The office Yelaiah holds

The tradition assigns to Yelaiah the office of the success of journeys; favourable outcome in courts of justice. The reader who has seen the corresponding pattern in modern life — success of journeys; favourable outcome in courts of justice — calls on Yelaiah 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 Yelaiah when the pattern of success of journeys; favourable outcome in courts of justice 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 Yelaiah is:

“Accept my offerings of praise, O Lord, and teach me thine ordinances.” Psalm 119:108

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 Yelaiah’s office.

The Goetia pair

In the countermanding tradition, Yelaiah stands against the Goetia spirit Shax — the 44th spirit of the Lesser Key of Solomon. Where Shax’s recorded domain has touched a reader’s life, the answer the tradition prescribes is not engagement with the spirit. The answer is Yelaiah.

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 Yelaiah by name. Speak or write the call. Do not address the countermanded spirit directly.
3. Recite the psalm verse. Psalm 119:108 is the standing prayer assigned to Yelaiah. Read aloud where possible, in the morning hour.
4. Carry the paired stone. Topaz is the stone the tradition pairs with Yelaiah’s choir, the Virtues. 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.
