This is a gift from a reader, Agnieska from Poland it is the painting of my guardian angel.
I wrote a book about angels I believe in angels. The book is called The Valkyries, it takes place in the Mojave Desert and there (and not only there) I had a very strong experience with angels.
Having said that: I want you to share in this forum your experience with angels.
Meaning, moments that you know that your angel is taking you out of trouble; moments that you know that your angel is helping you to get the things that you want.
And of course I want you to discuss with us your beliefs in angels. This very important because even though people talk a lot about angels, they are not truly paying attention. Normally because they dont notice that angels use other people to talk, to act for us.

My nephew of 19 has been in a coma following heart surgery 3 weeks ago. We had been called to the hospital to expect the worst, however he clung to life, and was kept on a ventilator although in a deep coma. I had prayed to God and Archangel Michael to help him on the road to recovery. I had taken some time off from work to support the family and one morning (Friday early morning) there was a knock on my front door, I answered and a little girl in pink stood in front of me. I smiled at her, a little concerned that she was on her own so early and said “hello what is your name” and she said “FAITH”, I smiled again and repeated her name and said what a nice name she had. She was with her father collecting money for local waste services and had run on ahead to knock on the door. I smiled and felt comfort and later I visited the hospital and told my nephews mum. The following day I left the hospital around 6.30 pm and had to go to buy some meat for our Sunday lunch. I decided to go to a particular shop which meant I would have to turn left at the road junction upon exiting the hospital. I was on ‘automatic pilot’ with thoughts of my nephew and found myself turning right, which meant I was on my own route home and realised I had to make a detour to an alternative supermarket to pick up the meat. Travelling along I was stopped at the junction close to the supermarket and for some reason my attention was drawn to a large billboard in the front of an office building which read “TIME is a GREAT HEALER”. I did a double take and smiled to myself as i recollected Faith knocking on my door. At the supermarket I purchased meat, milk and bread and decided to look for a paperback book to try and relax as I was feeling very anxious for my nephew. Nothing looked interesting on the shelf and I turned to walk away but my eye caught a title “The Magic of Angels”. I felt I had to buy this book as I had a gut feeling that “coincidence” was at work here which I found comforting. The book was not however a novel but an authors research into angelic experience following interviews with many people. I read the book over the next couple of days and was amazed at the number of experiences quite ordinary people (which included famous musicians, artists, politicians etc)had of angelic interaction. It is now two weeks since we were called into the hospital and my nephew although considered ‘critical’ has opened his eyes, moved the right side of his body and yesterday he smiled for his family and friends. The social network site Facebook has seen so many hits on my nephews page that I truly believe the power of prayer, love and positive thought is carrying my nephew, family and friends through this difficult time. My own interest in healing therapies and Reiki practice has set me on a more spiritual path and I have learnt to understand that we do not have all the answers to our questions and sometimes just have to be patient and let life unfold. I have read several of Paul’s books and enjoy his writing enormously.
It’s rare for me to know they are there but when I do I really know they are there.
The air changes around them and my need to live and not just breath till I die returns.
I seem them in lucid drems here and there and then learn the things they tell me are true.
I won’t discuess the “proof “here (I am not comforatable with that and was thinking to write abought it on my blog one day but for now I want to keep the very personal and deeply painful details to myself. But I did just want to say yes I belive.
And thank goodness they belive in us either way !
I haven’t had any contact with them, that’s why I’m not sure if angels really exist. Thinking rationally, angels seems more like Santa Claus, a human invention. But anyway, I will give a credit to Paulo and start to look for them.
I believe in angels. They help me, guide me. And love me (hope so). And I think it’s great that angels live with us and talk from heart to heart.
we have different experiences about angels….and i too believe that they do really exist……protecting me from harm…always there for me all the way….
Thank You my Guardian Angel…
It’s not that I believe in Angels, the thing is I can feel him with me at all times. I know when he is pissed at me, I know when he is pushing me forward and I know when he wants me to act. Something very weird happens with us,though. He only makes things happen, you know, the things you really really really want to happen, when I am not expecting them. When I’m not thinking about them, which is weird because I’m quite an obsessive person and when I want something it’s always on my mind. I don’t know why he does that, but I thank him anyway. I suppose the best things are the ones you don’t understand.
yes , i know what you mean .i have similar experienxes ,too.
Dear Paulo, I’ve been once there, and if I got it right, i am allowed to post my thoughts in my native language, I am deeply appreciating it, our fair magician and warrior of the light…
Дорогой Пауло,
Не знаю, как можно выразить мою благодарность. Я потеряна во времени и в пространстве, когда читаю Ваши книги. Мне очень хочется верить, что многие цели, поставленные перед нами достижимы. В этом я вижу Вашу близость с Экзюпери и Бахом, хотя Вы пишете о самых разных вещах…
Касательно ангелов, я умела раньше видеть их… даже иногда разговаривала с ними… Но однажды, что-то в моей душе перевернулось и я не могу больше слышать их, хотя их присутствие всегда чувствуется… Я благодарна Вам, за то, что помогли мне вновь понять, что это такое- ощущать ангела рядом с собой.
Sincerely,
Nourganym
Hola
Yo creo en los angeles, mi mamá siempre me dijo q yo tenia muchos siempre cuidandome, porq nose porq pero desde pequeña he sabido pasar situaciones dificiles, sobretodo de salud, y mi mamá siempre me contaba, que en el momento que dejaban de esperar todo, ocurrian milagros, yo volvia a respirar, yo volvia a sonreir, yo volvia a caminar.
Y hasta ahora me pasa, yo siempre converso con mi angel que lo he llamado hace años como Aniel, un dia se me ocurrio llamarlo asi. Y se que el siempre esta conmigo. Se que siempre me cuida, se q me hace entender las cosas de la mejor manera sin dejar de hacerme sonreir.
Se q soy una persona bastante particular, pero yo creo fielmente, en mi Anielito. Y se que si el pone algo en mi camino siempre es para que este mejor. Ahora que ya estoy un poco mayor, creo que me toca dar fe de la bondad de ellos y que todo esta para nuestro mayor bien.
Una de las experiencias mas impresionantes, fue que una vez estaba regresando a mi casa sola de noche y se aparecieron un grupo de asaltantes y le robaban a todos los que estaban en su camino y venian directo a mi. Entonces trate de ponerme a un lado para que no me vieran y vi un muro grande y me pare ahi, esperando que no me vean. Yo cuando me pare ahi, senti realmente que algo me cubria y me protegia. Vi a estas personas pasar por mi lado, me miraron y siguieron de largo. Y cuando los vi lejos reaccione a buscar por donde avanzar y vi que el muro q lo vi de 2 metros cuando me arrecoste, no media mas de un 1 metro, y estaba totalmente visible a cualquier persona. Yo creo que lo q vi de 2 metros era mi angel cuidandome y sus alas que me protegian. Luego de agradecer regrese a mi casa contenta de estar bien y de saber q el estaba conmigo.
Asi que crean en sus angeles, tengan fe en ellos que siempre nos miran y nos cuidan.
Saludos.

I do believe in angels, they come in different forms, people and even things that we don’t expect to happen. A couple of minutes ago i was reading your forum about angel and suddenly i heard a song angel by fra lippo lippi playing in my ipod. One of the many reasons that I believe they exist. Thank you angel for always at my side. :)
Dear paulo, this is the first time i have mailed you thank you for your books which i have read many the last one i read brida was wonderful. Anyway, angels when i was a boy of maybe 6 or 7 i remember my mother was cleaning our bathroom and i saw a bottle on the floor which i thought was lemonade but acually strong bleach so i thought i would have a drink, as soon as i touched the bottle top i felt an electric shock tingle my fingers not severe but enough to keep me away from bleach bottles for years. A couple of years ago i was driving home along the motorway in england after a long nightshift at work, being very tired i felt myself drifting off to sleep at the wheel i tried to stay alert but eventually closed my eyes after what must have been a few secounds i felt an electric shock in both of my elbows, i could not have been more awake after that if i had taken a line of cocaine and the feeling of being loved i felt was wonderful as i sang the rest of the way home, i think someone up there likes me.
… angels use other people to talk, to act for us …
I’ve never thought about it like that, but i do feel exactly the same now, as i’ve seen enlighted faces that made feel loved … well then, that can also mean that everyone of us can be the voice of an angel when the heart is open and the mind is about finding the truth as simple as it is in fact…
Hello Paulo,
I think I have always believed in angels in an abstract sort of way until a few years ago. I now believe totally. I know they are with me and they have changed my life. One story I can tell you is that one day I was in a second hand bookshop. I wanted a light romance to lose myself in for awhile. I ended up spending twice as much and going home with a book that fell off a shelf – it was about angels. I cannot remember the title but the book spoke of a man who was told his angels were trying to get his attention. He would know they were near whenever he saw the numbers 444. I shared this book with my sister who in turn told her son about 444. “why 444?” he said, “why not..333?” Next thing he happened to glance at his watch – it was 3.33. This also happened to me. I could not sleep one night so I got up and randomly opened a page in my angel book for some guidance. Before going back to bed I looked at the time on my cell phone then went to get a drink. My husband called out – what is the time? I parroted what the phone had displayed 4.44 and suddenly realised what I had said!! One day I was having my haircut and told my hairdresser about this. The next time I went in she rushed up to me and said “do you remember telling me about 444?” I said yes – she said sfter I left the very next customer had a phone number with 444!!!
I know many of you can say these are just co-incidences, but what is a co-incidence but our angels trying to get our attention?
in my childhood i believed that when someone passed away his or her soul becomes an angel. today i know that a soul and an angel are different according to the catholic belief.
although there are some informations that i believe are trivial, i is most important to experience them, angels.
i remember those time when i am full of love from my family, friends and others i bearly know. it made me feel invulnerable. as if nothing can stop me. there is just the full compulsion to move to a certain direction. but i felt it whire i was reflecting(you may call it meditating or deep thinking).as if i am guided. the feeling that i am remove from anything that is unpleasant like the feeling of envy, self pity, incontentment and all that i must say “EAT” the days of my life.
now it hard to experience it. there are lots of reasons i could think why but i havent relfected the real reason.
there are also those “aha!” moment when God seems to speak with me as if there are certain message that is very much meaningful to the whole me.
i cannot also deny the numerous instances when thing i always think of, those that preoccupy me whether it is a problem, an idea, a though or a dream reavels it self to me in television, radio, books etc.
this are somewhat i say is out of the ordinary. i also thing that when i think deep there are many ideas that come to my mind. others may rationalize that iit is the power of the human brain but i just think that those phenomenon i observed and i am convinced are more than the processe a man made computer can accomplish- its more than the synergy of applied science, mathematics, logic etc.
Angels… I DO believe in their existence.. How couldn’t I? They’ve helped me out of the worst hardships in my life, healed me, guided me, comfort me, saved me… The first time I really felt I was blessed and protected by Angels was in the big city where I was living at the time. I was crossing a street, one sunny afternoon, and was walking just in the middle of it when a fast car suddenly and unexpectedly drove so fast that I instantly thought I would be run over! I still don’t know how I could do it, but at the same time I was thinking of my being definitely badly hurt I made a weird twirling move of my whole body (it was not an ordinary “position” of the body, not only I felt it but I saw it on the people’s faces on the opposite pavement; they were watching me in great wonder and surprise afterwards, wonderin how I could have done that.. which I can’t do actually, because I am not a dancer nor a sportswoman). It all happened very fast, the car roaring, the fearful thoughts, the quick weird move.. anyway I had managed to escape from that accident. I was unbelievably standing safe on the opposite pavement, I had never crossed a street with such a twirl of my body, I felt very tired and relieved at the same time. After a few seconds I was breathing slowly again. I happened to be next to a bookshop, and the first thing my eyes came upon was the title of a book inside that shop: “Notre Ange Gardien Existe ” (Our Guardian Angel Exists). I burst out laughing loud because that was so incredibly funny after what had just occured to me…it was like a humorous signal from my own Guardian Angel I thought at once… Since that day I’ve known and experienced a lot of times that I was not alone and much helped. Thanks a lot & much LOVE to my Angel(s)

Creo en los ángeles por que escrito esta en la biblia: El senor envira sus ángeles y a diario están entre nosotros.
Olá Paulo. Estou me recuperando de uma cirurgia e, portanto, estou com muito tempo para fazer o que eu mais gosto: ler e navegar na net. Adorei o assunto dos anjos. Entendo os anjos não como seres invisíveis ou intocáveis ou mesmo seres de luz. Meus anjos sempre foram muito visíveis e humanos. Aliás, não tenho anjos, e sim um anjo em especial: meu marido. Com ele aprendi que a vida é feita de observação, de percepções, de entendimento, aprendi a ouvir o que realmente é dito e não o que aquela pessoa negativa que, as vezes, insiste em aparecer como sendo eu, resolve entender. Anjos não caem do céu. Anjos estão ao nosso lado, sempre. Nós é que não os vemos, apesar de serem humanos. Precisei sofrer muito (o que, hoje, não considero sofrimento e sim uma forma diferente de ver as coisas) para perceber quanta coisa ele estava me ensinando através das suas atitudes, das suas palavras que eu insistia em não ouvir, do amor que ele sempre teve por mim. Ele é o meu anjo. Minha vida. Minha alegria. Alegria que, sempre digo, é a força maior da vida. É com alegria que obtemos amor, felicidade, amigos, dinheiro, saúde.
Faz muito tempo que não escrevo, acho que nem sei mais organizar minhas idéias. Mas essa é a minha contribuição. Encontrei meu anjo há 30 anos.
Abraço e alegria, sempre!

Veo ángeles por todas partes, hadas en el asfalto , protectores de lo más preciado y puro de la tierra , el amor llevado en vasos humanos , los ojos de los que tienen esperanza , querido Paulo algun dia podria ponerse en contacto conmigo , parece escribir sobre mi … y siento que su alma habla mi idioma. Estoy escribiendo sobre el alma, el amor en los ojos humanos , soy una ignorante , tengo tanto que contar que no se como darle una forma hermosa.Mientras tanto desde Barcelona le mando un manto de paz y amor , de ilusión y luz para seguir tocando el alma del mundo. Besos de alegría
Angenlique..tu nombre te nombra..gracias por contar lo que ves..yo tambien creo en los angeles,puedo sentirlos..sentir su luz,son seres de luz,que nos protejen,siempre hay uno en nuestro camino..Una vez una voz,me salvo de que me pisara un camion,senti una voz muy fuerte que me decia “corre”,por que bajaba de un colectivo e iba a cruzar la avenida sin darme cuenta que venia un camion a toda velocidad..
Me gusta lo que decis,del alma del mundo..mucha luz para vos..y todos..Clarisa
” DIALOGS WITH THE ANGELS ” Gitta Mallasz
(translated into 12 languages)
The book “dialogs with the angel” is a transcript of a spiritual teaching,received by 4 friends Hungarian, of the “angel” or “spiritual master”, as they appoint sometimes (for 17 months – 88 interviews !! )
The words and actions of those messengers are bearers of hope and progress of being ( i have read that 50 pages yesterday and already i note the similarities with …: same message , “stages” identical, a same truth … I look forward to continuing the book , but also , Yet and always THE PATH

A vision delightful :
a pious widow who treating Sainte Lydwine of Schiedam and which was aware that the angels proved his girlfriend in a form sensitivity, the begged him to show a. Lydwine, grateful to this woman of so many good care, for the Lord and after being satisfied that his prayer was welcomed, she said to the widow : Kneel you my dear, here that the angel you want to know comes.
And the angel springs in the house in the figure of a young boy whose dress was woven of yarns of white lights. This woman was so delighted that it was unable to utter a single floor to express its joy. Then Lydwine, welcomed the see if satisfied, asked my brother, do you allow my sister to contemplate, even for a minute, the splendour of your eyes? And the angel the fixing, this woman was raised outside of itself, and for some time,It does not fit more than moaning of love and crying, without being able sleeping or eating. Lydwine said sometimes to its intimate: I do not know of any affliction that only one light of my angel are alleviated ; his gaze operates on the pain as a ray of sunshine on the dew of morning he evaporated. Can you imagine what virtues the Creator floods its elected in the sky,since the view of the lesser of his angels enough to disperse all evils and we provide a jubilation which far exceeds all those that we can wait here below. » And she added: “It is appropriate to love and to worship these pure spirits which, although very superior to us, agree however to protect us and we serve. »
Sainte Lidwine from Schiedam tells us that it was a “example of the human suffering and patience heroic”. Become bedridden following an accident when it is only sixteen years, it unites with the Passion of Christ and will be favored until the end of his life of many graces mystics. Born in 1380 died in 1433

Talking about Angels is like talking about ETs: even though people believe in the possibility of life in outer space, no one will believe ET has phoned YOUR home.
But here it goes.
I’m having trouble deciding where and how to begin this story, because when my Angel presented himself last year I realized he had been reaching for me for a very long time.
And I say HE was reaching for me because I wasn’t looking for him.
I was playing with synchronicities. As a part of another story, I was taking notes on my facebook page of things that happened, songs playing on the radio or in my head, random thoughts, my internet brainstorms that always led to hilarious stuff… I was basically just going with the flow and having a blast, not one day went by without a lot of “lol”s.
And then I noticed the number 69 starting to appear. And then it appeared EVERYWHERE. The uncanniest was a bottle of ketchup at a cafe: “Heinz 1869″ (which is remarkable because ketchup is usually kept in those ultra suspicious red plastic bottles).
It was driving me crazy. I felt extremely embarrassed of writing about it on facebook. I laughed really out loud when I read this on twitter days ago:
“I never wrote a book with daily updates. It’s like to make love in front or 305000 people.”
I wasn’t writing a book, but I was 69.ing in front of my friends! Even worse, 69.ing by myself! [insert your imagination here] because there was nothing happening as a consequence: the number wasn’t leading to anything special other than the coincidence itself.
This was my life until I moved from one room of the house to another. All of a sudden I started to wake up earlier than I used to. I usually woke up at 07:00 AM, that morning I woke up at 05:30. The next morning, 05:00. I heard a rooster crowing, my thought was: “I canNOT believe there’s a rooster in the neighborhood and its waking me up!” (I live now in São Paulo, Brazil, a VERY urban city).
But the next day I woke up at 04:30. “It’s not the rooster… Whatever wakes the rooster up it’s waking ME up in the process”.
It went on, I woke up at 04:00, 03:30. At that point I wrote on my page: “If things continue at this pace, soon I’ll be waking up at my regular time.” Needless to say, I was a zombie then. I couldn’t think anymore.
So on a Friday the zombie me decided to buy a stair, because I had to change some lamps. And I announced it on my page, illustrating with a song:
There’s a lady who’s sure all that glitters is gold
And she’s buying a stairway to heaven
When she gets there she knows if the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for
I posted this exact video with the image of a stair leading up to Heaven:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BcL—4xQYA
But I couldn’t find the wallet where I kept the big bucks: besides hiding it I hadn’t organized the new room yet. I made a mess looking for it, papers, books, folders, all over the floor. When I finally found it, I realized it was Friday 13th. “No way I’m going to buy a stair on a Friday 13th.”
Abort mission. So I looked at the mess on the floor and “Well, I’m not functioning anyway, so I might as well go through these papers and throw some stuff out.”
Going through clutter is very energy draining, so I was tearing paper as fast as I could (aka at a turtle’s pace, being sleep deprived and all). And then I found it. Among the papers I found a little horoscope magazine borrowed from my grandma many years ago. “Angels of Love – a powerful help in romance”. You had to look for you birthday to discover your Angel. I was born on May 27th.

27 – Rochel (69)
Abraços Paulo!
P.S.: “69″ still appears all the time and this morning it appeared again, it was the funniest so far, my facebook friends could not believe it. I had to mail some stuff in the afternoon, the name of the person who called my number was Angelica. When I got home I turned on the radio, I had just written about this coincidence when “Angel” by Aerosmith started playing. That’s why I’m here tonight, taking courage to press “Submit”
I know ..its very late to reply on this form. But m still doing so because of unknown resons.Angles..I really don’t have any idea about what they are? But from some.. time..I have felt something similer to that you have described in your writtings. I don’t know.. wheather..its just my imagination or its happening but still there is some force that is driving me,in a particular direction through people around me,books,newspaper,whatever i come in contact with. Whenever I stand still on a road.. that has diversion.. someone comes to my help.. and disappears..as soon as I start my journey.But I know.. that.. again when I will in same situation.. I will not be alone.
I am truly amazed, and looking forward to experiencing my own story of dear Angels to share with you all.:)
Today I feel sad, and overcome by a sadness for no single reason. I felt guided towards this page today, by a higher power. I do beleive in angels. Angels who come into your life in the form of humans, just at the right time like serendipity. I would like to feel my angel today.
Me too, to all that you said here my friend.
Years ago, my sister’s friend told me to specially pray for my guardian angel. I believe that I have a guardian angel as my parents and teachers told me so, but so far I never paid attention to the angel. Then I started praying for the angels and archangels. After a while, I began to feel their companion day by day. The very same friend then told me to pray more, this time I have to pray specially for my guardian angel. If I got lucky, the angel would introduce to me and tell me the name or the message.. So I started to pray every night at the same hour for weeks… One particular night, I haven’t finished saying my pray suddenly MY OWN MOUTH said: NOT NOW… I was startled like dead… My brain was still reciting the pray but my mouth was saying things I don’t mean to… I guess it was my guardian angel answered me that it was not an appropriate time to reveal the identity….. but this was enough for me that I can communicate with my guardian angel…
My experience with an Angel…
I was at a point in my life where I felt hopeless, I was going to comit suicide… and I felt like nothing was going to stop me.
I then receive a text message from my friend…I don’t quite remember the text but it made me cry…because I realized God had reached out to me someway.
Hi all. The only time I am almost sure I encountered an angel intimately (I probably have experienced their distinct protection at other times) was when I was in a dream state. I am a Christian and I believe it was a vision. It started with the dream I was in changing tone and a bright light appeared, at which I felt compelled to lay down asleep. Still in my dream I rememeber someone giving me a note and on it it told me of what I was expecting (positive things about a job offer). I was about to make a very important decision in Christian ministry. However on the other side of the paper when I turned it over it said ‘prepare for war’. I now know that it was a warning, unfortunetely I did not listen to the true message and I had great difficulty because of this.
A true angel is more of a warrior, a heart/spirit undeceived and with clear sight, unbiased by perception or the senses. A true angel is a stranger to doubt. A true angel can stand alone but longs for the unity of God, concerned by the passage of time but not overcome by it. In essense, an angel is not afraid of an expanding mind and deters from small minds.
You are an angel yourself. I really admire your courage.
HAPPY VALENTINE”S DAY TO ALL!
I encountered some very dark years in my early-mid twenties and ended up under psychiatric care, in and out of hospitals, taking different medications, feeling generally overwhelmed by everything that was presented to me all at once.
There was an angel (or two or three) in the psych ward that I remember very vividly and have trouble finding words to explain those encounters.
My troubles were rooted in various places, one of them having to do with my relationship with my mother. They (my family) didn’t know what to do with me during those difficult times and certainly didn’t always know what to say.
My mother picked me up from the hospital and we went to a diner for lunch. There was a family of four with two small children seated next to us, and my mother periodically chatted a bit to the young mother about the llitle ones. As we were finishing up our meals and the family got up to leave, the young mother stepped close to us and said to my mother that things have been very difficult lately but she felt guided to tell us that everything will be fine. And she reached to each of us one at a time and touched each of our hands.
A few hours prior to this lunch we were debating ‘delusions’ with my doctors during my discharge and my mother didn’t believe me that I felt I was recently touched by angels somehow.
Sometimes I feel them in my hearth,deep inside-like a small butterfly of inspiration..other times I can feel I can fly with their wings ..and sometimes I can touch them..in my drops..falling down,because of our human “No mercy” ,cruels ,cry..http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48XNSty-noQ&feature=related
The video you shared here is wonderful. I found myself watching the entire collection! Bravo and thank you..
I just completed reading Valkyries and what a wonderful surprise it was. Your words have always resonated with me and my life experiences but I never knew you had written about angels. I work with the angelic realm, for self healing and healing others. More and more, in spite of the pain and suffering of our world, I am awed by how we are all from the same consciousness and each step we take in the light, we shift the energies and grow positivity.
I believe in angels….and I can feel them when they are with me. Even in time of despair, when they are around (I don’t really know how many I have but I believe there may be a team who each come to me for specific reasons..or one really hard working angel!!!). I have one soul guardian. I do not know but dont mind not knowing. The angels help open me to the universe…they help me to believe in things greater than I know at this time..they bring me patience and love…. My angel(s) are so important to me…they sooth me….they always answer some how some way…I found this site today…my angel guided me here..today……and I am forever greatful.
My angels are in forms of people and sometimes it is also in me.
They speak through the words of my mother and father ( my loved ones),
the love i feel from my atmosphere/Nature has the biggest love.
I have seen my angel through smiles and love, sometimes i feel so lost i ask god what he has in store for me?
Then i look up at the star (this one star i always see) and i feel the wind blowing strong against my skin, there i feel the response of something greater then me.
sometimes i feel when i am so silent and i can hear my heart beats, the rhythm of nature follows my heartbeat even the power of how it beats.
I have felt many things in my life but i fear to give myself in because i may never be the same again. Even at times my feelings are so strong i believe if i don’t be careful the person next to me will feel the same too.
I believe angels are everywhere, they speak through strangers and loved ones but the feeling of the energy is so strong that you know that your never alone.
Listen to yourself, Because you speak to yourself,
i feel you are your protector and also you can be your biggest enemy.
I just felt like i had to say something. :)
I know this thing can do everybody! There is just one comment: you should believe in it.It’s the answer for everything! When you really have no idea what to do or need advise or may be help, close your eyes and try to see and listen to your angel! Be patient, you shouldn’t make him answer your question! Believe him, answer can come little later, don’t care, make sure your angel will help you! (At first it’s not easy to see him, there is one rule: follow your heart, it shows you what you want to see! It really works, because we’re blessed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have many stories but the one that sticks the most, its one about 8 yrs ago, i was walking in a little town called san quintin, b.c. in mexico, towards my hotel, and it was pitch black, i crossed a little bridge, and I was feeling a little scared, I have to admit, but then I felt a warm feeling, and I wasnt scared anymore, I felt protected, and kept on walking and I know that my angels where putting light in my way.
Best wishes for a great year and god bless you all.
Since a very young age being brought up in Sao Paulo by a non religious family I felt a strong presence always with me specially during the tough times. I feel this presence itensifies during meditation and when I am singing and playing the guitar. I know that some of the songs I have instantly written have come through my angel. I dont need to explain or analyse I know in my heart and soul that my angel is always with me. I show him my love and gratitude everyday. When life sends me its blows my angel helps me learn the lesson
I blessed to feel his presence every day

I manifested my husband with the big help of angels on an angel workshop 2 years ago.
I was tired of all the wrong guys, troubled relationships and I felt ready for marriage. So I said on a christmas angel workshop (23th December 2007): “By march 2008 I am in a serious relationship with my future husband, who is ment for me from God, and with whom I will live together in love, respect and wealth, until death do us part.” Even though no significant man was in my life than- my husband and I felt our first sparks- soon after new year’s eve! (I knew him before), and by march I truely was in a serious reltionship with him! :)) Now, 2 years later- we are married and are expecting a child together! :)
I believe in angels very much, because my heart stopped for a second during my birth, and I remember seeing a tunnel, and later an angel rescued me from hurting myself while jumping down from high stairs- I felt a hand grabbed me by my dress and gently put me down on the last stair. It was a miracle, and so is my marriage, and our baby. THANK YOU ANGELS; I FEEL YOU!!!!!
On 21st night ,after i wrote on this blog about my Angel called Happiness, I was in my hotel Holiday Inn room in chicago and I woke up in the middle of the night with a feeling that somebody or something was stoking my lower back..There was no scare just a loving feeling..woke up and turned and there was nobody..!!
Has to be my Angel, cause i had gone to sleep with a feeling that my Lower back was hurting…And there was no hurt anymore.
Yes angels do exist, thou iv been trying and have not able to see them as yet..!!Mine introduced himself as “Happiness”, maybe the emotion predominantly not much in abundance in my life!!! i Cant see it, but i can feel its a male, fair, with blonde curls with a fab body, and wings ofcourse..sometimes i dont know whether its my imagination or hes for real.!! But in my deepest dispair he guides me and also helps me find a way out…and am sure as more time goes by, my comapanionship with him will bring me more happiness.!!
Hi all!
What a wonderful discussion about angels! Thank you all! I have not had encounters like many of you just yet. I say yet because I have for a few years now felt like being on a wonderful spiritual journey within myself. I feel it continuing.
It all started during a very difficult time in my life, which I can see from reading your words is quite ordinary. I guess a situation that is hard will sharpen our senses and that is when we become receptive of things we haven’t recognized before. I had an experience that I called enlightenment, and that was the starting point of my journey. I started to see some people shining like from within, I call them carriers of the light. Like they would be wearing their heart on the outside of their body, that strong was the love that they reflected – and I knew that love was for me, and it healed me in that time of agony.
I am reading at the moment a book that is all about angels, and I’d like to recommend it to all of you: It is Lorna Byrne’s Angels in my hair. I believe many of you can recognize the situations described, others, much like myself, might find a lot of strength from reading it.
Love to you all.
Hallo Mr. Coelho,
I don´nt know if you are still interrested in stories and our opinion aubout angels.
I didn´t believe in angels before they gave me one big sign and many other followed. Here is my rather dramatic experience:
I live in Germany and was a wild teenage girl hitchhiking through the whole country. When I was 19 I started on a journey from Köln to Hannover with no money at all.
I still can´t believe what happened next. A car pulled up with a strong and rather quiet man inside. He didn´say much at all and I started feeling pretty uneasy. All of a sudden he started to ask me if I wasn´t scared and stuff like that. When I answered with no he described what ugly things he could do with me and that he knows a girl wich was raped a few days ago and that nobody could stop him from doing the same with me.
I was horrorfied and prayed: God if you really do exist than Please Help!
All of a sudden my emotional situation changed and I felt a strong power and light in me and heard my self talking the following:
“You may can harm this body and even kill it. But you can never touch my soul! And if you try anything to do it you will get more pain than you can imagine not only in this lifetime but in many that will follow. Iam not alone sitting next to you. My angels are with me and know how to protect me.”
I actually couldn´t believe in what I was just saying and felt this strong power all around me.
The man must have felt it too because he turned his face towards me and I could see a big scar covering his left face. He said that we are driving into the opposite direction and that I should´n t be scared, he changed his mind. He will bring me to the next petrol station on the autobahn and I have to hitchhike back. Before I got out of the car he gave me a big knife wich he must have had in his left hand while we where driving. He left with the words: ” And now get quickly out of here before I change my mind”
I got out and cried for a while knowing that a unknown power of angels have probably saved my life.
This was my first encounter with angels. And they allways come and help when I ask them. I am a painter and one day I will paint a series about them.
Lots of love and thank you for your awesome books!
Would be nice to hear from you!
Merry Christmas and a wonderfull new year!

Hello Paolo!
I love your books.Even if read it third time I always find something new for me.
I am from Ukraine and dont know english very well(so sorry about mistakes)About angels…I write this last year, it look better on ukraine but I translate it on english:
I sit on window sills and waiting… Waiting for something wonderful – the rest. It hasnt been in my heart soo long .. I’m waiting that something from this chaos will appear… Yes from it appear Universe… it came with nothing … so I cant do this… Too many noise and uncertainty .. If feel your person here. You would sit opposite me and we would be silent .. The night continued and we just have sat and silent … Do you know that you are my angel?? That you exactly my??? Of course, you know … How the messenger of God can not know about this .. Forgive you for that … stupid questions. I just wish that you were honest with me. I want to be that child, what would you supervised and looked after. Want that you feel yourself more that just angel… I want that you feel that I am in your hands and you in my … Hugs me, take me by the shoulders and we will continue the way what we have overcome together …..
I always believed and felt the presence of God and angels in my life. However, a few days ago, I asked with all my faith and strength for a sign, that I was in the right path or if not, of what I shoud do. I waited, conscious and aware of all around me and never got any signs. Its happened to me a few times before and it really tests my faith and makes me feel so very alone and lost at times…
Right now an angel is speaking these words
This blog is me
I am here
oh yes, I absolutely believe in them.I have invoked for angels a couple of times and asked them to make their presence felt through fragrance. It’s mostly happened that there has been an overwhelming smell of rose, lavender flooding through the entire room. I have felt warm in their presence. They feel feathery if you pass your fingers through them. i saw an angel too, like a bolt of light across the sky once:D
I went to Wien three years ago. It was a sad journey because I told goodbye to my love. When I was coming back home I felt sad as I never felt before: I was unable to know what to do, how to follow my way. i was at the airplane crying not paying attention to anyone, no matter that the plane was crowdy and that the passengers next to be were seeing that I was crying. Suddenly, the man sitted at my right sked me something sbut the book I was reading. I answered and then we began a conversation about life, love and beliefs. i am not a person that opens easily with strangers. But I really felt that I could trust in that person. The journey, that at first was unbearable for me became a happy and pleasant time. That man made mr some reflections that made me feel calm, in peace. When we take off in Munich, that was rhe middle of the journey, I did not know how to react, what to say. He then told me goodbye in one of the most beautiful sentences I never heard. He told me that human beings do not meet only once in life. That we always have the oportunity to meet us at least twice and tht depending the way the first time was, it would be the second. We told each other goodbye and I came back home feeling myself in peace. I always have thought that this man is my angel and that came to me in one of the most desperate moments in my life to give me hope and peace.
Angels are real
Dear Paulo and friends,
i believe strongly in angels, i always did. Not fanatically nor influensed by church or anything like that.
Not long time ago i felt the presence and i know it might seem odd
or many of of you you will not believe me. I can totaly understand because i am also suspicious and try to reason everything but it is true.
I was very sad because i went through i very difficult situation and all of the sudden when i was in my room praying to God I asked from my guardian angel, if he could hear me to do something to prove me he was there, share my pain.
Instantly i felt that someone was grapping my right hand firmly, i felt a warmth from my hand heading to all my body. After that i felt lighter as someone lifted a burden and i fell asleep.
During my sleep i felt a presence as someone was standing near me.
The next day i when woke up believe it or not i found a white feather.
At this moment i want to say that we, and noone neighbour had a bird, it was night, winter and so i had no window open during night.
Besides never again before or after i found a thing like that.
At that moment i realised that the presence was real, he wanted me to know for sure that he was there.
I was very sceptic at first but something else happened, a few months later as i paint from to time i desided to draw an angel. I saw a beautifull picture of an angel from behind and i begun to draw. A few days later when i finished the angel i show it to my brother’s wife who is scepptic also, when accidentally turned over the page after the one i painted she saw a picture with formed angel’s figures the face the arms, the whole body as someone had carved them lightly but with the features defined grasping a sword in his right hand.
I couldn’t believe it she asked if i had made any other drawing and placed it in a way that passed to paper. I said no because i didin’t have any picture of the angel from the face and i couldn’t do it myself. Besides i used water colors not carve, and mostly it was on another page not the page i was painting.
Then i decided to draw the lines that were defined and not intervene any further, that picture i have it untill now, all these happened almost 7 years ago.
I am not pursuing to convice you, besides i know it is very difficult to understand or to believe, i am only say my personal experience.
When I was about 8 years old I saw something that on till today I’ve been not been able to place and find an explanation for it.
I was sleeping and all of the sudden I woke up, when I looked at the bed where my little sister was sleeping I saw a little glowing “fairy” maybe wings that I don’t recall 100 %(don’t know if it was a fairy but it looked very similar to it , also it had the size of a 3-year old child) looking at me at the end of her bed. It rised up from her bed just above my head and immediately after it reached my head it was sitting back on the end of the bed. It did that a couple of times. Since I was litlle I got very scared because I never saw anything like that and hide myself under my sheets. My mother heard me shaking my teeth untill her bedroom. She came checken up on me and I told her I was to afraid to sleep in my bed because something was watching me and she took me with her in bed between her and my father. The whole night I saw 3-dimensional butterflies and flowers, like holograms floating around me.
Perhaps it was my phantasy taking a walk with reality but it made a big impression on me and on till today I remember it like it was yesterday. Does anyone has an idea what it could have been?
fantasy is mere reality that we opress and hide in our Unconsciousness…
That was a lovely story : ) I think it was an elemental – apparently children can see them easily…
The butterflies and flowers were blessing you : )
Best wishes,
Elizabeth
