What is the Shem HaMephorash?
What Is INFLUANCE? The Spiritual Diagnostic Tool Rooted in Kabbalah
Most people who feel anxious, foggy, rageful or spiritually heavy have no language for what is actually happening to them. They reach for medication, distraction or just push through. But within the Kabbalistic tradition there has always been a precise framework for identifying the unseen forces that shape how we feel — and what to do about them.
INFLUANCE is that framework, made accessible for the first time as a free online tool.
How INFLUANCE Works
INFLUANCE is a spiritual diagnostic system built on two ancient pillars: the 72 Goetic spirits of the Lesser Key of Solomon, and their opposing counterparts — the 72 Shem HaMephorash angels derived from Exodus 14:19–21.
The process begins with a single honest question: what weight are you carrying today?
You select the emotion or spiritual state closest to your experience — anxiety and dread, unexplained rage, lethargy and brain fog, obsessive thoughts, isolation, sense of spiritual attack, the evil eye, trauma, or the shadow work that can no longer be avoided.
INFLUANCE then surfaces the specific Goetic spirit most associated with that state. Not as a superstition, but as a named, documented archetype — a pattern of influence that has been recognised and catalogued in Western esoteric tradition for over four centuries.
The system then gives you the opposing Shem HaMephorash angel — the celestial force that, according to the Kabbalistic tradition rooted in Thomas Rudd's 1640s manuscripts, directly binds and counteracts that spirit. And finally, it prescribes the crystal most aligned with that angelic energy — a physical tool you can actually hold.
The Historical Foundation
The pairing of the 72 Goetic demons with 72 Kabbalistic angels is not a modern invention. Thomas Rudd, writing in the 1640s, proposed that the Lesser Key of Solomon was incomplete without the Shem HaMephorash — the angelic system that provided a balancing force for each of the 72 spirits described in the Ars Goetia.
Rudd's work was later used by Samuel Liddell MacGregor Mathers in the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn. The idea is straightforward: every disturbing spiritual influence has a precise celestial counter. The problem was that this knowledge was locked inside rare grimoires, academic papers and expensive occult books.

What Makes INFLUANCE Different
Unlike a tarot reading or an AI chatbot, INFLUANCE does not interpret your situation or generate a response. It is a deterministic lookup system: your emotional input maps to a documented Goetic spirit, which maps to a documented Shem angel, which maps to a specific crystal. The same input always produces the same result. This is by design.
The tool is transparent about its mechanics. It does not pretend to be mystical. It is a structured mirror — a way to name what you are experiencing using a framework that has served practitioners for hundreds of years.
