Walking With Angels

There are an infinite number of angels and guardian spirits in the spirit realms, and all of us have at least one such being whose purpose it is to guide, nurture, and protect us in our daily lives. They are there at our call. So how do we go about contacting them?

Our angels cannot help us unless we ask them. We have to make time to speak to them, and it is best to choose a regular time and method to do this. Some of us may feel more comfortable speaking aloud; others may prefer to journal, or silently meditate. Whatever we choose, our angels will hear us.

As we make this a practice in our lives, we get to know them better, including their name, their appearance, their aura. The better we know a person, the easier it is to speak to them; the same is true of our guardian angels. Don’t be frustrated if you are just beginning this practice. Angels have very highly attuned energies, and it may take a while to adjust your wavelength to theirs.

Approach your angel communication with an open mind. As the saying goes, the ways of the angels are not ours. Since they will not literally “speak” to us, they show themselves in other ways. Have you ever experienced the sensation of a touch on the shoulder, only to find no one was there? It was probably your angel. The same is true of a shape we see in the clouds, or the comfort of a familiar song on the radio, or perhaps a book or magazine we find ourselves drawn to. These are all ways in which our angels communicate with us. We may also hear their words echoed in something a friend says to us. Listen and you will start to hear.

Another important thing to remember when interacting with angels: the more positive we are, the more positive they will also be – what we reap, we also sow! When we ask their help, it should never be a casual or frivolous request, nor should it be seen as a kind of “genie” wish-fulfillment. Ask your angel for what is in your best interest; your angel will know. Show them gratitude and respect. A simple thank you at the end of a prayer or meditation reinforces this.

Of course, the relationship between us and our angels is also a two-way street. We should endeavor to be as much like them as we can. Getting the right amounts of sleep, eating healthy foods and drinking plenty of water make us feel better and helps to decrease the negative energies surrounding us. Because angels are pure beings, they are drawn most to those whose bodies and minds are free of toxins.

Most of all, don’t worry about “getting it right” or stumbling over words. Since these guardian angels are as old as time itself, they aren’t worried about such superficial things. We need only approach them with humility and the desire to receive help, and they will respond. Have patience, too. Answers may not appear instantly. It is all in good time; the angels’ time. They are with us always. We don’t even have to pick up the phone or send a text. Just ask and they’ll hear you!
