If you are new to my page and are wondering what this is all about, please see my article here. Remember that though the psalms are of the Christian faith in origin, the Angelic realm transcends religion.

Astrology
Mars is the Domicile Lord. The Sun is the Exalted Lord.
Saturn is the bound lord through this Quinance.
Venus is the Decan ruler.
25° to 27° 29” is the 12th Part of Aquarius, Domicile Lord Saturn. 27° 30” to 29° 59” is the 12th Part of Pisces Domicile Lord Jupiter.
My Thoughts
It seems fitting that in a decan ruled by Venus, we have an Angel who looks to help those seeking love and romance, fame and fortune, and all the other delights for which we look to the Goddess of Sensuality.
This is a psalm for those seeking help in times of need and who have been oppressed to find a peaceful place to settle and prosper while their enemies are smitten. Quite apt then for Venus and Mars as a combination. Peace is often won at a cost, as we often see around us.
When looking at astrological combinations, there is a good mix of planetary energies depending on the degree to which your planet, ascendant, etc., falls.
If we look at the Bound Lord and the 25°-27° 29” 12th part, Saturn is looking for the longevity of the energy; therefore, asking for a long-lasting relationship or lengthy and renowned career comes under this angel’s care.
When we get to the last 2.5° of the sign, Jupiter adds the aura of generosity and wealth.
This psalm does not offer all of this for free. There is work to do and fights to be fought. Angelic assistance comes to those who are willing to put in the work. After all, it is no good to ask for the ideal partner to cross your path if you never step outside your front door.
Tarot
Four of Wands - Completion (Covers this and the previous Quinance)
Looking at the tarot card that covers this and the following quinance, it is no surprise that Venus rules the Decan. How Venusian the scene, clearly a celebration is taking place; it is often depicted as a wedding in many decks.
Lelahel is an angel who can help bring about the stability of a long-term relationship, and that is part of the story here. The steadiness of the four wands placed in a square creates a structure. However, I often think of four walls, too, and depending on where the four wands lie in the spread, there is a finality to this scene.
Not everyone who marries does so willingly. Not all four-walled rooms are safe havens. When in need of being released from a situation, we are no longer happy; Completion, as Crowley named this card, could be the celebration at the end of a difficult situation as much as the beginning of a new chapter.
For the first time, as we witness our celebrants behind the stage here in the Rider-Waite-Smith deck, the suit of wands disconnects from the person. The people in the scene do not need to hold up the wands; they stand alone.
From the three wands where our person was looking out wistfully toward the future, here we have the safety of the city and the townsfolk looking over our scene; it is mediaeval suburbia if you will! But how long does that security and feeling of happiness last once you are in the day-to-day drudgery of life? Suddenly, Completion can look like imprisonment if you let it. So, a happy scene of wedded bliss or a celebration after a divorce? Well, you decide! What is certain is that nothing lasts forever, and if we feel hemmed in, we can start to feel the need to break out.
This then leads on to the frustration we see in our next set of wand cards, beginning with the five of wands at Leo Decan One!
