The Angel of Freedom

Work with the Angels for Guidance and Inspiration

The Angel of Freedom blesses us and helps us realize the freedom of the divine spirit within us. It offers untold gifts when we allow freedom to be an integral part of our lives. We need only to desire the experience of our freedom and this angel will assist us in knowing it at every turn. It will help us realize that freedom is who we are. There are many aspects to freedom, and this angel will show us the numerous ways in which we can share in its gift. It may mean freedom from the constraints of our worldly existence. It could as well mean a deep experience of who we are at core, and that is an awareness rather than something we do. It is not freedom from something as much as freedom to be ourselves which this angel brings to our consciousness.

If you draw The Angel of Freedom UPRIGHT the card has the following meanings:

The Angel of Freedom generally shows that you are at a crossroads – one with only two options i.e. in or out, up or down, yes or no. You may find yourself very much wanting to do ‘something’ but having no idea what it is or how to do it. If that happens, that’s a clear sign that you should stop, relax, and look at ways that you might need to let go of attempts to control life/situations/people/things.

Upright Meanings: boredom, feeling trapped, rebirth, confined, uncertainty, lack of direction, self-limiting, reversal, change, needing release, improvement, suspension

The Angel of Freedom card indicates that you are in a situation that you are not happy with. You may be feeling like you are stuck in a rut or trapped in a situation or frame of mind that is not making you happy but you have the power to release yourself. This may involve walking away from the situation or simply changing your perspective on it. The Angel of Freedom may also signify that you may be facing a dilemma and are unsure of what path to take. You may feel that things are not turning out the way you planned with this major card appearing in your spread. You need to step outside yourself and look at your situation from a different angle. Give yourself time to just relax, stop trying to control things and just let them be, the correct course of action will become clear to you in time.

If you draw The Angel of Freedom REVERSED this angel card has these meanings:

Including when it comes up in reversal, The Angel of Freedom generally shows a life or situation at a crossroads – one with only two options e.g. in or out, up or down, yes or no. This is not a time to attempt to control people, outcomes or situations, it is a time to look critically at yourself and your options, and to be deliberate in your progress. If you do not know what to do, at all, its often a clear signal to do nothing.

Reversed Meanings: discontentment, useless sacrifice, false prophecy, unwillingness, impulsiveness, apathy, disinterest, stagnation, negative patterns

The Angel of Freedom reversed can indicate that you are being impulsive and making rash decisions as a way to distract yourself from some sort of inner discontentment. This major card generally shows that you may be jumping from one bad situation to the next without considering where this behavior is taking you. Ask yourself if there are feelings you trying to avoid confronting or changes that you know need to be made but are reluctant to tackle. If there are, consider what you fear will happen if you do? If you genuinely don’t know what to do in terms of your direction in life, just stop, breathe and wait for things to become clearer. However, if you know your behavior patterns are not working for you, change them. Your attitude towards your life will determine life’s attitude towards you!
