How is it possible to summon an angel?

There is a time in life when we seek to meet the sacred. Faith moves us in a profound way and through it we are able to communicate with divine beings. They will be responsible for guiding us on our path and ensure our protection. Angels were sent by God who fulfill this function of preserving humanity.

Besides ensuring our safety, they are also responsible for various influences in our lives. They are always guiding us in our decisions to walk towards love.

Invoking an angel is a powerful skill that will enable closer communication with the divine. When learning it, it is very important to be aware of your actions before invoking. Prepare to understand what an angel is and how to invoke him, in the reading below.

What is an angel

Angels are creatures that are present in the Judeo-Christian tradition, being better known in the West. According to the accounts described in the Bible, God created these celestial beings with one condition: that they serve as his messengers. They are often responsible for taking the message of the Word to man.

Understand a little about what an angel is, their hierarchy and their functions in the physical and spiritual world in the following topics.

Guardian Angel

Every human being has a guardian angel for him since birth. These angels are given a mission, to accompany and watch over their individual until the end of his earthly mission. Therefore, your guardian angel is responsible for watching over and guiding your path throughout your life.

However, they cannot influence our free will. The way they have to influence us lies in the nature of the spirit and in the surroundings. They intervene from there in the spiritual energy and in the surroundings, seeking in this way to light our way.

Therefore, it is not necessary to establish any kind of contact with your angel, since he will always be by your side. But for those who seek to approach the celestial beings and are in search of answers, they find in the invocation of the angel a means to obtain them.

In the Bible and Koran

Angels are mentioned in both the Bible and the Koran. They usually appear to send a divine message, such as the appearance of the Angel Gabriel to Mary. This is the moment when the coming of the child Jesus is announced.

Although he was not called upon, the angel was present at that moment to fulfill the designs of God. Who as his superior, had sent him as a messenger to the Virgin Mary.

The function of angels

The angels' main function is to be messengers. They are responsible for establishing a communication between God and men. Thus allowing their words to be heard by human beings and helping them to follow their word so that their mission on earth is accomplished.

Categories of angels

Before beginning any invocation process it will be necessary to understand the hierarchy of heaven. By knowing more about the angels and how spiritual beings are organized, you will know how best to deal with them.

The angels are divided into nine choirs, as quoted in the Bible. They were catalogued by St. Thomas Aquinas by dividing them into nine categories which are: the Seraphim, the Cherubim, the Thrones (or Ophanim), the Dominions, the Powers, the Virtues, the Principalities, the Archangels and lastly the Angels.

How to call upon an angel

Obeying their hierarchy, the angels are the closest beings to the human being. Therefore, there are no restrictions that prevent their invocation. But for this to happen you need to obey some steps to create a communication with celestial beings. Understand below how to invoke your angel.

Nice place

Angels are enlightened beings who need a pleasant place to be invoked. For this it is important to create a suitable environment for their emergence. First, make a cleaning in place and throw all the garbage collected out. Then proceed with a spiritual cleansing with coarse salt or burning eucalyptus leaves.

Another important detail is that you perform the ritual in a room where you feel comfortable. This way you will be able to keep the most pleasant environment possible to receive your guardian angel and avoid any kind of noise in the communication.

Light a candle

After cleaning your environment, take a candle. Fire is a primordial element to channel the energies. When lighting it, thank God and show gratitude for all the help that he and your angel offer you. The feeling of gratitude is an important step to establish communication with him.

Ordering

When the invocation of the angel is made, make your motivations clear and make the request from the heart. If there is any conflict between your spirit and your wills you may interrupt the ritual. Therefore, be sure of your convictions and do not be shaken when you meet him. Remember that he is there for a purpose, this will help you to make the request.

Say a prayer

At the time of invocation it makes no difference how you will do it. It can be either out loud or in your thoughts, regardless of the form chosen your request will be made. Mentalize your desire and make your request with faith, this way you will gain confidence and will be prepared to hear the voice of your angel.

Prayer to invoke the angel

There are several prayers that can be said at the moment of invocation. Among all of them, the most known and used by other people is the prayer "Holy Angel Lord". This Catholic prayer was written with the purpose of asking for the protection of your guardian angel as a form of clemency.

Through your cry you request that the angel come into your life. The prayer is based on a writing by Reginaldo da Cantuário and is done in the following manner:

Holy Angel of the Lord,

my zealous guardian,

if I have been entrusted with divine mercy,

always watch over me, rule over me,

rule me, enlighten me,

Amen."

Prayer from Psalm 86 to invoke the angel

The prayer of Psalm 86 is first prayed by King David. He had urgency in his request for help from God, so he cried out the prayer with deep emotion and hope that he would be helped by him. Believing in his God and divine mercy he demonstrated his gratitude and faith.

David's heart proves faithful to the word and the prayer is proclaimed as follows:

Incline your ear, O Lord, and hear me, for I am needy and afflicted. Keep my soul, for I am holy: O my God, save your servant, who trusts in you. Have mercy on me, O Lord, for I cry to you all the day long. Rejoice the soul of your servant, for to you, O Lord, I lift up my soul.

For you, O Lord, are good, and ready to forgive, and plenteous in mercy to all who call upon you. Give ear, O Lord, to my prayer, and heed the voice of my supplications. In the day of my trouble I cry to you, for you answer me. Among the gods there is none like you, O Lord, nor any works like your works.

All nations whom you have made shall come and worship before you, O Lord, and shall glorify your name. For you are great and do great wonders; you alone are God. Teach me your way, O Lord, and I shall walk in your truth; unite my heart to the fear of your name.

I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with my whole heart, and will glorify thy name for ever: for great is thy mercy toward me; and thou hast delivered my soul from the deepest grave. O God, the proud are risen up against me, and the assemblies of tyrants have sought my soul, and have not set thee before their eyes.

But thou, O Lord, art a God full of compassion, and merciful, and longsuffering, and great in lovingkindness and in truth: turn unto me, and have mercy upon me; give thy strength thy servant, and save the son of thy servant. Show me a sign for good, that they which hate me may see it, and be confounded: for thou, O Lord, hast helped me, and comforted me."

How to invoke an angel with a question

When a doubt settles in our mind, our thoughts become clouded. Nothing seems clear enough to explain them, making it impossible to make any decision. This is when your guardian angel can help you.

If doubts arise on your path or a decision needs to be made, you need to follow some recommendations in your invocation ritual. Follow the reading and learn how to invoke an angel with a question.

Lie down and recite the invocation

The time when we rest on the bed is intense for those who are confused in their thoughts. This may be a great opportunity for you to contact your angel and resolve these issues. In him you will find the wisdom needed to solve your problems.

To begin the dialogue with your guardian angel, first lie down. Try to be still on the bed, reflect on these thoughts and thank your angel for his support. Then recite these words to perform the invocation:

I call upon you, my Guardian Angel.

You who help me to govern my life correctly,

You, my Angel, I thank you sincerely.

By the power of the Four Elements,

Fire, Water, Air and Earth, receive my Request."

Clear your mind

In this process it is important that you keep your mind calm. If you are feeling anxious, nervous or irritated, try to calm down. Because, your emotional state can influence the result of your ritual.

To improve the state of your emotions, close your eyes and empty your mind. In a meditation exercise, focus your attention on your breathing and keep your body relaxed. Only in this way will you be able to make contact with your angel.

Ask the question

There is no set time for the appearance of your protector, he will appear when the time is right, as you recite the prayer and demonstrate your faith this time can be reduced. If you are feeling lighter, even seeming to levitate, that is the time to ask your question to the angel.

Clarity of what you want

Clarity is fundamental to invoke your guardian angel. If you are not sure of your questions, no one will be able to help you. Therefore, it is necessary to prepare yourself mentally, align your questions and get an answer from your angel.

To help you formulate your question, try talking to yourself in a low voice. This self-awareness exercise will allow you to have greater clarity of your motivations and allow you to formulate your question with greater confidence.

In the first attempts

Surely, you will not succeed in your first attempts. You will probably fall asleep or not get the answer you so desperately need. This is normal, because as mentioned before, everything will depend on your demonstration of faith. Which can only be proven with persistence and dedication.

As the attempts are made, you will feel the difference and realize how close this holy being is to you. Always show gratitude, this will create trust and soon you will benefit from this encounter. For, the angel will illuminate your thoughts and guide you on your path.

The angel's answer

This answer can be transmitted in many ways, being communicated through an immediate intuition (or insight) or a vision or it will appear in your dreams. Either way, the answer from your messenger will come to you when the time is right. And when it arrives, you will have a clearer vision of your life.

When the angel doesn't answer

If you don't receive a response from your angel, this indicates that you are performing the ritual incorrectly. Whether it is your motivation or your faith, something is missing and needs to be improved. However, don't worry, the important thing for invocation is to persist. Do it again the next day and make an effort.

When invoking an angel you need to show attention and how important this revelation will be to your life. Keep your thoughts positive and be open to the experiences. When the invocation is done with love, you will prove that your soul is pure.

Why should we invoke the guardian angel?

Guardian angels are beings of light. Their spiritual function is to guide us and protect our path in this world. Life often seems confusing and we often feel lost on this path. Angels appear as a support that encourages us and helps us in the moments we need it most.

As long as we exist in the earthly world, they will always be by our side. Therefore, we should only invoke them when a situation arises that requires an immediate response. This will allow you to find the solutions and have greater clarity of vision. Illuminating your path and enabling an improvement in your life.

Always keep your faith, it will do unimaginable things for you. Things that only God would be able to move, thus allowing you to go your way with safety and prosperity.
