Angelic Pathways by Chantel Lysette Read Free Book Online Page B

often referring to Heaven’s archangels. The archangels are some of the most beautiful and awe-inspiring creatures that humans will ever lay eyes upon. These angels have been with us since the birth of humanity and have been weaving throughout growing civilizations and countless cultures since before the written word. Once humans began pondering their place in the cosmos, they began to look up to the skies and within themselves for the answers. Once people began asking the big questions of Who am I? and Why am I here?, the archangels began to make their presence known as ambassadors of the Source. They became the voice, and at times even the physical presence, through which the unfathomable power of the Source would manifest.
    Today, angels seem to have been relegated strictly to the New Age and religion sections of bookstores, but I can’t be emphatic enough when I say that there is absolutely nothing New Age about the Hosts of Heaven. They have been with us since the dawn of time, long before any organized religion was ever established. And while the angels are indeed divine creatures, they are not religious beings. Of course, they are recognized today in the sister religions of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam—as well as other religions, if you look hard enough—but the angels themselves have never subscribed to any one religion. They are here for all of us, regardless of our religious beliefs or even lack thereof.
    The word angel literally means “messenger,” and the archangels—or chief messengers—are the many different manifestations of the Source that serve as communication channels between the Source and our reality. They are the conductors of the cosmos who walk with humanity to help carry out what Archangel Michael calls “God’s Great Equation.”
    In sum, they are the divine custodians of fate.
    As you read previously and will read later on in this book, building a relationship with the angels was no easy task for me initially. I’m writing this book and laying out all my faults to help you avoid the many pitfalls I’ve encountered. Not only do I want to supply you with useful, accurate information on the angels so you can better get to know them, but I also want to help you better understand them and their personalities. Yes, just like us humans, angels have personalities.
    Since my previous two books were released, I’ve received countless e-mails and have been asked in interviews why these divine messengers feel they have to display human traits such as a preference for a certain color, food, or kind of music. These sound like things we might see on a social networking page—actually it was a social networking page that prompted me to begin asking the angels such questions. While an angel’s love for spicy Mexican food may seem trite or even absurd, I can assure you it is not.
    The angels show us their “human” side so we can better relate to them. It also helps immensely with connecting and communicating with the angels because, although humans possess intuitive skills, we all utilize those skills differently. So knowing that Archangel Cassiel has a love for industrial music whereas Haniel’s heart thumps to the rhythm of bluegrass can help when discerning their signs and messages.
    This also means that we’ll resonate better with some angels than others. I must admit that my growing relationship with Archangel Gabriel was incredibly rocky in the beginning. The angel’s meticulous and militant nature proved to be an irritant for me on many an occasion because I completely lacked the discipline that he demands. The interesting part is that irritation often motivates and moves me into action. So while it’s uncomfortable for me to work with Gabriel from time to time, at least things get done. And that’s all that matters.
    I resonate best with Archangel Cassiel. As I recounted in The Angel Code , he’s the only archangel I’ve seen with my physical eyes. I’m not sure if I feel closer
