Two messages arrive this week to guide us, Peaceful Warrior from Archangel Ariel and Unconditional Love from The Divine Mother. The white orange wings of Archangel Ariel are framing her in a powerful stance, she holds up her left palm to you and sends out a golden ray of energy, and in her right hand she has a glowing staff. Ariel wears a lion shaped brooch to remind us that she is a protector of animals. Her neck is adorned with a multi-beaded necklace in green, brown, yellow, orange and red, and she wears golden cuffs on her lower arms. Her face is painted with green, yellow and red marks. Ariel’s message is that you can be a warrior and be peaceful at the same time. You deserve to be all that you can be and to be this safely. You don’t have to be scared anymore of putting your full self out there for people to see.
The Divine Mother is holding us in a gentle look, with hands folded in prayer she is sending us a blessing. She has a pale blue cloak and there are stars around her halo and the five petaled rose is visible in the background. She asks you to trust that all forms of love are near you, and that you are not alone. By staying close to The Divine Mother you can be healed of past wounds and feel a new sense of self-worth when receiving love.
The two female energies are complementing each other. Ariel brings strength and she wants you to stay grounded and honour your female power, and your intellectual and instinctual gifts. The Divine Mother arrives to reassure you of unconditional love and that all will be well.
Meditation with Archangel Ariel and The Divine Mother
Try this meditation with Archangel Ariel and The Divine Mother.
Sit down in a quiet space. Take a few deep breaths and relax.
Look at the images of Archangel Ariel and The Divine Mother. Call in their energies and sense how they are healing you. Look into the eyes of Ariel and observe how she is making you feel peaceful and clearing any stagnation and blocks which hinder you to move forward. Then focus on The Divine Mother and observe how she gazes at you with her calming eyes. Take note on how the energies of both women are complementing each other and making you feel grounded. The pale blue colour of The Divine Mother is soothing your throat chakra and making you speak your truth. Ariel’s yellow and orange gold is strengthening your solar plexus and offering support and protection from people depleting your energy.
Stay in meditation for 5 to 10 minutes.
After the meditation, journal about the below questions.
How can you receive and give the love of The Divine Mother?
What is your perception of the Peaceful Warrior? How can you embody her grounded strength?
Additional practice – Venus and Rose
Spend time during the Venus retrograde, 13 May to 25 June, to contemplate and journal your personal thoughts on love, and how you give and receive love. Remember that you have both Archangel Ariel and The Divine Mother within you, and both aspects are equally important when honouring your strengths and weaknesses.
Since the rose is the sacred flower of The Divine Mother, spend time meditating with roses once a day during Venus retrograde. Buy one rose, or several, from your local flower shop, choose the colour which attracts you most. Then place the rose in a vase in your home, in a location where you can see it everyday. Sit next to it once a day in silent contemplation and honour your connection with The Divine Mother. When meditating at sunrise and sunset you will also bring in the healing light of Archangel Ariel since she is associated with the lion and his ruler, the sun.
May both divine beings grace you with their love and power.
