How to communicate with a guardian angel
Angels are spiritual entities that do not have bodies. In rare cases, they can take human form and influence the material world, but by their nature they are pure spirits.
That is why the main way of communication with them - popping up in our minds images, thoughts and feelings, which we can accept or reject. Such communication is not explicit, but from time to time thoughts come to your mind of which you are not the author.
Only in rare cases mentioned in the Bible and other religious writings do angels take a physical form and communicate through words. However, this is not the rule, but rather the exception to it, so we should not expect a guardian angel to appear out of nowhere.
About the sources of knowledge
There is a famous Church anecdote. One day the prior of the temple comes to accept the work of an icon painter. And suddenly he sees that the angel is depicted in these, you know, very real shoes. The abbot was outraged and asked: "Where did you see the angel in boots?" And the man answers him: "I wonder! And where have you seen an angel without shoes?"
The point of this parable is obvious. The vast majority of people in their lives have not seen angels and therefore get information not from their own experience or the experience of those around them. In Orthodoxy there are many sources of knowledge and many approaches to the question of their reliability and authority.
Certainly the basis of Christian knowledge is the Holy Scriptures or the Bible. There is also the experience of church life, the experience of communion with God, something of which was somehow reflected in many texts of varying degrees of authority, including not only doctrinal, liturgical, historical, but even folklore. If we approach formally, it is possible to speak about angels on the basis of these sources for an infinite time and the picture will be drawn a vast, not excluded that there will be contradictions in it.
In Christianity there is a certain system of construction and formation of doctrine, thanks to which it becomes possible to determine the main and immutable, to point out the important authoritative additions and to give to the Christians the secondary moments that do not contradict the main thing. This principle was formulated as early as the 4th century by St Augustine: There is unity in the essentials, variety in the secondary and love in everything.
Sacred Scripture (the Bible) is the book of the church. It was written by different people over the course of a millennium and a half, but it was collected into one book and proclaimed as a written testimony to the divine revelation by the Christian church during the first four centuries of its existence. By the fifth century the Bible, as a collection of the most important and authoritative books for Christians, had the form in which it still exists today; its composition was recognized as complete and unchanged. All of this is important to us for this reason. There are no books "in themselves," but books read and understood and interpreted in their own way. Since it was the Christian church of the early centuries that compiled and established the Bible for its own use, Christians rightly assert to themselves an undivided right in the proper understanding and interpretation of the Bible. This does not mean that Christians have a secret doctrine with interpretations; their teachings have always been open and available not only for study but also for debate.
In practice, the system of orthodox doctrine is structured roughly as follows. First of all, there must be a clear testimony of Scripture taken in the general context of the Orthodox understanding of the Bible. On some issues the church councils have spoken, and the more representative the council, the more authoritative and immutable its opinion. Their authority stems from a simple principle. In these assemblies it was possible to formulate those foundations of doctrine which, in the words of one of the ancient church writers, were recognized by all Christians, at all times and everywhere, wherever there are Christians.
There is the written heritage of the holy fathers, men celebrated by the church for their life and work. The authority of these texts is based on the ascetic religious and moral life of these Christians, on their deeply authentic experience of communion with God, on their experience of studying and living out the commandments that are given to us by Christ God in the Holy Scriptures. A caveat must be made here, though. The most authoritative are those opinions of the holy fathers that agree with each other. That is, those matters in which most of the saints have spoken in a similar way are recognized as authoritative, even if the matter has not been addressed in scripture or at church councils.
It is only on the basis of the above that it is possible to speak of angels. Moreover, it can be argued that the teaching of the Orthodox Church about angels is quite modest. The information provided by Scripture is scattered and disjointed. This is understandable. The central theme of the Bible is the relationship between man and God. No one and nothing can eclipse that theme. The detailed accounts of the beings that inhabit the space between God and man are absent from the Bible. Man and God communicate directly. Angels appear on some special occasions and at special moments, and it is only here that some information about them is revealed. The authoritative church councils did not deal with the subject of angels. The holy fathers wrote about angels, as a rule, in the same context as the Bible, that is, rather rarely, piecemeal; and it was almost always an additional topic of their narrative.
So what can be said reliably about angels, based on the major sources of church knowledge?
How to call upon a guardian angel
Be aware of your desire to communicate with your own guardian spirit. Open mind and heart, allow yourself to develop this relationship.
In a quiet and peaceful environment, relax and close your eyes and imagine your guardian angel. Most likely, it will take you some time to learn to see and hear him, but if you practice regularly, the result will not be long in coming.
The guardian spirit is invisibly present in everyone's life, helping him to follow the right path, but if you are wondering on which shoulder the guardian angel sits, it is traditionally believed that he dwells on the right shoulder.
However, according to theologians, this energy essence surrounds our thin physical shell, not concentrating on one particular place.
Fire Signs
Fire signs love to be in the thick of things and in the spotlight. Praise and approval are very important and necessary for them. For their part, these signs are always open to communication, sincerely share the warmth of their hearts and know how to be the soul of the company. What are the differences between the angels of the zodiac signs of the fire element?
Aries
Representatives of this zodiac sign have two spirits fighting for their interests:
- The angel of sincerity is Baccariel;
- the demon of hatred and cowardice.
Aries is characterized by openness and warmth towards people, this is taken care of by the angel of light. They hate hypocrisy and lies. Angel Bacarius brings good luck to Aries, protects their children, assists and assists them in everyday matters, gives them optimism and confidence in their abilities.
Aries owe their outbursts of rage and hatred to their demon, which constantly provokes them and does not give them peace. The person behaves impudently, is rude and does not admit his mistakes. Aries can be very impulsive: first do, then think.
But sometimes they are controlled by the demon of cowardice, and Aries is silent where it is necessary to express an opinion. After that, they are tormented by their conscience, but nothing can be corrected. In addition to these demons, Aries has many other patron demons. But these two are the main ones.
Leo
This fiery sign is ruled by:
- the demon of vanity Shelhabiron;
- The angel of the heart Aquarius.
Everyone knows the habits of Lions, their arrogance and unapproachability. This is the influence of Shelhabiron: he defeated and indoctrinated his ward with thoughts of his own greatness and the inferiority of others.
Lions become unbearable, they categorically do not tolerate criticism and other people's opinions. In a burst of narcissism, Leo displays dictatorial ambition, authoritarianism and intolerance.
When Leo is under the influence of the angel of cordiality, he is transformed into a sweet generous person, ready to come to the rescue of those who suffer. Aquarius inspires his ward to spiritual growth and self-improvement. Yesterday's arrogant prideful man is unrecognizable: he radiates light and love, kindness and cordiality.
Sagittarius
This sign is ruled by:
- The angel of cheerfulness Adnachiel;
- Naashiron, the demon of arrogance.
This sign always has spiritual ideals in front of him that he strives for. He is a true revolutionary and fighter for justice. The angel Adnachiel helps his ward in everything, opens up opportunities for him and promotes full freedom.
Also, the patron angel helps Sagittarians to arrange a good personal life and find success in professional activities.
The Demon of Arrogance inspires his charges that they are exceptional, irreplaceable and unique. This is no longer just a person, but the center of the world. Under its influence, Sagittarians stop responding to criticism, look down on everyone, and stop considering their opponents as people.
Criticizing those around them, Sagittarians indulge their weaknesses and lusts in everything.
Phone Calls.
If you suddenly call the person whose support you particularly need at this time, you can not doubt: this is the work of an angel who either reminded him of you in your time of need, or gave him the clarity and wisdom of mind, so he can give you valuable advice.
Too many coincidences are usually indicative of angelic intervention. Even your loved ones in heaven can help you by setting up chance encounters, tossing up new opportunities, guiding you to new friends, mentors and life companions.
What shoulder does an angel sit on: beliefs, prayers, clergy comments
Guardian Angel accompanies a person throughout life. He is given through the sacrament of baptism. And after baptism begins a bitter struggle for the human soul.
Who fights with whom? An unclean spirit, or demon. He is not sleeping, trying to capture the human soul. The angel protects the soul. So a battle breaks out.
On which shoulder sits the angel, and on which shoulder - the demon? And how do they fight each other? Let's find out.
Strange electrical phenomena.
Angels and departed loved ones can communicate with us through unusual electrical phenomena. There are many ways: flashing lights, TV, radio, and lights turning on and off. Another sure sign is when appliances, phones, devices or children's toys suddenly, out of the blue, make sounds, although no one has touched them.
It also happens that angels call you from an unfamiliar number, and when you answer, you hear only static in the receiver. Most often, such electrical phenomena are signs that angels or your loved ones are trying to get your attention.
Messages in the sky.
Angels often leave messages in the sky. These can be rainbows and sun glares. If you think of angels and suddenly notice a rainbow, it's probably an angel trying to convince you of his presence. It's especially impressive when it's not raining.
Another sign is sun glare. Depending on the light, these messages are usually sent by the angel whose help you need most at the moment. If you see sunshine everywhere, it could be a message from the archangel Raphael encouraging you with his presence. Have you seen such signs?

Why shoulders specifically.
Angel and demon on the shoulders symbolize the struggle between good and evil. But why were the shoulders chosen as their dwelling place? Which shoulder does the angel reside on?
If anything, not on the shoulder, but behind the shoulder. It is believed that a man walks, followed by a guardian angel and an unclean spirit. The angel on the right and the demon on the left.
What does this have to do with? It's because the right side is sacred. We baptize with the right hand, we hang icons at home in the right corner (to the East). Even the word "right" came from the word "right". And we call a person who believes and lives according to God's commandments a righteous person. Since everything starts with the right hand, they also put the angel there. Good is on the right side supposedly.
Now let's talk about the left side. The heart seems to be located on the left. Why shouldn't an angel walk on it? To be closer to the heart?
The questions are rhetorical, for all bad things are connected with the left side. If a person has a bad day, they say they got up with their left foot. People who are left-handed are treated with suspicion, at least it used to be that way. Hackwork and dishonest income is called "left-handed" money.
It is clear that left-handedness is bad. The devil belongs behind the left shoulder, he is bad.
The devil is destruction for us.
Why destruction? Because his main goal is to drag the human soul into hell. And he works very hard, trying to do it.
How does he act unclean? By tempting the person, offering him to commit a sin. Of course, the word "offering" here should not be seen in the sense that he says. No, it is simply a clever nudge.
For example, a person knows that fornication is a terrible sin. This is where the unclean spirit comes into play. He begins to put all kinds of fantasies in his thoughts. The body reacts to these fantasies. As a result, a person commits a sin. Devil only needs this. He exults and rejoices, while the angel stands aside and weeps bitterly.
On which side of the shoulder sits the angel, and which side does the demon occupy? According to the legends we were told in our childhood, the angel occupies the whole right shoulder. The unclean one, respectively, occupies the left shoulder.
