QUESTION

I am 42 and my husband died suddenly six months ago. We were married 10 years and we were never blessed with a family. There are days I feel like I can’t go on living without him. I am sick to the teeth of well meaning family and friends with their futile comments like ‘It was his time to go, he’s in a better place, God only takes the best’. It’s relentless and I just want to be left alone, and not told I will get over it and meet someone new. I think these comments are cruel and would rather hear nothing. I am even beginning to lose my faith. My husband was so full of life and a very good person. Why was he taken so young? L.

ANSWER

First please accept my sincere condolences. It is very difficult when death happens suddenly and unexpectedly and at a young age. There are no words anyone can say to relieve your grief. People are generally well-meaning but as you say words at a time like this are futile. You will go through the many stages of grief in your own way and time frame.

It is important however, to realise that your loved one would want you to be happy. Your faith in God and the after life are being tested right now, and that is when we need to keep our faith strong.

It isn’t always easy, so one day at a time and if that is too much - as it sometimes may be - take it one hour at a time.

÷ FIRST CARD: QUIET TIME

Shhh, dear one. Quiet your mind. Breathe and let go of words, worry, and plans. Go into that space of silence deep within you, that vortex of peace where the world doesn’t enter.

Now is the time to retreat in silence and spend time alone. The angels will lovingly help you rejuvenate and re-centre yourself. Don’t try to make any decisions now. Just allow your mind to be at rest. You’ll know soon enough when it’s time to take action. But for now, quiet your mind. Rest.

÷ ADVICE/OBSTACLE: END OF A CYCLE)

You may feel sad, as if your heart is breaking, as result of this ending. Allow yourself to cry and grieve, but know that the angels are near you right now. When you are ready, they will gently show you how this ending brings new blessings into your life.

It is important for you to express your feelings during this time of transition. Either keep a journal, talk to trusted friends, join a support group, or discuss everything with the angels. The more that you can release, the freer that you will feel.

Watch out for self-destructive tendencies, which can arise from misguided guilt. The angels will help you take excellent care of yourself during this transition if you call upon them. Whenever you need comfort just call upon them and you will feel them envelop you with their wings.

÷ OUTCOME: LIFE EXPERIENCE

A recent event has been a wake-up call for you to make some life changes. This is both a moment of freedom and awakening. The way you see yourself and the world has changed, bringing you growth and encouraging you to spread your wings. Allow these new insights to embrace the path of your heart’s true desire and use your intuition.
