 Hey there and welcome to my channel. This is Christine with Art of Awakening and I'm going to do today just kind of a channel painting video um lately. I usually when I work I've got usually I have YouTube on um you know just whatever whatever wants to come on because it's on auto and um the day this beautiful music came on it was Tchaikovsky's him of the cherubim and it really struck me. I mean it really moved me almost to tears. I mean it was just very moving and so I started listening to it over and over and over again um it comes from a longer piece of his it's made up of a bunch of little pieces called the the liturgy of saint john somebody or other so uh so I've got that playing in the background right now um but what it did was I think you know sometimes the music the music and art they all carry the energy energy within it and in this case Tchaikovsky was definitely channeling the cherubim. I didn't know a lot a lot about cherubim usually you hear about you know you see the little cherubs and they're very cute and quaint little Victorian cherubs little babies with wings well so you know after I've been listening to this for a while and it was really I mean I could feel a lot of shifts happening in my field from this music uh so I got curious and I started looking up what are the cherubim and I found so some very interesting kind of mythology around that um they appeared in various ways depending on different traditions and sometimes they are like the babies but they're in order of angels they're supposed to be just below the seraphim and you can look them up but one of the things that I found was that they're not always showing up as babies um and in one account they show up as these four faced angels that guard the Garden of Eden and and they're they're so bright you can't even look at them they're they're very very powerful and so after I'd read that I was going around the roof and then they just said draw me so that this is a painting that's kind of coming out of that sketch that I did I did a sketch in my journal around that um after they asked me to draw them so this is a cherub probably not like any cherub you've ever seen before but with the four faces the idea is that they can go in any direction without turning so they're they're really focused right and no matter what direction they're going and kind of I'm getting a few things out of this number four well first of all that the idea of guarding the Garden of Eden um and I'm assuming I didn't I'd have to go back and read it but this would have been probably after the fall um and by the way you know I I think all all traditions all spiritual traditions are beautiful and they all have truth in them so I'm not like you know you don't have to be Christian to appreciate this I really love myth of all kinds wherever it comes from so um but you know I love the symbolism of the Garden of Eden because I think that's coming up a lot lately for a lot of people a dog here a dog here over there because really I think the shift that's happening right now on the planet it's really I think the idea is you know we're gonna be returning to that state that state and and maybe that's part of what the cherubs are about when they appear is young children or babies because that's a state of innocence and a state of um you know the Garden of Eden represents really that primal um state before corruption happens and we see that like in nature nature left alone that would be the Garden of Eden before it got messed with and it's still there it is still there like every time if you go out in the woods or go in nature there it is it's right there it's it's it's we've never left it we just have left it in our minds right I mean there's been some systematic destroying of it but I think you know if we start focusing on that destruction then we only feed into it so yes it's we need to be aware of it we may need to take steps away from that destruction you know whatever we can do but it's it's super important because I know a lot of people who are concerned about the earth they really focus on that destruction and and and they get all emotional I mean like that I like I understand because I feel that way you know I I love the earth and I love nature and I don't want to see it destroyed and it's very upsetting but when you start feeling all this despair around it that just honestly the emotions are what we create with and when we start creating a lot of despair around the destruction of nature I mean that that honestly feeds into it so I think part of what this is about what they're saying here is you know first of all if you're not you know that's what the angels always say they say fear not right and so you know there is this like yes we're here we've never left it but on the other hand there's also the sense of guarding it right of not being able to enter and what is that it's like it's it's transcending the ego because we're never gonna actually really like we're always here it's always there it would never left it but but we think we have right the ego has left it our soul hasn't left it right our our higher self or it's always been available to us we could step into it at any time we want our ego has left it and so the idea is it's like I really get this like the wings of this thing they're like swords they're like very sharp swords they're like razor sharp and I'm not this isn't blood this is more like flames right so it's flames I'm getting and sword like you know in the wings themselves and what it's really saying it's like you know you need to be you're gonna have to be pure enough like you're gonna have to pass this right to pass through it and that is what is happening right now with us and we're getting there I think a lot of us are getting there and we're getting there you know the earth is getting there and collectively as human beings we're getting there and it's not as impossible as I'm making it sound because they have this heart right the cherub has this beautiful heart and loves us and is very compassionate and wants us to get through really so it's not like this guardian that's that's that's you know against us it's this guardian that's for us and the reason they're guarding it is that they want us to be happy and we've already you know approved that you can't go in the garden of Eden you've got to be aligned right in order to see it for what it is and to enter um and so it's it's really just a visual reminder that we can we can't go back we are going back we're already there we've never left it and that all this purification that we've been doing every lightworker that I know every star seat that I know has gone through a lot and even if it's not in this lifetime if you're aware enough to be watching this and to follow me this this far you've had significant trauma in whether it's past lives or this life um so they're saying you know you're doing good work that you're almost there if you've gotten to this point of seeing this apparition that you're almost in like you're you're on the threshold or maybe you're even in and you don't like like I said we don't even know it so this is the last this is the last little bit that these represent okay and actually even if you feel like you're completely not at the threshold and spending time with like this image will help to get you there because this is the threshold right um I hope I'm making sense because I'm just sort of seeing what's coming through and I'm using a couple different parts of my brain right now so it's uh it tends to get a little more scrambled than it should but but I think I've just been guided that you know doing this along with the painting they're speaking through it and even though I'm an imperfect translator they're still asking me to do it and maybe that's part of the lesson like you we don't have to be perfect in order to be pure enough to get there I think that's a big part of the lesson like I'm certainly not being a wonderful channel right now I'm just not you know it's it's all convoluted and it's all but they're saying it's okay do it anyway so part of what the message is is if you're feeling called to share your experiences or share your insights or share you know if you have insights or wisdom that you're being called or you know your attention is being drawn to it will we will help other people um so they're saying you know don't don't feel like you're not good enough even if you haven't arrived yet because you are good enough more than good enough you are perfect and the only reason we feel we're not perfect is that we're on this creative journey altogether collectively as a human race this is a creative journey that we're on and creation the act of creation if you've ever given birth you know it gets messy and it gets painful but that's what they're saying though is like you know you you are perfect and whatever you're going through it's not a reflection of your imperfection it's a reflection of being reflections here this is like water a water pool of fire or something um it's a reflection of your divine journey that's what it is so part of the lesson is gratitude deep gratitude this is the heart here heart of it it showed me this beautiful flaming heart in the center and if you see in the center there's a heart and there's flames coming out of the heart too and flames all around but if you're in the heart and I see almost this little childlike image coming up from the heart and right there in the heart you're safe it's a safety zone okay so being in the middle like this number four four faces you can't see the other face because I have to I'm not doing this in two dimensions but it's it's a four faced angel and four is a number that is associated with the angels or the archangels it's a very powerful number it stands for it represents like solidity and stability and you know security safety amongst other things um so so this is touching on the idea of faith and trust it's trusting like if you've been drawn to watch this something drew you there you were listening to your higher self you were listening to the guidance to bring you here and that guidance is going to bring you anywhere you need to go it's always there for you it's always supporting you and right now like I've had so many things popping in just in the last couple weeks things lining up just support coming from just unbelievable support from the universe and from people and you know it's it's there and the gratitude is key because when you start really feeling into that gratitude and the encouragement is really feel the gratitude okay because sometimes we use our minds and we think things I'm grateful and that's good it's a good start it's a very good start but when we start getting the emotions involved so if you have a like a gratitude affirmation you can make it so much more powerful by really feeling that gratitude within you taking the time to really you know start with like feeling what does gratitude feel like and it's like a little exercise you can you can be still one night one day or something and lie down and and think of something you're extremely grateful for and really pay attention to what that emotion feels like and that is the frequency of gratitude and you can learn you can train your body to respond to that frequency of gratitude if you practice that so I'm just kind of recording this on an every day every day every day and we're getting every day noises behind us and that's just fine because that's again coming back to perfection like if I waited until I had oh if you listen to the background right now that's the absolutely beautiful so if we waited until conditions were absolutely perfect for everything it would never happen listen to that I don't know if this phone is going to pick it up I'm really hoping that that music comes through because it's look look it up I'll leave a link below to Tchaikovsky's Hymn of the Cherubim because it's out of this world but yeah it's like you know start where you start where you are maybe you're called to start a business or something you know just follow the guidance it'll show you what to do it may show you what to do or it may show you the you know bring you to a person that will help you especially if it's something that's really been frightening you if you're not sure exactly how it'll work sometimes asking just to be connected to the right people the right time in the right ways to assist sometimes that's well again um the safety of this child like innocence because that's that's where I'm thinking of bison buffalo when there's danger they put the children the babies in the middle the young and musk oxen do this too and they protect them and they just stand in a ring all around so I'm feeling like that's what the Cherubim are doing with this garden the garden of even they're protecting they're protecting the inner child because I'm getting a lot of inner child coming forward lately in a lot of ways and how important that is the ability to like children have a natural ability to play maybe a play is so important it's one of the keys to getting back to this beautiful existence that's what art is let's play people get up tight when they you know every time when I tell people an artist the first thing most people say is oh I can't draw like of course you can draw it doesn't have to look perfect every child can draw right show me a two-year-old or well maybe all two-year-olds yeah but yeah four-year-olds right they draw the band and they don't worry about it and there's you know they look up like what look look what I drew look look at this look at this and they're so excited and they'll tell you about it and tell you the stories about what it is and sometimes those are like the angels speaking through them but then they go to school and they get trained that what they're doing isn't good enough and they stop hearing the angels they stop seeing them they stop drawing them or whatever is they're drawing what's happened to most of us old journeys about and that's why like this whole idea of purification purging all that it brings us back it peels away the layers into the inner child and that's you know um just you know letting go of all that stuff allows you in here this almost looks like a seed opening and that's the other thing that they've been asking me to relay is something to do with seeds and rooting so i'm gonna put a root in here because the connection with earth is so important i've been getting a lot of just um messages to ground lately that grounding is very very important for lightworkers right now especially always but right now sending down the root sending down the root to mother earth connecting with mother earth it reconnects us to our pure essence nature purifies all the four elements so the four faces the four elements they each purify in their own way we have the element of error and if you've ever been in a stuffy room and opened the window you know how purifying the element of air can be and then the element of water of course washing element of fire very purifying too we don't always think of the element of earth is purifying but it is earth you know think of um a beasting and putting clay on it and how that just leaches away the toxins so every one of the elements has this purification element to it and connecting with nature you're connecting with all four of those um you know we're going back going back to our roots reconnecting and another part of this is coming to center right and and the stillness because there's so much action around here there's that old saying you can't fire fight fire with fire you can't advance into this and without just being still you've got to be still stillness is the only way you can get through here that's what they're telling me is that when you become still it's like you enter the heart it's a portal to enter the heart without having to bypass all this stuff in the stillness you can hear they call it the still small voice for a reason it's necessary to come to stillness our society does not value stillness very much our ancestors did so you can connect with the ancestors sometimes they can help i mean they still remember how to sit still well i don't know if this is done or not i may go in after it dries and work on it more but it feels like this video is done maybe not maybe i'll just get a little more violet in there maybe violet is asking for violet before i leave and reminding that the violet flame is available and if you're not familiar the violet flame it's very easy you just kind of visualize yourself in violet fire and and what that is is it just transmutes it's a it's like this pure grace kind of thing there's a lot of ways you can use it but um it's grace because we aren't you know spirit knows that we're not perfect right but but that's why we have this we can ask for grace because we are perfect but we're not does that make sense we're perfect in our imperfection in our humanity we're perfect in our humanity and we're given this grace in order to transcend what we're dealing with are you my dog it's been silent for a while and some people will probably have dropped off getting bored with the silence there's something better they could have been doing right now i think really the here is just being still enough to listen and being still enough to hear what we're being called for called to do that it's probably closer than we think in fact it's right you know you're available as as a as a like as humanity itself we've got everything that we need to create a beautiful great beautiful lives for everybody on the planet it wouldn't take a huge amount it would just take you know take some slowing down and start considering you know what is it that we really want and to take our power back as as human beings we can each do that and what they're saying is like we each need to do it as individuals take our power back and part of it is getting off that treadmill of gotta go gotta go gotta go because you're gonna find as you slow down you're gonna get more and more and more attraction so that you will find things happen so easily without having to you know run ragged and when a critical mass of individuals moves into that space it opens up the doors for everybody like the last thing i'm gonna do is i'm gonna put some gold in here because i'm seeing this little child in the middle get some gold in once i gotta go get a tomb here this is designer's gouache it's uh most watercolor is transparent but this is now this may not show up too well on the video but in person it's gonna be he actually go in and put some iridescence in the rest of it as well right thank you for watching if you've held out this long i commend you and if you are interested in working with me at all i've got links below i do give intuitive sessions there a little more i don't usually speak this slowly and it's just like it's you know i had to paint at the same time but definitely i offer healing sessions readings as well as artwork and working on getting my art side up and oracle cards so i have a link to my spirit animal deck below and i do want to send a big big big thank you to everybody who has signed up for sessions and purchased decks and so forth things that i do definitely appreciate that and just wish you a beautiful day we'll catch you again later
