Introduction to Archangel Uriel
Archangel Uriel, "The Light of God" is associated with the Sun and the element of fire. Uriel is often considered the angel of illumination, wisdom, and enlightenment. As the Sun radiates light and warmth, Uriel brings divine light and insight into our lives. The archangel brings divine guidance, insight, and understanding to individuals seeking wisdom and clarity. Uriel is sometimes regarded as the angel of repentance, helping people reconcile with their mistakes and find forgiveness. Uriel also has a role as a revealer of divine mysteries, including information about astronomy and celestial knowledge.
My Personal Experience
The Archangel Uriel has been with me throughout my life. When my gift of mediumship felt like a curse as a young adult and I pleaded with God for quiet, it was Uriel who interceeded and said the one who sent me was sorry and that I would be offered respite until such time as I felt ready. The Archangel wrapped me in silence for the first time in my life and assured me that when I called for my divine connection, it would come gently. Uriel still walks beside me when I need clarity. I find them tranquil yet mighty, with a soft wit and an intellectual brilliance.
Patronage
Uriel is the protector of various domains, including the arts, sciences, academics, and the Earth. As a guardian of the natural world, Uriel assists with ecological preservation and environmental harmony.
Symbolism
Uriel is commonly depicted carrying a book or a scroll, representing knowledge and wisdom. The archangel's presence is associated with a bright, illuminating light, symbolizing spiritual enlightenment and understanding. Various colors are associated with Uriel; my experience is not one solid color but a moving luminescence.
Channeled Prayer
On the 12th day of June 2023, I received a channeled message and prayer from Archangel Uriel to share with all who feel called to receive it. "Please tell your friends who are suffering in darkness or stasis to remember that they hold the light of God within and that they are held by God and the angels. They are not lost to us; we are here and ready to envelop all who call upon us with love, inspiration, support, and illuminated pathways. May I offer a prayer?" The Archangel did not offer instruction or provide a title or headline; Uriel simply infused me with the knowing that I should take down the prayer verbatim, trusting that it would reach its intended recipients. The Angels have often suggested that there is comfort and recalibration offered through the reverence and regenerative nature of sacred words sung or spoken. "Oh, beloved God, Father-Mother As One and All Ever After; Thou art within me and outside of me. Thy dwell above, below, and in the faces of all who pass by. Indeed, thy dwell in my own face. May this face then reflect that which you are. Lead me to see you and to love you with my thoughts and deeds. Guide me as I walk the steps of this life that I may be a lantern emitting your light. Fortify my resolve with inspired action that I may serve as called. You have entrusted me, along with my sisters and brothers, with the stewardship of this beautiful land and all creatures of the elements. May I receive wisdom and clarity with the breath of life you offer unto me. Lay down before me the remembrance of my true nature that I may release all that does not honor the divine within, for I am your child. Verily, I understand, proclaim, and reflect upon this truth: I am your child. Oh, Holy Mother-Father God AS One and All Ever After; Please clear me with your grace and mercy and nurture me with your divine fragrance. Open me to everlasting love and keep me, on my best day and my worst, safe from those who seek to diminish the light upon my path. Oh Divine and Merciful God As One and All Ever After' Infuse into me the knowing that my divine flame grows in strength with each breath taken in love for the All and the One. If it is divine will, make me full with the might of pure light in the face of those who seek to extinguish my flame. Verily, I understand, proclaim, and reflect upon this truth: I am love."
