Angels are evolved expressions of devic energy that chose not to incarnate into physical form. Their spiritual evolution is earned through assisting human souls that are physically incarnating.

Interaction may come under the guise of acting as spirit guides, lending healing energy to a wide range of endeavors, or offering wise counsel in-between lives to souls still locked in the incarnational cycle. Similar to their earlier role as devic beings, angels assist humanity through means of support, inspiration, and healing. In return, angels evolve on their own through this selfless service to others.

Angels are not subject to the dualities of physical existence and are therefore unaffected by the negative poles of overleaves or false personality. Angels emit a purity of energy that’s grounded by the forces of the earth and the immutable presence of the Tao.

Over time, angels progress through the other planes of existence, combining larger collectives of angelic souls into groups similar to entities, cadres, and so on.

Is There a Difference Between Angels & Archangels?

An archangel is a recombined entity of other angels from the same soul group, roughly consisting of around a thousand angelic souls.

Although angels don’t incarnate into the physical, they do evolve through a grand cycle like human souls do. Because they do not incarnate, they are loosely assigned to groups of incarnate souls — usually, sparks they were familiar with as devic beings before the choice was made to become human or angelic. In short, angels evolve as these other souls evolve. It’s a mutually collaborative relationship. Angels are so inextricably connected to these groups that repercussions of catastrophic events occurring to assigned humans are felt throughout the angelic kingdom.

What Are the Specialties of Popular Archangels?

Like all entities (or soul groups), each archangel has certain abilities that become more pronounced as their journey continues. As a whole, however, the main objective of an archangel entity is to gather the experience and wisdom from the individual angels that comprise their larger collective and use it to teach.

The teaching of an archangel is not only available to mankind, but it serves to instruct and guide those angels still working in the trenches, so to speak, of humanity. Much of the instruction involves the dispersion of healing energy. This is an angel’s stock and trade. Angels are better equipped to expertly wield this force more than any other soul.

Popular archangels, such as Michael and Gabriel, do exist but their original entity of angelic beings has since progressed into the upper planes of existence. The archangels bearing their names today are surrogates, if you will, that act on their behalf. There exists a lineage of archangel energy that continues the work left behind by their predecessors. This should not suggest that these surrogates are impostors. An angel that claims to be a popular archangel is genuinely tuning into the vibrations of the original soul group, and can legitimately channel from that resonance. The connection, then, is still available despite the departure from the astral of the original archangel. New archangels, now in alignment with the old, can act as ambassadors for these older groups, even if, in this case, the real archangel Michael, now resides on the Messianic plane.

Why Are Angels Portrayed in Art with Wings, Halos, and Harps?

The very nature of art speaks to the creative imagination of the artist. Angels have been depicted in a wide variety of guises and apparel that more times than not demonstrated the imaginative abilities of the artist rather than actual realism. Much of the angelic art from the past also reflected stories from mythology about angels, copiously extracted from religious scripture and literature.

That angels have wings, mimics the devic nature of these beings and the collective impressions of millions of earthbound souls that have envisioned angels with wings for much of human history. Therefore, as part of the mass vision, some angels do have wings when interacting with humans. Angels are spiritual beings, however, and can project themselves in any manner they choose. Their preferred appearance is whatever is most comfortable to the human soul they are presently serving.

What Do Angels Do?

If we were to provide a job description, the entire point of an angel’s existence is to serve humanity. At some juncture during devic consciousness, the soul decides to end further evolvement and travel to another planetary system or choose to either accept human or angelic sentience.

Angels chose to serve. It is one of the noblest choices a spark from the Tao can undertake. On the other hand, choosing to serve in this matter is not without personal benefit, as service to others directly enriches the evolution of the soul providing the service. The contract ultimately benefits all.

What angels do beyond the basic job description is so extensively varied that it would be impossible to cite every individual nuance. As a whole, angels heal. They heal with their presence, their guidance, their inspiration, and above all, with the unwavering commitment of their love. Angels remind us, through their wise counsel and virtuous examples they set, that love is the prevailing force in the Universe, and that love is all that truly matters.
