Angel Message — 444
What could this possibly mean?
I tend to pay close attention to angel numbers. I see them constantly throughout the day from various places — clocks, addresses, phone numbers, etc. Today’s message came in the form of the time on my clock as I logged into the internet — 4:44 am.
So, of course, I had to pop over to my favorite Angel Numbers website and see what this number was all about. (Note: I get this number a lot, so I already know what it means, but for the purpose of this essay, I want to show you, my readers, what it means)
The first thing I notice is that the number 4 vibrates with Archangels. How exciting! I channel Archangels Michael, Raphael, and Metatron (although channeling Metatron is usually for my Reiki Master and a friend in Virginia since he is their guiding Archangel). Michael is my go-to Archangel for just about everything. However, I channel Raphael whenever I have health and well-being related questions. If I am doing Reiki work or the Merkabah breath technique, then I do channel Metatron to assist me. It is exciting to know that the Archangels have contacted me this morning.
The number 4, as described by Joanne, represents the following:
practicality and responsibility, productivity, illumination and initiation, building solid foundations, stability and ability, honesty and inner-wisdom, determination and endurance, hard work and progress. Number 4 also represents our passion and drive and encourages us to work harmoniously yet diligently to achieve our goals and aspirations. Number 4 is also the number that represents the four elements of Air, Fire, Water and Earth, and the four sacred directions, North, South, East and West. With three 4’s appearing, the influences and energies of the number 4 are magnified and enhanced.
Just what does a magnified and enhanced 444 mean then? Joanne describes it as remain steady on your current life path, but pay attention to your intuition and inner-wisdom. And by all means, continue to work with the Archangels and allow them to be your guides. 444 also means that is is time for action, but also that “all is well” which is an inspiring message for me right now.
One other thing worth noting — this 444 is also the essence of 3. How cool is that? Threes surround me all the time. From my second favorite place on Angel numbers, here is a description of the number 3:
Angel number 3 is a highly spiritual number which resonates with the vibrations and energies of encouragement, assistance, communication, freedom, adventure, inspiration, creativity, social, easy-going, the visionary, humor, energy, growth, expansion, expression, openness, spontaneity, broad-minded thinking, optimism, faith, hope, psychic ability, social, self-expression, and imagination.
Seeing angel number 3 is a reminder that the Ascended Masters are all near you, responded to your prayers, and will assist you in achieving your soul mission.
Now that I’ve received my Angel message, how can I incorporate it into my daily life? Since I usually record these Angel messages in a notebook, I thought it would be interesting to give you, my readers, a glimpse at how I use these messages.
First, I get out my pendulum and open a channel to the Archangels. Although Michael is my main Archangel, I will allow any of them to come through. Today, Metatron came through. I was a bit surprised, but I do love his energy. And his arrival shouldn’t really be that shocking to me. I had a discussion with my therapist Wednesday and discovered that although I have released my past and forgiven everyone who harmed me, I still have inner work to do concerning the relationship with my sister. It is based on fear of loss, so this will take a lot of healing. Metatron is a wonderful guide for this kind of work.
The next thing I do is to pull a tarot card ( I use the Gilded Tarot deck) and see where I need further guidance. Today’s card is
The Page of Swords
According to the companion book to the tarot deck, Barbara Moore describes the Page of Swords as this:
You are ready to face a new challenge. The theory and logic is clean to you; you have all the tools you need; you know exactly what to do and how to do it. Yet you feel inexplicably scared. Your fear isn’t unusual, though. There is no substitute for experience — and that is something you don’t have at this point. Know that regardless of the outcome, you will have done the best you possibly can.
How very apropos! The suit of swords in tarot represents Air or fire, and challenges, intellect, and ways of thinking. Yes, this situation with my sister is a new challenge. Normally anything to do with my family I tend to avoid those situations altogether. However, she is my only surviving family left, having already lost my mother, father and brother. So this is all new to me, but also very important to me. I will definitely need to use my intellect and possibly change my way of thinking about this situation.
Lastly, I will mediate on the combination of the Angel message and the tarot card drawing. Normally, my path forward isn’t as straight forth as it is today. Sometimes I will have to spend days or weeks meditating on what it all means and where I may need to do the necessary work. Today, I believe it is pretty clear. With Metatron’s help and the knowledge that this is a new challenge for me, I will have the tools to move forward and resolve this issue with my sister. And should I fail, well at least I tried. And that is a far cry from my responses in the past.
