‘He shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.’
PSALM 9:11
Are angels around children when they are born, (those with difficult births?)
Certainly. Our angels are always around us during times of difficulty offering healing and support.
Do you think there is any truth to the idea that ancients mistook visitors from other planets as angels?
This is something we just don’t know but cave paintings include images which look a little like a cross between angels and our present-day astronauts – so you never know!
Are angels just energy?
Angels are made of light and love. Their bodies do not exist as solid flesh in our dimension. They have no need of clothes – but appear draped in cloth sometimes (for our own modesty). They do not speak with words as we would speak but transmit thought and feelings as a kind of telepathy.
‘Angels are intelligent reflections of light, that original light which has no beginning. They can illuminate. They do not need tongues or ears, for they can communicate without speech, in thought.’
JOHN OF DAMASCUS
Angel Almanac
The archangels each have their own specialities, talents and roles, although not everyone agrees on what these might be! Some of these roles are traditional and some are more modern interpretations of the archangels’ own skill areas. Each of these angels has their own area of expertise and many people wish to work with the right angel for the right job! You probably wouldn’t call a plumber to lay your carpets or expect a beautician to be the best person to fix your car, so this makes a lot of sense.
Some of the archangels’ roles are more obvious. For example, Raphael is the patron of doctors and therapists (one of the translations of his name is ‘Divine Healer’). Gabriel is well known as a messenger angel, so naturally Gabriel is the patron of messengers and postal workers. This stems back from 1951 when Pope Pius XII declared Gabriel to be the angel over all areas of telecommunications!
ANGELS OF ASSISTANCE
Do be assured though that the plumber might actually know a carpet-fitter, even if he can’t do the job personally. So if in doubt, ask. Just call on ‘the best angel for the job’. Imagine your own spirit guides like a directories service – the right angel will be found, even if you don’t know the number. You could call on the angels like this:
’…beloved guides, I ask for your assistance in finding an angel expert in finding lost keys/unblocking my drains/to help me with my schoolwork etc…’
Archangel Michael is well known as an angel who can help with mechanical things. Teresa asked him for help directly, with the back up of other angels, and emailed me to tell me what happened:
‘Recently I found myself in dire straits and needed to sell my car. I had been let down by a few buyers (and it had been on the market for some months). I needed the money to deposit in the bank this very same day so that I could pay my mortgage later that week. There was another problem – the car tax had expired and so I could not drive the car anywhere. I needed not only someone to buy the car, but to also come and pick it up with a truck.
I thought this impossible and so I decided to pray to my Angels for a miracle. I would like to add that up until this day I had been waking up each night at 2:22 a.m. and felt this was somehow relevant, a message from the Angels. I prayed very hard to Archangel Michael and made a shrine dedicated to the Angels, and placed the cards of Archangel Michael, Archangel Uriel and Archangel Gabriel on the shrine along with a fresh purple flower from my garden. I also placed two purple candles, which I lit in honour of the Angels.
Approximately 22 minutes later my phone rang and I dashed to pick up the call only to find a garage some 65 miles away that had seen my car for sale and wanted to purchase it, but alas they could not pick it up so my hopes were dashed. As soon as I put the phone down it rang instantly and I picked it right up, to discover it was another local garage offering to buy my car that very day – and said they could pick my car up and also write me a cheque to deposit in my bank that day.
I was shocked needless to say, but also in awe of my Angels, they really did save me that day!’
