Coffee and Donuts with Michael

I once had coffee and donuts with Archangel Michael.

Ok. That sounds odd, I know. But indulge me for a few paragraphs. I think you will find the payoff worth the time.  

For me communication with the non-physical is perfectly normal occurrence. And I’m here to let you know that Archangel Michael wants it to be normal for you, too.

As for me, I have always been able to talk to spirits. I can vividly remember talking to people I couldn’t see when I was around 4 or 5 years old. I had no clue that wasn’t the usual for everyone until I got wind of that idea from the adults around me. Because I wanted my loved ones to feel safe and happy, I turned that part of myself off. Aside from feeling like Jesus had his arm around me as I sat in the pew at church, the gift remained in the “off” position until I was 23 years old...

Enter Hazel Jeffries. She was the catalyst I didn’t even know I needed. Hazel is my then roommate’s mother and was forever perched at our dining room table smoking a million cigarettes and spouting universal wisdom like it was no big deal. She would tell us about Zig Ziglar, Norman Vincent Peale, Og Mandino and how to Think and Grow Rich. Her mantra was “thoughts are things,” which of course, is true. I can still hear her say it even as I write these words. Hazel, in her unique and often impish way, raised the bar in my life that no one else up to that point, including religion, had. 

She insisted that I would “read” people and I absolutely insisted I would not. But even as I said the words, something inside of me stirred. Then one day, she showed up unannounced as usual and sat in her normal spot at the table, looked at me and said, “You’re going to see an aura now.” I sighed and figured, sure, why not. But I was also intrigued by this possibility and what I have learned over my years is that curiosity opens many, many doors. Some good, some bad, but all with a wealth of knowledge and experiences to offer. 

So, I sat back in my chair and followed instructions to stare at the arm she had stuck out at a right angle from her body and let my vision relax. I remember that moment as clear as bright, sunny daylight. The light in the room shifted, the energy felt different. I felt different. The top of my head got crazy tingly and suddenly I was looking at what appeared to be golden heat waves coming from her arm. Naturally, I freaked out. I wanted to know what that was? And she said she was projecting her energy and I was seeing the first sign of an aura – or the spiritual energy field that emits from the body. 

Then, she finished her cigarette and went home. Her job was done. She had been, in that moment, an awakener for me whether she was consciously aware of it or not. Although, I suspect she was.

After that experience, and armed with this seemingly new level of vision, I practiced seeing auras and as I did, beautiful colors began to emerge that were literally alive. I saw auras in varying degrees and colors everywhere and on everything – even inanimate objects. Later I came to understand that all matter carries energy within it and emits the same, whether it is considered conscious or not. In truth, all things are created from the eternal consciousness that we would call God, Source, Universe – or whatever name you chose. 

So, you ask, what does any of this have to do with coffee and donuts with Archangel Michael?

To answer that question, I will have to backtrack once more. Bear with me. I think you will find what comes next worth it. 

I’ve been obsessed with Angels my entire life. When I was 4 my aunt took me shopping for a birthday gift for my mom. I spotted this sweet little ceramic angel and chose that as my gift. I taped wings I cut out of poster board to my Barbie dolls and flew them around my bedroom. And I obsessively drew angels, and later, painted portraits of them. 

My house was filled with angels and my former-priest-uncle even once asked me if I worshipped them. The answer, of course, was no. I never worshipped them. But I did intensely love them and think of them as my friends. My own guardian angel, Seraphiel, showed up in my dreams time and again and I had a pre-birth memory of an intense conversation with him. He promised that I would be 100% safe in this lifetime. That particular memory has made me a little reckless at times, I admit. I often joke that poor Seraphiel is going to need a truckload of margaritas when I get done with this life. But the memory has also given me the confidence I need to embrace my gift and strengthen my connection with the spirit world. In this case, the Angelic spheres.

To know that powerful, protector beings from the spirit world have your back is the ultimate comfort.

Fast-forward 30 or so years, and life has put me through my share of trials and initiations. Covid 19 came in and shook the world hard, and I got my own dose of the shaking in the form of the loss of my business. I tried to keep my life in Houston, Texas afloat, but it seemed that nothing I did worked. Money became an issue and I eventually found myself in dire straits while having to reconcile the fact that I was going to have to move out of my home. Prior to that, I had always managed to make things work and manifest money to do what was needed when I needed it. But I was feeling blocked at everything I tried. I kept fighting and the more I fought the harder life pushed back. 

Sometimes, the Universe will close all the doors to force you to take the one it knows you need. 

Right about that time, one of my Soul Family members bought a new property in California. The lady who was originally going to be the caretaker stayed for 3 months and then decided it wasn’t for her. I am so grateful to her for choosing to leave because that was the open door the Universe wanted me to take. I packed up my things and moved to Northern California and went from a lifetime of being in the city to suddenly living on a sparsely populated mountain surrounded by the most majestic forest.   

You never know how much you need nature until you are in it.

It took me a good year to heal from all the stress and financial trauma. Dark nights of the soul are not for the feint of heart. But they are worth the tears and hair pulling, because once it is all over things get so very, very clear. 

That is when the angels really started talking. That is when the mediumship gifts came online. That is when I began to do the automatic writing. 

And that is when, during a QHHT (Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique) session, I had coffee and donuts with Archangel Michael.

During the interview with the facilitator, I talked about my recent reconnecting with this most brilliant angel, who came to me more as a friend than the Archangel that he is.  I described him as a funny, friendly, very wise friend who I would just want to have a coffee and a donut with and discuss the nature of the Universe.  

So we began the session and as she was guiding me through a meditation, she asked me to imagine myself in a room made of light and then drop down out of that light-filled room and tell her where I was.  Imagine my surprise when I found myself seated on an old booth seat in a 50's era diner.  In front of me was a cup of coffee and a single donut on a small plate.  And across the table, with his own cup of coffee and donut, was the most handsome man absolutely laughing his head off about the coffee and donuts.  Because make no mistake, he was completely responsible for the heavenly diner I found myself in and he was cracking himself up.  It was all so real, and even now I can remember every detail.  The tables, booth seats, the blinds on the windows, the stunning white light pouring in through the blinds.  And I remember him too, in a physical form so that I could feel comfortable to talk with him.

And talk we did.  

During the session, my QHHT facilitator asked many questions and I did my best to translate the answers.  

After the session, I found myself in a state of bliss for days.  My feet hardly touched the ground and my friend, Michael, was available for any questions I wanted to ask.  It was magical.

Since that time, i have practiced channeling so that I can assist my friends in the non-physical to bring through answers to your questions.  Now, I would like to open up the floor for you to ask what you would like and then let Michael answer.  He has much to say. But the most important thing he wants you to understand is that he is your friend, too. He is completely available and accessible to you at any time, all you have to do is ask.  He is not “above” you, “greater than” you, or “far away” from you. He is right here beside you.  And he is also a very cool guy. So please grab your own cup of coffee and a donut and enjoy some time with Michael.

To participate, please subscribe to the Coffee and Donuts Newsletter.  Responses to questions will be written up in our weekly Newsletter.  Submit your questions for Archangel Michael via email to leighangel@loveleighangel.com.

Thank you all so much and I look forward to being Michael's secretary on behalf of all of you!
