The Archangel Uriel, alias Elizabeth Fomalhaut, in colour. For my story project and hypothetical doll line Archangelette.

Be kind, reblog

Uriel/Elizabeth is an angel of wisdom, arts, and sciences. She always tries to learn new things, for while knowledge can hurt, she believes it’s better than blissful ignorance. As a messenger of free will, she helps people pursue their passions for arts and sciences despite the restrictions they face.

However, unlike energetic Michael, eloquent Gabriel, and laidback Raphael, she is the least social and most timid of the archangels. While Raphael's happy to just let her be herself, Michael and Gabriel can be too eager to help push her out of her comfort zone. Despite this, Uriel can also feel left out from the other archangels, as she's the only one of the four not recognised by the Catholic Church.

As Uriel has been linked with both the Sun and the element of Earth, I’ve compromised by giving her gravity powers

دست از طلب ندارم تا کام من برآید یا تن رسد به جانان یا جان ز تن درآید

I will not cease my pursuit until my wish is fulfilled, Either my body reaches my beloved, or my soul leaves the body.

The Penguin Anthology of Classical Arabic Literature by Robert Irwin.

My first week in Morocco is over, and from visiting relatives and keeping house it's been Irwin's anthology of Arabic lit that has been tiding me over from one hot day to the next.

"Translation is like a seance with the dead and what comes out on the planchette will often read like urgent nonsense."
