Every person has his own guardian angel.
His duty is to invisibly help, support, protect from troubles and misfortunes. These invisible entities accompany us all our lives, walk alongside us and are ready to come to the rescue at any moment, even, it would seem, when there is no way out, to set us on the right path and solve any problems. Through signs and symbols, angels give signals to a person, warn about dangers, and help find the right solution. If you do not feel help, you are unlucky, you have problems with health, finances, personal life, etc., perhaps you have lost touch with your heavenly patron . To restore it, you need to turn to the angel, but to do this you need to find out who he is.
Why are we given a Guardian Angel?
You have probably felt an invisible assistant next to you more than once, but you just didn’t know who he was. Orthodox people have always believed in the existence of a patron saint who is always nearby, they prayed to him, and thanked him for his help.
Does everyone have a guardian angel?
Every person has a guardian angel, regardless of faith, behavior, or character. Even criminals and atheists are not without invisible defenders, only they have very weak ones.
You can call your patron by name, talk to him, consult with him, you can even call your assistant in order to more significantly feel his protection. Most often they are represented as winged creatures. They really need wings to shelter a person from adversity and misfortune.
After communication, do not forget to thank your patron so that he gains greater strength, believe in him, talk to him more often.
Who is he, our Guardian Angel?
This is a good essence, a spirit, gifted with feelings and reason, but does not have a body like people.
He can incarnate for a short period of time in any physical form, act through other people, even animals.
Often dogs or cats woke up their owners, forcing them to leave the house before some disaster.
Remember the times when you were on the verge of death, but unexpectedly received miraculous salvation.
The invisible guard took care of this. Or life collapsed, everything was so bad, and then a lot was resolved in your favor. This is also his concern.
Modern people have less faith in their patrons, thinking that their own intuition or other feelings help them. Think as much as you want about your greatness, but don’t forget who gave it to you.
Can there be several patrons at once?
It is not always the case that there is only one guardian angel per person.
Situations in life can be very different. In especially difficult moments, several winged messengers of heaven come to the rescue.
Also, those who lead a correct lifestyle, do good deeds, attend temple, and do not hold evil have more than one guardian.
Angels love such people and especially favor them. Therefore, if you want to have several heavenly patrons, reconsider your lifestyle, be kinder and more responsive to others.
How to recognize your defender?
The Guardian Angel accompanies us from the very minute of birth, so we can recognize him by his date of birth. How to do it?
Calculate your number
Add up all the numbers of your birthday, then get a single digit number. For example, if you were born on December 24, 1987, then add the numbers: 2,4,1,2, 1,9,8,7= 34.
Then add these numbers and you get 7. The number “7” is odd, that is, your patron is female. Even numbers indicate male patrons.
Decoding the number
Next, find your number in the list below in order to get to know your angel better, understand his behavioral traits, as well as his characteristic features:
1 – Holy angel. This is the fastest defender, rushing to help even before he is asked for help.
2 – The Bright Angel (Angel of Light) most often appears in a dream. Angels of light leave moles on their charges, often on the face.
3 – The air angel accompanies people who are ready to take risks and all sorts of adventures. You can feel it by the fluttering of its wings when it gets close.
4 – A wise angel sends tips and correct decisions to his wards, which has a positive effect on a person’s intellect, as well as his career.
5 – A metal angel helps a person live a long life. He gets nourishment from tears, so he always rushes to help when the ward sheds tears, simply cries.
6 – Rainbow angel. His contact with a person is established through creative energy. It helps to discover and then reveal a person’s artistic abilities, a unique view of the world.
7 – The energy angel is the most touchy and therefore needs constant gratitude. The patron does not tolerate rude words, as well as disdainful attitude towards his merits.
8 – Merciful angel. This is the personification of the souls of deceased ancestors. He cares with great attention, but feels the need for constant remembrance of him.
9 – A warm angel helps the client find harmony with the world and understand the essence of things. Angels of Warmth most often incarnate in animals.
Now you know the characteristics of your Guardian Angel, try to establish a strong connection with him, do not ignore his character.
Guardian Angel Age
In addition to character, defenders have age. How to find out age?
Add 4 more to your birth number (this is a sacred number). For those born on the 30th, this is 30+4=34 years, that is, your guardian angel is a woman aged 34 years.
Knowing your age makes it possible to communicate and maintain connections even more effectively.
Do angels have an age and how to determine it
An interesting feature is that our ethereal patrons always have the same age. It does not change throughout our lives.
It is easy to find out the age of a guardian angel by the day and month of our birth.
This is done through simple mathematical calculations.
Step 1: Convert the day and month of your birth into numeric format. For example, June 11 = 11.06
Step 2. Add up all the numbers and find out the angelic age. In this case, 1+1+6=8 years.
Is it possible to see your guardian angel?
To contact the client and convey information, our defenders use signs. After all, only with the help of special signs can our guard communicate with his charges.
How to choose a time
But people can establish a connection with their patron themselves and contact him at any time. How to do it:
- Choose a time when no one will disturb you and your angel. You can find time in the morning at dawn or before bed.
- Create a comfortable and cozy environment. You can light a night light or a candle, turn on quiet music.
- Place pillows under your back , sit comfortably, straighten your back. The main thing is to relax your body, don’t slouch, don’t bend over.
- Closing your eyes, take a deep breath , imagine that roots are unraveling from your feet, and you are in an egg-shaped shell, from which comes a golden glow. Gold is the most favorite color for angels.
- Mentally invite your protector to be with you in this beautiful, comfortable environment. If an angel descends to you, you will feel a pleasant warmth or a light breeze. Ask him to cover you with his wings, feel his touch.
How to talk to an angel
- Remember this feeling in order to reproduce it again and again. Ask for the angel's name.
- Calling him by name, thank him from the bottom of your heart for always being there for you. If you need help, ask for it, tell us about your plans, about the goal you are going towards. Always remember: he will help fulfill only good intentions.
- Just don’t keep it near you for a long time , it’s better to do the same next time.
- Stretch from the heart, open your eyes. You will immediately notice that life has become easier, because you have such a good helper nearby.
Now you know how to meet an angel.
Don't lose touch with him, thank him often. Gratitude gives him the energy to help even more, to protect him from any evil. If you ask for something, do not expect instant fulfillment of your desire. The patron himself knows when to fulfill it so that it is better for you.
Intercessor icon and prayer
The image of a winged heavenly intercessor helps to focus on the image. It is easier for people to concentrate their thoughts when they see an object with which they communicate, even in inanimate form. A simple prayer to the guardian angel: “I turn to you, my guardian angel. I ask you to hear my request and help me. From birth you walk with me along the path of life. I have confidence in you and now I need your help.” Then, on paper, mentally or out loud, describe a request or situation in which you need help.
It is strictly forbidden to perform magical rituals to call angelic spirits, as a demon helper may come and be capable of harm. Divine spiritual mentors cannot be approached with demands for revenge on the offender, killing an enemy, achieving a high position, obtaining financial gain, taking possession of someone else's property, or harming another. For such requests, the good angel leaves his charge, and from a successful person he turns into a loser.
How to see the signs by the hour
The patron can give signs by the hour. Why by the hour? Because time is the most magical phenomenon. A person has no power over it; it cannot be stopped, changed, or reversed.
Guardian Angel watches, what are they? These are repeating numbers. Have you noticed such a strange coincidence when the clock showed such numbers as 11:11 or 22:22?
Perhaps your gaze always stops at the same number, be it on a watch or a car license plate. What do they mean:
0 - alone, zero means little, but in conjunction with other numbers it acquires significant meaning. For a person, this is a harbinger of the end of the black streak. 1 – you have stopped developing, you are focused only on yourself. 2 – perhaps you have a dual nature, it’s time to figure it out. Also, 2 indicates a strong belief in one’s abilities or high self-esteem. 3 – a call to enjoy life, to be able to appreciate what you have. 4 – stop hanging in the clouds, it’s time to get back on your feet. 5 – means frivolity, the desire to always travel. We need to stop so as not to get into trouble. 6 – will help avoid quarrels. This is advice: devote more time to your family and friends. 7 – it’s time to think about your spiritual development. 8 – it’s time to make a smooth transition from plans to deliberate actions. 9 – it’s time to become less selfish, to think about whether you are following your own path.
How to understand that an angel is next to you?
As you already know, angels are incorporeal, so we cannot see or hear them. But angels can be felt. In addition, they give signals about their presence.
Unfortunately (or fortunately?), our custodians cannot contact us directly. But, as they say, “he who has ears, let him hear.” Therefore, pay attention to everything unusual that happens around you.
What is meant? These are unexpected and unusual sounds, sunbeams, an unexpected elation or, conversely, an unexpected depressed mood.
All this indicates that an angel has descended to you to convey some important information.
Also, unexpectedly arising obsessive thoughts and ideas can be considered evidence of the presence of a guardian angel. After all, it has happened to everyone that suddenly an idea appears that completely captures all attention.
The guardian can also communicate his presence in dreams. Usually a person does not remember the details of such a dream. Just a feeling of happiness and bliss.
ON A NOTE. If it is unclear where white feathers and fluff appear around you, this is also evidence of the recent presence of a guardian angel.
An angel can give signs through angelic numerology, that is, one can learn about his presence from constantly repeating numbers on watches, license plates of cars, houses, etc.
What do repeating numbers on a clock mean?

Patron saint named
Angel Day in the Orthodox Church is highly valued, because it is the day of the heavenly intercessor, a saint before a person, whose name is given to a Christian. How to correctly identify your Orthodox patron saint? As a rule, the day of the heavenly patron is the next day of celebration of the saint whose name the person bears. This is done because the day of some saints is celebrated several times a year.
Let's take an example: for Anna, who was born on November 20, Guardian Angel Day will be celebrated on December 3, the closest day when Saint Anna of Persia is remembered.
To determine the name of your heavenly patron, use the Orthodox calendar. All the birthdays of the saints are written in it.
And if your name is not in the calendar of the Orthodox calendar, then at baptism a name is always chosen for a person that is very close in sound to yours. Let's give some examples:
- Zhanna - Joanna;
- Dina - Evdokia;
- Angelika - Angelina;
- Lily - Leah;
- Milana - Milica;
Also in the church there are traditional other sounds of names. Example: Victoria - Nika, Svetlana - Fotinia, etc.

The simplest prayer with which you can turn to your Protector:
“Pray to God for me, holy servant of God (name), as I diligently resort to you, a quick helper and prayer book for my soul.”
May the Lord protect you!
Prayer to the protector
A daily prayer addressed to an angel is one of the important prayers.
Help from a protector will become even more significant if you say prayer words daily. The prayer should begin and end with thanksgiving to the defender for listening, protecting, helping.
Then you can ask for success in all righteous deeds of the coming day, ask for cheerfulness and health for yourself and your loved ones. If you want to pray at night, then do it. You can pray out loud or mentally at any time, but sincerely, with an open soul.
Birthday prayer
Be sure to pray to the Angel on your birthday, thank him for accompanying you and protecting you throughout your life. An icon of your patron, in front of which you will pray, should be in the home of every Christian.
Prayer:
“Oh, holy angel, interceding before our Creator for my soul, my body and my life! Do not leave me and do not depart from me for all my sins. I ask you, do not let the evil demon take possession of my soul and my body. Strengthen my soul and direct it to the true path. I ask you, angel of God and guardian of my soul, forgive me all the sins with which I have offended you throughout my unrighteous life. Forgive all my sins that I committed on the past day, and protect me on the new day. Save my soul from various temptations, so that I do not anger our Creator. I ask you, pray for me before our Creator, so that His mercy and peace of mind may come to me. Amen".
How to determine the element of an angel?
The element of your heavenly protector can be recognized by the second digit of your birthday (for example, 01, 05, 12, 18, etc.).
Below we have presented a transcript from which you can find out which element patronizes you.
- 0 – fire. You are your angel's favorite. He does everything possible for you and protects you from even the most minor adversities.
- 1 – holiness. Patronizes those who have problems with willpower and spirit. He loves to help until the end and never leaves his ward.
- 2 – light. More often than other guardians, he contacts his ward. He does this through the language of numbers, symbols and dreams. They say that moles are marks from the kisses of a guardian angel.
- 3 – air. It reveals its presence with a rustling sound, a barely perceptible breath. He may go away, but returns if you earnestly pray to him about it.
- 4 – wisdom. Instructs and directs on the true path. Makes you wiser.
- 5 – metal. Helps the strong, brave and daring.
- 6 – rainbow. Loves creative individuals who are open to the world, but slightly melancholic and prone to mood swings. Gives them peace and joy.
- 7 – energy. He has a lively character, but at the same time, he is very touchy.
- 8 – native blood. No need to be scared. This guardian angel is closest to you, because this is one of the deceased relatives. The bonds of blood are so strong that the ward of such a guardian angel is as if behind a stone wall.
- 9 – tenderness. Affectionate and gentle guardian. He guides gently, tries to be as kind as possible to his person.
The only one for life
Is it possible to identify a guardian angel and then discover that he is not alone? Can. But only if we are talking about a highly spiritual, very pure soul person. According to Orthodoxy, such a person can have up to nine defenders; the holier the person, the more defenders. Saint Nicholas had 27 of them.
Dark people have the worst situation with Guardians by birth. Their envoys may leave altogether. Then it will be very difficult to live and die - unless you correct the situation with good deeds. And repentance.
How many angels does a person have according to Orthodoxy?
Many people are concerned about the question of how many angels a person has. It is believed that there is one, but this is not so. The number of patrons depends on the level of spirituality. Possibly from one to nine angels.
The more patrons a person has, the luckier and happier he is. Solving problems and achieving goals is easy. Those people who are abandoned by angels are called losers. But they come back, live according to your conscience, do good and do not expect gratitude for it. Read a prayer appeal to your guardian angel to attract the attention of divine forces.
Everyone should know how to establish contact with their God-given personal guardian. With the help of simple manipulations it is possible to find out the name, age, character and gender of your own patron. He may not be alone.
