Angels are our guardians and guides.  They are divine spiritual beings of love and light that work with humanity to help us in this lifetime. Guardian angels are unique to each person; we each have our own team.  For some people this may be one angel, for others it may be many; and you can always ask for more if you feel the need.  The Angels respect your free will and won’t directly interfere in your life unless asked, or, if your life is in danger before your time.  When you ask for guidance, your angels will communicate through your intuitive feelings and a variety of other ways.  When you are uncertain about a decision, you can always ask them for a sign to confirm your feelings.  Signs from the angels help us feel a direct connection, enhancing our intuition and giving us the confidence to move forward.

Aside from Guardian Angels, there are also Archangels who help humanity.  The Archangels are a higher elevation of energy then our Guardian Angels (arch means above) and there are hundreds of them; each working with a particular purpose to provide guidance and help for us.  The Archangels also respect our free will and do not interfere in our lives directly unless we ask (or our life is in danger before our time); but they definitely give us nudges for our highest good and in the direction of our purpose.

A common archangel many people call upon for healing is Archangel Raphael, whose name means “God heals”.  This archangel has an emerald green light or aura and is often associated with the Caduceus symbol, commonly seen in medical practices, hospitals and buildings.  Archangel Raphael’s primary purpose is the provide guidance, healing and inspiration for anything related to the health and well-being of our mind, body or spirit.  This powerful Archangel can help you achieve inner peace by leading you to a more optimal state of well-being, bringing our planet closer to peace on Earth, the mission of all angels, one person at a time.

There’s much more to Archangel Raphael’s Divine abilities, here are 5 amazing ways Archangel Raphael can help you (and how to ask):

1.  Physical Healing

Our physical health is necessary for each of us to live happily and align with purpose.  Archangel Raphael not only provides direct healing for any physical ailment, illness or disease; he also provides guidance about how,you can improve your health and can worth through medical professionals/healers to assist in your healthcare.  To call on Archangel Raphael for healing you can use,the following Mantra while visualizing his emerald green light surrounding you:  “Archangel Raphael please help me with healing the following issue (name your health concern).  Surround me with your healing light and bring me guidance about positive changes I can make to improve my health and about the contributing emotional issue(s).  Please help coordinate any healers who can assist me in my healing process.  Thank you, and so it is”.

2. Emotional Healing

Our physical health is completely tied to our emotional health.  Low emotional states can manifest into physical health issues.  When dealing with a physical health concern or issue, awareness of the emotional link can help bring about full healing, restoring wholeness (mind, body and spirit).  Archangel Raphael can bring you this awareness so you can release the contributing emotional issue(s) when illness occurs.  However, dealing with emotional issues before anything physical manifests is best.  You can call on Archangel Raphael daily for awareness of any negative energy you are holding onto related to emotional states past or present.  This can be asked prior to meditation.  Once you become aware, you can call on Archangel Raphael for Energy Healing to release the negative energy so,it does not manifest into physical health problems (see number 3).

3. Energy Healing

Releasing negative energy is vital to our health and well-being.  Holding onto negative energy, consciously or subconsciously, can manifest in health issues and many other problems (financial issues, relationship issues, energy blocks etc…).  Archangel Raphael can help us release negativity with his emerald green healing light.  You can ask for this energy healing any time, even daily.  I recommend prior to bed time each night, or while meditating, for maintaining a state of optimal health.  Simply use the following Mantra while lying down and relaxing prior to bed time or,during meditation:  “Archangel Raphael please fill me with your green healing light and help me release any negative energy, thinking or emotions that do not serve my highest good.  Please bring me guidance about positive changes I can make to improve my energy vibration and maintain an optimal state of wellness.  Thank you, and so it is”.

4. Travel Plans and Safety

Archangel Raphael is a patron for safe and smooth travels.  This can include traveling for leisure, business or personal reasons.  From planning and logistical coordination to scheduling and safety; Archangel Raphael can help with guidance and serendipity on your behalf.  Call on him for vacation ideas, help with financing travel, working with travel professionals, plan coordination, safe travels (car, train, bus or plane), smooth flights, on-time schedules, or anything else needed.  True story:  my family (me, my hubby and 3 kids) were stranded by bad storms in the Orlando airport a few years ago; all flights were delayed for about 10 hours as the storm system passed through.  Most people were struggling to get flights rebooked that evening after the storms ended, so I called on Archangel Raphael to help us and we got the last 5 seats on a direct flight home (to the surprise of everyone around us)!
