Graphiel (also Gradiel) is a martian Planetary Intelligence which rules over the planet when it enters Aries and Scorpio. He also rules over the daemon Barzabel and is in turn ruled by either the Archangel Gabriel or Kamael, depending on the source. His name equals 325 when using Gematria, allowing it to fit on a martian magic square.
