The term Holy Guardian Angel was possibly coined either by Abraham of Worms a German Cabalist who wrote a book on ceremonial magick during the 15th century or Samuel Liddell MacGregor Mathers the founder of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn who later translated this manuscript and elaborated on this earlier work giving it extensive magical notes but the original concept goes back to the Zoroastrian Arda Fravaš (‘Holy Guardian Angels’).[citation needed] In Mathers’ publication of The Book of the Sacred Magic of Abramelin the Mage he writes: If thou shalt perfectly observe these rules all the following Symbols and an infinitude of others will be granted unto thee by thy Holy Guardian Angel; thou thus living for the Honour and Glory of the True and only God for thine own good and that of thy neighbour.
