Creating your Angel Environment and Altar

An Angel Altar and Angel Environment really sets the mood, and atmosphere for your special 

Angelic Communication.This became so apparent to me when I walked into the New Age store

close to my house.  The owners had an angel altar playing beautiful angel music.  I hadn't paid

much attention to it, I was just trying to look at the items close by when I felt an overwhelming

energy. I felt a loving vibration, with strong energy. I felt the buzzing, calming energy. I was 

overcome with the angels love, peace, and filled with tranquility. I didn't want to leave the store, 

I wanted to stay by the altar.  I was in heaven and I wanted to re-create it.

I went home and cleaned an area in my bedroom to create an Angel Altar which includes:

• angel crystals
• candles and incense
• flowers
• angel essence
• angel c.d.
• angel statues
• angel cards.

Creating your angel altar creates an angelic atmosphere. You'll be creating a high frequency
that will resonate there. You'll basically be charging your angel area.  This will then create an
automatic pilot for you, instantaneously putting you in the right mindset and a higher frequency
easily.

 

What you need.                                                                                                                    

First, chose a location close to where you'll be meditating and or working with your angels.
It's important that only items belonging to your Angel Altar are there. Try and refrain from
resting objects like: mail, car keys, cups etc., on your altar. Remember, this is a very special
 place with very special meaning.

Include all four elements to your altar:  Earth, Wind, Fire and Water

Earth                                                                                                                                      

For earth you include earthy items like:

• rock crystals - quartz, angelite, celestite, amethyst, citrine, etc.
• fresh plants or flowers

               Angelite                           Celestite or Celestine                      Clear Quartz

When selecting your crystals or any object, especially if previously owned, always pay
attention to the feelings and sensations you are receiving.

When choosing your crystal, take several slow, deep breaths. Feel the crystals vibration.
Does the crystal speak to you? If you like the vibration, then bring it home to your altar.
Don't forget to clear it, program it and charge it.
**I do have a past blog on clearing, programming and charging your crystals.****

Your  Angel  Altar  is  now  complete                                                                                    
There you go, your Altar is now complete. What and how much you include on it is
strictly up to you. What is important is that you include items that are dear to you and
reminders of your angels so that the energy begins to resonate there and quickly connect
you to your angels.  This will be your sacred place.

The Great Protector, Archangel Michael

                        
 
                                                                                                                                         

I'm so excited to write about Archangel Michael. He is one of my favorite Archangels,

and whom I feel very close to.

Fear strikes us all at one time or another. We fear harm coming to those we love,

losing our security, our jobs. The military families fear for their soldiers.

The latter was true for me, when my husband got orders for Iraq in 2004.  I always
prayed for our soldiers. Now, it was my husband whom I was paying for.

I knew I had to have faith in archangel Michael. Archangel Michael is the protecting 
angel, whose name means, "One who is like God."  Archangel means, "Chief of the Angels." 
He is said to be the first angel created by God. Some religions believe he is the pre-incarnate 
of Christ. Michael ranks the highest of all the angels.  

Michael is the leader of God's Army. He is the great prince angel who fought the great 
battle in heaven, and threw the dragon, Satan, and his dark angels out of it.

He is the angel to call for protection.  He has emerald green, or green topaz wings with

saffron hair. Each strand has a million faces that speak a million languages.  He is often 

depicted fully armed with a helmet and carrying a sword and shield.  The shield symbolizes 

his strength, courage, truth and integrity.  In some depictions he presses his foot against 

the dragon, and sometimes pierces him with a lance.  

                                                                                                                                          


St. Michael                                 St. George

Archangel Michael, also known as St. Michael, and St. George are the patron saints of
chivalry and are considered the patron saints for: police officers,  military, and mariners.
For this reason, before my husband deployed to Iraq, I called on Michael and his Angels 
to protect his  unit. I asked him to encase them and their tanks, in a protective bubble.

That night I dreamed we were standing in a field, looking at the sky.  I couldn't see

the blue of the sky because there were millions of cherubs with trumpets flying at light 

speed.  They seemed to be rushing for a vital mission.  When I woke, I knew my husband 

and his soldiers would be safe.  I felt so privileged to have seen God's angels busy at work.  

Legend tells us, Cherubim were created from the tears Michael shed over the sins of the faithful.

                                                                                                                                               

You don't need to be perfect to ask for Michaels help. All you need is to have faith in 

him. Michael will be by your side before you're even done calling his name. Don't feel 

you take him away from people who need him. Because all angels are energy, Michael

can be in millions of  places at one time.

Ask Michael to cocoon you and your loved ones when you need protection. He and his

band of angels will create a protective bubble, infused with the holy light. He will protect

you, like he did Daniel from the lion's den.

Since Michael is the angel of courage, you can ask him to give you courage and strength, 

or  ask for the ones you love. Michael was one of the angels who appeared to Joan of Arc. 

He directed her to go to the aid of France and he became her war advisor.

Ask him to remove negative people from your life.  If you feel a place has negative energy,

ask Michael to sever the negativity with his sword. I did that one time and the room got 

brighter, like a cloud removing itself from the sun's path.

Michael is also the Angel of death. He carries the souls of the deceased to heaven.  At 

the time of death  Michael descends and gives each soul a chance to redeem itself before 

crossing. It was Michael who informed Mary of her upcoming death. You can ask him to

help those who are about to cross over.

St. Michael                St. Raphael

Michael is heaven's physician and his duty  is to take care of the sick.  Michael was the 

angel who caused a healing spring to spout near Colossae.  All the sick who invoked the

Holy Trinity and bathed in the water were cured.  For a powerful prayer for the sick ask 

the two angels of healing, Michael and Raphael for help.

     
                                                                                                                                              

You can pray, meditate or write Archangel Michael your requests.  When you write Michael
your request, fold and place your letter in a non-flammable bowl and light it on fire.  It is
believed that the prayer rises as smoke to heaven, and reaches him.  When you finish with 
your prayer, always thank him.  Remember, you don't need to be a saint or perfect to call on
Michael.  All you need is faith in him.

                                                                                                                                                 

Below is the Catholic prayer to St. Michael.

Prayer to St. Michael

Saint Michael the Archangel,
defend us in battle;
Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil.

May God rebuke him, we humbly pray:
and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly host,
by the power of God,
thrust into hell Satan and all the evil spirits
who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls.
                                               Amen.
