How to Tune into Angelic Protection
Due to recent events occurring in the world, there appears to be a great deal of fear and anxiety related to safety concerns these days. So I want to share with you some ways that you can ease those feelings by tuning into the peaceful angelic protection that is always available to you.
Our guardian angels are always with us, but it is also extremely helpful to ask for their assistance when we desire it. Our angels always respect our free will, above and beyond all else, and will not interfere with the choices we make. So communicating when we want their help signals to them that our request is a conscious choice.
You don’t have to be able to see or hear your angels to make this request. They are always able to see and hear you just fine, regardless. All you have to do is be focused and clear that you would like to receive angelic protection in whatever situation you are concerned about.
You can ask the angels for protection either in your mind or out loud. Either way is fine. The important thing is that you view this as a co-creative act, where you co-create that protective energy with them. This primarily involves your acceptance and visualization of their help.
If you are unconscious, haphazard, or skeptical about their ability to aid you, you will find it difficult to connect with their angelic energy. Thus it will be more difficult for them to aid you effectively. Angels are not some “magic button” that you push like a vending machine whenever you want something. They are real, living beings who require your co-creative energy and intention, if you want to experience the best results.
Here are some ways that you can engage with angelic energy to feel more secure and protected.
A Protective Shield of Light
This is a simple and very powerful method for feeling a great sense of protection in all kinds of situations. Here are the steps to follow:
- Stop what you’re doing and focus on the situation you are concerned about.
- Then call upon your angels and ask them to surround you with a protective shield of white light and energy so that you stay perfectly safe, no matter what. Here is a sample of how you might make this request: “Dear angels, please surround me with white light, and protect me in this situation. (Name the place or situation).” Of course, you can do this in your own words.
- To make this even stronger, ask the angels to accompany you and ensure that you are safe.
- Now visualize yourself surrounded by white angelic light, and envision yourself surrounded by angels. This will help you to energetically connect with the reality of the angels’ assistance.
- Depending on your level of concern, you can continue to visualize this as you go forward, or let it go and trust the angels to safely guide you. Either way, it is important that your consciousness be engaged with their assistance.
There are so many situations in which you can engage this method with your angels. Here are a few examples:
Travel
- If you are driving, you can ask the angels to surround your car with light and protection.
- You can also do this with air travel. Ask the angels to guide you in making your reservations. Then when you board your plane, you can ask them to surround the aircraft with protective white light and energy. You can even ask the angels to surround your plane, and accompany it with protective energy on its journey. Remember that angels come in all sizes. It is no big deal for large, powerful angels to accompany a large aircraft!
- In the past, when I used to travel a lot, I would use this method with my luggage. I would get very focused on each piece of luggage, surrounding it with light energy as I was checking it in at the airport. I would ask the fairies to go with my luggage and ensure its safe arrival. (Fairies are ideal for this!) I never had any luggage get lost or delayed when I did this. However, if I forgot, then sometimes there were issues.
Everyday Situations
There are times when we can use our intuition and decide whether or not we should go somewhere. But there are other times when we may not have a choice, such as when going to work or to school. In those cases, if you are feeling uncomfortable or anxious, you can use this same method. The angels are very happy to go with you and surround you with protective light if you ask.
Whenever you have a choice about where to go or what to do, use your intuition. Then once you have made your decision, if you feel anxiety or uncertainty, you can always apply this method for additional angelic protection to help ease your mind.
Archangel Michael
Archangel Michael is the most powerful of all the angels for shielding and protection. If you find yourself in an unexpected or emergency situation, he is a wonderful angel to call upon for immediate assistance and calming.
Archangel Michael’s colors are gold and electric blue. He will often use a purple and gold light for shielding and protective purposes.
This angel is so powerful, that he could literally hold the Earth in the palm of his hand. He is compassionate and loving, and exudes tremendous strength and certainty in all situations.
Ask him to shield and protect you with his energy if you are ever in an uncomfortable situation, in which you don’t feel safe.
Check out my book A Guide for Lightworkers by Archangel Michael.
Angel Protection for Children
The protective shield of angel light is a wonderful method that you can teach your children, if they are experiencing anxiety about situations that they must engage in, such as at school.
My daughter, who was 7 years old at the time, met one of her angels during the sniper attacks in the Washington DC area after 9/11. The attacks were happening all around where we lived. She was feeling pretty terrified about all that was going on, and was having a hard time processing her childlike interpretation of things.
One night, when she was in bed and feeling afraid that the snipers might get her, one of her guardian angels appeared to her. Standing next to her bed, this beautiful angel dressed in green, with golden wings, looked at her with tremendous love in her eyes, and my daughter was instantly filled with total peace. She was able to describe the appearance of this angel in great detail. She still maintains a relationship with this angel, whom she calls “Annie”.
Your children may or may not see their own guardian angels, but their angels are always there for them. You can teach them to ask their angels to protect them and surround them with light, as was described above, whenever they are feeling anxious or afraid.
You, yourself, can also ask the angels to surround your young children with protective white light, and to accompany them throughout the day.
You are an important part of the equation
It is important to know, that when it comes to angelic protection, your consciousness is an important part of the equation.
The angels can best help you if you function as a co-creative consciousness with them. This means listening to your intuition, and taking responsibility for your actions and decisions. It is not helpful to view the angels as a shortcut to bypass your own human evolution.
Angels are not here to tell us what to do, or to act as a substitute for our own common sense. It doesn’t work to try to make them responsible for the outcomes in our lives. They are beautiful guides and messengers, but we are responsible for what we do.
Angels are a divine gift from our creator, and act as amazing companions that only wish to love us and serve as guides in our individual evolution. They are not here to control us or to take over our human responsibilities. They love each one of us unconditionally, with the same love as our creator, and are happy to assist us in empowering ourselves.
Take advantage of their divine friendship and ask for their comfort and protection, whenever you feel the need.
Do you have any stories of connecting with your angels and receiving their help? Share your thoughts with me on this topic in the comments below.
Hi Saratoga: Thank you for all of the beautiful, helpful, reassuring tips on co-creating with our angels. I once had an experience as a young teenager, of being physically lifted and whisked backward by unseen hands. This prevented me from being crushed under the doubly-wide wheels of a massively long truck which happened to be turning a corner where I stood in the midst of a snowstorm. I believe I’m here today, because of that angel! Blessings to you, Saratoga and thank you helping us all to connect with angelic wisdom, light and love.
Sharon, that’s an amazing story! It’s so beautiful to hear stories like this about the angels. It makes you realize how anything is possible. I also think that there are so many times that our angels protect us and we are not even aware of it.
Thank you for sharing with us! 🙂
Hi Saratoga,
This is such a wonderful article. I really love how you write about angels. For years I have asked the Angels to protect my home. I have envisioned white light around my home,and also, beautiful angels standing on each side, and 1 angel standing on the roof. It makes such a difference!!! I know that my home is safe. I am so grateful for the Angels.
Last Saturday Night, my employer had their Christmas Party. I have been asking for Safety through words and Scripting. It is so interesting, as we had snow that afternoon. I don’t like traveling on snowy or icy roads. What is so interesting, is that the snow stopped in the afternoon. The skies cleared, and it appeared that the storm was over.
My friend who was accompanying me to the party, was driving from Albuquerque. I only wanted him to come if it was safe. As it appeared that the storm was gone, he came with me to the party.
We left the party around 9pm. The skies were still clear. Around 10 to 10;30, I looked outside and it was snowing. I felt so safe. In that moment, I realized that the snow did not start coming down until I was home safely, and my friend was as well.
Is this merely a coincidence? Maybe… I just know that the Angels had something to do with this.
Thank you Angels. I am so grateful for your love and Protection.
Kathleen
I love the way the angels will do this sometimes. If they can, they will rearrange things to help us with our request. So awesome! I think the angels really respond to sincerity in our requests for help. We really connect with them when we speak from the heart with genuineness and humility. They can help us produce miracles, if our consciousness is in the right place.
This is what I mean by co-creation. When we make a conscious request for help, it’s so important not to be fearful or negative, but to come from sincerity and love. The higher our vibration, the better our connection.
Thank you for sharing this, Kathleen. 🙂
I don’t think my guardian angels wait for me to ask for help. I’ve been in some near death situations and have only realized it later.
A few times i knew right away.
I’m so grateful. These angels are powerfully swift in helping. I often thought that if they’re this powerful imagine what Muchael must be like.
During 911 i felt two big angels one on each side of me. I am serious!
Josie, that’s awesome about the two big angels during 9/11. So beautiful! I love that. 🙂
You are so right about guardian angels not always waiting until we ask for help. I am sure there are countless times when they protect us from things, and we are not even aware of it. This is what I tell people who are not sure that their angels are with them. We probably have no idea how much they already do for us.
The reason that I wrote this blog post (along with my Global Vision article last week about connecting with your angels) is because it becomes even more powerful when we learn to consciously co-create with them.
Consciously making an effort to connect with them can bring us tremendous comfort during crazy times like this in the world. I have felt so much angel energy this month! I think the angels really want to help us get through these difficult times.
Thank you so much for sharing your story with us. Blessings!
I was so upset over the Syrian Refugees coming to the U.S. i was livid and scared.
Something happened and i feel peace after all that anger and resistance.
Could an angel have put their hand on me and calmed me?
I know this was not anything that i did. It was too subtle and not sudden like an epiphany. It was just peaceful.
Absolutely, Josie. This sounds very much like the touch of an angel! So lovely 🙂
A couple of years ago I had promised to go to a family reunion at Christmas time. For weeks before, the weather had been bitterly cold and it had snowed from one to four inches almost every day. I felt like I’d been transported to the Yukon. I knew I wouldn’t be able to make the over 700 mile round trip across the Appalachian mountains from Ohio to Virginia in that weather, so I asked God and the angels to please change the weather to make it possible for me to travel safely. This may sound unbelievable, but on the day before leaving a unseasonably warm spell began which lasted until the day I got back. The temperature went from being in single digits almost every day to being in the upper 40’s – even hitting 60 in Virginia. All the snow melted and I was able to go and return easily and safely. The day after I got back, the cold weather began anew. Temperatures dropped back to where they were, snow started again and everything returned to being just as it was before I left. The thing which astonished me was how precise the warm spell was. It started just as I left and ended the day after I returned, and not just where I lived, but where I went and everywhere in between, even in the mountains.
Thank you Saratoga for reminding us about angels. taking your suggestion from a while ago, I’ve also been asking for angel protection and putting light around my car every day before going to work after I got rear-ended by another car at a traffic light. I’m sure there are many people who have a story or two about being protected by angels but just don’t know of a safe place to talk about it to anyone. Thanks for creating such a space Saratoga.
Wow! That’s a pretty awesome story, Tony. It really makes you think about the true nature of reality, doesn’t it? I don’t think things are set in stone the way we think. This is also evidence of the quantum universe, which is extremely malleable.
Thanks so much for sharing this. Lots of love!
I lost my best friend my sister in May of 2015 this September while vacationing in the outer banks. I was really missing her. I took a picture of my son walking on the beach later when I looked at the pictures there in the sky was a beautiful pink angel above him She was with me all along. I would send you the picture but not sure how only know how to message it ! Thanks karen
Wow – that’s beautiful, Karen. Unfortunately, I don’t think there is a way for you to attach a photo to this blog. But you could definitely send it to me on Facebook. There’s a link at the top and bottom of this page.
If you want to do that, just send it as a comment on my Facebook page wherever you like. Love and blessings to you and your family. May angels watch over you all!
Everything has infinite energy…it is from the time of my first memories that I discovered that all things have a vibration… some high,low, quick and slow. This energy is in everything we touch or feel… it surrounds us with good or not so good feelings. Developing this intuition and asking the for guidance from those energies that surround us will enable us to make better choices and decisions in our everyday life. The evolution of self happens when we seek the truth …there is no limit to what we could learn. The Universe is in each and each is in the Universe.
Infinite blessings…Saratoga Ocean
Thank you for the beautiful Angel blog I absolutely love it. While I don’t have a specific story to share, I’ve always believed in Angels and they have protected me throughout my life. I’ve always felt their presence and love. In fact I traveled on vacation and now going back home tomorrow I will make I let them know how I love them.
Luisa, the simplicity of what you share here is beautiful. I love the way you are so relaxed about this.
So often, people try too hard to connect with their angels, or they approach that relationship from their thinking minds, which only leads to frustration. The angels exist in another dimension, so trying to connect with them in the same way we connect with each other here just doesn’t work.
Thank you for sharing your simple, lovely experience!
Kim, that’s awesome that you sensed that energy from such a young age. And I agree that there is no limit to what we can learn. We are barely scratching the surface.
The other thing that many forget is that our biological, Earth brains are only capable of so much. Our languages, as well, are incredibly limited. So it is wise to rely on our infinite spirit and our hearts, where our highest level of intelligence lies.
Thank you Saratoga and everyone who’s left a comment. These are all beautiful and inspiring messages.
I also wondered how often the angels nudge us to help them assist others.
I recall one evening as I was about to walk home from work that I had a thought to take a different route for no apparent reason. I did, and as I was approaching a busy intersection, I spotted a young woman who’d just stepped off the curb into the street coming toward me as I was about to cross. She suddenly stopped, dropped her handbag and started slumping to the ground. Without thinking, I ran up to her, grabbed her and her bag and rushed her across the street just as the lights changed and cars started turning into the intersection. I managed to get her to a bench where I sat with her until she came too. Turns out she had had an epileptic seizure. I was then able to walk her home and she assured me she was fine. She had a long history of epilepsy.
I was amazed by how quickly and effortlessly all this unfolded – in the dark and among a crowd of people. It really felt that this woman and I had been lovingly supported to get her to safety. I was left with a sense of awe and gratitude that I could help and wondered how often these “interventions” happen, many, I’m sure, without our being fully aware of them. How often have I said or done something that helped someone and not been aware that the angels were guiding me?
This is a beautiful story, Lucille! And it makes such an important point. Very often the angels will guide another human being to aid someone who is asking for or needing their angelic help.
This is an awesome story of that angelic synchronicity. Thank you so much for sharing it with us!
Hi Saratoga. This was an awesome article. A year ago we were plagued with a likely storm oh yea, I was concerned. I saw angels in the sky and they said all will be OK. I ended up sharing that with a friend.
I’m so glad you enjoyed this, Cathie. That’s so cool about seeing angels in the sky to reassure you! Angels are so amazing in that they have so many ways to communicate with us.
It was winter night. Cold and snowy. I was waiting for my teenage son to come back home from his work as a busboy. It was a time we did not have a cellphones. I became very anxious, it was late and he supposed to be home by this time. I was standing near the window, and I prayed to the guardian angels to keep him safe and get him home soon… After he got home, he told me, his co-worker asked him to give him a ride home, the area we lived at this time wasn’t very safe, the area my son’s co-worker lived was even worse… Anyway, my son told me, on his way home, it was a car that was driving at him, it had to be a collision. And it that moment he felt like someone’s hands was moving his car over, so it was no accident, which supposed to happen. It was long time ago, I still got chills recalling this night. I’m sure, it wasn’t only time of the Angelic intervention, however, I remember it because I was stunned by my son’s story. Thank you Saratoga Ocean, and every one’s post for sharing. Love & Light to All
Greetings Saratoga,
I do believe in angels and many times my guides have helped me in so many ways.
My angel story is….many years ago when I was experiencing loneliness and fear I had a breakdown of tears and self pity come over me and I knelt on the floor to steady myself and my emotions. When suddenly I felt the softness of two hands be placed gently on my shoulders. I immediately gasped and felt my sorrow disappear. I felt reassured and like a great weight had been lifted. It was such an unexpected experience and so beautiful.
I was reminded that I was and never will be alone ever.
Blessings to you
I’ve had several incidents in my life that I can’t explain. Driving home from work during the blizzard of 1978. I was 5 minutes away from home when suddenly my car started to slide across to other side of the road. A school bus was coming down the hill. Without thinking I just turned the wheel toward a stone wall and the bus missed me by inches. I hit the wall and spun around. There was no damage to the car,wall or me. Out of nowhere this pick up truck appears and two men got out asked me if I was ok and helped me turn my car around. When I went to thank them they were gone. To this day I still can’t remember what the looked like. My daughter in law had a similar experience driving home on the highway one night. Hit something in the road and when off the road.
I can definately say that my late Ihusband is at my side each and every day. He sends me repeated same number when I am afraid. or stressed. . I feel immediately reassured and strong again. Archangel Michael and Archangel Raphael are with me all the time too . they show me I am not alone . Could not imagine life without them.
