how to connect with your angels

When Angels Come to Earth

This article is a part of my on-going series on Angels.

To share with you the mystery and magnificence of the presence of Angels in human experience, I find that I must discuss the subtle role that angels play to bring a unique energy into manifestation.

A part of the angelic mission and purpose, when they choose to come to the earthly realm, is to embody an energy that needs to be manifested in humanity.

It is an act of love and service to humanity that these angelic beings take on this mission. The celestial beings that focus on a specific and particular energy are often called Devas since the choice to embody a specific energy is a mysterious part of how the angelic realm (a realm of pure energy) works to create energy and influence matter.

The heavenly realm reflects Divine Will at the source of all creation. The heavenly hosts have an opportunity to serve as the messengers to help with the manifestations of Divine Light and Divine Love that it is the Will of God to provide for humanity.

This choice is one of great service and great sacrifice for an angel whose substance is pure Light and pure Love. To choose to embody a particular energy requires the angel moving from what is unlimited by either time or space to a specific focus. This is, by definition contained and, therefore, limited. It is a sacrifice fueled by Divine Love and empowered by Divine Will. It is the work for which the angels were created, so it is simultaneously their burden and their joy.

Angels are spirits, flames of fire; they are higher than man, they have wider connections.
– Matthew Simpson

This inner working of the angelic kingdom is not something that is explored and expressed very often. The mechanism is the same as what is manifested for an angel to become an individualized guardian angel. That is a powerful and personalized service. This is different in a subtle way because it is more impersonal.

The transition to becoming available to the needs of humankind is a somewhat different service for an angel as their influence is more generalized and I imagine may be less rewarding since the result is more general and diffused.

For the angels, infused with Divine Love and directed only by Divine Will, there is a willingness to serve the Lord of creation to a task trusting in Divine Wisdom. This need of humanity or a human individual becomes the life work and the life purpose of that angelic expression.

As the veils between the planes of the angelic realm are thinning, more and more awareness of angelic presence is coming into human consciousness. Angels are coming into a greater understanding of the human experience, as humans are increasing their knowledge and awareness of the angelic realm.

Make friends with the angels, who though invisible are always with you. Often invoke them, constantly praise them, and make good use of their help and assistance in all your temporal and spiritual affairs.
– Saint Francis de Sales

This is a dynamic transition in the overall Divine plan of evolution. Human consciousness is evolutionary. Angelic consciousness is in-volutionary. What all of this means, especially in this amazing transformation that is being revealed in this time of change is just now beginning to be revealed.

More and more individuals are becoming conscious of angelic beings and their presence and influence on human experience. Angels are being called upon more and more with the asking for help and guidance through the extensive use of angel cards and the invocation of angelic presence in prayers, there is a response of love and compassion.

This response is wider than just a response from your Guardian Angel. The heavenly hosts are hearing and responding to the invitation from the human hearts for greater companionship.

Since the essence of angels is composed of Love, this increased invitation and invocation of humanity for the presence of angels increases the awareness of the blending of Divine Love with the human experience.

This building of an energetic bridge from the angelic kingdom to the human material world has a profound influence. Since your Soul is composed of the same substance as the angels and is known as your solar angel, this calling forth of the presence of angels builds more and more energetic etheric substance along the rainbow bridge. This not only helps and enhances the ability of angels to respond to your call but forges a pathway along what is known as the Antahkarana (the rainbow bridge) for you to have a greater conscious awareness of the wisdom, the Love and the Power of your Soul.

This greater awareness and greater merging of angelic presence open the human consciousness to a vast world that lies beyond the limitations and restrictions of the material world. Learning to listen to the soft, gentle promptings of your Soul opens you to a greater perspective of what is real.

Imagination is a gift of your higher mind and is powerful and dynamic. It fuels your understanding and appreciation of a reality that lies beyond the five senses of matter.

Intuition, empathy, and telepathy all exist in this space beyond the limitations of your five senses. Learning to sense, to hear, to see and to feel these subtle energies are a part of claiming enlightened awareness.

The essence of life is beyond matter. Love, joy, peace are all real powers that have a profound impact upon and influence in your life. Angel’s help these subtle energies manifest in a way that can be more easily experienced by your human mind and sensed emotionally.

At times, great angels choose to come to earth and bring with them specific energies that humanity needs. This is for these presences an act of Love and an act of service, for with their descent to earth and the material world, they become a source of Divine Love and amazing grace as an active force to manifest God’s overall plan on earth.

These great angels are aligned with Divine Will and Divine Love by their very nature. They serve as God’s emissaries. The individual energies that they embody and deliver to humanity can become known to you through revelation in meditation.

Angels offer the energies that they have been charged to bring into human awareness in a subtle way that relies upon those who reach out to experience their gifts of the spirit, like telepathy and imagination. A part of the expanding of your consciousness to listen with your heart to the whisper of their energetic impression, which is what brings about the healing they bring and the help they offer to humankind.

This blending and opening from the angelic realm to human consciousness is a special blessing. Many of the great Devas and Angels who appear to help humanity are emissaries of the Divine Mother, the female part of the heart of God and are responding to the prayers of humanity.

These great presences can be touched in meditation and may provide healing or help in response to humankind’s needs. They are a part of the energetic interaction of heaven and earth, God and man, the world of the visible and the invisible.

In times of exalted meditation, they may reveal to you their name or their purpose and, when that happens, that is an invitation for you to invite and invoke the extraordinary energy they bring into your own life for your benefit and blessing.

Their presence, especially when revealed in meditation can have not only significant healing power but can help bring into manifestation and conscious awareness energies that can help humanity face times of great challenge.

Because these great Angels and Devas are of the substance of divine love, they manifest as spirits who are richly imbued with the essence that they are charged to help bring into manifestation.

When their name and purpose are revealed, you are invited to tap into that energy.

To empower you to receive these angelic presences in meditation I am naming a few who have been shown to me in meditation that you can call upon and connect with:

The Spirit of Perpetual Joy (is a vast and powerful angel)

The Spirit of Peace and Equilibrium

The Goddess of Grace

The Spirit of Compassionate Forgiveness

These great Angels have opened their presence so you can experience the blessings that they have chosen to embody for humanity.

New insights and awareness’s are available for you to enhance your life with joy.

Before you conclude your meditative time, you might wish to express your gratitude for the blessing and healing you have received.

Namaste,

Angels Watching Over Me

Genevieve Gerard

Angels Watching Over Me

“All night, all day, angels watching over me Dear Lord.”

So go the words of an old spiritual.

As I was meditating and pondering the message for this Serenity Sunday post, the words of this song filled me with a sense of joy and a feeling of being both loved and protected.

That there are angels watching over me, night and day was, and is, comforting and reassuring. Therefore, I decided to make this part of my ongoing series of articles about angels.

Angels are a dynamic and powerful Presence in the world. Just because their substance is not of the same essence as matter does not make them any less real. I believe Angels are real. What do you believe? Read on and maybe you will believe.

It is a tradition that since ancient times Angels have served as messengers of Divine Guidance. They reside on the same plane of energy as Devas and your Soul and are a manifestation of Divine Purpose, Divine Love, and Divine Will. They serve as a bridge between humanity and Divinity.

What I love is that Angelic messages can cross the veil to be understood by humankind in special situations. The protection of angels and the quiet guidance and prompting of angels can be felt in the stillness of your intuition or in insights that accompany the observation of life around you.

This tradition has been reaffirmed and enhanced through a series of Divination and daily guidance cards created by Doreen Virtue. Many use these beautiful cards to tune into angelic guidance by using the symbols on these cards.

To connect with your angels and effectively use angel cards you first must open your mind and your heart to the Presence of your own Soul and call upon the Presence of the angels and request their assistance. Any form of using cards to clarify your life, such as angel cards, or any other symbolic cards such as Tarot cards, are a way of connecting with your Higher Self and because of this, is within the control and influence of your Soul. This is important to understand and ponder on.

Make friends with the angels, who, though invisible, are always with you. Often invoke them, constantly praise them, and make good use of their help and assistance in all of your temporal and spiritual affairs.
– Saint Francis de Sales

It is your Soul that has the insight and wisdom to guide you as you shuffle and move the cards around. Your Higher Self knows the meaning of the cards, with all of the significance of the placement of their symbols, and can provide insight and a greater understanding of dynamics and challenges you are facing in your life. I find it a wonderful way to clarify and understand more about your life.

The famous psychiatrist and psychotherapist Carl Jung explained this as it relates to all of the techniques and tools of divination. Jung believed that our journey of transformation, which he called individuation, is at the mystical heart of all religions. It is a journey to meet the Self and at the same time to meet the Divine.

Understanding the guidance potential, in terms of being available from my Soul, has always made sense to me. Jung included in his theory, I Ching, Tarot, Runes and although Angel cards are a newer manifestation of a portal into higher understanding I am sure that the principle is the same.

Divination as a way of trying to explain and understand the forces that are surrounding you in life, are as ancient and diverse as life itself. The method being used, when understood in this context, is less significant than the process of invoking, inviting and considering the guidance and the wisdom of your Higher Self, your Soul.

Somehow, the symbols, most of which are archetypal, make it easier to consider the suggestions. Symbols speak to both your intuitive mind and your logical mind.

It is interesting to observe that the desire for divine guidance goes back to very ancient times and throughout history ranging from as diverse ways as animal entrails, reading tea leaves or coffee grounds to more traditional forms such as the I Ching which includes the time of Confucius (551–479 BC) or the Tarot which is recorded as a method since the 14th century.

It seems the urge to seek guidance and clarification about what is happening in your life or what forces are shaping events, is part of human nature. However, it is significant to both understand and acknowledge that the very genesis of the word implies that the source of the guidance being sought is Divine. Thus, the intention and connection with your Soul, when seeking clarity and guidance, is what makes the insight most effective.

To open your self to the direction, the wisdom and the guidance of your Soul you need only to invite and invoke the Soul. Your Soul is an integral part of you and is available to your conscious mind when you turn your attention to it. You can do this consciously, when shuffling and manipulating the tools of any divination method, while thinking as clearly as you are able about what you wish to understand in your life.

The more clearly your question is framed, and as much as you can calm your mind and control your mind chatter and amorphous fears, the more clear and helpful the guidance will be. That makes your time with the divination tools a form of meditation and an impetus for aligning with and opening to the guidance and wisdom of your Soul. In meditation, the ability to calm your mind and be open to the promptings of your Soul is always desirable.

Let the desire for clarity and guidance be a stimulus for you in honing your skills. Any way you can gain mastery over what many have traditionally called the “monkey mind” and gain mastery over your fears, is of benefit to you. Learning to calm your mind, open your heart and invite the Light can be a portal to the wisdom and guidance of your Higher Self.

Some use angel cards, tarot cards or even the I Ching as a way to be receptive and listen to the promptings of their Soul. What is most important is not the tool or technique you use to connect with and be receptive to the wisdom and guidance of your Soul, but that you make the time and open yourself to that dynamic and transforming connection.

Meditation, prayer, and journal writing are all valuable ways that you can invoke and invite the wisdom and Presence of your Soul.

Although Angel Cards are newer tools than the more ancient techniques, many have found them a way to be open to the presence and urging of Angels in your life. As the words of the old song imply (“All night, all day, angels watching over me Dear Lord.”) angels are always available and when called upon can be a protection and guiding light in your life.

To open to the guidance and wisdom of your Soul when using the tools or techniques of divination I suggest that you consciously affirm that the wisdom and insight you are seeking is from your Soul. Then, consciously invoke and invite your Soul’s presence to guide and direct you.

The Light of the Soul Descends — Soul Light Descending

You might find it helpful to visualize your Soul as a radiant light 3 to 6 feet above your head and imagine that from that point love, wisdom and guidance are stimulating your intuition and insight.

Then be quiet and receptive to the promptings of your Soul. Realize that the language used in this kind of communication may well be symbolic, so interpretation of the symbols is often where the art lies. Listening and opening to the prompting and guidance of your Soul and your angels can be very revealing.

Your Soul has always been, and will always be, an integral part of who and what you are. Your angels, particularly your guardian angel, but also varieties of angelic presences, are aligned with and supportive to you when you invoke and invite the invisible into your awareness.

To see an angel, you must see another’s soul.
To feel an angel, you must touch another’s heart.
To hear an angel you must listen to both.
– Author Unknown

It may be a prompting or a flash of insight or intuition. It could be a clear understanding of events or circumstances that you did not understand before. Trust yourself. Trust your intuition and incorporate and consider the different perspectives you can now see and touch.

Life is much more varied and diverse than just what we experience through the 5 senses. Open your awareness to what you can feel and sense in the subtle energies that surround you. There is all around you mystery and delight that is beyond the knowledge of your physical awareness into the realm of subtle energies. These impact and influence your life and your world without your conscious understanding or acknowledgment.

Open yourself to be the fullness of the amazing miracle of what it means to be a human being. One who has a body, but is more than a body; which experiences emotions, but is so much more diverse than what your feel; who has a mind whose thoughts have the powerful energy to join with creation as a co-creator. By opening to the realm of the Soul and the world of angels, you are able to experience a reality that incorporates so much more.

Expand your mind, open your heart and invite into your awareness the world of light that the darkness obscures. It is real. From this comes a greater expansion of what life can be. It is available for you, to you, when you open your awareness.

Be an angel to someone else whenever you can,
as a way of thanking God
for the help your angel has given you.
– Eileen Elias Freeman

Open your awareness to the Presence of your Soul and the Presence of Angels all around you. Life is richer and more profound than the world experienced only through the 5 senses.

Namaste,

Genevieve
