In my beginning studies of angels I have noticed that Mathers assigns the angel Michael to Tipareth and most other sources assign Raphael. Does anyone know why there is a disparity and which is the correct assignment?

If we go color-wise, Raphel is definetly more yellow and Michael more red and/or orange. I generally use JMD's approach to the Sephiroth. Which is very similar to Crowley's and or Regardies......who said to consider the Sephiroth like filing cabinets.
Dion Fortune also has Raphael under Tipareth and Michael under Hod. I just find it strange that Mather's is out of step on this attribution.

I'm a pretty poor mage. However, I'm fairly good at humor as we Americans see it. Sorry it annoyed you. My comments about angels in the living room is typical toungue in cheek humor. I was making fun of myself, actually.
I see most subjects as humorous and open to question. It's when we take them and ourselves too seriously that we develop problems. So let the frivolity begin. Sun in sag and moon in geminii here.. sorry. Must drive you serious types up the wall.
