Archangel Michael is the representative of the struggle against the forces of evil, which continues until the end of the world. He is the main enemy of Satan and the protector of believers. In the celebrated and oft-quoted Revelation of St. John the Apostle, a fierce struggle is waged against the red dragon (the color of the blood violently shed in human history), and in this battle he defends a woman and her unborn son, who represent God's people and the Church in which Christ is ever present.
Saint Michael the Archangel, right after God himself and the Virgin Mary, is the third being most often addressed in prayer. We trust him so much and are confident in his enormous strength. Especially today, when the devil is on the threshold of each of us, we need to turn even more to his persecutor and our protector. Satan's traps are set at every step in modern human society, and even the Church itself, under the influence of the heresy of modernism, is experiencing perhaps the most severe crisis of doctrine and shepherds in history. The Church does not fulfill its role, instead of leading to salvation, it directs believers in a completely opposite direction and discredits itself even in the eyes of non-believers.
The actions and words of the Holy Archangel Michael show us that the admirer and humble servant of God is not a weakling or a poor fellow, although he entrusts his entire will and life to the hands and will of others.
The other day we celebrated the appearance of the Holy Archangel Michael. This happened in 492 on Mount Gargano in Italy. His second holiday is September 29, when we celebrate the day of the three archangels (Michael, Gabriel and Raphael).
Illustrious Apparition
It was 490 AD when Elvio Emanuele, the owner of Monte Gargano, lost the best bull from his herd and found him in an inaccessible cave. When the man realized that he could not get the bull out of there, he decided that he would shoot him with an arrow from his bow. But the arrow, instead of hitting the bull, turned and pierced the shooter in the eye. The wounded owner turned to the bishop in Siponte (modern Manfredonia) and told him about the miracle. The prelate declared three days of prayer and repentance. Three days later, the Archangel Michael appeared at the entrance to the cave and called for its consecration as a place of God.
The bishop did not listen to the archangel's call, because the pagan cult was still being practiced on the mountain. Two years later, Siponto was captured by the barbarian Odoacar, who we know from history books. In this difficult situation, the bishop and the faithful united in prayer. Archangel Michael appeared to the bishop and promised him victory. During the battle, a strong storm actually arose, and sand and hail covered the barbarians so that they began to flee. The whole city, together with the bishop, ascended the mountain in a thanksgiving procession. After this, Michael appeared again. A red altar with a crystal cross was found in the cave.
Bishop Laurentius ordered to build a temple dedicated to St. Michael in front of the entrance to the cave, and the cave itself is called the Celestial Basilica. The town of Monte San Angelo Gargano grew up around it. The Holy Cave became one of the most visited places of pilgrimage in the Christian world.

Neon blue space
Larisa: Do you have an understanding of what kind of space this is? Is this the place where you can get answers to your questions?
Alena: I quickly moved into a neon blue space. They told me that they were ready to answer our questions. But I will still continue to be raised for some time.
Larisa: If you want, you can allow yourself to be raised to the point where you feel that you are ready to answer questions.
Alena: I hear a small chime, similar to the chime of a large number of small bells. This ringing is getting stronger. They tell me that we are all welcome too.
Larisa: We are very happy!
Alena: They tell me that they are glad to see and hear us all the time. They are ready to make close contact. We are glad that we do not forget about them and pay special respect to this research.
Larisa: Are you ready to receive information?
Alena: Yes. It feels like they say “the kingdom of heaven.” There are some with wings, and with small wings, something like that. It’s so light and airy.
Larisa: Then ask to show you what is relevant to our topic today, to the Army of Light and Archangel Michael.
Alena: They tell me, “We are all in the Army of Light. We all serve you, and we all serve Archangel Michael. He's our boss. Our service goes to you and, let’s say, to the planetary forces. To all those forces that do good.”
Larisa: “We are all” – who is this? Angels, or all energies in general?
Alena: Do you mean those who greet?
Larisa: Yes. You say "we all serve", who are they?
Alena: There are Angels and Archangels, and there are also some entities of a higher order that are a kind of connecting link. They tell me that there are a lot of them.
Inside, they are also divided into certain tasks and goals. Although they can change places, perform tasks related to planetary scales and tasks related to the Universe.
Mutiny of Angels
So what is Michael's story? In the beginning, God created angels, along with the rest of the world. All angels were at first holy and blessed, but they had to prove their goodness and thus deserve the special graces that God bestowed on the angels. They had to choose - either to be with God or to be against him. We do not know what exactly the test of the angels was. There are logical assumptions that God revealed to the angels the secret of the Incarnation of his Son. But when this secret was revealed to the angels, one part opposed the Son of God and did not want to bow before him. These rebellious angels considered his human nature too pitiful for God to associate with him and thereby exalt him above them.
So they opposed God. The Plan of Incarnation seemed unworthy to them in their pride, so they dared to neglect the will of the Almighty. Lucifer himself said the famous words: “I will not serve!” — thereby voluntarily and forever leaving the path of truth, justice and love.
On the contrary, the wise Michael answered: “Who is like God?” - and thus directly followed truth, justice and love, and also pointed out the complete madness of Lucifer, who set out on the path of lies, death and disappointment. Thus Michael clearly expressed that serving God, with whom nothing is comparable, is not only the duty of all creatures, but also an endless joy.

The battle has begun in the sky
Saint John in the book of Revelation describes the following events as follows: “And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought against them, but they did not stand, and there was no longer room for them in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that ancient serpent, called the devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world, he was cast out to the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven: Now has come the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God and the power of His Christ, because the slanderer of our brethren is cast out, who slandered them before our God day and night. They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb...” (Rev. 12:7-11).
Saint Peter writes about this: “For if God did not spare the angels who sinned, but bound them in chains of hellish darkness, He delivered them over to judgment to be punished” (2 Peter 2:4).
And St. Jude: “Also the angels who did not maintain their high position, but left their appointed place, are kept in eternal chains in darkness until the Day of Judgment” (Jude 6).
Dante in the Divine Comedy placed Lucifer at the very bottom of hell as cast down to earth, where a huge crater was formed.
In the ranks of the holy angels, Archangel Michael stands out as the victorious champion of God and his kingdom. The archangel's name, meaning "Who is like God," is also his holy motto. God gives him the power to destroy his enemies. Therefore St. Michael is also a special defender of the Church and an outstanding helper of Christians who are fighting a seemingly unequal battle in a world hostile to God, resisting thousands of different internal and external attacks on their own faith and fidelity to the law of God.

Example of St. Archangel Michael
The actions and words of the Holy Archangel Michael show us that the admirer and humble servant of God is not a weakling or a poor fellow, although he entrusts his entire will and life to the hands and will of others. A person devoted to God has strength and power precisely because he does not rely on his own abilities and powers, but trusts his existence and future to the hands, will and power of a being who stands high above him and exceeds him in an indescribable and unmeasurable way.
On the contrary, the decision to serve its Creator is a sign of intelligence, strength and respect for truth, that is, for the fact that a creation without its Creator would not only simply not exist in this world, but without his help it would be incapable of the smallest worthy deed. Pride and boasting of one's own actions are a sign of foolishness, but open protest against God, without whom the rebel would never have seen the light of the world, is such a great neglect that it rightly deserves the punishment that befell the fallen angels. And they acted exactly the opposite of what the holy and good admirer of God, the Archangel Michael, did.
Saint Michael is the patron saint of fencers, jewelers, pharmacists, coopers, and in modern times, radiologists and police officers. As protector of the Church, Michael rules from the top of the City of Angels in Rome, which is known in history as the fortress of the popes. He is depicted wearing armor when he defeats Satan. Many times in the past he appeared to people here on earth.

Archangel Michael is known primarily as a great commander, archangel. He is the conqueror of Satan himself, he is the great prince who stands for the sons of the Jewish people. According to legend, he saves Abraham from the fiery furnace, and Isaac from Abraham’s knife. It is he who leads the people through the desert to the promised land, and he who gives Moses the tablets of the Law. He is called the keeper of the magical words with which heaven and earth were created. He was seen at the gates of heaven with a fiery sword, and it was he who carried the body of the deceased Mother of God to heaven.
Several holidays are dedicated to Archangel Michael. The main and oldest of them is celebrated on November 21. It was established in 363 by the Council of Laodicea, which recognized the doctrine of angels as creators and rulers of the world as heresy, but preserved their cult. Officially, the holiday is called the Council of the Archangel Michael and other disembodied Heavenly powers. That is, angels. Therefore, to begin with, it is worth saying a few words about who angels are.
John of Damascus defines: “An angel is an entity endowed with intelligence, always moving, possessing free will, incorporeal, serving God, and by grace having received immortality for its nature.” The angelic doctor Thomas Aquinas elaborates: “God rules the corporeal world through angels.” “They differ from Divine energies,” explains Alexey Losev, “in that they are created, that is, substantially other-existent, while Divine energies are substantially inseparable from God himself and therefore are God himself. Ethereal forces, as the idea of all further otherness, comprehend and shape all otherness, and therefore the doctrine of the Guardian Angel is a completely elementary dialectical necessity. Not only man, but everything that exists in the world, every smallest grain of sand has its own guardian angel.”
Losev assures that such mental structures as Kant’s “category”, Hegel’s “concept”, Husserl’s “eidos”, Cohen and Natorp’s “hypothesis” are “only internally empty angelology. These structures are undoubtedly intelligent, ethereal; they comprehend and shape all existence and in this sense are its “guardians.” But still, an angel is not just a diagram, it is a being that comprehends and thus shapes the sphere of existence under its jurisdiction: a mosquito, citizen Medvedev, a variety of wheat, a star, a state or some bank. An angel is the living meaning of things. He himself is incorporeal, living outside of space and time. But it can appear in our corporeal world, as, for example, the same Michael appeared to the priest Archippus in Khonech and, with a blow of his rod, diverted the seething stream from his temple. You can even touch an angel, just as Jacob felt him, struggling with the unknown in a dream and receiving a leg injury as a result of the fight.
How do ethereal beings operate in our 3D world? Aquinas writes: “The angel comes into contact with a given place solely through his power. Therefore, the angel’s movements come down to the sequential application of his force to different points.” And he clarifies: “The angel moves in discontinuous time. He may appear here and there, and there will be no time gap between these points. The beginning and end of an angel’s movement cannot be called two moments, between which there is a time interval; in the same way, it cannot be said that the beginning of the movement covers a period of time ending with the instant of the end of the movement. The beginning is one moment, and the end is another. There is no time between them at all. You can say that an angel moves through time, but not in the same way as a body moves.”
The author of the theory of morphogenic fields, Rupert Sheldrake, believes that Thomas's idea of \u200b\u200bthe movement of angels refers to quantum physics: “The photon is in one place at the moment when, for example, light comes from the Sun, and in another place at the moment when sunlight comes into contact with anything on Earth. The time interval between these moments is about eight minutes. Thus, we can attribute speed to light. But according to the theory of relativity - and this was one of Einstein's starting points - from the point of view of the photon itself there is no time expenditure. There is an instantaneous connection between the light coming from the sun and the light coming into contact with an earthly object. The photon does not age” (more details here).
As we see, modern ideas about the movement of quantum particles have the same mental roots as the Thomist idea of the movement of angels. In modern science fiction this seems to be called "null transport". Be that as it may, angels, who are often described by spirit seers as beings of light, may well be of a wave-particle nature. They are incorporeal, like waves propagating in some angelic field, and they are corporeal, since they appear to man in the material world. But this is just a special physicality. Perhaps it is best to call it virtual. And turn on the TV. The plots with which it is filled, of course, were created by angels placed in the service of propaganda. Media is one of the most visible areas of their activity today. The point is not that some Konstantin Ernst is an angel. But who will argue with the fact that there is a reliable guardian angel behind him?
Let's go back to Heaven. Dionysius the Areopagite, whose taxonomy of angels is considered classic, distinguishes three tripartite orders of the hierarchy of heavenly entities. In descending order of proximity to God, these are, firstly, Seraphim, Cherubim and Thrones. Secondly, Dominance, Strength and Authority. Thirdly, the Principalities, Archangels and Angels. Nine angelic ranks. Michael - Archangel. That is, it belongs to the lower, third hierarchy of angelic ranks. However, he managed to rise very high. As it is sung in a revolutionary song: “He who was nothing will become everything.”
It so happened that the most powerful, beautiful and high-ranking angel Lucifer became proud and rebelled against God. The situation was critical, because many angels of different ranks joined the troublemaker. But the other angels still hesitated. And then Michael called on those who hesitate to remain faithful to God. The valiant archangel led an army of angels who did not abandon the deity, and defeated Lucifer, casting him and his minions into the underworld. As a result, a kingdom arose there led by Satan (Lucifer) and with the same angelic hierarchy as in Heaven. But only the fallen angels began to be called not angels, but devils. At the same time, their angelic nature was preserved.
In the book of the prophet Ezekiel, Satan is called a “cherub.” Thomas Aquinas discusses in detail the question of how it was possible that he rebelled. This is instructive: “Cherub means “knowing,” and seraphim means “fiery” or “igniting.” The first name speaks of knowledge that is compatible with mortal sin; the second is about burning love, which is incompatible with sin. This is the reason for considering the first fallen angel to be a cherub rather than a seraphim. The names of two angelic ranks, Seraphim and Thrones, are not classified in the Bible as evil spirits, for these names mean something incompatible with mortal sin, that is, burning love and the presence of God. But the demons are called “Cherubim”, “Powers” and “Principles”, since these words mean knowledge and power, which both good and evil have. If we consider that sin has a moving cause, then it is clear that the greatest of the angels must rather have fallen into sin: as we have seen, the devil's sin was pride, and the moving cause of pride was natural superiority.
Many believe that the story of the struggle of angels comes from Iranian mythology, where Ormuzd and Ahriman fight. Others remember the war of the Titans and the Olympian gods. In general, all nations have myths about the wars of the gods. And each has its own characteristics. For Jews, this story is connected with their chosenness. Explaining the structure of the lower angelic hierarchy (Principalities, Archangels and Angels), Dionysius the Areopagite says: “The Bible entrusts the leadership over us to the Angels when it calls Michael the prince of the Jewish people, as well as other Angels the princes of other nations.” The fact that every nation has its own angel is completely natural, since every speck of dust has its own angel. But the fact that the Jewish people received an angel who defeated Satan himself is very significant. This explains the amazing properties of the chosen people, because the angel, as mentioned above, is what forms the object under its jurisdiction.
It's not all that simple. After all, other nations also have their angels. So, are these angels imperfect? This is how it turns out, since the peoples under their jurisdiction prayed to some untrue gods, that is, they behaved approximately the way the fallen angels once behaved. And only the Jews, whose prince is Michael, who defeated the rebels, remained faithful to God (a pagan would clarify: to their god). However, Dionysius comes to the defense of the angels active in history: “If anyone asks: how was it that the Jewish people alone were honored with Divine revelations? – To this it must be answered that the deviation of other nations to false gods should not be imputed to the good rule of the Angels; but the peoples themselves voluntarily fell away from the straight path leading to God, out of pride, pride and reckless veneration of things in which they thought to find the Divine.” That is, the problem is the freedom that God gave to man, but the angels are not to blame for the fact that people use it so badly.
We know that Michael is the prince of the Jewish people from the book of the prophet Daniel, to whom someone appeared in human form and explained (among other things) why he had not appeared earlier: “The prince of the kingdom of Persia stood against me twenty-one days; but behold, Michael, one of the first princes, came to help me, and I remained there with the kings of Persia” (Dan. 10:13). We are talking about military operations carried out by invisible forces (by the hands of people). And the Persian angel clearly opposes God (who is represented by the angel talking with Daniel), but Michael comes to God’s aid. That is, the pattern of the rebellion of angels is repeated. So it is in vain that Dionysius is trying to present the angels responsible for the nations as beings who cannot be imputed with the actions of their charges. The “Prince of the Kingdom of Persia” is clearly at one with the “kings of Persia”; he stands against the god of the Jews and against the prince of the Jewish people, Michael.
No one has seen God; he is beyond this world. Angels speak to prophets; they also act in nature and history. Nevertheless, even the most primitive people have an idea of the One Supreme God (ethnologists record this with surprise). Having created everything visible and invisible, the Almighty rested from his work, and the forces that he created continue to operate in the world. In the Abrahamic religions (Judaism, Christianity, Islam) these forces are called angels. In other religions, these are a wide variety of deities (“everything is full of demons and spirits,” says Thales). Their functions are the same as those of angels: to comprehend, design, and protect the zones of the world under their jurisdiction. They may be called angels. Or they may be called something else. For example, in Rome they were called geniuses.
Every person, clan, nation, country has a genius (angel). Mikhail is the genius of the Jewish people, he is what unites this people, creates its unique physiognomy, and determines its destiny. It is not at all necessary to believe that this is a people chosen by the Almighty, but it is impossible to doubt that the Jewish people have a genius that, if you like, chose them (as other geniuses “chose” other peoples). He chose and designed it in his own, so to speak, image and likeness. Therefore, the character of Archangel Michael is a paradigm of the character of the Jewish people under his jurisdiction. Having risen from the very bottom of the angelic hierarchy, Michael took a central place in heaven (just like Joseph did in Egypt). He leads the angelic ranks and, of course, is irreconcilable with the angels of those peoples (like the Persian or Egyptian) who allow deviations from the true path and oppress his people. This is the secret of the success of the Jews, who have taken commanding positions in the world.
There is no need to doubt: it was the high-ranking angel Michael who arranged so that the Jewish belief that their national god was the Most High God stepped (in the form of Christianity and Islam) far beyond the limits of Jewish limitations. Having spread to other nations, this faith imposed a Jewish matrix on the life of the pagans. The culture of the converts was reformatted and became, in a certain sense, Jewish. In particular, the gods of these peoples began to be presented as opponents of the god of the Jews, entering the same devilish category as the fallen angels. But now any believer can have such a powerful patron as Michael. Without it, a person is just a person. And with the archangel, who managed to drive the best of the best into hell, a person carries in his soul a powerful charge of upward movement and a naive belief that the one who stands in his way is Satan, who belongs in hell.
But having become the main angel of Orthodox heaven, Michael, of course, remains the “prince of the Jewish people.” How else? An angel cannot suddenly change his nature for no reason at all. If he had changed it, he would no longer be Mikhail, but someone else. All sorts of embarrassments happen to those who don’t understand this. For example, there was the “Union of the Archangel Michael,” a Black Hundred organization that spun off from the “Union of the Russian People,” which became famous for the Jewish pogroms. The “Union of Michael the Archangel” was not noticed in the pogroms, it seems, but fought to deprive Jews of voting rights and carried out mass campaigns to expose Jewish and liberal-Masonic intrigues. What does it mean? So much so that the archangel rallied not very smart people into his “Union” in order to punish the Jews who had forgotten God with their hands and at the same time discredit the Russians. Torturing your people at the hands of the natives is, judging by the Bible, the favorite pastime of the God of the Jews. But, as you can see, he also likes to make fun of the native fools.

Iconography of Archangel Gabriel
Archangel Gabriel appears before us in the guise of a beautiful young man, with a nim shining above his head, and beautiful wings behind his back.
Archangel Gabriel with lily
There is another image of him, preserved only in the earliest drawings. On them, the assistant of the Almighty is immortalized in a long robe, but he does not have wings or the usual halo. Similar drawings can be found in the catacombs of Priscilla in Rome.
In traditional paintings, the saint’s head is surrounded by a ribbon, the raised ends of which indicate that he is ready to heed the will of God. Also, in the palms of the angel, a rod, sphere, scroll or branch is sometimes depicted. The presence of these attributes depends on the plot of the picture. Most icons of the Archangel demonstrate his main task - an angel bringing important good news.
There is also a joint image of the Archangel Gabriel and Michael in various iconographic versions.
Archangel Gabriel is one of the strongest defenders of humanity, who was a harbinger of good news. By turning to him in prayer, we can enlist the support of one of the most powerful and significant Archangels.
History EditEdit
After breaking the last seal, Lucifer was released and began preparing the coming Apocalypse to wipe out the people he hated from the face of the Earth. The Horsemen of the Apocalypse helped him in this. The final battle with Michael was supposed to determine the fate of the entire Universe, so to fight with his brother, Lucifer needed Sam, since it was with Sam that Lucifer could use the fullness of his power. But the end of the world never happened: Sam, thanks to his love for Dean, was able to overpower Lucifer within himself and jumped into the cage, simultaneously dragging Michael with him in the body of Sam and Dean Winchester’s blood brother, Adam Milligan.
As a result, Lucifer, Michael in the body of Adam and Sam were in the same cage for a whole year. Consequently, the Devil himself was tormenting poor Sam... Later, after Castiel returned Sam from the cage, he deliberately left one small detail there - his soul. Sam was cruel, not understanding many feelings, and Dean rushes to his aid and makes a bet with Death: if he can wear Death’s ring for a day and do work for him, then Death will return Sam’s soul, and if he can’t... then he will be left with the empty ones hands. But Dean couldn’t do it and took off the ring ahead of time. Death still agreed to return Sam's soul, but since his soul, as expected, was severely destroyed by Lucifer, Death put up a special wall to block those memories, threatening that if Sam got rid of it, it would be bad. After some time, Cas, who has changed under pressure from the authorities, breaks the wall, and Sam gradually goes crazy and at the same time he sees Lucifer, who mocks him in every possible way, also depriving him of sleep.
HistoryEdit
Michael is the older brother of Lucifer, Gabriel and Raphael, and the most powerful of the archangels. In the absence of God, he became His substitute in heaven. In addition, Mikhail is one of the most powerful beings in the universe. A long time ago he crushed Lucifer, and he was locked in hell.
His vessel was Dean Winchester, but Dean was not the only vessel of Michael: the archangel could also enter John Winchester and Adam Milligan. Before the battle, Michael inhabits Adam so that the battle between him and Lucifer can take place. Currently, he languishes in Lucifer's Cage in Hell, along with Adam Milligan and Lucifer.
==Character ==
Mikhail considers himself an exemplary son of his Father, ready to do anything to fulfill His will. And so it happened: despite his love for Lucifer, he without hesitation overthrew him from Heaven and locked him in a cage on the orders of God. Like many angels, Michael is serious, strict and demanding, at the same time calm and calm. He has a great responsibility: managing Heaven and maintaining it in perfect order. Like many angels, he does not consider people his equals, does not value them at all: he is ready to sacrifice millions of lives, but defeat Lucifer; when he appeared to Zechariah in the bar, he killed all the people in the room with his voice. However, it is worth noting that Michael treats people without the disdain characteristic of Zechariah. He believes in fate, in his victory over his younger brother and does not tolerate interference in destined events. He loves and cares for his fellow archangels very much, regretfully rejecting Lucifer’s offer to leave the charted path. Unlike other archangels, he may not subject his vessel to terrible stress, which shows him as more merciful than his brothers.
