Have you been allowing someone to run roughshod over you at home or at work? Do you have a friend who only shows up when they need something from you? Do you feel angry, bitter, or taken-advantage-of? The angels say that it is high time that you begin the practice of setting healthy boundaries. They say, "Being kind, compassionate and loving does not mean that you are a doormat and that you can never say 'no' to others."
They remind me that setting healthy boundaries is not selfish or mean - it is a profound act of self-love and self-care. Allowing others to treat you poorly or take advantage of you is a form of abuse, and as a Divine child of the Creator, you do not deserve to be used or abused by anyone for any reason.
Maintaining good, healthy, loving boundaries will allow you to have positive, healthy, loving relationships with friends, family, and co-workers while allowing yourself to be used and treated poorly until you explode in anger only hurts everyone around you, confusing and upsetting everyone when you finally reach your limit.
Today is also a time to examine the way you are managing your life right now. Have you become overly rigid or controlling? Are you unable to take the time to just "be," allowing yourself to go with the flow of the day without making any plans or feeling like you need to be "doing something."
The angels remind me that constantly existing in "work" mode wears away at you. Never taking time to rest, relax, and replenish only leads to burnout. They ask you to set aside the responsible adult side of yourself for a day, an afternoon, or even an hour, and instead embrace your inner child. Take some time to laugh, walk barefoot in the grass, daydream, color, or just go with the flow of life without making any set plans. Have an adventure! And make sure you have some FUN!!

~*~ Let Go and Flow ~*~
Our Ego is a rigid control freak. It hates to have its plans derailed, to have to deal with sudden complications or detours along its pre-designed path. This card comes as a gentle nudge from Spirit asking you to examine what areas of your life you have become too rigid or controlling in. The angels say, "Becoming rigid or controlling and resisting change are all signs of fear. The Ego lives in a world completely ruled by fear and worry while Spirit lives in a world of peace and flexibility."
With this card, you are being asked to embrace flexibility. Practice taking a deep breath and letting go of all of your fears, worries, and need to control everything as you exhale. Pick a day and practice just going with the flow instead of planning everything out. Then make a habit of having these sorts of days more often!
~*~ Child ~*~
With this card, our Guardian Angels are asking us to reconnect to that feeling of childlike wonder. Look at the world as though everything is MAGIC! Allow yourself to play silly games, to really feel your joy, to laugh out loud, find fantasy shapes in the clouds, to daydream and imagine how wonderful life could be! When you release your adult need to control and be responsible every minute of every day, you open the channels of joy, creativity, and Divine inspiration! You unblock the flow of abundance into your life and unstick blocked energy of all kinds.
