He is always protected by his angel. The Guardian Angel does not leave a person even in his hour of death. He accompanies the soul of the deceased and prays to God for the granting of mercy to her in Eternal life. The first icons of the Guardian Angel, as a collective, metaphorical image, appeared in the 17th century. On them, the spiritual Guardians of a person began to be depicted as similar to archangels, differing from them only in attributes. A cross and a sword appeared on the icons in the hands of the Guardian Angel - as symbols of his ministry. Just like other angelic powers, the Guardian Angel has mighty wings, which symbolize the speed of the fulfillment of God's commands, and small ribbons at the ears which show that the Guardian Angel always hears the voice of God. The Orthodox Church obliges every baptized person to honor and thank his Guardian Angel privately, in daily home prayers, to turn to him for patronage and protection as the closest spiritual mentor. Remembering your Angel and constantly referring to him is necessary because the Guardian Angel cannot participate in the life of an adult without his desire. Prayer to the Guardian Angel does not have to belong. It can be a short address, for example, such as on the back of the icon: "My angel, protect me".
