Questions about Mitzrael

Who is the angel Mitzrael?

Mitzrael is angel number 60 of the 72 angels of the Shem HaMephorash, the 72-part name of God. Kabbalists took the name from three verses of Exodus (14:19–21), each 72 Hebrew letters long, and read it as 72 names of three letters. Each of those names, with an angelic ending, gives one angel.

Is Mitzrael my guardian angel?

In the Golden Dawn system each of the 72 angels rules 5° of the zodiac, and your angel is the one ruling the degree the Sun was in when you were born. Mitzrael rules 25–30° Taurus, so it is the angel of people born from May 16 to May 20. Enter your birth date in the Circle on the home page to check yours.

How is Mitzrael used in practice?

In later ceremonial magic the angel of a decan is said to hold power over the Goetic demon of the same decan, so it is named when that demon is called. Many people also simply work with the angel of their own birth degree. Read it as a historical tradition; no outcome is promised.
