Archangel Michael, Prince of Light

Posted under Saints, Archangels, and Ascended Masters

Archangel Michael is the most powerful of the Archangels in the Christian, Jewish, and Islamic traditions. Archangel Michael or Saint Michael is referred to in the Old Testament and has been part of Christian teachings since the earliest times.  Michael works  to create a world of peace and harmony.

The name “Michael”  means ”Who is like God”.  Michael is generally shown with a sword, and sometimes wearing a golden armor. He is also the Archangel of love and the healing blue flame of protection.  Archangel Michael has many important roles, the four main roles: protection, love, guardianship and peace.

Michael  is seen as the Prince of Light, the heavenly warrior who brings the light into the darkness. Michael eliminates negativity, clearing and purifying with his sword any negativity  giving us the power to live in balance, truth and integrity. You can also ask Michael to help others always asking for that person’s highest good.

Michael’s feast day is celebrated on September 29. In the fifth century, the Romans celebrated Michael during the middle ages, this feast became extremely important as Michael is the patron saint of knights.

Archangel Michael Appearances

Joan of Arc began hearing and seeing Michael at the age of thirteen.  Michael appeared to Moses in the burning bush.  Mother Mary works closely with Archangel Michael.   Mary, in her visits to the children of Garabandal in Spain, told them they needed to change their way of life;  Saint Michael reportedly delivered a message to announce the arrival of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Michael visited the children four years later, repeating Mary’s same message. 

Early in the 8th century, Saint Michael reportedly appeared three times to St. Aubert, the bishop of  Normandy, France and instructed him to build a church on the small island now known as Mont Saint Michel. Several healings were reported when the church was being built and Mont Saint Michel still remains a pilgrimage site.
