As an Archangel of the Zodiac, Gabriel is mentioned in many [[grimoire]]s from the 1500s onward. His name first appears in print in this context in ''[[Three Books of Occult Philosophy]]'' (1531), but must have come from an older, unidentified source. The ''[[Magical Calendar]]'' (1619) marks the earliest publication of his summoning seal. ''Arsenal Manuscript 2495'' (1600s) contains the earliest known explanation of the angel's abilities, although this text likely utilized an older source. ''[[Theomagia]]'' by [[John Heydon]] (1663) lists him as a spirit under the control of Zazel in addition to giving them a corresponding geomantic figure and a new sigil. | As an Archangel of the Zodiac, Gabriel is mentioned in many [[grimoire]]s from the 1500s onward.
