Hi Robert - thanks for the kind comments. About your question on Jophiel : as far as I know no. He is related to Judaic lore - like many other archangelic energies. He is identified with Iophiel, or Iofiel or Zophiel and is mentioned in various Judaic and apocrypha doctrines as one of the 7 archangels (there are many different lists of the seven of course, but he is in most of them). Agrippas and other Christian scholars refer to him as the protector of the planet Saturn. Though others see him as being related to Jupiter.

By the way I am working on a book about all seven archangels which will include a lot of information about each one, along with my illustrations of them1
