The spiritual universe is full of mysteries and intriguing characters, and among them is Archangel Metatron, an enigmatic figure who transcends the boundaries of the celestial and terrestrial worlds. In this article, let's delve into the depths of rabbinic tradition and Jewish mystical literature to explore who Metatron is, what his role is, and his significance in different contexts. From Kabbalah to contemporary spirituality, Metatron embodies a powerful symbol of divine connection and spiritual ascension.
In sacred texts, Metatron is often described as the guardian of the Akashic records, preserving the secrets of wisdom and facilitating communication with the other archangels. With its pairs of majestic wings, it symbolizes proximity to divine forces and the creation of matter. Its earthly existence and proximity to mother earth attest to its crucial role in expressing meta-tronos, the explanation and exploration of the calm space where transcendental wisdom resides.
Archangel Metatron: meaning and history
Metatron: Angel or Archangel?
The Archangel Metatron is often referred to as an Archangel, although his status can vary according to interpretation and tradition, sometimes as the chief of the Angels. In the Kabbalistic tradition, Metatron is widely regarded as an Archangel of high rank, and is even often referred to as "The Prince of Archangels". However, it's important to note that the precise term used can vary between sources and teachings.
In some religious and esoteric traditions, the term "Archangel" is used more broadly to refer to elevated spiritual beings and divine messengers. This can lead to some confusion as to Metatron's precise classification as an Archangel or other similar terms.
Ultimately, whether called an "angel", "Archangel" or other, Metatron remains an important and influential spiritual figure, recognized for his role as spiritual guide, guardian of divine mysteries and mediator between the divine and the human, particularly in Kabbalistic and esoteric teachings.
Origin of Metatron
When investigating into the symbolism of Metatron, several theories about the possible etymological origins of the name "Metatron" exist. Despite the considerable efforts made by researchers to discover the etymology of this confusing word, the name of this main Archangel (sometimes Angel) still poses a conundrum. There is no scientific consensus on the origin of the name Metatron.
For example in rabbinic literature, it appears in two different forms, one written with six letters, and the other with seven letters.
On some websites we can also read that the etymology of the word "Metatron" comes from the Greek "metathronaios" which means "after the throne" or "beyond the throne" or even "assistant to the throne".
This hypothesis suggests that the name could be derived from the merger of the two Greek words, which in combination can be translated as "one who serves behind the throne" or "one who occupies the throne next to the throne". Throne of glory. This hypothesis has been supported by a number of scholars, but has been rejected by others, who observe that there is no such word as Metathronios in Greek.
Another hypothesis proposes that the name may be associated with the Persian Mithra. Some scholars indicate that there are a number of parallels between Metatron and Mithras, emphasizing their similar celestial functions. They suggest that the depiction of Mithras as the Guardian of the World, the Mediator of the Earth, the Prince of the World and the Witness of all thoughts, words and deeds recalls similar titles and activities of Metatron.
The name may also be derived from the Latin metator (a leader, guide, measurer or messenger). This etymology was supported by several famous Jewish medieval authorities. But here too some criticize this hypothesis by arguing that there is nothing in the authentic sayings about Metatron which justifies the derivation of the name metator.
And there are many other theories so it’s not that simple!
Archangel Metatron in the Bible and Jewish Tradition
Although Archangel Metatron is not explicitly mentioned in the Hebrew Bible (Old Testament), there are various allusions and clues. According to some interpretations, he is identified as the prophet Enoch who, according to the Book of Genesis, "walked with God" and was taken to heaven without knowing death since he was transformed into Metatron.
Metatron in Kabbalah
Kabbalah, the mystical tradition of Judaism, played a key role in the construction of the figure of Metatron. He is often referred to as the "Prince of the Face", acting as an intermediary between God and humanity.
Kabbalah refers to Metatron as one of the most prominent Archangels. Metatron is often described as the “celestial scribe” or the “keeper of secrets”. He is the one responsible for transmitting God's messages to the prophets and maintaining cosmic order. He is said to record all the actions of humanity in the Book of Life and to transmit divine teachings to the prophets. Metatron is also seen as the spiritual guide of souls on their journey to spiritual elevation.
According to Kabbalistic teachings, Metatron is also associated with the Tree of Knowledge, symbolizing its function as a bridge between the divine world and the material world. As I mentioned a little above, it appears at the top of the tree where it is associated with the Sephirah Keter, the crown. It is for this reason that he is considered the highest Archangel.
Evolution in contemporary spirituality
As spiritual beliefs and practices developed beyond Kabbalah, Archangel Metatron became a symbol of divine connection, spiritual ascension, and personal guidance.
There are now specific meditative practices and invocations for working with the energy of Metatron (more on this later). These are often associated with meditation on the Metatron's Cube, a powerful geometric symbol. These practices aim to strengthen spiritual connection and balance energies.
What is the role of the Archangel (or Angel) Metatron?
Although his role may vary according to tradition, Metatron is considered the Archangel closest to the Godhead. Its main role is to help souls evolve spiritually and reconnect with their divine essence. Metatron guides souls on their journey toward their true being. It invites them to transcend earthly limitations and open themselves to the higher dimensions of consciousness.
1. Guardian of mysteries and divine teachings: He helps human beings understand the spiritual laws and hidden truths of the universe.
2. Recorder of human actions: It invites human beings to take responsibility and pay attention to their thoughts, words and actions.
3. Powerful spiritual guide: He accompanies human beings on the path of spiritual evolution. It offers guidance and assistance to help individuals overcome challenges, break free from limitations, and rediscover their true spiritual nature.
4. Facilitator of divine communication: It helps establish communication between the divine and human beings. This can result in inspirations or revelations to guide people.
5. Guardian of cosmic order: He thus ensures the cohesion of all creation.
6. Support in healing processes: It is invoked during spiritual and energetic healing practices.
7. Bridge between the divine world and the earthly world: Its presence symbolizes the possibility of transcending material limits and connecting to higher spiritual realities.
If we had to summarize, I would say that primarily Metatron acts as a benevolent guide who can help raise collective consciousness and guide individuals towards spiritual ascension. In this perspective, Metatron is seen as an ally for those seeking to understand their spiritual purpose and realize their full potential.
The symbol of Archangel Metatron: the Cube
The symbol associated with the Archangel Metatron is the famous “Metatron's Cube”. This symbol of sacred geometry is a wave of form with a very powerful vibration rate which is composed of thirteen circles connected to each other, all forming a complex structure.
The Metatron's Cube can be formed from the Fruit of Life symbol, using the intersection points to make the shape geometrically correct. The power of this complex geometric symbol lies in the shapes of the five Platonic solids hidden within it. It contains not only all the Platonic solids, but also the Flower of Life, the Seed of Life and the Merkaba.
Because of its unique structure this symbol is often considered a model of the structure of the universe, which contains the sacred patterns of creation. Each circle and line is seen as representing cosmic laws and energetic forces. The geometric arrangement of circles is also linked to concepts like balance, harmony and the connection between the spiritual and material worlds.
Early Kabbalistic documents say that Metatron formed this “cube” from his soul. Beyond its purely geometric appearance, the cube is a powerful symbol of protection, capable of warding off unwanted influences.
It is also a powerful meditation and healing tool, capable of harmonizing energies and aligning the chakras.
Spiritual uses:
The sacred geometry of Metatron's Cube is used in several spiritual and esoteric contexts:
• Meditation: by meditating on the Metatron's Cube (on a printed canvas for example, or on a harmonizing disc) you can develop your perceptions, have more subtle energies, and harmonize your chakras. You can imagine the Cube in 3 dimensions in front of you and activate it inside you.
• Healing: The Metatron's Cube can be used in energy healing and chakra realignment practices. And that’s good because we have it available in all the chakra colors!
• Spiritual Activation: It is also used as a spiritual activation tool, which helps to awaken consciousness, stimulate intuition and access higher states of perception.
• Protection: in essence it is a symbol of protection which creates a positive energy field and which wards off negative energies. You can also invoke Metatron to create protection within and around you. I'll tell you more right after.
The Metatron's Cube is a complex geometric symbol with a high vibrational rate. You can use it in many ways and even carry it with you. While some see it as a key to unlocking hidden knowledge, others see it as a means of balance and inner growth.
