Disappointment is a common experience for most of us. But sometimes it gets sticky and contributes to us feeling burdened by it.  In this episode the angels bring forth healing and clearing to help dissipate any old energies of disappointment you may be carrying.  Then, it's time for Part 5 of Edith Nesbitt's children's book, The Amulet, a story of four children and their time-traveling  adventures with a sand fairy called the Psammead.  They find their way home from ancient Babylon only to find out that the Babylonian Queen has wished for the Psammead to transport her to the children's own time in London.
