In Christian Gnosticism, the 7 archangels are Gabriel, Raphel, Barachiel, Michael, Uriel, Sealtiel, and Jehudiel.
Note that the the First Book of Enoch lists seven, but three are different - Remiel, Raguel, and Sargael take the place of Barachiel, Sealtiel, and Jehudiel.

Do the seven Archangels relate to the days of the week?
7 is an important number in Judaism representing wholeness and completeness - so it probably isn't coincidental that there are 7 archangels and 7 days (and 7 Noahide commandments etc.). Some orthodox churches link the archangels with days of the week, but there doesn't seem to be much of a reason behind that.

What are the basic laws for gnostic religion?
Most gnostic sects were Christian, although arguably there were some Judaic gnostic sects, including the early period of the Sethians. The early Gnostics do not appear to have called themselves 'Gnostics', considering themselves simply as Christians. In fact, there was quite a diversity of early gnostic Christian sects and it can be quite difficult to define the common threads that really identified a sect as 'gnostic' rather than what we would now consider 'orthodox'. Scholars generally agree that the defining characteristic of gnostic Christianity was that salvation was to be gained by knowledge, rather than by forgiveness of sins. Individual sects had their own specific ethical laws and their own interpretation of the scriptures, although adherents were encouraged to extend their personal knowledge.

Who are the four archangels in judaism?
Only Michael is specifically referred to in the Bible as an 'archangel'....Jude 1 v9, 1 Thessalonians 4 v16. (Other traditions and the apocryphal books regard others as archangels, namely Gabriel, Uriel and Raphael with many more in Greek Orthodoxy). In the Bible, Gabriel, the angel who announced the birth of Christ in the Bible, is labelled simply as an 'angel' rather than an 'archangel'. Some believe that by reading scriptures we learn that Michael is actually Jesus, Michael is Jesus' heavenly name, that Jehovah (Psalm 83:18) gave him. However, this is speculation and not borne out in scripture at all.
