Each evocable spirit is the vector, by a phenomenon of transposition, to known or unknown natural forces participating in the universal energy. Each one of them has its own identity and personality, its own sphere of influence and is a part of a very strict hierarchy which Saint Jerome has depicted.
° The first Hierarchy is composed by three Choral: The Seraphim, The Cherubims and The Thrones.
° The second Hierarchy is composed by three other Chorals: The Dominations, The Powers and The Virtues.
° The tird hierarchy is composed by again three Chorals: The Princes, The Archangels and The Angels.
The Archangels for example, are seven, and are the personification of the planetary energies, very important in magic:
Michael : The Sun
Gabriel : The Moon
Samael : Mars
Raphael : Mercury
Sachiel : Jupiter
Anael : Venus
Cassiel : Saturn
These nine Chorals, nine energies, evolve in the three superior worlds, these are the Hierarchies. But the world of action, Earth, the domain of mankind, has its own entities, which represents the forces having an incident on matter: The Genies (superior spirits) and also the Elementary, The Gnomes(spirits of the earth), The Ondines (spirits of water), The Sylphs (spirits of air) and The Salamanders (spirits of fire), Bringing us to the four elements so important in magic
