Archangel Michael
Angels are pure energy - like if God is the sun, angels are the rays. They don’t have gender. They aren’t people with wings and halos. They don’t have religion, although many religions recognize angels. They are Divine Messengers and benevolent beings. And, they follow the Universal Law of Free Will, so unless it’s a matter of life and death, and not our time to go, they cannot interfere unless we ask.
Archangel Michael is probably the most well-known archangel. His name means he who is like God, and in my experience Michael is wonderful! He’s powerful. He’s a fierce protector and healer, and in a battle of wills, Michael will ALWAYS win!
Michael was the first archangel that I recognized as angelic presence around me. When I would do yoga, and we would get to savasana (the final resting pose) and close our eyes, I would often see a blue light. It was so pretty that I looked forward to it every time. The same thing happened when I would get massages and she would massage my head. I felt so loved and comforted. This happened for several years before I recognized it as Michael’s presence, but I came to know the “blue light” as a peaceful presence who calmed my mind of racing thoughts and made me feel safe in my body.
After I became attuned in reiki, my angelic experiences increased a lot and I knew that I was meant to work with the angels. Michael shows up every day in one way or another. There was one point when my sister, Rebekka, and I were having a discussion about angels while I was driving and she asked why it’s always “Michael, Michael, Michael”? Well…He showed us!!!! My car immediately started making this LOUD, high-pitched, static-y, annoying noise. I tried turning off my radio, but that did nothing. I tried adjusting the volume, but that did nothing. Rebekka hung up because it was so bad for her, and I tried calling her back. It started right up again. We gave it a couple minutes and tried again. There was peace. We acknowledged that we would NEVER question “what’s so special about Michael” again! We are true believers!!! And, never again have I ever had such an annoying sound occur in my car, talking to Rebekka, or anyone else.
Michael has some specialties worth knowing about so you can call on him. A particularly important one is his help and protection with car-travel. I made sure to gift all my family members with Archangel Michael visor clips for their cars, which I infused with reiki and invoked Archangel Michael to protect their cars and everyone and everything in them. (This seemed especially prudent when daughter #2 was moving across country with all of her worldly possessions in the car…and I’m happy to report a completely boring and uneventful trip from point A to B. The cars ran the way they should. Everyone stayed safe, with not so much as a flat tire or“near miss”. And all of the belongings were untouched by people who thought a vacuum cleaner or beach towels looked like something they might want to have for themselves!) One of my most-memorable Michael moments was December 26, 2020. It was after dinner and Barnes and Noble was having a big sale on books that the women in my family did not want to miss, so, although it was snowing heavily, and the temperature was falling, we decided to go. Being Minnesotans, we didn’t think much of it. And, since my youngest daughter’s boyfriend was stuck at home with Covid, she really wanted to drop the book she got for him off at his house before heading home. We all agreed it would be okay. A couple inches accumulated while we were in B&N, and I drove very slowly to Boyfriend’s house. The highway was pretty slick and visibility was low and I was beginning to question the wisdom of my decision. We made it to his house, dropped off the book and made our way back to the highway…which was not yet plowed going the opposite direction. As I transitioned from the on-ramp to the highway, I hit a patch of ice and we started to slide. We could see cars in the ditch and lights of cars in front and behind us. I am no Mario Andretti, but it was as if someone had taken possession of my hands as I cranked the wheel left, then right, then left, then right as we fish-tailed between the three lanes of traffic. We didn’t get into an accident, nor did my car cause any! Thank you, Michael, for keeping so many of us safe on the road that night!
It is said, that of all the angels Michael is the one most likely to take human form. I’ve read so many books and heard so many accounts of people who have been in car accidents and had someone show up to help named “Michael”, who mysteriously disappeared once they were okay. Perhaps you’ve had an experience with him? I’d love to hear it in the comments below!
Archangel Michael, or Saint Michael, is the patron saint of military and police. He serves and protects the people who serve and protect, and it’s no wonder that so many of them have “dress blues”. You don’t have to be in the military or the police for Michael’s protection. He is here for all of us. In fact, he has a sword of light which he uses to cut cords and attachments to us that are no longer serving us. It’s a good idea to ask Michael to cut those cords at the end of each day, and also when you’ve encountered someone in your path who has left you feeling sad, angry, tired, depressed, or physically agitated or tight in the chest. A lot of times we will pick up energy that is not ours, but then feel like it’s ours, and try to deal with it. Michael can help separate those attachments so the only person’s stuff we’re dealing with is our own.
Michael is also a healer. One of my favorite books, by Lorna Byrne, explains how she was doing a lot of healing and a lot of praying for people. God noticed this and sent Michael to her with an easy and specific prayer to say to help. I now use it before every reiki session, and whenever someone asks me to send prayer or healing energy. I cannot recommend it enough and will share it with you here. Please don’t hesitate to use it whenever you or someone you love needs some healing energy. It’s so powerful!
Prayer of Thy Healing Angels that is Carried from God, by Michael, Thy Archangel
Pour out thy healing angels, thy heavenly host, upon those that I love. Let me feel the beam of thy healing angels upon me, the light of your healing hands. I will let thy healing begin whatever way God grants it. Amen
There have been entire books written about Michael, so instead of continuing this rather word-y blog, I will stop here, and encourage you to learn more about Michael and the other angels from as many sources as you are called to.
I am excited to announce that I will be teaching my Communicating with Angels Class at least 3 times before the end of the year. On August 11th, I will teach it in Vadnais Heights , MN at TriLuminous. On October 19th, I will teach it again at Soulstice Wellness Center in Eau Claire, WI. And, on December 13th, I will teach it through White Bear Lake Community Education in Minnesota. I am also working out dates with Awakenings in Minneapolis, MN and Awakened Soul in Hudson, WI. If any of these interest or excite you, please text me for more information, and as I get more firm details, I will add them to my website and Facebook and Instagram pages!
Peace and light,
