Archangel Zadkiel

Archangel Zadkiel serves on the Seventh Ray, the violet ray of freedom. He is the Archangel of mercy and forgiveness, and the angelic guardian of the violet flame, the spiritual fire that changes heavy, painful energy back into light.

The Seventh Ray is the ray of the age now beginning. For that reason Zadkiel, with Archeia Holy Amethyst and the Ascended Master Saint Germain, is very close to everyone who has taken up the path of ascension in this time.

Role in the Ascension

No one can rise while holding on to the past. Every soul carries records of what it has done and what has been done to it, across this life and others. The teachings call this karma. Zadkiel's work is to help those records be forgiven and dissolved, so that the lessons remain and the weight does not.

He teaches that forgiveness is not approval, and it is not forgetting. It is the decision to stop feeding a wound. The violet flame is the means by which that decision becomes real in the subtle bodies.

When to Call on Zadkiel

• Forgiving others, and forgiving yourself
• Releasing guilt, shame and regret
• Breaking habits and patterns that repeat
• Tolerance and tact in difficult company
• Transmuting the atmosphere of a home, a workplace or a memory

Signs That Zadkiel Is Near

• Violet, purple or deep lilac light, often seen with the eyes closed
• A sensation of something lifting from the shoulders or chest
• Old memories surfacing without their usual sting
• A spontaneous feeling of goodwill toward someone who wronged you
• A sense of lightness and space after prayer or decree

How to Work With Zadkiel

1. Sit quietly and bring to mind something you are ready to release.
2. Ask Zadkiel and the angels of the violet flame to surround you.
3. See violet fire rising from beneath your feet, passing up through the body and out above the head. It is cool and causes no harm.
4. Say: I forgive, I am forgiven, and I am free. Repeat it slowly until you feel it land.
5. Give thanks. Return to the practice daily until the matter no longer has a charge.

An Invocation

Archangel Zadkiel, angel of the violet ray,
blaze your flame of mercy through me.
Transmute every record of pain,
in me, behind me and around me.
I forgive and I am forgiven.
By your grace I am free.

A Word From Archangel Zadkiel

You think forgiveness is a gift you give to the one who harmed you. It is a door you open for yourself. They may walk through it or not. You are the one who has been waiting in the room.

Bring us what is heavy. We do not weigh it. We do not ask where it came from. We only make it light again.
