Archangel Raphael is the healing aspect of the Lord. He is known as the physician of the angelic realm, the divine healer for healing ourselves and for helping to find the inner guidance, love, compassion, balance and inspiration to heal others.
Raphael is one of the seven ruling angels or princes. He is one of the only three angels recognised by the Christian Church, along with Michael and Gabriel. He is also known as the chief of the guardian angels, and patron of travellers. He is often depicted carrying a caduceus or a pilgrim carrying a staff in one hand and a bowl of healing balm in the other. As over-lighting angel of healing, Archangel Raphael has the capacity to guide us in all our healing work - whether orthodox or complementary.
