Introduction:

This article is taken directly from a recent personal message to me (Caryl) from Zeb. Any personal information has been removed so that we could share it with you. Angels are the focus of this discussion, but toward the end Zeb goes briefly into darkness and evil as a contrast to Angels of pure light.

In this message Zeb makes reference to Darrel. Darrel is a fictional character, (who according to Zeb isn’t fictional,) in our (Melvyn Caryl’s) unpublished book, Dark Gifts. Darrel is a pivotal character in that book and we didn’t exactly know what to do with him until one day he just came alive. Sometime after we finished the book, Zeb during one of the channelings, let us know that Darrel was his invention—that he had inspired us to write this character. We still do not know who, or more precisely, what Darrel is.  A being of light for sure, but we don’t know what kind.

Zeb also mentions Aileen every time he uses a cliché. Actually, Zeb is being fed those clichés by Aileen. Aileen is my (Caryl’s) spirit guide who has a very interesting habit of using clichés in almost every sentence. 

Some years ago I wrote a book called Minaret Magic in which there was this really fun character, Shirley Blackwell, the best friend of the protagonist. I had such fun writing her because she just flew on the page as if she had a life of her own, and as I was to learn later, she did. When writing her, practically ever other word she uttered was a cliché of some kind. Clichés are frowned upon in the publishing industry, but I just could not change Shirley, so I did what I thought was the next best thing; I made those clichés an important part of her character.

It wasn’t until years later that I learned through Zeb that Shirley was really Aileen my spirit guide. This is a good example of how one does tap into the inner voice if they tune in. Aileen I am sure was getting a kick out of feeding me all these ideas. She was by far the easiest character I have ever written. Of course, I didn’t know I was ‘tuning in’ at the time. But since then I have learned that artists spend much of their creative time in that inner place where telepathic communication takes place. Now I can speak with Aileen whenever I choose. She pops in often when I am taking a shower.

Though the focus of the article is on angels, I left in comments about my granddaughter to illustrate how some children are so innocent that they radiate pure light like “little angels.” Having been a dance teacher for years, I have seen many children like this and always wondered about these cute little angels.

Now, about Angels.

Dearest Princess,

There are many things we could tell you about Angels and your granddaughter, for they bear much in common--both are Pure Love and Light to those all around, but your granddaughter is very much a mortal. What makes her so remarkable among those of your kind is her sensitivity to the feelings of others.

This comes from an especially good choice of parents (and grand­parents--I might add) both in the physical and spiritual realms, plus a very good team of spiritual guides…

She is so "feminine," as you call it because she is a "sensitive." She senses much more about those around her than most people give her credit for--you see, Who She Is, is still close to the surface--observe her and remember what it was like to be so pure. This hasn't been cultured out of her yet…

Angels. Yes, Angels do exist, but not in the traditional sense and form that most people believe. For example, you do not become an "Angel" once you get to this side. They don't have wings, or a halo--unless you wish to see them that way. As you both know by now, we of the spirit world are very accommodating.

We will appear the way you want us to look -- "Jesus with a beard." And why not? If I wanted a beard, I would have one, and I wouldn't have to wait for it to grow. In the times of Ancient China men venerated beards, and I wore one that was white and down to my waist--the silliest thing I was ever made to wear--including the eyebrows that came down to my lips. We do what is expected of us.

As I gave to Mel earlier, Angels are very much like your fictional character, who isn't fictional, Darrel.  They are beings of Love and Pure Light. How does that differ from us who are spiritual beings of Love and Light?

Let's say that we (and you) have more on our agenda--more purpose in our being than Angels do. Does that make us better than the Angels? No. It only makes us different.

They are a different sort of being than you and us. They do not have souls--they are pure spirit. That is why most often they are visualized as women--the spirit is feminine. But Angels are not "feminine" in the same sense as half of a Divine Duality. They truly are singular (not dualities) created genderless beings that take on any form suitable for carrying out their purpose.

Whatever form they take on is a mirage, an illusion, for they are never "incarnated" in the physical realm. They "materialize" in the physical realm when necessary to accomplish their mission.

Some have said that they are "created beings." Well, aren't we all? They are no more, nor no less, "created" than you and us. They are, however, so singular in their current purpose it would drive your kind "up the wall." Thank you Aileen.

They are singular in purpose and mission, whereas we are all dualities. They are beings of energy and light just as we are, but they are more focused, more "light." If that makes any sense. Since they have no soul, they have no body, unless they create one for their immediate needs. When they do, that body is just as physical as yours (or Darrel's) is.

This is not a handicap or restriction in any way for their singular purpose is to serve the All High God--the All Thing. Yes, they are messengers--go-betweens for the higher levels of God above us. We do not direct the Angels, nor do they direct us, we have different purposes and missions. Since they are not polar energies they travel between dimension with a speed and ease that even we cannot match. They are the "birds" of our skies without wings.

When mortals perceive Angels, usually they perceive a bright almost blinding white light for that is what they are--the Pure Light of God. They accompany us and surround us as Guardians with a light that you can see. We are energy, but our light is a softer hue of blue. Theirs is a pure white light that burns away evil and darkness. This is the light Mel saw surrounding Zarna recently at Boo's ascension. That blinding white light were the Guardian Angels of Zarna and Boo combined.

Angels are powerful beings of a hierarchy similar to ours. Whether I'd call them as your ancients did, I don't think so. They are all the same age for they have no age. They came before time began--before we did. They are immortal and ageless.

There are Guardian Angels, among others. How can we express their energies? You have read about, even felt, the aura of others—that is a good metaphor. Let's use it.

You are surrounded by layers of light, distinguishable by frequency, radiance and hue. They also have their own resonant tones (songs). Think of your soul and spirit as layers of lights in bands about your body. They are both within you and without you (like God) "As Above/As Below." Your body is the core that is encompassed by bands of multi-hued light. The most intense--when everything is working as it should be—when you are physically and spiritually well. It is the white light--pure white light that is the outer band or barrier of your protection.

Your shield or protection—your Guardian ... Are you beginning to get the picture yet? Radiant white light of Pure Love and Energy, a Shield or barrier that is your Guardian or Protection. That's right. Your Guardian Angels surround you—encompass you as a barrier shield. They are beings, but all men and women have a tendency to anthropomorphize everything in your physical human form.

Angels don't necessarily have arms, heads, legs or wings (unless you give them such).. unless they choose such to present themselves to you. On rare occasions when mankind will not hear our Messengers, God Above sends the real Messengers.

Guess what? They are often angels, and if they are to be there for an extended period of time, they attach themselves like moths to a flame (thank you Aileen) to a mortal counterpart. Our physical messengers…

They are spirit, and like your Spirit share much in common together. They are actually "hosts of angels" surrounding our Messengers -- you and others.

This does not mean you're better than others of your kind. No. It is because you have a mission. Angels are messengers too--when you encounter another soul who is trying to hear your "message," a little spark of that white light shoots out from your shield and attaches itself to the other. Guess what?

That is an angel. It may come back to you or it may go on spreading it's gift to others. They bring with their message of understanding comfort and love that is absorbed through the outer layers of your soul and spirit first, then down into the consciousness of your body.

In this sense your granddaughter is like an Angel. Right now, she is an uncorrupted being of light from the Earth's mass of realities. She is pure Love Light and Energy. She radiates this purity to all with eyes to see and it is this which attaches to your heart and makes you glow with love for her. And yes, she is a happy child, often singing--if only to herself. A Mortal Angel who sings because she is happy.

Like Theodius (Boo) said, they [angels] know no other way--unhappiness is not within their reality. That is why it is so silly for some to think of "Fallen Angels." There is no such thing. Light cannot be made into darkness by taking away the light. Light merely goes elsewhere, as Angels do. Light is always Light. The contrast of "darkness" is only within your realm and that too, like Light, is in varying degrees. The greater the Light--the less the Darkness. Makes sense doesn't it?

The more Angels you attract to you through your love and desire to help others, the less darkness within you. Now the darkness of which I speak is not the light of night. Night is feminine. It is the cool contrast of the Moon that offsets the heat of the sun--but it is not darkness.

The darkness of which I speak is the absolute absence of all light. Look up into your heavens at night when there is no Moon and tell me, do you see "darkness?" No! You see billions upon billions of soft faint stars of light and the farther you are able to see the more light will come to you.

Nor is this the darkness of the skin. Skin is not dark, except in contrast to light, but even the dark contains light. The darkness of which I speak is the darkness of the heart that is found in varying degrees within every mortal physical being. It is a power that is negative energy as opposed to enlightened energy. Speak of Angels in our Articles and we will give you more within our Messages for when we speak of Angels we speak of Love and Light, the Truth and Knowledge. When you share any of this with another you share an "Angel." This is what was meant when someone said, "I send you nothing but Angels." I send you nothing but "Love and Light," "Truth and Knowledge," and this Light, dispels all darkness (ignorance). You are not Angels--unless you are.

Seek Wisdom wherever you find it. There are many hearing and echoing my words now for the Second Coming is near. The darkness is being pushed aside, but the danger grows greater the closer to that time. The danger is always greatest the closer one gets to enlightenment.

[Caryl's Note. Zeb is not implying that “Our message” the ZZ Message is the only message, but rather he is speaking for all the times he, as God, by many names in many different cultures has given The Message.]

(See more about evil and darkness in the glossary.)

Darkness is a force to be reckoned with. Whenever it attaches itself to others it is because my (God’s) message is not within them. It uses this vessel as a means to challenge the Light. I tell you this; no darkness can withstand the power of Light and Truth. If darkness is allowed it will be mirrored back into their physical lives, and they will get another chance to get it right the next time.

This is the meaning of the "Hula Hoop" thing.* "What goes around comes around." Thank you, for the real meaning and words of that analogy. It's cuter than mine--you know what I mean. Be blessed by these assurances and be a blessing by passing on an Angel.

Peace and Love,

Zeb & Zarna

* P.S. Zeb was speaking of a family saying, “Don’t poop on the “Hula Hoop” because it is coming back around.” Graphic, but one does get the point! J
