How many guardian angels are there? There are approximately 6,000,000,000 people on Earth and if everyone has a guardian angel there must be at least 6,000,000,000 guardian angels. Then there are the guardian angels for all those who have died and for those who have not yet been born. When someone dies is their guardian angel then reassigned to someone else? Or is each guardian angel unique to the person they “light and guard, rule and guide”? If this is the case then there must be an upper limit to the number of people that can come into existence, that number being limited by the number of guardian angels. We know how many people are living on Earth at present and a good idea of how many people have lived in the past. Consequently we have a good idea of how many people have been assigned a guardian angel. If we take this number away from the total number of guardian angels we’d have an idea of how many more people will be born. This would then give us an idea as to how long until the end of the world. :rotfl:
 
lol, someone’s been watching too much Demi Moore in the Seventh Seal, methinks 😃
 
I rezd somewhere…unfortunately I’m not sure where…that any angel is assigned as a Guardian Angel only once, to a single human soul.
 
I also heard that Guardian Angels are not reassigned. But that’s not to say that serving as a single person’s Guardian Angel is the only thing they ever do! They probably have other duties before and after their Guardian duty 🙂 Maybe *all * angels have to take their turn being a Guardian to someone… Well, maybe! 😛
 
GA" s are only with us in life. There are probably trillions of Angels. St Thomas Aquinas is also known as the Angelic doctor. He once gave 30 -40 consecutive sermons about Angels.

guardian angel

An angel who is assigned by God to watch over and care for a man during his life upon earth. The general doctrine that angels are thus deputed to protect men in their pathway through life is a matter of Catholic faith, clearly expressed in Scripture. Moreover, theologians commonly teach that every member of the human race at the moment when the soul is infused into the body, is entrusted to the keeping of an individual angel; and that this angel remains his guardian until death, whether the child grow into sinner or saint, pagan or Christian. The guardian angels are selected generally from the lowest choir of angels. A feast in their honor, kept locally in the 16th century, was extended to the Universal Church by Pope Paul V in 1608.
