According to religious tradition, there are 7 "Guardian" angels. Barachiel is the forth cache placed in the series based on these seven angels.
Barachiel means “Blessings of God” and is also known as the “Angel of Lightening”. One non-canonical book, an ancient Jewish text, describes the archangel Barachiel as one of the angels who serve as great and honored angelic princes in heaven. It mentions that Barachiel leads 496,000 other angels who work with him. It is believed that Barachiel is part of the seraphim class of angels who guard God's throne, as well as the leader of all the guardian angels who work with humans during their earthly lifetimes. Other spellings of this angel’s name include Barchiel, Baraqiel, Barkiel, Barbiel, Barakel, Baraqel, Pachriel, and Varachiel.
Each of the 8 caches in this series will be located on a guardrail somewhere near the Union, Washington, St. Clair area (thus the name “GUARDian Angels"). Each one of the first seven angel caches will contain a gold number which you will need to write down, along with the corresponding angel name, in order to solve the final and eighth cache in the series called, "The Celestial City". The final should be published on Christmas Day or soon after. Hopefully this series will add a little fun to the general dislike of guardrail caches!
Parking for this cache is directly across the street about a 100’ away. Cache is wheel-chair accessible, but I would be very careful crossing the street in a wheel chair. Please BYOP!
