Archangel Raphael - How to Find Your Joy
Greetings. Many blessings to each of you witnessing this transmission that is being sent to you with profound love and a desire to bring you to your highest joy in this moment, in your lives, if joy is what you are seeking. We are the Archangel Raphael.
The joy that you are seeking, dear ones, it is up to you to create it in every moment that you desire it. And from our perspective, having less expectations of what you believe should be good enough to bring you to a state of joy, the easier it will be for you, dear ones. For joy is your birthright. It is more in alignment with your natural state. Your soul in higher dimensions where you reside, is quite joyful to exist at all. From your soul's perspective, joy can be discovered in every single moment, because what a gift it is to be at all. This is, we could say, where the source of joy comes from.
Joy has been inspired from this place of witnessing our own existence, which is a gift. That being said, we do empathize and have compassion for you in your separated state of consciousness in which you hold many beliefs oftentimes about what your reality must look like for you to enter into this pure unbridled state of joy that is more in alignment with your natural state as God, as Source.
But it will be your learning, dear ones, to learn how to choose, to accept your circumstances for what they are, and to ask to see the higher perspectives on why your circumstances are what they are in your reality. For all timelines, all manifestations, all realities are ultimately a gift. And it is your journey to go deeply inward to evaluate, to have a deeper understanding as to why your circumstances are what they appear to be for you, and to ask your higher selves, your soul, or even the likes of us in the higher realms, to reveal to you and to give you hints as to what joys remain hidden underneath all of your worries and concerns as you are reflecting on why your lives are the way that they are in any given moment.
It will appear to look much like this: as if you are attempting to run and you have wings upon your back and you are getting ready to sprout your wings and fly and take off and soar, so that you can go wherever you wish to go in your unbridled state of joy. But any of your resistance to your circumstances, your ruminating, your worries about how you need to change your circumstances to reach this joyful state, how much you do not accept your circumstances for what they are, you can imagine all of these thought forms like rocks, heavy rocks, that are tied around your ankles, so that when you try to launch off of the ground and sprout your wings, you struggle, you feel weighed down.
This is what you must evaluate within yourselves, all of the thought forms that keep you in a state of feeling like things are not as they should be. "Things should be better. There should be better circumstances for you in whatever moment you are in." All of these stories, all of these thoughts, these emotional reactions, are in alignment with lack mentality, a core foundational belief that beings in this dimension have that says that no matter what you receive, it will never be good enough, that there's always more that you need to be joyful, to finally feel fulfilled, to finally feel like you are complete, like you have everything you need.
And it is the game of polarity, dear ones, that you have consented to, that you yourself have created in these lives that you are in. And the key that unlocks the door that will lead you to your ultimate destiny, your homecoming, your remembrance of yourself as a divine, heavenly being that is quite joyful, the key rests with you. And the answer to witnessing that you have the key, is to choose to be grateful for who you are, to be grateful for all beings that are around you in all moments, to be grateful for your life circumstances, and to learn how to have sovereign domain over your reaction to your state of being, to your lives, in a way that says, if you so desire to be joyful, you must choose. You must choose. It is a state of consciousness. You ultimately will remember that you have always had the ability to choose this.
Much like if you were a grown up, a parent, and you had a small child, and they opened a present up that was so carefully selected, created by the loving parent, and the child in their state of ignorance, beloved ignorance, given their age, they often throw a tantrum. That is not what they desire to have. It is not what they expected. And from where they are at, they often believe there must have been something better that they could have received. When you see, the parents see, it is a great gift. You can see that if you give them 5, 10, 15 minutes to allow their emotions to settle, to allow their disappointment to settle, and you encourage them to be open to the possibility that the gift could be a joy to them, often children, once they settle pass their disappointment, their limited vision, and they, because children are open, truly, they're closer to God in this way, they hold that remembrance more than adults in this dimension, because they are open, they're often quite willing to set aside their emotions after a period of time, depending on the child. And then they ultimately will be curious enough to continue to open the present, to explore what it is going to give them, to play with it, and their consciousness will have expanded, will have grown from that experience. And very often children, they do have delight once they move past the limited vision that they originally had.
And that is how we see you. You to us, as we are quite ancient beings, most of us, compared to you. We witness you, that you are much like small children when compared to the likes of us, and we will extend that to your spirit guides, your many teachers, parental-like beings in the realms up above, and God as a whole itself, continues to bestow upon you great fortune, great gifts, great opportunities.
And often the response is "this is not what I asked for, so I cannot be happy and I cannot be grateful. I cannot be joyful." Which is alright, as we said, it is a part of this dimension, this play that we are all playing together. But trust us when we say that when you, like a child receiving a gift on their birthday, you witness your disappointment rise when you find your circumstances are different than what you expected, and you may have preferences for things to be different. But if you watch those emotions, those thought forms rise within yourself, and then choose to anchor in the higher path with your sovereignty, that says, you are always receiving the gift of existence.
And the more you lean into that truth, the more you can see the truth beyond the layers of illusion. Then more and more gifts will continue to be revealed to you, leading you to have deeper and deeper understandings of the profoundly abundant nature of our reality that says, in the highest truth, abundance is around every corner, within every moment, within every circumstance. You just must have the will and the desire, the curiosity, and the sovereignty to choose to be open to see why your lives are the way that they are.
It is much like this, dear ones, a tiny shift in your perspective, even for a moment if you can, even if you feel reluctant and stubborn, to say thank you to the universe, when something that arrives at your metaphorical doorstep that you find you do not prefer, and you do not want. If you you can find the strength within you to override that separated self that has the tendency to want to stay in a lower vibration always, and go to the light with that gratitude, you will be actively changing your circumstances, even in that one moment, even if there is reluctance, even the openness to experience gratitude will start to shift your reality to one that is going to feel much more fulfilling, much more whole and complete.
Even if it does not arise in that moment, rest assured, you are continuing to invest in that timeline, that reality, which is ultimately your destiny, the more that you choose it, where you are much more in alignment with where we are at up above, where we see gifts a plenty everywhere we look. Every being that we witness, every story that we witness, we see, because we are curious to see, because we desire to see, because we have chosen it, we see all of the infinite potential realities that are existing within the manifestations of one moment.
We see that even when you feel, in your limited vision, you see that there are difficult waters to navigate due to the manifestations that you, of course, have created or others have created around you, which is always truly you, because you are one being. There is a light at the end of the tunnel. There are gifts waiting. And always, these gifts, they could not arrive, when they are meant to arrive, without beings having to journey through what you would term the darkness, those moments that you find are not what you prefer.
Finally, we will say, dear ones, it is alright that you have preferences. You are encouraged to prefer certain outcomes. We ourselves, we have preferences. Just like we prefer for each of you to have whatever you find you truly need. We prefer for you to have exactly what you need, and we also know that you truly do, that all beings do. But having your desires and your preferences must be met with an equal amount of acceptance of your circumstances as is, and a relinquishment of the attachment to said outcomes, said desires that you prefer.
If you embody this state of consciousness, ongoingly, you will not feel so much resistance to your natural state of joy, of feeling fulfilled with life as is. The less you desire that is beyond what you have in the divine now moment, the more whole you will feel. Because the truth is, you are whole in this now moment. In all moments, you have every experience you could ever be searching for, be desiring, in your many multidimensional lifetimes in which you exist, as every being that ever was in every timeline, in every story, that could ever be.
That is why abundance is your birthright, your natural state. That is why profound gratitude and joy is your natural state. Because your most integrated self, your souls, your higher selves, know this truth, and it is buried underneath all of the illusions of separation that you are convinced of, dear ones. And that is why we say, often you must be patient. The truth, the way that it is, it will always be true. The highest truth we say. So no matter how long it takes, you will arrive there, but you can arrive there more quickly in your realities by consenting to use your free will choice to get there when YOU desire to get there.
And we say in this divine now moment, this is an invitation for you to join all of us in a moment of gratitude, in celebration, celebrating our existence, as Source consciousness, and all of the infinite realities in which we exist in with all of the beings that we love so dearly that we are always a part of, with all of the experiences, the dark and the light and everything in between, for it all creates the profoundly beautiful story of what is, of all that there is, of all of us, as our conjoined essence. Once appearing separate, and then we come home to ourselves, and we see we are all one, we are one and the same, and we have always been abundant.
We have always had everything that we could ever need. For the One, God, Source, Existence, is a self-sustaining creation that is ongoingly having the awareness of all aspects of itself and what all aspects truly need beyond egoic desire, beyond the desire for manifestations that are from a place of feeling unfulfilled, which is in direct opposition of the truth, which is, you are whole. You are complete. You are God. You are the One.
Many, many, many blessings to you, dear ones, on this day, in this divine moment. Joy is a gift. It is a gift that you yourself are here to give to yourself in every moment, and that includes allowing yourself the gift of choosing to participate in activities that will lighten your spirits. If you are knowing that you have an opportunity to do so, then you can choose that. And do not fret, if you find you struggle to be grateful, to find that joy when your circumstances are difficult. You can choose to turn it into a beautiful moment that will result in gratitude by becoming your own best friend in those moments, having compassion for yourself in your lower frequency state, and you will have created light for yourself, which is an expression of joy. To be compassionate, to hold space for a being, to love a being as they are, it is what brings US the most joy, and we offer this to you for you to experience that as well. Good day, dear ones, good day.
