My Altar, Counterclockwise: Venus, Persephone, Hades, Mercury & My Angel

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genius_%28mythology%29?wprov=sfla1

Yes, I know it's Wikipedia, but still. The idea of the christian Guardian Angel was heavily borrowed (probably from Jewish beliefs of guardian angels as well) but also from the Genius. I think, for the sake of better modern understandment with people who may not know the term "Genius", us using "Angel" is perfectly acceptable, especially as it is a Greek term with only later connections to Christianity.

This is, im assuming this person is calling the Genius an Angel.... Of course if this person actually is worshiping a christian angel however.... Well you do you I guess, don't really understand why tho...
