Angels

As well as the dead people who help us on our journey, there is another group who are assisting us. These are the angels. Dead people who are simply taking a break are usually referred to as spirit guides. Angels are not dead people!
In fact, angels have never experienced the physical plane. They are on a totally different journey to us.  Their role is to assist us on the physical plane. Similarly, faeries, devas, gnomes and elementals are all on the same plane as the angels and have never experienced the physical world.  In the same way as people are learning, evolving and growing, so too are these spirits. Where humanity is the most evolved on the physical plane, angels and archangels are the most evolved of this group that are directly assisting us.  Archangels are even more evolved but are much more powerful than angels and while they have an overall role to play in assisting humanity, they are far too powerful to assist individuals who would be blown away by their energy levels.
There is also a hierarchy within the archangels.  Religious and other literature has described the most evolved archangels as the solar archangels.  These are of incredible size and power and oversee the evolution of the solar system and the planets.  Planetary archangels assist the solar archangels and associated with each planet in the solar system.  These planetary archangels are assisted by angels who are responsible for guiding the evolution of specific plant and animal species.
Other angels are connected to each of the different religions and are assisting in the spiritual development of its followers.  The literature of the world religions has spoken extensively of this type of angel.
In addition, certain archangels are believed to govern the progress of great periods of human evolution.  It is suggested, for instance, that Archangel Gabriel inspired the period of the Renaissance (1510-1879).  The present period is said to be inspired by Archangel Michael.
Some western religions also teach of the existence of guardian angels.  These are personal angels who guide and protect us throughout our lives.  These guardian angels have long been recognised as guides who help with our personal evolution, and offer us comfort, support and guidance as we tread the often difficult path of living in the day to day world.
Whether we’re working with guardian angels or spirit guides, the process is basically the same – we ask for their help! In most instances they are unable to assist us unless we ask for their help. This was one of the hardest lessons for me to learn. I had spent my whole life believing that to ask for help was a sign of weakness. I now regularly ask for guidance and surrender myself to the direction I am taken. It’s not easy at first but can be great fun once we learn to trust.
