Archangel Gabrielle on Seeking Joy … and Who You Are

Rob: Whenever I call in the archangels, I always see Gabrielle coming down from above, floating down from above the ceiling in a golden light. So she’s doing that again. Gotta make a grand entrance! 🤣

Archangel Gabrielle: Hello, Rob. Hello, all. Yes, this is Gabrielle, the Messenger of the One, the Messenger of you, for you, for all of you. And it’s not so much that I have to make a grand entrance. That is the way you see me, and I am happy that you have chosen such a grand way of having me appear to you. I am honored by your vision.

So you were questioning what the topic would be today. Well, why can’t it be about joy? All of life is meant to be about joy. This is so often forgotten. You have a tendency to push that aside, and it’s just a reflection, another way for humans to feel or to manifest the feeling of unworthiness, as if you are not worthy of feeling joy on a daily basis, about everything! It is everywhere around you, and in that sense, feeling joy is a choice. If you choose to find it, you WILL find it. If you seek it, you will find it.

And joy is the natural outcome of finding that love within YOU, to find Heaven within. As you were discussing previously with with your teammate, it is all about finding Heaven within, and Heaven, as you have rightly stated, is a state of mind, a state of heart, a state of being, of choosing to reconnect with yourself, that you are divine, that you are love. At the end of the day, it all boils down to: YOU ARE LOVE!

As you said previously, God is love; You are Love; therefore, you are God. It’s as simple as that. And yet, humans choose to make it such a difficult concept, but it is only difficult because you choose not to believe that, as if you are somehow unworthy of that. Nothing could be further from the truth.

Focus on Heaven within. At the beginning of your own spiritual journey this lifetime, you started with the message to venture inward. It is just that, [and] that remains true today. It remains true always … always, always, always!

Seek the answers within, for the entirety of life, all that is happening to you, for you, with you, is happening within you. There is no external world. It is simply your interpretation of what is happening within you, for you are Love, and Love manifests everything in the universe, in the multiverse. It is all an expression of love, for you to understand who you really are. And it is just that.

Dreaming the Beautiful Dream…

Here is Part 2 of the February Channeling Event with Yeshua & Mary Magdalen channeling as one voice. I mistakenly posted part 3 yesterday, and am now correcting the order. Enjoy the bonus read! Such a huge help to have their perspective in these topsy turvy times. Don’t give up hope! Love, Jen

There is much to know about what is going on now. We will give you a brief synopsis.

There is a quickening of vibration that is affecting all of the planet, and some are feeling this as excitement, and some are feeling this as as a swarm of bees within them, around them, in front of them, in their news, you see?  So each of you is responding differently to the higher vibrations, but the higher vibrations are a natural process in the choice of ascension, which was made by you as a human collective, by all of the kingdoms present on the planet and by the Mother Planet herself. All of you together have said “Enough.” 

Some of you are aware of this declaration of intention to evolve into greater peace, into greater joy, greater play, greater delight, greater contentment, greater awareness, greater commitment to the connection that you have to one another and to an honoring of your Source. Many of you are aware of this. Many of you are aware of it during your dream time, when you are sitting with your guides and your teachers, when you remember.  And many of you have not yet remembered this, or feel that it is quite new and alien and uncomfortable, because you have such a diversity of humanity, and you are, in many ways, the leaders of this civilization, because you have created it. 

And because you are carrying such beautiful diversity, it requires an enormous amount of patience to accept each person in their own place, in their own stage of growing, as perfect just as they are. You have each threaded your way through civilizations in many parts of the galaxies, and you have not always been the ones who were most aware. Sometimes you have been the ones who were least aware. But this is not to create a hierarchy. 

And as you know, if you offer your patience, your acceptance, your refusal to judge, you also can access your trust that each one of you, each one of you, will arrive in your own perfect timing into participating in this dream of Mother Earth to house you again, in your purity, in your innocence, in your glory. 

You are such creative minds and hearts; your intuition and your imagination are your treasures. So just keep on dreaming, keep on dreaming this beautiful dream, because it is creating it. What you hold dear in your heart is visible collectively to all of you. 

It is as though there were a sphere and it were completely hollow. And then there is a workshop [at the bottom] and [there] you are all busy making patches, beautiful patches, beautiful squares and triangles and hexagons and pieces of all sizes and colors, and you run up and you plant it somewhere on the inside of the sphere. Little by little, the colors are developing. Little by little, the ideas are coming together and the shapes are fitting together, and you are creating scenarios.

You are creating new ways of being together, of coming together, of interacting with one another. You are creating new ways to move about, to communicate, such as this one we are enjoying now. Some of these are things that you are already living with. Some of these are things you are still piecing together. But can you imagine that this is your creation together? When you are finished pasting all of these little bits of color all over the inside of the sphere, you will find yourselves in a new creation. That is what you are involved in now, a new creation, and we are here to assist you in any way we can. We are most excited for you.

You asked the Mother, “We have a dream. We have something we would like to go and do. Can we go and do this now?” And the Mother gathered you together, gave her blessing and said, “Of course, you are my children. I want you to be happy.”  And you all are creating a world where you can not only be happy yourselves, but you can create the circumstances whereby each one of you can step into a greater sense of well being, of ease, of abundance.

Yes, but before this can happen— you do know this, but we speak it for everyone— before this can happen, the thoughts and the fears that have suppressed this beautiful vision have to come to the surface for you to notice, and then you can say, “Ah, that’s what’s been holding me back. I was afraid. I carried this fear for many lifetimes: that I would be left behind, that I would be abandoned, that I would shrivel and die and no one would care. I carried this fear for a very long time, but I no longer believe this fear. 

No. I will write it on the tag on a tea bag, and I will compost it in my compost pile. I don’t want that thought anymore. I don’t want it to hold me back and I just don’t want to carry it anymore, so I’m going to compost it.” 

You can do this with any of your feelings, any of your fears, anything that you have outgrown and are no longer interested in supporting.

Now, we would like to turn the time over to questions. You may continue with a question that is related to what we have been discussing, or it may be a question that seems purely personal to you, but it is in some way niggling at you. It is something that you would like to settle within your mind.

Chaos or Peace? Part 3 of the February channeling event. Trying to make sense of it all… Yeshua and Mary channeled this answer together. I hope it helps…

Sue:  I guess I was wondering this: we so often see and hear and are exposed to all the chaos, as you mentioned, that circulates around the planet at this time. But it’s been my belief, and I was wondering if this is correct, but there is a much greater proportion of people who are seeking peace and whose intention is peace, much, much more so than those who are desiring to keep chaos alive and well on the planet. Is that correct? Is there a much greater percentage of people who are in a good place, as opposed to a chaotic place?

Yeshua & Mary Magdalen: Yes, you are all reacting at different levels, at different times, as well, but you are all reaching for a greater degree of harmony. The desire for peace is strong in a great majority of you. There are very few who you could actually say the desire is to continue the chaos, whether it be for profit or it be for merely to continue a downward spiral, which has been a habitual movement for quite a long time.

And as I said earlier, as we said, there is always the respect for the free will of each of you, even one who chooses to continue to spiral into a more fragmented place. Many of you are coming back into wholeness within yourselves, and you are also reaching out to one another. You are reaching your hands side-to-side, front and back, above and below. You are wishing to connect with all others on the planet in harmony, in a creation of a better world, a more joyful place for all the kingdoms of life. Yes, this is true. You are all deeply committed to this process. This is why it is moving forward so quickly.

However, consciously, there are still many who are clinging to habits of thought which include judgment, which include fear of their own survival, which include nostalgia for an earlier time which felt safer. You see, you have strong habits of thought and belief which will take some time to relax. And when enough of you — let us say, 63% — have created an alternative, which seems safe, which seems enjoyable, which seems exciting, then more of the others will let go of their too tight, still uncomfortable, but [committed] ways of thinking.

Many of you have learned to relax, away from doom-thinking or fear-based practices. You are beginning to become more proficient in spotting those thoughts that you have which are being manipulated, intentionally manipulated, by a few who enjoy it. It is like the one on the playground who loves to go and step in the puddle that the others are enjoying watching. You may be clustered around a beautiful little pool and watching some of the clarification happen and some reflection and some beauty, maybe some tiny life has caught in there, or is moving in an interesting way, and this one child will come up with his rubber boots and stick his foot right into the puddle. You see, it is not deliberate malice. It is merely immaturity.

You are coming to maturity as a group of souls, yes, but it is a continuum.

Sue: Thank you.

Y&MM:  You would not be succeeding as well as you were if there were not so many hearts joined together, truly, on this higher level, the level that you are capable of feeling now. When you are out on your boat, when you are walking through a meadow, when you are meditating, when you hear a songbird, when you pet your animal, when you make a new friend, when you do something kind for another person, your heart zings. You feel the joy!

This will become more and more contagious. Joy is contagious. And when you cannot find your joy, look for humor, look for paradox, look for soothing, look to your children, and you will realign with your joy.

Where is Your Peace? on the next Spirit Cafe ~

This article written by Rob Loveland recently appeared in the Council of Love’s newsletter. We have all been captivated by the 112 day walk of the Buddhist monks from TX to DC. Not just their powerful gesture and its inherent dedication but the response, the hunger for peace among all the ordinary people who witnessed this extraordinary act of love and endurance. Our team at A Lighthouse for the Soul is eager to get together and discuss this on Saturday Feb. 21- details below… please come!

Peace & Love,

Sue, Adrienne, Roxanne, Rob, Jen & Martin

Are You Following the Walk For Peace?

Since October 2025, a group of Buddhist monks have been walking 2300 miles across the United States, from Ft Worth, TX, to Annapolis, MD, to raise awareness of inner peace and mindfulness. The monks are on day 109 of the 120-day trek, currently visiting the monuments in Washington, D.C. They were even joined for a time by their loyal dog, Aloka! Many find their story very inspirational, especially given the unusually cold winter, so they are clearly achieving their intended purpose.

Regardless of whether you have been following the Walk For Peace journey (which can be done on-line at https://www.facebook.com/walkforpeaceusa), the question before you is, are you following your own path of peace? As the global political system continues to show itself to be so polarized, are you staying within that place of peace, that place beyond being sucked into the fray, where each side tries to convince the other that they are right. From the Divine Mother’s perspective, does it really matter?

This is what we would like to discuss at Saturday’s Spirit Cafe. We are sure you have valuable suggestions for how you’re dealing with the chaos to find that inner peace. Please join us to share your wisdom, to learn something, and to enjoy the company of like-minded souls.

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 21st, 11 am – 12 pm EST (New York time)

The Magdalena: Additional Guidance on Hope

Rob: I think this is going to be the Magdalena. So, I’m sitting on the bench in my sacred landscape, overlooking the water. She’s admiring the view.

So Mary, I’m not sure really what to talk about. I drew the card on Hope. [I’m] happy to talk about that, if you have anything to share. … I’m just trying to go deeper and just release more, surrender more.

Mary Magdalene: Greetings. This is the Magdalena. And yes, Rob, I am admiring your landscape here. You were commenting earlier to your teammate about formerly being an artist. I would suggest you still are. This is quite the creation!

So the whole idea of hope, as I think you know, is really living from, operating from, that place of absolute knowing of who you are and what the Divine Plan is and how you fit within that. And yes, Rob, for you, it is knowing within yourself what wisdom it is that you have to share and to offer. Whether you are an active teacher or not in the formal sense does not matter. You find ways to express your wisdom in any situation, when in any interaction.

And that wisdom is being able to express to others who THEY are, who YOU ALL are, where you come from, why you are here and where you are going. And the time is nigh …

Rob: [Chuckles] Sorry, I’m laughing at that word.

Magdalena: The time is close when so much will be revealed. It is the time to hold fast to what it is that you know, to that wisdom within yourself, being able to discern that what you see in the outside world is not really what’s happening behind the scenes. There’s a much grander plan at work.

So hold to what you know [and] tie yourself to that bedrock. And, as the Mother [has said], just have fun with it. There is no reason at all, no matter what outside appearances may indicate, there is no reason at all to be dour, to be fearful.

Know that all of it, everything that is happening is part of the Mother’s plan, and it is all unfolding exactly as it should. It may not be the way that you prefer, but we both know, that does not matter. When you commit yourself to service to all others, then what you think, what you want, what you desire, is simply that — to be of service to others.

And yes, the ideas that were coming to you last night, the technologies that will soon be released on planet for the betterment of humankind, they’re coming. If you desire to be part of that and to help that along, then we absolutely encourage you to put your energy there, to put your resources there. It’s just another form of being of service.

If that’s what you desire, then make that a creation. Make that part of your future. Whether you do or you don’t, does not matter. Whatever it is that you choose to do, you will do so, as is your natural way of being, you will exude the wisdom that is within you, for it cannot sit still. It wants to be expressed.

So be that channel. Be that blessing to others.

And I would suggest, since it is also on your mind, the interaction that you had recently with your leadership at work that you found bothersome, do not worry about it. Again, with your presence, you are exuding the wisdom that is within you, for you cannot do otherwise.

But I would suggest that if it does bother you, then take an active part in expressing that, helping the others. But as we both know, this is just something that happens, something to teach you, something as an indicator to look within yourself. Why does that interaction bother you? There is something there for you. And more often than not, it is tugging on those old strings, that whole notion of lack of self-worth, of judging yourself. Let that go.

Well, I think I’ve spoken enough for the moment. I would be happy to take questions if anyone has any. Otherwise, I’ll just sit here and enjoy the view. 🙂

Lao Tzu on Humility and Finding Peace

Rob: So I’m in my sacred landscape, and I’m going down to the water. And at the edge of the water is a tree with a big rock, a boulder, underneath it. Lao Tzu is there, sitting on the rock, waiting for me. So I’m taking a seat next to him in the shade of the tree.

So since I drew a card on humility, and because humility is one of the Blessings and Virtues, and in fact, I had chosen it as one of the Keys to Self, I probably would have said I know what I need to know about humility. But I acknowledge, also, there’s always more.

So do you have anything to share with me, something I don’t know, perhaps about myself and my own attitudes, my own beliefs, about humility?

Lao Tzu: Greetings, Rob. So nice of you to join me here [on] this pleasant day, enjoying the calm by the water’s edge. And the calm is important. It seems to be a theme — slow down, take time out to just enjoy the peace.

At the end of the day, that’s really what humans need to learn — how to go through this life, any life, in a state of peace and calm. It is fine to be excited about something new, learning something new, experiencing something new. That brings the joy.

But at the end of the day, the lasting contentment comes from the peace, leaving the turmoil behind, centering yourself and going within in order to find that place of calm, to find that place that really speaks to who you really are. For at the end of the day, nothing that happens out there — there in the physical world — can affect you unless you allow it.

And as soon as you accept that, firmly believe that, it stops affecting you; it stops disturbing your calm, your peace. It’s just something that’s happening. It’s all just happening for your entertainment and, yes, perhaps for you to learn something, to witness a scenario play out so that you may understand all sides, so that you can fully grasp the depth of whatever the situation is, whatever it is that you have to learn, that you have chosen to learn.

There is nothing you have to do in this life or any other. It is all based on the plan of what it is that you have set out to learn, set out to experience. So why would any of that disturb your peace? It only does if you allow it. But I am asking, why would you allow it?

Think of it as sitting in a classroom … as you’re sitting in the chair, waiting for the teacher to present their lecture, present the material, whatever form that is, do you feel anxious about that? Do you feel a lack of calm and peace while you’re sitting there absorbing what the teacher is offering? Most likely not. So why would you feel any different about your own experiences that you have chosen as a means to teach you? It’s no different.

The point is, to get to that state, one has to acknowledge at all times that you are divine, that you are a divine spirit who is simply choosing a set of experiences in order to learn or in order to just have fun as a source of entertainment. So none of this should be taken too seriously. The trick is, if I could call it a trick, is to keep in mind at all times [to] never forget who you are. If you are operating from that perspective, then all the rest of it, all of the turmoil in the world, just seems silly to allow that to disturb your own peace.

So the notion of humility is simply understanding, operating from the perspective, that God is your only source, for God is all that there is. You hear at times people refer to God as “All That Is,” and it is true … and you are part of that. You are part of the All, therefore you also are All That Is!

That’s not to be taken in any way as boastful. No, it is operating from a position of humility that you are nothing without the God Source within you. You would not be here without that. None of us would be.

And think of the majesty of ALL of what that means, the complexity involved, the magnificence involved, and yes, THOU ART THAT, that is living from a position of humility and respect for who you are.

I hope that has helped. Perhaps your teammate has some questions for us.

My Higher Self on Unity Consciousness and How to Change the World

[The image below is the closest I can find to how my Higher Self, Sam-u-el, appears to me, except his garments are white or cream … and he doesn’t have pointy ears!  🤣 And speaking of pointy, Sam-u-el felt rather direct and pointed with this particular lesson. — Rob]

Rob: So I’m envisioning myself at the house, as it were, of my higher self, Sam-u-el. I see him, and, as usual, we’re just sitting on the front steps.

I don’t know particularly what to talk about, so I will leave it open to you — whatever you think is most useful for me at this time … for any of us at this time.

Sam-u-el: Hello again, Rob. Hello, all. It’s nice to speak with you again. We don’t do this as often as I would like, but that is entirely up to you.

You often say, Rob, that you don’t have anything in particular to talk about, but you don’t need to have anything to talk about. Just connecting — connecting with me, in particular, but anyone in the Company of Heaven — is a way of expressing why you are here. As you have acknowledged through the Infinity Keys and writing that book that at the end of that whole pathway, it all comes down to one lesson — You Are Love! You can be nothing else, for there is nothing else.

So all lessons, all experiences, all joys are an expression leading to that one realization.

The question of unity consciousness comes down to that one point. You are one with all, because you are all love. Again, there is nothing else, so when you see everything around you — all experiences in your life — as an expression of some form of love, and you connect with that and feel yourself to be part of that, to be co-creator of the situation that you’re going through, whether you see it as a good experience or a challenging experience, it’s all for your higher good, your highest good.

And we are all here to help you to orchestrate that those things should happen the way that they do in order to help you ultimately to come to that realization. All the lifetimes of struggle are simply to get you to understand this is NOT what life is meant to be. And as soon as you come to THAT point and realize, “I don’t want this anymore; I just want peace, and I want the joy in experiencing love for what it has to offer,” then you begin to change.

The external world changes ONLY when you change internally — your belief system. What you believe to be true manifests in the outward experience; if you don’t like that experience, if that seems overly challenging and unnecessary, then change what you believe. That is a choice. It’s as simple as that.

Although many will tell you — many of your guides who have experienced life in human form — that this can be very difficult. Granted, it may not be easy to change the training of experiences, spread out over millennia, potentially thousands of lifetimes, teaching you what life in human form is all about, but your human form is not who you are.

Stop looking within the system for the place to change the system, for that’s not how it is set up!
