The Day of Lord Ganesha, God of New Beginnings and Over Comer of Obstacles

I awoke not knowing why I was feeling a sense of calmness, yet quiet excitement and also a strong understanding that after a few weeks of emotional flux that it was now for me to let go of control and trust that the Universe had my back. The sunshine helped endorse my feeling of Knowing things were going to unfold as they should.

And then I bumped into my new friend on my dog walk who was bubbling with excitement as she explained why she was thrilled to see me, as she’d been thinking about me, and because she wanted to share the exciting fact that it is the day of Ganesh in India - the remover of obstacles and a hugely loved Deity. I was fascinated to learn this, as I had in fact pulled his card from my inspirational card deck only yesterday! My friend was indeed a special messenger to make sure I’d heard his guidance.

I have deep gratitude for this amazing God and can ‘feel into’ what he stands for and for what he brings to the table for us to share in, especially today. As I write these words I realize that this is my message to hear as well as to share - that love is in fact all we too need to bring to the table - unwavering, brave and unconditional love.

Be touched by beloved Lord Ganesh’s energy too and his gifts and join in the colorful celebrations of this incredible God and share in the universal love. The photos in this link are joyous for the soul and may well for some begin your journey of cosmic discovery.

I am in gratitude daily for all the guidance that is given to me and am so lucky to have such a compassionate and kind friend to share this message today as she knew it would be so relevant to me and shed light on recent concerns . So take a moment to look at your life and recognize your special messengers - there are guiding gifts a plenty if we only choose to be open and to receive them.
