 How
To Have An Angel Encounter
By Dr. Doreen Virtue
Another fear that prevents people from
seeing their angels and deceased loved ones is the fear of failure. This
fear often makes people push and strain to have an angel encounter. They
try to force it to happen, which blocks the experience completely.
The fear that causes us to force things
to happen comes from feeling alone, and a belief that, "If it’s
going to be, it’s up to me." Yet, our angel encounters come from
the power of God, the angels, ascended masters, and our deceased loved
ones. A teamwork approach to angel encounters works best.
In addition to calling upon Archangel
Michael’s presence, here are two other ways to diminish or eliminate
fear blocks
1. FREEZER METHOD. Write your fears on a
piece of paper. You can either write an elaborate description of your
fears, or just a general, "Fear of being psychic" sentence.
Then, put the paper into your refrigerator’s freezer compartment. If
you live with skeptics, it’s best to put the paper in the back of the
freezer, where it will be unnoticed, or freeze it in a small container
of water. Leave the paper in the freezer for a minimum of three months.
This method also works well with anything in your life that you’d like
to release, including problems in relationships, addictions, or money
issues.
2. DREAM METHOD. The angels do some of
their best work while we’re sleeping. Why? Because our fears are
asleep at that time. So, we’re more open to angelic assistance. Before
you go to sleep at night, mentally ask the Archangel Michael, the
Archangel Raphael (who is in charge of physical healings), and the
Archangel Uriel (who is in charge of emotional and psychological
healings) to enter your dreams that night. Mentally say to them,
"Please enter my dream, my body, my mind, and my heart, and clear
away any fears or unforgiveness that are blocking me from having a
conscious angel encounter."
The angels have a phrase that they love
to repeat "Your intentions create your experiences." This
means that our underlying expectations steer us toward what type of
experiences we have as a result. If we hold positive expectations about
our angel encounters, we’ll have positive results.
However, if we have negative intentions,
such as, "Gee, I sure hope I can do this" or "I’m
afraid to see the spirit world" or "Will God punish me for
doing this?" we will be blocked from having an angel encounter. For
one thing, the angels love us deeply and they wouldn’t do anything to
frighten us, such as showing up if we don’t really want to see them.
The same with your deceased loved ones. Your grandparent, Mom, Dad,
sibling, or other loved one sees your fear as a giant, "Keep
Away!" sign. They will respect that boundary out of love.
One of the reasons why children are so
psychic is because of their positive intentions. They don’t worry,
"Am I making this up, or is it real?" Children know that
reality comes in many flavors. They also trust their intuition to a
higher degree than most adults. Additionally, their lives are simpler
than adults, in general. So, their minds are less cluttered with
distractions, worries, pressures, and noise.
So, to open yourself to an encounter with
heaven, be as a little child. Let go of rigid expectations about your
angel connection. Just hold a positive intention such as, "I’d
really like to meet my guardian angel" or "I would love to see
and talk with Mom," and then release the desire to the winds of the
Universe. Trust your angels to catch your wish, and bring it to you in a
delightfully surprising way.
