Your Guardian Angel is the loving healing light that surrounds you with their protection and love. We are all assigned a specific Guardian that helps us on our life path and purpose. Although your angel can only come into your life when invited, they are always by your side.
From an early age, I have always seen and felt Angels around me. I would see them as orbs of light or I could sense their presence. I have been an Angel Teacher for a number of years and how angels contact you is always personal to you. There is no right or wrong way. No fixed rules to follow. Just allow yourself to be guided to your heart. In this blog I will help give you some guidance on ways to make contact and what it feels like to connect to your angel.
HOW ANGELS CONNECT TO US
Angels connect to us subtle ways that can sometimes be easy to miss. They will often send us signs through our heart centre where we feel a pull or a sense of expansion within our hearts. Some people can also hear a high pitched noise in their ears (this happens briefly as opposed to a health issue and only lasts a second. For myself, I have seen coloured lights or can sense their energies. It is easier to connect to our angels when we first quieten our minds and allow the space for our angels to come in. Meditation is the easiest way to do this or using angel cards as part of a meditation practice.
A MEDITATION TO CONNECT TO YOUR GUARDIAN ANGEL
A simple meditation practice is to simply sit, with your back straight, and take 10 deep breathes in through your nose and out through your mouth. Imagine that with every in-breath your body becomes more and more relaxed. If any thoughts come up just allow them to flow through your mind without any judgment or control. On the last in-breath, call in your Guardian Angel by simply stating:
“I call in my Guardian Angel to me now to help give me guidance and support. Thank you for sharing with me your loving energy and protection.”
Then just spend a few moments connect to your body. Notice any sensations such as lightness in your heart, a sense of expansion or love, changes in temperature such as feeling colder or warmer, any tingling sensations. Just keep bringing your awareness back to your body.
Then ask your Guardian Angel to show themselves to you. Notice any colours of light or even if you actually see a figure, what they look like. You may instead get images coming up, or words, or even a name. Just allow whatever is coming up to come up without any judgment.
If you feel like nothing is coming through please don’t worry. It took me a few attempts as it can feel difficult to quieten your mind so practice a few times. Just keep the intention in your mind of connecting to your angel.
JOURNALLING WITH YOUR ANGEL
Another powerful way I have found is channeling, which basically means being an open and clear light for the angels to connect to you and writing down any visualizations or words. A simple way to start this is to try the meditation above and then have a pen and paper handy. Write down at the top of your page any questions you would like guidance on.
Then clear your mind, take a deep breath, and call in your Guardian Angel to flow through you and give you the answers you are seeking. Write down the first words or images that come to your mind. Allow this process to unfold naturally and try not to control anything. Again it can take a few attempts but this is such a handy way to really connect to your higher self as well as your angels.
THE POWER OF PRAYER
You don’t have to be religious in any way to pray. We so often pray on a daily basis without even realizing it. Conscious prayer is the most powerful way to connect to your angels. Simply have the intention of what it is you want to pray for and then imagining sending this prayer out to the Universe for your angels to help with. In many spiritual practices prayer has been used to help us connect to Source or God.
Angels are believed to be that conduit between us and God. They are just one step down energetically and when we pray it is thought that they send this prayer up to the heavens. Whether this is true or not we may never know, but I know from personal experience the power of prayer has transformed so many areas of my life. By surrendering to a higher power and letting go of control has enabled me to bring more loving acceptance and peace into my life.
YOUR JOURNEY WITH THE ANGELS
Now more than ever it is so important that we always use our discernment when it comes to Spiritual Practices and Teachings. Trust what your heart and intuition are telling you. I have spent a number of years studying different religions and spiritual beliefs that I know in my heart no one is wrong or right. There is no one size fits all. So when it comes to your own Spiritual Path the guidance I give is only from my own personal experience. Trust in your own path and follow what resonates with you.
