Archangel Jophiel - Tumblr Posts
*Archangel post!*
OKAY I lied AGAIN but it’s only because I ended up having to write shortened summaries for all the archangels anyways! So here’s a big post about all of them :>
okay brief summaries (I PROMISE THIS IS BRIEF THERES A LOT OF INFO 😰) of the archangels:
Michael- archangel of strength and bravery. He is usually considered the protector of heaven. He was the one who had to cast Lucifer out of heaven. (Uh which he kind of feels guilty for a lot because although Lucifer did a big no no and betrayed god all the angels are very close and consider eachother siblings. Lucifer, Raphael, Michael, and Gabriel in particular were very close.
Uriel - Angel of knowledge, very reserved he’s not mean but he prefers being alone. He runs the library in heaven and is the protector of all its knowledge including “forbidden knowledge”.
Raphael - Angel of healing super chill guy and super kind. He helps like heal injured angels and also meditates/prays a lot.
Ariel- she is the Angel of nature kind of acting as a Mother Nature type figure. She works with Raphael a lot and helps with taking care of sick or injured animals and angels and Vice versa.
Jophiel - Angel of that represents ‘the beauty of god’ they have the ability to shapeshift into any thing that was made by God. They also fight along side Michael and help train other angels.
Chamuel - archangel of love and relationship harmony though none of the angels can experience romantic relationships they understand human relationships better than the majority of angels. Like Gabriel they are also somewhat a messenger but for love and God’s love.
Azrael - the Angel of death, sort of acts like a grim reaper. She never technically “fell” but she is considered somewhat a fallen Angel. Though she is more neutral ground and usually stays in purgatory rather than heaven or hell. Though she visits heaven more so than hell (when not delivering souls)
Gabriel - Gabriel is the Angel of visions and God’s messages. He is the youngest out of the archangels and looks up to his siblings very much. He also sometimes gifted with visions of the future. He is goodnatured but maybe a bit naive, but rarely does he lack optimism.
Lucifer - Before he fell he was regarded as one of God’s most perfect angels. Considered the Angel of light or harbinger of God’s light. He was somewhat reserved like Uriel but he was also a little bit of a prankster. Lucifer strived for perfection at almost everything. But everything changed when God revealed his plan to create humanity. Lucifer saw this as a threat, as a sign God was replacing them. As such he decided to retaliate and sabotage the humans (the story of Adam and Eve) after when God found out he had Michael cast Lucifer out of heaven where he was banished from now. Blaming the humans, he now planned to wipe them out for good. There’s a lot more but that’s all I will put here for now or else we will be here all day. I will probably make another post going into more detail about Lucifer post-fall era later.
hi okay so um I got my iPad working again (I think) but uh :,) I lost all my files on procreate um.. it’s okay though! Because for the most part I had everything saved as images so I still have the actual pieces. There’s a few WIPs I’ve lost but nothing I can’t redo. But I wanted to post some angel project stuff I’ve had lying around because I haven’t in a minute and I’ve been working on it in the background. I wanted to get a few more ref sheets done so I could post them all at once but I figured I might as well show these ones now.
