The 57th of the 72 genii, of the choir of Archangels. Its attribute: “Praiseworthy God”.

Genius of the body	25 December – 29 December — for those born within these five days
Genius of the morals	15 May, 26 July, 6 October, 17 December, 27 February — for those born on one of these five days
Genius of the soul	18:40 – 19:00 — for those born within these twenty minutes; this is also the hour of invocation
People and divine name	the Cyrenians : Popa
Verse to be spoken	Qui timent Dominum speraverunt in Domino: adjutor eorum et protector eorum est. (Psalm 113, verse 9, Vulgate numbering)
It is invoked	to prosper in all things, and to free prisoners.
It rules	great captains, admirals and generals.
The person born under this influence	… will love the military life; will be noted for activity, bravery and greatness of soul.
The contrary genius	… rules treason; sways faint-hearted men.

What Lenain prescribes

To address a genius, Lenain asks that its name, its attributes and its verse be spoken during the twenty minutes of its reign. He adds silence about what is asked, a favourable moment and a talisman: see what the genii are for, and how they are invoked. We report the prescription as written in 1823; we promise no effect.

Find my three genii Get the report of my three genii
