Archangel Uriel Visualisation for Inner Light

This morning I was visited by Archangel Uriel. I knew it was him, because I saw his bright red ruby ray behind my eyes, and I felt the distinctive, comforting energy that all angels bring with them. I was wondering why Uriel blessed me with his presence this morning, but at the time of writing, Russia has invaded Ukraine, and so many of us are concerned for the plight of the people there.

Reports and images on the news are very disturbing and upsetting, and there’s a lot of fear and darkness around right now. I feel Archangel Uriel wants us to remember to shine our own light powerfully, for ourselves and others, and that’s why he appeared to me today, although he’s not one of my regular Angel Crew.

Uriel’s name means ‘Light of God,’ or ‘Fire of God,’ and he’s the Angel of Light, Truth, Wisdom and Peace. It was Uriel who warned Noah of the Great Flood, and his wisdom can help resolve conflicts and calm down anger and hatred. In organised religion, he’s seen as one of the seven Archangels appointed by God to watch over humanity, so he’s certainly an angel for the present situation. Many of us feel helpless in the face of atrocity and suffering, and it can leave us overwhelmed. Asking Archangel Uriel to help us build our inner light can help a lot with the way we feel, and we can then extend that light to all who need it.

It’s a recognised spiritual truth that darkness can’t hide from the light, and we are all meant to be beings of light, so it’s important that we keep our vibrations high and shine our light brightly, both for ourselves and others. One of Uriel’s tasks is to give courage to soldiers going into battle, but his red ray and the symbol of fire are also connected with strength, confidence and courage, so he’s a strong angel to have on your side. In this visualisation, we’ll use Uriel’s fire and light to bring peace, hope and love to ourselves and others.

Visualisation to build and share your Inner Light

  • Sit comfortably and close your eyes. Ask Archangel Uriel to work with you to build and share your Inner Light. See him before you, in red robes.
  • Feel heat and warmth emanate from Uriel, like the sun on a hot summer day. He is now glowing with a golden yellow light.
  • Now feel that light enter your body, passing through your skin, travelling into your being, lighting and warming every cell in your body.
  • Bask in that light and warmth until you, too glow like Uriel, with a beautiful golden yellow light. Feel its warmth in your heart.
  • Imagine you are floating, high above your body. Look down and see your Inner Light glowing. Allow it to draw you back, into your body again. Know your light is bright and cannot be extinguished.
  • Ask Archangel Uriel to seal his light inside you by placing a ruby red cloak around your shoulders.
  • To send your light to others, see a dense, dark space in front of you. It’s impossible to distinguish any shape or form, but know there is someone or something there, in that darkness, who needs light to bring them out of the shadows. You may choose to send your light to a person or people, a country, or to the whole of Mother Earth.
  • Place your hands over your heart, feel the warmth of your Inner Light and send its golden beams out into the darkness before you. See the golden rays connect with the person, people or place you are envisaging. Gradually, their shape emerges through the shadows, glowing golden as you fill them with love and light. Feel their warmth and light, and bask in it together.
  • When you feel ready, ask Archangel Uriel to wrap them in a ruby red cloak to seal their Inner Light.
  • Once the cloak is in place, say these words, out loud or internally: ‘Archangel Uriel, thank you for sharing your light of wisdom, truth and peace with myself and with those who need light to bring them from the shadows of fear and anger into the light of joy and love. And so it is.’

You can do this visualisation any time you feel overshadowed or overwhelmed, or whenever you wish to send love and light to people, situations or countries, or even the whole of Mother Earth. Receiving and sending love and light is powerful energy work that will benefit yourself and the recipients. You will feel clearer and more confident about particular situations or life in general after performing this beautiful and powerful visualisation. Invite Archangel Uriel help you to banish shadows for yourself and others and feel the benefit of his loving presence.
