Because angels are such high frequency beings, very few people ever see or hear them. So they make their presence known in other ways.

Little white feathers are their symbols, so if an angel wants to draw your attention to the fact that it is there, it will leave a little white feather in an unexpected place. Dee phoned me up to tell me this story.

She had been to an angel workshop and everyone around her seemed to be getting lights and messages and feel wrapped in angel wings and she felt nothing. Yet she knew the angels were there. So she asked the angels to come into her dreams that night. She received nothing. Feeling very cross, she thought it was most unfair that she was the only one that the angels did not touch. She was studying A Course in Miracles, so she picked it up and opened it. There, in her page for the day, was a little white feather!

Whatever the circumstance, angels have a perfect way of reminding you they are there, bringing comfort, hope and help.

If you know someone who is skeptical about angels, do not waste time and energy in persuading them of something they are not ready to believe. Angels have far more effective ways of drawing their presence to their attention. A friend of mine, Ann, went for a walk with a skeptical friend. When Ann talked to her about angels, she laughed sarcastically. Ann quietly mentioned that their symbol was a little white feather, which they would produce to remind you they really are there.They paused at the end of a path and leant against a gate to admire the view. Out of nowhere a small white feather dropped from a clear blue sky and landed gently in her friend's upturned hand. Ann told me that her friend's eyes shone with wonder as she looked at it.

A businessman called Robert phoned me one evening to tell me this intriguing story. He had been reading an angel book at his gym, when suddenly he felt pulled out of his body and taken into the Angelic Kingdom. He felt filled with joy and ecstasy and totally overwhelmed by the beauty and sense of love of the angelic presences. Then he returned to his body. Luckily his personal trainer was a very spiritual man who was able to help him come to terms with his extraordinary experience. As he left the gym, he bumped into an old friend he had not seen for many years. This man was a medium, who gasped when he saw him and said. "Oh, you've been with the angels. Your aura is full of feathers."

Whatever the circumstance, angels have a perfect way of reminding you they are there, bringing comfort, hope and help. For many years Merity stayed for a week in the same bed and breakfast each summer. One year there was a great sadness over the house as the landlady's fourteen-year-old son was ill. Merity had not seen him and did not realise how ill he was, until one of the landlady's friends passed her on the stairs and whispered. "Not long to go, I'm afraid."

For the first time Merity realized he was dying. She went to her room and lit a candle. Then she prayed for him and asked the angels to look after his spirit. Afterwards she went to the window and looked out. A beautiful cloud formed in the perfect shape of an angel. Even the feathers in the wings were defined. She said "thank you" to the angels and the cloud dispersed. The boy died two days later and she knew that the angels were with him. Angels always come to help you when you pass over but it is lovely to have a clear reminder of their presence.
