Description

Origin & Traditional Use

The Angel Tarot by Travis McHenry is a 78-card deck that assigns angels of the Kabbalistic and Solomonic traditions to the cards, with their seals and names.

Uses in the Work

Use it for divination with angelic intelligences and to balance demonic work with its opposites. Each card’s seal serves as a focus for contact with that angel, which suits ceremonial magicians who work with both hierarchies. Use the deck to ask a demon questions after evocation, drawing a card for each answer, and to confirm whether a spirit is willing to work with you before you begin. Draw a card each morning to record the influence of a patron spirit, and lay a spread before any major working to see what stands in the way. Individual cards make powerful focal images in spellwork: set The Devil, The Tower or Death on the altar as the symbol of the change you are calling in.

Lore

The 72 angels of the Shem HaMephorash, the hidden name of God in Kabbalah, are traditionally paired with the 72 demons of the Goetia, each angel said to have power over its counterpart. Travis McHenry draws on this tradition in his decks.
