Lapis and The Archangels 

Use Lapis to invoke Archangel Michael and receive the gift of vision. Archangel Michael is rarely seen without his sword of truth and lovingly reminds you you have a sword of your own. Ask yourself what is my truth? Past the truth you speak there is a truth deeper inside. The knowledge you already possess and hold within your being. The essence of your soul is within. Lapis and Archangel Michael remind you to go within and call for the remembrance of your own divinity.  

Use Lapis to invoke Archangel Uriel to allow the illusions of this 3D plane to dissipate. You are not a prisoner to the programs or traumas of your experience. Archangel Uriel comes to you now turning your Eight of Swords upside down. In the traditional Tarot the Eight of Swords is represented as a woman bound by cloth and blindfolded. She is surrounded by Eight Swords. Each sword represents a different trauma - something someone said to her, someone that hurt her, even her own ego telling her she was not good enough.. and so on. But here’s the catch - she is not bound by chains, but only cloth. Only she can choose to release herself from this imprisonment. Lapis and Archangel Uriel bravely untie you from the paradigm and help you develop your own visionary faith.
