Connecting with Archangel Michael for Protection & Courage

Ever wish you had a personal guardian angel—especially during turbulent times?
Look no further than Archangel Michael, a celestial beacon of courage, justice, and unwavering protection.

At The Mystical Moon, I’ve created sprays, candles, and incense aligned with Archangel Michael’s powerful vibration, so you can invite his presence into your daily life in a tangible way. Today, I’ll share his history and symbolism, how to connect with him through crystals, herbs, oils, altars, and even a simple yet enlightening 3-card tarot spread.

Who Is Archangel Michael?

Far beyond his presence in sacred texts, Archangel Michael is an enduring symbol of bravery, protection, and integrity. Often visualized wielding a radiant sword of light, he represents the power to cut through all that no longer serves us—fear, regret, limiting beliefs, and even old emotional cords.

When you call upon Michael, you’re asking for clarity, strength, and divine protection on every level—physical, emotional, and spiritual.

Symbols That Speak Volumes

Michael’s most recognizable emblems—the sword and the scales—are rich with meaning.

• The sword: Represents truth, decisive action, and the ability to cut away negativity.

• The scales: Reflect justice, fairness, and balance in all areas of life.

These symbols remind us that Michael not only protects but also restores harmony and integrity.

Creating an Archangel Michael Altar

One powerful way to welcome Michael’s energy is by setting up a dedicated altar. This sacred space can be as simple as a small shelf or table where you place items that carry his vibration:

• Crystals: Lapis Lazuli for wisdom, Clear Quartz to amplify intention, Black Tourmaline for grounding and protection.

• Herbs & Oils: Lime for clearing negativity, Black Pepper for courage and strength.

• Intention Tools: Our Archangel Michael Spray to purify your space, or our Archangel Michael Candle to anchor his energy during prayer and meditation.

This altar becomes a beacon—calling his protective presence into your space and life.

Emotional Freedom with Archangel Michael

Michael’s energy doesn’t just shield; it liberates. He helps sever emotional cords to past relationships, disappointments, or fears that keep us stuck. Through prayer, intention, or visualization, you can ask him to help you cut away these attachments, creating space for healing, joy, and forward movement.

Crystals for Connection

• Lapis Lazuli: Aligns with Michael’s essence of truth and divine wisdom.

• Clear Quartz: The “master healer” that amplifies your prayers and intentions.

• Black Tourmaline: Grounds and shields, echoing Michael’s protective nature.

Herbs & Oils

• Lime: Clears away stagnant or negative energy.

• Black Pepper: Sparks courage and empowers your will.
  You can diffuse these oils, add a drop to your altar items, or anoint candles (always testing for skin sensitivity first).

A Restful Night’s Sleep

If the day’s burdens weigh heavy on your heart, call on Michael before bed. Ask him to cut any cords to stress or worry so you can drift into deep, peaceful rest. Many find that placing our Archangel Michael Candle nearby or misting the Archangel Michael Spray on pillows creates a soothing nighttime ritual.

Prayer to Archangel Michael

I invoke Archangel Michael with the 5th dimensional tube of Light.
Michael, please place this tube of light around me in this lifetime and in all lifetimes,
all planetary systems and all source systems, all alternate realities and all parallel realities,
all alternate universes, and all parallel universes, as well as all source systems, in this time and in all times.
Michael, use your sword of light to clear me of all foreign energies, all thought forms, and beings,
and when I am clear, escort these energies into the tube of light and return them to the fifth dimension
to be transmuted to another form of light.
Close up my aura to the influences of all beings except of my higher self, the God consciousness, my guides and guardians.
So be it, and so it is.

Use this spread when you need clarity, protection, or guidance:

Keep a piece of Lapis Lazuli or a bottle of Lime Oil close, and let our Archangel Michael Spray, Candle, and San Miguel Incense become part of your ongoing connection to this powerful guardian.
