Electors -
In Conybeare, The
Testament of Solomon, there are 7 planetary spirits or angels of
Hell, the notion deriving from the maskim of the Akkadians.
The 7 are: Barbiel (under the rule of Zaphiel), Mephistophiel (under
Zadkiel), Ganael (under Apadiel and Camael), Aciel (under Raphael),
Anael (under Haniel), Ariel (under Michael), Marbuel (under
Gabriel). In the Magia Naturalis et Innaturalis, the
electors are fiends (not angels), and their names are given as:
Dirachiel, Amnodiel, Adriel, Amudiel, Tagriel, Annixiel, Geliel,
Eequiel. Agrippa's list of the 7 electors, which more or less
agrees with the list in The Testament of Solomon, has Bludon
and Apadiel in place of Anael and Ganael.
