In
qabalistic and
Christian angelology,
Sachiel is an
archangel of the order of
Cherubim. The meaning of his name is variously given as "the covering of
God" [
link] and "the angel of water." [
link]. In most sources, Sachiel presides over Thursday; others assign him to Monday or Friday. All associate him with the planet
Jupiter; as such, in
new age angel lore he can be invoked for matters involving money, finance, law, politics, and religion.[

sigil appears in
Francis Barrett's
The Magus, an early nineteenth century compendium of
occult lore. It also appears in the
16th century treatise,
The Complete Book of Magic Science.
