Chavakiah

The angel whose name means “God who gives joy” — whose office is peace within the family; reconciliation in disputed inheritance.

Chavakiah is the 35th of the seventy-two angels of the Shem HaMephorash — the divided Name of God, drawn from the three verses of seventy-two letters each in Exodus 14:19–21. The name Chavakiah means God who gives joy. The angel’s office is peace within the family; reconciliation in disputed inheritance.

A note on this material

The seventy-two Shem HaMephorash angels are the angelic counterpart to the seventy-two demons catalogued in the Lesser Key of Solomon. Each Shem angel countermands a specific Goetia spirit. The site presents these as a defensive catalogue: the reader who recognises the pattern of the demon’s office is given the name of the angel who answers it.

The office Chavakiah holds

The tradition assigns to Chavakiah the office of peace within the family; reconciliation in disputed inheritance. The reader who has seen the corresponding pattern in modern life — peace within the family; reconciliation in disputed inheritance — calls on Chavakiah by name. The call is not a request for spectacular intervention. The call is the older grammar’s way of placing the matter in the keeping of the angel whose office it is.

Call on Chavakiah when the pattern of peace within the family; reconciliation in disputed inheritance has touched your life and the natural remedies have not been sufficient.

The psalm verse

Each of the seventy-two Shem angels is paired with a psalm verse the tradition assigns as the angel’s standing prayer. The verse for Chavakiah is:

“I love the Lord, because he has heard my voice and my supplications.” Psalm 116:1

The verse is the standing call. Speak it, or write it, or hold it silently — it is the form the tradition gives for placing the matter under Chavakiah’s office.

The Goetia pair

In the countermanding tradition, Chavakiah stands against the Goetia spirit Marchosias — the 35th spirit of the Lesser Key of Solomon. Where Marchosias’s recorded domain has touched a reader’s life, the answer the tradition prescribes is not engagement with the spirit. The answer is Chavakiah.

How the tradition prescribes the call

Name the pattern. Write down, clearly, the specific way you suspect the influence is operating. Vague suspicion gives the influence cover.
Call on Chavakiah by name. Speak or write the call. Do not address the countermanded spirit directly.
Recite the psalm verse. Psalm 116:1 is the standing prayer assigned to Chavakiah. Read aloud where possible, in the morning hour.
Carry the paired stone. Ruby is the stone the tradition pairs with Chavakiah’s choir, the Powers. Worn near the throat or carried in the pocket for the duration.
Repeat for forty days. The tradition is consistent on this duration — long enough to break a settled pattern.
