Exploring the Powers of the Teaching Angels -
Part 1: Samael, the Angel of Mars and Spirit
My free Basic Angel Magic Course teaches about eight teaching angels, powerful beings dedicated to helping you unlock your full potential and discover your true Will. Each angel represents a planetary body with unique powers to aid those seeking guidance. In this series, we will explore all eight teaching angels, starting with Samael, the angel of Mars.
The Angel of Action, Passion, and Desire
Samael is an Archangel whose name means "venom of God." In some religious teachings, he is known as a fallen angel and is believed to be an angel of destruction and punishment. Yet, in others, he is seen as a benevolent figure that can bring spiritual transformation. Samael is often believed to be the angel Jacob wrestled with in an ancient Hebrew myth.
In my practice of the Pauline Arts of angelic magic, Samael is a benevolent guide who exists solely to serve the Creator and fulfill his purpose to help humanity. He exists to help us tap into our inner strength and courage, make difficult decisions, and take action toward realizing our desires. As the angel of Spirit, Samael guides us to find our passion and connect with our true Will, leading to powerful magic and enlightenment.
Consistent magical practice can spark the flame of creativity and allow us to connect with the divine quality known as Spirit consciously. This force enables us to conquer obstacles in our journey and manifest our true Will. The quality of Spirit aligns with the Qabalistic Sphere of Strength or Geburah. Being linked with the influential planet Mars and the mighty Archangel Samael, it is always active and never idle.
Samael, the Archangel of Mars, embodies the triumphant force of Spirit that inspires us to take action physically and mentally. Throughout history, spiritual leaders have emphasized the importance of taking action, persevering, and making firm decisions. At times, we may be guided to take no action in the physical world, but even during these periods of physical inactivity, we are still engaged in focused mental activity.
The Amazing Power of Spirit
By allowing ourselves to engage with the energy of Spirit and embody the power of Samael, we can build our spiritual strength and find true empowerment. Taking inspired action, triumphing over adversity, and making clear, informed decisions are all important steps on our magical path. It's important to remember that even when we may feel stuck or uncertain, the power of Spirit is always active within us, waiting for us to move forward and succeed.
The active and passionate pursuit of a connection with Spirit can bring true blessings and liberation to our lives. Focused, disciplined, and clear objectives are essential to harness our spiritual energy effectively. We must actively seek Infinite Spirit to achieve empowerment, avoid distractions, and stay aligned with our true Will. Through a conscious connection to Spirit and the guidance of Samael - the embodiment of the powerful Martial force - we can grow and succeed with discipline, focus, and steadfast determination.
When feeling uninspired, lethargic, or fearful, seeking guidance from Samael can provide invaluable support in overcoming obstacles and delays. The routine of daily life can distract us from the priceless gift of Spirit, but we can revive our connection to Spirit by taking inspired action to pursue our desires. By connecting with Samael and Spirit, we can gain clarity, focus, and the strength to overcome any challenge that comes our way.
The Virtuosity of Samael
The art of virtuosity requires continuous practice and action. Just like a virtuoso violinist practices for hours to perfect their craft, we too can become virtuosos of magic by consistently engaging in actions that yield the desired results. Through virtue, we become a force that positively impacts the world. By staying connected to Spirit, we find the power to conquer anything and everything that may challenge us.
Samael, the Archangel of Mars, symbolizes the angelic force of Spirit that resides within us, ready to help us on our journey. We can experience spiritual conquest and self-empowerment through Samael's guidance and strength. Although Mars is often associated with war and conflict, the power of Samael embodies the energy of righteous passion, courage, and determination, which enable us to overcome obstacles and delays and receive infinite good.
To release the powers of our Spirit and harness its strength, we must remain focused on our desires and commit to our true Will. By making firm decisions and staying determined, we achieve liberation and victory. In every step of our spiritual journey, we must remain vigilant and consciously connected with the powerful force of Spirit, allowing its vitalizing energy and reassuring presence to guide our every step.
Spirit requires us to decide to act—action through the power of Samael and the forces of Mars to conquer any obstacle. To become a virtuoso of magic, it is important to practice virtuous actions continually. Trust in the power of Spirit and the guidance of Samael to lead you to your highest good, and learn to master your craft with dedication.
The Meek Inheriting the Earth: Embracing Composure
Samael, the angelic expression of Mars, is often misunderstood as a symbol of anger and wrath. However, his true power lies in composure and peace. Being connected to Spirit equips us to remain calm despite adversity and take action inspired by the Divine Design - which always results in success.

By prioritizing actions based on Spirit's direction, we become a powerful force that can positively impact the world. Let us welcome our connection to Infinite Spirit, fuel our desires, overcome obstacles, and create the change we wish to see in the world.
Samael's unique approach to handling conflict and adversity can transform our lives. He teaches us to handle attacks with self-discipline, using opposition to our advantage. By reacting gently, irrational attackers are exposed, resulting in a peaceful resolution or making them retreat in fear. This prioritizes safety and cultivates true strength through composure.
