Hi Amanda,
I believe you are exactly as you should be at this time. Enjoying the peace of meditation is really quite an accomplishment as so many people get derailed in the early attemps when trying to quiet their raging thoughts. So you have already developed a fabulous place within...and you feel great! Well done! Truly, in my opinion, that is most important. Yet I understand completely the need to understand more and find how all these prompts are meant for you. I would feel a tad frustrated too.
As you probably know, sometimes the delivery of the celestial answers and messages are not always what we expect. They often are geared to our own personal way of intuiting. Some people seem to hear with their ears, some "hear" with their minds while others see celestials face to face, some intuit messages through colors and scenes and quick flashes of pictures or photos in the mind and some "feel" the celestials about and feel the desired message, and then some walk through the world and are swept away by the emotion of the entire rainbow of sensations interpreted in the amazing life around them. There are many ways to intuit messages and feel spiritual upliftment. So ask yourself is there an expectation one way or the other in the way you wish to receive a message or derive spiritual growth?
Here is a rather strange example from my own experience that sort of illustrates how the messages can be missed. Four or five years ago, George and I took a drive down the coast and found ourselves in a smallish town with a lovely community park overlooking a beautiful harbor and bay. We sat comfortably on a bench and as we watched a sailboat passed by through what appeared to be clear water. But all at once, it came to a grinding halt and began to list to one side. Unknown to the small crew, there were rocks just under the surface and so they became hopelessly stuck there despite their best efforts and those of amateur boaters who tried to assist them. They eventually found experienced help after an hour or so when the Australian equivalent of the Coast Guard was able to reach them and pull them from harm's way. That evening I was telling a dear friend about this incident and out of the blue she said, "There is a lesson or a message in what you witnessed for you!"
She advised me to place it in my mind with a question and desired understanding. Well I did and sure enough she was right and it had to do with my own floundering in my meditation and needing help. The help came from the "Big Guy/Gal," the Universe Source, who knew just what to do to pull me off the rocks. So I guess the point I was trying to make with this long drawn out story
is that sometimes we are receiving and we don't realize it. Sometimes the message is there and we simply don't see it and then, sometimes, we already have that safety line already in our grasp.
Oh I know, it is confusing and I too find myself twisted at times trying to figure out the steps in the "universe puzzel" and how it relates to me... but I believe the answers will come and often when you least expect it. So keep entering your special inner place with joy and I have no doubt all you desire will come to you and at the best time for you too.
I'm sorry I can't be more help... it seems the way finds us...rather than we find the way.
Now, that didn't make sense even to me.
But anyway, Amanda, I am so glad you have joined this friendly group. It's nice to meet you!
Love,
Sandy
... I also see lots of matching numbers and number sequences like 1234 or 3456. I have tried to announce that I am aware that something or someone is trying to communicate with me, but I never get any impression that anything exceptional happens. I have meditated and meditate and continue to meditate. I have purchased the Akashic construct and have tried it, but I still don't get anything. Anyway, I know that I'm capable of communication, and I have meditated for years and have had great success, and truly love to still my mind and be at peace. The moral of this is that I have no idea what to do with all these time prompts. I'm not sure what else to do and I'm a little frustrated. If any one out there can offer any support or advice I would most lovingly and willingly welcome it!!
