In How to Become an Angel, Dr. Douglas J. Gabriel offers a transformative journey into spiritual evolution, drawing on the profound cosmology of Rudolf Steiner. This visionary work challenges the despair of materialistic science and secular humanism, which deny humanity a meaningful destiny, and instead presents a radiant path toward angelic existence.

​

Delving into Steiner’s anthroposophical teachings, Gabriel unveils the grand cycles of seven—spanning the seven incarnations of Earth, epochs, and cultural periods—that shape our spiritual development. He reveals how humanity, now in the fifth post-Atlantean period, stands at a crossroads: evolve into angels by cultivating moral imagination, inspiration, and intuition, or devolve through the seductive pull of materialism. The book explores the pivotal roles of archangels as time spirits, the guidance of superhuman helpers from Mercury, Venus, and Vulcan, and the future Russian/Slavic and American periods that will test and refine our spiritual capacities.

​

At its core, How to Become an Angel is a call to awaken. Gabriel outlines the steps to prepare for our transformation on Future Jupiter, the next incarnation of Earth, where those aligned with the Christ principle will co-create a New Jerusalem. With a stark warning against the perils of scientific idolatry and a clarion call to embrace divine virtues, this book offers both a comprehensive cosmology and practical guidance for spiritual seekers.

Embark on this enlightening journey and discover how every thought, feeling, and deed shapes your wings—or your chains.
