Question: Where Are My Angels?
Dear Christopher,
Why can’t I feel my angels when I’m depressed?
Why can’t I feel my angels when I’m depressed?
Answer: Our angels remind us that they can help lift us up, one emotional state at a time. They encourage us to become friends with them and to become friends with our own emotional states. Rather than being subject to our emotions, we can begin to be able to work with them, consciously lifting ourselves from one emotional state to another as though we are ascending a ladder to the top emotions of joy, bliss, wisdom, freedom, gratitude, appreciation. As we ascend, step by step, we can have absolute confidence, absolute knowingness that with every step we take, our consciousness increases, our awareness grows.
If we use the analogy of a ladder, the higher emotional states are joy, happiness, bliss, appreciation, gratitude, love. From these emotional states, we are energized and creating our experience from the highest aspects of our being. We’re looking out from the high perspective and can see how everything fits together in perfect divine order.
In contrast, the lower emotional states are depression, despair, hopelessness, despondency, and fear. When we stay in these emotional states, we are depleted and yet we’re still creating our experience, though it is from a fear-based consciousness where we cannot see the big picture. From these lower states, our vibration will tend to attract more experiences that will appear from our limited vantage point to validate our low feelings. In the middle of this ladder, there are states of boredom, not being present, and dullness. From these states, we’ll tolerate the drone of the daily grind but won’t feel the spark of inspiration that could propel us into the higher emotional states.
Our angels remind us that it is important not to become frustrated, disappointed or disillusioned that we’re not able to leap from the bottom to the top of the ladder in one step. They are asking us to have confidence and certainty knowing that each step that we take is equally, vitally important. They also counsel deep compassion for ourselves when we find ourselves on one of the lower steps. They advise us to simply begin moving up the staircase again. They realize the challenge that a human life presents, and that is why they are here as friends, guides and companions.
This emotional guidance system is also the staircase perceiving our angels, to our higher self more clearly and more directly, to knowing this higher truth more of the time. Remember that our Angels are with us completely and absolutely even when we’re in the lowest states. They do not leave us, they stay our constant companions, friends and guides. We simply lose perception of them in the lower states. Begin to feel, to know that your angels are simultaneously present with you exactly as you are, and they also wait for you a few steps above.
To assist your conscious partnership with your Angels, please feel welcome to use this invocation during your daily contemplation time, or at any time you are experiencing a challenging emotion:

- "Beloved angels, help me to be at peace with my emotional states. Help me to know that there’s nothing I need to heal or fix, judge or condemn. Help me to be aware of the gift of understanding and consciousness that each emotion brings to me. Beloved angels, I welcome you as my guides. I welcome you to shine light on my path, especially on the very next step that I can take. I welcome you to hold my hand and guide me to a higher emotional state, to my next state of consciousness."
