In
iconography, Barachiel is sometimes shown holding a white
rose against the chest, or with rose petals scattered on the clothing, particularly the cloak. The scattering of rose petals was to symbolize or represent God's sweet blessings showering down on people. Barachiel is also depicted holding a bread basket or a staff, both of which symbolize the blessings of children that God bestows on parents. ==Patronage==
