The Archangel Gabriel Options

Greetings followers of the Necronomicon.

I have read several times from people in this forum that the Spirit Barashakushu ( one of the fifty names) is actually the Archangel Gabriel. A few days later, i was searching through Konstantino's Summoning Spirits and found a description of the Archangel Gabriel with an attached sigil. I have found and compared the two sigils and they appear very different. You can search this for yourself by utilzing the pdf files of both grimoires ( if you dont have them, pm me and id gladly send them to you).

I wonder why the two sigils are different. Could it be that those who refer to Barashakushu are deluding themselves or that both sigils are potent enough to summon the same deity?

Greetings,

Well, I don't remember exacly which methodology does Konstantinos use in order to create sigils.
There are maaaaaany ways of creating them though. Most of them are based on the name of the
entity associated with hebrew letters, for instance, the widely used G.D. Rose with the hebrew letters.
Other than that, there is also another way, to examine how the name of an entity is written in hebrew,
with an algorithm based on the kamea transmute the letters to numbers and then, regarding the kamea
of the planet, every entity forms a different sigil in every one of the main 7 kameas (Magical Squares).

Keeping the above in mind, Barashakushu cannot have the same sigil as Gabriel, since their name is
spelled differently. It's like Venus (Roman) deriving from Aphrodite (Greek), exactly the same entity, with
a different name and therefore a different sigil.

If I remember correctly though, Konstantinos must have used the Rose of G.D.

Regarding the sigil of Barashakushu now, let alone that we may not know from who this sigil is formed,
we don't have a single clue which system was used in order to create them and also whether this sigil
was based on the entity's name or something else. There are many grimoires that contain sigils created
in a way that noone has a damn clue about. In every grimoire, similar pattents though exist among various
sigils.
