According to Orthodox tradition, every person is assigned a Guardian Angel at the moment of their baptism to guide, protect, and intercede for them throughout their life.
The Guardian Angel is our silent companion, the "enlightener" of our thoughts and the protector who stands by us in times of trial. In iconography, the Angel is often depicted holding a sword or a staff, symbolizing readiness to defend the soul, while his calm expression brings peace and spiritual clarity. This icon serves as a beautiful point of focus for daily prayers of protection and gratitude.
