The Monarch

[Deborah Koeppel]

A recent morning was a little rough for me as far as feeling positive and enjoying the vibrational energy of the day. Worry began to creep in and it became hard to stop any of the negative feelings once they were taking hold.

I was praying and meditating of all that I was thankful for and asked for some kind of sign to ease the fear that was starting to take over. I pictured a beautiful Monarch Butterfly and asked if I could only have a sign – maybe see this butterfly, my fears would be put to rest and all would be well again. After some time, I didn’t see a butterfly and no other “signs” of hope were manifesting.

A few hours passed and the fear was still with me to the point it was affecting me physically. I went to my bedroom window, got down on my knees, holding my “red rose” (see “The Red Rose” blog if you want to know the meaning of this for me) and started visualizing the life I knew I already had, gratitude and love began pouring out of me.

The sky was a beautiful clear blue with very little clouds. As I looked up at the clouds that were there, I envisioned I was flying up to touch them. Just as I turned my head to look away from the clouds to the blue sky, a beautiful Monarch butterfly flew by my window!!! Tears of joy flooded my eyes and my heart was filled with such warmth and gratitude to the Universe for manifesting what I asked for! I am on the right track and my “sign” proved it to me once again. THANK YOU!!! Yes, life truly is GREAT!!!

Note: This is all TRUE. I also want to point out that I have not seen a Monarch Butterfly in the desert since I lived here. I know they are common to the USA, but this was the first time I had seen one here. Gotta love it!!!!
