Angels are messengers of light and love. When we connect with our
angelic messengers, we are connecting with the Divine. I know that
Angels exist in my life and they are an important part of my reality.
My connection with Angels began while attending St. Joseph's Catholic
School in Muskegon. Sister Maria Goretti, my beloved second grade
teacher, may have suggested that we save part of our seat for our
Guardian Angel. It brings a smile to my face as I recollect my memory
of doing this. Over the years I believe that I lost my inner connection
with that loving energy and guidance, but that relationship has
magnified over the last twenty years. I believe it is this loving
connection that assisted me in my own spiritual growth.
It is difficult to prove to someone the existence of Angels, since
most of us can't see or touch them. Individuals connect with Angels
differently. Some of my clients who are able to "see" have strong
evidence of their presence. I was blessed to work with a teenager who
had a problem with alcohol. With his permission, I called in his
Guardian Angel to support us in the healing session. Neither of us
realized his gift of seeing, yet he saw and felt the golden wings of
this huge Angel envelop him so intensely that he could not even move.
Not all of us can see our Angelic helpers; some of us hear, some are
feelers, some smell an essence, while others have a knowing. Some of us
have a strong sense of Angelic presence because we note the vibrational
shift around us. This is the Angel's energy signature. Often I will ask
my angels to intensify the energy so that I can feel it more strongly.
That probably brings a chuckle from them.
For many years I led an Angel Enlightenment group because I wanted
my friends to share this Angelic love and power in their lives. Each
week we gathered to trade "angel stories," gifted by the wonderful, fun
synchronicities and good fortunes that illumined our lives. Our
experiences caused us to laugh, cry, and be awed as our Angelic helpers
guided each of us on our journey. There were unexplainable feelings of
peace, joy and love. Group energy supports, strengthens and expands us.
I encourage any groups of like-minded people to join together. If you
have been giving this some consideration, ask that others be drawn to
you. Ask, and they will come.
We all have Angelic helpers who assist us as we proceed on this
physical journey. They are the little whispers we hear to encourage and
support us. They are the inspirations and understandings we receive as
we move through our day. I see the Angels as part of my inner wisdom.
This guidance is significant to me as I make my choices. When I calmly
move into the area of my heart and ask for guidance, I discover a
response coming from love rather than fear. When I tune in to that
energetic presence, I know that I am not alone. I feel safe knowing
that all is in Divine Order. This loving presence assists me in my
God-connection.
I believe that there are angels for any occasion. Angels have their
areas of expertise and interest too. Over the years I have called on
Angels for assistance with computers, shopping, travel, writing,
design, relationships, healing, wisdom, play, guidance, creativity and
more. A friend of mine shared that an Angel called Ruby Tuesday can
always be called on to find lost objects. This Angel has never failed
me- try it! Angels are playful. Perhaps because I am a Capricorn and
take my responsibilities so seriously, the Angels constantly lighten me
up! Sometimes I just giggle with delight because I am so aware of their
undertakings in my life. I know that the more we recognize them and
feel gratitude, the more we can experience their presence. Because of
our free wills, we must purposely invite Angels into our lives.
If you have never consciously connected with your Angel, I invite
you to do that now. You may want to put on some calming music to soothe
your body, mind and spirit. Focus your intention.
An exercise to get in touch with your Angel:
Get yourself in a comfortable position. Begin taking in long, slow,
deep breaths. Breathe in peace; breathe out tension. Imagine a
beautiful white light coming in through the crown of your head. Allow
this light to fill every cell. Feel it or just imagine it. It is so.
Move into the area around your heart. Focus your attention there
until a sense of calm surrounds you. You might imagine opening a door
to your heart. Fill it with a beautiful pink light. You may feel a
shift.
Now invite your Guardian Angel to enter this space in your heart.
See, feel or just imagine what your Angel looks like. Ask to feel its
energetic signature more clearly. See, feel or imagine its gentle,
loving presence surrounding you.
Ask your Angel for a message regarding a particular situation.
Your Angel will probably confirm for you what you already know in your
heart.
Thank your Angel for its guidance, love and support
(Exercise taken from Katherine's book, Invitation to Greatness - a workbook for personal growth.)
Angels are God's messengers and help to co-create miracles in our
lives. We all experience Angels in our own way. It's best not to expect
sensational and intense encounters. Their presence is often subtle.
Know they never cause fear or criticize us; they lovingly support and
gently guide us through our intuition. Angels help us to hold the
blueprint we created for this lifetime. Angels are Beings of Light,
assisting us on our path through invitation. Save a seat for your Angel
and fly lightly!
