Are you tuned in to your angels? Your celestial pit crew? The bright beings bolstering you through it all? Aware of the arcane infused in the very s ubstance of your world?
Chances are, you think that you're not. An understandable misunderstanding. If you're keeping your eyes peeled for a glimpse of some Christmas tree topping apparition you are probably trying too hard and run the risk of straining your faith-muscle.
The truth is that when you do brush, aura to aura, up against your angels they are more likely to make you think of 'Caravan Club' than 'Caravaggio'. The beige chap on the bus who leaves behind a newspaper opened at the page where you spot the ad for 'open mic night'.
The hirsute barista in starbucks who tells you 'I thought you and thingy were a couple ' - reawakening a dormant dream.
The Arse that prangs you at the lights and makes you miss the interview for the job that your mother had such high hopes for.
All these spiritual change agents are acting as earthly facilitators for your angels - hinting, illuminating, guiding.
The word 'angel' means - messenger of God. This is the part where a lot of folk lose interest, having conjured for themselves a big bag of negative association with archaic religious oppressions from this or previous lives (don't get me started on that ..... 41 incarnations as a concubine were bloody exhausting and I'd rather not talk about it). Put that aside for a mo' and read on.
Be reassured dear one, angels are non-denominational, energetic expressions of the Divine - whatever that means to you. The little promise of magic leaping the synaptic gap. The sublime scaffolding of your sentience. Communicators, translators if you like, helping you feel, see, hear, know your own Creator / Source / Tao / Great Spirit / Life Force / Essence. And the best of it is you can PYO in terms of appearance, aesthetics and flavour. Feathers are optional.
If you have a preference for big floaty white winged harp playing lovlies great! It's good for you. You'll find lots of confirmatory imagery from ebay to the Sistine ceiling - buy a postcard, fill your boots. It will help you focus your intention to connect with your angels and give you a handy visual cue for meditation, manifestation and magic.
For the adventurer wanting to experience an encounter on the earth plane (Real-time-spine-tingling-faith-confirmation-event) try the following invocation or substitute it for something far less silly if you're not feeling playful.
"Come on then angels! Let's be having you! Pull your celestial socks up and meet me half way my big floaty friend. I want to know how I can see/hear/recognise you. Come! Come into my life right now. Come in such a way that I am surprised and delighted. Come in such a way that I am left in no doubt that it's you. Thrill me angels. Turn up unexpectedly and thrill me in the most glorious of ways. Bite me on the buttock if you have to but please let me know you are here. This is _________ (insert name) signing off. I await your delightful delivery with eager anticipation. Thank you."
Then simply wait ... be vigilant ... your angels are extraordinarily creative when it comes to touching your earth-life. Look out for white feathers in unexpected places, pertinent overheard conversations, part-heard songs on the radio, sparkles of light in your peripheral vision, physical sensations of warmth and/or tingling, soul stirring eye contact with strangers etc. You'll know with certainty when it happens - angelic communications feel like Love - real simple.
Don't judge how it happens for you. You can't get it wrong. I recently read for a beautiful soul whose angels showed themselves to me as lyrics and colours - I really liked that.
Love what you get. It's all good.
