ARCHANGEL AZRAEL
Azrael in Hebrew means "God is my aid", and in Arabic "He who helps God". Azrael is the Archangel of transition. He supports souls who are making their way to the other side. Whether they be human or animal, Azrael is the light that guides them through the tunnel to God, When you Google Azrael, you will most likely find something like "the angel of death" and images of a Gothic and frightening hooded figure. I have to say that Azrael is anything but that! He is a tall, handsome angel, and his energy is one of the most heart warming, divinely beautiful energies you'll ever encounter. I always see him with dark skin, a chiselled chin and a purple, golden and red aura. I've seen him wear a cloak, but he does take his hood down when you ask him. He wears the cloak to hide himself, especially from the naked eye. I've always seen him as an angel who stays behind the scenes unless we consciously invite him in.
One of the most Important energies that comes with Azrael is a sense of peace and comfort. He may be known as "the angel of death", but he doesnt bring death, he supports us as we return home.
when his energy comes to us, it doesn't always represent a physical passing, but can also relate to moving from an old life to a new one. Azrael brings the energy of transition as we leave behind all that we no longer need, especially hurt and pain. He will gently guide us through a dramatic change in our life. Azrael is non-invasive: he wont be overpowering. His energy is so gentle and light that we'll be eased through any transition. He will also help us heal if we are in a great deal of pain due to losing a loved one or pet. Azrael is always there to support us at those times. His energy will surround us so that we'll feel closer to our loved ones than ever. He comes with the light of grace; he encourages us to find hope and strength. Whenever Azrael comes through at the beginning of a session or reading, I know that I'm dealing with someone's grief and that they are struggling with it.
Azrael is also the angel who supports counsellors and others who work with those who have emotional troubles. He'll help us to find the right words without appearing interfering or invasive.
Whether you're a counsellor, a medium or someone who's dealing with grief,
HERE'S A MESSAGE TO YOU FROM AZRAEL:
"I create a bridge between heaven and Earth. It is my role to remind those on Earth that there is no separation between heaven and Earth. It is my aim that fear is taken from what you call "death" for it is nothing more than a transition of the soul. We angels message the hearts of those who feel left behind because we want them to remember their divine origins. One day they will go home, too, but it is important to make the most of this earthly life."
ANOTHER MESSAGE THAT CAME THROUGH WITH AZRAEL WAS THIS:
"It's always okay! You may be dealing well with change or grief and then all of a sudden be dragged back into the pain. Allow yourself to breathe, allow yourself to remember - to remember love. Your loved ones are with you now-trust this.. There's no rush to overcome loss. Take your time, allow us to guide you and know that you aren't on your own".
CREATING A SPIRIT ALTAR
A Spirit altar is a sacred space dedicated to all our loved ones who have gone on before us. We can use it to honour them and to create a physical space to connect with them. All you have to do is set aside a space somewhere in your house (facing East is probably best, as it relates to the element of air, i.e. Spirit) and place items there that remind you of your loved ones, along with fresh flowers, crystals, candles - What ever you choose to make this a special place. Many people write notes, prayers and letters to their loved ones in heaven. Allow this space to be your "spiritual postbox".
YOU MIGHT LIKE TO SAY THE FOLLOWING PRAYER:
"As I connect with this prayer, I create a bridge between heaven and Earth. Thank you, Archangel Azrael, for reminding me there's no separation and for bringing the love of (name loved one (s)) to me here.
And so it is!".
REMINDERS FROM HEAVEN
When our loved ones are close, we may receive signs and reminders from them. If we would like the comfort of a sign, all we have to do is say a prayer, then expect a sign to show-up!
HERE ARE SOME SIGNS AND THEIR MEANINGS:
• BUTTERFLY: A great symbol of transformation. When loved ones send you a butterfly, they want you to know they are free of pain, suffering and worry. They are settled in heaven; they have found peace.
• DRAGONFLY: Seeing a dragonfly in an unusual place is a sign that a loved one in heaven is taking you on a journey, on the way, you'll learn so much about yourself that your heart will become complete again.
• MUSIC: Hearing music in your dreams at unusual times or when you've been feeling down, is a sign of celebration. Your loved ones and Angels want you to remember the joy and blessings in life. As you focous on those blessings, the angels will guide you to happiness again.
• ORBS AND APPARITIONS: When you see an orb or an apparition in a photo, angels and the spirit world are reminding you of their presence. Be conscious that angels and spirits are around you and are guiding you.
• RAINBOW: When connecting with Azrael, you may receive the sign of
a rainbow. This can be sent in many forms in the sky, on stationery or even in a song. It represents the promise that your loved ones will never leave side.
• ROBIN REDBREAST: The robin redbreast brings a message of hope. It's an encouraging sign to say that your loved ones are helping you deal with what's going on. It says that you are stronger than you realize and it's okay to talk to them - they can hear you.
