Vehuel

The angel whose name means “the great and high God” — whose office is charity, friendship, the keeping of peace.

Vehuel is the 49th 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 Vehuel means the great and high God. The angel’s office is charity, friendship, the keeping of peace.

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 Vehuel holds

The tradition assigns to Vehuel the office of charity, friendship, the keeping of peace. The reader who has seen the corresponding pattern in modern life — charity, friendship, the keeping of peace — calls on Vehuel 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 Vehuel when the pattern of charity, friendship, the keeping of peace 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 Vehuel is:

“Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised, and his greatness is unsearchable.” Psalm 145:3

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 Vehuel’s office.

The Goetia pair

In the countermanding tradition, Vehuel stands against the Goetia spirit Crocell — the 49th spirit of the Lesser Key of Solomon. Where Crocell’s recorded domain has touched a reader’s life, the answer the tradition prescribes is not engagement with the spirit. The answer is Vehuel.

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 Vehuel by name. Speak or write the call. Do not address the countermanded spirit directly.
Recite the psalm verse. Psalm 145:3 is the standing prayer assigned to Vehuel. Read aloud where possible, in the morning hour.
Carry the paired stone. Emerald is the stone the tradition pairs with Vehuel’s choir, the Principalities. 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.
