Angels tend to be seen as intermediaries between humans and a higher power. In fact, it should be mentioned that the term "angel" comes from the Latin angelus, meaning "messenger." As such, it should come as no surprise to learn that cherubs, seraphs, and other angels can be powerful symbols of a wide range of good things.
Generally speaking, when someone thinks of an angel, chances are good that they will think of a humanoid figure with one or more pairs of avian wings. However, it is important to note that there are other kinds of angels that are represented in other ways as well, with examples ranging from the four-faced Cherubim to the eye-covered wheels called the Ophanim. Regardless, most angels share certain connotations because of their status as intermediaries between humans and a higher power, with examples including but not limited to courage, compassion, protection, illumination, and spiritual awareness. As such, it is no wonder that some people like to put canvas wall art and other depictions of angels in their homes for the purpose of benefiting from their symbolic power.
Of course, it should be mentioned that individual angels as well as classes of angels can have further connotations of their own. For example, the archangel Michael is often associated with triumph over the forces of wickedness, while the archangel Raphael is often associated with the power to heal. Likewise, the fire angels called the Seraphim can be seen as bastions of spiritual strength whose examples can serve to inspire similar passion in those who perceive them. In the end, the sheer range of angels makes for a similar range of symbolic meanings.
Most of the time, but not all, angels appear with wings. Generally, angel wings are associated with the spiritual, a higher evolution of the soul, higher realms of existence or ascension. They can also be a symbol of good luck or protection against evil, or symbolise hope, enlightenment, guidance and protection.
