44


Today is my birthday. I started this blog on my birthday, seven years ago. So every year I write a birthday post. 

I'm 44.

I've been seeing the number 44 around me all over the place lately. It's always something:44 when I look at the clock. My bill is $x.44 anywhere I'm shopping lately. The license plate of the car ahead of me is like a running stream of 4s. The email I click on was written 44 minutes ago, and has 44 words in it. It's grabbed my attention over and over again.

Here's the meaning of 44, from a lovely website called Angel Numbers. This is a quote from Joanne Walmsley, from whose website this is shared:

ANGEL NUMBER 44


Number 44 carries the doubled vibrations of the number 4, making its energies and influences magnified.  Number 4 resonates with the attributes of support and stability, establishing solid foundations for the self and others, willpower and effort, ability and worthiness, hard work and achieving success, wholeness and inner-wisdom. Number 4 is associated with our passions and drive.

Angel Number 44 asks that you pay attention to your intuition and inner-wisdom as your connection with your angels and the angelic realm is very strong at this time.  You are encouraged to continue on your current path as your drive and determination will lead to success and fulfillment.

When the Angel Number 44 appears repeatedly, it is a message that you are being surrounded by helpful, loving angels who wish to bring you peace of mind and joy of heart.  The repeating Angel Number 44 indicates that you are being given support and encouragement along your path, and when faced with an obstacle, rest assured that your angels are most willing to assist. Be assured that solutions to any issues or problems will soon be revealed.

Angel Number 44 is a message that the angels and Archangels are with you, encouraging and guiding you.  They are offering you inner-strength and support to enable you to get the work done that you need to in order to attain and achieve your goals and aspirations.  They know and understand that you have been toiling diligently towards your goals, and encourage you to continue on your current path to achieve the success and results you desire.  Work with the angels to ensure success in all of your endeavours.

Angel Number 44 is a message that you have nothing to fear in regards to your life, work and Divine life purpose and soul mission.  The angels surround and support you, encouraging you to keep up the good work you have been doing. The angels and Archangels are always available for help and guidance  -  all you need to do is ask.

So, this is my year of 44. I like the idea of having a little extra support this year. One reason is that we moved to Maryland a couple months ago, after living in Ohio for...oh, all of our lives. So here, I'm starting over in terms of friends, contacts, business, and finding my way around. 

I do love the area, am meeting new people, and can now successfully navigate to a few places without my GPS. Progress!

Another reason I could use some support is that my new website launched a month ago, and I'm trying to make sure that people know about it. I'm learning marketing, OpenCart, and some coding on the fly - "fly-learning" always seems to be the way I operate. I have big ideas and I'm putting them into play at hyperspeed, trying not to trip over my own feet in the process. Angels, please help me not break anything as I go along!

I have a house in Cleveland (University Heights for anyone who is looking - here's the listing!) that I'd REALLY like to sell. This is a very good year for some extra angelic help!

But I also recognize how much support I'm already getting. Amazing, fast and surprising things have happened since we moved here. I've made friends with people who are just perfect in my life. I have teaching opportunities starting, and more manifesting. I have new ideas which are becoming reality. I have a sense of purpose and confidence that I'm moving in the right direction, despite the pressure to keep the momentum going. 

So, this year in particular, I'm going to make a practice daily of reaching out to my angel helpers to support me in doing all I'm meant to do to live my purpose. Whether little things, or big things, I know that I'm being helped and guided. 

And I'm very grateful to be in this place and time, with my amazing kids and supportive husband, and with the knowledge that my angels are with me.
