#20: Invoke the Archangel Michael for Psychic Protection

While it may not always feel like it, you have the power to surround yourself with a protective safety net that blocks negative psychic energy, whether it comes from within you or from points outside of your physical body. You can always invoke the Archangel Michael, the “field commander” of God’s army, for protection against such unwanted negative or dark forces. He will fill your mind with courage and strength, and you will soon feel the peaceful protection of the light and love of the divine helper.

In the Bible’s Old Testament, an unnamed numinous being (that some believe was the Archangel Michael) appeared with sword in hand, prompting a man named Joshua to fall down with his face toward the earth, and to ask the angel what words he had brought from the Lord. “And the captain of the Lord’s host said unto Joshua, Loose thy shoe from off thy foot; for the place whereon thou standest is holy. And Joshua did so” (Joshua 5:14-15).

In art, Michael is usually depicted as having wings and holding his sword while (often) standing upon the Devil or a slain dragon that represents Satan. In the Hebrew Apocrypha Book of Enoch, Michael is one of several archangels that always accompanies God the Father whenever He (Yahweh) departs from His throne. Michael has been associated with healing ever since he purportedly caused healing waters to flow from a spring in Colossae during the first century. Since that time, people seeking healing and protection have called upon Michael and flocked to churches honoring him. There have been sightings of apparitions resembling this angel since about the fifth century. If you see a numinous being with an unsheathed sword and feel a sense of victory or mercy, or feel restored to health and wholeness, you are likely being blessed by the presence of the archangel Michael.

Archangel Michael is the leader of the archangels. His name means “he who is like God,” and he is the archangel of protection and the patron saint of policemen. His sword symbolizes his ability to cut through all fear and resistance. He lends his courage and his strength to anyone who calls on him. Michael has a fiery energy, and when you invoke him it’s very possible you might feel warm or even begin to sweat. If you tap into your clairvoyance, you might see the colors purple and blue, which are associated with Archangel Michael’s presence. Call on Archangel Michael, and he will help you with protection of all kinds. He will empower you with the courage you need for any situation.
