The Third Pentacle of Saturn

Its virtue

This should be made within the Magical Circle, and it is good for use at night when thou invokest the Spirits of the nature of Saturn.

What is written on it

A wheel of eight rays ending in the mystical characters of Saturn, ringed by the names of the angels Omeliel, Anachiel, Arauchiah and Anazachia.

How it is made

• Engrave it in lead on a Saturday, in an hour of Saturn. Made in the planet's metal, it needs no particular colour.
• Or draw it on virgin paper or parchment, exorcised first, in black, the colour of Saturn.
• The material must be new and never used for anything else. Metal is first purified by fire.
• The size is up to you, as long as it is made by the rules. Burn the incense while you work, and be pure in body and mind.
