Message from Archangel Azrael featuring the symbolism of glass

Glass is a metaphor for an invisible barrier that in a positive way protects what we wish to carefully preserve, but that in a negative way keeps us from getting what we desire. Reaching our glass ceiling means that we feel restricted in reaching our full potential and unable to grasp meaningful opportunities that will elevate us to the next level of expansion and success. Glass represents both strength and vulnerability, because it is made and shaped in a way that makes it strong and durable yet it is easily breakable

when handled in the wrong way. Shattering glass spiritually signals a time of great transformation from one state of being to another. The old paradigm can no longer be sustained and change is imminent. It refers to a cycle of death and rebirth where the old is broken down, released and transformed in order to make room for a new way of being to arise within us.

As the Archangel of death and rebirth and of major life changes, the wise Archangel Azrael encourages us to embrace the shattering moments and experiences in our lives as opportunities for growth and deeper understanding of the layers we go through in our personal journeys.

Channeled message from Archangel Azrael

My beloved ones,

On this special day where love is the focus in many places around the world, it is my greatest joy and pleasure to convey to you that love is indeed the greatest catalyst for change. It is only your own belief in limitation and restriction that prevents this change from taking place in your life. Let us see how we can shatter the glass that surrounds your heart. Glass has the most wonderful quality of transparency, which enables you to truly see what lies behind it. The desires of your heart are clear and visible, yet there is a barrier that stops you from reaching for them. I would like to explore the freedom with you that comes from breaking your glass walls of protection and limitation and see what transformation awaits you on a new and fresh horizon!

I am Azrael, the Archangel of Death and Rebirth, and I guide you through the biggest transformation of all, which is the death of your physical body and your emergence as pure spirit and energy, but there are many more deaths that you will experience in your human life before this event. These deaths are deaths of change and growth and they are surprisingly more daunting to you than your actual physical death, because leaving behind your familiarities and stepping out of your comfort-zone conjures up intense feelings of anxiety and uncertainty. I have come to tell you that there is absolutely no need for distress as there are many angels, including myself, that are ready and willing to guide you every step of the way. Where other humans will fall away, leave you or fail to support you, there is a legion of angels that will never leave your side. They form a powerful field of energy and love around you and as your metaphorical glass breaks, they rejoice and carefully gather up the shards of glass, knowing that a new phase of expansion has opened up for you.

There are two ways in which glass may break. The first one is beyond your control due to external circumstances and the actions of others and the second one is by your own hand and it is this last option that I would like to further bring to your attention, because if you learn to break your own glass, you will encounter a lot less circumstancial glass shatterings. You take matters into your own hands, you take ownership and responsibility, and through this you will get to know your own power and potential. So, when and how, dear ones, do you start to break your own glass? As soon as you feel restricted, bored, or stuck in your present circumstances, you need to metaphorically pick up whatever glass object feels the most suitable to you in your imagination and throw it onto the ground until it breaks into many glistening little pieces. After that you declare yourself open to new inspiration, a new mind-set, new beliefs and new experiences. Let me enlighten you a little bit more on this subject.

I begun my message by telling you that love is the greatest catalyst for change, which means that the breaking of you glass needs to be done in a spirit of love, not in one of anger, disappointment or resistance. It is an act of pure love that initiates the start of something brand new. Love equals openness, lightness, joyfulness and flow. There is nothing restrictive about love, it flows towards the people and things that resemble its energy frequency and thus, if the things you desire are of that nature, you must rise towards that in spirit yourself to match that particular energy. Most people who wish to break through their metaphorical glass limitations are solely focused on what this newly opened up horizon will bring them personally, but even more power, momentum and improvement can be generated if you incorporate the greater good for all. Instead of asking yourself what is in it for you, you ask the question: How can I contribute to a better and brighter world for others as well? You acknowledge that your growth means a surge in growth for all, because we are all one.

This is the true spirit of love, creating a legacy around what you care about. However, you can only accomplish this if you are filled up on the inside with love and compassion yourself. Changing your mind-set to one of service and contribution means you must be willing to nurture yourself first, otherwise you will have nothing meaningful to give. Remember also, dear ones, that breaking through your glass restrictions, does not mean that others will do the same. They might not be ready for the shattering of glass just yet, and so you might travel without them for a while, without them, but for them at the same time, because you travel in a spirit of love and oneness, most of all. Breaking your glass might startle others, but do not get sidetracked by their reactions, keep on going, because in your discovery of new layers of existence and understanding you will bring tremendous love and light into your world and we are so grateful for your courageous progress!
