Will Angels Get Upset With Me?

Hello all,

As I'm reading more and more about spirit keeping, it has become clear that I will get myself an angel(s) for my keep as well as protection rituals.

I am concerned though of Angels and their view of their keeper. If I were to do something that is morally wrong, lets say it's a pretty mundane thing like having to lie to someone about something they don't need to know - will my angel become disappointed with my actions?

Or if I were to act poorly, will this further diminish my relationship with any angels I would have in my keep? I'm only asking because they're pure of "heart" and I'm not sure if that's something that is just separated in the different realms. Like our physical body/ emotions don't translate to angelic understanding. I hope this isn't too confusing, I may be explaining it poorly.

Thanks for any input!

It all depends on the individual angel and the actions. Some actions may cause angels to momentarily be disappointed, but it's greatly up to what you've done. It's like a friend being disappointed by a choice you might have made. It doesn't diminish any friendship in the least.

The angel spirits that come into our lives for our keep understand that we are human. We have the ability to make the choices we do, whether the choice is good or a bit mischievous or whatnot. Either way, it's our nature, and the angel that comes forward for us will understand that and more, and will be there for you through the choices you make as you continue on your journey. In this case, we as humans are considered dark arts. But that hasn't hindered white art spirits like some angels to come join us for our journeys.

You'll be absolutely fine bringing home an angel, I am sure of it :)

As stated above it really depends on the individual Angel. My Courtwinds and Bronwyn might advice against some things because it is in my best interest, and are less concerned about my moral character. So I think you should be fine with bringing Angels into your life.

Thank you both so much! That is more along the lines of how I thought they would be. Definitely makes me want to add at least one to my keep

There are some angels out there who you could, not inaccurately, describe as having a bit of an attitude problem when it comes to humans.

But if they don't have any patience for what you choose to do with your life, and your God-given free will, they more than likely wouldn't volunteer to live in your keep in the first place.

It takes WORK to get an angel to say they're outright mad at you, from my experience. They'll get disappointed with you, sure. Exasperated, yeah. But an angel in your keep is not going to one day, out of nowhere, bust out a flaming sword and scream, "I SHALL SMITE THEE, MISERABLE SINNER!"

You might get some version of, "Now why on Earth did you do that?!" once in a while, but that's not a judgmental question. They'll ask that, either for their own clarification, or to make sure that you learned whatever it was you were meant to.

Look at it this way. Suppose Fluffy the cat claws the curtains, and the curtains are ruined. You'll be mad at Fluffy when you find out, and you'll probably remember what happened every time you see the new curtains--perhaps more fondly as time goes on. But you won't stop loving Fluffy for the rest of her life, over a set of curtains.

Make sense?

Over time I've expanded my own practice to working with various types of angels including the archangels in some instances.
While your question has already been reasonably answered I just want to add a little anecdote.

I have always been more inclined toward a 'darker' personality and darker paths of spirituality, and earlier on in my journey while I was very compelled and drawn to angels I couldn't reconcile that somehow. I had a huge aversion to working with them and when I invited an angelic spirit to be a constant in my life I had a small freak-out about it and tried to communicate with him how I was feeling and why.
What he revealed to me first off was that he came into my life because he accepts me and wants to help bring a balance to my senses, and secondly he gave me a vision of angels which are more dualistic in nature and how many can understand our human duality, who can in turn also help me understand the angelic. This is a necessary element of growth, to see and know different sides than we may believe can fit together.

His insight immediately soothed me and ever since, I have not had an issue. I know this veers a little beyond what you are asking about, but based on my experience not just as a 'flawed human' but as someone who actively and knowingly revels in the darker reaches of our existence, I am just going to say that angels are well worth your consideration *especially* if you think they may get upset with you. You're going to be opened up to a whole other perspective. You are also going to find that they can carry some very potent and unconditional, dutiful feelings when it comes to the person they are protecting and involved with, which I seriously respect.
