Alison Wynne-Ryder The Quirky Medium

New beginnings are on the cards... Not just because we are a couple of days away from a New Year, but because many people are now realising that their life belongs to them - no-one else, and chords are finally being cut.  Change can be unsettling but it can also be very rewarding as the new cannot enter until the old and outworn has been cast aside - hence the expression out with the old, and in with the new!

Today as I was walking the dog there was a 'bird' thing going on and very nice it was too!  Just like angels, birds are messengers and denote spreading your wings and soaring to new hight's. Know that this is possible once you have dealt with things that no longer serve you as you move forward on your life's path.  First of all I listened to a beautiful song-bird - I couldn't see it, but heard it with such clarity.  I then saw the regal swans - have you ever watched a pair of swans as they glide across the water? they are full of grace and synchronicity - their heads turned at exactly the same time and back again - I could feel the trust and connection between them.  Just as I was walking back from my nature walk I saw a flash of red and a gorgeous robin landed on a branch by me.  I stood still to watch him and he stared back at me - we stayed like that for ages until a group of people walked by and he flew off. It is often said that a robin represents a loved one from the spirit world who will pop by to say hello.  Did you know that the robin also asks you to let go of anything stagnant in your life and plant seeds for the new by setting your goals and intentions for the coming year?  Very befitting!

So what does the New Year herald for you all? I would love to hear your positive thoughts, resolutions or wishes if you are happy to share.  Personally I am working on a few new ventures - as some of you know I have written the majority of an on-line angel course that I will be publishing in 2014. More information will be published soon.  Many personal changes are coming to fruition which I will tell you about soon and in terms of work, I will be informing you of forthcoming angel workshops, Reiki attunements, Spiritual Development classes and Angelic Reiki treatments - this is to name a few! Exciting times ahead..

Not only does a new year mean to move away from people who take your energy, or situations that drain you, but it is also a good idea to physically de-clutter around the house.  This is part of what I teach people at my angel classes and those who have attended will confirm that although this is very simple advice, it really works!.  Do you have photographs of someone who has hurt you in the past, or have you held onto something that brings back bad memories? Why are you hoarding?  Get rid!  Once you do, you will find that things will start slotting into place in the right way and you will feel much brighter and happier about where you are going. Instead of wondering what will happen and looking too far ahead you will be content enough to live in the moment.  That is when miracles start to happen - when you least expect them.

So it just leaves me to say a Very Happy New Year from The Quirky Medium!  May all your wishes come true in 2014 - I will be having a cheers to you as the clock strikes 12 and although I may be thousands of miles away from some of you, know that I am thinking of you and sending love and blessings your way.
