The Archangel Gabriel

By Shanta Gabriel, Author of The Gabriel Messages

Archangel GabrielArchangel Gabriel has been featured more prominently throughout history than any other Archangel. Gabriel appeared to Mary to tell her about the birth of the Christ Child, came to Moses and opened the Red Sea for the Israelites’ safe passage from Egypt, and from his appearance to Mohammed a new religion was birthed. The theme for all these visitations seemed to be a message of hope.

Especially at Christmas, awareness of Archangel Gabriel is at a peak. The empowerment of Divine Love is more available and ideas of Peace, Harmony and Good Will are prevalent. These are all qualities of consciousness that Archangel Gabriel represents.

At this special time of year, I am delighted to offer the guided meditation I made for my Archangel Study Program that honors Archangel Gabriel. The meditation is designed to connect you to your second chakra and creates a personal experience of this amazing Angelic presence. Listen to a 4-minute sample:

The full 30-minute meditation is available here.

More about Archangel Gabriel

Archangel Gabriel is the master of communication, the inspiration behind the muse, the creative energy in the creative flow, and a most beloved partner. Some even see Gabriel as the Angel of Resurrection. With all of these attributes, joining in partnership with Archangel Gabriel allows balance to flow into our lives creating the spark of Divine Love in worldly partnerships, and a heaven-sent gift to open our hearts.

Archangel Gabriel is centered in the Second Chakra, which is our Creative Center. Calling on this powerful presence can definitely bring more Light into our beings. Since the second chakra is located below the navel at what is called the “Hara Center,” it is here at the center of our being that some cultures attribute the “breath of God.” When the breath flows through this center it can bring new balance and cooperation into all relationships.

When we join together in service of the Greater Good for all, it is a worthy goal for any partnership. This intention will have a ripple effect up-leveling all relationships on earth creating new loving respect for all beings. Assurance of a creative flow is part of the promise when one turns to a life of serving God. Honoring one another and seeing the powerful connection within all beings is the basis for respect and empowerment in personal relationships of all kinds.

The Dalai Lama speaks of this link with all beings when he says, “If you see yourself in others, then whom can you harm?”

The Second ChakraThe Second Chakra, or Svadisthana, is the center that is most well known as the Sexual Chakra, although it affects all creativity. It can reflect the desire to create children as well as bring our creative ideas into physical form. One of the strong qualities of consciousness in this center is “Honoring One Another” as this chakra resonates to our need for relationships on an emotional level. There is also an energetic connection to the physical body which affects all the organs in that region.

The primary strengths in this chakra are the ability to survive financially, the “fight or flight” instinct, and the resilience to recover from loss by re-establishing our life by making good decisions for ourselves. The primary fears are abandonment, betrayal and financial loss, among others. When we notice that we are making decisions from these fears, rather than from the faith that we are being cared for by a Greater Power, it is time for more trust knowing that we have powerful support to enable us to take care of ourselves. My favorite affirmation for this is:

“All my needs are met with grace and ease, and I am cared for eternally.”

All of our relationships, whether personal or business, have spiritual value as we learn to become more conscious through each interaction. We learn to form unions with people who support our development and release relationships that handicap our growth. In the second chakra, we can also balance our inner male and female, and come into harmony with ourselves.

When we focus on the qualities Archangel Gabriel brings into this center, we can choose to become more honoring and compassionate with ourselves. This will allow a healthy flow of energy through these very volatile areas, setting free the power of Creative Solutions in every area of our lives.

If we were only enlightened enough to have the greater perspective necessary to see our way through every challenge in the world, we know there would be a creative solution. This is what is available to us when healthy energy is flowing in the second chakra, and we are calling in the Light so that we may see more clearly. I believe it is an immutable law such as the Law of Attraction.

I have had many direct experiences with the amazing opportunity inherent in the Law of Creative Solutions that Archangel Gabriel brings into our lives. You might want to experiment with this idea. Do not expect that the solution will look anything like what you imagined. Praying for Creative Solutions will take it out of your intellectual process and turn it over to a Higher Power, saving you a lot of stress. You will feel the rightness of the decisions made from this creative place.

One of the last messages I received from Archangel Gabriel in November 1997 before my life moved into great upheaval was, “Just when did you THINK you would need Faith?” In other words, it is easy to maintain faith when things are going well, but in times when we are faced with tremendous challenge, that’s when we definitely need to have faith. It has been a powerful teaching for me and for all of us during this intense time of change on the planet. We allowed ourselves the assignment of anchoring Light as a Bridge from Heaven to Earth. Because we volunteered for this mission of service, we have a tremendous wellspring of Divine Assistance to call forth into our lives. It is up to us to call it in, and in that moment, we will be surrounded by Wings of Light.

My first visit from Archangel Gabriel

When I had a surprise visit from Archangel Gabriel in 1990, my first impression was one of Light — brilliant golden light. The next sensation was one of Love, and my heart melted. He began to teach me about the importance of alignment with my Source energy, and bringing Divine Light into my body to become a bridge from Heaven to Earth. Through his messages of Peace and Wisdom, there was a deepening sense of emotional balance in order to stay in that center of Love. Archangel Gabriel has been a beautiful connection to guidance that allows me to live on the Earth with Grace.

I believe that Archangel Gabriel offers that same teaching opportunity to all people who will take the time to connect to the Divine Light within and around them, and learn to listen within themselves to their inner guidance. During this Christmas season there are more opportunities to develop a deep connection to Divine Love, and find your center of Peace and Oneness.

Here is the message Archangel Gabriel gave me about the qualities of consciousness he represents:

Dear Ones,

The Creative Process is available to all who truly believe and open themselves to receive love from the deepest sources of their being. You are asking for Communion at this time. The second chakra is a focal point of Balance, a symphony of Joy and a gracious place to rest. Within this chakra, you have overcome eons of shame, torture, and imprisonment to come to this new place of Harmony.

Throughout all time the presence of Archangel Gabriel has spoken to those who are on earth to create change. Promoting change is a dangerous position, the challenges are great and the path is arduous, but through it all runs the vein of pure Golden Light to assist Transformation. When anyone seeks this fulfillment of Pure Light, you may go into areas you knew not in the past. Being ready for change is necessary, as entrenched belief systems begin to surface and changes run rampant in daily life. But through it all this Light creates great conviction and joy, if willingness is there. Was it not Gabriel who brought the Divine message to Mother Mary, created new life for Mohammed and parted the waters for Moses? These brilliant moments are also available to those who are willing to open their hearts and minds to this guidance, and let the challenges of their life path part like the waters of that ancient sea, allowing more light to pass through. It may not be of such dramatic proportion, and yet on an interior level, it feels profound. We are talking about Divine Union, the marriage of the self with the part of the Self most Sacred. United within creates Unity without.

Imagine a world living in Unity, in Harmony with the most sacred parts of Self. Imagine how the world would transform as people became so in Harmony with themselves that they lived in balance. As dear ones vibrate in balance, this energy permeates the atmosphere and planetary change is the result. At the second chakra is the desire for Union. Of course the highest level of Union is with the Divine, and the birth of the Creative Potential. This energy underlies the desire for sexual union and the hormonal urge for procreation. The energy in this center is a massive force for creative potential that can be used to serve God and one’s Highest Good on Earth. This requires balancing the male and female aspects within each person. Once the balance occurs, there is a new sense of harmony within the being, and new energy for creating good in your life.

Do you take your self to be your Dearly Beloved to have and to hold, to love and to cherish, to honor for all the days of your life? The Almighty God Force, All that is, waits for your answer. So be it.

Archangel Gabriel works on the orange ray, so it is good to surround yourself with this color. I always look for orange flowers, candles and food. Perhaps you might like to change the cloth on your altar to reflect the orange ray. All these ideas will anchor and help balance the energy in your second chakra.

Holiday BlessingsAt this blessed time, may you be blessed with Creative Solutions, and the Grace and Equanimity you need to stay in Harmony with your most Divine Self. Thank you for your presence on this transformational journey that we all share during this time of planetary evolution. I know you are blessing the planet as well as yourself.

With love and respect,
Shanta Gabriel

Living Life in Thanksgiving

Dear Ones,

Gratitude is an attitude that can profoundly change your consciousness. When you live your life in thanksgiving, it can affect your being at a biological level, training your mind and body to live in a higher state of health and wellbeing.

The creation of new attitudes of thanksgiving in your life attract new streams of light-filled energy to bless all that is honored in this way. When a blessing of thanksgiving is made in any moment, it confers light-filled Divine energy upon the person who sends it, as well as the situation being blessed. In challenging times it may seem difficult to find something to feel grateful for. In spite of this difficulty, one way to create a positive change in your life is to give thanks for what you have now. You can even give thanks in advance for what you want to create. This allows a shift in your consciousness so that you begin to attract new beneficial energy into your life.

When you find nothing else, you can give thanks for just being alive so your soul will evolve. It is a gift to be in a human body and your body is a miraculous instrument. Consider the fact that you have a heart within you that needs no conscious assistance on your part to continue beating. Remember that you don’t have to tell your digestive system to do its work.

All of these body parts are functioning in a wondrous Divine plan of perfection. When you turn your attention to these systems within your body, when you begin to give thanks for the incredible processes that continue 24 hours a day within you, they will function at a higher level. Your focus of attention with gratitude and blessings will bring more light and strength into your vital organs. For extra energy, consider filling these organs with a healing color such as pink or green, which brightens them with Divine Light. For fun you can then imagine a smile on a body part such as your liver or your heart. This will not only bless your organs, it will lighten your mind.

Your Body and Science

Dr. Emoto in Japan proved that beautiful crystalline structures were created when words of peace and love were placed on a glass filled with water. Imagine what grateful thoughts and words of kindness can do to your body with its high percentage of water content.  Science has also proven that the cells of the body can become healthier when one has thoughts and beliefs that are positive. The subconscious mind hears all the words you say to yourself and interprets them as truth.

Athletes have used creative visualization as a powerful asset in their respective sports. Studies have shown that the mind makes very little differentiation between the act of physical practice and the mental visualization of a highly trained athlete. It is extremely valuable to remember this and apply it to your own bodies. The act of giving thanks for your wondrous, healthy, strong and flexible body can lead it to respond in positive ways that assist in creating new healthier cells. Your body contains a Divine Blueprint of perfection that can be called forward into present day experience. It begins with giving thanks for your body right now, just the way it is, and adding the ideas of what you would like to create within you.

When you give thanks for your mind that is clear and serene, for a brain that functions with balance and precision, and especially when you give thanks for the Divine Light continually empowering your thinking processes, there is a positive response within you. Your gratitude will bless your mind and allow it to function at a higher level of vibration. These simple acts not only change your mind, they inspire your emotions to respond with delight. Imagine the idea of delight, and the thought of this, sometimes less than familiar feeling, will spark a new level of inspiration in your being.  Your imagination is an influential tool of empowerment, and it can be used for ill or for the good in your life.

Gratitude is the Attitude that will take you into your Heart

Consider the idea that your thoughts are like prayers reaching out into the Universal flow of life.  When you use your thoughts consciously, they become prayers that shift your perspective so you can see a greater picture of what is actually going on in your life. Prayers of gratitude are very powerful, and stimulate an increased flow of spiritual energy into every situation. This force can create miraculous change for good in your life. It may take a little effort to find something to be grateful for when you are feeling down, but prayers of thanksgiving can help create a beautiful shift in your mind when you do so.

It is vitally important for your future to nurture compassion for yourself, the mistakes you made as you were learning about life, and forgiveness for the person you were in the past. Be grateful for all that you have learned and all that you are. This act is a good beginning for a peace filled and happy future. You can open new doors for tomorrow with your grateful thoughts today.

No matter how it feels, you are never alone. You are here on earth to remember your connection to the Spiritual Presence in your life.  You are meant to live a happy, abundant life with deep fulfillment.  In order to do this, it is necessary to step out of the challenges life presents and into the flow of God’s love, which will bring you more creative solutions. There is one place where you can always go to feel the power of Divine Love, and that is in your heart. Gratitude is the attitude that will take you into your heart. It does not matter if you see nothing in your life for which to feel grateful, just the act of giving thanks opens a door in your heart to allow Divine Love in.

Sometimes it seems as though prayer is difficult or there may be negative associations with organized religion from childhood.  Perhaps some suggestions for prayers of thanksgiving can be useful.  Here are some possibilities for prayers that may help you to lift your thoughts and connect your heart to the One Heart within all beings:

Divine Presence,

Thank you for the abundant beauty of Nature that inspires me and offers the many blessings to all who will receive. Thank you for helping me to honor your Creation in every way I can.

Thank you for this day. Help me to see the blessings in my life, and learn the lessons given to me to learn. Show me what I need to know in order to grow into a more kind and loving human being, and take care of my responsibilities with grace and ease.  Help me to share the gifts you have given me in a way that adds more value to the world.

Thank you for my mind that is clear and expansive. Thank you for helping me to be open to new ideas that can bring good into my life. Thank you for my amazing body that is strong and flexible, and for the organs within it that are functioning with perfection.  Bless each cell and fiber of my being so that it is filled with your Divine Light.

Thank you for the forgiveness growing in my heart and the compassion within me for the person I am right now. Help me to also have compassion and understanding for others as they walk their own path in life.

Thank you for helping me to live my life in peace and harmony, and to be a radiant light for Divine Love in the world.

For these and all my blessings, I say, “Thank You God.”

May this time of Thanksgiving fill your heart with a new awakening to the Loving Presence within all things and bless every area of your life with pure Gratitude.

So be it.  Be it so.  Amen.

The Grace of the Angels

The Gabriel Messages #48

Allow the grace of the Angels to work in everyday functions.

Dear One,

The Angels are always available.  Their presence is blessing all that you do and say.  Their intention is toward Peace, Harmony and Divine Order.  When you call upon the grace of the Angels, all situations are blessed with their intentional energy.  This is a very powerful tool to use in daily life.

Do you want order in your work place so that all your work is done quickly and easily, so that all you need is available, and all your words and actions are guided?  If so, call the Angels into your work place.  Ask for their blessings and know divine order will be the result.  Allow the Angels to intervene on your behalf even with the smallest details that you feel you should take care of by yourself.  You will find your work flowing more easily and smoothly. Even more, Creative Solutions will abound.

Do you want peace and harmony in your relationships?  Ask the Angels to assist in your family and in all interactions with others.  More harmony and a new level of grace will be the result.

The Angels are here to bring more love, harmony and order into daily life.  They are here to demonstrate how much easier life can be when you allow a greater level of energy to work through you.  But they will not intervene unless they are asked, so there must be a willingness on your part to bring peace-filled energy into your life.

The Angels are messengers of God.  They are not here to be worshiped or to gain power over you.  They are here to assist you.  They are a part of the Divine Spirit just as humans are, so there is no need to fear when your intention is to have more miracles in your life.  Your willingness to have more love, joy and harmony will bring to you those very qualities you seek.  You can bring the Angels into your life to assist you in enhancing the energy you work with every day.

It is a great gift to have the Angels offer their energy for planetary good, as well as for the good of your personal life.  Allow yourself to receive this blessing.  Ask for assistance in all the mundane things that bring you stress.  Ask for angelic intervention in all overwhelming situations.  Allow yourself to feel this incredible level of support.  Be willing to have yourself surrounded in wings of pure love and see how much easier your life will feel to you.  Receive the love, light and wisdom of the Angels now.  And remember your message today:

Allow the grace of the Angels to work in every day functions.

Learn to Trust in Your Own Answers

The Gabriel Messages #25

Strengthen your conscious awareness of other states beyond the physical, communicate deeply within your self and learn to trust in your own answers.

Dear One,

You are here on this planet to develop yourself fully.  When the ancient philosophers stated “Know Thyself,” they were talking about the power of Self-awareness.  This means not just one’s consciousness of the physical, or even of the mental and emotional selves.  To truly know oneself means a real discernment of your self as a multi-dimensional being.

You have the power within you to know planes of reality beyond the three-dimensional world in which you live.  In fact, developing an awareness of these other states creates a link to the joy and love so many are seeking.  These qualities you truly desire in life are beyond the physical plane.  They exist in the expanded state of consciousness that is your bond with God, the Source of your very being.  To commune within your self is to find these qualities.  It requires a willingness to see beyond your outer self, and to take the time necessary to create a conscious awareness of the love and light within you.

Practice

As you sit quietly and breathe balanced breaths deeply and slowly, there are immediate results in mind, body and spirit.  Imagine that you are sitting in a pillar of golden light joining Heaven to Earth through you. This allows you to enlarge your consciousness.  When you add prayer asking for what you want in your life, you allow the grace of the Angels to work for you.

On this free-will plane of existence you need to ask for their assistance or they will not interfere.  This does not necessarily mean a formal prayer.  Asking can be as simple as saying the words for the qualities you want in your life, such as love, peace and harmony.  Meditating on these qualities can literally change your life and create a more abundant, joy-filled existence.  It allows you to tap into your Higher Self and your guardian Angels, so you are communicating with the deepest levels of your being.

From this place, the answers you receive will be from a level of Divine Order, and all that follows will be for the highest good of all concerned.  You will receive intuition and know the actions and words that will best assist you with the challenges you face.  Once you begin to act on your intuitive guidance, you will start to trust your self.  Life will feel easier.  You won’t need to continue looking to others for the answers.  With every fiber of your being you will know what is truth in your life.

Trusting in your self does not mean you are alone, for you are never alone.  At all times, you have with you Angels to assist you.  Some have been with you for eons of time.  Working in harmony with the Light of God, they know you at the deepest level of your soul.  It is comforting to know that you are always wrapped in their wings of pure love and cared for beyond your capacity to understand.

It is this link within the self that most people are seeking.  They hunger for knowledge of the love that is within them.  It is readily available through prayer and taking time to sit and breathe in light and love in a conscious manner.  So give your self the gift of sitting in light and love every day for five minutes.  It is a simple thing that will provide you with wondrous joy.

The Angels are ready now to lead you into the light of your true Self.  Create a conscious relationship with your Higher Power and find the joy you so desire to have. Ask for assistance from the Angels.  Begin to do this every day and miracles will surely occur, for miracles are your birthright and the natural state of your being.  Know that you deserve to have your life filled with Love, Joy and Miracles.  Learn to communicate within and trust in your own truth.  This is the way you will live to your fullest potential and fulfill your highest destiny on earth.
We love you and bless you with all that is good.  Remember your message from the Angels today:

Strengthen your conscious awareness of other states beyond the physical, communicate deeply within yourself and learn to trust in your own answers.
