Greetings,
Image of the Cosmos
(Ficino) Talismans
Will
be assembled on - March
23rd between 5:40-6:00 GMT+3
This Talisman was inspired by the famous renaissance Philosopher and
Astrologer Marsilio Ficino. In his revolutionary work (for his times)
“De Vita” (the Book of Life) published in 1489
where Ficino
synthesises Medicine, Astrology and Magic, In the chapters dealing with
the subject of magical Talismans he suggests a Talisman for the cosmos.
Ficino
realized that the
universe itself is a living being, or in his own words:
“There
will be some men or other, superstitious and blind, who see life plain
in even the lowest animals and the meanest plants, but do not see life
in the heavens or the world ... Now if those little men grant life to
the smallest particles of the world, what folly! what envy! neither to
know that the Whole, in which we live and move and have our being, is
itself alive, nor to wish this to be so”.
I am following
Ficino’s instructions and will assemble and consecrate this
Talisman when the Sun will enter the first minute of Aries, As ficino
explains this is considered the birthday of the world, the beginning of
a new cycle. The Sun in 0 aries is not only an invocation of images of
birth and beginning, it is also entering the sign of its exaltation,
where it is extremely strong (essentially dignified) therefore this is
also a solar Talisman, which has ingrained in it the image of the whole
cosmos as it is inherent in the Sun itself; the powerful Architect and
life generating force of our solar system It is, in a sense, a Talisman
that encapsulates the universal image of birth and life, and it helps
us tune our-self to the generating forces of life as a whole.
The
Talisman is set with traditional stones ruled by the different
planets:
Moon
- Moonstone
Mercury
- Emerald
Venus
- Peridot
Sun
- Pink Tourmaline
Mars
- Amethyst
Jupiter
- Yellow Topaz
Saturn
- Sapphire.
The names of the planets are written in Hebrew,Latin and Arabic.
The outer circle is the Ancient Egyptian glyphs of the zodiac.
7
Metals Chaldean Astrology Talismans (Pendant and Ring)
Will
be assembled on - March 26th 2015 between 13:05-13:50 GMT+3
The
Chaldean order pendant contains the symbols of the 7 stars arranged in
the Chaldean order in the inner circle and the signs of the wheel of
the zodiac in the outer circle. The middle part of the pendant contains
seven metals, iron, lead, pure gold, silver, copper, and brass
(replaces the metal, mercury). The power of the pendant is in the
combination of the seven metals, in which each are connected and
strengthen different qualities of the person in accordance with the
star to which that particular medal is connected.
The Chaldean order connects these qualities according to a flow chart,
in such a way that each one will be its right place in relation to the
other, and in this way it will express its power to its maximum while
maintaining harmony.
The pendant is a very strong protection talisman that has in its power
the ability to bring success and healing to its bearer, along with
supporting his personal development. The beauty of the amulet is that
it suits every person and situation, because it contains all the latent
qualities, and each person uses the ones he needs at a specific time.
Spring
Equinox Talismans
Will be Created on
March 23th 2015 between 11:38-12:05 GMT+3
Made on the time the Sun ingresses into Aries! Invoking the rising
tides of the solar life force, directed action, will power and the
beginning of new and exciting initiatives.
Astronomically speaking, the equinoctial points are the places on the
ecliptic (the Sun’s path) where night and day are of equal
length. This means that the Sun is in the plane of the
Earth’s equator. Astrologically, these are very important
times, where a tremendous shift of energy takes place. The Vernal
Equinox is specifically of great importance, because it marks - 0
degrees Aries which is the beginning of the Tropical Zodiac. It is also
analogous to the rising point in the daily cycle when the Sun crosses
the horizon and marks the beginning of the day, so is the Sun in its
yearly cycle as it begins the year in the vernal equinox.
The 0 Aries point is very potent with life energy, it is the birth
point of the year, reflected by an energetic tidal wave of solar "fire"
rekindling our own inner power and motivation to act. It is not
surprising that the Sun is said to be exalted in this sign.
Note:
This year the Aries ingress of the Sun happens one day after a solar
eclipse in 29° Pisces. Also, in the exact ingress itself the
Moon is conjunct the south node. Both those events, are not very
auspicious for electing the exact 0° Aries Ingress. Due to that
fact we elected a better time, two days later when the Sun is in the
2° of Aries (still in the same dwad- 2.5° ruled by
Aries). After the Moon has entered Taurus, Her own sign of Exaltation!
and close to Venus (the ruler of Taurus) This way both luminaries are
Exalted while still having the thrust of the equinox energy.
The Talisman design is based on an ancient
Assyrian relief of
the Winged Sun or the Sun
Disc which is an ancient symbol of power, life ,light,godhood and
sovereignty.
Venus in
Taurus Talismans
Will
be assembled on - March 23rd 2015 between 13:30-14:25 GMT+3
We are happy to celebrate this new Astrological year with Venus In her
own Sign of Taurus conjunct an Exalted newly born Moon.
Venus is the universal symbol of fertility, beauty, relationships in
general and intimacy in particular. Venus is the expression of our
female aspect, It is harmonizing by nature and helps us create
compatibility, unity and compromise. She characterizes the urge for
connection, for merging, cooperation and flow, for pleasantness,
softness and joy. She is also connected to a well developed esthetic
sense and artistic abilities.
The symbols in this Talisman are astrological symbols of Venus in the
middle of the upper part of the Talisman and beneath the bail you will
be able to recognize the astrological sign of Taurus, while the
seashell is an ancient symbol of Venus.
Thank you for reading
May All Beings Be Happy
