Imamiah

The angel whose name means “God elevated above all things” — whose office is the destruction of the work of enemies; the granting of humility.

Imamiah is the 52nd 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 Imamiah means God elevated above all things. The angel’s office is the destruction of the work of enemies; the granting of humility.

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 Imamiah holds

The tradition assigns to Imamiah the office of the destruction of the work of enemies; the granting of humility. The reader who has seen the corresponding pattern in modern life — destruction of the work of enemies; the granting of humility — calls on Imamiah 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 Imamiah when the pattern of destruction of the work of enemies; the granting of humility 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 Imamiah is:

“I will give to the Lord the thanks due to his righteousness, and I will sing praise to the name of the Lord, the Most High.” Psalm 7:17

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 Imamiah’s office.

The Goetia pair

In the countermanding tradition, Imamiah stands against the Goetia spirit Alloces — the 52nd spirit of the Lesser Key of Solomon. Where Alloces’s recorded domain has touched a reader’s life, the answer the tradition prescribes is not engagement with the spirit. The answer is Imamiah.

How the tradition prescribes the call

  1. Name the pattern. Write down, clearly, the specific way you suspect the influence is operating. Vague suspicion gives the influence cover.
  2. Call on Imamiah by name. Speak or write the call. Do not address the countermanded spirit directly.
  3. Recite the psalm verse. Psalm 7:17 is the standing prayer assigned to Imamiah. Read aloud where possible, in the morning hour.
  4. Carry the paired stone. Emerald is the stone the tradition pairs with Imamiah’s choir, the Principalities. Worn near the throat or carried in the pocket for the duration.
  5. Repeat for forty days. The tradition is consistent on this duration — long enough to break a settled pattern.
