Vehuaih emerged to the magician Franz Buchmann-Naga in 1916/1917 as a foggy structure with “lovely but loud sound of a bell”, clothed with a gown as common in the Middle ages. This powerful angel also appeared to Franz Buchman-Naga with ball-lightnings, making the impression of “fiery eyes”.
Keys
1. Cabala Key: VHU is the three letters name of God for Vehuiah. In Hebrew it is והו. It should be pronounced like Vehava, though suggestions were also made to pronounce it as Vehu. This name also appears as VaHeyVa in Abulafia’s Book of Desire (1279), written for those who wants to pronounce the 72 letters. Its English epitaph is Exalting God. In Latin it is Deus Exaltator. Exalting God is also the epithet for the three letters names of God LAU. Vehuiah also forms two other related names of God – Vahu and Vehu. They are given to Moses. According to Sepher Raziel, when you mention Vahu, you will get what you ask from God. It is also mentioned in both The Sixth and Seventh Books of Moses and Semiphoras und Schemhamphoras, where it is used to satisfied each requests. Sepher Raziel tells that Vehu is mentioned to destroy evil and all enchantments. This name was written in Moses’ wand when he made the brazen serpent and destroyed the golden calf. It is also mentioned in Semiphoras und Schemhamphoras Salomonis regis, but there it should be named when you do “something wonderful” or are “in great need”.
2. Divine Key – Kether: You may hear from Vehuiah many untold stories about Kether, the Crown of the universe, in which all beings live in the perfect unity and harmony with each other. Kether is the first plane of Divine manifestation in the universe. We had come from Nothingness to Kether as sparks of Divine creation and have evolved after many incarnations into human beings here on the Earth. Vehuiah overviews the whole process of emanation and additionally supports individuals on their way back to Kether, once they feel an urge to return there. Vehuaih also explains number 1, which is the number of the unity, in which no separations, duality and polarities exist. In this number masculine and feminine potency are united and will arose and expand only in all later numbers. This holy angel also teaches about the initial power which creates all other numbers.
1. Mental – Astral Key – Mars: Vehuiah is a Mercurial spirit but he also has a great affinity to Mars. Therefore, he is also an excellent initiator into the Mars Zone mysteries. For example, he may teach the magician how to evoke spirits from Mars in a safe manner.
4. Mental – Astral Key – Hod: As the first Shem angel, Vehuiah is also the initiator and supervisor of Hod, the eight sephira on the Tree of Life. Hod is associated with Mercury, but it is much larger than what we spot as the planet of Mercury. Hod consists of four different spheres and the material plane of Mercury is just its small mundane chakra or point. Hod is situated left of the Middle Pillar on the Tree of Life. It is an intellectual brilliantine of the Tree of Life. Some Hermetists say that it forms together with Netzchah and Yesod the lower astral triad or astral triangle of the Tree of Life. Hod is a sphere of intellect, knowledge, communications, magic, trade, literature, science and travel. If the magician uses that knowledge properly, Hod will open up gates of new discoveries spontaneously and at right time. Hod is also the Absolute or Perfect Intelligence and it is also the sphere of Hermes and Hermetic tradition.
5. Mental – Astral Key – Mercury: Vehuiah is one of the main initiators into Mercury magic, so he also likes hosting magicians when they are on their visits to this planet. A human eye cannot spot living creatures on the Mercurial ground, because life emerges on Mercury starting from its astral region. Human conscious moves at the great speed to Mercury, but you can also chose to make a break during your journey in order to enjoy the scenery of cosmic architecture in its full wonder. Once your mind stops traveling, that will be a sign that you have already reached the Mercurial astral region. At that moment you would be already shaped in your Mercurial astral body and ready to take a walk around that planet.
6. Elemental Key – Fire magic: Vehuiah is the initiator and supervisor of the 1st magical field Fire magic. This great angel explains all secrets of fire magic related to: the fire element, electric volts, evocation of fire spirits, fire in alchemy, salamanders, fiery dragons, magical wands, fire symbols, fire in ceremonial magic, magical authority, success in all fields, will power, inspiration and courage. This thunderous angel fills people with energy and courage to start and finish anything they want. Sometimes it is difficult to get up from bed to go to work or to fulfill any other daily activities, but then you can ask Vehuiah to help you strengthen your energy, faith and will. Vehuiah will certainly push you into action, if you feel lazy or a bit depressed. You will be out fighting for your rights, either you want it or not. In the case of more severe depression, you will still need to ask for professional medical help. Study the fire element from the books written by old European, Persian, Indian and Chinese masters, or by reliable modern authors. Your inspiration might guide you to explore even such traditions you are not so much familiar with, because the fire tends to opens up the paths for something unusual and new. Use the fire in your magical ceremonies and rituals. Learn about fiery aspects in alchemy. Get knowledge about Court cards of fire in tarot. If you like the Bible, you may study: Book of Isaiah 6:1-8, Numbers 21:6–8, Deuteronomy 8:15, Book of Revelation IV – 4-8, Books of Enoch and stories about Ezekiel’s vision. Get familiar with the mystery of the mighty Seraphim order. Find a fireplace, wood stove, or just light a candle to enjoy fire in its hypnotizing beauty. Make your own magical wands through inspiration. Evoke a fire spirit. They instruct that everything is achievable – if that’s our wish – through the element of fire. After a while, you will be able to easily see and recognize salamanders around you in your daily life. They come along with the fire, usually emerging from the Earth Zone, but sometimes from other planetary spheres too. They are ready to show their fiery regions to mature magicians.
Vehuiah is the initiator and the supervisor of Fire magic, but great teachers of the fire magic among the Shem angels are also:
– Melahel – control of the fire element and being in good terms with its
Spirits.
– Seeiah – evocations of different fiery spirits.
Vehuiah also cooperates closely with the heads of the Earth Zone whose faculties are related to fire magic. All of those heads are very mighty, so consider to evoke them outside. They are:
– Morech (1° Aries) – active, impulsive and extreme knowledge
– Malacha (2° Aries) – the fire element on different planes
– Kosem (1° Leo) – fire in the Earth Zone
– Aluph (1°Scorpio) – fire on the physical plane of the Earth
– Bekaro (22° Aries) – salamanders
– Molabeda (2° Taurus) – secrets of nature and sex
– Nudatoni (2° Cancer) – volcanoes and earthquakes
– Serap (1° Taurus) – passion
– Lurchi (4° Aries) – love and wealth
– Galago (12° Taurus) – impregnation of aura
– Tabbata (10° Leo) – Invulnerability against fire.
7. Astral – Physical Key – Protection against malevolent spirits: Vehuiah efficiently protects against malevolent spirits. They usually do not come out from nowhere. We will fairly easily attract them, if we happened to share with them some similar interests, lifestyle and characters. We also often unwillingly give them the power over ourselves, and sometimes we do it even willingly. If a malevolent demon appears in front of you while you are invoking a Shem angel, it might often mean that he was near you anyway. Vehuiah can tell a lot of interesting stories about malevolent demons and other mischievous spirits from all around the world. He is especially helpful against annoying spirits from the Mars and Mercury zones.
8. Physical Key – Leadership: Vehuiah is a guardian of all genuine leaders. He may give you the spiritual authority and the power to rule and lead, so it is useful to seek his help if you aspire to be a leader. Let Vehuiah inspire your art, work and life. Communicate with him daily about your problems and doubts. Ask him for advice whenever you feel for it. He is a very busy angel, so he will possibly send you a muse for your everyday doubts and activities. If you observe daily progress in your life and work, it should be a clear sign of his direct or indirect presence.
