Your angels may also communicate in more obvious ways, like speaking directly to you. You may hear a voice, either inside your head or a voice that seems to come from outside of you, even when no one else is around.

There are nine orders, or groups, of angels that surround God. These nine are further divided into groups of three, or triads.
