For more information, visit the Order of Archangel Michael website. I, Michael, come to you to heal that which in you is fear, for I am the Protector, and I carry the Sword of Light. I protect this Universe, and I bring you now the knowledge that each of you is surrounded by the Light, and I ask you to arm yourselves with the Purest Love of the Universe.... Imagine the hottest flame in existence; it is that Flame which is beyond heat. It is the flame of Love, Pure Love, that comes to you. That is what I am made of; that is what the Sword of Light is made of; that is your protection and your cleansing. If you choose, allow the Blue-White Flame to encompass you, and invite that flame that stems from the Sword of Michael to heal, to clear, to cleanse any negative thought, any part of you that is touched by grief, by anger, by fear. ~ Archangel Michael channeled through Diana Henderson, September 13, 2001 Awakening the Order of Archangel MichaelTM The Order of Archangel Michael is an interfaith and non-denominational group of individuals—open to anyone who feels the call to participate. The next opportunity to join will be on October 12, 2008, in Raleigh, North Carolina. As always, this gathering will include a channeling, an initiation and an activation or opening of the crown and brow chakras to the energies of Archangel Michael (according to the readiness of the initiate). In addition to sounding a clarion call to those who feel drawn to participate for the first time, Archangel Michael encourages current members to attend in order to receive this special gift of vibrational upliftment. As in many previous initiations, again we will send out a vibration intended to balance planetary energies in order to provide greater equilibrium to Mother Earth. The initiation activates and aligns your inner Sword of Light in harmony with Archangel Michael's Sword of Light. Once activated, the sword within beckons you to follow your path, to rise up and meet the vision before you, to be fully human in order to remember what it means to be fully Divine. With natural creative spirit, we gatefully carry that knowledge forward with a sense of honor and dedication as we awaken to the Renaissance of Spirit. Order
of Archangel Michael Initiation: When: Sunday, October 12, 2008, 2:00 PM (ends at approximately 5:00 PM) Induction into the Order of Archangel MichaelTM is an energetic experience that may differ from individual to individual. What one receives from the initiation will be in accordance with his/her own readiness and willingness to receive. Potential Benefits of the Order of Archangel MichaelTM initiation:
The initiation is a kind of compassionate "call to arms" as at this time in history we are asked to stand with the Light, to banish the darkness within our own hearts through Love and healing, to bring forth peace upon this planet. Note: The Order of Archangel Michael is not intended to supersede or replace anyone's religious practices or beliefs. We accept members from all faiths. Aligning with Michael's light can amplify our most loving intentions for healing and enlightening all. Open to all who feel called to receive this blessing, the initiation is offered in the Raleigh, NC, area, and OoM Founder Diana Henderson also occasionally travels to perform the initiation for groups elsewhere. In addition, it's possible for those who live at a distance from the venue where the initiation is held to participate. (Details on distance initiation procedures are sent via email after a person registers.) Archangel Michael [Hebrew Mikha'el, Arabic Mika'il, or Mikha'il], whose name in Hebrew means "Perfect One of God" or "who is like unto God," carries the essence of the spiritual warrior and is the Protector of humanity. Even though anyone can call on Archangel Michael for assistance at any time, the initiation heightens and enhances our connection to his energy and opens us more completely to that energy's capacity for awakening our innate gifts. For many people, the initiation promotes greater awareness energetically and intuitively. The third eye and crown chakras are attuned by Michael's energy during the initiation, enabling us to access that greater awareness more easily when we are ready to do so. Our inner Sword of Light is also awakened during the initiation, which strikes a chord and sends the resounding message to the Universe that we are ready to stand with the Light and live in alignment with the True Self. The initiation often puts people more in touch with their life or soul purpose and can lead us onto that path or enhance our pathwork if we're already walking our walk. From Christopher Bamford's introduction to The Archangel Michael: His Mission and Ours, by Rudolf Steiner: "Michael cannot fulfill his mission without humanity's cosmic vocation of freedom, individuality and love. Human beings, too, depend on Michael for the fulfillment of their task . . . His great joy is helping those who of their own free deed enter the ranks of those collaborating in the great work of the invisible." By becoming initiated into the Order of Archangel Michael, we indeed join the ranks of those who collaborate with the Divine. We within the Order of Archangel MichaelTM are on a journey of awakening. It is time to embrace the Light within and accept with love the truth the soul knows. Let us make the ultimate choice of free will to know complete humanness and love humanity in its entirety.

Council of Light, channeled October 5, 2001
"The wings of Michael outstretch and touch the hearts and souls of those who will be quickened, awakened or reawakened into the Order."
"It is time to awaken those within the Order. Some shall be awakened to the Order merely for this lifetime in this crucial moment upon your planet, and some shall be awakened for all time. Some are merely being reawakened into the Order from whence they came. It is a gift and a privilege to serve the Light of the Father, of Creator, by bearing the Sword and the Shield of Light and Love.
"What does it mean to join the Order of Michael? The meaning in this instance is twofold. First, those who are being reawakened were already of the Order of Michael, of this angelic realm of Light and of the service of Michael, which serves the Creator by carrying the Sword and Shield of Light to cleanse, to heal, to Love, to enlighten, to bring about enlightenment and to fight the battles of the Light. Some are reawakening to this purpose; they are the warriors of the Light. They are that which, through the Ultimate Love, bring the Light to every darkened corner of this Universe, to every darkened soul. And so this is the first group that comprises the Order.
"The second is this: There will be some who shall be called unto this Order who are from other realms of Light, souls who in the past have not been of the Order of Michael but who are asked in this life, in this time, to fight the battles of the Light—to heal themselves completely, to conquer all their inner demons—so that they might be of utmost service in bringing forth the Shift toward Ascension. And those who are called for this lifetime shall be much like the Priesthood of Melchizedek. They are being called to take up the Sword, to purify themselves, to love themselves ultimately, purely and completely so that they might bring that same Love to every person they encounter, to every being in need of enlightenment. The members of the Order are being called to teach; they are being called to cleanse; they are being called to battle against the darkness, to stand with the Light. It is a great calling and a great service. They may choose to assist us in this lifetime by bringing the Sword of Light into your world in its fullness to unfold the Truth, to shine Light upon the darkness, to allow the Light to emerge from within and without and cleanse all upon this planet.
"So this is what the calling consists of. These are the ones who will come into the Light of Michael. Some of them already serve in one form or another, but they need the additional quickening, for that is what this is, a quickening, the Sword of Light becoming activated within them—within their bodies, within their psyches, within their energy fields, within their beings.
"These initiates shall be asked to serve in many ways. From time to time when this is necessary, those in the Order shall be asked to stand with me, to carry the Light into the Darkness upon the astral plane, to cleanse the darkness from the ethereal regions closest to the Earth. But first they must conquer the darkness within themselves, cleanse their own beings. They will be asked to become as purified by their inner Sword of Light as they may and then to assist others to heal in this way. Some will be asked to become healers; some already are. And when we speak of healers, we mean those who bring the healing through them—their own beings healed already—who are willing to serve and offer this healing to all who are ready to receive it. The healing of Michael is the cleansing fire of purest Love. It is the healing that banishes from the being all darkness. It is the healing that transmutes the negative thought-forms into the Light. Those who are initiated into the Order will be asked to touch their own sword of light to my Sword of Light, and from that sword they shall enlighten all around them.
"There is much more. This is only the beginning, but what needs to be understood is that the Sword is a cleansing, the Sword is a healing; the Sword is enlightenment. And the Order that comes forth is being quickened to bring healing, to bring enlightenment, to banish the darkness first within themselves and then within this world—not only in the world that is physically manifested as you see it but also within the energetic bodies and upon the astral plane. Their work shall encompass cleansing and healing and teaching others to cleanse and heal themselves. Their work shall embrace all this and more and shall hasten the time of Ascension."
Although I feel humbled by the task of offering
these initiations, I have been called by Archangel Michael and the
Council of Light to be one who awakens the Order of Michael in our
time. After many months of reticence and soul searching, I could no
longer ignore this message of October 2001; so I chose to honor this
calling to the best of my ability beginning the task at the time of the
Solstice in2002, which seems most appropriate. ~ Diana
