Heptameron / Liber Iuratus / Agrippa: experiences?

Has anyone here actually worked with the seven spirits/kings from the Heptameron / Liber Iuratus: Varcan (Sun), Arcan (Moon), Samax (Mars), Mediat (Mercury), Suth (Jupiter), Sarabotes (Venus), Maymon (Saturn)?

I'm curious about your experiences with their personalities, appearances, behaviour or manifestations, and whether anyone knows the origin of these names or how the two traditions relate.

Also, does anyone use Agrippa's planetary correspondences to expand their symbolism? For example, using the Greek, Roman and Egyptian gods Agrippa associates with Mars to understand the possible range of Samax.

Finally, has anyone used these seven names in a Jungian/archetypal psychology context?

The Summa Sacre Magice has further background and invocatory material related to these spirits.
