Foreword

We have blessings and prayers for everything - to herald new seasons, for enchantment, for our food, for beginnings and endings, even for luck. Saying our prayers is our reminder: Wait, look at this. Someone gave us our world. Stop a minute and wonder.

Prayers are written by people who do stop and wonder. If you look, you may find there is a voice for you among them. You may find that somewhere in this prayer book are your fears and dreams - and a way to express them.

Through prayer you can put yourself in touch with who you are and what you can be. Start small. Bless one moment for what it brings to you. Say one ancient prayer and link yourself with continuity and eternity. Fill one silence with your end of the conversation. Only you can do this for yourself.

From a friend in prayer with you.

Introduction

A Wing and a Prayer (Original Tribe Handbook of Angels) is your A to Z guide to the vast and mighty kingdom of Angels and the prayers they have inspired. Angels...everyone has an opinion about whether they exist and who or what they are. Religious scholars have published volumes, and yet the invisible remains invisible. A visit from an Angel will always be a purely subjective experience - a connection that you make.

What has been your experience of Angels? Have you awakened from sleep and seen or felt one in your midst? Perhaps you’ve heard an invisible voice call your name. Has an intuitive sense driven you to call a friend or caused you to be drawn to a stranger? Are you convinced a Guardian Angel watches over you? And where is that magic for you now? Do you find yourself yearning to get in touch with it again?

If your answer is yes, then this book may be a part of your pathway back to the Angels.

Twenty six Angels and corresponding prayers are listed; each with a brief note of how they have been described in oral traditions and ancient texts. A Daily Practice is included so you can make, or advance, your own connection. This ancient meditation has been used by seekers for thousands of years to commune with Angels.

Your Angels are quite anxious to greet you, teach you and partner with you. They have chosen to remain outside "physical" reality for the express purpose of helping you find them.

You really do have a Guardian Angel.
