Who is the angel Yeratel?

Yeratel is the angel of trust rebuilding itself and of sound judgement. He watches over those who refuse injustice without letting resentment take hold, and who seek, in the depths of hardship, a peace that depends on no one but themselves.

The origin of the name Yeratel

Yeratel is the twenty-seventh sacred name of the Shem HaMephorash — the 72 divine names drawn by the kabbalists from the three verses of Exodus (XIV, 19-21). His Hebrew name יֵרַתְּאֵל translates literally as "God who punishes the wicked". His key is the love of justice, that inner demand which protects without wounding. The traditional invocation drawn from the Psalms is: "Rescue me, Yeratel, from evildoers; protect me from the violent" (Psalm 140, v.1).

His place in the angelic hierarchy

Yeratel belongs to the choir of the Dominions — the angels who regulate the order of the world and temper strength with wisdom, placed under the authority of the Sephira Hesed, mercy. It is from this choir that his ability to restore balance where injustice reigns comes. His ruling archangel is Archangel Zadkiel, keeper of clemency and forgiveness.

His spiritual mission

Yeratel's mission is to restore your trust when life has worn it down, and to keep you lucid in the face of both happiness and hardship. He dispels the torpor that sometimes follows success, and brings you back to the essential: moving forward with integrity.

For those he protects, Yeratel clears away confusion and soothes the need to control everything. He teaches how to tell the true from the false, to forgive without betraying oneself, and to find an inner peace that cannot be bargained away. Under his influence, people often become more tolerant, more generous, and curiously more confident about the future.

If Yeratel is your protecting angel, know that he always watches over you, wherever you are. He may even decide to send you a message when he feels you need to hear it, through a mirror hour. Stay attentive 😉.
