Abrinael
Abrinael (Abrunael): Angel of the Lunar Mansion Sadabath
Abrinael—sometimes rendered as Abrunael—is one of the twenty-eight angels who govern the Mansions of the Moon, an ancient celestial system used in both astrology and magical traditions. These lunar mansions divide the moon’s journey through the zodiac into 28 distinct phases, each associated with specific influences, events, and governing spirits. Abrinael is the angelic ruler of the 24th Mansion of the Moon, known as Sadabath (or Sa’d al-Bula in Arabic astrology), a phase associated with love, loyalty, emotional courage, and the quiet strength of enduring bonds.
Though relatively obscure, Abrinael plays a complex and paradoxical role. He is said to support marriage and the bond between couples, while also aiding soldiers—those who must endure hardship, conflict, or separation. At the same time, he is known to hinder governments, especially those who rule unjustly or impose oppressive control over the people. Thus, Abrinael embodies both harmony and resistance, reflecting the moon’s ability to nurture and to disrupt.
Abrinael and the 24th Lunar Mansion: Sadabath
The 24th Mansion of the Moon, Sadabath, is traditionally associated with:
- Building and repairing relationships
- Emotional resilience in times of hardship
- Spiritual preparation for conflict or challenge
- Secrets, hidden motives, and the inner world of emotions
Abrinael, as its angelic guardian, governs these energies and guides those who are navigating love under pressure, marriage amid adversity, or battles of conscience. He blesses unions that are forged in loyalty and mutual trust, but also gives strength to those who defend what is right, whether in the realm of the heart or the battlefield.
Domains and Symbolism
- Protector of Marriage and Enduring Love Abrinael is said to bless marriages, particularly those tested by time, distance, or hardship. Couples who seek protection for their union—especially when facing external pressures or emotional strain—can invoke Abrinael for strength, clarity, and lasting devotion.
- Supporter of Soldiers and Spiritual Warriors As an angel who aids warriors, Abrinael embodies courage, discipline, and sacrifice. He offers his guidance to those who engage in literal battle and those fighting internal or spiritual battles. He is a patron of those who protect others but must also endure solitude, conflict, and loss.
- Hinderer of Corrupt Authority In magical texts and angelic lore, Abrinael is known to oppose governments—especially those that act in disharmony with divine law. He is not a bringer of chaos, but a corrective force who challenges misuse of power. Those who invoke him for justice may find sudden insight, inspiration, or disruption of systems that no longer serve the collective good.
- Guardian of Secrets and Subconscious Wisdom Linked with the mysteries of the moon, Abrinael governs hidden knowledge, emotional depth, and the psychic undercurrents of life. He encourages the uncovering of truths—especially within relationships or political dynamics—that have long been obscured.
Magical and Esoteric Use
In lunar magic, each mansion has specific ritual functions. Abrinael’s mansion, Sadabath, is an auspicious time to:
- Strengthen marital or romantic bonds
- Perform rituals for protection during warfare or conflict
- Call for disruption of harmful authority
- Invoke clarity in emotionally complex situations
Practitioners of angelic magic, astrological magic, or lunar rites may work with Abrinael during the waxing or full moon phase when it passes through the 24th mansion. His name may be inscribed on talismans, amulets, or invoked in sacred circles dedicated to justice, loyalty, and emotional strength.
Correspondences

Abrinael is a guardian of loyalty, resilience, and righteous resistance. He teaches that love is not passive but courageous, that devotion can coexist with strength, and that sometimes true harmony requires conflict with what is unjust. In a world where relationships and authority are constantly tested, Abrinael offers an ancient lunar light—guiding those who seek to stay true to their hearts, defend the vulnerable, and challenge systems that betray divine order.
