Cassiel - wikipedia Cassiel Cassiel , ( also known as Cafziel , Cafzyel , Caphziel , Casiel , Cassael , Casziel , Kafziel , Kasiel , Qafsiel , Qaphsiel , Qaspiel , Qephetzial , or Quaphsiel ) , meaning `` Speed of God '' or `` God is my anger '' is an angel appearing in extracanonical Jewish , Christian , and Islamic mystical and magical works , often as one of the Seven Archangels , the angel of Saturn , and in other roles . Contents 1 In Jewish mystical literature 2 In western occult literature 3 Other works 4 In popular culture 5 References In Jewish mystical Literature Qafsiel amulet from the 15th century Qaphsiel is invoked in an ancient Hebrew charm to tell if an enemy is running away . Gustav Davidson writes that Qafsiel is described as the ruler of the seventh heaven in 3 Enoch , citing Odeberg 's edition . However , Odeberg 's edition only states in a footnote that Qafsiel is `` ( one of ) the guardian ( s ) of the door of the seventh Hall '' in Hekhalot Rabbati . In turn , Qaspiel is described in Hekhalot Rabbati as a guardian of the sixth palace , armed with a lightning - dripping sword ( which shouts `` Ruin ! '' ) as well as a bow , tempests , light , and powerful winds -- weapons which he uses against anyone not fit to see God . Qaspiel is later described in the same work as one of three `` guardians of the entrance of the seventh palace , '' alongside Dumiel and Gabriel . Qaspiel is also listed in Ma'aseh Merkavah as a guardian of the second palace . Sefer Raziel lists Qephetzial as the prince of Saturn . The Zohar describes Kafziel as one of the two chief aids ( alongside Hizikiel ) to Gabriel . In western occult Literature Illustration of Cassiel from The Magus by Francis Barrett ( 1801 ) Cassiel is listed in the related works The Sworn Book of Honorius and in ( pseudo ) - Peter de Abano 's Heptameron ( the latter also influenced by Sefer Raziel ) . Cassiel 's presence in Honorius may also be a result of Greek influence , as he is likewise listed in a Byzantine exorcism manual ( as Kasiel ) . In these works , he is , as usual , listed as the angel of Saturn but also as the angel of the North and as one of the angels named in the Sigillum Dei . Following Honorius and the Heptameron , Cassiel appears in the Liber de Angelis as Cassael ( again the angel over Saturn ) , then in various editions of the Key of Solomon as Cassiel or Cassael , angel ( sometimes archangel ) over Saturn or Saturday , and once again in the Sigillum Dei . Cassiel is depicted in Francis Barrett 's The Magus as a dragon - riding jinn with a beard , again as the angel over Saturn . Other works Cassiel is sometimes described as the angel of tears , the angel of temperance , or the angel who presides over the deaths of kings . As Qafsiel , he is sometimes regarded as the ruler of the moon instead of Saturn . Averroes likewise listed Kafziel as the angel of Saturn . In popular culture In Cassandra Clare 's City of Glass in The Mortal Instruments series , Jace recommends that Clary name his seraph blade `` Cassiel . '' Cassiel is the main protagonist in The Outcast Season series by Rachel Caine . Cassiel appears in Wim Wenders 's film Wings of Desire , as well as the U.S. remake , City of Angels . Wenders found the name in an encyclopedia about angels . Cassiel , played by Otto Sander in the original and Andre Braugher in the remake , watches with considerable ambivalence as his friend becomes human . In the sequel Faraway , So Close ! , Cassiel himself becomes human . Nick Cave wrote `` Cassiel 's Song '' as part of the music for that film In Jacqueline Carey 's Kushiel 's Legacy , Cassiel is one of the angels who follow the Blessed Elua in his wanderings .
