The Saintly Portals

Door Helen Hansen

Wat je zal leren

Each saint comes as a guide — a gatekeeper of their own mystery — and for 24 hours, from sunset to sunset, we are invited to sit with their light, to listen to their message through dreams, thoughts, signs and the quiet unfolding of the day. When we are out of tune, we fall into the hands of fate. When we live in alignment, we step into our freedom — the freedom to choose, to create, to awaken.

I enjoyed the course! While I’m not Catholic, I hear the messages from these saints as definitely being for each of us for inspiration and guidance. I also appreciated that the feast days for these particular saints are all in this season. Thank you for this content, and I will be on the lookout for your next offering at the end of December! 🙏🏼
