Hierarchy of Angels

There is a Hierarchy within the Angelic Realm just as there is within the rest of the universe. The Angel community is the perfect example of this hierarchal order and structure.

(The Blue Text are links that will move you to specific areas quickly, making referencing that much easier)

On this page you will find a discussion on each of the following Angelic Hierarchies:

• The Christian Hierarchy of Angels including the First Hierarchal Sphere, the Second Hierarchal Sphere and the Third Hierarchal Sphere.
• The Jewish Angelic Hierarchy
• The Kabalistic Angelic Hierarchy

The Christian Angelic Hierarchy

The Kingdom is divided into 3 Hierarchies and 9 Choirs. Each section of the community has its own purpose and energy.

In the table below the left hierarchal organization of Angels are according to Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite in the Fourth or Fifth century, in his book "The Celestial Hierarchy" and is considered the standard in the Western World.

In the right table is the Hierarchal organization of Angels from the comparative study of the Old Testament and New Testament passages, including their etymology (history of the words) and semantics, several theological works (which contain variations) and esoteric Christian teachings.

The First Hierarchal Sphere

Heavenly Counselors - (Old Testament sources)

The Second Hierarchal Sphere

Heavenly Governors - (New Testament sources)

The Third Hierarchal Sphere

Heavenly Messengers

Personally I like to add the Elemental Kingdom in just below the angels and don't forget your own personal helper from the Angelic Kingdom... your Guardian Angel!

The Jewish Angelic Hierarchy

According to Jewish Encyclopedia, "Angelology", Maimonides, in his "Yad ha-Chazakah: Yesodei ha-Torah", states there are ten hierarchal ranks of Angels in the Jewish Angelic Hierarchy, and as above the following organization of the Angels begins at the highest rank.

The Kabalistic Angelic Hierarchy

Tree Of Life

The Tree of Life is one of the most familiar of the Sacred Geometry Symbols. The structure of the Tree of Life is connected to the sacred teachings of the Jewish Kabala. The Tree of Life describes the descent of the divine into the manifest world, and methods by which the divine union may be attained in this life. It can be viewed as a map of the human psyche, and of the workings of creation, both manifest and not.

According to the Kabala as described by the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn the Angelic Hierarchy is as follows:

There are ten Archangels, each commanding one of the choirs (orders) of angels and corresponding to one of the Sephirot as seen in the "Tree of Life" above. As you can see this hierarchal layout is very similar to the Jewish Angelic Hierarchy.
