Human spirits cannot be our angels insomuch as an angel can never be human and a human can never be an angel (with the exception of the Archangels Metatron and Sandalphon – see ‘Archangels’, page 147). Most traditions say that humans can never be angels. Having said that, the loving spirits of passedover relatives can and do watch over us from the other-side. They are able to send us loving energy in a similar way to angels.

Humans are spirit in the body-vessel, but angels are pure light energy.

‘The angels are a strange genus; they are precisely what they are and cannot be anything else. They are themselves soulless beings who represent nothing but the thoughts and intuitions of their Lord.’

C. G. JUNG

Many people see their relatives visit them from ‘the other-side’ where they appear in a body-less form, often surrounded by a white light. This is where the confusion may arise. Our loved ones can watch out for us and often make it their specific task to act as our ‘guardians’ by passing us messages of warnings and so on. There are vast numbers of recorded incidences where the loving spirits of our relatives who have gone before, appear to ‘guide and protect’ from the after-life.

Shona wrote to tell me about her own experience:

‘When I was 14 my grandma passed to spirit and I was devastated because we were really close! About two weeks later I could not sleep and felt guided down the stairs to the kitchen. No lights were on and there were no windows from which a light could have shone from outside! Yet there was the most brilliant white light over the boiler, and it was full of peace and calm. I felt drawn towards it and just stood with this energy. It made me feel so serene just like my Nan always had! I know it was her!

When my mother-in-law passed to spirit, it was a very stressful time for my husband. His Dad, who was left behind, lives in Bournemouth and we live in London, which is a big distance away!

We went up to visit once a month. The first time we went the energy was so cold and deadly! The next time I called to my mother-in-law Dorothy to tell her I was really stressed and needed to know she would help, and when we arrived at the flat it felt warm and lived in! My husband always multi-checks everything before leaving a house so I know all appliances had been switched off!

I know if you ask, spirit will come but just not always as you expect. Often lights flicker, TVs turn on and off, and things get moved, but I say “God bless” each time, knowing my loved ones are always close!’
