The sigil of Amnixiel in Theomagia by John Heydon.

Amnixiel is a nocturnal angel or demon, depending on the source, which corresponds to the geomantic figure Laetitia, and is ruled by Hismael. She also corresponds to the 28th Lunar Mansion.

Characteristics

She governs aches and diseases of the feet, lameness, scabs, itches, breakouts, boils and ulcers which form from putrefacted blood, and cold and moist diseases.

Textual History

The sigil of Amnixiel as given in MS Harley 6482, which was copied from Thomas Rudd around 1699.

Dreyfache Höllenzwang (1505) lists her as a member of the bourgeois class of Hell. However, Menstruae Revolutiones der XII Monaten by Heinrich Winand (1594) and MS Harley 6482, published more recently as A Treatise of Angel Magic, which was copied from an older document from an older document by Thomas Rudd (1583-1656) around 1699, name her as the spirit governing the 28th Lunar Mansion. The latter text provides the first sigil for this spirit, and alongside Theomagia by John Heydon (1663) place her under the control of Hismael and attach her to the geomantic figure Laetitia. Theomagia also provides a new sigil, which is copied by Liber Gaias by Aleister Crowley (1857-1947). The Universal Fortune-Teller by John Parkins (1810), however, gives a slightly different sigil.
