It’s through my own struggles, life lessons, and obstacles that I have met these higher beings and formed a connection with them.
Do I connect with all? The answer is no, but I have l learned about them and their stories and I would like to share them with you. Some I have a very deep and strong connection with and you will see that throughout my work and creativity in Spiritual and Aligned.
*Please note
I am not here to put my beliefs on anyone. I am a human being having a spiritual experience. I grew up catholic and strongly believe in God, but I do connect with other higher forms and I am here simply to spread what I know and what works for me. Take what you connect with and leave the rest.

About:
Pele is the goddess of fire, lighting, and volcanoes in Hawaii. Pele was born in Tahiti but because of her fiery temper, her father banished her from his islands. She traveled until she settled on the Big Island of Hawaii and made it her home.
An ancient Hawaiian deity that continues to hold a special significance in traditional Hawaiian culture, Pele is the Fire Goddess of Hawaii, ruler of fire, lightning, volcanoes, wind, and creator of all the Hawaiian Islands.
Pele’s themes are unity, tradition, protection, creativity and change. Her symbols are fire and red colored items. In Hawaii Pele’s fires develop and redevelop the islands through volcanic activity. It is this creative force that comes into our lives today, cleansing, transforming and rebuilding.
A lot of people are scared to work with Pele because of her intensity and power. I personally find myself very connected to her, as I feel a lot like her in a sense. I call on her to make my rebirth candle.

Archangel Michael
About:
Archangel Michael is the Mighty Angel of Strength, Courage and Protection whose name means ' He who is like God'. One of the seven more recognized Archangels he is a warrior. He has the highest title of Angels that there is, from my understanding. He appears dressed in brilliant blue armor, surrounded by electric blue and white light.
Archangel Michael is the only angel who is mentioned by name in all three of the major sacred texts of the world's religions that place the most emphasis on angels.
By invoking Michael he will faithfully stand by your side with his sword and shield, ever ready to guard and protect you, surrounding you with his deep blue cloak for both physical and spiritual protection.
I only call on Archangel Michael when I need him most. As I call on my guides and angels first. Michael is very powerful and will help you!
I’ve called on him for cord cuttings which is another blog post. But I’ve asked him to step in and to cut the cord with his sword.
When my grandmother passed away my heart was absolutely broken. I called to him many times and asked him to hold my heart in his hands and protect it with his bright blue light.
Blue is the angel light ray associated with Archangel Michael. It symbolizes power, protection, faith, courage, and strength.
Invocation:
“Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil; May God rebuke him, we humbly pray; And do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host, by the power of God, thrust into hell Satan and all evil spirits who wander through the world for the ruin of souls. Amen."
