The Angelic Hierachy

Why do angels have an hierachy? What makes one 'better' than another? Aren't they all equals like we are?

From my understanding, none are better than the other, They simply have different roles like innerlight posted.

Yeah that makes sense, like us down here, some are road sweepers others are brain surgeons but no one is any better or worse than anyone else.

Yep, the spirit of the age of aquarius.

What is the age of aquarius? I keep hearing and reading it but what is it?

Mankind has invented different ages according to the zodiac, for example the age of gemini is when man really delved into the written word. The age of Aquarius is said to be a period of enligtenment. It is the time period when our earth will enter the photon belt.

Ahhh...thanks Metal Dog, do you know what the next 'age' will be or isn't it known yet?

I would assume it would be so there is some sort of order. For without order there would be chaos.

Do you think so, even amongst 'higher beings'

the age of aqurius. the ages follow the zodiac. and strangley enough so does the evolution of man. imagine that!

Violet wrote:Do you think so, even amongst 'higher beings'

Yes but you figure they would govern us all. So if order was there to keep us in line, or to have things flowing properly, they would also have to follow it. Otherwise it would create more chaos as others would get jealous that a certain group got to do whatever they wanted.

I hadn't thougt of it like that

It would also help us to know which one we would be looking for. If you needed some help with a relationship issue you would know which Angel to seek out as you would find the Angels that deal with relationships.

Yeah they all do different things don't they

My understanding is that the Angel Heirarchy is made up by angels that have evolved at different levls, so the higher the angel the more evolved it is - and they are seeking further enlightenment like us and can evolve further if they complete the lessons set.

Yes that makes sense to me too actually.
