From: Paul Hume
Subj: Archangels
Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.
For those who have expressed an interest, here are the images I use for
the Archangels in the Quarters. I trust not too badly mauled by the
vagaries of the text processor available on my Apple II...
Raphael: Fair skin, blonde hair, delicate but strong features.
Dressed in yellow robe shot with mauve threads. He holds a Caduceus.
Raphael stands lightly upon a spring-green field, wet with dew. The
rising Sun backlights him in pure, golden/white morning light. His
wings are white with gold highlights.
Gabriel: This is the one that may seem wierdest. Sea-green hair,
pale blue skin, in a scaled robe of blue with orange highlights. His
features are aquiline - classical Roman. He bears a great Cup. He
stands above the billowing waves of the sea, backlit in Orange light
by the setting Sun. His wings are white with blue-green highlights.
Michael: He stands in the desert, or sometimes a sun-baked field of
bare soil, under the blazing noonday sun. Red hair, golden-tan face,
strong, square features. Red metallic robe with green highlights
flashing from it. He bears a great sword two-handed. His arms and
shoulders are those of a warrior. Wings are coppery.
Auriel: Auriel stands on the mountains - black, silent, snowcapped -
but looking down over a fertile valley, filled with crops and lowing
cattle and bleating sheep. He is dressed in simple robes, almost
homespun, of the four Earth colors, russet predominating. He bears a
platter of the fruits of the soil, and I often see Him bearing a
shepherd's crook or staff. It is night yet cold, silver light
illuminates the scene - whether from the Moon or "the midnight Sun" I
cannot yet tell. Auriel has dark hair, Mediterranean complexion, a
half-round, half-square face with a pleasant smile. His wings are
dark - black with bluish highlights, like a raven's.
Mostly, I just get a hint of the Archangelic image. Instead, the Solar
image of the Quarter (rising, setting, noonday, etc.) floods the
circle with the appropriate color of light. I also usually feel a
breeze from Raphael, a humid tingling sensation from Gabriel,
prickling heat from Michael, and solid, massive stability from Auriel.
Hope these are of some use. Love is the law, love under will.
Paul
