Opening Our Hearts

[Guest guest]

by Doreen VirtueAs lightworkers, our primary purpose is to heal ourselves, so that we may heal others.

When we open our heart chakras fully to Love, other people notice the glow that naturally emanates from deep within us.

Even those with no knowledge of spirituality are drawn to our love and light.

They notice something "different" about our peaceful nature, and the glow of Divine love triggers a deep, forgotten memory of God.

So, the greatest mission that lightworkers can now embark upon is to lose their fears of love, so that their light can help to awaken our sleeping brothers and sisters.

The heart chakra becomes clogged, shrunken, and dirty from fears associated with love.

It seems that every person has suffered pain in a relationship, including romantic, family, and friend relationships.

This pain causes us to fear love.

Yet, because love is the essence of life, this fear causes us to lose touch with life's true essence.

We become confused and forget what true love feels like.

When we are afraid of love, we are literally afraid of being ourselves.

The fear of love leads us to become guarded, sarcastic, and defensive.

We are so frightened of being hurt, manipulated, abused, or controlled, that we seal our heart away from all experiences of receiving or giving love.

Unfortunately, when we close our hearts to love, we also shut off the awareness of God speaking through our intuition.

Ironically, this intuition is the trustworthy guide that reliably leads us to relationships that honor and support us.

When we block the awareness of Divine guidance, we are unaware of the angels' warnings about abusive relationships.

Here is a powerful healing meditation given to me by the angels, to help us lose our fears about love and cleanse and open our collective heart chakra.

You may want to record this meditation with softbackground music, so that you can easily listen to it once or twice a day:

"With your eyes closed, and in a comfortable position, take two orthree very deep cleansing breaths.

Visualize a beautiful cloud of emerald green light surrounding you.

As you breathe in, you take this healing energy into your lungs, your cells, and into your heart.

Concentrate upon your heart a moment, as you allow the emerald green and the angels will do everything else.

Take another deep breath, as you become willing to release the fear of being loved, including the fear that if you are loved, you could bemanipulated, tricked, used, abandoned, rejected, persecuted, or inother ways, hurt.

With another deep breath, allow all these fears from any lifetime toAllow yourself to release any old unforgiveness you may be harboring toward those who seem to have hurt you in a love relationship.

Become willing to release unforgiveness toward your mother . . .toward your father . . .toward other parental figures . . . toward yoursiblings . . . each of your relationships.

Now, with another deep breath, allow the light to cleanse you completely.

Be willing to release any unforgiveness you may hold toward yourself connected to love.

Be willing to forgive yourself for betraying yourself, for ignoring your intuition, or for not looking out for your highest interests.

Give yourself a hug, either in your mind or with your arms.

Reassure your inner self that you will never again engage in self-betrayal.

You now commit to following your intuition and discernment, so that you could never be or stay in any relationship that would hurt you.

Fully release the unforgiveness for any mistakes that you think you may have made in any relationship, including your relationship with yourself.

And with another very deep cleansing breath, feel yourself healed, whole, and ready to enjoy the love that is the truth about who you really are."
