This pentacle and its description are contained only in Mich. 276 and Aub. 24. Obviously this is some version of "Sigillum Dei Aemeth". Mathers's edition gives instead the Great Pentacle of Solomon from Lansdowne 1202 and 1203 (see page &) with the following note: “This is the Secret Figure of Solomon. It appears in only two manuscripts (Lansdowne 1202 and 1203). It is given by Eliphas Levi in ​​his work “The Doctrine and Ritual of High Magic” and by Tycho Brahe in his “Calendarium Naturale Magicum”, but in both cases without Hebrew words and letters (probably because it turned out to be impossible to make out them due to distortions introduced illiterate scribes). After much work and careful study of this figure, I came to the conclusion that the words inside the symbol stand for the ten Sephiroth, arranged in the form of the Tree of Life, to the right and left of which is the name of Solomon; the signs arranged in a circle are the twenty-two letters of the Hebrew alphabet. Thus, I restored all the inscriptions contained in this figure. The secret figure of Solomon is depicted on the frontispiece of both mentioned manuscripts."

- Note J. Peterson.

"Sigillum Dei Aemeth" ("Seal of the God of Truth") is a Kabbalistic seal first depicted in a 14th-century grimoire. "Liber iuratus" and became famous thanks to the works of John Dee, an English occultist of the 16th century.

"Calendarium Naturale Magicum Perpetuum" ("Eternal magic calendar") - a selection of calendar engravings with magical correspondences, first published in 1620. The creator of the Calendar was actually Johann Baptist Großschedel (1577 - after 1630), but, according to him, the work used calendars compiled by Tycho Brahe.

The pentacles are not numbered in the manuscripts, and only in the Lansdowne manuscripts 1202 and 1203 are most of them distributed by planets. This pentacle is given in Agrippa's Occult Philosophy (Book III, Chapter XI). In Aub. 24, Add. 10862 and Mich. 276 it is also placed first in the row of pentacles, and in W. 4670 it is seventeenth. The third divine name in the manuscripts is distorted and in most cases is given in the form IRAH; there are variants IZAH, IVAH and IARL. A version of this pentacle is also given in the Grimoire of Pope Honorius (1800). - Note J. Peterson.

The Hebrew letters inside the square are the four great four letter names of God:יהוה – Yod, Heh, Vav, Heh;אדני - Adonai; ייאי - Iiai) (this name has the same numerical value as the name El) andאהיה - Eheye. The Hebrew saying surrounding the square is taken from Ps. 71:9: “The inhabitants of the desert will fall before him, and his enemies will lick the dust” [“Posuerunt in caelum os suum et lingua eorum transivit in terra”]. - Note S.L. Mathers.

In Agrippa (op. cit.), this pentacle contains another saying and is described as follows: “...Rabbi Hamai in his “Book of Speculation” [“Sefer Ha-Iyun”, XIII century] gives<…>sacred seal,<…>effective against any human ailments and against all sorrows. On its front side there are four names of God, inscribed in square cells, from top to bottom, and the inscription in the ring around them reveals their meaning [יהוה אלהיכו יהוה אכד , “IHVH our God is IHVH one,” Mark. 12:29]. On the reverse side is the seven-letter name Ararita and in the ring around it is its interpretation, namely, the verse from which this name is extracted [אחד ראש אחותו ראש ייחורו תמורתו אחד , “one is the beginning of His unity, one is the beginning of His personality, one is His transformation”]. This seal must be cut from the purest gold or virgin parchment, pure, untouched and unsullied, and the inscriptions must be made with ink made specifically for this purpose from the smoke of consecrated wax candles or incense [i.e., from the soot formed when candles or incense burn] with holy water; and if the performer of this desires for the seal to certainly acquire its divine power, he must be pure and purified by sacrifice, and his hope must be unshakable, his faith must be firm, and his mind must be elevated to the Most High.”

This pentacle is in second place in Mich. 276 and Aub. 24, on the third - in Sloane 1307, on the thirtieth - in Add. 10862 and on the eighteenth in W. 4670. In Sloane 1307 the SATOR square is filled with Latin letters. - Note J. Peterson.

This is the famous square:

The most perfect arrangement of letters of all known double acrostics. It is mentioned several times in medieval magical texts, but until now only very, very few people knew that it comes from this pentacle. It immediately strikes the eye that this is the square of the number five, consisting of twenty-five letters, which, when added to one, give twenty-six - the numerical value of יהוה. The Hebrew saying surrounding the square is taken from Ps. 71:8: “He will possess from sea to sea and from the river to the ends of the earth” [“Et dominabitur a mari usque ad mare et a flumine usque ad terminos orbis terrarum”]. In the original this verse also consists of twenty-five letters, and its total numerical value (including the final letters), when added to the number of the name Elohim, is exactly equal to the numerical value of the twenty-five letters composing the given square. - Note S.L. Mathers.

For the SATOR square, see also note. & on page &. The exact origin and age of this letter square are unknown, but, one way or another, it began to be used for magical purposes no later than the 1st century BC. - long before the first pentacles of this pattern appeared.

This pentacle is in third place in Add. 10862 and Mich. 276, on the sixth - in Aub. 24 and on the nineteenth - in W. 4670. The names are written everywhere in Latin letters. - Note J. Peterson.

The signs at the ends of the rays of this mystical wheel are the magical signs of Saturn. Around the circle are the names of the angels: Omeliel, Anachiel, Arauchiah and Anazachia, written in Hebrew letters. - Note S.L. Mathers.

This pentacle is in second place in Add. 10862, on the fifth - in Aub. 24 and on the twentieth in W. 4670. In Sloane 1307 the same verse from the psalm is used in the tenth pentacle, but with a different image within the circle. - Note J. Peterson.

The Hebrew words surrounding the triangle are from Deut. 6:4: “Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord.” The saying written in a circle is taken from Ps. 108:18: “Let him be clothed with the curse as with a robe, and let it enter like water into his bowels and like oil into his bones.” ossibus eius"]. In the center of the pentacle is the secret letter Yod. - Note S.L. Mathers.

This pentacle is in twenty-eighth place in Add. 10862 and on the thirteenth - in W. 4670. - Note J. Peterson.

The Hebrew letters in the corners between the arms of the cross spell out the name Yod-He-Vav-He. The letters in the corners of the square are the name Eloa. On the four sides of the square are written the names of the angels: Arehanah, Rahaniel, Roelhaiphar and Noaphiel. The saying inscribed in the outer ring is taken from Deut. 10:17: “God is great, strong and terrible” [“Deus magnus et potens, et terribilis”]. - Note S.L. Mathers.

This pentacle is in twenty-ninth place in Add. 10862, on the thirty-fourth - in Aub. 24 and on the fourteenth - at W. 4670. At Aub. 24 states that this pentacle should be “all black,” and in Add. 10862 - “red” [i.e. colors of Mars]. - Note J. Peterson.

This pentacle is made up of the secret signs of Saturn. Along the circumference is written in Hebrew: “Set the wicked over him, and let the devil stand at his right hand” [Ps. 108:6, "Constitue super eum impium et Satan astet a dextris eius"]. - Note S.L. Mathers.

This pentacle is in thirty-first place in Add. 10862. - Note J. Peterson.

Inside the pentacle are the names of the nine angelic orders. Six of them are written in ordinary Hebrew letters, the rest in letters of the alphabet known as "Passing the River." These nine ranks are: 1. HAYOT HA-KADOSH (חיות הקדוש ), “holy animals”; 2. OFANIM (אופנים ), "wheels"; 3. ARALIM (אראלים ), "thrones"; 4. HASHMALIM (חסמלים ), "shining"; 5. SERAPHIM (שרפים ), "fiery"; 6. MALAKIM (מלכים ), "kings"; 7. ELOHIM (אלהים ), "gods"; 8. BENI ELOHIM (בני אלהים ), "sons of Elohim"; 9. KERUBIM (כרובים ), "cherubim". The saying is taken from Ps. 17:8: “The earth shook and was shaken, the foundations of the mountains trembled and moved, for [God] was angry.” - Note S.L. Mathers.

"Passing the River", also known by the Latin name "Transitus Fluvii", is an occult alphabet consisting of 22 letters and derived from the Hebrew alphabet (see table on page &). Described in Agrippa's Occult Philosophy (Book III, Chapter 30). The name presumably goes back to the Old Testament legend about the return of the Jews from Babylonian captivity - to the episode with the crossing of the Euphrates River, which was followed by the restoration of the Jerusalem temple.

This pentacle is in fifth place in Add. 10862, on the seventh - in Aub. 24 and on the fifteenth - at W. 4670. - Note J. Peterson.

This pentacle is made up of the secret signs of Jupiter. Around it are written the names of angels in Hebrew: Netoniel, Devachiah, Tzedeqiah and Parasiel. - Note S.L. Mathers.

This pentacle is in fourth place in Add. 10862, on the eighth - in Aub. 24 and on the sixteenth - at W. 4670. At Aub. 24 and Add. 10862 it is said that it should be depicted with the blood of a bat (lat. noctula, it. noctula), and in French manuscripts - owls (fr. chouette). Since in Latin the common name for a bat is vespertilio, this may mean that the French version is a translation from Latin rather than Italian. In Aub. 24 added an indication that this pentacle can be engraved on metal. - Note J. Peterson.

In the center of the hexagram are the letters of the nameאהיה , Eheje, in its upper and lower corners are the letters of the nameאב , Ab (“Father”), in the remaining corners are the letters of the name Yod-He-Vav-He. I believe that the letters placed around the hexagram, at obtuse angles, refer to the first two words of Ps. 111: 3: “Abundance and wealth are in his house, and his righteousness endures forever” [“Gloria et divitiae in domo eius et iustitia eius manet in saeculum saeculi”; the same verse is used in the fourth pentacle of Jupiter]. - Note S.L. Mathers.

This pentacle is in twenty-sixth place in Add. 10862, on the twenty-second - in Aub. 24, on the first - at W. 4670 and on the sixth - at Sloane 1307. - Note J. Peterson.

In the upper left corner is the magical seal of Jupiter with the letters of the name Yod-He-Vav-He. In the remaining corners there is the seal of the Mind of Jupiter, as well as the names ADONAI and Yod-He-Vav-He. The inscription in a circle is Ps. 124:1: “He who trusts in the Lord, like Mount Zion, shall not be moved: he abides forever” [“Qui confidunt in Domine sicut mons Sion non commovebitur in aeternum qui habitat”]. - Note S.L. Mathers.

The magical seal and seal (or rather, sigil) of the mind of Jupiter, bearing the name Jophiel (יופיאל ), derived from the magic square of Jupiter (4 x 4), as described in Agrippa's Occult Philosophy (Book II, Chapter XXII).

This pentacle is in twenty-seventh place in Add. 10862, on the twenty-fifth - in Aub. 24, on the second - at W. 4670 and on the eighth - at Sloane 1307. - Note J. Peterson.

Above the magic symbol is the nameיה , I. Below it are the names of the angels: Adoniel (אדניאל ) and Bariel ( בריאל ); letters last name[also] surround a square divided into four parts. The inscription in a circle is Ps. 111:3: "Abundance and wealth are in his house, and his righteousness endures forever" ["Gloria et divitiae in domo eius et iustitia eius manet in saeculum saeculi", the same verse used in the second pentacle of Jupiter]. - Note S.L. Mathers.

According to classical astrology, in the sign of Cancer, Jupiter is in exaltation - one of its strongest positions. Since Jupiter's orbital period is just under 12 years, suitable periods for making this pentacle do not occur very often, but last about a year.

This pentacle is in sixth place in Add. 10862, on the twenty-ninth - in Aub. 24 and on the third - at W. 4670. - Note J. Peterson.

The Hebrew letters inside the pentacle are taken from five last words verse written in a circle, each of which has five letters. These letters are redistributed in a new way and form some secret names. The verse itself is taken from Ezek. 1:1: “While I was among the exiles by the river Chebar, the heavens were opened, and I saw visions of God [Elohim]” [“Cum essem in medio captivorum iuxta fluvium Chobar, aperti sunt caeli, et vidi visiones Dei”]. In my opinion, the inscription should consist only of the last five words of this verse; In this way, it will be possible to avoid the anachronistic juxtaposition between the mention of Jacob using this pentacle and the saying from the Book of the Prophet Ezekiel. - Note S.L. Mathers.

This pentacle is in seventh place in Add. 10862 and on the fourth - in W. 4670. - Note J. Peterson.

The four names inscribed in the sleeves of the cross are Seraph (שרף ), Kerub ( כרוב ), Ariel ( אריאל ) and Tharsis ( תרסיש ), four rulers of the elements. The saying going around is Ps. 21:16-17: “They pierced my hands and my feet. One could count all my bones” [“Foderunt manus meas et pedes meos: dinumeraventur omnia ossa mea”]. - Note S, L. Mathers.

The names of the four rulers of the elements are given by Agrippa (Occult Philosophy, Book III, Chapter XXIV): “There are also [angels] corresponding to the elements, namely: Air - Cherub, Water - Tharsis, Earth - Ariel (Ariel), Fire - Seraph (Seruph) or, according to Philo, Nathaniel. In later occult classifications, Kerub is often associated with Earth, and Ariel with Air.

This pentacle stands in thirty-third place in Aub. 24. - Note J. Peterson.

Secret signs of Jupiter and Ps. 112:7-8: “From the dust he raises up the poor, from clay he lifts up the needy, to make him sit with princes, with the princes of his people.” sui"]. - Note S.L. Mathers.

This pentacle is in the twenty-fourth place in Add. 10862, on the ninth - in Aub. 24 and on the sixth - at W. 4670. - Note J. Peterson.

Inside the pentacle are the secret signs of Mars; the names of four angels are written around the circle in Hebrew: Madimiel (מאדימיאל ), Bartsakhia ( ברצחיה ), Ashiel ( אשיאל ) and Ithuriel [Atavriel?] (אתאוריאל ). - Note S.L. Mathers.

This pentacle is given in Harley 3981, but in the manuscripts Mich, 276, Add. 10862, Sloane 3091, Lansdowne 1202, Kings 288, Aub. 24 and W. 4670 it is missing. - Note J. Peterson.

The letter Xe is placed in each corner of the hexagram. Inside the hexagram are the names Yod-He-Vav-He, Yeheshua (יהשוה, secret Jewish name Yeshua, or Jesus, formed from the ordinary Yod-He-Vav-He by introducing into it the letter Shin, symbolizing the Spirit) and Elohim. The inscription in a circle is In. 1:4: “In Him was life, and the life was the light of men” [“In ipso vita erat et vita erat lux hominum”]. Theoretically, this can be taken as evidence that the initial mystical verses of the Gospel of John belong to a deeper antiquity than is commonly believed. - Note S.L. Mathers.

This pentacle is in tenth place and in Add. 10862, and in Aub. 24. - Note J. Peterson.

Letters of the names Eloa ( אלה ) and Shaddai ( שדי ). In the center is the large letter Vav, the sign of the Kabbalistic Microprosopus. In a circle - Ps. 76:14: “Who is God so great as God (Elohim) [our]!” - Note S.L. Mathers.

This pentacle is in eighth place in Add. 10862, on the thirty-first - in Aub. 24 and on the thirty-second - at W. 4670. - Note J. Peterson.

There is a word around the image of a scorpionהול . In a circle - Ps. 90:13: “You will step on the asp and the basilisk. You will trample upon the lion and the dragon" ["Siper aspidem et basiliscum ambulabis et conculcabis leonem et draconem"]. - Note S.L. Mathers.

Word הול means "fear", which is consistent with the purpose of this pentacle.

Around the eight rays inside the pentacle are the words inscribed in the secret alphabet of Malachim, or angelic script.אלהים קבר , Elohim keber, which means “Elohim covered (or protected).” In a circle - Ps. 36:15: “Their sword will enter into their own heart, and their bows will be broken” [“Gladius eorum intret in corda ipsorum et arcus ipsorum confringarur”]. - Note S.L. Mathers.

This pentacle is in twelfth place in Add. 10862 and on the thirty-sixth - in Aub. 24. The inscriptions around the square, in the letters "Passing the River", are variously distorted in different manuscripts, but in all likelihood should form the phraseאתה גביר לעלם אדני (“Ate Gibor le-Olam Adonai” - “You, O Lord, are strong forever”), from which the divine name Agla is derived. - Note J. Peterson.

The names of the spirits are written in the letters "Crossing the River". In a circle - Ps. 90: 11–12: “For he will command his angels concerning you, to guard you in all your ways: in their hands they will bear you up” [“Quoniam angelis suis mandabit de te ut custodiant te in omnibus viis tuis in minibus portabunt te”]. - Note S.L.

Along the circumference are Ps. 68:24: “Let their eyes be darkened, so that they cannot see, and let their loins be relaxed forever” [“Obscurentur oculi eorum ne videant et dorsum eorum semper incurva”] – and Ps. 134: 16: “They have eyes, but they do not see” [“Oculos habent et non videbunt”]. - Note S.L.

The Pentacle of Solomon is a witchcraft design that resembles a seal. It is believed that the pentacle can fulfill any desire and protect its owner from evil forces. The pentacle is made by an experienced sorcerer on paper with a pen, drawn on leather or engraved on metal. In ancient times, the power of the pentacle was revealed to King Solomon by an angel. An angel taught him how to form a pentacle, so during his reign he was the wisest and richest.

From Greek - Solomon's pentacle - a pentagon of regular shape. The very first pentacles are five pointed stars, drawn on clay in ancient times. There were two meanings, the pentacle protected people, having the mystical power of the pentagram, and for people with special power the pentacle was the personification of power
over the whole world. Therefore, such signs in ancient times were often found on royal seals. Nowadays, of course, this is more protection from dark forces, from causing damage and the evil eye. The pentacle is also used by magicians to heal people and to cleanse energy passages.

The thing is that in the human body there are seven subtle centers through which energy from the outside passes - these centers are called chakras. When some evil, black force tries to penetrate the body and consciousness of a person, it passes precisely through these subtle centers - chakras. The chakras become clogged, and then we talk about damage, curses and the evil eye. Experienced magicians cleanse chakras using special rituals and often use the Pentacle of Solomon they have compiled in these rituals. Sometimes, in order to protect the cleaned chakras, a pentacle needs to be worn in the place where the blockage was. Indian magicians and healers make pentacles for all chakras and draw symbols denoting them. Below we will look at how one or another pentacle of Solomon is made.

A pentacle is prepared from the metals of the cosmic planets at a certain time for each planet, or from clay. After production, they are fumigated with herbs from cosmic planets.

The first pentacle of Solomon, the pentacle of Saturn, will correspond to chakram number one, which is located in the coccyx area. Lead is the metal of Saturn, so the pentacle will be made of this metal. In the middle is a lotus with four petals, and in the lotus we will draw a square in which the corresponding letter - “ka” - the sign of this letter will be like this. If this pentacle is made from clay, it will be colored brown. You need to fumigate it with the sound “lam”.

The second pentacle of Solomon corresponds to chakram number two, which in men passes between the testicles and penis, and in women a little higher than the vagina, this chakram is responsible for the function of the genital organs and the ability to have children. Jupiter rules this center of energy, so the pentacle is made of tin. They depict a lotus with six petals, draw a circle in the middle and the letter “va” in the circle. Clay pentacle - blue color, fumigate with the sound “you”.

The third chakram is located where the solar plexus is, it is responsible for providing energy for life, as it provides assistance for the digestion of food. They are guided by the power of Mars. The pentacle is cast from iron. Draw ten petals on a lotus with a circle in the middle, inside the circle is a triangle with the crown down. The letter in the triangle is “ta” – . The clay pentacle is painted red. Fumigate with the sound “ram”.

The fourth center is the heart, responsible for its work, the planet Venus is responsible for this chakram. The pentacle is cast from copper. Lotus with twelve petals. Inside is a circle, and inside the circle is a star with six ends, in the middle of the star is the letter “ya” - . A pentacle made of green clay, fumigated with the sound “yam”.

The fifth pentacle of Solomon, corresponds to the center, is located in the middle of the neck, is responsible for hearing and voice, obeys the power of the planet Mercury. Such a pentacle is prepared from clay, using a small jug in which a small amount of mercury is placed. Or solid mercury is taken for production. The drawing is a lotus with sixteen petals and a circle inside, in the middle of the circle is a crescent moon, the letter “ha” is written, fumigate with the sound “ham”.

The sixth pentacle of Solomon is made for the chakra, which is located in the middle of the forehead, responsible for vision and sense of smell. This energy center is repaired to the Moon and cast from silver. They draw a lotus with two petals and put the letter “am”. A clay pentacle is painted with silver paint. Fumigate with the sound “aum”.

The seventh Pentacle of Solomon is made of gold because it is made for the center, which is responsible for thinking and is located in the middle of the skull at the top. This center is ruled by the Sun. The design is a thousand lotus petals, with a circle in the middle. If the pentacle is made of clay, then it is painted gold. They fumigate with the sound “sam-la-a.”

It must be said that each religion has its own rules for depicting pentacles. There is the pentacle of the New Testament, there is the pentacle of Solomon and there are 47 of them, there are Indian ones (we looked at them above), there are Jewish ones, etc. The main thing is that the pentacle, when made by a magician, is endowed with great mystical power, and the belief that the pentacle of Solomon will bring good luck to a person’s life and will not allow evil spirits to attack.

May joy and goodness come to me from the north, from the west, from the south, and from the east! As the movement of the wind turns into strength, so may my wealth increase and strengthen! Amen!".

With these words, you need to put a magnet on a clean plate, without any drawings. Place the plate to the left of the candles.

The magnet must be properly prepared before the ceremony: first it must lie in the ground for three days, then under a running stream for three hours. cold water. After this, it must be thoroughly rubbed with juniper oil and smoked with jasmine flowers.

Any magical amulet or talisman has a certain power and carries a number of possibilities. Such characteristics differ from character to character and depend on many factors. One of the most mysterious and mystical amulets of the past and our days is the seal of Solomon. For a long time, such an amulet was endowed with the most unusual abilities, including control of otherworldly forces.

The meaning of Solomon's seal

Externally, this talisman looks like a star with six equal rays, so the seal of Solomon is also known as the Star of David, but this talisman derives its main name from the name of the famous king.

History says that a similar key symbol was carved on Solomon’s magic ring and helped him control several dozen demonic creatures from the other world. These creatures were enslaved by the mighty king and controlled by him precisely with the help of the pentacle on the ring. There is information that Solomon managed to accomplish most of his discoveries and achievements with the help of these demons.

In addition, this magical key ring won Solomon the recognition of the masses and helped him win many battles on the battlefield. It also provided him with wealth.

Summoning and controlling otherworldly creatures is still attributed to the seal of Solomon. Without this symbol, not a single session of spiritualism or black magic among professional witches is complete.

But this amulet also has its power for uninitiated people, although it will carry a slightly different meaning:

• It will protect its owner from any external evil, both on the physical and energetic levels.
• With the constant use of the Seal of Solomon, a powerful energy barrier is created in a person, which does not allow magic and witchcraft to pass through.
• The power of this talisman will be enough to help you get rid of any addictions.
• Will bring contentment, prosperity and wealth to your home.
• Thanks to its unusual angular shape, it concentrates cosmic energy, which then successfully replenishes your inner strength.
• Helps to determine the true path of life and not stray from it.
• Strengthens and increases your overall health.
• Ensures that people around you begin to treat you with more respect and listen to your words.
• Has the ability to strengthen knowledge and better assimilate new material.

Such a broad meaning of the Seal of Solomon makes this talisman a truly very powerful symbol, the use of which should be approached very carefully by ignorant people.

In modern practice, the seal of Solomon as a talisman is often applied to various household items or even used as tattoos. The latter is especially important for people in dangerous professions, since such a tattoo can successfully protect them from any troubles.

If you make such an amulet from gold, it will provide you with wealth.

Features of the Seal of Solomon

As mentioned above, a similar amulet has another name: the Star of David. This amulet's name is due to its appearance in the form of a six-pointed star.

But there is another name for the seal of Solomon, which carries a hidden meaning: the pentacle. This word of Latin origin has the translation “small image,” and indeed, the symbol of Solomon’s seal is depicted on various objects, but everywhere it carries a certain power.

In order for the pentacle to have the greatest power, it should be depicted strictly on certain days, which are determined by planetary subordination. This is necessary, since the pentacle itself also has a planetary connection and is controlled by a strictly defined planet.

But this symbol also received its main name - the seal of Solomon - for a reason. In magical practice, the word “seal” means “signature” or “key” and is used accordingly. With the help of such an amulet, a person strengthens his spells, giving them his own energy. In addition, magical seals have different characters and are attributed to a certain type of otherworldly beings: angels, demons or demons. With the help of such a seal, you can control these creatures, summon them and give some orders, but such manipulations are subject only to very powerful magicians who are capable of endowing such seals with special power.

DIY Solomon's Seal

The Pentacle of Solomon, like any other magical talisman, can be easily made with your own hands, but given the power of the item being created, it is necessary to approach the process itself very carefully, having studied all possible information on this topic.

You will not find specific master classes on creating the Seal of Solomon, since this process is individual for each person. You yourself must feel when and from what you will get the most powerful amulet. Your attitude at this moment is also very important: no extraneous thoughts, especially negative ones, are allowed, they will easily fall on the amulet being made. You should clear your mind and focus completely on the magic being performed. If you feel like you're not doing well today, give it up and reschedule for another day.

However, it is strictly necessary to adhere to the general rules established for this procedure. They will help you avoid unpleasant surprises and make your talisman the most powerful:

• Choose those days when the month is in its waxing phase and at the same time enters Virgo’s house.
• Use dried raisins, dates and aloe as incense, including for flavoring the finished amulet.
• The day of the week on which the ritual will be performed will help you endow the Seal of Solomon with exactly the power that you need to realize a specific goal.
• If you need an amulet so that people around you begin to appreciate and respect you, then choose Monday.
• The talisman, created on Tuesday, will help healthcare workers realize their dreams.
• To strengthen your inner potential and promote intellectual abilities, make a pentacle on Wednesday.
• The amulet created on Thursday will help solve all issues related to charity and wealth.
• For artistic people, the amulet is created on Friday.
• But the Sunday pentacle will open the gates for you career growth and achievements of power.
• On Saturday, the ritual to create a seal is not performed.
• Choose gold material if you want to get real wealth.

If you do not have the opportunity to make a pentacle with your own hands, then purchase it on the chosen day in accordance with the established goals and consecrate it with the power of your thought.
