The Primordial Angels or Archai (from {{ELSalt|ἀρχή]] arché "beginning", "principle", "origin"), also called Primordial Forces, Primordial Beginnings, Principalities (Latin principates) or Spirits of Personality, have already completed their humanity stage on Old Saturn. Thus they stand three levels above man in the ranking of spiritual hierarchies. They act through the sphere of Venus. In Gnosis they are called Aeons and as Spirits of Cycles of Time they regulate all rhythmically ordered natural processes. In their totality they form the astral body of the Earth. As Spirits of Time (German: Zeitgeister) they work in association with the conscious development of mankind.
