The Angel of Warning

Message from the guides - After a stormy relationship ends, have you ever looked back and knew something was off? Have you ever felt a pang of the heart which warned you something did not serve you? Look back at the signs of enough; you will find that the Angel of Warning was plucking the harp strings of unhealthy attachment.

We have all heard of the angel of death and the ramifications of his arrival. Recently, I was giving an intuitive reading and the guides used the term, the angel of warning. This angel was shown to me in a psychic vision. She was hallowed in a soft greenish hue, while playing a celestial harp. The angel plucked the strings of the harp, which represented attachments trapping the person in a relationship bound to their root insecurities. The effect of plucking the strings created an intuitive feedback, reminding a person something was not fitting in their predicament. Staying attached did not serve them. In fact, the prompt showed them to either struggle for sovereignty or walk away. This had the potential to heal their past in the present predicament.

Who is pulling your strings these days? 

When I guide groups in reflection work and ask an open-ended question like this, many people are jolted to find a response arrives intuitively. Try it now, close your eyes and ask the question above. Wait to see what comes forward in your awareness. It’s possible you feel the response in your gut. This is the gut instinct or navel chakra response. Your soul wants a way out of the predicament and knows instinctively something is wrong. Any attention placed on unhealthy attachments, will show themselves. You may even feel the shudder down your spine as you receive the intuition. This is because the intuition is “reading” the attachment anchored in your root chakra.

In the tussle of real life when people look back on unhealthy relationships they find myself thinking; yeah, I knew it was not right for years; I knew in my gut that something was off. Hindsight is 20/20, meaning we now see clearly. Imagine the truth is intuitively trying to get your attention the entire relationship.

Please try to reflect on a real life situation and test my theory. Notice what those signals feel like in your body and nervous system. Learn from the past and try to apply in the present. You are working on your karma, meaning action and reaction to attachments.

The Angel of Warning plucking the attachment cords

What do the cords of the harp represent?

Imagine each of us has deep seated beliefs, often formed in early life. Some of these beliefs are healthy and serve us in our journey. Examples might be your core principles of integrity, honor yourself, or say what you mean. Others cords are unhealthy and work against your truth. They are often simple but profoundly impact our ability to see things clearly. Examples might be, I am not good enough, I never break a commitment, or I am not worthy of a good partner. As cliched as they sound, my mediumship finds these stories hidden in people’s relationships, again and again. Typically fear locks them into the ground, and then we try to control ourselves against our higher instincts.

One key mechanism here is loyalty, which an expression of the root chakra earth energy. Loyalty can be firm soft or rigid. If someone experienced childhood instability, once they are with someone, they cling to that person for safety to avoid going back to the old situation. That’s might have been a healthy strategy in childhood, but keeps you frozen in the present. The love bond is tied or anchored to root self-belief. That cord or harp string keeps us bound to someone. To break the cord might actually strengthen our resolve and give us a new self belief.

Don’t be hard on yourself if you have wasted time in unhealthy relationships, I certainly have. What matters is timing. All the angel is doing is reminding you the attachments cords are there and to look at them. In some cases you pushed to your limit and the cord snaps. While it can be devastating you have a golden opportunity to redefine yourself in the chaos. From the ashes she rises.

The Way Forward

At Wisdom Pathways our tagline is your way forward. The reason we declare that is, once you align with your Truth, the soul’s inner wisdom whispers a pathway forward. The truth is what’s in your heart, not your head. So it frequently contradicts your current logic. Here are the typical steps to remedy your situation.

First is to listen and trust your instincts. You may have a conversation or argument which doesn’t feel right. You felt this before and it activates in your gut. If you can walk away someone quiet and inquire to that message. Beware of your ego-narrator who may discount your feelings.

Second is to talk to someone and share your feelings. I find the best friends in these situations and many therapists or healers are a wonderful support.

Finally, take action, this may be the hardest part. Think of an inner battle you face your past in the present, but you are not stuck in the past anymore. This a hero’s moment, literally. One where you come of age.

Courage and Support

Mythology describes an inner battle, a heroic quest of the soul. Hollywood often deludes us and distracts into extreme versions of the quest. Actually, this is about the little hero, who finally snaps, says no, and demands respect. To actually face that pain and act bravely is a truly courageous. Small choices are really big now. Rarely does a movie hero (the really great ones) act in isolation. They are a trusted companion, a mighty steed or a pack of misfits by their side. Gain support of people who think outside the narrow confinements of right and wrong. People who know how to say no. Listen and draw your inner sword.

This is a form of Divine protection.

We tend to think of breakups or challenges as bad, which is a ego point of view. The soul however, is eager for us to face and fight in these experiences. Remember if an actual angel is plucking your harp strings, this is a form of divine protection. Some force nudges us and moves us forward. It’s not that we are managed, it’s part of our soul agreement. We are compelled to act, but how we act is up to us.

Ignoring the Harp strings leads to negative feelings

It is important to note the more the string is plucked the more frayed it becomes. Most people, including me don’t listen nearly half as enough as they could. When we keep ignoring the signs they go deeper on the attachment cord, closer to the root and pull us further into darker emotions and actions. This is why we create new desires which are usually lower pleasures which distract us and keep us trapped.

Remember, when someone “snaps” the angel has played so much, the attachment breaks and a person “loses it”. You are not a bad person when this happens! On the contrary, a divine protective force just undid the attachment. When you snap what held you up comes flying down. Positively a major rejection takes place. Negatively your old hurts come loose, which can lead to erratic behavior. Please remember, the support system includes therapist, healers and good friends. Do remember the snapping is something inside finally setting a boundary. The road to recovery is open for you, right now.

Know in your heart that you are guided and protected by a force greater than your mind. Something which loves you and prods you to make the shift. The stronger this gets the closer you are. Take one step on the path and the path will reveal itself to you.

Honor yourself, honor your story and honor the quest. Anything is possible

Blessings
