In Gnosticism, the 7 Archons are malevolent, planet-associated rulers of the material cosmos, created by the ignorant Demiurge, who imprison the divine spark in human souls, acting as jailers over seven planetary spheres (Moon, Mercury, Venus, Sun, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn) that souls must pass through, governed by vices and ignorance, to escape to the spiritual realm. Each Archon, often with animalistic features and Hebrew names like Yaldabaoth (Saklas/Samael), controls a layer of heaven, binding souls with fate, emotions, and delusions until Gnosis (spiritual knowledge) allows liberation.
