A Goddess for the weekend: Lakshmi

An excerpt from my bookThe Complete Encyclopedia of Angels

Finding creative solutions

Creating abundance

Discovering the perfect career

Procuring a fabulous place to live

Hooking you up with the love of your life

Invocation:

Lakshmi adores the color pink. If you can find a pink lotus flower, float it in a bowl of water or find a floating pink candle and light that instead. Say a blessing and then ask for her help. Just explain the problem and ask for her guidance to find a solution.


Lakshmi is a Hindu goddess who represents abundance, prosperity and wealth. She was known as the Mother Earth Goddess who arose from the primordial sea of milk often found in Hindu legends. She is often depicted as a beautiful golden-brown woman with four arms. Generally she is shown resting on a lotus flower. As the consort of Vishnu she is often shown washing his feet as he sits on the thousand-headed serpent. She is the embodiment of the active female principle of Shakti in the male god.

Lakshmi will show you how to take definitive action when necessary and how to surrender and let go when that is the best course of action. Lakshmi is a wonderful teacher who brings balance into any situations. She knows how to relax and enjoy life, savoring every moment. She is always associated with the lotus flower which is the symbol of spiritual growth and enlightenment.

When you call on Lakshmi it is best to ask her guidance before you decide on a course of action. As the goddess of abundance, she will help you create plenty of whatever you want. She can help you create an abundance of trauma and drama as well as of happiness and joy, but when asked for her wisdom she will always guide you toward joy.

With love and aloha,
Susan

What is an angel?
I get that question a lot. The best answer I have is they are pure, expansive unconditional love. They embrace us always. They surround us with their love and I've been told that unless we ask they won't interfere in our lives. I guess that is true except my life has been saved more than once by som

Angels are your friends
I get so many e mails asking me how to work with angels. The other day I got a phone call from a woman who had bought my book and wanted to recover some stolen money. As we talked she became more and more disappointed. She seemed to expect the gods to smite this person for what they had done and imm
