The Angelic Host are recognised as both Archangels and Angels.
The Archangels are the Hierarchy, or the Architects of The Creator's inspiration, and the Angels help to carry out their work.
There are many Archangels, but the four most well known are:-
Raphael: Michael: Gabriel: and
Uriel
These Great Beings are deemed to be the protectors of humanity, and have been conjured up as images over thousands of years.
They are glorious in their magnitude, and are said to stand at the four corners of the world, representing symbolically the values of Peace, Courage, Love and Strength.
Although portraying an ideal, it is no accident that the description of these Archangels came into being, for the ancients took their inspiration from the 4 points of the compass and, following the path of the sun, they placed:-
Raphael in the East
Michael in the South
Gabriel in the West
Uriel in the North
From that point onwards it was easy to align
East with Dawn,
South with Midday,
West with Dusk,
North with Midnight,
and from there, to build up further correspondences relating to ages, elements, colours and further ideals etc., which helped to create the images as we know them today.
We are told that The 4 Great Archangels can be visualised as brilliant forces of immensity power and light, that surround us whenever we choose to call upon their presence.
When we ask them for protection we can see them as 4 brilliant pillars of force, locked close around us in such a way as to repel all intruders; their massive wings of rainbow colours in expansive spread, each touching the other to form a vast circle of light, through which nothing dangerous can penetrate, and their enchantment lasts from dawn to dusk, and dusk to dawn.

Saudade:
Saudade é solidão acompanhada,
é quando o amor ainda não foi embora,
mas o amado já... 
Saudade é amar um passado que ainda não passou,
é recusar um presente que nos machuca,
é não ver o futuro que nos convida...
Saudade é sentir que existe o que não existe mais...
