Soul takeaways for December:

* Sit in your heart

* You decide who you invite into your heart space

* Feel free to forgive

* Give love

Being in your heart is the best place that you can be.

You can be lifted, with your feet off the ground and out of the earth that you know, but if you reside in your heart you will never be lost.

 
This month, the message for you is very clear.

 
Sit in your heart.

 
This is the only place for you to reside over the month. Throughout all the busyness, the noise – the love and laughter – your soul will be best served when you act, speak and love straight from your heart.

 
Take a moment to find yourself there.

 
Close your eyes.

 
Take a deep breath in and allow yourself to truly release as you exhale.

 
Imagine the orb of glowing light right in the centre of your chest. From the point of this tiny little pilot light you can see a warm glow begin to grow.

 
Watch as a deep green light expands from this point, growing larger and larger until it fills your entire being.

 
This is your heart space. Allow yourself to reside in it.

 
Know that you can always come back here any time you feel out of your body or unsure of how to react.

 
This place is yours and yours alone. Only those you invite in can enter this space.

 
You may hold them here as long as you like and release them whenever you need.

 
Forgiveness is particularly powerful at this time of year.

 
If there is a grudge, resentment or hurt that you are holding onto that is causing you more pain to keep than to release then let it go. Just let it go. Calm your mind and remind yourself that letting go does not diminish the reality of the pain that was felt. Nor does it negate the wrongdoing of the situation.

 
You are simply giving yourself permission to hold less hurt in your body by letting it go.

“Beautiful one, you deserve every happiness that this life can bring you. I wish for you the freedom to feel the love and joy that is available to you. I need not for you to hurt, to judge or to feel lost. I am always here for you and will help you each step of the way. Allow me to carry and release some of your burdens for you. Allow me to bear the brunt of the pain so that you can feel free. You are perfect, angelic and full of bliss. This was the core of who you were created to be and this is where I wish you to return to. Fill your being with love. Allow your heart to give.”

 
Place yourself deeply in the centre of your heart this month and know that in doing so you will be able to live the fullest and most satisfying life.

 
In giving love – to yourself and others – you receive love.

 
For that is the nature of giving.
