The sixth bead is the blessing of insight. It resonates with the air of Tipereth. Tipereth is said to be the place on the tree where we have the vision of the Holy Guardian Angel. The Holy Guardian Angel is an intermediary between us and our divine self. The radiant divine self has issues communicating directly to us because it sees time, space, and matter as illusions. Since we live in space, time, and matter to have this earthly experience it makes it easier to commune through an intermediary shape such as the Holy Guardian Angel. This being is part of us and part of the divine. It descended from spirit so we could be formed and to guide this life toward our great work.
The Holy Guardian Angel can sometimes be confused with the general concept of guardian angels. Guardian angels are supposed to be beings that watch over us throughout our lives. Guide us when we seem lost. Protect us from harm and aid us only if we ask for it. They are believed to be separate entities. There is supposed to be one for everyone in the world. They can act as intermediary between us and other angels. The difference is that Holy Guardian Angels are more like our concept of the Higher Self. The part of us that never left the divine and remains connected to it. They are an integral part of our being that can’t be separated from us until we die and are dissolved back into spirit to be reborn.
This all seems like semantics to me because I think spirit by nature is paradoxically experiencing all times, places, and beings in a spiraling, eternal now. The guardian angel and Holy Guardian Angel are not completely separate because spirit doesn’t see boundaries. I do believe that we can contact both and by inviting their presence and aid we can do more then we could on our own. They are companions in our magic. They can give us the blessing of insight because they have been with us from the beginning and will lead us back into spirit at the end of our lives.
In our meditation for this bead I ask you to invite your Holy Guardian Angel to be present with you and give you insight into your life. To give you guidance along your path of the great work. Don’t get stuck in what you think your Holy Guardian Angel will or should look like; they can appear as anything because they aren’t fixed in any one form. It is also possible for your Holy Guardian Angel to send you a guide instead of showing up itself.
Meditation to the blessing of insight.
Hold the sixth bead on your blessing cord, the blessing of Insight, the bead of Air in Tipereth.
Count yourself down into a meditative state.
Allow the screen of your mind to expand into a sphere around you. Feel a rising sensation as your sphere begins to fill with radiant golden yellow light. Vibrate the God name of Tipereth: Yod-heh-vauv-heh el-oh-ah Vah-dah-ath
Feel how the golden light fills you with a feeling of joy and promise. Call out to your holy guardian angel. Ask for insight into your life and ask for guidance. You see a brilliant light coming out of the distance in the golden light. As it moves toward you, it looks as if it is a being walking toward you. As it grows closer the brilliant light tones down until you can see your Holy Guardian Angel or its messenger guide.
Great them. Ask again for insight into your life and purpose. Listen to them. They may show you visions and memories. Give you insight into solving problems. They may call attention to areas you need to focus on.
When they seem to be done, thank them. Ask if they have a name you can use to call upon them. Thank them again. They begin to depart into the golden light. As they leave they seem to glow brighter until they are too brilliant to look at. Then the light seems to blend into the golden light of Tipereth.
Begin to feel a gentle descent as the golden yellow light begins to fade from your sphere. Your sphere returns to the screen of your mind’s natural size and shape.
Count yourself up into waking consciousness.
Give yourself clearance and balance. Ground if necessary.
Know that if your insight didn’t come in this meditation you should be watching your dreams and for omens in your life from your Holy Guardian Angel.
Contemplation:
Think about the insights given to you about your life by your Holy Guardian Angel. Do they resonate with you and how you live your life? Knowing the messages are filtered through your subconscious did the messages surprise you or were they things you subconsciously want your HGA to say? What changes can you make to be more inline with your insight?
