There are actually several kinds of angelic beings, and various sources
of information about them. Biblical angels are really just one type,
so don't get too bogged down in the Christian approach to angels.
Archangels like Michael or Gabriel are very well-known
in popular culture, and while some people have been known to channel
such powerful beings, this isn't likely where you're going to be
starting out.
If you are going to start working with angels, you
should consider the idea of ascended masters as well. Many people
who work with angels are aware of these other spiritual beings,
and have found them to be just as helpful as true angels. Ascended
masters are the spirits of humans who once lived a mortal life,
but who earned enlightenment during their time here. Now they exist
on a higher spiritual plane, and are available to communicate with
us just as the angels are.
Confucius, Buddha, Krishna and even Jesus are all
considered to be ascended masters and you may be able to channel
them for messages of guidance and wisdom. There are very many others
who are not well-known on this plane, so don't expect your connection
to automatically be with "someone" you know.
How to Channel an Angel
Some people are going to have more natural
skill at this than others, given any psychic talents you may or
many already have. But even if you've never shown much ability in
this area before doesn't mean you can't learn a few new techniques.
The best way for a beginner to start learning about
channelling angels is through meditation. A receptive meditative
state is the key to contacting the spirit world for many different
purposes, including this kind of communication with other beings.
If you are completely new to meditating in the first place, you'll
want to get comfortable with that practice first. A peaceful and
clear state of mind that has removed itself from your physical state
is where you want to begin your channelling.
When you start to attempt channelling, enter your
usual relaxed state and set your thoughts on your communication
goal. Once you have made contact a few times, it will be much easier
to call out to a certain being. But until then, you have to just
open yourself up to a contact. Be very attuned to any sensations
or impressions that you get. An angel isn't going to just appear
in front of you in physical form and introduce itself.
It can take time to build up a strong connection with
an angelic being, so the first few contacts can be quite brief and
tenuous. Keep a record of your meditative journeys to understand
that things you are hearing or seeing. Over time, you may start
to understand the nature of these contacts better.
As the connection grows, you'll get more "concrete"
messages and impressions where you can communicate more directly.
Feel free to ask for help if you require some assistance, otherwise
just be open to what your spirit wishes to tell you.
When you are done with your communication session,
always thank your angels or spirits before you depart even if you
haven't had a strong sense of contact.
What Can You Learn?
Well, you would have the opportunity to learn whatever
your angel spirit chooses to share with you. Sometimes it may just
be suggestions and encouragement to help you get through any current
problems you might have, other times it may include a wave of healing
energy when you need it the most. You may get messages from loved
ones who have passed on, and you may even get hints to future events
if your angel feels you need to have the information.
But you probably shouldn't go into this endeavour
thinking solely about what you can get out of it. Think of it more
of a way to broaden your understanding of the universe, and as an
opportunity to connect with something beyond the usual human experience.
That should be enough of a reward.
