Angels

This page will be devoted to angels. God's helpers and messengers. Invite them into your life and see the wonder. I run angel workshops. People ask me how they might invite angels into their lives. Just ask and act accordingly. In everything you do ask for help. It is spiritual law. Ask and you shall be given, seek and you will find.

I hope you enjoy some of the stories, information and messages on this page. If you would like to send me some of your own experiences I would be happy to feature them here.

Toni

Angels are recognised in many religions and belief systems, they are universal. No one belief can claim them, they are there for us all.

Simply find an area of the house where you would like to make contact. Perhaps light a candle or make a little angel altar and use this place daily to make your communication.

Altars are easy to make. A table or shelf, cleared and cleaned is a fine start. Then perhaps a candle holder, picture of an angel or angel figure for focus.

Using your altar you might light your candle and close your eyes. Invite your angel close and wait. Open your senses and let your mind connect.

Imagine your angel, how the angel might look, what the angel might be helping you with at present.

Once you have made your initial connection ask the angel to give you a name by which they wish to be called and wait for the name that comes to you.

Thank the angel.

Throughout your day you may refer to your angel with any help you need. Angels are non judgemental and all love and the highest form of help.

Dominions

Powers

THE THIRD SPHERE
angels who function as heavenly messengers:

Principalities
Archangels
Angels

ANGELS

The last order. They are the ones who are closest to humanity, the ones most concerned with human affairs. Within the category of angels, there are many different kinds, with different functions. The ones that you are most familiar with and the ones this is primarily about, are the guardian angels.

ARCHANGELS

Beyond the angels are the beings you are used to calling the archangels. But we suggest that you
call them over lighting angels, since they tend the larger arenas of human endeavour. These beings
are a different family from the angels. There are many different kinds of over lighting angels in this
larger family. The four you are most familiar with are Gabriel, Michael, Raphael, and Uriel.

PRINCIPALITIES
Beyond the archangels are the principalities. They are the guardian angels of all large groups, cities and nations. There are many of these beings involved with our planet.

POWERS

The first order in the second sphere are those beings who have been known as powers. They are the bearers of the conscience of all of humanity, the keepers of your collective history. The angels of birth and death are in this category. They are able to draw down and hold the energy of the divine plan. In this way, the powers can send all of you a vision of a world spiritual network.

VIRTUES

Beyond the powers are another group of beings, the virtues. They are of particular importance to us
now because they are able to beam out massive levels of divine energy. As more of you learn
to work with the virtues, there will be a greater infusion of spiritual energy available.

DOMINIONS

The dominions are the heavenly beings who govern the activities of all the angelic groups lower than they are. They also serve to integrate the spiritual worlds. Although they take their orders from God, and rarely contact individuals, their work is still connected to our reality.

THRONES

The first order in the third sphere is the thrones. They are the companion angels of the planets.

CHERUBIM

Beyond the thrones are the cherubim. They are the guardians of light, and of the stars. Remote from
our reality, still their light touches our lives, the divine light that they filter down from Heaven.

SERAPHIM

The highest order of the highest hierarchy are the seraphim, the celestial beings said to surround the
throne of God, singing the music of the spheres, and regulating the movement of the heavens as it emanates from God.

Seraphim, who appear to be closest to the Creator, also serve the God in us.

The belief in angelic beings is of course ancient, and spans many cultures.

Angels are believed to be messengers of God, aiding and guiding humans through life.

Michael the merciful

His name means 'who is of god' the angel of repentance, forgiveness and protection. Michael transmutes all that is negative. He is the angel to call when in need of extra protection or when in difficulty. When we go into areas and our senses tell us to be fearful then call Michael and he will move in and around you with his sword transmuting negativity with his light.

Gabriel

His name means 'God is my Strength' He rules the spirit of men. He is the divine alchemist and angel of magic Commanding astral and heavenly worlds. He is also associated with the moon and nature. Call upon Gabriel for magic, alchemy, transformation and feminine issues.

Raphael

Whose name means 'God has healed' Raphael is the angel of healing and patron of travellers. If you are ever unsure of which angel to call Raphael is also the divine messenger and takes all your requests to the right source. Raphael is also an animal helper.

His name means 'God Has Healed.' Not only does he appear to be the high archangel charged with healing the Earth, but according to the Zohar, 'the Earth furnishes an abode for man, whom Raphael also heals of his maladies.'

Indeed, Raphael's career seems to be peppered with medical missions. Raphael gave Noah a much-prized 'medical book' after the flood.

There's a legend that when Solomon prayed to God for aid in building the great temple in Jerusalem, Raphael personally delivered the gift of a magic ring with the power to subdue all demons. It was with this 'slave labour' that the Hebrew king completed the construction.

Raziel

Raziel, which means 'Secret of God,' is believed to be an 'angel of the secret regions and Chief of the Supreme Mysteries.' There is a legend that Raziel is the author of a great book, wherein all celestial and Earthly knowledge is set down.' When the angel gave his tome to Adam, some envious angels stole it away and threw it in the ocean. After it had been recovered by the primordial angel/demon of the deep, Rehab, the book passed first to Enoch, who apparently claimed it as his own, then to Noah, who learned how to make his ark from it. Solomon, too, was thought to have possessed the book, which allowed him his unusual knowledge of magic and control over the demons.

The Zohar, the major work of Jewish mysticism, claims that set in the middle of Raziel's book there is secret writing 'explaining the fifteen hundred keys [to the mystery of the world], which were not revealed even to the angels.'

Uriel

Whose name means 'Fire of God' He is all wisdom. He looks after tolerance and development. He teaches us truth, individuality, wholeness and unity. In ventures where there is a need for clarity and wisdom invoke Uriel.

Anael

The angel of Joy, peace and beauty. The bringer of happiness, fairness and justice. If you feel you are not treated well or fairly call Anael. He also works favourably with crystal energy.

Ariel

Ariel means 'Lion of God.' However, some confusion exists as to exactly whose side Ariel is on. He's ranked as one of the seven princes who rule the waters and is also known as Earth's Great Lord. To the poet John Milton, however, Ariel is a rebel angel who is overcome by the seraph Abdiel on the first day of the great war in Heaven.

Jewish mystics used Ariel as a poetic name for Jerusalem. In Gnostic lore, that first-and second-century melting pot of revelation, Ariel is the angel who controls the demons. Ariel has also been associated with the order of angels called the thrones and is known to have assisted the archangel Raphael in the curing of disease.

Metatron

Highest of all the angels. The prophet close to God. He is the highest angel in the Kabbalistic 'tree of life'.

Metatron the bright light surrounded by Seraphim. The regulators of movement of the heavens. Seraphim have purifying and enlightening powers. Seen with six wings they sing Gods praises. These angels best depict the love of the Creative Source.

Angel chat

I chat to my angel regularly. Angels appear in all different ways. Some angels may choose to appear in the way you can best accept them.

My birth Angel Samael appears to me but, without wings.

I thought I might ask some questions of you I said. Shouldn't you look more angelic. That depends on how you view it he replies.

Samael is astonishingly good looking with the most fantastic eyes which, are intensely blue. His hair is sandy and somewhat dishevelled but in a sort or organised way. The first time I saw him he had a pair of washed out jeans on and sat there, just staring. I tried to draw a picture of him but found it impossible to capture the true awesome beauty of his face.

A quite serious face.

Anyway, this day I was sat in the hot tub meditating. It was a frosty cold morning and the steam from the hot tub made the garden difficult to see. I was aware of him sat on the side looking at me. He looked at me and smiled.

"I wanted to ask some questions about God" I said. He nodded. "Can you tell me about God?"

Samael called god the magnificence and I said "can you explain." He responded. "Lets just call the source the magnificence otherwise we will be here all day. It is not within your understanding. You have nothing to compare this with."

I said "can you tell me about fallen angels? can you tell me why." As I asked he knew I wanted information on one such angel I had been thinking of.

Samael said "You mean the one that was a favourite of the magnificence and bestowed with many powers and gifts." "Yep that's the one" I said.

"There is freedom always. If something is so magnificent it could not be aspired to easily. Then one might resent it and decide to move away, using power in a different way."

I said "why couldn't the magnificence control that and make everything love."

Samael continues.

"It is similar to when you have a person who is bestowed with greatness, some will resent them for it or possibly destroy them. That resentment can become hatred and that is a powerful opposite and there has to be opposites."

"Why cant the magnificence change all of that and make everyone good?"

"There has to be freedom of will" he says. "There must be a realisation of the power of love and ascension. The source does not wish to control independence and freedom but, rather for all to come to a point of oneness through enlightenment. At that point we are all magnificent."

Then I ask him some more personal questions about my life and role and job. He smiles and says "You are in the perfect place to do what your soul has charted.

Every incarnation will give you the opportunity to grow."

Lucifer

Was one of the seven great archangels of our solar system, serving as the guardian of the planet Venus.

God asked for a volunteer from among His top angels who might be willing to go down to Earth and help strengthen humanity's spiritual resolve by offering constant temptation. Lucifer volunteered. Despite his loving intentions, slowly, over the ages, Lucifer has become identified in our mind as the devil, instead of an aspect of God dedicated to our growth by helping us strengthen our spiritual muscles.

One of the heavenly tasks of Lucifer, whose very name means 'light giver' or 'light bearer,' is to teach us about the necessary dark side of life.

Lucifer is the shadow that reveals the light by contrast. In many ways we can't see the true light until we first experience the darkness.
We tend not to value something until we lose it and then regain it through our own efforts. The parable of the prodigal son touches on this quirk of human nature.

This interdependence of light and dark, of joy and sorrow, of good and bad, and all the other opposites in our dual system of reality, yields to an understanding that, within the larger context, Christ and Lucifer, while not exactly complementary to each other, are at least on the same side, integral parts of the same whole.

Parts of these reports are quoted from the book,
"Ask Your Angels", by Alma Daniel, Timothy Wyllie,
and Andrew Ramer. /Ballantine Publishers.

I shall add more angels as we go...

enjoy!!! .
