“Celestial Mandala I had another epiphany today. Another breakthrough. I've come to think of them as gifts from Lilliel, the angel who was designed to protect and guide all of the students of my classes, as well as myself. She's a kind of "artificial angel" made up of all of our energy.. I'm being lead step by step through a process of building a kind of suit of armer made of angelic energy. However, there is a very specific order in which they have to be evoked in order for the energy to click into place in exactly the right way. When I incorporated the archangels from the tree of life into the Lesser Banishing Ritual, it was a HUGE step forward. The reason I started calling it the celestial lotus is because that's the kind of pattern the configuration of them seemed to make when combined with the archangels of the four elements. Well, today I used the archangels of the four elements, then added the four angels of the elements, then the 10 archangels of the tree of life. So, 18 angels in all. Suddenly te pattern in my aura that looked like a lotus shifted and looked like a mandala. Like a big, intricate Tibetan sand mandala. This is a gradual process, like building muscle. I'll have to let this new phase stabalize in my energy field before i can move on to the next step, but I'm already excited for it. “

“One day without even thinking of it, I felt my Holy Guardian Angel nudging me to keep going. I had just done the LBRP, complete with Metatron above me and Sandalphon below me. I suddenly knew with absolute certainty that I was meant to keep going and invoke the rest of the archangels from the tree of life. So I did. And it was....life changing. It effected me in ways I am still not entirely able to articulate. I became more calm and focused, while still experiencing a flood of happiness and joy. I had never before encountered this practice in any book, or heard anyone speak of it, so I wasn't exactly sure what to call it when trying to describe it to people. I settled on the "celestial lotus", because in my mind's eye something about the positioning of the angels reminded me of the petals of a lotus.”
