The '''[[Angel Tarot]]''' is a deck of [[Tarot]] cards created by [[occultist]] [[Travis McHenry]]. Like its companion deck, the [[Occult Tarot]], the Angel Tarot was highly influential among the esoteric and [[metaphysics|metaphysical]] community for its adherence to [[Kabbalah|Kabbalistic]] teachings and its depiction of [[angel]]s as more than just humans with wings. To research the deck, he traveled to the Arsenal Library (''Bibliothèque de l'Arsenal'') in Paris, France and examined three [[grimoire]]s of [[black magic]]. These handwritten manuscripts were previously unpublished, and contained the oldest-known source of the seals used to summon specific [[angel]]s. Travis photographed these seals and copied other information in the books, before returning to the United States, where he created the deck.
'''[[Archangel Gabriel]]''' is an [[archangel]] with power to announce [[Yahweh|God's]] will to men. He is mentioned in the [[Bible|Hebrew Bible]], the New Testament, and the Quran. The [[Abrahamic religion]]s all recognize Gabriel as an [[angel]]ic spirit. Many [[Christianity|Christian]] traditions — including Catholicism, Eastern Orthodoxy, and Anglicanism — also revere Gabriel as a [[saint]].
