A Short Guide On How To Spot Your Guardian Angels
Updated 2025.06.02
Did I See An Angel? In this post we discuss -
A few weeks ago, a friend approached me about a stream of Light that she saw in the sky while she was in the car driving home.
Diagonally above her to the right, a blue light at eye-level flying across the sky.
Astronomical events aside, sometimes these light flashes can be the appearance of Angels.
Depending on the person, the experience and the Angel, the stripe of light can be any color of the rainbow.
It can appear more like a flash or a glimmer.
Sometimes, it's a ball of light that glows like a floating, travelling orb.
Guardian Angels, Archangels and all other Angel types are beings of Divine Light, who exist primarily at high vibrations of energies in the universe.
They generally glow a near fluorescent light and can be seen by the different types of light they emit as they travel through the skies supporting Earth.
Angels are often genderless in being and form, and they don't need a physical body to define their characteristics, so sometimes they appear as light energy and save the energy they would've used to appear in full regalia for their messages.
You may have already seen your Guardian Angels in your mind's eye in meditations, and most of us have at least 2 guardians watching over us at any time.
It is possible to see the full form of your Angel in a dream, surrounded by light, or in your meditations, as an entire physical being, glowing of light, but this post is about how to spot them externally.
To spot your Guardian Angels, first, open up your psychic sight by widening and softening your gaze.
Relax your eyes and your body.
Now try seeing your Guardian Angels by looking for these 3 forms -
1 - A ball, streak, or flash of light
Blue, green, and orange colors are most common.
Blue represents Archangel Michael. Green represents Archangel Raphael. Orange often represents Archangel Uriel.
You may also see white, gold or pink sparkles.
Each Angel or Archangel has a different color of frequency depending on their specific role or task, learn more here:

2 - Pay your attention to what you see in the corners of your eyes
Angels and many other beings of light live in a realm of higher and faster vibrational energy, so they can almost seem like a darting image.
Also, the higher the vibration, the lighter, and more diffuse the energy.
This is why they often appear to float, to be glowing or to be higher off the ground than those with a physical body.
There is some evidence to suggest that it’s easier to see movement in your peripheral vision than it is straight on.
It’s also easier to see via your peripheral vision in low lighting.
Because Angelic energy can be fast moving and Angelic energy can appear in the evenings when it’s easier to see subtle energies, you will want to keep in mind that what you see “out of the corner of your eye” can be valuable.
3 - Listen during spiritual and quiet moments
See with sound.
Angels indeed communicate at a high frequency, usually at the level of a high pitched sound wave if it were to be audible to us by our physical ears.
Some people hear Angelic energy as a gentle singing - these are usually the Seraphim or Cherubs, who are known for their melodious sounds.
When moments pause in time happen, such as personal moments of revelation, or when the world is quiet, is when we can often hear this sound.
Tune into this sound and ask them to step forward once you hear them.
It’s possible to see Angels almost as a holographic image over a space or as a soft glow.
To recap, to spot your Guardian Angels:
Wide your gaze, pay attention to Light flashes
Look up, at angles and diagonally, the eye can see energy around your field of view in certain situations
See if you can hear them, then tune in to the energy and ask them to step forward
Remember - you can also feel the Angelic around you too, so if you notice any of the above happening, tune into how you feel for confirmation.
Angelic energy often has a peaceful, calm and harmonious feel to it.
They can wrap their glowing light around you to impart this feeling onto you - so feel free to ask to sense it as well.
