VaYeitzeh (Shabbat - Sat. 25th November – 7th Kislev) 

Keep an Eye on Your Angels

SUMMARY: Angels depicted by7 the Rennaissance painters are not an accurate reflecting of the Jewish teaching of what an angel is.  And angel is an abstract force that is created also by our words and deeds.  The angelic forces affect the world and become a positive or negative expression of who we are. 

Notes:
• Angels:  Whether in a Bernini, or a Giotto, or a Raphael or a Chagall, those haloed cherubic faces with child-like bodies with gossamer wings are how we imagine angels to look like. Not so, teaches the deeper spiritual masters.
• Angels are Mal’achim, literally energy transformations that effect change or maintenance of the world - abstract interfaces between higher realms – a spiritual messaging service. 
• One such instance is described in this week’s parsha of Vayeitzeh – Jacob’s ladder – a dream he has of angels rising and descending a ladder that connects heaven and earth. 
• The masters inform us that these angelic forces were the energetic products of Jacob’s words of evening prayer before he fell asleep. And these angelic forces induce counterforces to descend in response to their ‘message’. 
• Everything we say or do creates an effect – or, creates an angel, a butterfly effect. Even the subtle seemingly inconsequential flapping of butterfly wings creates a flow-on effect  that forever changes the weathere patterns of the world. So do our actions affect the world.
• So when you open your mouth and speak or carry out the most minor of acts, be mindful, deliberate, because you are, like a Divine sculptor, reshaping the nature of the world. Your angels are doing the work.
