|
|
In the past year or so I have noticed an interesting correlation between Celestial events and an influx in my e-mail regarding people seeing Angels, Guides and Spirits, and wanting more information. Due to the inability to answer so many all at once I have decided to post some of the articles from my site on here in hopes that those who are looking for answers will find them here and in a timely manner.
The Journey HAS begun ...
With Love & Light .... Cathi

On Angels ~
ANGELS
Throughout time, millions of people have felt the grace and guidance of Angels. People in all walks of life have been helped, guided, saved or just confronted by their Guardian Angels and are more than eager to share their encounters with anyone willing to listen.
George Washington spoke of his Guardian Angel often, and credited his success at Valley Forge to 'an inspiring visit from a heavenly being'.
Abraham Lincoln often called upon the healing powers and wisdom of the Angels to help guide him and heal the nation in times of death and devestation.
Stories of encounters with these Celestial Beings have been around since the beginning of written history.
Angels are all around and watching over us. They are more popular and more visible today than ever before. And even though they have always been with us, it seems as though we are just discovering them.
In spite of all the skepticism, human belief in these Heavenly Beings has withstood the test of time and lately more people are willing to come forward and share their stories of encounters with these Heavenly visitations.
Anyoe whose life has been touched by an Angel will agree wholeheartedly that these Angels are indeed messengers from God.
According to the dictionary an Angel is ..."a celestial attendant of God; one of a class of Spiritual Beings who, in Medieval Angelology, were the lowest of the nine celestial orders: Seraphim, Cherubim, Thrones, Dominions, Virtues, Powers, Principalities, Archangels and Angels."...However for most people, an Angel is an Angel, regardless of their so called 'rank'.
THE RANK OF ANGELS:
In the 5th Century A.D., a Middle Eastern Scholar named Dionysius studied the references to Angels in the Scriptures and other non-biblical sources. He concluded that there were 9 'classes', or 'choirs', of Angels which were divided into 3 'spheres'. Even though there are some minor discrepencies in the field of Angel scholars, Dionysius' Hierarchy of Angels is still accepted today and are as follows... (starting with those closest to God)
*1st Sphere ~ [b]Seraphim, Cheribum and Thrones
*2nd Sphere ~ Dominions, Virtues and Powers
*3rd Sphere ~ Principalities, Archangels and Angels. [/b]
SERAPHIM:
Sometimes called 'the burning ones' because they are closest to God and radiate Pure Light. These are the Angels who constantly sing God's praise, and whose duty it is to regulate the heavens. (Lucifer is said to have been one of the Seraphim who had outshone all the others untill he became the head of the fallen angels).
CHERUBIM:
Sent to guard the gates of Eden. Originally they were depicted as the bearers of God's Throne, as the charioteers, and as powerful beings with four wings and four faces. However, in modern times, Cheribum have evolved into chubby babies with wings.
THRONES:
Called the 'many eyed ones' have the duty of carrying out God's decisions. They are often represented as firey wheels.
DOMINIONS:
Their job is to regulate the duties of the other Angels and ensure that God's wishes are carried out.
VIRTUES:
The Angels of Grace who bring God's blessings to Earth, usually in the form of miracles. Known as the 'brilliant' or 'shinning' ones, they are associated with acts of heroism and bring courage when needed.
POWERS:
Their job is to prevent the 'fallen angels' from taking over the world and keeping the Universe in balance. They are also seen as the Angels of birth and death.
PRINCIPALITIES:
The Guardian Angels of cities, nations and rulers, and guards against the invasion of evil angels.
ARCHANGELS:
Probably the best known of all Angels. They carry God's most important messages to humans. They also command God's 'armies' of Angels in the constant battle with the 'sons of darkness'.
ANGELS:
The Celestial Beings closest to humans. They act as intermediaries between the Almighty and humanity. Often called our 'Guardian Angels'.
Angels and Atheists
Angels may appear to anyone, regardless of religious backgrounds or beliefs. Case in point... in 1985 a Russian space scientist defected and then told what had happened to 6 cosmonauts aboard the Soyuz 7 space station....
After orbiting the Earth for 155 days, a band of Angels had miraculously appeared outside their spacecraft.
Leonid Kizim, Vladimir Solevev and Oleg Artkov were working on routine medical experiments when suddenly they were nearly blinded by a brilliant orange light from outside the orbiting laboratory.
It took a few seconds for their eyes to adjust to the astonishing radiance, but then, according to the secret report, they had "...seen giant figures in the form of humans, but with wings and mist-like halos as in the classic depiction of Angels. They appeared to be hundreds of feet tall with a wingspan as great as a jetliner." |

It has been interesting how these sudden influxes of visitations come in waves and all around certain times ... ie: just before a major disaster, an eclipse, large solar flares, or even just certain configurations. And since we have an ecliptical full moon influence happening I am starting to get a lot of mail again.
>>I know that your articles are generating a lot of readers. They're always in the Top 20 pages on the site!<<
You have no idea the flutter I just had in my hert and the smile on my face right now! I am so happy that this is a topic of interest for people and that I can have a part in helping them understand!
I know there is some of this ... maybe all ... on the HealingDeva site, I'd plaster it all over the walls in th city if I could! ... lol ... ok..so maybe I am a bit obsessed with them .... but at least thinking about them always brings a smile to the face back to generating ... |

So now I had to go look at the Web stats, which I very rarely do (due to lack of time), to see where your angel topic is this month, thus far.......
Top 10 of 155 Total Entry Pages
# Hits Visits URL
1 955 639 / (that's the home page)
2 587 512 /herpes.htm
3 622 510 /thyroid.htm
4 381 298 /spam.htm
So, Cathi... you are indeed plastering it all over the walls... all over the world.
If I were to go back to all the months this has been on the website, I could safely guess that at least 1000 people, every single month, without fail, have been reading your articles on Angels.
