Where do ware wolfs come from Fact or myth?

Origin of the Werewolf Legend

---

During middle ages, especially from 15th to 17th century, Europe was under the dark shadow of ignorance and superstitions. Towns were underdeveloped and people lived near woods. The fear of wolves was like a nightmare. Their attacks were so frequent and atrocious in nature that people even feared to travel from one place to another. Every morning, countryside people would find half-eaten human limbs scattered on their fields.

The first recorded Werewolf sighting took place around the countryside of German town Colongne and Bedburg in 1591. An age-old pamphlet describes those shivering moments vividly. Few people cornered a large wolf and set their dogs upon it. They started to pierce it with sharp sticks and spears. Surprisingly the ferocious wolf did not run away or tried to protect itself, rather it stood up and turned out to be a middle-aged man he was Peter Stubbe from the same village.

Stubbe was put on a torture wheel where he confessed sixteen murders including two pregnant women and thirteen children. The history behind his downfall was rather bizarre. He had started to practice sorcery when he was only 12 and was so obsessed with it that even  tried to make a pact with the Devil. Wearing a magic girdle he started to attack his enemies, real or imaginary. After several months, he would take the guise of a wolf and continued with his evil acts with more brutality. In the wolf form he used to tear up victims’ throats and suck warm blood from veins. Gradually his thirst for blood grew and he roamed around fields in search of prey.

The savagery of his crimes was beyond imagination. The trial record motioned few of them. Once two men and a woman were walking along a road that went through the forest Stubbe used to hide in. He called one of them into the forest. When the man did not return for a long time the second one followed his trail and also disappeared into the forest. When both the man didn't return for a long time the woman ran for her life. Later, two mangled male corpses were recovered from the forest, but the woman’s body never reappeared. It was believed that Stubbe had devoured it all. Young girls playing together or milking the cows in the fields were his frequent victims. He used to chase them like a hound, catch the slowest one, rape and kill her. Then he would drink hot blood and eat tender flesh from her body. However; the most gruesome sin he committed was upon his own son. He took him to a nearby forest, cracked the poor child’s skull open and ate brain from it.

No punishment could match the magnitude of Stubbe’s crime. His flesh was pulled off with red-hot pincer, his arms and legs were broken and he was finally decapitated. His carcass was burned to ashes.

The Magistrate of Bedburg built a grim monument remembering the ghastly incident. Workmen put the torture wheel atop a tall pole with Stubbe’s head above it structured with the likeliness of a wolf. Sixteen pieces of yard long wood cuts were hung from the rim of the wheel commemorating poor souls of the victims. The words of Stubbe’s trial and execution spread across the lands in no time. His brutality,  atrocity and savagery were beyond human comprehension and was readily related with the behavior of a wolf. People started to believe that such individuals with the shadow of wolves were living among them. They named themWerewolves.

The Order of The Angels

Angels are divided into definite ranks, each with seperate duties and honors. However, as with all aspects of angeology, what these exact ranks are depends largely on the scholar asked. Still, one of the most common listings of hierarchy used is the Pseduo-Dionysis. The listing comprises nine distinct orders of angels within three major headings known as Choirs. Despite the many listings available, most contain the same ranks and differ only in the order presented. 
First Hierarchy (Choir)
Clustered around the central core of purity.

SERAPHIM:

The uppermost section of the hierarchy, these are the angels closest to the throne of God. It is they who unceasingly chant the Trisagion, "Holy, holy, holy..." and encircle the throne, existing off the love emanated by God. It is this fiery love which gives them the term 'fiery serpents'. In this form of fiery serpents, it is said that the light they give off is so intense, that not even other divine beings may look upon them. There is said to be four of these angelic beings. They are listed as the four holy beasts in the book of Revelation and are also described as angels with four faces and six wings. Seraphim have six wings, two cover their faces, two cover their feet, and two are for flying.The only Bible reference is Isaiah 6:1-7. One of them touched Isaiah's lips with a live coal from the altar, cleansing him from sin. 

CHERUBIM (Cherub, singular for Cherubim):

Second to only the seraphim, the Cherubim hold the knowledge of God. It is also they who are often sent to earth with the greatest of tasks; the expulsion of Man from the Garden of Eden and the Annunciation of Christ were both performed by Cherubim. Spirits of the Harmonies. The guardians of the fixed stars, keepers of celestial records, bestowers of knowledge. Chief rulers are Ophaniel, Rikbiel, Zophiel, and, before his fall, Satan.

In the Cabala, Cherub is one of the angels of the air. In name as well as in concept, the Cherubim are Assyrian or Akkadian in origin. The work, in Akkadian, is karibu and means "one who prays" or "one who intercedes", although Dionysius declared the word to mean knowledge. In ancient Assyrian art, the Cherubim were pictured as huge, winged creatures with leonine or human faces, bodies of bulls or sphinxes, eagles, etc. They were usually placed at entrances to palaces or temples as guardian spirits. In early Canaanitish lore, the Cherubim were not conceived of as angels. [Cf. view of Theodorus, Bishop of Heracleaa, who declared, "these Cherubims not to be any Angelical powers, but rather some horrible visions of Beasts, which might terrify Adam from the entrance of paradise", from Salkeld, "A treatise of Angels". It was only later that the Cherubim began to be regarded as heavenly spirits. To Philo ("On the Cherubim") they symbolized God's highest and chiefest potencies, sovereignty, and goodness. They are the 1st angels to be mentioned (and to be construed as angels) in the Old Testament (Genesis 3:22). They guarded with flaming sword the Tree of Life and Eden, hence their designation as the "flame of whirling swords." In Exodus 25:18 we find 2 Cherubim "of gold," one on either side of the Ark (see picturization in Schaff, "A Dictionary of the Bible"). [Cf. "cherubim of glory shadowing the mercy seat" in Hebrews 9"5.] In Ezekiel (10:14) 4 Cherubim, each with 4 faces and 4 wings, appear at the river Chebar where the Hebrew prophet glimpses them. In I Kings 6:23, the 2 Cherubim in Solomon's temple are carved out of olive wood. In Rabbinic and occult lore, the Cherubim are prevailingly thought of as charioteers of God, bearer of His throne, and personifications of the winds. In Revelations (4:8) they are living creatures who render undeasing praise to their Maker. Here St. John refers to them as beasts (holy, divine beasts), 6-winged and "full of eyes within." John of Damascus in his "Exposition of the Orthodox Faith" also speaks of the Cherubim as "many-eyed". In Talmud the Cherubim are equated with the order Ophanim (wheels or chariots) or the order Hayyoth (holy beasts) and are said to reside in the 6th or 7th Heaven. In the Dionysian scheme, the Cherubim rank 2nd in the 9-choir hierarchy and ar guardians of the fiexed stars. Chief rulers, as listed in most occult works, include Ophaniel, Rikbiel, Cherubiel, Raphael, Gabriel, Sophiel, and--before his fall--Satan, who was, as Parente says in "The Angels", "the supreme angel in the choir of Cherubim." In the early traditions of Muslim lore it is claimed that the Cherubim were formed from the tears Michael shed over the sins of the faithful. [Rf. Hastings, "Encyclopedia of Religion and Ethics" IV, 616, "Demons and Spirits (Muslim)."] In secular lore the Cherubim have been called "black cherubim" (Dante), "young-eyed cherubim" (Shakespeare), "helmed cherubim" (Milton). Blake describes Satan as the "covering cherub" and turns the Ezekiel vision of the 4 creatures into his own "Four Zoas". The latter sound the 4 trumpets heralding the apocalypse. As angels of light, glory, and keepers of the celestial records, the Cherubim excel in knowledge. [Rf. Lindsay, "Kerubim in Semitic Religion and Art."] The notion of winged, multiple-headed beasts serving as guardians of temples and palaces must have been general in many near-Eastern countries, for in addition to appearing in Assyryan-Chaldean-Babylonian art and writings (where the authors of Isaiah and Ezekiel doubtlessly first came upon them), they appear, as already noted, in Canaanitish lore (with which the Israelites were, of course, familiar, and which influenced or colored the accounts in Genesis and other Old Testament books). An ivory from the collection of king of Megiddo, circa 1200 B.C.E., reproduced on p. 45 of the "Westminster Historical Atlas to the Bible", showes a Canaanite ruler seated on a throne, "supported by winged lions with human heads." These, say the editors of the "Atlas", "are the imaginary, composite beings which the Israelites called cherubim." As winged beasts with human heads, 2 Cherubim are shown supporting the throne of Hiram, kind of anceint Byblos (see reproduction, p 132, vol. A-D of "interpreter's Dictionary of the Bible"). Among works of more modern times, Rubens' "Apotheosis of James I" (hanging in the banqueting hall of Whitehall in London and filling the long side panels) shows a precession of Cherubs.)

Contrary to paintings on greeting cards and new age book covers, the cherubim are not depicted as fat, winged babies. Instead they are described as sphinx like creatures in Assyrian lore, or the angels gracing the Ark of the Covenant and Solomon's temple in biblical terms. The Old Testament does not reveal any evidence that the Jews considered them as intercessors or helpers of God. They were closely linked in God's glory. They are manlike in appearance and double-winged and were guardians of God's glory. They symbolized then, God's power and mobility. In the New Testament, they are alluded to as celestial attendants in the Apocalypse (Rv 4-6). Catholic tradition describes them as angels who have an intimate knowledge of God and continually praise Him. 


Thrones
:

Thrones are the Angels of pure Humility, Peace and Submisssion. They reside in the area of the cosmos where material form begins to take shape. The lower Choir of Angels need the Thrones to access God. Also known as the Ophanim, these angels serve the primary function of being God's chariot. But besides this, they are also noted as being the dispensers of God's judgment; acting with impartialness and humility to bring about the desires of the Lord. Having the most bizarre physical appearance of the celestial host, they are described a great wheels, covered with a great many eyes and glowing with light. One explanation given for this (besides them acting as God's chariot), is that they mark the end of the first Choir, where the emanations of God begin to take on more material forms and as such exist in a state of transition.

Spirits of Will. Bring God's justice to us. They are sometimes called wheels and in the Jewish Kabbalah, CHARIOTS or the MERKABAH. The occult book, the Zohar, ranks wheels above seraphim, but other sources place them as cherubim, the whole thing being confused. The ruling prince is Oriphiel or Zabkiel or Zaphiel.
Second Hierarchy (Choir)
An ultimate unification with "God the Source". All Orders within this Triad strive to balance or reconcile such opposites as good and bad, matter and spirit and higher and lower, thus risking corruption in doing so.

DOMINIONS or DOMINATIONS:

Act as a sort of middle management between the upper choir and the lower, holding the task of regulating the duties of lower angels. They receive their orders from the seraphim and cherubim and are responsible for ensuring that the cosmos remains in order. It is only with extreme rarity that the dominations make themselves physically known to mortals, instead quietly concerning themselves with the details of existence. Spirits of Wisdom, through them is manifested the Majesty of God. They hold an orb or sceptre as an emblem of authority, and in Hebraic lore, the chief of this order is named Hashmal or Zadkiel.

VIRTUES:

Given to two main tasks, the virtues not only are concerned with maintaining the aspects of the natural world, but also with bestowing blessings upon the material world as well. In their first task, they preside over the movements of the celestial bodies as well as events of weather including rain, snow, wind and the like. In the second, it is they who take the orders given to them and in turn convert them into miracles for God's favored. Variant names for them include the Malakim and the Tarshishim. Virtues are known as the Spirits of Motion and control the elements. They are sometimes referred to as "the shining ones." They govern all nature. They have control over seasons, stars, moon; even the sun is subject to their command. They are also in charge of miracles and provide courage, grace, and valor. 

POWERS:

Spirits of Form. Holding one of the most dangerous tasks, the powers are responsible for maintaining the border between Heaven and Earth. Acting as a sort of elite guard, they constantly watch for demonic attack, and are the major line of defense and battle during heavenly warfare. They are also tasked with guarding the celestial byways between the two realms and ensuring that souls which leave the mortal world reach heaven safely. Perhaps not surpassingly, given their proximity to the nether regions, there are more angels from the ranks of the powers listed as fallen than from any other member of the hierarchy. They stop the efforts of demons to overthrow the world, or else they preside over demons, or perhaps (according to St. Paul) they are themselves evil. Ertosi, Sammael, or Camael (depending on source) is chief of the Powers.
Third Hierarchy (Choir)
Most exposed and vulnerable to any corrosion of flesh. Angels from these Orders are most well known to us simply because they are most like us.

PRINCIPALITIES:

The head of the final choir, the principalities watch over the mortal world directly, guiding and protecting the earth's nations, cities and towns. Also, they are given to the protection of religion and of politics. As such, they are assumed to be given more freedom to act than the lesser angels below them and are responsible for carrying out divine acts concerning their area of jurisdiction. Finally, they are given to the task of managing the duties of the angels. Spirits of Personality or Time. Protectors of religion. Nisroc, in Milton, is "of principalities the prime," and others, according to various sources, are named Requel, Anael, and Cerviel.

In the New Testament Principalities refers to one type of spiritual (metaphysical) being which are now quite hostile to God and human beings. (Rom 8:38; 1 Cor 15:24; Eph 1:21; 3:10; 6:12; Col 1:16; 2:10, 15) Along with the principalities are the powers (Rom 8:38; 1 Cor 15:24; Eph 1:21; 1 Pt 3:22; 2 Thes 1:7); and cosmological powers (1 Cor 15:24; Eph 1:21; 3:10; Col 2:15);Dominions (Eph 1:21; Col 1:16) and thrones (Col1:16). The clarity of the New Testament witness helps see that these beings were created through Christ and for Him (Col 1:16). Given their hostility to God and humans due to sin, Christ's ultimate rule over them (ibid) expresses the reign of the Lord over all in the cosmos. This is the Lordship of Christ, which reveals God's tremendous salvation in conquering sin and death at the cross, and now takes place in the Church. (Eph 3:10) 

ARCHANGELS and ANGELS:
Guardians of people and all physical things.

ARCHANGELS 

- Fire Spirits. Angels above the order of Angels. It also serves to designate a specific rank of angels in the angelic heirarchy. The term Archangels refers to the greater angels such as Michael and Gabriel, known also as chief princes. The order can also refer to the angels who stand at the throne of God, thus being the higher angel ranking.

While also listed as a way of defining an especially important angel, the term archangel is used here as the second to last rank in the celestial hierarchy. The confusion comes mainly from the ancient Hebraic way of defining angels which was simple angel and archangel. It was not until later that the hierarchy was defined, and many of the angels previous named as simply archangels were given new posts. Despite this, as a class the archangels are tasked with not only watching the duties of the angels, but also acting as the leaders in the divine army during battle.

Archangels are generally taken to mean "chief or leading angel" ( Jude 9; 1 Thes 4:16), they are the most frequently mentioned throughout the Bible. They may be of this or other hierarchies as St. Michael Archangel, who is a princely Seraph. The Archangels have a unique role as God's messenger to the people at critical times in history and salvation (Tb 12:6, 15; Jn 5:4; Rv 12:7-9) as in The Annunciation and Apocalypse. A feast day celebrating the Archangels Michael, Gabriel and Raphael is celebrated throughout the Church Sep 29. A special part of the Byzantine Liturgy invokes the "Cherubic Hymn" which celebrates these archangels and the guardian angels particularly. Of special significance is St. Michael as he has been invoked as patron and protector by the Church from the time of the Apostles. The Eastern Rite and many others place him over all the angels, as Prince of the Seraphim. He is described as the "chief of princes" and as the leader of the forces of heaven in their triumph over Satan and his followers. The angel Gabriel first appeared in the Old Testament in the prophesies of Daniel, he announced the prophecy of 70 weeks (Dn 9:21-27). He appeared to Zechariah to announce the birth of St. John the Baptist (Lk 1:11). It was also Gabriel which proclaimed the Annunciation of Mary to be the mother of our Lord and Saviour. (Lk 1:26) The angel Raphael first appeared in the book of Tobit (Tobias)Tb 3:25, 5:5-28, 6-12). He announces "I am the Angel Raphael, one of the seven who stand before the throne of God." (Tb 12:15) 

ANGELS 

- Sons of life or of twilight. A rank which intermediates between God and Man. Angels are closest to earth and earthly matters, whereas the archangels have more to do with the heavenly realm. Both orders are very similar and they often cross in their duties with each other.

The least (if one could say that about any angelic being) in the hierarchy, angels are given to two major tasks. First, they are responsible for watching over the affairs of mortals in a more direct manner than the principalities. Instead of watching entire nations, angels watch over households and individual souls, guiding them subtlety and keeping them safe from demonic attack. Also, they are the carriers of God's word to mankind, acting as messengers and couriers to both God and the upper ranks of angelkind as well. In Hebrew, they are called mal'akh, meaning "messenger", in Persian the word is angaros or "courier". 

The Arch Angel's

ANGEL'S

Yes they do exist they guard and watch over mankind they don't care from what religion you are or from where you come from they dont care if your a sinner they came to help mankind HELP not Perfect they came to help and protect those whom need it they are just like you they have a free will they eat and drink they need sleep and they have feelings as they where also created in the image of God the most popular is All Archangels end with the "el" suffix.  "El" meaning "in God" and the first half of the name meaning what each individual Angel specializes in.  Archangels are able to be in many places at one time.  You never have to feel that your "problem" isn't important enough to bother them with.  That is what they're there for, to help you grow *.  The most popular Archangels are Michael, Raphael, Gabriel and Uriel who are depicted in the Christian Bible.  There is a debate as to the name of the other Archangels.  In the eighth century, the Christian Church became alarmed at the rampant adoration of Angels by the Christian community.  For some unknown reason, in 745 A.D. under Pope Zachary, a Roman council ordered seven Angels removed from the ranks of the Church’s recognized Angels, two of them being Archangels Uriel and Raguel.  This website recognizes there are many Archangels, and there's much debate to who they are and how many there actually are, but  we've listed the seven Judeo-Christian Archangels as:

MICHAEL

The arch angel and commander of the army's of heaven he sees all like god he sees evil and good at all time he defends in urgent time of need when called upon

Meaning - "Who is like God", "Like unto God", "Who is like the Divine"

The first Angel created by God, Michael is the leader of all the Archangels and is in charge of protection, courage, strength, truth and integrity.  Michael protects us physically, emotionally and psychically.  He also oversees the lightworker's life purpose.  His chief function is to rid the earth and its inhabitants of the toxins associated with fear.  Michael carries a flaming sword that he uses to cut through etheric cords and protects us from Satan and negative entities.  When he's around you may see sparkles or flashes of bright blue or purple light.  Call on Michael if you find yourself under psychic attack or if you feel you lack commitment, motivation and dedication to your beliefs, courage, direction, energy, vitality, self-esteem, worthiness.  Michael helps us to realize our life's purpose and he's invaluable to lightworkers helping with protection, space clearing and spirit releasement.

Michael conquered the fallen Angel Satan, was in the Garden of Eden to teach Adam how to farm and care for his family, spoke to Moses on Mount Sinai and in 1950 he was canonized as Saint Michael, "the patron of Police Officers," because he helps with heroic deeds and bravery.  Michael also has an incredible knack for fixing electrical and mechanical devices, including computers and automobiles.  If your automobile breaks down, call on Michael.

Michael helps us to follow our truth without compromising our integrity and helps us to find our true natures and to be faithful to who we really are.  Other times when you may find Michael helpful is when your job is too demanding with impossible deadlines to reach, when you have an addiction, if you're very ill and suffering from a degenerative disease or terminal illness and when you suffer from nightmares

RAPHAEL

The healing power of a living god

 Meaning - "Healing power of God", "The Divine has healed", "God heals"

Hebrew word rapha means "doctor" or "healer".  Raphael is a powerful healer and assists with all forms of healing - humans and animals.  He helps to rapidly heal body, mind and spirit if called upon, as in the biblical story of Abraham and the pain he felt after being circumcised as an adult.  You may call upon Raphael in behalf of someone else, but he can't interfere with that person's free will.  If they refuse spiritual treatment, it can't be forced.

The chummiest and funniest of all Angels, Raphael is often pictured chatting merrily with mortal beings.  He's very sweet, loving, kind and gentle and you know that he's around when you see sparkles or flashes of green light.

Part of Raphael's healing work involves spirit releasement and space clearing.  He often works with Michael to exorcise discarnate entities and escort away lower energies from people and places.

As well as a healer, Raphael is known as the "Patron of Travelers" because of his help with Tobias and his travels.  Call upon Raphael when you are traveling, to assure safe travel.  In addition, he assures that all your transportation, lodging and luggage details go miraculously well.  Raphael also helps with inward spiritual journeys, assisting in searches for truth and guidance.

Raphael taught Tobias how to make balms and ointments from a fish which cured Tobias' father blindness.  Raphael can be called upon to help healers such as doctors, therapist and surgeons.  Call on Raphael if you're a student entering the healing field and you're looking for the right school and/or are in need of help with studies, as well as getting the time and money for school.  He also assists with establishing healing practices when your schooling is finished.  Raphael not only helps you to heal from physical, emotional and mental pain, he also heals wounds from past lives.

Other areas Raphael helps with is finding lost pets, reducing and eliminating addictions and cravings, clairvoyance, bringing unity to your life, if you feel out of touch with your spirituality, if you've lost a partner and/or your soul/body doesn't feel "whole". 

 Raguel

Meaning -  "Friend of God"

Referred to as the Archangel of Justice and Fairness, Raguel oversees all the other Archangels and Angels.  He watches over them to make sure they’re working well together in a harmonious and orderly fashion according to Divine order and will.

Raguel is the Archangel for the underdog.  Call on him for help when you need to be  empowered and respected.  He helps to resolve arguments, helps with cooperation and leads to harmony in groups and families.  Raguel defends the unfairly treated, and provides support with mediation of disputes.

In the Revelation of John, Raguel is referred to as an assistant to God in the following account: "Then shall He send the Angel Raguel, saying: Go and sound the trumpet for the Angels of cold and snow and ice, and bring together every kind of wrath upon them that stand on the left."

URIEl

GOD IS FIRE

Meaning - "God is light", "God's light", Fire of God"

Uriel is considered one of the wisest Archangels because of his intellectual information, practical solutions and creative insight, but he is very subtle.  You may not even realize he has answered your prayer until you've suddenly come up with a brilliant new idea.

Uriel warned Noah of the impending flood, helped the prophet Ezra to interpret mystical predictions about the coming Messiah and delivered the Cabal to humankind.  He also brought the knowledge and practice of alchemy and the ability to manifest from thin air, as well as illuminates situations and gives prophetic information and warnings.  All this considered, Uriel's area of expertise is divine magic, problem solving, spiritual understanding, studies, alchemy, weather, earth changes and writing.  Considered to be the Archangel who helps with earthquakes, floods, fires, hurricanes, tornadoes, natural disaster and earth changes, call on Uriel to avert such events or to heal and recover in their aftermath

Gabriel

The divine is my strength

Meaning - "Strength of God"; "The Divine is my strength"; "God is my strength"

The only Archangel depicted as female in art and literature, Gabriel is known as the "messenger" Angel and is one of the four Archangels named in Hebrew tradition and is considered one of the two highest-ranking Angels in Judeo-Christian and Islamic religious lore. Apart from Michael, she is the only Angel mentioned by name in the Old Testament.  She is a powerful and strong Archangel, and those who call upon her will find themselves pushed into action that leads to beneficial results.

Gabriel can bring messages to you just as she did to Elizabeth and Mary of the impending births of their sons, John the Baptist and Jesus of Nazareth. If you are considering starting a family, Gabriel helps hopeful parents with conception or through the process of adopting a child.

Contact Gabriel if your third eye is closed and your spiritual vision is therefore blocked. If you wish to receive visions of Angelic guidance regarding the direction you are going in. If you wish to receive prophecies of the changes ahead. If you need help in interpreting your dreams and vision.

Gabriel helps anyone whose life purpose involves the arts or communication. She acts as a coach, inspiring and motivating artists, journalist and communicators and helping them to overcome fear and procrastination.

Gabriel also helps us to find our true calling. Ask for Gabriel's guidance if you have strayed from your soul's pathway, if you wish to understand your life plan and purpose. She can also help if you can find no reason for being or if changes are ahead and you need guidance. If you are contemplating a house move, major purchase or thinking of changing careers.

Call Gabriel if your body is full of toxins and needs purifying and if your thoughts are impure or negative and need clearing and cleansing. Gabriel is also very helpful for women who have been raped or sexually assaulted and feel dirty as well as being under psychic attack or if you feel that you have absorbed someone else's problems.

JOPHIEL

 Beauty of God"

Meaning - " Beauty of God"

Jophiel was the Angel present in the Garden of Eden and later watched over Noah’s sons.  The Archangel of art and beauty, he is the patron of artists, helping with artistic projects, thinking beautiful thoughts, to see and appreciate beauty around us.  Helping to create beauty at home and at work, Jophiel is the Archangel for interior decorators.   He illuminates our creative spark by giving us ideas and energy to carry out artistic ventures.  He also helps us to see the beauty in all things, including people.

 As well as helping our creativity, Jophiel helps us to slow down and smell the roses.  Call on him if you need joy and laughter in your life or if you feel you’ve lost the light in your life.  He will also help if your soul is sleeping and needs awakening and if you wish to awaken a deeper understanding of who you are and seeking a connection with the higher self, so that you may take your first steps along your spiritual pathway. 

You know Jophiel is at work if you are searching for answers to the questions in your life and wish the greater wisdom to be revealed to you, and all of a sudden you experience flashes of insight in which everything suddenly becomes clear. 

CHAMUEl

Meaning - "He who sees God", "He who seeks God"

The Archangel of pure love, Chamuel can lift you from the depths of sorrow and find love in your heart.  Chamuel helps us to renew and improve existing relationships as well as finding our soul mates.  He works with us to build strong foundations for our relationships (as well as careers) so they're long-lasting, meaningful and healthy.  You'll know he's with you when you feel butterflies in your stomach and a pleasant tingling in your body.
If there's a breakdown of your relationship, if you cling to your relationships and don't allow your companion the freedom to be able to express themselves freely, call on Chamuel for guidance and support.  The other areas you can Chamuel can help is if you need to strengthen a parent-child bond, if you're unable to feel love for yourself or others, if your heart has hardened and is full of negative emotions, if you have lost someone close through death or separation, if you and your children have experienced a divorce, if your heart is blocked with depression, hopelessness and despair, if you feel lonely and broken hearted, if you need to be loved, if you are judgmental and cynical or if you don't appreciate the love that you have in your life.

THE HOEDOWN ON REAL VAMPIRES (NOT A ROLE PLAY OR FANTASY POST)

++++++++++++++++++Real Vampire's++++++++++++++++++

 YES THEY DO EXIST

The vampiremyth/claim/belief	myth,exaggeration, orfact,	The real vampire explanation in detail.
Real vampires don’t need blood, they only need some part of blood, or just energy.	myth	A real vampire needs blood, but doesn’t need it for a psychological or medical reason, and at the same time gets a few perks. For those who believe that having just an energy problem makes them a vampire, try looking into the classic symptoms for Hypochondria, Psychotic Depression, Reinfelds, Depression, Hypothyroidism, Insomnia, Sleep apnea, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome aka CFS, Fibromyalgia, Eating disorders, damage obesity does to the body, Porphyria, blood fetish, hemophilia, Myasthenia gravis, and Anemia, just to name a few. In other words if you think you are a vampire and your reason for thinking it is that you feel low on energy often, or for others who even have the thought that you need blood to feel normal. Then contrary to what people in the "vampire community" tell you, go see a medical professional, this includes the combination of seeing a psychologist and some one with a PHD and get checked. Not to mention if it was an energy reason, animal’s blood would not work half as well as it does. Those who think blood is just a matter of being a nutritional source for real vampires. Keep in mind that nutritional supplement drinks today have much higher amounts of the nutrients and minerals that a person’s body needs than blood has. Nutritional supplements don’t have the same effects for real vampires as blood does for real vampires there for it is not a simple case of nutrition.
Real vampires can fly	myth	Real vampires can't fly, and neither can superman. Do you believe every thing that you see in movies, or just the things that you see in vampire movies?
Sunlight kills real vampires	extreme exaggeration	Sunlight won't kill a real vampire. However due to a heightened sensitivity to it, just like we have with basically everything else. It does cause an uncomfortable burn like feel, almost like what a normal person feels while they have sunburn. That feeling happens well before we have sunburn at all. It also makes us sunburn more quickly, and get severe migraines. Not to mention is very uncomfortable to a real vampires eyes, at times even while in a shadow during overcast weather. Getting blood on a regular basis helps counter this very effectively and for the average vampires it blocks the suns effects for about 2-3 days.
Real vampires are undead	myth	Real vampires are not undead creatures nor are they monsters. This myth most likely comes from the Dracula stories that are only barely based on the real Romanian hero Vlad, and or from the medical condition known asCatalepsy. Story goes Vlads death, happened at a fairly young age due to his own brother betraying him, resulting in his brother helping kill Vlad by encasing him in a casket and letting him die buried alive. After the clergy that used Vlad's brother as a pawn to make this happen knew that Vlad was dead, they made it quite clear to his brother what he had just done. The claim of vampires being undead branches from Vlad bones apparently not existing inside of the casket that he was buried alive in. Truth is the bones would not be in there because his brother after learning the truth would have dug him up, then given him a new casket and a proper burial to honor his brother Vlad. This story in itself couldn’t be farther from the truth, For the true story about Vlad Tepes click the link.
Real vampires kill people for food or for blood.	myth	Real vampires today do not kill people for blood or for food. All real vampires for at least the past few decades receive blood only from willing donors while causing the very minimum amount of pain and in a lot of cases no pain at all. Back when superstitions, fears of witches, vampires, werewolves, zombies and other monsters ran rampant, basically back when it would have been impossible to get a willing donor, and forensics was virtually nonexistent real vampires distant ancestors most likely did kill for blood, however that no longer happens and hasn’t happened for quite some time.
Real vampires have fangs	myth	Lots of places and things say this about vampires. It’s hard to say where it comes from, however that doesn’t make it true. It could also come from every natural carnivore and every scary monster notoriously having big canines. Semi related real vampire’s canines do seem to get sharper by themselves when needed, however they are not insanely long and they do not grow.
Real vampires sleep in coffins / caskets	myth	Real vampires don’t actually sleep in coffins, that’s a myth based on the idea of vampires being undead.
Real vampires don't need sleep	myth	Real vampires do need sleep, and we do it in normal beds like everybody else does.
Real vampires only need blood, and don't / can't eat normal food	myth	Real vampires can eat everything that normal people can eat, and real vampires don't live on just blood.
Real vampires are immortal	extreme exageration	Real vampires are far from being immortal. However, we do age noticeably slower and we do survive a lot of things but not everything that a normal person should not be able to survive.

1.  

ARE YOU A VAMPIRE?

 

1. 1. Do you have unusually pale skin? You don't have to be white to be pale. If yes then cook up one or two (depending on the size) medium rare steaks (the best way to do this) If, by the time you’re done enjoying the second one, you have a new pinkish color throughout your body that you haven’t had in a while, read no farther; you are a real vampire. Humans can’t digest blood let alone get color from it, real vampires do.
   
   NOTE: The extra work involved in trying to eat medium rare or rare meat can cause a temporary pink color to the skin which is otherwise known as being flushed. Temporarily being flushed is not the color that is being referred to when a vampire gets color from the blood in the steak. It takes a lot less human blood than animal blood to get the same effect but animal blood is way easier to get.) If you were white before and still are you should see a doctor. Odds are you aren't a real vampire, you’re just malnourished, and they can help.
2. Have you ever been told by professionals that you’re lucky you survived an accident with only a few scratches or cuts? 
3. Are you a naturally strong magic/energy user self-taught or self-realized?
4. As a kid, were you the strongest, smartest, or quickest kid in the class, and at around 16 years of age maybe all 3?
5. Did your dad disappear from your life while you were at a young age? (NOTE: 52% of vampires out of a large range of vampires have answered yes to this question. This includes people who believe they are real vampires however may not really be one.) Click for one theory on how this is vampire related: The Truth about the ''Vampire Community''.
6. Do people often tell you that you look very young for your age, or that they would have never guessed how old you are?

9. Do you have an unusually high tolerance to alcohol and other poisons/toxins?
10. Do you tend to switch between very social and antisocial frequently?

15. Do you tend to react to things like catching a falling object or other normally unexpected things at an almost psychic speed? (As if you were expecting it to happen)?
16. Do you tend to get a high from human blood? When drinking someone’s blood do you tend to find yourself being able to do something that they could do (that you couldn't do) about 2 weeks after drinking it? 
17. Are you sensitive to light or the heat from it? (Ranging from getting a bad headache from the glare to burning very easily.)
18. If, while your skin is white from lack of enough blood in you, do you bleed quite noticeably less than a person normally should, or more likely not bleed at all?
19. Are your nails clear like glass, yet very strong?
20. Is your bedroom the coldest and darkest room in the house?
21. According to multiple news articles easily found online, older adults can’t hear this sound. So far I haven't found someone over 36 who is a non-vamp that can. click to try to hear it. Warning: if you can hear it, it will be loud. (ALWAYS FOLLOW THE WARNINGS ON THIS WEBSITE) My reference: yahoo homepage/news 6-21-06, and testing it on friends .
22. A legitimate Vampire is able to safely digest more than 600% of the daily recommended amount of iron (RDA is 18mg. 600% of RDA is 108mg) when in the form of blood.
    (ALWAYS READ THE WARNINGS ON THIS SITE!)
23. How often do you look at the person that almost bumped (or bumped) into you and think "you idiot” or “people are so stupid" because they didn't know you were only a couple feet away from them, because you always know when someone is that close to you? (Which, when you think about it, you only know because you can sense when someone is that close to you).
24. Do you always feel a strong urge to travel?
25. How often does something smell so strong that you can literally taste it, whether it’s a good thing or a bad thing? (NOTE: When most people say it smells so strong that they can taste it they only say it as a figure of speech. And the people that agree with you when you say it rarely can taste it. Think I'm wrong? Ask them yourself!)
26. Can you hear a whisper from across a room?
27. Is there a dark colored ring around the iris (color part) of your eyes? All real vampires have this, however not everyone that has it is a real vampire.

30. Regardless of how normal you may consider yourself to be, do you tend to meet a lot of weird people that you quite often hit it off with relatively frequently? (Keep in mind, normal is just a politically correct term for people that have no creativity. And definitely is NOT something to be proud of calling yourself).
31. Do you have a predator instinct that is so strong that it makes most people seem to act more like herbivores than the omnivores they consider themselves to be?
32. Does sunlight/bright light in general hurt your eyes and head, in most cases to the point of a migraine? (But you can still go out in it). See point 17.
33. Do electrical appliances generally tend to hate you? (Watches mess up often, computers malfunction for no reason, etc).
34. Are your dreams often extremely vivid and sometimes result in cases of déjàvu?
35. Do people often find you very empathetic to how they feel?
36. Do people usually either trust you completely or not trust you at all?
37. When you will things to happen do they usually happen?

1. Does your mood have an obvious effect on the mood of others around you? Only count this if it happens to the people that can’t see you. (Especially on babies and animals like cats).

1. 1. FINDING A REAL VAMPIRE

   1. There will be a dark colored ring around the iris of their eye.
   
   
   
   2. There is generally a noticeably different color surrounding the pupil.
   
   
   
   3. A real vampires breathing will be slightly shallow at all times except for when they are extremely excited or upset.
   
   
   
   4. A real vampires heart rate usually will match the person's heart rate and speed that is next to them while they are sleeping, (or during sex).
   
   
   
   5. They will be able to change your moods, and feelings to however they are feeling at the time they are around you, (usually done without the vampire knowing that it’s happening.) (Babies and cats are very sensitive to this effect).
   
   
   
   6. Whenever you even glance at them, a real vampire will know that you are looking at them, usually knowing as your turning your eyes to look at them, even if all you are doing is glancing around the room. This automatically causes them to look right at you, at the same exact moment that you were looking at them, (you will think that they are staring at you, (usually causes nervousness). Don’t be nervous, (a real vampire can’t help it) and if you talk to your friends they will think they were being stared at nonstop as well, (which you know is impossible). No one can stare at multiple people at the same time, let alone a whole room of people, (unless in some cases the vampire is extremely distracted).
   
   
   
   7. Their aura will usually have a heavy, thick, dark feel to it. Real vampires even if they are energy users don’t tend to sense this from other real vampires half as well as normal people do, (seeing that they have adjusted to feeling it from themselves).
   
   
   
   8. My best friend (which is a very strong energy user (non-vampire), has told me that all chakras in my aura color wise, oddly appear to be in absolute perfect health even when he knows that I am sick. Sickness will happen to real vampires usually as often as it will to a person, just they don’t stay as sick for as long. He has noticed this in other real vampires as well.
   
   
   
   9. Most real vampires take on aspects of the animal that they admire the most. This includes strong mental traits, as well as some subtle physical features. Whatever type of animal this happens to be will react differently when around a real vampire. General first reaction is awareness and confusion/ curiosity, followed by a sort of mix between how they react to a human and another animal like them. (99% of the time reacting in a quick friendship).
   
   
   
   10. If holding eye contact with them either them in person or a picture where they were staring at the camera, for a few seconds or more. you will begin to feel an odd effect where it is harder than normal to look away as well as an odd pushing or pulling feeling against you, with the most likely effect of a cloudy white energy look distorting everything else in your eye sight, while looking in to their eyes for a short time.
   
   
   
   11. Are their nails clear like glass, yet very strong?
   
   
   
   12. Real vampires will always be able to find a shadow and will prefer to stand in the shadow as opposed to in the sun, doesn’t sound to abnormal until they start finding shadows in the middle of the night and preferring to be in those shadows as well. Also when accidentally banging their hand, elbow, shin, leg, etc. on a hard object they will only say ouch for show (or out of habit) if they think someone saw it happen, to appear normal, when in actuality they felt no pain at all. They didn’t even know it happened minus knowing that the body part touched something, (both submitted by a friend that is a wolfie).
   
   
   
   13. Their bedroom will usually be the coldest and darkest room in the house.
   
   
   
   14. Electronics that are around a real vampire often such as watches, computers, mps3 players, cellphones, and other electronics tend to malfunction in really odd ways.
   
   
   
   15. Real vampires tend to be very charismatic to some while having the complete opposite effect on other people.
   
   
   
   16. Real vampires tend to be extremely sensitive to sunlight and other bright lights, resulting in discomfort and most cases a migraine.
   
   
   Some of these could be passed off as just a coincidence, but how many coincidences can really happen at the same time for the same person before they realize that it’s not just a coincidence and actually should be telling them something. DR. Carl Jung, Synchronicity "the calculated odds of just 3 coincidences that are related to each other happening at one time in a random universe are astronomical", you have just read way more than just three of them, think about it.
   Keep in mind most vampires have no idea what they are, and most of them will never find out. When looking for a vampire locally probably the worst place to look is in vampire groups, they are generally over crowded with wannabes and posers. It's best to just use this page and go basically any where, just as an example we all go to the grocery store eventually.
   
   

   1. APPROACHING

    A VAMPIRE

   
   This is the easiest thing that you can ever do.

   If you have read the page finding a real vampire, and are sure that they are one, casually tell the person that he or she has vampire eyes. If they smile when you say it then they odds are they already know that they are one, and even if you aren’t one you will have their respect for being able to tell they are one while knowing enough about us not to freak out about it. Plus it will be a start to a good friendship.

   If they get a confused look, they didn't already know and you have a little explaining to do. (Not in a bad way) Just means you get to be the teacher, ask them about some traits that they may have i.e. things listed on the “knowing if you are a real vampire” page from this site. If they say yes to a lot of them and possibly start giving you the (how do you know that about me look), mention some of the parts that seem more unlikely.

   Around the time they give you that look, tell them that they are a real vampire. If they didn’t know they’re probably also pretty white in color. So tell them to eat a medium rare steak to get the color back that they haven't had in at least a few years, also the effect they will feel from the blood will help confirm that you were right. They will be convinced after they eat it if they aren't already. ( Don’t forget to tell them about this website) Tell them the perks of being one, most people do not consider being told they are one to be bad news after being told the perks.

   In the unlikely case they look mad or possibly scared that you were able to tell, explain that its not a bad thing that you know about it, that they’re safe with you knowing, and if you are one (as well), now would be a good time to be open and admit it to them. If their response is, vampires don't exist, vampires are evil, I'm not one of those, your nuts, or something along those lines, simply tell them to go to this site and leave it at that. If they don't say one of those things talk to them, become friends and tell them this site can help a lot.

   I am as open about this in person as I am about it online, any less and I would be a hypocrite. If you happen to see me and want to talk to me but aren't sure how to come up to me about it. Just call me Steve to make sure it's actually me to avoid an awkward situation, and talk to me as if we've all ready been friends for a few months. Don't be jokingly rude to me like you can be with your long time friends, simply keep it polite. To me a stranger is just a friend that I haven't met yet, until they prove otherwise.

   
   

   Energy

   Energy is....the unseen force within all things that makes them exist in the first place. We all know that we see things because light reflecting off of it stimulates the cones and rods in our retinas creating the illusion of an image. We know that we hear things because vibrations in the air and other forms of what we call matter makes our ear drums move, creating the illusion of sound. We feel things because different things activate different nerves in our body creating the illusion of touch. We smell because different scents trigger different olfactory nerves in our nose creating the illusion of smell. We taste because different things activate our different taste buds which send a signal to our brain creating the illusion of it having taste. Energy is the true thing that causes the stimulation to these different parts of our body, and energy is the electrical impulse traveling through our nerves to carry these messages to our brains. In truth energy is plain and simply the only thing that is real.

   I can't do this one in newtons (the scientific unit for measuring force) if aiming to convert it psychic energy or ability. However DISCOVER magazine October 2009 "The human brain runs on about 20 watts of power, equal to the dim light behind the pickle jar in your refrigerator." article Thinking Machine. That is not the whole body, that is just the brain hence the part of our body used in psychic ability. In english the dimmest light-bulb you can buy for a normal lamp is 40 watts, the human brain runs nonstop at half the amount of electricity as that light. Proven in at least two different ways by science over time (that I know of) it has been proven that the human body produces a small amount of light. First time it was photographed using kirilian coated film and more recently by Kyoto University; Tohoku Institute of Technology; human light.

   In the world of psychic ability we have all ways referred to this as the aura or psychic energy. When the term energy is used on this website or on this forum, that is what is meant by the term. A person that is highly actively psychic naturally uses more yet the body only produces so much of it. At this point we develope the need to learn to take it from other sources some of which include, people, animals, plants, "elements in nature" and other things of that sort. Some mistakenly call themselves vampires based on the need or ability to take energy from the previously named sources. But in truth they are not vampires, nor are they any where near being one. Anyone can learn to do these things, and anyone that does will find themselves low on energy until they learn to replenish it.

   Seeing Energy / Auras

   K***** wrote:
   ''When I actually think about it, the only time I can see energy at the moment even though I’m new to energy work, is when I close my eyes. Is that confusing that I see energy when I close my eyes?''

   Actually no, that’s not confusing that you see it when you close your eyes. Quite the opposite, when you close your physical eyes you force your mind to try to rely on its only other form of vision aka your third or psychic eye. Since you’re already doing that for you to learn to see it with your eyes open, simply open and close your physical eyes a few times and become aware of what’s happening with your psy eye as you close them. You will notice after a few tries that your center of focus shifts upwards a bit towards around the lower part of your forehead, as your third eye opens, for most people this happens completely naturally. To work on seeing energy with your eyes open simply practice shifting your focus up to your psy eye while your eyes are still open. Basically recreate the effects of what’s happening when you close your physical eyes but do it while they are open. Groups of trees and the tops of peoples heads are good things to practice on, covering your eyes with energy though you may see some is just going to make you see your own energy and at best distort the color of the energy that your trying to look at.

   
   

   Energy Balls

   To make energy balls, basically cup your hands about six inches apart from each other and focus energy between them.

   Or for extreme beginners

   Place your hands into small fists and hold them comfortably in front of you. Have one hand with your fingers up and the other with your fingers down. Now, keeping your fingers together open both hands slightly and close your fist again, kinda like a pulsing motion. After 3-4 times, take the hand that faces up, turn it over and the hand that faces down and turn it over, so they're switching

   After doing this for a while your hand will become tingly or warm (or however you perceive your energy) and then take it and cup your hands together, slowly. If you concentrate you'll be able to get a ball to form. Extend both energies from your hand into the space that will be the ball. It might be faint at first, but I've found this method to be rather effective.

   1. Imagine that energy is coming up from the core of the Earth and into your feet.
   2. Imagine it coming up into your legs.
   3. Imagine it going up into your stomach.
   4. Imagine it going into your shoulders.
   5. Imagine it going down your arms and pooling at your hands.
   6. Visualize your entire body "glowing" with energy.
   7. Imagine a hole opening up in your hands and energy flowing out into the shape of a sphere.

   
   

   Healing

   All healing that I have come across so far consisted of one of 4 different types of things.

   1. 1. Removing some thing that is bad or shouldn't be there.
   2. 2. Adding some thing that is missing but needs to be there.
   3. 3. Making more of some thing that they have to little of.
   4. 4. Simply repairing damage.

   **Mental illnesses being chemical imbalances do all fall in to the first three categories, but if your reading this to learn how to heal then you really aren't advanced enough to be fing with peoples brains.**

   1. 1. Every thing being energy you merely isolate the energy that shouldn't be there, and rap a shell of white energy around it and pull it out as an energy ball. Kind of like putting a bad thing in to a bio-hazard bag to isolate it.
   2. 2. Compare the energy of that area in the sick person to the energy in that area of a healthy person to see what the missing part looks like and copy the missing energy (don't take it just copy it) then give that copy to the person your healing. My friend Matt does this by feel, I do it by sight both ways work it just depends on which is your strong point.
   3. 3. Just like 2 except you don't copy it from some one else, also if some thing is off about the energy then fix it because that is likely whats causing the shortage in the first place.
   4. 4. Fill it with white energy, start from the sides and fill it in from there while making the white energy as dense as you can possibly make it, gold energy isn't as effective in this.

   
   ***Remember pain is not an illness, it is your bodies way of telling you that some thing is wrong and it needs to be fixed.***
   
   Some use this if a doctor fails, some use a doctor if this fails. If you try this first and things persist then never hesitate to see a doctor very soon.

   
   

   Safety Precautions

   I'm thinking that you’re worried about experimenting in energy use and possibly making something angry enough to kill you or physically cripple you. The stuff that can do that to you through astral, generally at the worst will just drain you of energy for awhile or knock you unconscious for about a few minutes to relay the message to you that they aren’t the one to play rough with. Other than that as long as you don’t break the big rule by messing with some one else’s free will you will be okay. Important notes, save playing with the energies in your mind for the very advanced because if you mess your mind up you will wind up going insane or create a few incurable problems. Good luck and I wish you some happy exploring.

   
   

   Energy Taking

   ##############

   
   

   Taking Energy Through The Internet

   Get their energy print/signature off of one of their posts, emails, instant messenger window, chatroom post, etc. locate its match on astral and get your taking on. Naturally the longer the post or e-mail etc. the easier it is to get their print off of it. If they use colored text, it helps a lot to close your eyes and look so that you aren’t distracted by the color of their font.

   
   

   Astral Projection

   Astral projection is basically just projecting your consciousness to somewhere else. The easiest way to learn it is by having you and a friend agree to meet in a certain spot in your dreams. To make sure you do it, just think a lot about that place you want to meet at, right as you are going to sleep. As long as you stick together when you see each other in the dream, you will have the same dream. At that point you are not in a normal dream; you are actually in the astral realm. After a few times you will be able to do it without having to go to sleep. (:-) talk about it to each other the next day)

   
   

   Astral Realm

   People refer to astral as having different levels and a place you can go to and leave. I will tell you that you’re always in the astral realm, that in this physical world which you see every thing has an energy form which is simultaneously in the astral realm. What you do to someone’s energy body on astral can have effects on their physical body, however not to the same degree that you see it happen to their energy body. People at different levels are able to hide themselves/mask themselves to other lower level users from being able to see them in that area, which to lower level users creates the image of there being different levels of astral realm.

   They will tell you there is less fighting on the higher levels. I will tell you that there is just as much, its just traceless for lower levels to see. (I speak from experience) You are simultaneously on every level that you can be aware of; the higher levels generally ignore the lower levels.

   Necromancy

   Definitely not recommended for people to practice these beliefs or put any of the information contained amongst the pages to use. However due to how frequently people ask me about it I have decided to put it in here. So here is the link for an online version of the Necronomicon.
