The conflation of Zaphkiel with Cassiel is explained by a mistranslation of the German [[grimoire]] of Johann Georg Faust. In his ''Magia naturalis et innaturalis'' (''Magic Natural and Unnatural''), Faust explains that Zaphkiel appears only on Saturday; however, in the context of the full passage, he is saying that Zaphkiel is the ruler over [[Barbiel]] in his capacity as the [[Archangels of the Zodiac|Archangel]] of [[Scorpio]]. | The conflation of Zaphkiel with Cassiel is explained by a mistranslation of the German [[grimoire]] of Johann Georg Faust.
