Archangel Raziel is one of the angels that I connect with most often. He resonates with the planet Uranus - insight, illumination and cosmic connection - and as an Aquarius, I love that vibe. Like most of the archangels, his name comes from Hebrew. We can get a sense of what angels represent from the letters in their name: Resh (R), Zayin (Z) and Yud (i) with El referencing the role that angels play as messengers of Light.
Hebrew letters have a number, a meaning, and an energy signature. They are also said to be conduits of energy and according to the SeferYetzirah, visualizing the letters as black fire against brilliant white light activates them in the physical world*. The Hebrew letter Resh brings Peace*, Zayin is a blade that cuts through illusions of fear or confusion, and the Yud represents the spark of divine light that resides in all of us.
Archangel Raziel guides us in soul-healing and symbolism, especially where past lives, family lines and unconscious attitudes are concerned. Natal Astrology paints a wonderful roadmap. If we call on him before studying our charts, Archangel Raziel can help us spot unconscious patterns, conflicts and also talents that we can tap into. As discussed on the Astrology Tab - we find our hidden treasures by working through our shadow and our natal charts. Raziel pulls back the veil in a safe and loving environment, while filling us with peace.
Let's Meet Archangel Raziel
As the archangel of mystics and cosmic information, Archangel Raziel's range of themes is pretty wide. As always, call on Archangel Michael or Zadkiel first, to clear and shield your meditation space, and then ask Raziel to join you. Intuition basics are in my book, Chakra Healing & Magick 🔮
In a few weeks, I’ll stream a meditation with Archangel Raziel on Facebook. In the meantime, start with the meditation below to awaken your psychic abilities. Call on Archangel Raziel. The script is in Chakra Healing & Magick. It was designed to help you identify your gifts, and plant seeds for new psychic abilities to develop.
Psychic meditations are similar to dream analysis; we receive messages as images, sounds, scents and then interpret it when we are done. Sometimes the message comes to life completely in one session, but often it builds with time. In school, when we were doing psychic readings for another person we'd ask for their visuals and discuss it with them at the end 💝
This Fall I signed up for an online class atmy former school. One of my classmates now teaches there, Liesl Duffy. It has been so much fun to be back in the student seat. We have been connecting with different archangels and guides every week.
The weekly theme is always a surprise. Last month, I finally understood the music that I’d hearing in my personal meditations for nearly two years. Liesl told us that we would be connecting with a goddess and the meditation consisted of a journey to a temple where we would meet her. We would find out who she was once we arrived, not before.
Everything that I describe below came to me during the intuitive meditation, without any music playing and little description.
From the outset I heard songs running through my mind. It felt (more than sounded) like a feminine voice ringing out from the jungle on our way into the temple. I am from Mexico and love the Pacific coast, hence the jungle. The clairaudient meditations that I have had the past few years have been similar - a powerful female voice echoing my words - but she has what feels like limitless reach. I will often get clips of music videos that I like too.
As we continued through the meditation, we were guided to approach a temple. The teacher who facilitates the class doesn't give many details and this leaves space for our intuition to fill in the blanks. I kept hearing music, often Shakira's DARE or Katy Perry's ROAR. Every now and then I heard snippets of Rihanna's "What's my name" with a variation on the lyrics, so that it went: INANNA, WHAT'S MY NAME. Then back to Roar.
I also got the impression that we could only enter if we danced our way in. All along the path there were people dancing - almost like they were listening to a cosmic concert. I am not much a dancer (but I do love music) so I was relieved to be the only witness to this meditation lol.
When we finally made it into the temple, Liesl told us that we were there to connect with an ancient goddess known as Inanna. I had connected with her intuitively in the past, usually a passing thought, but hadn't made a link between her and the music. Inanna was a fierce Sumerian goddess, looking after love, beauty, war, justice and political power.
In the past, when I have asked why this goddess is relevant for me, the word ASTARTE came to mind; the name used for Inanna in the part of the world from which the Lebanese side of my family hails. Not entirely sure what it means, and Inanna rings a bell more than Astarte does, but the musical vibration feels amazing. In previous posts I have written about manifesting with music, I believe this goddess amplifies the effect. We can connect with that beautiful energy.
Asfar as history is concerned, there was a religious following of Inanna thousands of years ago. It is likely the beliefs and practices were reflective of Sumerian culture at the time. I don't know much about it as the intuitive meditations are experiential in nature, focused on healing and personal development. The meditation was freeing, full of life and reflective of Katy Perry's Roar or Shakira's Dare. Just what I needed lol.
When class was wrapping up the teacher mentioned Rihanna's What's My Name (Inanna) and talked about that feminine energy expressing itself through music, with confidence. This kind of synchronicity is common in meditations as we are all tuned into the same current of energy.
