Manakel and the 7 of Swords
The 7 of Swords shows a man with less than honest intent. Manakel can protect us from the likes of him, whether they show up in a phishing email or in the form of a burglar.
But Manakel can also help us with the mental health side of the 7 of Swords. This Moon in Aquarius energy card can signify the kind of anxiety that comes from remaining emotionally distant and aloof. Manakel can help restore emotional balance and bring a sense of calm, connection and stability.
Many of the physical issues signified by Manakel/7 of Swords belong in the gut-brain connection category. Hence, Manakel is a beautiful angel to work with for anybody suffering from IBS or Crohn’s, as well as autoimmune issues.
In the form of the Angel of Good and Evil, Manakel can bring us discernment and help us avoid temptations. He helps us see if people are likely to help us feel calm or if they will bring stress and negativity into our lives. Manakel also helps us forgive those who caused us to be hyper-vigilant or overly suspicious of others and their motives.
