The Archangel Gabriel – Messenger To Man
I have had a personal interest in the Archangel Gabriel after learning some years ago that this angel may have had a personal interest in me. I was informed by one of the many entities communicating with the family through my wife, Doris, that Gabriel is my Guardian Angel. It was a hard time believing such a story, of course. And yet circumstances surrounding my life over the years have been so strange at times, and so amazingly magical, that I must wonder just how close this angelic connection has been in my personal life.

Michael – The Archangel Of Protection
My late wife Doris and I became aware of the protective grace of the Archangel Michael during our adventures in Arizona, while involved in a struggle for our survival in a hostile and unfamiliar territory. Consequently we regard Michael as an old friend. We discovered that we always knew when Michael was with us because the room would fill with a faint violet light. Doris found herself surrounded in Michael’s protective light one night when she was alone in a rented motel room in Winslow while a fierce knife fight went on just outside her door. On yet another occasion I called upon Michael, and his light filled my car when I was forced to made a non-stop drive from Texas to Michigan with a fierce winter storm on my heels. The soft amber light surrounded the car during the long night drive and as tired as I was, I knew that I was going to get home safely. It is said that Michael was the first angel created by God and that he is leader of all of the Archangels. He carries a flaming sword that he uses to protect us from negative entities. His duty is to protect us, give us courage, truth and integrity. His protection reaches beyond the physical into emotional and psychic levels.

Abasdarhun – Angel Of The Night
Some myths have portrayed Abasdarhun as a demon. In fact a rock band once took this angelic name, perhaps thinking that it represented one of the Spirits of the Goetia. Abasdarhun’s title, however, is Supreme Ruling Angel of the Fifth Hour of the Night. While Abasdarhun is never mentioned in Hebrew scripture, his name does appear in other sacred and ancient mythological books. When the names of the angels are listed, this one always appears high on the list.

Adnachiel – Angel Of November
It is said that angels exist to watch over all aspects of time as it is recognized by humanity. Thus there are not only angels at work during every hour, but also for each day and each month. Adnachief is the angel of November. He is the angel looming over the spirit of the Thanksgiving season.

Adonai - Angel Of God
Ancient Hebrew text speaks of Adonai as both an “angel of the Lord” and another name for YHVH, the most holy and unspoken reference to God. Thus there is confusion as to the true identity of Adonai. One old book refers to Adonai as Malakh Adonai, or Angel of the Lord. This text appears to consider Adonai as a King of Angels, standing above the rest. He thus may be the supreme representative or messenger of God and his word is “one” with the very person of God.

Barbiel – Angel Of October
Barbiel is said to be the angel for the month of October. Some believe he is an archangel but there also is a story that Barbiel is a fallen angel that now serves as a helper to the Archangels Gabriel and Uriel. When we call upon either Gabriel or Uriel for help, it may be Barbiel who answers the summons.

Chamuel – Archangel Of Divine Love
The Archangel Chamuel is said to be a host of God’s divine love. This is the kind of love that Jesus described as “the love that passeth all understanding.” Artists that have attempted to portray Chamuel produce only a faint image embedded in a glowing background of light. Streams of pure light pour from the heart chakra of this entity making it almost impossible to make out the detail of its source.

Haniel – Angel Of December
Haniel is known as the angel that oversees the Month of December. This angel also is sometimes known as Anael. The name in Hebrew means “Joy of God” or “Grace of God.” This of course is a fitting name that easily links to the Christmas story.

Metatron; Scribe Of Heaven
Metatron is known as the angel of life. He is said to guard the Tree of Life and keeps a record of the good deeds people do on Earth. He maintains the Book of Life which contains the names of the chosen. Thus his main duty is that of the celestial scribe. There is an interesting story concerning Metatron’s origins. It is said that he once lived as the prophet Enoch on Earth, the brother of the prophet Elijah. Both ascended to heaven as angels. Enoch is known as Metatron and Elijah is today the angel Sandalphon.

King Solomon And The Goetia Demons
In mythology it is said that 72 Spirits of the Goetia, or demons, were bound by the magic of Solomon for the past 4,000 years. The legend is that King Solomon of Old Testament fame bound these demonic forces after using them to gain his great wisdom and wealth. Each demon, or spirit, I am told, commands legions of lesser demons. A legion is an untold but large number of warriors waiting to serve at their leader's call. Most interesting of all, the spirits, or demons are supposedly at war with the angelic forces that presently rule the people of Earth. So who was Solomon, how did he gain power over these demonic kings, what did he use them for, and how did he imprison those bad boys when finished with them?

Why Have So Many Humans Worshiped Bael?
Ancient historical records indicate that Bael, the first principal spirit listed in the Goetia, has been the subject of human worship for thousands of years. The Hebrews were admonished in the Old Testament for turning away from Jehova and bowing down to Bael. The Sumerians worshiped several gods, including Marduk, another name for Bael, also spelled Baal. The Canaanites and Amorites also worshiped Bael. Some believe the Egyptian god Osiris was none other than Bael in disguise.

Agares – A Troublesome Demon
The second listed Spirit of the Goetia is Agares, a troublesome character to have around. It is said that he is under the power of the East and when evoked. And he appears as an old man riding a crocodile. Agares is a grand duke of Hell. He leads 31 legions of demons. The old magicians who evoked, studied and wrote of him noted that he enjoys destroying a person’s dignity, evoking people to use foul language, and even makes anyone in motion “stand still.” This has been interpreted as ruining careers.

Vassago: An Impish Spirit?
When evoked in a remote viewing session a few years ago, the Goetia Spirit Vassago appeared as an alien with a large eye peering from behind an invisible partition. It was as if the edge of a mirror sliced the image in half never allowing it to be seen as complete.Draw ings by others who have evoked this third spirit in the list of 72 demons of the Goetia depict Vassago as a rather frightening and complex creature. There may have been good reason for its unwillingness to appear as it really looks when its portrait was being made.

Demon Samigina; The Little Horse
For thousands of years the Goetian Spirit known as Samigina has been seen by magicians in the form of an ass, or some say a "little horse." Also known as Gamigin, this spirit holds the rank of marquis. He first appears in the form of a horse and then changes into human shape at the request of the summoner. It is said that he speaks with a hoarse voice. He teaches all liberal sciences and gives account of souls that died in sin. He governs 30 Legions of “Inferiors.” We suspect these are lesser ranking demons.

Marbas; The Spirit With Cat Eyes
The old magickians said Marbas first appeared to them as a large cat . . possibly a lion. S. L. MacGregor Mathers says Marbas is a shapeshifter that can appear as either lion or man. "He possesses knowledge of secrets, causes diseases and cures them, and has great knowledge in the mechanical arts." The Seagrave art site suggests that the powers of Marbas allow it to alter its shape may extend to an ability to cause others around him to look different. "He also may change the shape of men by his touch so that they become as wolves or bears."

Amon; Ancient God Of The Middle East
It is said that the Egyptians were the first to bow down to him. They knew this demonic spirit as Ammon, although he had other names including Amun, Amen and Ammon-Ra, the sun god. He was sometimes portrayed in Egyptian art as a man with the head of a bird. This devious spirit may even go farther back into history. The Sumerian King List, a controversial record of all the rulers of Earth dating over 400,000 years, lists as immortal gods such names as Enmeduranki, Annunaki, Nephilim, Nefiim, and Elohim, all linking us to an ancient story of a visit by an alien race called the Annunaki, who some believe were the parents of the human race on this planet.

Barbatos; A Skeletal Figure With Green Emerald
Long described as the hunter in green clothing, a crafty friend to any magician able to raise him, Barbatos is obviously the stuff legends and old stories are made of. This great Goetian Duke is briefly described as a hunter who appears with four noble kings and their armies at his side. The kings are blowing horns in celebration of Barbatos' arrival. It is said this demon can talk to animals, open magically protected treasures, tell of past things, predict the future, and be of good council to those in power.

Valefor; Another Strange Spirit
In their efforts to describe Valefor, the Sixth Spirit of the Goetia, the old magicians said he looked like a lion with the head of an ass. Valefor looks somewhat like an animal because he stands on four legs, but he has a large head, small eyes, and a long flowing beard. One old book said Valefor has been called numerous other names, including Valafar, Valefar, and Malaphar. He is a duke that governs 10 legions of spirits.

King Paimon – Elegance Of Royalty
He is listed as the ninth Goetia Spirit, but if there is a demon displaying a power to rival that of Bael, it is probably Paimon. This guy is among the most difficult spirits to summon and it is said that when he appears, he comes in elegant garb, with a sound of music and with a contingent of accompanying spirits. Nineteenth Century magician and author S. L. MacGregor Mathers wrote that Paimon was “once of the Order of Dominations” before his alleged fall from Heaven. He noted that Paimon is so powerful he rules over 200 legions of demons.
