Orders Of Angelic Beings
(This is an excerpt from a University Of Metaphysical Sciences course at www.umsonline.org,
please feel free to visit the school website)
The first sphere is “Seraphim” which is the highest hierarchy. They regulate the movement of the heavens as it emanates from God. “Cherubim” are proclaimers and protectors of God’s glorious presence. Next is Thrones, which are companion angels of the planets.
The second sphere are angels who works as heavenly governors. “Dominions” govern activities of all the lower angelic groups they are to serve and integrate the spiritual and the material world. Next is “Virtues” able to beam massive levels of divine energy. “Power Bearers” are the keepers of the collective’s history, or akashic records.
The third sphere is a heavenly messengers principality. This includes guardian angels of large groups, from families to cities to nations.
Archangels are over lighting angels. A few archangels are described below:
Gabriel: (God is my strength) He is the angel who came to Mary and her cousin Elizabeth pronouncing the birth of their sons. In matters of the arts and any kind of creativity, call on Gabriel. He is the guardian of emotions and relationships.
Michael: (He who is like God) He champions the people of God in warfare and opposes God’s enemies. He appeared to Moses and rescued Daniel form the lion’s den. He is the guardian of the house of spirit and dreams and is working with cooperation and reconciliation. Michael weilds the “sword of truth,” which cuts through illusion and reveals what is truth.
Raphael: (God has healed) He is charged with healing earth and medical missions. It is claimed that Raphael gave Noah the much prized medical book after the flood. He is also called the guide in hell, which is where healing is needed the most. If you are a healer or need healing, invoke Raphael. This power can be brought to bear on physical, mental and emotional illness.
Uriel: (Fire of God) Archangels of salvation stood at the gate of Eden with a fiery sword. They were sent by God to warn Noah of the impending flood. Uriel brings transformative energies to the mind in working with science, economics, politics and anything that involves organizations, systems, structures and all work-related issues.
Ariel: (Lion of God) This angel controls the demons. He is one of the seven Princes who rules the waters and is known as earth’s great Lord.
Nature spirits are angel’s cousins. They are in a different wavelength. They are the divas, fairies, and gnomes. They are the presiding patterns that oversee all plants and minerals. They nurture physical environments which they do independently of human efforts. You can connect with the nature spirits whenever you tend to your plants, follow impulses to hug a tree, walk in a garden, or eat anything that has been grown.
Our human bodies also have nature spirits or divas. The divas of our bodies are the organizing principles that coordinate the immense amount of information constantly flowing through the physical body. You might think of these spirits as tinkerers who keep the physical body tunes and in working order, working at the microscopic level.
