So, about Furfur's angel book. Remember the part about Baraqiel?

Image text: BARAQIEL. Dominion. Angel of the Sky. Appearance: Hair an eye-burning jinnjer. Eyebrows with the appearance of a grisly slug. Often draped in red. Occashunly damp, most likely singed.

I recently got my hands on a copy of A Dictionary of Angels, Including the Fallen Angels, by Gustav Davidson.

And here is the entry for Baraqiel!

Image Text: Barakiel (Barachiel, Barbiel, Barchiel, Barkiel, Baraqiel, etc. -- "lightning of God") -- one of the 7 archangels, one of the 4 ruling seraphim, angel of the month of February, and prince of the 2nd Heaven as well as of the order of confessors. Barakiel has dominion over lightning and is also one of the chief angels of the 1st and 4th altitudes or chora in the Almadel of Solomon. In addition, he is a ruler of the planet Jupiter and the zodiacal sign of Scorpio (as cited by Camfield in A Theological Discourse of Angels) and Pisces. With the angels Uriel and Rubiel, Barakiel is invoked to bring success in games of chance, according to De Plancy, Dictionaire Infernal.[Rf. Ginzberg, The Legends of the Jews I, 140.]

Lightning of God We see Crowley let off some lightning while too angry to control himself, and an angel of lightning could easily be considered an angel of the sky.

Archangel Baraqiel We assume Metatron was referring to Satan when he spoke of the Prince of Heaven they lost. Could he have been referring to Crowley? There was a lot of hatred in the look Metatron gave Crowley in the bookshop.

Crowley also told Beelzebub that the whole erasure from the Book of Life thing was something they said just to scare the Cherubs and that it wasn't actually a thing. We think of fat little cupids when Cherubs are mentioned, but Cherub is just the singular of Cherubim, and those guys are just one step below the Seraphim.

And he was teasing them.

Crowley says he understands what Aziraphale is offering him better than his angel does. If he was a Seraphim, then I believe it.

I know Furfur's book places him as a Dominion, but Neil can be an unreliable narrator, and who knows how accurate a demon's book might be. Neil could have also just decided to make Crowley a Dominion instead. Afterall, the angel guarding the Eastern gate in the bible was a Cherubim, but Neil and Terry changed that to Principality when they made Aziraphale.

Also, if Crowley was hanging out with "Lucifer and the guys," that suggests he was a high ranking angel. You're friends with the people you see every day. They were probably his office buddies.

Crowley said in the beginning of S2 that he worked "very closely with upstairs" on his nebula project. Anyone who has worked for a hierarchical business knows that lower order employees aren't even allowed to talk to the higher-ups directly. They would have to submit their issues to their direct supervisor, and that request would go up the chain until it's taken care of, probably never reaching the highest levels of the company. If Crowley was working directly with "upstairs," and his crossed fingers suggest a close collaboration, then he must have been a very high rank to be allowed to talk to them directly.

It is also worth noting that the use of the singular seraph, in the Book of Isaiah, is translated as "flying fiery serpent."

Ruler of the signs Scorpio and Pisces Crowley is hissy and wrathful and WILL CUT YOU, but he also loves children, and turns goats into birds so he doesn't have to kill them, and breathes life back into smooshed doves, so this makes perfect sense to me. Who's our moody little snek, you're our moody little snek.

Invoked to bring success in games of chance We have already seen him outsmart Heaven and Hell with Armageddon. He is uncommonly sharp-witted and capable for a demon, or even an angel. Look at the way he invented regulations for the Rules of Engagement so convincingly that Shax backed down, and how he got Muriel to sneak him into Heaven. I would definitely want an occult force like Crowley-Baraqiel on my side if I was doing something risky.

Barbiel, Angel of Scorpio

The Vindicator

There are times when words fail and action must be taken. When trials beset our lives and no other course of action is available, we have to fight. The nature of this sign is to be an ally. Loving in the easy times and harsh when the world demands it. Barbiel is our sword against the darkness. It is our power to strike back when necessary.

Barbiel - Angel of Scorpio

Saw this angel in the sky a few weeks after I left hospital. Little signs like this gives me hope for a better future.

This is one of the colorful diagrams from Jean Thenaud’s Traité de la Cabale chrétienne (c. 1521). At the top we see the Pythagorean Tetraktys, traditionally of 10 dots arranged in 4 rows, but here with the dots replaced by the Hebrew Tetragrammaton, surrounded by choirs of angels. One group of angels looks like a wheel, so may perhaps be an allusion to the order of Ophanim (Wheels), who appeared in the vision of Ezekiel 1:15. 

Below is a diagram of the cosmos with the concentric bands of the 7 heavens of the planetary spheres. Moon at the center, linked with the archangel Gabriel, moving outwards through the other planetary archangel pairings:

Mercury - Michael

Venus - Haniel

Sun - Raphael

Mars - Camael

Jupiter - Aderiel (normally Zadkiel)

Saturn - Zapkiel

Encircling these are the signs of the fixed stars of the Zodiac, together with their respective angels:

Aries - Malchidael

Taurus - Asmodel

Gemini - Ambriel

Cancer - Muriel

Leo - Verchiel

Virgo - Hamaliel

Libra - Zuriel

Scorpio - Barchiel (a mistake, it should be Barbiel)

Sagittarius - Advachiel

Capricorn - Hanael

Aquarius - Gambiel (usually Cambiel)

Pisces - Barchiel

Finally, in the outermost band, is Mettraton (usually Metatron), who stands at the top of the Tree of Life as the Angel of Yahweh. He is called ‘The Prince of the Countenance’, the chief of the angles who look upon the face of God.

*✶｡ — @cobaltsouled wants their ☽⋆ fortune told ⋆☾

The angel cradles the sword to its chest, endowing the instrument of war with a fierce affection. Both arms coil about it, fingers curled in determined protection of it, draped in teals and blues like the color of summer seas. The crown she wears breaches the base of her skull, curls around to adorn her brow, consecrated in gold.

Molly laughs at the sight of the Angel of Scorpio, a wide smile painting his lips that doesn’t fade even as his laughter does. “Barbiel,” he discloses at least, and he crosses his arms as if in victory. “The Vindicator. Oh, she is a vicious one, but her enmity is born of love, for the Angel of the Scorpiids is a friend before anything. But will you let others be friends to you, in turn?”

Just a little FYI for you today:

ANGELS OF THE ZODIAC -by an Astrologer

Which Angel Governs Your Sign?

Have you ever wondered which Angel governs your sign? And did you know that all Angels are not exclusively derived from Heaven? Regarding personality, each of these entities play a role in your individuality.

The Angel, Machidiel, (meaning "fullness of God"), governs the month of March and is also the ruler of Aries.

Asmodel, the Angel of April, rules the Zodiacal sign of Taurus. He is widely known as the "demon of punishment."

May's Angel, Ambriel governs Gemini and is the chief officer of the 12th hour of night. On an Oriental, Hebrew charm, Ambriel's name is inscribed to ward off evil.

Then we have Muriel, the Angel of June and the ruler of Cancer. Muriel is interesting in that not only is he the chief officer of the 3rd hour of the day but if "invoked" from the South is believed to procure a magic carpet.

The Angel of July, Verchiel, is the ruler of Leo. Not only is Verchiel one of the rulers of the order of powers, but he also governs the Sun.

Hamaliel, Angel of August and ruler of Virgo is also one of the rulers of the "orders of virtue."

Libra's ruler, Uriel, (translating "Fire of God"), governor of September, is also known as the Archangel of salvation and is renowned globally from the infamous painting - Dryden's "The State of Innocence," depicted descending from heaven in a chariot drawn by white horses. He is also linked to divine vengeance and justice ~ thus the "scales of Libra."

Barbiel, ruler of Scorpio and the Angel of October is one of the 28 angels of the 28 mansions of the Moon. Barbiel also serves as one of the seven Electors in the underworld.

The Angel of November and ruler of Sagittarius is Adnachiel. He and Phaleg, referred to as the "Warlord," alternate as ruling Angels of the Order of Angels.

Haniel, Angel of December and ruler of Capricorn meaning "Glory or grace of God," is known as the chief of innocents. He is invoked as an amulet against evil.

Aquarian ruler, Gabriel ("God is my strength") and Angel of January is one of the two highest-ranking angels in Judaeo-Christian and Mohammedan religion. He stands for annunciation, resurrection, mercy, vengeance, death and revelation. He presides over Paradise and is the ruling prince of the 1st Heaven. He is also said to sit on the left-hand side of God and known as the spirit of truth. Gabriel was the Angel who inspired Joan of Arc to serve the King of France.

Barchiel, the Angel of February and the ruler of Pisces, ("Lightening of God") is one of the 7 archangels and is also known to be the ruler of Jupiter

It is evident, Astrologically speaking, the Zodiac closely mirrors the Heaven that we know and the Angels therein. So the words, "It is written in the Stars" truly exhibits our predestination of life and all that lies within. How we use our knowledge, experience and Angelical Governors of the Zodiac is up to us.
