As people become increasingly aware of angels, so the veil between our world and theirs becomes thinner. You do not need to be clairvoyant or psychic to experience the joy and delight of angelic contact. Some people who never actually see an angel are nevertheless aware of their angel’s presence.

Angelic ‘calling cards’ are personal to you. As you gain experience, you’ll learn to recognize your own signs. Here are some ways to which you may become aware of the presence of angels.

The atmosphere of the room may change—you may feel surrounded by a warm glow.

The air may seem to be tingling around you, or you may feel a rush of energy down your spine.

A beautiful aroma may suddenly fill your room. The rich smell of chocolate is a calling card of some guardian angels!

You may experience feelings of love or an overwhelming sense of deep peace or of protection.

Colored lights may appear from nowhere: shafts of brilliant light, or even spheres of color, may dance in front of you, especially when you are working with the healing angels.

During angelic meditation sessions you may experience a bright light in front of you, even when your eyes are closed.

You may feel the presence of wings brushing against you or enfolding you, or even angelic hands on your shoulders.

You may become aware of an increase in the number of coincidences that occur in your life. Or your problems may seem to solve themselves—sometimes in the most unexpected ways.

ANGELIC SIGNS
Sometimes angels manifest their presence in ways that anyone can see. You can ask for an angel to appear as proof of your angelic contact. Here are a few common angel signs.

Clouds
You may see angels in cloud formations, especially over sacred sites or when you have asked for angelic assistance. Sometimes you will notice clouds that resemble feathers.


Flowers
Many people find that their flowers last longer when placed on their angel altar. One student of angel lore found that her roses lasted for months, and, after an especially profound encounter, one of the roses changed color.

Feathers
White feathers may appear in the most unlikely places. When you have found a white feather, carry it round with you to keep your angel close. Once, when I was teaching an angel seminar, I mentioned that white feathers are a common angel sign. After the seminar a woman said that, despite what she had heard, she was not convinced of the existence of angels. At that very moment another student noticed a pure white feather stuck to the sleeve of her cardigan.

Words
Often, if you have asked for angelic help, you will hear the word ‘angel’ mentioned in a song on the radio or on television, or someone will say the word to you in an unlikely context.

Crystals
Angels may suddenly appear in your crystals. They frequently manifest in ‘angelic’ crystals, such as celestite, seraphinite or angelite, although a form can also appear in clear quartz crystal after you start reaching out to the angelic realm.
