say to me about this.<\/span><\/p>\n

As we know that the Easter, represented change of something new, in our world. The symbols associated with this holiday, show this. Think of the Baby animals around Easter Sunday. The baby lamb, the bunnies, Butterflies.\u00a0 Each has a symbolic meaning, of something they can offer to us. \u00a0The bunny is about the productiveness around NEW Ideas, and how the ideas can be helpful to others and for our self too.\u00a0 The bunny is all about generating and sharing this newness to all.\u00a0 Also being in the place of positivity, who can\u2019t be positive around cute little bunnies. The lamb represents Christ, son of God, so of course it would be a lamb.\u00a0 The lamb in general represents Jesus\u2019s flock that is spoken so often in the bible.\u00a0 And then gustatory experience of eating lamb on Easter Sunday.\u00a0 This also speaks of the sacrifice that our Lord Jesus, went through, when he was on the cross.\u00a0 So it speaks to his sacrifice for \/ to us but also the many sacrifices we make as humans in so many different ways. Archangel Ariel speaks of the new ideas that may be on your mind at this time\u00a0\u00a0 He says to write them down, keep track of them.\u00a0 And he says, when beauty comes from within, we can share it, our beauty shines outside of us too, in every way.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In my next column, I am going to speak of a few more symbols, and message from the angels about this year\u2019s Easter. \u00a0\u00a0What we can do to help with harmony in our world.\u00a0 Also I am reminded that these symbols in many ways are universals and non-denominational. We all have love and we all joy of new birth, of new beginnings, in our lives, at all times. <\/span><\/p>\n

I forgot about them by the time I was 8 and didn\u2019t think they existed for a very long time.. In my late 30\u2019s I was reintroduced to them again and learned I could communicate and hear their messages for other and for myself. I found I was channeling their messages and began channeling their energy for writing and for my book: Living in the Heart Place with Your Angels: Daily Angelical Whispers throughout the Year. This is a book of daily angel messages and journal exercise channeled over a period of two years. I am an author, Angelical life Coach, and helps others, with learning accessing their angels, along with realization of self-empowerment, creative experiences and to help them understand how creative and intuitive the truly are. I also work in the Akashic Records and also a Reiki Master and medium too. Peg has worked in education in preschool and special needs, with children, adults, in voc rehab, education.
