I started from a Jewish and Islamic framework initially. Those religions have a rather complex angelology that deals with figures who aren't mention in Christian scriptures. Sufi writings tend to deal with angels, as does Kabbalah. I'm afraid I can't recommend any good sources, it's been a while since I looked into that sort of thing.

My go-to introductory Kabbalah book is The Essential Kabbalah: The Heart of Jewish Mysticism, by Daniel C. Matt. It's as concise as such a book can reasonably be, engaging, and presented clearly from a Jewish standpoint.

Anyway, I'd love to know if anyone has any experience in cross-pantheon or mixed-faith shrines. Heck, if you're the total opposite I'd love to hear your thoughts on the matter as well.  ;D

I have a small shrine for Hanuman and Thor, my strength gods, separate from my main Hindu shrine.
