What Are Guardian Angels?
Guardian Angels are spiritual beings that are thought to be assigned to protect and guide people in various ways. Whether there is one angel per person, one angel for several person or several angels for one person is open to question; however whether you believe in guardian angels or not, or whether you want a guardian angel or not, believers insist that you do have a guardian angel.
What Are The Assignments of Guardian Angels?
Guardian Angels are believed to intercept at many times in peoples’ lives and assist wherever they can to make our lives run more smoothly. At times Guardian Angels may inspire a thought to spur us into action, or Guardian Angels may lend us super-human strength, such as in the case of a woman being able to lift a car long enough to free her trapped child. In fact, there are many guardian angel stories where people are touched by an angel, which are often put down to luck or coincidence rather than to believe that there are truly guardian angels among us. However for those of us who have been touched by an angel there is no doubt that the miracle touch of a hand of Light was behind it.
Etymology
Guardian is from the Middle English word "gardein", from Anglo-Norman, from Old French "gardien", from alteration of gardenc, from garder, to guard; see guard. The Guardians are technically angels.
- The word angel derives from the Latin "angelus", which in turn is the Romanization of the Ancient Greek "ἄγγελος" (angelos) or "messenger", which is related to the Greek verb "ἀγγέλλω" (angellō), meaning "bear a message", "announce", and "bring news of" etc.
Reality
An Angel (from the Greek ἄγγελος - aggelos) is a supernatural being or spirit, usually humanoid in form, and can be found in various religions and mythologies. They are benevolent, celestial beings who act as intermediaries between Heaven and Earth, or as guardian spirits or a guiding influence.
The Angelic host believes in strict discipline and order and wages a constant battle for the sake of all creation against the demonic hordes of the Burning Hells who seek to turn existence into pure chaos and enslave humanity for their own ends. Angels are beings of pure light and sound, as they are born when all of the High Heavens are in perfect harmony.

- Metatron (translation is disputed, may mean "keeper of the watch", "guardian", or "he who sits behind the throne of Heaven"), God's heavenly scribe recording the deeds of all that is.
Fallen Angels
They are wicked or rebellious angels. fallen angels were corrupted by their desires, and objectives to achieve the perfection of power.
- Sataniel/Satan (translation: the adversary), tempts humans, serves as an adversary, and brings people's sins before them in the heavenly court.
- Lucifer (translation: shining one or morning star), was a powerful archangel, but was corrupted by his own pride and desire for perfection and power. He is identified with Satan or The Devil.
