Communicating with the Angels part 2
In the Old Testament angels play a prominent role as the messengers from God and this is where the leading demon, Satan, is introduced. (It was not until the New Testament that Satan was portrayed as Lucifer) In the O.T. there were only two orders of angels: the Seraphim and Cherubim and they were more than just messengers as they are portrayed as the agents of God in bringing judgment to the world. Paul extended the number of angels in the New Testament by adding seven new orders.
The angels have names and roles that they play. This may not have been their name at the beginning just as our name is not what we had at the beginning. But the role they play, what they created was in existence just as ours was. The angel’s mission with us as part of the team is to create a "blueprint" to assist in creating balance.
Regardless of how we wish to try to communicate with angels, or what role we believe they play in our lives, it's important to keep in mind that the ultimate purpose of them is working with us. There are Angels for just about every function you can think of, and many more! There is no limit to how many Angels you can have in your life and there is no limit to what you may ask for!
You can ask Angels to assist you with any project, problem or issue you may have. You may call upon Angels whenever you wish to and for whatever purpose provided that the purpose is not intended to hurt or injure anyone or the Earth itself. However, you must ask them to ASSIST not do it for you as they will not!
Archangels are able to be in many places at one time. You never have to feel that your "problem" isn't important enough to bother them with. That is what they're there for, to help you grow. There are Angels to fill your home with love, ask them to assist watching over your children, ask them to assist your travels, ask them to assist or sponsor you when you are trying to stop smoking or are trying to lose weight and get healthier.
Ask an Angel to assist in taking care of your computer problem or to assist you in resolving an argument with a friend or relative. There is no limit to what you may ask an Angel to assist with for you. By simply getting used to blessing all that you experience and through asking Angels to be present everywhere on your life, you will begin to embody Angelic qualities in your life. You will be more open to the love and abundance of the Universe. You will begin to experience more joy, health and laughter as you sense the wings of Angels as they fly around every aspect of your life.
Ranks of Angels
The first group is the Divine counselors.
Seraphs – burn with God’s love. They are considered the highest rank of celestial beings as they are said to surround the throne of the Divine and regulate the movement of the heavens. They also serve the “God” within us. They are the angels of love, light and fire.
Cherubs – intellectuals. They are the guardians of the fixed stars, keepers of the records and bestowers of knowledge. They are the guardians of light and the stars. Their light touches all and teaches or encourages enlightenment.
Thrones – stay in court and meditate. They bring down justice and are the companion angels of the planets. The “Earth Angel” is the guardian of the world.
The middle ranks are the Divine governors and keep the universe running smoothly.
Dominions – are divine bureaucrats and serve to integrate the physical and spiritual worlds. They also regulate angelic duties. They rarely contact individuals, but their work is connected to our reality.
Virtues – beam out massive levels of Divine energy. When you work with the virtues a greater infusion of spiritual energy is available for the planet. They work miracles here on earth and are the bestowers of grace and valor.
Powers- are the keepers of collective history, the angels of death and birth. They stop the efforts of the negativities from overthrowing the world
The 3 lower ranks are the Divine messengers and carry our particular tasks.
Princes or Principalities – are the protectors of beliefs and the guardian angels of large groups.
Archangels – are the guardians of people and all physical things. They tend to the larger area of human endeavors.
Guardian Angels – are your own personal angel. They form a bridge between a remote deity and his fallible creations, guiding humanity toward the perfection expressed by the God they represent. All the faith groups teach of “Guardian Angels” looking out for men on an individual basis and trying to protect mankind and all of their Gods’ creations. At least the last three, Judaism, Christianity and Islam teach that Angels are lesser than man in their Gods’ view. All four also believe Angels’ only purpose was serving their God.
Devotion today How should we regard angels today? While some people participate in devotional orders as a way of recognizing angels, most of us are more informal. Regardless of how we wish to try to communicate with angels, or what role we believe they play in our lives, it's important to keep in mind that the ultimate purpose of them is assisting us.
Enlightenment is the state in which you have merged completely with your higher self and your higher self is in constant contact with the angels. Loving humor makes living life here on earth so much easier to take and understand. Most lessons we learn here on earth are lessons to increase our capacity for love. Love isn’t supposed to be heavy. It is supposed to be light. It is the highest angelic ordeal.
We usually run into blocks on our path to enlightenment because we forget to take along our sense of humor. Angels assist us by giving us a “spiritual lightening up”. Give up and rest in the Divine’s love and be one with the humor of the universe. The closer we come to a state of divine humor, the happier we will become.
Solemn rituals and people who practice them take enlightenment far too seriously. How many times have you wanted to laugh hysterically during a “religious” ceremony? Don’t allow the joy of worshiping and loving be taken out of your lives.
Angels are the ones who make us want to laugh at those times. They want us to understand that we are loved unconditionally, and we too should love ourselves unconditionally. Laughter brings us closer to the Divine because it brings us closer to the real us. You know the saying “Laughter is the best medicine”.
Guardian Angels Angels are neither male nor female. They also don’t have “names”. But we as humans need something physical to identify with so the angels accommodate us by giving themselves names. Everyone has at least one Guardian Angel and sometimes two or three. A Guardian Angel is a being that is dedicated to assist you throughout your lifetime. However, the relationship is somewhat deeper than that. Your Guardian Angel was created out of the same essence that makes up your soul.
It could be said to be a higher essence aspect of yourself. Your Guardian Angel isn't essentially separate from you, it has absolute and unequivocal dedication to you and travels with you on every journey that you as a free will entity choose to make. Your Guardian Angel makes an agreement with your soul to assist it in completing any task it has decided to undertake. This is the reason why Angels have been known to make miraculous rescues from accidents.
I feel everyone should know your guardian angel’s name. Close your eyes and place your right hand on your left shoulder. Write down the first name that comes to your mind. It may sound real or unreal, but the key is not to try to decipher it. That is the human side trying to analyze it.
The name you heard could be a name that you always liked or possibly as a child a name that you wanted to change yours to. Children tend to have imaginary friends but are they so imaginary? We as adults let so much other stuff get into our way that we forget. We also don’t want to look foolish in front of other people as they might think you have lost a few marbles.
There are so many stories of children’s’ relationship with angels. Children seeing a person appear when they are lost and yet when the child finds his way back with the aid of this trusting stranger the adults don’t see any person returning themes as the child claims.
We don’t need to learn to communicate with angels. We already know how to do it. We are just made to believe we shouldn’t speak to them. It is just a point of remembering. Your guardian angel is really an extension of yourself. It is like having a best friend with you at all times. It is someone you can laugh or cry with, who will listen to everything and they will understand.
Each of us at one time lived within the Group Consciousness of the Angels. We chose to densify into 3rd dimensional physical bodies to gain individuality. We are not just our toes, hands or even our brain. Our physical bodies are temporary vehicles, which we use in order to gain experiences. Our experiences are who we are. We are our experiences and memories. Our role in life is to experience and take those experiences back to the “primordial bowl”.
We are spiritual energy fields of consciousness. Our individual consciousnesses are comprised of our experiences and it is our consciousness that is eternal. Our experiences at this 3rd dimensional level are recorded in our units of consciousness. The more units of consciousness one gains, the closer one is to their graduation and return to the 4th dimensional level as an individualized being.
At the level of this consciousness, we encounter the Elohim, the creator gods/angels who made the earth and its biological diversity and who maintain a loving and supervisory role over their creations. We are moving back now to work with them as partners or team members. We are not in service to them or they to us per se. We are one.
Next, we will discuss how you will connect to them. As I said earlier the angels will appear or connect with you in the manner in which you will accept them and the way you perceive them.
In what manner will you communicate with them? Why are we discussing intuition in regard to angels?
