A voice message from Saint Michael
It was 2010, I was in Virginia and this happened to me: I was going to a meeting in Richmond, a breakfast. My friend Mike was going with me, his wife was battling cancer and had trouble sleeping. About 5:30 a.m. I was supposed to pick up Mike so we could make it to Richmond by 7:30 a.m. As I turned the corner by Mike’s house I saw him using his cell phone and then put it in his pocket. He was calling me to remind me not to honk (to avoid waking up his wife) but he saw me turning the corner and knew that I was not going to make any noise since he was already standing by the curbside. We went to Richmond and had our meeting. It was Tuesday in late July 2010.
Terrible things happened that week. I was attacked ferociously by someone who disagreed with me politically. This hateful person was out of his mind. It was so bad I feared physical violence. Back from Mass that following Sunday I decided to pray the St. Michael’s chaplet. As I finished praying I said “amen” and the phone made a beep that I had never heard before and never heard since. BEEP! The screen read: “You have a voice message” I dialed to hear the message and it was:
“THIS IS MICHAEL, I AM UP FRONT”
The message left by Mike on Tuesday somehow reached me by Sunday evening and coincided with my ending of a prayer to St. Michael. My heart stopped for a second. How that synchronicity happened, I can’t explain but I believe St. Michael used that message –may be he suspended it in time– to respond to me and calm my heart.
The Choirs and the origin of the Chaplet
EWTN informs that Sacred Scripture distinguishes nine groups of angels: Seraphim, Cherubim, Thrones, Dominations, Powers, Virtues, Principalities, Archangels and Angels (Isaiah 6: 2; Genesis 3: 24; Colossians 1: 16; Ephesians 1: 21; Romans 8: 38). There may be more groupings but these are the only ones that have been revealed to us. The Seraphim is believed to be the highest Choir, the most intimately united to God, while the Angelic Choir is the lowest.
The history of this Chaplet goes back to a devout Servant of God, Antonia d’Astonac, who had a vision of St. Michael. He told Antonia to honor him by nine salutations to the nine Choirs of Angels. St. Michael promised that whoever would practice this devotion in his honor would have, when approaching Holy Communion, an escort of nine angels chosen from each of the nine Choirs. In addition, for those who would recite the Chaplet daily, he promised his continual assistance and that of all the holy angels during life, and after death deliverance from purgatory for themselves and their relations.
The Chaplet of St. Michael
O God, come to my assistance. O Lord, make haste to help me. Glory be to the Father, etc.
Say one Our Father and three Hail Marys after each of the following nine salutations in honor of the nine Choirs of Angels
1. By the intercession of St. Michael and the celestial Choir of Seraphim may the Lord make us worthy to burn with the fire of perfect charity.
Amen.2. By the intercession of St. Michael and the celestial Choir of Cherubim may the Lord grant us the grace to leave the ways of sin and run in the paths of Christian perfection.
Amen.3. By the intercession of St. Michael and the celestial Choir of Thrones may the Lord infuse into our hearts a true and sincere spirit of humility.
Amen.4. By the intercession of St. Michael and the celestial Choir of Dominations may the Lord give us grace to govern our senses and overcome any unruly passions.
Amen.5. By the intercession of St. Michael and the celestial Choir of Virtues may the Lord preserve us from evil and falling into temptation.
Amen.6. By the intercession of St. Michael and the celestial Choir of Powers may the Lord protect our souls against the snares and temptations of the devil.
Amen.7. By the intercession of St. Michael and the celestial Choir of Principalities may God fill our souls with a true spirit of obedience.
Amen.8. By the intercession of St. Michael and the celestial Choir of Archangels may the Lord give us perseverance in faith and in all good works in order that we may attain the glory of Heaven.
Amen.9. By the intercession of St. Michael and the celestial Choir of Angels may the Lord grant us to be protected by them in this mortal life and conducted in the life to come to Heaven.
Amen.
Say one Our Father in honor of each of the following leading Angels: St. Michael, St. Gabriel, St. Raphael and our Guardian Angel.
Concluding prayers
O glorious prince St. Michael, chief and commander of the heavenly hosts, guardian of souls, vanquisher of rebel spirits, servant in the house of the Divine King and our admirable conductor, you who shine with excellence and superhuman virtue deliver us from all evil, who turn to you with confidence and enable us by your gracious protection to serve God more and more faithfully every day.
Pray for us, O glorious St. Michael, Prince of the Church of Jesus Christ, that we may be made worthy of His promises.
Almighty and Everlasting God, Who, by a prodigy of goodness and a merciful desire for the salvation of all men, has appointed the most glorious Archangel St. Michael Prince of Your Church, make us worthy, we ask You, to be delivered from all our enemies, that none of them may harass us at the hour of death, but that we may be conducted by him into Your Presence. This we ask through the merits of Jesus Christ Our Lord.
Amen.

The present situation is not easy in beautiful Buenos Aires. Surrounded by crooks, I am fighting alone. Some that should be on my side are instead a nuisance. One thing allows me to rest easy: I have trusted this to Heaven. The building I am living in won’t fall in spite of the damage inflicted to it. God has provided a good lawyer and the case is so awfully lopsided towards plain criminal damage and misadministration that I doubt any judge will dare to ignore it. The consequences of not acting fast could be awful.
Please pray for me and the innocent souls living in this building, that we may fix the damage and clean the area of wrongdoers. Nothing is impossible for God.

Therefore God exalted him [Jesus] to the highest place
and gave him the name that is above every name,
that at the name of Jesus every knee should bend,
in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father.
Philippians 2:10-11
God often communicates through images.
It was a sad spectacle indeed to see someone who claims to have the favor of the People of the once mighty United States fall three times and end on his knees while trying to climb aboard the Presidential Air Force One.
Jacob had to limp for a lifetime after struggling against God one night. (Genesis 32:22–32) He admitted at the end of his life that God had delivered him of all his troubles. (Psalm 34:19) To drive in the divine lesson, Jacob (trickster) was renamed Israel meaning: “the struggle [battle, fight] belongs to God.” And who among the readers of Holy Scripture would forget Haman’s wife prophecy: “‘Since Mordecai, before whom your downfall has started, is of Jewish origin, you cannot stand against him – you will surely come to ruin!’ — Haman and his family were dead hours later. (Esther 6:13)
In this day and year of St Joseph, a Catholic man named after that saint is humiliated by a simple flight of stairs and ends up on his knees. He happens to be playing the rôle of President of the United States. He has crowned a long string of mishaps with that disgraceful show.
The omen is easy to read: YOU SHALL FALL.
In the image seen around the world the American Eagle shows the arrows but the olive branches are hidden behind the stairs. I do not want to even read that.
The wise in heart will treasure the commandments: but a prating fool shall fall. (Proverbs 10:8)

There are often great (in the sense of large) symbols that should seem obvious, but are not. The Titanic sank 4/15/1912 two years before WW1 began. It stood for technical arrogance, British dominance and empire, luxury, and false expectation (“unsinkable”) It used steam power and carried a radio. It was made of steel. It was grandiose in every sense of that word. Two years after it was destroyed, the world slipped into a suburb of hell called the great war. England and Europe began a process of decay which ended 31 years later with all the major monarchies in Europe gone, Catholicism displaced by materialism and the empire mere scraps of what it had been in 1914. 4 – 15 – 1912 reduces to 6 + 9 + 9 + 3 + 1 or 7 -9 – 9 – 3 or added together 10.
The Hindenburg fell from the sky 5/ 6/ 1937 in flames – fire from the sky two years before the start of WW2. It symbolized German power and prestige, command of the air, a new level of technical arrogance involving science. The date reduces to 6-6-9-3-7 adding to 31. Not as many people died in the crash, but the dramatic and powerful graphic nature and immediacy of the event made it equal the Titanic sinking in public consciousness. World War Two completed the enthronement of materialism. In an unbroken line of events materialism has captured all centers of earthly influence. The human suffering involved in that dominance is beyond calculation.
Gerald Ford fell coming down the stairs from an airplane and become a comedic punching bag for jokesters. One suspects Mr. B will not. However, he fell climbing to his plane. His ambition will cause his knees to buckle may be the message. He fell three times! The date was 3 – 19-2021 which resolves to 3 -3 – 9 – 3. Or 6 – 9 – 3 or 9 – 9 adding up to 18 which adds to 9. I wonder if he will have two years?

Personal reflection I did not dare to share before.
Joseph’s year, Joseph’s day, Joseph Biden. That is Joseph-Joseph-Joseph in the same usage as king-king-king confirmed the star of Bethlehem to the Magi that, according to tradition were THREE wise scholars from Babylon.
The Joseph x 3 escapes my understanding but I guess it may have some relation to PURITY — perhaps God is about to punish the impure that are about to take over the whole world. They enthroned impurity “where it ought not” since one common thread running through the Biden family seems to be religious impurity among other more salacious kinds.
Next week is the Feast of the Annunciation that is MARCH 25. My guess is: kings (plural) may “sally forth from the Orient” in a replay of the Cyrus encircling of Babylon. Turkey and Russia have united in condemnation of Biden’s actions in a very suggestive consonance.
Trump (45=5×9) was the last whole President of the USA. Biden is the scapegoat presently going to Hades in gasoline breeches. This is precipitating. The idus Martiae are on. It is the time to settle debts.
The more I look at this the darker it gets.

For my money, this year’s Titanic/Hindenburg is the “vaccine.” We’ve moved beyond mere industrial materialism and into the realm of biogenetic manipulation, a kind of biotechnocracy.
I’m stunned by the level of denial that I see. The first words from my doctor, financial adviser, some friends, uttered with a kind of giddiness: When are you getting the vaccine? I just got my second shot! We’re fully immunized! We’re expecting the economy to explode now that everyone is relaxing! Our pregnant daughter just got the vaccine, so she’ll be visiting shortly!
Okay, I can understand getting vaccinated, making the calculation that the benefits outweigh the risks (of a biogenetic experiment that was never even tried on animals, let alone pregnant women). It’s not how I add things up, but I could be wrong.
What I know I’m not wrong about is that there should be at least some note of caution, a recognition of the clear, unalterable fact that this is a big risk, even if you think it’s worth it. But they’re all so excited! Like the passengers boarding the Titanic. At least in that case there was a long history of safe travel on the open seas. To extend the analogy, it’s like these people are dancing and singing while boarding a ship that is taking on water, doing so with complete assurance because they’ve been told by experts that it’s unsinkable.
I’m not sure “put not your faith in princes” has ever been more apt.
