Powers are the angels that go to war with forces of evil on behalf of humanity. Another candidate for the ever popular guardian angels, they keep evil in check.

Powers are known to guard and guide the hands of Godโ€™s ordained Kings and Queens, as their decisions impact the fates of many.

Dominions, as their name may suggest, have dominion over the cosmic order.

These angels maintain the delicate balance of the Heavens quite literally! They oversee the stars and planets while also keeping their fellow angels in line. You might call them โ€œHeavenโ€™s Bureaucratsโ€.

Next are the Virtues. These are well known to make up Heavenโ€™s choir, singing Godโ€™s praises.

Virtues are known to govern storms, strong winds, & assist with miracles- healings in particular. Naturally they assist humanity & may be guardian angels.

Cherubim

The cherubim are not fat faced babies but rather four faced, four winged creatures with a single โ€œrigidโ€ leg. They have the faces of man, ox, lions, & eagles.

Some debate the archangels are cherubim.

Cherubim do much work, including protecting the garden of Eden & delivering messages.

Thrones or โ€œOphanimโ€.

Thrones are recently popular & often chosen to represent โ€œbiblically accurate angelโ€. They are flaming wheels of eyes that pull the chariot of God.

Despite being associated with horror are considered docile & maintain the harmony of all creation, ever in His presence.

Seraphim - the โ€œfieryโ€ ones.

Seraphim is the plural of โ€œseraphโ€. They are beings of fire with six wings that circle the throne of God crying โ€œholy, holy, holy!โ€ As noted in Isaiah.

They may be described as flames or humanoid, but the six wings are their giveaway & their fire is โ€œone of passionโ€.

are also highly favored and serve God directly. How they may be ranked among the lowest order is subject of much debate.

However this can be explained by their sense of personality which I trust will make sense shortly-

Further more, it is unanimously agreed that Michael & Gabriel are the favored two among all angels.

Which one you assign to the left or right hand of God doesnโ€™t matter- the position is accredited to no other beings. God has elevated these 2 archangels above all their fellows. The other archangels

the third are the โ€œlowestโ€(as low as any angel may be).

However there is much to be disputed here. Across many Abrahamic faiths we see archangels considered not so much a โ€œspeciesโ€ as the others are, but rather a title that might be bestowed to any angel.

Currently the positions are all filled.

Pseudo-Dionysius divides the angels into 3 major orders:

1) Thrones, Cherubim, & Seraphim
2) Virtues, Powers, & Dominations
3) Archangels, Angels, & Principalities

These numbered groupings are relevant as they are a direct hierarchy. The first group is the greatest, the second is of medium rank, &

โœจDe Coelesti Hierarchiaโœจ

โ€œOn Celestial Hierarchyโ€ is the name of a 5th century work by the Greek philosopher known as Pseudo-Dionysius. The work was adopted by Thomas Aquinas for Catholicism.

It details the hierarchy of angels which I will summarize for you here. ๐Ÿงต

What is an angel?

Angels are lesser celestial beings popularized by Abrahamic faiths, primarily Christianity. They are widely depicted as humanoid, winged, and radiant with beauty & heavenly light.

Why, then, do they always begin their messages to man with the preface, โ€œbe not afraidโ€?
