The person born under the influence of Vehuiah

Lenain describes the person born under the influence of Vehuiah as a subtle mind, gifted with great sagacity. They are passionate about the sciences and the arts, and feel able to undertake and then carry through the hardest tasks. He credits them with a great deal of energy, which he ties to fire and to Mars, the planet of his decan.

Read today, this portrait sketches someone who likes to open new projects: learning a new discipline, launching a venture, taking up a challenge once thought too big. The taste for action it evokes has nothing warlike about it; it speaks of a way of moving forward, straight and fast, that gains from being sustained over time.

Why invoke this angel

Lenain says he was invoked to “obtain enlightenment,” that is, clarity of mind, facing east, at exactly midnight, while reciting a verse of a psalm. Many readers today keep the idea without the rite: a moment of silence before a decision, to see what really matters.

The opposing angel

The opposing angel, in Lenain, rules over turbulent spirits, promptness, and anger. This side does not describe a fault: it is a reminder that a lively fire quickly runs away. Slowing down by one breath before answering, letting a night pass over a disagreement, is often all it asks.

Three roles according to Lenain

  • For the body

    Born from March 20 to March 24

    Angel of your five-day period, Vehuiah colors, according to Lenain, your physical side: a need for movement, for departures, for things that begin. Spring and the start of the year resemble him; a pace that is too slow can weigh on you.

  • For speech

    Born on March 20, May 31, August 11, October 22, January 2

    Angel of your day, he marks your speech with a quick frankness: you say what you see, often before others do. This gift readily starts a discussion, provided you also let the reply come.

  • For the soul

    Born between midnight and 00:20

    Angel of your hour, Vehuiah touches what Lenain calls the soul and the mind: a thirst to understand and to open up. He watches over the very first slice of the night, from midnight to 12:20 AM, an image of a daily new beginning.

A question to ask yourselfWhat beginning are you putting off while waiting for the perfect moment?

One small stepWrite down tonight the first concrete action of a project left on hold, and do it tomorrow morning.

Tradition reported from Lenain (1823): a mirror for reflection, never a prediction or a promise.

Vehuiah: your questions

What does the name Vehuiah mean?

Lenain gives him the attribute “God raised up and exalted above all things.” Like the other 71, his name comes from the Shem HaMephorash, the divine name of 72 names that the Kabbalah draws from three verses of Exodus; the ending in -iah adds the name of God.

Why invoke Vehuiah, according to Lenain?

To obtain enlightenment, writes Lenain: clarity of mind at the moment of choosing. He sets the invocation between midnight and 12:20 AM, facing east. Versana reports this rite as a traditional practice; no prayer is presented here as a sure way to obtain anything.

Is Vehuiah my guardian angel?

According to Lenain, Vehuiah is the angel of the body for people born from March 20 to March 24, the angel of speech for a birth on March 20, May 31, August 11, October 22, or January 2, and the angel of the soul for a birth between midnight and 00:20. Modern lists, which start on March 21, often give dates shifted by one or two days.
