PLANETARY ARCHANGEL
BIRTH DAY CHARM

What is your Zodiac sign? If you were born under Leo then your Zodiac planet is the Sun and your Zodiac Archangel is Michael. Scroll down to find your Sun's charm.

Modern astrology, including the Zodiac signs, originated in ancient Chaldea. The wise ones, the magi, observed and studied the personalities of the seven planets and formulated their qualities and their magic areas of influence, such as love, wealth, health and so on. They knew that sometimes the stars are propitious and sometimes they are not and they developed charms, sigils and rituals to favor the optimal astral energy flow. Most importantly, they discovered the names of the Seven Archangels who are in charge of ruling and supervising the seven planets. The planetary Archangel, when asked, may assist us to foster what is beneficial and deflect what may be harmful. This list of Planetary Angels names is different from the list of the names of the Seven Princes received from the mystics. Note that Raphael in his Planetary Archangel role rules over Mercury and Wednesday. However, from the point of view of the mystics he is number 3 and his day is Tuesday.

What day of the week was the day of your birth? In our calendar the day starts one second after midnight. In Chaldean astrology the day began at sunrise. Those who were born after midnight but before sunrise need to make a simple but important adjustment to find out what is their real planetary Day of Birth. The planet of the Day of Birth has a great influence in a person's life and it is not the same to be born on the Day of Mars (Tuesday) than to be born on the Day of the Moon (Monday):

1. If the date on your birth certificate falls on a Tuesday but you were born before sunrise, then consider that you were born during the Twelve Hours of the Night of a Monday and your Archangel of the Day is Gabriel.
2. If you don't know the Hour of Birth, then there is no way to determine for sure your planetary day and it is custom to adopt the day written on the birth certificate. Your personality may guide you: if your traits are clearly more martian than lunatic, then it is a strong indicator you were born on a Tuesday and not on a Monday and vice-versa.

CHARMS OF THE WISE

We cannot avoid the influence of the planets and we need to know how to approach them with caution. The wise magi devised charms to enchant them, to put them in a good mood and ask for a favor. These 7 charms are my own original composition of great ancient charms and they are very effective. The central figure is not an Angel; it is called an imago and it is at once akin to a magic portrait of the Planet in a pleasant form and to a magic calling card. I copied the planetary imagos, and the two lines of angelic characters (also called ring letters) under them, from the Picatrix. I copied the sigils of the planets and the seals of the planetary Archangels from the great magus Cornelius Agrippa. You may print my charms on good card stock for personal use under the fair copyrights rules.

To connect with the Archangel of your Day of Birth, on his week day prepare a simple altar with a handkerchief or a doily on a flat surface. Place on it a flower and the planetary card. Light a candle of the planet's color and call your Angel: In the Holy name of God, Archangel (name) ruler of (name of the planet) stand by me (your name), bless me and protect me! Good Angel of God, under your watchful eyes and guidance, may (name of the planet) bring me good fortune!

Is Mercury retrograde creating havoc with your communications? Place his charm close to your computer and phone. You may use the Angelic Planetary Charms when a planet is retrograde to filter what is harmful. You may also use the charms to magically propitiate any goal or need. For instance if you yearn to find a romantic partner, on a Friday light a pink candle, first pray to God and then invoke Archangel Anael over the charm of Venus or if you need your business to grow, do the same but light a green candle. For a court case or a promotion use Jupiter's charm. If you need the courage to stand to an oppressor, excel in sports or rise your metabolism to lose weight, use the charm of Mars, and for auspicious surgery use the charm of Mercury, the Healer, along with the charm of Mars, master of the knife. If you are weighted down by depression or grief, use the charm of Saturn to release it along with the charm of Venus to fill your life with love, beauty and joy.

It is not a good idea to call upon any spirit before invoking God and his good Angels. Sorcerers do that. Always call God first, second the Archangel, and third, the Planet. For instance: In the Holy Name of God, Archangel Anael, Grace of God, come down from where you dwell and stand by me. In the name of Archangel Anael, Gracious spirit of Venus present yourself in your most pleasant form, be propitious and grant me (this or that).
