Archangels – divine messengers
Cosmic phenomena unfold in accordance with the spiritual life of entities above the human being, who belong to hierarchies with missions related to the spiritual evolution of humanity.
In Christian esotericism, these entities are called angels, a term that designates spiritual beings in the worlds between God and man.
The word “angel” comes from the Greek “angelos“, which means messenger.
We find angels in Christian, Jewish and Islamic writings, but also in ancient Assyrian, Mesopotamian and Buddhist traditions.
<>Angels, as subtle beings in the space between man and his Creator, regardless of their place in the celestial hierarchy, reflect Divine perfection. They are beings of light, disembodied, created from the beginning. Their pure energy reflects unconditional love as the fundamental Law of Divinity.
The celestial order is rigorously established and created so that the Divine Law may come to life in its fullness.
Depending on their place on the ladder, each category of angels is created to carry out a certain type of mission.
The angels are organized hierarchically in Angelic Choirs.
The closest to the terrestrial plane is the Choir of Angels, Archangels and Primates.
Archangels are entities of light whose first duty is to do God’s will on Earth.
They thus watch over the fulfillment of the spiritual destiny, of the divine purpose of our existence.
Archangels make the connection between man and the Divine, supervise guardian angels and all other categories of angels in our proximity.
In Christian esotericism there are several archangels who stand before the Throne of God.
The most popular are: Michael, Gabriel, Raphael, Uriel, Jophiel, Samuel and Zadkiel.
<>In addition to these, the archangel Metatron
(whose name means “The One of God“) is also known.
Metatron, in Greek, means “next to or next to the throne.”
Archangel Metatron introduces others before the face of God.
It was through this high consciousness that the Lord spoke to Moses.
According to apocryphal texts, the prophet Enoch, who “walked with God” (Genesis), retaining his purity from God throughout his earthly life, was taken and taken to the 7th Heaven, and invested by Divine Grace as the archangel Metatron.
Thus, Metatron is one of the supreme princes of angels and the scribe of God.
He is also called the Angel of Presence, because he helps us understand what is happening now in the reality of the earth plane.
The energy of Archangel Metatron is extremely powerful and concentrated, like a laser beam, with which we can work to overcome obstacles in life and move forward.

Archangel Jophiel:
his name means “The Beauty of God”, or the Contemplation of God.
Jophiel is the patron saint of the arts, and is mentioned in the Bible as the archangel who led Adam and Eve out of the Garden of Eden.
He also remains the last guardian of the Tree of Life.
The fiery sword with which Jophiel is depicted suggests to us the full spectrum of aspects that make up his mission.
He is an archangel of enlightenment, who brings into our consciousness the Power of Divine Light.
It transforms human feelings into spiritual aspiration and transforms ignorance, pride, and limitations of any kind into light, love, truth, and wisdom.
It helps us to accumulate information from any field, to study, to learn, to evolve in the field of knowledge – both material and spiritual.
As a patron saint of the arts and beauty, Jophiel helps us physically and metaphysically to think positively, to appreciate beauty.
It helps us create, manifest, and attract more beauty into our lives.

This name also means power, honor and just judgment.
A fighter for justice, Michael is at the head of the heavenly armies and is considered as the One who defends the heavenly gates against darkness.
Legend has it that cherubs were formed from Michael’s tears, poured out over the sins of believers.

He is one of the most important angels in the Judeo-Christian tradition.

In Christianity, Gabriel is also considered the guardian angel of Jesus, during His incarnation on earth.
He is the angel who appeared to Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane to support Him in the terrible moment of anticipating the coming tribulation.
Gabriel also overturned the stone covering Jesus’ tomb, and spoke to the myrrh-bearing women.
In the iconographic representation, Gabriel is depicted with a white lily in his hand, signifying purity, innocence and Divine love, but also the feminine aspect of heavenly hierarchies.
Almost always, Gabriel is by Michael’s side. We thus have the appearance of the masculine and feminine aspects, Yin and Yang, of the heavenly hierarchies.
