Harahel (also known as Harakel or Harachel) is the 59th Shem HaMephorash and is traditionally known as the Angel of Intellectual Wealth. His name is commonly translated as “The Omniscient God” or “The All-Pervading God,” pointing to a spiritual force that is expansive, integrated, and capable of seeing how knowledge fits into the whole.

The vibration of his name is sounded as Heh-Reh-Cheh, a mantra that aligns thought with usefulness, ethics, and constructive application. Harahel’s gifts are not concerned with abstract cleverness, but with intelligence that serves life, solves real problems, and produces lasting value.
Harahel belongs to the Angelic Choir of Archangels and operates under the rulership of Archangel Raphael in Hod, the sphere associated with intellect, communication, systems, and learning. His planetary correspondences are Mercury and Jupiter, combining precision, logic, and communication with growth, wisdom, and higher understanding. Harhel’s element is Earth, anchoring his intellectual qualities in practicality and real-world results.
The colours of the Angel of Intellectual Wealth are clear and pink, and his gemstone is Hyacinth (red-brown zircon). This stone helps with grounded intelligence and productivity.
Guardian Angel Dates and Rulership
Harahel is the primary Guardian Angel for those born between 11 and 15 January, which corresponds to the first five days of the third and final decan of Capricorn. The remaining five days of this decan are ruled by the angel Mitzrael.
His daily regency is between 7:20 and 7:40 pm (local solar time), a favourable window for study, writing, prayer, or Tarot work focused on clarity and problem-solving.
Harahel’s secondary rulership dates are:
- 7 March
- 19–20 May (until noon)
- 3 August
- 16 October
- 27 December (until 18:00)
In the Shem Angel system, each person is born under the influence of three Guardian Angels. The primary angel governs physical and external life themes, the secondary angel influences emotional patterns and challenges, and the angel ruling the time of day reflects intellectual capacity and mental orientation.

Psalm 113:3 KJV
The Qualities of the Angel of Intellectual Wealth
Harahel is an angel of wisdom, intelligence, and innovation, but always with an emphasis on usefulness and ethical application. He encourages discernment: not all information is worth absorbing, and not all knowledge deserves equal weight. One of his key teachings is learning to ask whether what we are taking in can actually serve a constructive purpose.
His presence often brings mental relief rather than excitement. People working with Harahel frequently report a sense of calm clarity, renewed motivation, and the feeling that a complex problem can finally be approached in manageable steps. He supports learning that leads to productivity, creativity that bears fruit, and communication that promotes understanding rather than division.
Harahel is particularly supportive of those who teach, write, organise, publish, or manage systems of information. He helps ensure that knowledge is used for the highest good rather than ego, manipulation, or personal gain.

The Angel of Intellectual Wealth and the 4 of Pentacles
Harahel corresponds with the 4 of Pentacles, corresponding with the Sun in Capricorn. The number four brings structure and stability, reinforced by Capricorn’s Earth element. In the imagery of the card, this solidity is unmistakable, but it carries an important lesson.
While the 4 of Pentacles can indicate security, boundaries, and preservation, it can also point to rigidity, over-attachment, or an excessive focus on the material realm. Harahel’s influence helps us navigate this balance. He teaches how to establish sound boundaries without becoming closed, defensive, or resistant to change.
The Pentacle positioned above the figure’s crown in the card speaks directly to Harahel’s domain: intellect that is anchored, disciplined, and applied thoughtfully. He helps us evaluate whether information, beliefs, or habits are genuinely useful, and whether they support growth or merely maintain the status quo.
For those who have the 4 of Pentacles as a Birth Card, Harahel is an especially valuable ally. He can soften excessive rigidity while also protecting against external pressures to conform. His guidance reminds us that making a difference often requires thinking independently and, at times, breaking the rules.
The Three Letters of Harahel and the Major Arcana
Harahel’s name unfolds through three Hebrew letters: Hei, Resh, and Chet. These letters resonate symbolically with three Major Arcana archetypes, offering a powerful contemplative sequence.
- Hei — The Hierophant
Sacred knowledge, teaching, tradition, and the ethical transmission of wisdom. - Resh — Judgement
Awakening, reassessment, and the call to release outdated beliefs and mental habits. - Chet — Justice
Truth, balance, discernment, and intellectual honesty.
Laying out The Hierophant, Judgement, and Justice together offers a powerful way to attune to Harahel’s wisdom. I recommend working with a Tarot de Marseille deck for this exercise. The Tarot spread below allows you to explore his guidance in a more personal and applied way.

This Tarot spread invites the calm, clarifying intelligence of Harahel into situations involving learning, decision-making, writing, or mental overwhelm. It is especially helpful when you feel stuck in repetitive thinking, unsure how to apply what you know, or in need of practical direction rather than abstract insight.
Before beginning, take a few quiet breaths and focus your intention. If you wish, softly repeat Harahel’s mantra Heh-Reh-Cheh, allowing your thoughts to settle and your attention to become steady.

Sample Reading
Harahel is my primary Shem angel, so I approached this as a solar return Tarot reading for guidance in the year ahead, using the Biblical Tarot: Shadows of the Soul. The intention was not prediction, but clarity: to observe where my thinking is stable, where it is constrained, and how it wants to evolve.
1. The Current State of My Thinking
4 of Wands (Candles)
The 4 of Wands suggests that my thinking is currently resting on a solid foundation. Ideas feel coherent and internally consistent, and there is a sense of having arrived at something that holds. At the same time, this stability has been hard-won, and there is a hint that what feels secure may also be a little too settled, favouring what already works over what wants to grow next.
2. Where My Mind Is Overly Guarded or Restricted
The Lovers
Here, The Lovers points to an unwillingness to commit fully. This does not feel like indecision, but caution. There is a reluctance to invest heart and intellect in something in case it turns out not to be true. Discernment is present, but so is a quiet self-protection that limits intimacy with new ideas.
3. A Belief or Mental Habit Ready to Be Released
The Chariot
The Chariot highlights a pattern of believing that progress must always be driven, controlled, or achieved through force of will. Releasing this habit feels less like losing direction and more like trusting that movement does not always need to be commanded in order to be meaningful.
4. Knowledge or Insight I Am Ready to Deepen
Queen of Swords (Feathers)
The Queen of Swords calls for refinement rather than accumulation. This is about deepening clarity, truth-telling, and intellectual honesty. It points to trusting my own discernment and my ability to name what is real, even when doing so cuts through illusion or expectation.
5. How to Apply My Intellect More Ethically and Productively
King of Pentacles (Grains)
The King of Pentacles reminds me that wisdom must be embodied to be useful. Thought becomes ethical when it is grounded, steady, and accountable. This card emphasises applying intelligence in ways that sustain life and create something tangible, rather than simply impressing the mind.
6. The Support Harahel Offers Me at This Time
The Fool (The Soul)
Harahel’s support comes through as openness and trust. The Fool suggests an encouragement to think freely again, without tightening control or over-structuring insight. There is permission here to allow ideas to arrive naturally, without forcing them prematurely into form.
7. The Long-Term Outcome of Disciplined, Honest Thinking
5 of Wands (Candles)
The 5 of Wands does not feel like conflict so much as creative friction. It suggests engagement, dialogue, and the productive testing of ideas. When thinking is allowed to interact with other perspectives, it becomes more alive, dynamic, and responsive rather than fragmented.
Overall Theme of the Reading
Taken together, the reading reflects Harahel’s domain clearly. It speaks of stability without stagnation, discernment without rigidity, and intelligence that remains open to growth. The emphasis is not on having the final answer, but on staying in honest relationship with the questions that matter.
