He's Forever Grateful To Archangel Michael

Hello Friends!
​
I received an email this week describing the most mind-blowing Angelic experience! And now the gentleman who wrote it has given me permission to share it with you!

I receive a number of emails each week from readers sharing their Divine stories and Angel encounters. I love them all and get very excited reading them.

But this unforgettable story brought tears to my eyes, goosebumps to my arms, and deep gratitude to my heart. Here is his story in its entirety:

I watched a YouTube video with you in it talking about speaking with Archangels. I was very drawn to your book, How To Chat With Archangels, after that, and ordered it right away on Amazon. I have been reading the book this week and was up to the chapter with Archangel Michael. I stopped to ask them to be part of my life. I have to admit that Archangel Michael has been a part of life for a long time. I took a Reiki Class online by a woman that does Reiki with angels. One of the requirements for this class is the ability to communicate with the Archangels. That was probably one of the reasons I bought the book, but I ultimately wanted to be able to communicate with them more clearly anyway.

I sheepishly asked the Archangels to protect myself and my family as well as to send me a sign that they were there truly!!

I was woken up this morning by my daughter who is the light of my life. She lives in the city and I constantly worry about her. Well, she sounded upset and slowly told me she had been in an accident but that she was OK. I said thank God out loud I think. Then she said I can send you pictures of the Jeep. She is on my insurance policy so she needed to know what to do. I looked at the pictures. It looked like one of the cars had smashed into her driver side door. There was debris everywhere around the door and I could see where the car looked like it had impacted her door. Once she sent me those pictures I said ok, send me a picture of the door without a car sitting in front of it.

There isn't even a scratch!!! I asked for a sign that they were with me...and I got it today just one day after asking. Archangel Michael protected my little girl from harm because I asked and because I read you book last night and was moved to ask for protection!

You might have gotten a giant angelic cloud but I got a daughter protected from harm so I have to thank you from the bottom of my heart for writing this book and sharing it with the world. I realized when my daughter showed me the picture of the door that I had gotten the sign I asked for! I also told her she needed to say thank you to Michael for his protection. I know I got down on my knees and thanked him again and again and again!

I shared two of the pictures so you would understand there was no doubt my little girl had angelic protection!

Well friends, if you have ever doubted that the Archangels, our Divine Best Friends, love us and want to help us, this story should set your mind and heart at ease. It can be a difficult world for all of us, so Archangels were created by God to help humanity, and to be the bridge between Him and humans. Each Archangel was given a specific area of expertise to help with that endeavor. Archangel Michael is the Angel of Protection, and as such, he fights for us on every level. And he is just waiting for you to ask for his help, as this gentleman did. So, ask, have faith, and trust. Truly, we are so blessed!

Angel Love and Light,

Meet the Angel of the North

​Hello Friends!
​
About four years ago, my hubby, Howard, and I toured the British Isles. I had just started writing my book, How To Chat With Archangels, and someone told me there was an Angel sculpture in Newcastle (Gateshead) England that I absolutely had to see in person. And after doing a bit of research before the trip, I couldn’t wait to experience that Angel for myself!
​
The Angel of the North has become one of the most recognizable and talked about pieces of public art ever produced. It is considered as iconic to the area as the Statue of Liberty is to New York. Sculptor Antony Gormley was selected, in 1994, to design a sculpture above the site where coal miners had toiled in the dark for two hundred years.

As he worked, though, there was controversy about the project, as people weren’t sure about the design, or the materials used. But once it was completed in 1998, all those people, and many more, fell in love with the Angel.
​
The Angel of the North is believed to be the largest Angel sculpture in the world. Its 175-foot wingspan is bigger than a Boeing 757. It stands 65 feet high - the height of a five-story building. The Angel’s body weighs 100 tons while its wings weigh 50 tons each.

There is enough steel in the sculpture to build four tanks, giving it the strength to withstand winds of more than 100 miles per hour. Below, massive concrete piles anchor the Angel to solid rock. Cor-ten steel, containing copper, helps resist weather, forming a patina on the surface to mellow with time.
​
Mr. Gormley said of his Angel, “The hilltop site is important and has the feeling of being a megalithic mound. When you think of the mining that was done underneath the site, there is a poetic resonance. Men worked beneath the surface in the dark. Now in the light, there is a celebration of this industry. The face will not have individual features. The effect of the piece is in the alertness, the awareness of space, and the gesture of the wings - they are not flat, they're about 3.5 degrees forward and give a sense of embrace.”

Well, dear readers, I have to tell you that visiting the Angel of the North was one of the most profound experiences I’ve ever had. First, I was able to catch glimpses of the huge sculpture through the windshield of the car as our driver drew closer to the site. It felt like the Angel beckoned me.

In my excitement, I leaped from the car almost before the driver pulled to a full stop. I didn’t even wait for Howard to catch up. As my feet pulled me forward into a run, I felt giddy as a child.

And then…I was beneath the wings of the Angel of the North! Tingling, electric waves of energy ingulfed me, in a way completely new to me. By the time Howard came over and stood beside me, tears of happiness shone in my eyes. Howard could feel it too. How was it possible? I don’t know. But there we were feeling these incredible vibrations.

I finally looked around to see what was going on nearby. So many people. Children running with glee. Families gathered for picnics on blankets on this warm, sunny, glorious day. I pointed out to Howard how everyone we looked at had a smile on their face. Was this because every soul could feel the love emanating from the Angel of the North? Yes. I’m convinced that’s the case!

If you ever have the opportunity to visit that area of England, please do yourself a favor and take the time to experience the Angel of the North! You’ll want to spend a long time in the Angel’s presence. And please send me an email describing your experience!

Angel Love and Light,

Debra

Archangel Barachiel's primary role is to bring many blessings for ourselves and our loved ones. Inspiring our optimism and faith, he guides us to be more grateful, as gratitude leads us to higher spiritual enlightenment as we recognize and give thanks for what we already have.

As a champion of marriage and families, Angel Barachiel provides protection against negative influences that may be disrupting our familial harmony. Call upon him during times of conflict, frustration, anger, or confusion, and he will help clear up misunderstandings, dispelling darkness and fear, and filling our lives with light and positivity. His presence can transform despair into hope, and sadness into joy.

A significant symbol associated with Angel Barachiel is a basket overflowing with loaves of bread. This symbol represents the physical, emotional, and spiritual abundance we can enjoy as he brings us Divine nourishment to satisfy and fortify our hungry bodies, minds, and souls.

​Finally, Angel Barachiel is the leader of all the Guardian Angels. Guardian Angels provide protection, wisdom, and encouragement, watching over all humans throughout our lives. Some of us have more than one Guardian Angel, who send us signs—such as sudden inspiration, meaningful coincidences, or even gut feelings—to help guide us to make the best choices for our highest good. Feel free to ask Angel Barachiel to help you connect more deeply with your Guardian Angel(s).

I’m going to continue to get to know Archangel Barachiel better and better. I intend to communicate with him tonight using my journal - as I explain step-by-step in my book, How To Chat With Archangels. I can’t wait to “hear” all he has to say in our upcoming conversations. And I look forward to how grateful I’ll be for the many blessings that will soon be raining down on me and everyone else who needs them. And who doesn’t? Thank you, Angel Barachiel!

Angel Love and Light,
​

Yes! Meet Ariel - Angel of Nature!

Hello Friends!

I’m often asked if there are female Archangels. Yes, there are a number of female Archangels such as Gabriel, Jophiel, and Haniel.

Even though Archangels don’t have specific male or female genders, they are spiritual beings and as such, they possess both male and female energies. Some of these Angels emit stronger and more distinct female vibrations, and spiritually sensitive people can actually feel the difference when they are in contact with these Divine Beings.

One of the Archangels who emits a strong feminine energy is Angel Ariel. Angel Ariel’s name means “The Lioness of God.” The lion or lioness represents courage, leadership, and strength.

Like all Archangels, she projects a color or colors of the light spectrum. Her color is a soft, pale pink (unlike Archangel Jophiel who projects the colors hot pink and bright yellow).

Each Archangel specializes in one or more areas of expertise, in order to assist humans. That is why God created them. And Angel Ariel’s considerable strength is focused on overseeing and helping nature and earth’s natural resources. She works to protect animals, plants, soil, waterways, and the environment in general.

​You simply have to ask her. Because you have been given the gift of free will by God, Angel Ariel, cannot intrude on your life, even to help you, unless she’s invited in. All the Archangels must obey this Universal Law, except in life-or-death situations. I explain this concept in more detail in my book, How To Chat With Archangels.
​
I sure wish I had known more about Archangel Ariel back in April of 1974, when Howard, my then-fiancé, took me camping in lovely Cumberland Falls State Park in Kentucky two months before our wedding. He said it would be fun! It was my first time camping. And it was my last time camping. In fact, in our fifty years of marriage since, Howard has never once suggested we try camping again!
​
Although I’ll only mention it briefly in this blog, I actually detailed that whole uncomfortable, maddening, and embarrassing nature-outing in my first book, Bio-Touch: Healing With The Power In Our Fingertips. If only I had known that I could have called upon Angel Ariel to help me through that most unfun and unromantic weekend filled with heat, humidity, sweat, prickly-heat-induced skin rashes, bathroom inconveniences, mud, and rain drip…drip…dripping on us all night inside our cramped, smelly tent! Yep, that was one and done for me!

​Do you wish to have a stronger, deeper connection with your pet? Is your pet acting unusual or is a new pet having trouble getting settled into your home and daily routine? Ask Angel Ariel for help in understanding their needs.

What else can Angel Ariel do for you? Well, we hear a lot these days about learning to manifest abundance for ourselves, our loved ones, and the earth itself. Angel Ariel will assist and guide you with your own manifestations, as long as they’re positive, and for the highest good for yourself and others.

And as always, don’t forget to thank Archangel Ariel, with a grateful heart, as we do all our Divine Best Friends when they help us. They bring so much love, comfort, and guidance, improving any situation we find ourselves in. We are so blessed to have them in our lives!

​Also, I Just Flew to Mexico, But My Suitcase Flew to India!

Hello Friends!

​Thank you to all who have written to me, asking if my book, How To Chat With Archangels, will be released as an audiobook. Well, I’m excited to announce that on February 7th it will be available as an audiobook on Amazon! Yay!!

Now you can sit back, relax, and just listen to all the Angel wisdom, guidance, and love whenever you want! Happily surround yourself, anytime, with everything you’ve wanted to know about Archangels, whether you’re stuck in traffic, or waiting in line. What a great way to feel comforted, calm, and cared for, while instantly relieving stress.

And speaking of stress, I must share with you an anxiety-ridden experience I had two weeks ago, that was ultimately resolved by the Angels in their ever-loving way.

Jill and I were excited about our mother/daughter trip—we try to have these getaways once a year. This time we were going to spend five days at a beautiful beachfront resort in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.

The flight from Phoenix to Puerto Vallarta was smooth and relaxing and we were smiling as we made our way to the luggage carousel to claim our bags. There was Jill’s blue suitcase waiting for her, but where was my cute little pink bag? After several minutes, and with all the other bags except a large, black one claimed, it was clear that my bag was nowhere to be found.

It took some time, but finally a gentleman who worked in the baggage claim department helped us figure out what happened. He wheeled over the lone black suitcase. Somehow, my name had been fastened to the claim ticket for that bag, and that bag was supposed to be in route to Delhi India! So, if that bag was now mistakenly in Puerto Vallarta, we could only assume that my cute little pink bag, delicate and not made for world travel, was now on a very long journey from Phoenix to Chicago, and finally to India! What?!

The gentleman truly felt bad about this huge mix-up. He apologized and started a paper trail with an official inquiry, but we all knew I wouldn’t be seeing my suitcase any time soon. Luckily, I had my carry-on with me which held my toiletries and several pairs of pants for daytime and evening, along with two pairs of socks, two pairs of underwear, and a tee-shirt. But all I could think of was everything I would have to do without. I’m sure when the owner of the black suitcase found it missing in Delhi, he was unhappily scratching his head, too.
​
Although feeling low about this crazy turn of events and uttering a few choice words as we shook our heads, Jill and I were determined to not let it spoil our vacation. The resort was gorgeous, the food was delicious, and we let the stress of the day melt away.

The next morning a taxi took us to a store called Liverpool, that had been recommended to replace some of my lost items. Doubtful that I would find anything I liked, I was soon having fun trying on cute tops in the dressing room.
​
After paying for them (and keeping the receipts to submit to American Airlines when I got home) we went to another department and found two pairs of sandals for me, as well as a bathing suit and cover-up, underwear, socks, and a suitcase. I felt relieved that I now had what I needed to enjoy the rest of our vacation.

​But I secretly grieved for all the things I doubted I’d ever see again. One of those things was an evening bag, adorned with crystals, that my hubby had bought for me in Brazil while on a business trip over twenty years ago.

So, of course, I turned to the Archangels, our Divine Best Friends and asked for their help. First, I called upon Angel Chamuel, who can see everything and anything, and helps humans find whatever we’ve lost. I asked him to please locate my bag, keep my possessions safe, and send it all back home to me as quickly as heaven would allow.

Then I asked Angel Michael and Angel Raphael, who team up to make our travels go as smoothly as possible, to help Angel Chamuel bring my bag back into my possession. I thanked them all, feeling deepest gratitude filling my heart.

My cute little pink bag was “somehow miraculously” located in London two days later, after having gone to Delhi, India. It was back home, in my possession, within a week! American Airlines really rose to the occasion and quickly reimbursed me for the things I bought at Liverpool.
​
If only my little bag could talk—what an adventure it must have had. It arrived home filthy, covered with scrapes and scars. But although it looked terrible, it was still locked. I unlocked it, with my heart in my mouth, only to find everything still neatly in place, untouched! Tears of gratitude sprang to my eyes as I held the little beaded evening bag in my hands, the crystals twinkling in the light.

​Sounds like a miracle, doesn’t it? What were the chances I’d ever see that bag again? Normally, they would have been nil. But, when we call upon the Archangels, miracles do happen!

Angel Love and Light,

​Hello Friends! Happy New Year!

I was thrilled to be a guest, recently, on the “Ask Julie Ryan” show. Julie is such a fascinating lady. She’s a psychic and a medical intuitive who can sense illnesses and perform energy healings for people. She communicates with spirits and is also an author and an inventor.

Her podcasts on YouTube are some of the most interesting I’ve ever watched; her genuinely warm interview style is a delight. She put me at ease immediately, making this one of the most fun interviews I’ve ever done.

Julie had lots of questions about the Angels and about my book, How To Chat With Archangels. I was only too happy to answer them, of course. Please click this link to watch:

Over the Holidays, our family was blessed to all be together this year. Our son, David, and his girlfriend, Sarah, visited from Charlotte, North Carolina, joining Howard, me, and our daughter, Jill, in Phoenix. Since Sarah had never been to Arizona before, there was lots of sightseeing to do.
​
Of course, Sedona was a must-see for Sarah, and the rest of us were happy for the opportunity to visit that magical, red-rocked area again.

​After savoring the sights such as Bell Rock, and the Chapel of the Holy Cross, we stopped for lunch and a leisurely walk through the awesome art galleries at the historic shopping area called Tlaquepaque Village.

​Because each store and gallery enchanted us with unique feasts for our eyes, we spent a couple of hours enjoying the experience of wandering in and out of the shops. Upon entering one shop, however, the shopkeeper, a lovely lady named Laverne, came right up to me.

“Are you…did I just see…did you just do an internet interview about Angels on the Julie Ryan show?” she stammered.

“Yes, I did,” I said, smiling.

“I thought that was you! I thought I recognized you. I just watched that interview this morning! I loved it. I’m sorry if I was staring.”

“That’s okay, this is the first time I’ve ever been recognized in public,” I laughed.

“Well, I’ve got to tell you. For a couple of months, I’ve been feeling like I need to have a deeper connection with the Angels. That’s why I was excited to watch your interview this morning. And on my way to work, I asked the Angels for a sign that they are open to me. And now, talk about a sign…you, of all people, the Angel lady, just walked into my store! I can’t believe it!”
​
“Aww, Laverne, isn’t it awesome the way the Angels work?” I said, giving her a hug.

As I’ve said many times, the Angels adore us so much, and they love to send us signs. Sometimes those signs are as big and obvious as this one, sent to Laverne as proof that they want a deeper connection with her.

During the Holidays, or any time of year, it’s so comforting to receive loving signs and messages like this from our Divine Best Friends! Just ask and you shall receive! Joy to the World!

Angel Love and Light,

Hello Friends!
​
As you know, Thanksgiving is just a few days away, heralding in the season of peace, joy, giving, and gratitude.

​Photo by Claudio Schwarz on Unsplash

​But because it’s been a time of deep emotional highs and lows for many people over the last couple of months, some folks may find it hard to work themselves into a state of appreciation. That’s because it takes energy and positive emotion to achieve the high vibrational state of gratitude.

As Nikola Tesla said, “If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration.”

​It’s interesting to ponder how everything really is made up of those aspects, including our cars, furniture, and houses, as well as our bodies. It’s all energy. So, our thoughts, feelings, and emotions are simply different frequencies. Dr. David R. Hawkins, a researcher and the author of Power vs. Force, devised an emotional frequency scale that rates basic human emotions within a range of 1 to 1,000. Any rating below 200 is considered a low, destructive frequency to the individual and to society. For instance, feelings of shame are rated 20, guilt is 30, apathy is 50, fear is 100, anger is 150, and pride is 175.

Conversely, higher frequencies are considered to be expansive and positive for the individual as well as society. Willingness is 310, acceptance is 350, reason is 400, love is 500, joy is 540, peace is 600, and enlightenment is considered to be 700 and above.

I’ve read several articles, recently, stating that true enlightenment is reached when we experience feelings of gratitude and authenticity. Nice to know that when we are truly appreciative and are also brave enough to be our true selves, we’re raising our vibration to the highest frequency levels!
​
And what are the benefits of hanging out, so to speak, at such high frequencies? Well, research has shown that it boosts our immune system, has healing effects on us spiritually, physically, and emotionally, reduces stress and depression, and increases our feelings of well-being. It also deepens our sense of contentment, fulfillment, and true joy, leading to closer relationships with loved ones and friends, as well as providing us with more empathy and a better understanding of ourselves and others.

​That sounds amazing. But how do we raise our vibrational frequencies? Well, the usual advice is exercise, meditate, keep a gratitude journal, surround yourself with nature, be around positive people, volunteer to help others, and make time to play. Those all sound like good suggestions. But they don’t include the most important one of all—ask an Angel to help you!

​Yes, there is an Angel for that…her name is Angel Ooniemme (pronounced Oon-ee-em)! Angel Ooniemme is the Angel of gratitude. As I explain in my book, How To Chat With Archangels, Angels were created by God to help humans.

So, when you can’t seem to muster the energy or attitude to put yourself in these higher frequencies, simply ask her assistance. She will gently guide you to focus on all the things in your life to be grateful for. They may be little things…you found a great parking spot at the store, your perfume bottle looks empty, but has still spritzed you with your favorite fragrance for over a week, the pain in your shoulder has eased, and you are healthy enough to be mobile and strong enough to complete your daily tasks. Maybe those aren’t such little things, after all.

Angel Ooniemme may whisper in your ear to remind you of all the things you’ve gone through that placed you in a better position presently. She may help you realize how much better your life is, now. It may suddenly become clearer to you just how much your favorite music elevates your mood, how much you laugh and enjoy being with certain people, and the way the breeze blowing those autumn leaves fills you with warm memories of past joy-filled days.

That’s what Angel Ooniemme does best—she helps raise our awareness about the true blessings that are all around us. And when we can recognize those with a fresh perspective, we can actually receive all those Divine gifts meant for us.

Hello Friends!
​
Speaking of traveling, Howard and I recently flew across the country to North Carolina to visit our son, David, for his birthday. We enjoyed ten awesome days. Travel can be so fun, exciting, and interesting. Getting out of our normal routines and seeing different things is often a thrill.

​However, there is plenty of opportunity for things to go wrong. Engine failure in your car, or tire trouble can pop up suddenly on a road trip. Flying instead? Airlines can suddenly delay your flight, or even cancel it at the last minute due to mechanical issues or a fast-moving snowstorm. Once you reach your destination, a pickpocket can steal your wallet and/or passport, causing incredible frustrations and inconvenience. Worse yet, you can get sick or injured, and have to deal with the symptoms and uncertainty while far from home.

Howard and I had experienced some of those unfortunate issues while traveling in the U.S. and around the world. But then I began to communicate with Archangels in 2011, which was an awesome gamechanger in every way for my life, let alone while traveling. In my book, How To Chat With Archangels, I describe a particular travel incident in detail.

We were enjoying several days in Rome, Italy, seeing all the iconic sights ahead of a Mediterranean cruise in 2016.

​One day, as we walked along a crowded street in search of some refreshing gelato, I was glared at and cursed with the “evil eye” by a beggar woman who was angry because I didn’t toss a coin into her money cup. I turned away, and the next thing I knew, I began falling down, onto the unyielding, gray basalt street tiles.

Thank heavens I had the presence of mind to quickly cry out to Angel Michael, asking for his help as I fell. Suddenly, it felt like I was falling at a much slower velocity, and when I hit the ground, I was able to jump up immediately, unharmed but for a few scrapes.

Howard was shocked that I could get on my feet so quickly. He had rushed over to help when he heard me loudly hit the ground. And he was incredulous because he said it looked like I had been falling in slow motion!
​
I knew it was Angel Michael who had slowed my fall and cushioned my body from what could have been a devastating injury. After all, I was in my 60s and a broken hip would certainly have caused misery and ruined our vacation. Instead, we were able to happily continue down the street to enjoy the most delicious gelato we’d ever tasted.

​As you can imagine, I always ask Angel Michael to protect me and my family whenever we travel, no matter how short the distance. God created the Archangels to help humans, and they take their jobs very seriously. They are just waiting for us to ask for their assistance.

Each Archangel specializes in a specific area or areas to help us. For example, Archangel Raphael is the healing Angel. When you ask him to “team up” with Archangel Michael, the Angel of protection, you acquire a loving, yet powerful duo dedicated to keeping things running smoothly and in the best condition possible for you. Your airlines, taxis, shuttles, cruise ships, and hotel reservations will be waiting for you, according to plan. Your luggage will arrive without issues. You will be protected from illness and injury. You can relax and enjoy all aspects of your vacation.

Talk about the best kind of insurance there is! And it’s free! You simply have to ask, and then thank your Divine Best Friends with true gratitude in your heart.
Like that old commercial said, “Don’t leave home without them!”

Angel Love and Light,

Hello Friends!

I’ve been thinking a lot about friendship. That’s because I finally got to meet, in person, a dear friend of mine named Melissa. She and I have been close for five years, having met by happenstance—or more likely by Divine providence—when we were both taking a popular online Mediumship class of over 1000 students, given through Zoom format, by Suzanne Giesemann.

Over the years, Melissa and I have shared many Zoom calls, phone calls, e-mails, and text messages, but since we live about 1500 miles apart, we’ve never had the opportunity to meet in person.
​
That all changed in late August when Melissa attended a conference at a resort in Phoenix. Howard and I drove down to Phoenix and stayed one night at that resort after the conference ended, so Melissa and I could spend some time together. It was such a heartwarming and unforgettable experience for us both.

Psychology Today says, “Research indicates that close friendships are associated with greater happiness, self-esteem, and sense of purpose. Those bonds are even associated with physical outcomes, such as lower blood pressure and a longer lifespan.”

We humans are social creatures, so that doesn’t surprise me at all. And, luckily for us, there is an Archangel whose main role and expertise is in helping humans with friendships and other relationships. His name is Angel Raguel. I haven’t spoken or written much about him, even in my book, How To Chat With Archangels, and it’s high time I do so.

Archangel Raguel’s name, from Hebrew, means “Friend of God.” He is mentioned in the Book of Enoch, and some consider him to be one of the seven principal Archangels. His specialties include orderliness, fairness, and harmony. He even oversees and manages relationships between Angels and humans!

Angel Raguel is just waiting for you to ask for his help in bringing forgiveness, peace, deeper comprehension, and calm between you and your friends, family members, romantic partners, and business partners. He can help heal misunderstandings and long-running feuds, bringing in balance, unity, agreement, and honesty, and lessening tensions and hurt feelings.

Sometimes he will simply heal the relationship outright and immediately. But other times he’ll send you intuitive guidance through gut feelings, thoughts, dreams, or visions so you can take the steps necessary to repair the relationship.

Angel Raguel is happy to help you mend and heal your relationship with yourself, too, if needed. He can offer loving understanding and forgiveness for things in your past that you might be angry or ashamed of or bitter about, that are having a negative impact on your daily existence.

And finally, Angel Raguel can help you attract the kind of friendships you are looking for and deepen the ones you have. Maybe you have mostly social friends that are fun to be with, but you yearn to meet a few people that you can really be yourself with, have honest conversations with, and who truly understand and care about you.

 I call these my “heart-space” friends—those rare few in my inner circle that I can truly trust with all my heart, like Melissa. Those are the people who will be there for me no matter what.

Did I ask Angel Raguel to help me find these special friends? You bet I did. Some appeared fairly quickly, while others came into my life gradually over the years.

I even asked Angel Raguel, years ago, to help deepen my relationship with my sister—a relationship that had been tense for a long time. I’m so grateful to be able to say that my sister and I now have the kind of relationship I’ve always hoped for. With Angel Raguel’s help and guidance, we were able to talk honestly and with a calm understanding that healed our relationship and brought peace, love, and true appreciation for each other.

As humans, we are all so blessed to have Archangel Raguel and all the other Archangels, our Divine Best Friends, ready and willing to help us in all areas of our lives!

Angel Love and Light,

Hello Friends!

I hope your summer has been glorious! Mine certainly has been. June was filled with the planning and excitement of our trip to Utah, so that Howard and I could renew our wedding vows for our 50th wedding anniversary!
​
Then in early July we boarded a lovely cruise ship for two weeks, exploring the rugged beauty of Alaska. We’d been there before, but every time is a new adventure. When we got to Sitka, a port we had never been to before, we fell in love with it. And we didn’t let the cool, rainy weather stop us from our explorations.

However, during the second week of our cruise, I began to feel sick. Never a good thing, but worse when you’re on vacation!

You know that feeling…your head starts to feel achy and as heavy as a plank of wood on your neck. Then your throat gets dry and scratchy and you’re unable to sleep because every time you swallow, razorblades slide down your throat. Of course, the heaviness in the chest then begins and an annoying barking cough follows. If you’re lucky that’s already enough to contend with.

I wasn’t so lucky. Fever began along with digestive issues that I will spare you from reading about. To put it mildly, I was a mess. By the time we flew back to Arizona and drove up the mountain to our home, I was in even worse shape. I was now dizzy, weak, exhausted, and shaky.

We were hoping that once I was home and in my own bed, I would recover quickly. Nope! Whatever that flu-like thing was, it wasn’t through with me yet. All in all, that illness lasted an entire month! I slowly improved but lost nearly ten pounds because there were so few food options I could tolerate.

I am happy to report that, as I write this, I have now healed completely. So, as my title above begs the question, is there anything good about having the flu?

There actually was good that came from my forced rest and recuperation. And only part of that was because I am of retirement age, so I didn’t have to worry about rushing back to work too soon, thank heaven! (One of the advantages of being older.)

The good was I was forced to slow down and spend time doing very little besides being in my own head. Reading, writing, surfing the Internet, even listening to low and slow music was intolerable.

So, I had no choice but to ride out my worst symptoms, contemplate whatever would come into my mind, pray, and tell God and the Angels what I was thinking and feeling. I’d drift off to sleep for a while, then wake up and the cycle would repeat.

Twice I had nightmares that I was in a dark place that I frantically needed to escape. I felt rough hands grab my shoulders! So disturbing! Then, still in the dream, I cried out to God and the Angels to protect me. Immediately those loathsome hands flew off of me and I woke up in a sweat, gasping for breath.

I knew that God and the Angels had saved me from what felt like demonic forces. That’s the only way I can describe it. I thanked them with a grateful heart, and asked Archangel Michael, the protector and warrior Angel, to please surround me with his Divine protection. Then I asked the Angel of healing, Archangel Raphael, to expedite my healing with his light of green energy. As soon as I asked, I began to feel a warm, tingly feeling in and around my lungs making them feel lighter. My coughing calmed down. I could rest without any discomfort for a while.

Yes, I eventually got annoyed with how long my recovery was taking. I let my Divine Best Friends know I wasn’t happy with the current healing timeline. I had experienced that kind of impatience before, some years ago, when I was slowly recovering from a back injury. That story is highlighted in Chapter 9 of my book, How To Chat With Archangels.

But I knew God and the Angels were there with me, always by my side, especially when my symptoms would flair up. And I knew I would recover, with a new appreciation for all the little things I’m able to do when I’m healthy and think nothing of it.

Getting sick is not something I would wish on anyone, of course. But it happens. Sometimes it’s just the flu. Other times it can be much more serious. But whatever the illness is, if you can use that sick time to reach out and connect, re-connect, or strengthen your connection to your Divine Best Friends, you will have turned the misery of illness into a special spiritual opportunity that will serve you in amazing ways!

Angel Love and Light,
