Once your guardian angel is assigned to you,
they’re never reassigned to another person—
even after you die. Their mission is uniquely
tied to your soul.
Many traditions say your Guardian Angel
intercedes for you constantly before God, even
when you don’t ask. They’re like heavenly
prayer companions, always working for your
good.
Though often imagined with wings and robes,
Guardian Angels are pure spirit. They don’t
have physical bodies unless they take on a
visible form for a purpose (as described in
some stories or biblical events).
Guardian Angels may nudge your conscience,
offer warnings, or bring good ideas to mind—
but they won’t override your free will. Their
help is always subtle and respectful.
Though they’re always with you, your Guardian
Angel is especially attentive when you ask for
help—even with small matters like peace of
mind, clarity, or a reminder not to lose your
toys!
Not all angels are the same. Guardian Angels
come from the lowest choir of angels (in the
traditional nine choirs), which means they’re
the most directly involved with human affairs.
There are countless testimonies of people who were mysteriously protected or led to safety—sometimes hearing a voice, feeling a tug, or even seeing a figure—believed to be their guardian angel.
Your guardian angel may team up with other angels in times of spiritual battle or special need, especially when you pray or when others are praying for you.
Some stories and beliefs suggest that young children are more likely to sense or even see guardian angels, possibly because of their innocence and open hearts.
