Who, or what, would wear a Halo?
Posted By: Metatron <Eagle-117@cox.net>Date: 8/23/04 4:44 p.m.

Yes, I know what the majority of you are thinking: "Not this crap again!" Don't worry, though. This is just an observation, a small one at that, of one of the MANY possible "treats" that can be found in this unusual dictionary I own.

In section A of The Dictionary of Angels/Fallen Angels there is, of course, a list of interesting angels. While the Dictionary of Angels contains thousand of Angels, which are each accompanied by their individual descriptions, this initial section (350 - 400 angels) list and categorizes angels of extreme importance to the spiritual and physical worlds. The Angel of Death would be a good example of a familiar angel listed in this section. One of the interesting things found in this list of “important” angels is that there’s only one angel, which I've ever noticed, who is described as wearing a Halo... The Angel of Time.

The Angel of Time - "The angel of time stands between earth and heaven, clothed in a white robe, with wings of flame and a golden halo around his head... one foot on land, the other on the sea, behind him the sun rising... on his brow the sign of eternity and life: the circle."

Take from that what you wish. I don't intend to give my twisted interpretation on the possible influences of The Dictionary of Angels/Fallen Angels on the Halo universe for a good while. As for this small note from the book, I guess I just enjoy getting under Shishka’s skin;)
