Summoning the Archangels for protection!

[Astraea Selene]

Yes, @Johnny Seraph high ranked angels are not likely into being worshipped. They do follow the creator's program and these angels like Arkangel Michael really on duty all the time. Although, I have seen him with Arcangel Raphael, doing rescue/healing work on people and even places and working guarding public servants (police, nurses & doctors).

Although, I don't worship any angels, I do have Archangel Michael Pendant locker with my Immortal Goddess Guide picture hidden inside. Also, I am really thinking of a Raphael pendant to get, just to show my gratitude to him.

I find myself regularly in the arms of an angel, when I am sick, seeing their white wings cover over me. These high ranked angels are so amazing and they have healing energy. When I do have their visits, I have enchanted moments, elevated coincidence for days, high pitched chimes ringing in my ears after it. Their presence are healing balm of celestial energy.

I do love them, and indirectly I do worship them and honour their presence with high regards. But again, angels always been around me and my first and foremost celestial friends I adored entirely in my whole life. I guess it's comes naturally to me to work with them in my own way.

I thought it might be useful to say at this point in the thread that, on what @Aprophis said, yes the Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram is a widely and long used ritual very well known in Occult circles that involves visualising the 4 elemental Archangels to the 4 directions of the circle that is drawn in the rite.

It's safe, in fact it's used for protection.

This is a Golden Dawn rite. That is not taught as a way of communicating with the Archangels but I note what @Aprophis said.

DJ Conway taught re astral travel that we can call in Archangel Michael when desperate for protection - as the astral police are often overworked. (This was part of what she taught.)

But @Magnolia 's caution about Archangels is surely not to be dismissed. So I will personally avoid 1-to-1 relationships with them.

Many people have found the LBRP useful. It can even be done visualising figures from other belief systems (see the Ciceros' book The Middle Pillar, which is written jointly with the famous Israel Regardie.)

Thanks for the bump Szyvagr!

I have not personally tried to call on the Archangels before, outside of getting bindings only from the ones that have made an appearance indicating they wish to work with me. I believe this Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram is a good one, when authentically used for it's correct situation and purpose, not for anything trivial. Definitely note worthy to keep in mind Magnolia's caution about the Archangels.

A few months ago I experienced a dream which directly informed me that I needed to perform the LBRP for my own protection. While I had heard of this ritual before, it was not one I had ever performed myself and I do not work with the archangels (though I have studied a bit about Michael and have respect for him). After practicing the words and motions over and over for nearly an hour I finally did a proper run of the ritual. It was still somewhat clumsy, I could tell, but it was apparently a passing job as my area was cleansed and removed of ill influences. I have heard of some people who do the LBRP weekly or even daily in their home practice. With respect to their own journeys, I feel that this is not how I would do it. But I do need to practice the motions again in case I am ever uniquely in need of calling on their protection once more. I deeply appreciate them for aiding me in my time of need.

If you are ever lucid it's crazy to call an arch angel in. I called Raphael in but I didn't see him, just occupied space but the vibration was like earthquakes. It was very cool.

I just wanted to give this thread a bump, as it contains some good information. And yes, come to think of it, I remember that now from reading the post in your thread about the Archangels.
