Raphael
Guardian of Spring

After the Winter, Spring is a time of budding, of allowing growth into our lives in all the areas we have prepared during the Fall and Winter. This is a time when our cleansing and purifying really begins to show, as Spring starts new adventures and it is once again a time to be outside and enjoying Nature.

Raphael, whose name means 'God Heals', is the Angel of Healing as well as the Guardian of Spring. As the Creator's messenger and helper, he helps guide us on our Divine Quest.

By healing our life and our environment, we are able to find and fulfill our Divine Quest. Our journey of healing continues in the Spring, after we received new visions of our path, and what is still necessary for us to heal during the Winter. Raphael's gentleness aids our progress during the Spring, guiding us to continued healing and enlightenment. He works with us individually, and as a group, for he knows that we each have special needs, and yet are interconnected, one with another. Not only with other humans, yet also with the Earth, with Nature, with the creatures of the air, land, and water, and with Spirit.

Raphael assists us with this interconnected healing, for in the Summer we reach a time of balance within our being. . .balance between what is called our feminine and masculine attributes. To prepare us for this time, Raphael's glowing presence works gently on the separation we feel from one another, from the world we live in, and from Spirit.

Spring brings with it newness of all life, including our own. If we open to flow with the Universe, we find that Spring is a time of creativeness, a time of gentle budding of that which we decided to grow last Fall. Through the Winter, we allowed for rest and rededication to our path. Now, with Spring, we often are ready to 'spring' forward, with lightness and merriment in our hearts.

Even as Christ's resurrection is celebrated in Spring, so too can we celebrate our resurrection from the past, from that which no longer serves us.

There may be times during Spring when our journey is painful or a burden. It can almost feel as if we are carrying the cross to our own crucifixion. Yet, in our times of trial, remember that it is a resurrection we are moving towards. The trial will end. The cross will hold our weight. We will be freed from suffering.

Call upon God/Goddess/All That Is to assist you, and ask for Raphael to aid you in your healing.
