8 Signs Archangel Raphael Is Visiting You
Known as the resident Angel of healing, Archangel Raphael makes his presence known during times of recovery, recuperation – even mental or emotional discomfort. His name translates to “God heals” or “he who heals”. And he’s readily available to be called upon in times of need…big or small.
Like many of the other Archangels, Raphael wants you to know that he’s near. He will often manifest himself to you in clear, humorous, reassuring ways to bring comfort and clarity to all who ask for help.
Think you’ve been visited by Archangel Raphael? Here are 8 surefire signs that the Angel of healing is by your side:
1. Sparks or flashes of emerald green light
The most common sign that Archangel Raphael is near is seeing his emerald green light. As you may know, Angels do not usually appear in physical form. Instead, they often show as energetic shimmers or orbs of light. Each Archangel has his or her own distinctive color, and Raphael’s is a beautiful emerald green.
When Raphael is close by, you may see a spark or flash of emerald light.
But that’s not all. You may also see an aura of green around people or specific areas of the body that are in need of healing. If you do, take note. This means that Raphael is here and actively promoting healing within that person.
When you see Archangel Raphael’s light, you may also feel his healing powers gently pulsating or flowing through you. Take comfort in knowing that help has arrived.
2. Finding messages on everyday objects
Even though he’s often called upon in times of despair, Raphael does have a sense of humor, especially when it comes to conveying Angel messages. In fact, many people have reported feeling his presence through messages seen on everyday objects, specifically license plates and books.
For example, if you called upon Raphael while driving, you may notice a unique and seemingly coincidental message popping up on the license plate of the car in front of you. Or perhaps the letters in your alphabet soup rearrange in an impossible way to form a truly meaningful message. Or maybe you knock a book on the floor and it opens to reveal a wonderfully healing message on a particular page.
Whatever the case, Raphael has been known to use unsuspecting objects to deliver his messages in powerful – and sometimes humorous – ways.
3. Seeing Raphael’s name everywhere
Raphael isn't one to shy away from the spotlight. He wants his presence to be known. So don't be too surprised if you encounter the name Raphael repeatedly when you’re out and about.
Maybe you've been praying for healing. And the next moment a large truck passes you on the road with the word “Raphael” emblazoned on its side. That's no coincidence. The more you pay attention to your surroundings, the more likely you'll be able to pick up on these not-so-subtle synchronicities.
4. Sensations of heat or tingling
Angels in the spiritual realm often communicate with us humans through all of our senses. And this is the same for Archangel Raphael. When you call upon Raphael, he might manifest himself as a physical feeling rather than a visual representation. Most often, a sensation of heat, tingling or energetic vibrations will indicate that he’s near.
It’s easiest to pick up on these feeling during calming activities like meditating or going for walks.
These sensations may be hard to detect when you’re in a crowded, noisy space. Because so much of our daily lives can distract us from the Angels’ messages, it's important to remain in tune with your own body and feelings as much as possible. In doing so, you may become more sensitive to fluctuations in temperature and how your body responds to stimuli, such as Raphael’s presence.
5. Hearing music or sounds
Individuals with clairaudience – the gift of clear hearing – often find that their ears are a prime channel to connect with Angels. This is a favorite way for Raphael to communicate. In many cases, he’ll manifest himself as a ringing in either the left or the right ear.
6. Hearing whispers
Sometimes, Raphael's messages come through as words. Sensing someone whispering your name in your ear, even though nobody is there, is a direct sign that Raphael is near. This can happen during your waking hours or in your dreams.
A strong feeling to act right after often accompanies this kind of communication. So take note of how you feel, as you likely already hold the answer you need to move forward.
7. Seeing Raphael in a physical form
Similar to seeing Raphael's name in the flesh, you may also see Raphael in a physical form when he comes to deliver help. In your mind's eye, Raphael may appear to you with a bright emerald green aura encircling him. Those who have been visited by Raphael in this manner have noted seeing a tall figure with golden, curly hair.
8. Feeling the urge to reconnect with nature
It’s no mistake that Archangel Raphael’s color is emerald green – the color associated with nature.
Many people who have been visited by Raphael suddenly have a strong yearning to go outdoors and explore. You may experience a new appreciation of nature. Or perhaps you have an overwhelming feeling of stewardship – protecting the Earth, her elements and her creatures.
Whatever the case, acting on these feelings can provide a profound sense of healing in its own right. Whether you need to take a hike in the woods to clear your mind or feel compelled to give back to the planet, these activities can deliver feelings of healing and accomplishment.
